User talk:Daduzi

Leave me a message (I'm currently busy working on some .svg files but will reply when finished)

Hi Daduzi! I know you've been here for ages in a low-level way, but we try to send all new users a "welcome" message and you never got one! So, belatedly...

Welcome!

Hello, Daduzi, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Your edits

Hi, I just came across your edits to BBC and although I assume you didn't mean to, you deleted most of the article, among others the category and the language links. I reverted your edits, but please note that that was in no way an assessment of the quality of your edits to the introduction, as I didn't take a good look at that. Kind regards, --Joanne B 08:57, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blasphemy

You make a good point; I should have looked at the talk page first. For now I've integrated a reference to the cartoons into the body of the paragraph. In a general survey article about blasphemy that's enough, and maybe more than we need if the whole business is forgotten in a few more months. If the article were specifically about Blasphemy in Islam, or if the section on Islam were significantly longer, I'd want to say more about it. I'll watch the talk page; let me know what you think.

Hi. I noticed you stated you were researching information on this article. Just to let you know, I've created the start of an article, so perhaps you could add any additional information you have. (Perhaps his exact date of death). Anyway, byebye Mark272 12:02, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the pat on the back. I hadn't planned on doing an article for his brother, to be honest I'd never heard of him.

Talk page archiving

➨ **ЯEDVERS** awards this Barnstar to **Daduzi** for doing the jobs others (like me!) avoid doing, and therefore improves Wikipedia for everyone.

Thanks for archiving Talk:BBC which was overdue and much needed! ➨ ЯEDVERS 18:57, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BBC references

Hi Daduzi! This is the first article where I've used {{cite}} templates. I usually go for plain text as the flexibility is very useful (and you can give more information than {{cite web}} offers). But if we're aiming for FA and 1.0 status, I thought I should do it "properly" for once! You're right about the {{cite}} templates being contraversial for some people, but sometimes it feels like everything is here! I think that the ability to alter the template globally and the ability for downstream users of Wikipedia articles to decide what, if anything, they do with the references, probably makes for this to be the best choice. Your actual mileage may differ, of course! ➨ ЯEDVERS 14:18, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BBC

Hi Daduzi! Option C looks nicest and is probably the most reader-friendly layout. The cleanest is Option A, but the graphs look a bit, I don't know, detached? Seems to me that graphs and charts should have some body text to go with them, if only to "force" the reader into using the information available. So I vote for "C".

Sorry I didn't realise, I assumed that you were just doing the software ones. Anyhow I am planning to take a wikibreak for a week or so, so I won't be disambiguating for a while.

Football Squad 2 Templates: Long and Short names

If we were making a squad box for a club with a long name, e.g. Clube de Regatas do Flamengo or Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense we would surely prefer to use Flamengo or Gremio rather than their full name.

Template:National squad does this using (I'm pretty sure) {{{title|{{{country}}} squad}}}. Title is the displayed title, country is the default value. (The link goes to the article Country national football team)

Therefore I think it would be possible to add similar code to the FS2 template without ruining the ones already in place.

Let me know what you think. SLUMGUM yap stalk 21:12, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Daduzi - so I update the images with links on my website to prove copyright ownership. All images on the site are in fact copywritten as per a statement on the home page and through the library of congress. Let me know if that is good enough to keep them on there.

BBC

Hi Daduzi!

Yes, I'd been thinking about this. The response from Peer Review was disappointing - a javascript check, a long pause and a closure. I'd thought of reopening it myself, but like you I wondered if we wouldn't just get a javascript check, a long pause and a closure. Again.

The FA idea has real merit, however. AFAIK, this isn't automated. It is soul destroying, but at least it's "real". I know people who have been through the process - they've left, reduced their wikiworkload, exploded in rage... and these are people who have achieved FA! I'm not joking. The process can be oddly like WP:RfA - a judgement of the person requesting rather than of the facts presented.

However, the feedback - about the article - from a dozen or so editors can give very good clues. I edit neutrally, of course, but I'm a big fan of the BBC (as a concept, not always of BBC decisions) and thus know I'm only ever going to be 99.9% neutral in editing and deciding the future of the article in question.

So, yes, we should go for FA, if only to get ideas, criticism, insults and facts chucked at us. We shouldn't go with a plan to fail, but should look on it as a learning process. And we should be ready to take the criticism we will get as editors. So, yes - send it to WP:FAC, but sign both our names (if you want). There's no reason for you to take the heat yourself. However, if you've got a constitution of iron (and you have my full support in what you do as an editor as a whole and on the BBC article in particular) just go for it and we'll both act on the suggestions from FAC and resubmit if we do fail.

BTW, you'll soon be at six months of active editing of Wikipedia: would you find the extra buttons of being an admin useful and do you do any vandal fighting to really need them? I ask because you're close to 2000 edits, close on six months, you'll soon have a Featured Article under your belt... if the tools would be useful for you, it would be time to join the cabal and I'd be happy to nominate you come that time. But only if you think you've got a use for them, obviously. ➨ ЯEDVERS 19:41, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Hello
On the Article Andrew Hageman you voted Delete claiming : no professional appearances (WP:BIO).

According to WP:BIO:
Articles about first team squad members who have not made a first team appearance may also be appropriate, but only if the individual is at a club of sufficient stature that most members of its squad are worthy of articles

He is currently part of the First Team, he has not played any games because he is injured, he plays in 2 weeks.
He's starting a two-year first team contract this season. He's a professional player with a professional contract.[1] The article initialy didn't make that 100% clear, it is now stated it more explicitly. A first team player in the Irish equivelent of the premiership is notable enough.
Thanks

L&B

Hi, and many thanks for your input to the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway article. I think I've taken on most of your suggestions (apart from piling the locos on top of each other, which wouldn't be very prototypical!). Perhaps you could let me know what you think of the changes so far?

Regards, Lynbarn 12:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note, and the changes you made to the article. It does seem more scholarly and encyclopediaic [?] as a result. I agree that the tables don't yet quite work, but as they now are, I can see where some rationalisation can be applied. ( Done! Lynbarn 12:06, 8 August 2006 (UTC) )[reply]

I like the idea of the combined map/route diagram though. I have the original map, and others, and can redraw the diagram (I concentrated on getting the scale distances correct, but the finished image wasn't quite as I had hoped), so I should be able to improve the quality. maybe smaller images would help too. I will also try piling up the locos, see what they look like!

As I find the references again in my books, I am adding in-line references, but as several quote very similar details, it is sometimes difficult to remember which I used where!

Thanks again, Lynbarn 15:20, 4 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright of tables in WP

Hi Daduzi. Thanks for your comments on the copyright status of tables. The table I have in mind is very simple: it's just a list of all of the games Pele played in, and the scores, and how many goals Pele scored in each game, and a running total of goals Pele scored. There is no special formatting in the table and I've already edited it considerably, removing various year-on-year summaries, adding a couple of columns, and dividing the table into around ten sub-tables, each representing on average of two years of Pele's career. Does this sound like it would still be copyrighted to the original creator? Can you recommend a source which can clarify the issue? Jim (Talk) 11:41, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Guardian

I appreciate your willingness to compromise, but unfortunately you do not understand the actual conflict.

1. This dispute has nothing to do with anti-Semitism on the The Guardian, much less The Guardian at all. This is an attempt to attack me and scare me away and it is in retaliation for edits I made under one of my past accounts - User:Freestylefrappe. I angered several of the users in question under that account as an administrator.

2. The sites I mentioned are reliable. I would encourage you to read, though it is not necessary, the discussion on WP:V, unless you already have.

The sites I sourced are the following:

This post at AtlanticBlog.
- The writer: William Sjostrom, senior lecturer, teaching economics, at

Centre for Policy Studies National University of Ireland, has affiliate faculty status at the University of Haifa and Bar-Ilan University in Israel. Served on the editorial board of the International Journal of Maritime Economics. Seved on the steering committee of the Ports and Maritime Transport Group of the World Conference on Transport Research Society. Learned economics at the University of Washington and the University of Chicago, and has worked in the past at Northern Illinois University and the Port of Seattle. For his bio, see here.

- - This is (effectively) a letter to the editor, which is confusing the phrase "wreck the ceasefire" with "violate the ceasefire"; ceasefires, and not only in the Middle East, have sometimes continued despite occasional infringements. It's one partisan personal opinion. Septentrionalis 16:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This post at Mideast Dispatch Archive.
- The writer: Tom Gross, former Jerusalem correspondent for the Sunday Telegraph of London and for the New York Daily News. In addition, he has written news reports, features, articles, editorials and reviews for a broad range of other publications. These include the Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, the National Review (USA), the London Daily Telegraph, the New York Post, the London Evening Standard, the Spectator (UK), Ha’aretz (Tel Aviv), the Jerusalem Post, the Jerusalem Report, the Jewish Chronicle, Harper’s and Queen (London), Italian Elle (Milan) and Cosmopolitan magazine (London). He also worked as a staff writer and editor at the Jerusalem Post for two years. For his bio, see here.
  - This does not call the Guardian anti-Semitic; it disagrees whether criticism of Israel has been called anti-Semitism, and argues that publishing a a Palestinian activist and an advertisement have anti-Semitic effect. (Since it condemns the activist and the ad for criticizing Israel, this position is a trifle odd.) Septentrionalis 16:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This post at Jihad Watch
- The writer: Robert Spencer, writer and researcher who has written six books, seven monographs, and well over a hundred articles about jihad and Islamic terrorism. His latest book is the New York Times bestseller The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) (Regnery). He is also the author of Islam Unveiled: Disturbing Questions About the World's Fastest Growing Faith (Encounter) and Onward Muslim Soldiers: How Jihad Still Threatens America and the West (Regnery). He is coauthor, with Daniel Ali, of Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics (Ascension), and editor of the essay collection The Myth of Islamic Tolerance: How Islamic Law Treats Non-Muslims (Prometheus). His next book, The Truth About Muhammad, is coming October 9 from Regnery Publishing. For his bio, see here.
  - This article cites an article in the Guardian as saying the Muslim world is anti-Semitic, and agrees on that point. Septentrionalis 16:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now, if you are genuinely interested in discussing a compromise to the criticism of The Guardian I am willing to talk but I respond badly to threats. Tchadienne 17:08, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently Tchadienne is having difficulty understanding WP:RS. Just zis Guy you know? 19:51, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Two rather strained opinions and a misreading. If this is the total of Tchadienne's evidence, we might as well include Category:newspapers in Category:anti-Semitism; I'm sure this can be parallelled from Ha'aretz's correspondence column too. Septentrionalis 16:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well done for your reasoned contributions to this debate. --Guinnog 15:03, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey that is smart, I didn't think about it, ahahahaha. Yeah probably I would end up with "DT" as people may laugh at me if I use another logo. Well thanks Daduzi, see ya around, take care.. Imoeng 12:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re. Tarot & Critics

This is a criticism that has gained some ground since the publication of Dummett's Game of Tarot. I think it is well placed in the Critics section. I fail to see how the reporting of such a view is considered controversial here. Perhaps it is due to a Wikipedia systemic bias. I have documented this school of thought. It has been expressed by the most well known Tarot historian as well as the most well known critic of its occult uses. I also hear such a view on occasion when I pursue this pastime online. The critics section, I think, should include ALL points of view. If you've a rebuttal to the notion that the card games are the more authentic tarot, then please post it. Besides the players of these games, some religious and skeptical critics have used this arguement as well; that the Tarot sold at the New Age bookstore is not the real deal. If you like, visit my talkspace, Smiloid 05:27, 9 August 2006 (UTC) In fairness, I have just offered a reply for you. It might be called a "pragmatist" defense of tarot reading. See William James. He believed in God because it was useful for him to do so. I have found that most Tarot readers today do not take seriously the more spurious notions concerning the decks origins and consider it largely irrelevant to this practice. I hope this balances things out, concerning POV's. Smiloid 08:06, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Daduzi,

You started off with the User:Daduzi/Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions page some time ago. Me and other contributors have added to it and it is quite stable now for some time. I was wondering if you would agree with moving (or copying) it to the project space, it might attract more attention there. Regards, -- Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 14:42, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Ruud Gullit headshot.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Ruud Gullit headshot.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 18:14, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:58, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:10, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
