Speedy deletion declined: Starcraft2 Achievements

Hello Arctic Kangaroo. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Starcraft2 Achievements, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: A7 doesn't apply to game guides. Thank you. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 15:12, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

About Vandalism.

Sorry but why didn't you remove what he said too? if a vandal is reporting a vandal then his comment should be removed too. --HistoryofIran (talk) 15:27, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

I only saw his report after I reverted yours. But seriously, his edits were not vandalism. So, I don't see any point entertaining a troll/vandal like you. Period. Arctic Kangaroo 15:34, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
But he broke the three revert rule and removed much info and sources from this page 2011-2013 Iranian protests, and i am not a troll, i am acting good to you so please do the same. --HistoryofIran (talk) 15:35, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
I will let the admins settle it. Edit warring is wrong anyway... Arctic Kangaroo 15:39, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

To that end, I have started Irānshahr and HistoryofIran on 2011-2013 Iranian protests on ANI. ~ Amory (utc) 16:33, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Reverting on others' talk pages, reverting at WP:AIV, and not assuming good faith

Using Huggle like this to revert a comment off another editor's talk page is not very wise. There are instances where trolling is so outrageous that it's justifiable to remove it off someone else's talk page, but this was not one of them. As far as other people's talk pages are concerned, you would be better off only removing obvious personal attacks, obvious vandalism, and edits made in evasion of a ban.

Also, this removal of another editor's AIV report, and this dismissal of the editor as "a troll/vandal like you" were unnecessary. The editor has been editing for four months and been blocked once; they may well get blocked again, but unilaterally deciding they don't have the right to post on noticeboards because you've judged them guilty without a trial, is a failure to assume good faith on your part. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 16:14, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi Arctic Kangaroo Thanks for your input on this proposed page. You are of course correct in general about blogs. However, the reference used for the page in question rises beyond such generalisations, IMHO. First, it is on the Guggenheim website. Second, and more importantly, the author is a well-respected individual in the field of contemporary art, as you will see from her bio on the Guggenheim site: 'Nancy Adajania is a Bombay-based cultural theorist and independent curator. In 2012, she was artistic co-director of the 9th Gwangju Biennale. Adajania has written and lectured extensively on art in the public sphere and transcultural practice. She edited Shilpa Gupta (Prestel, 2010) and is co-author of “The Dialogues Series,” a set of conversations with contemporary Indian artists (Popular Prakashan/ Foundation B&G, 2011). She was research scholar at BAK, basis voor aktuele kunst, Utrecht (2010–2011).' (http://blogs.guggenheim.org/author/nancyadajania/) In light of this, perhaps you will reconsider and, I hope, agree with me that she is in fact a better than average source, certainly on a par with specialist journalists or academics. Kind regards Jim Moody — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmo (talkcontribs) 08:02, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

happening to drop by, I think the Times of India & Art in America refs fully sufficient for notability, and the Guggenheim blog is an acceptable 3rd party source. It is not a blog, in the sense of reader contributed content, but a publication of the museum, a highly respected museum at that. Many things are nowadays called blogs that aren't, in the sense the term was first used. DGG ( talk ) 23:38, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi Arctic Kangaroo Have you had a chance to re-view the page, as well as see the comments made by DGG above? Can you now approve the page? Regards Jimmo 11:35, 28 April 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmo (talkcontribs)

I do not understand why you blanked the page and asked for deletion. Perhaps that was not what you intended to do, but just clicked the wrong button. DGG ( talk ) 23:31, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

I think that's the only proper Malay sentence that I've typed here. But I've also seen that Bahasa Indonesia is quite different from Bahasa Melayu, although the Malaysians on ms.wiki say that it is almost the same. Arctic Kangaroo 07:46, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, I tend to agree that it's more or less the same. Only a few phrases are different, e.g. "Delapan" (Indonesian for eight) and "Lapan" (Malay for eight). Nevertheless, the degree of difference is minute. After all, both languages originate from the even harder Arabic language.

Unsourced paragraphs - Rafe Gomez

Arctic -

Thanks for taking a look at my article.

I'm in a bind here: the first reviewer of my article told me to remove citations. He felt that there were too many (I tried for approximately one per paragraph).

The second reviewer told me that everything looked good except the last two pargraphs, which I then combined into one along with one citation.

I'm happy to add citations to paragraphs, but I'm now antsy about having too many.

Can you please let me know which paragraphs could use citations, and I'll then insert them?

Thanks,

Hey Arctic Kangaroo. I wanted to let you know about this removal (see the edit summary). I always try to inform people when I do anything that in any way modifies material they posted.

Aha, I see from your user page you're Singaporean. I sometimes forget when I use idiomatic expressions that they might be idiomatic to my version of English. Anyway, it's, I suppose, originally a sports metaphor--on a score sheet, tracking the progress of two teams, you might have a wins and losses column. I was simply saying "yep, he got you!

I am not sure why you remove my correction

I am not sure why you remove my edit. When I have check Wikipedia:WikiProject Systems/List of systems page. I can't find the "F" session and all the link should list on "F" session that I found it list at "E" session. That's why I create "F" session, re-paste all the content from "E" session, and remove those index from "E" session. Or maybe you have better way to correct this error. Please let me know.

March 2015

I've opened a discussion here requesting that your now retired alternate account be blocked to prevent you from evading your ban and am leaving you this message because I'm required to notify you. PennJilletteFan (talk) 11:26, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Unblocked subject to conditions

The Ban Appeals Subcommittee has granted your appeal, and I have now unblocked your account subject to the following conditions:

  • The community-imposed ban from uploading media files [2][3] remains in force.
  • As the three month community-imposed ban from reviewing AFC submissions [4] had not expired when you were blocked it remains in force and is extended indefinitely.

These restrictions may be appealed at WP:AN or other community-approved venue six months from today or six months after your most recent sanction for breaching them (if any), whichever is later.

Welcome back.

Funny vote

Hi. I just stumbled across a funny vote that you placed on one of my images a few years ago! On Wikipedia Featured Picture Candidates, you supported it and said the photo was "Simply breathtaking". On Commons Featured Picture Candidates, you opposed and said "Nothing too special about the image, but it's a nice one. Just doesn't appeal to me" about exactly the same image. Anyway, I don't care, it doesn't matter now. I just found it funny. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 16:00, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Schweinsteiger's fee

That doesn't solve the problem. We can go around from source-to-source and see varying amounts. It's best to keep it as an undisclosed fee. Kingjeff (talk) 16:51, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

To illustrate my point, here and here states £14m and here and [5] says 15 million euro. So, which amount do we use? Kingjeff (talk) 17:10, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

But do we use £14.4m or £14m or do we use 15m euros? 15m euros seems to currently be about £10.7m. Kingjeff (talk) 17:29, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Lets keep it as undisclosed. Kingjeff (talk) 17:35, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Note

Graphium, this wasn't necessary--it was a good-faith comment that the user left on my talk page. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 18:11, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Drmies: Noted. I didn't realise it the joke then. Sorry. --Graphium 18:13, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Schweinsteiger's transfer to Man Utd

He is not under contract with the Bavarians anymore, it was already confirmed. [6] Vianna (talk) 18:34, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Vianna: Your edit was at 1:13pm UK, the deal was announced on United's twitter and website and 1:30pm UK. --Graphium 18:37, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Oscar sources

http://www.internacional.com.br/download.php?arquivo=BALANCO_2012.pdf

Is the source which shows internatcional's financial statement for when Oscar was tranaferred, the fee was worked out to be £19.35 million at the time of conversion.

I don't really have access to a computer atm, so I was wondering if you could please put in the source, I'd really appreciate it :).

I looked at previous editions and found out why the fee was no longer £19.35 million: someone had removed all the sources attached to the fee for some reason, someone else had then changed the fee which was now completely unsourced to what the BBC speculated it might be.

Apologies for not editing into the source originally, sources are difficult on mobile :).

Kind regards, 82.132.216.187 (talk) 08:25, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, I can't read Portuguese. Could you say which figure is the one to use? On page 2 there's a section with Oscar written under "Negociações de atletas" but I'm also not sure which figure to use, and none of them equates to anywhere near £20million according to Google's conversion. I'm just verifying it first to confirm. Thanks. --Graphium 10:08, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
