HelpME: I'm obviously very confused. The information that I have placed into the article is absolutely accurate. I can't seem to figure out how to add catagories and don't quite understand what is being requested as to documentation. I have included many links. I have tried to link to the Wiki article on Brett Livingstone Strong, but it keeps rejecting it. Don't know why. Please help me to get this right.

HelpMe: I tried to delete the "deletion box" but it came right back. I'm also planning to add additional pictures of the Monument in major National events. Don't know if that adds any credibilty to the article. Its hard to link the monument to other articles without going into those articles and adding the information about the monument. i.e. The bio of Warren Burger mentions his being chairman of the Commission, but doesn't mention that he commissioned the monument(s). do I go in and add the monument information to his Bio, which by the way is what I did? Still can not figure out catagories at all. I've read and re-read the article about catagories and for my own part, it is Greek to me.

Larry,

Don't worry about that, it's just a disagreement with another editor. Just check out the The National Monument to the U.S. Constitution article talk page. --Mad Pierrot (talk) 04:13, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-07-10T04:13:00.000Z","author":"Mad Pierrot","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Mad_Pierrot-2009-07-10T04:13:00.000Z-Lawrence_Creeger-2009-07-10T03:43:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Thank you for getting in touch with me, and for stating your position with regard to my edits. I am sorry to hear that you feel they are a "joke." The Wikipedia page for B.D. Wong, another actor who stars in Law and Order SVU, states that he is "openly gay." (I quote: "Wong, who is openly gay, began a long-term relationship with talent agent Richie Jackson in 1988.") A search for "who is openly gay" on Wiki reveals 72 hits. Before I edited several articles, a search for "who is openly straight" turned up nothing.

I am sorry, but I cannot accept your position that this discrepancy represents some kind of neutrality. In fact, I believe that my edits were aimed much more clearly at approaching neutrality than is your reversion.

If you insist that the "openly straight" edits be removed, I must insist that the 72 references to being "openly gay" be removed as well. "Openly gay," when used in this way, implies that the individual should have something to be ashamed of, but that they overcame it. I'm sorry -- that's doesn't feel like neutrality to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.120.147.142 (talk) 03:32, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-07-10T03:32:00.000Z","author":"208.120.147.142","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-208.120.147.142-2009-07-10T03:32:00.000Z-\"openly_straight\"_edits","replies":["c-Mad_Pierrot-2009-07-10T16:55:00.000Z-208.120.147.142-2009-07-10T03:32:00.000Z"]}}-->

While I disagree with your position that "openly gay," when used in this way, implies that the individual should have something to be ashamed of, that is besides the point. Wikipedia is not a soapbox. If you would like, I could debate with you why I disagree with you, but I doubt either of us are going to change our positions. Please, let's be civil, and if you find something you disagree with on an article, you should consider including an edit summary and making your case on the talk page when you make changes. One more thing, it is considered good practice to sign your posts on talk pages by inserting four ~'s after your post.

Hey Siddeshendia,

If you believe that Band Nee merits it's own article, you should make your case on the talk page. However, looking over your contributions, it seems that you have repeatedly recreated the Band Nee article after it had been deleted. This is generally frowned upon, and administrators will be less likely to want to keep the article on Wikipedia.

No sweat regarding that Twinkle mix-up. It's happened before.  :) Couple of things, if I may: Since you're involved with Linux, would you take a peek at my talk page? A new editor is trying to build a page on a new event called the Southeast Linux Fest and he's building it on a subpage. I'm unfamiliar with the names he's listed as speakers for this year's event. If they're notable, then it's likely the event is as well. Kind of borderline. The other thing is, I used to work a lot with RickK some years back when I was getting started. He and I became internet pen pals for awhile. Sadly, I've lost touch with him. It would be my pleasure to make the wish on your userpage come true since Rick was truly an asset to this site. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 06:41, 13 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-07-13T06:41:00.000Z","author":"PMDrive1061","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-PMDrive1061-2009-07-13T06:41:00.000Z-You_got_it.","replies":[]}}-->

Wow, thanks! I've been neglecting my real life to fight vandalism these past few weeks... Anyway, after looking over the list of names, I would say that most those people are notable in the Open Source community. It's actually pretty impressive for a college level gathering. Especially Pete Graner (Kernel manager at Canonical), Chris DiBona at Google, Paul Frields (Fedora project leader), and well they're actually all pretty impressive. Lbyrd1984 should consider joining the various Wikiprojects about open source stuff: Wikiproject Free Software, Wikiproject Linux, along with Wikiproject Computer Science, and Wikiproject Computers.

On a side-note, would you mind taking a look at the The National Monument to the U.S. Constitution page for me? The article's creator Lawrence Creege and I have been going back and forth (civilly) about whether the article should be included on Wikipedia for a week or so now. You can see the whole thing play out over the page history, but essentially I didn't think it was real, until I found a few websites (which it turns out he owns) about it. I have requested a third opinion, but maybe you could just have a look at the page to tell me I'm not crazy? My gut tells that it has too many factors working against it (copyright infringement, conflict of interest, notability, lack of third-party sources) for it to be included on Wikipedia, at least in its current form. This is all said with no ill feelings towards Larry, it's obvious he just cares about the subject and he wants more people to know about it.

Well anyway, thanks again for the barnstar, and I look forward to working with you!

Oh and, would you mind signing the barnstar? I would like to proudly display it on my user page. Thanks.

I have Pierrot granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe I can trust you to use rollback correctly by using it for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it.

Your reverting of my edits on the page democracy were quite disappointing. I will below lay out the points for why my version should stay.

1. It's not like anyone's ever going to read all that crap that's there now
2. If anyone ever does read it, they'll be pleasantly surprised when they figure out they're actually reading something interesting.
3. You didn't even read what I wrote, I bet. I spent a lot of time on that, jerk.
4. See points 1-3

1. If no ones ever read all that "crap", how do you think I thwarted your efforts?
2. I will say this, you are very creative. However, what you deem interesting, most people would call it vandalism.
3. Democracy has a long a rambling history, from the rings of Saturn to the twelve moons of the slave planet Doomulon 12X. The first recorded history of democracy can be seen in ancient Benetarian texts. From one text found in the tomb of Pat Benetar XII (translated from its original Bentese... is as far as I read before I reverted your changes.
4. I decided that your edits weren't constructive, which does constitute vandalism.

1. You were just in the neighborhood and decided to check out the democracy page? Please, don't insult my intelligence.
2. You know who else they used to call "vandalism"? Democracy, the thing which you seem so sworn to defend.
3. Point 3 still stands, you didn't read everything I wrote so you can't say anything about how accurate it is.
4.

To be honest with you, with comments like your mom isn't constructive, it's hard to engage with you intelligently. Most of your argument is nonsensical, so I'll focus on the third point: you are correct, I didn't read everything you wrote. However, I read enough of it to decide it was silly vandalism.

Mr. Pierrot, I was all prepared to forgive and forget about this little incident, but you recent edits to the Tacoma, Washington that deliberately reverted edits that I had made are simply unacceptable and, quite frankly, insulting. In case you do not remember, I had changed the page to state that singer-songwriter Pat Benetar had been elected to the office of mayor. Many points that I made (and that you so casually dismissed) in defense of my edits to the democracy page also can be applied to my very minor edit to the Tacoma, Washington page. For example, no one cares who the mayor of Tacoma, Washington is. In short, Mr. Pierrot, I request that you produce the documents specifically stating that Ms. Benetar never has been or ever will be mayor of Tacoma, Washington. Thank you for your time.

You won't get anywhere with name calling. I think you might find that the editors at Uncyclopedia will be more likely to appreciate your particular brand of humor. With that being said, I think you could actually contribute constructively to Wikipedia, you are very creative. What are your interests, other than Pat Benetar?

I've been pretty patient so far, but if you're not willing to discuss this like adults I see no reason to continue this conversation.

I'm very sorry, you'll have to excuse my impudence. I simply get very passionate over topics that I feel strongly about. I'm perfectly willing to be an adult about this. Why did you feel the need to not only change my edits to the democracy page, but also change all my edits prior to that?

YOU ARE REMOVING COMPLETELY FACTUAL INFORMATION FROM THE OBAMA PAGES AND LEAVING INFORMATION THAT IS BLATANTLY FALSES ON THESE PAGES.

You may not be aware of this, but using all caps on the internet is equivalent to yelling or screaming at someone. If you can't back up your claims with reliable sources and write in a neutral tone, your edits will be reverted.

You are removing totally true information which is extremely easily verified by multiple sources and you are leaving information that is completely colored and totally false relating to the eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama II to be President of the United States. I would strongly suggest that you read the complete text of the completely verificable two lawsuits by Dr. Orly Taitz at http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/blog1/ and the specific permanent links at http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/blog1/?p=3120 and http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/blog1/?p=3117 for highly detailed and up to the minute information on this matter. What is at issue, of course, is the TRUTH, and that appears to be being almost completely blocked by your editing procedures. All of the edits I have made are a matter of record here on this site and all of them were 100% TRUE AND CORRECT. They were also written in a fully "neutral" journalistic tone and were quite professional, factual, and accurate. Again, I would strongly suggest you learn about the actual facts of this matter before deleting 100% correct factual comments.!!

SERIOUS QUESTIONS OVER LEGITIMACY OF BARACK OBAMA TO BE POTUS

The fact of the matter is that many very serious qauestions do exist over the right of Barack Hussein Obama II to be President of the United States of America based on the qualification requirements of Article 2 Section 1 of the United States Constitution. This is not opinion, but pure fact, and there are over 40 lawsuits filed over this matter, not of which have yet been heard on the merits, but all of which assert major and voluminous factual issues which must be heard and debated and then decided by proper courts of law as well as the court of public opinion. I would strongly suggest you learn about journalism and the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, and HOW issues that are requisite in journalism. The longer the truth is suppressed the more substantial the issues will become when they are proven and exposed for all to see. WikiPedia purports to be a medium of truth, but from what I am seeing, the truth is being supressed either due to political purposes or utter ignorance of the truth.

I applaud you on your reduction of using all capitals, but I must insist that you don't yell at me on my own talk page. I won't stand for it. If you want to make a point you italicize your words. See the Wikipedia manual of style. Unfortunately, neither you nor I was present at the birth of Barack Obama, so neither of us will really know in what country he was born. The issue is not the article itself or what you wish to contribute, it's the way you are trying to contribute. Here is an example of text that you added, but was later reverted:

In fact, however, the State of Hawaii never certified that the purported Certificate of Live Birth shown by the Obama people on its web sites was ever issued by the State of Hawaii, and the fact remains that that image had the certificate number redacted (blacked out) and the Certification stated quite clearly on the bottom that ANY ALTERATIONS TO THIS CERTIFICATE VOID THE CERTIFICATE

Whenever you use all caps in an edit, you can probably bet it's going to be reverted. Why would anyone want to read an article that is yelling at them? With articles as established as these (it's rated as a B-class article, which is pretty darn good) your best bet is to introduce the new source on the talk page, and ask for more established editors for their help. They may disagree with you that your source is reliable but that's about all you can do. One more policy that I think is relevant: Wikipedia is not a soap box.
