WP is a good place to do it, & centralize a discussion is convenient, and so I will avail myself of my colleague's invitation, and will look here for a reply.

I see WP as providing a sort of index to knowledge -- not a repository of it, which is beyond any encyclopedia, not a summary of it, which needs experts such as on Citizendium, but an fully anotated hyperlinked index of where information is to be found. The role of the WP is the role of the journalist. We organize and report on as much of the world as possible. We have some unique advantages -- the variety of contributors, the potential for hyperlinks, the insistance on GFDL. We have some disadvantages--the lack of intellectual sophistication of many contributors, the stubbornness of others, the prejudices of everyone.

In order to keep this job finite it is necessary to set limits. i do not agree with those who think --quite literally--that every human being living or dead should have an article, and every school and building and group and recording and book and software. We record what is worth recording given our facilities. Most editors here do not have access to research libraries, and can therefore on many topics not be expected to do more than summarize other encyclopedias or textbooks--they cannot be expected to be able to gather all the published work and organize it. for other topics, especially those arisen in the last 8 or 10 years, they can, & the consequent emphasis on contemporary culture is appropriate.

The standards of documentation depend on the subject, and it is absurd to expect peer-reviewed formal sources for computer programs, and equally absurd to rely on newspapers for science. And both absurd & disruptive to treat them as equally open to criticism by the same standards and the same people.

My professional career has been organizing the formal documentation of science, in polemics and a little research in how to do it, and I know the limits of both scholarship and argument.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Klingon_Way, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting.

I have taken a look again at my presumed "editing of legitimate comments by other users", and I have to admit that this must have happened by accident without my knowledge - anyhow, the "edit" in question makes no sense whatsoever, I can see it was most probably an accidental pasting of the content of my memory buffer, (exactly of the phrase I have had used within my previous edit and subsequently, copied-and-pasted, as a summary description of my previous edit), inadvertently replacing some words typed previously by you.

Let me quote some excerpts from the review by Captain Krankor, in oder to show you the level of scholarly work and independent research (beyond simply quoting Marc Okrand) done:

(...) A perennial problem in the study of tlhIngan Hol is the paucity of available source material, so the emergence of any new body of canonical Klingon is always an event of paramount (!) importance. Such a new work has recently become available to us with the publication of Marc Okrand's Star Trek: The Klingon Way - A Warrior's Guide. While the work predominantely concerns itself with Klingon culture and philosophy, it does contain a considerable amount of Hol [i.e. language], some of which covers new ground and offers fresh insight. (...) It bear noting at the outset that aby insights which we glean form The Klingon Way may have to be taken with a small grain of salt. The book is, for the most part, a collection of Klingon proverbs, and. as Dr. Okrand points out explicitly, "As with common sayings in other languages, some Klingon proverbs, particularly those which have taken on ritualistic overtones, exhibit unusual grammatical forms." (TKW p. 65). Fortunately, we have good reasons to feel comfortable drawing conclusions from the constructions we find. The truth is, the vast bulk of the proverbs presented conform tp standard, modern Klingon grammar, and for those few which do appera aberrant, Dr. Okrand draws explicit attention to the aberration.

In fact, somewhat surprisingly, there is very little which is shockingly new. What do we find of importance are certain examples which provide clarification for usage in areas which were previously murky. There is also, it should be noted, some important new vocabulary presented, but I shall leave that to someone else to compile.

Perhaps the most exciting find is tat the work provides the resolution of one of the oldest grammatical issues (...). The issue is the proper usage of the word Hoch - "everyone, all, everything" - in conjunction with other nouns. (...) [p. 2, followed by a lengthy discussion of the usage of the word Hoch in the proverbs, p. 2-3].

One thing which has slowly become clear is that when TKD talks about "sentences," it often really means "clauses." (...) [p. 3, followed by a discussion of examples taken from TKD, p. 3-4]. Well, happily, TKW confirms this instinct. We have a couple of examples of "sentence" conjunctions being used to join mere clauses. (...) [p. 4, followed by a lengthy discussion of "sentence" conjunctions, according to the terminology of TKD, like 'ej and 'ach, in the proverbs, p. 4-5].

The remaining insights are smaller, but nonetheless interesting and valuable. For instance, on page 29 we find:

WuwvI'pu' qan tu'lu'be'.

There are no old warriors.

What is interesting here is the placement of the -be' . In PK [i.e. Power Klingon]], we are given the toast QuvlIjDaq yIHmey tu'be'lu'jaj, wich seem to imply that the -be' should go before the -lu' when negating our old friend tu'lu' . Indeed, your friendly grammarian deliberately changed his style becaue of this. Yet, here we find that tu'lu'be' is perfectly acceptavle. (...) [p. 5]

Another morsel is found on page 69, where we are delighted to have an official translation of:

Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam.

It is a good day to die.

Since the original TKD, we have known that a -meH verb can take no verb prefix and take an indefinite subject meaning. (...) It is therefore interesting to find out that one is permitted to put in an explicit -lu' suffix if one so chooses, as is done with Heghlu'meH. [p. 5-6]

(...) [omitted: a discussion of comparatives and superlatives].

And so we have found much valuable grammatic fruit in the pages of The Klingon Way. It bears mentioning that there are also several proverbs which are "interesting" for other reasons, but which limited space prevents going into. For instance, one might find, on pages 95 and 104, validation (more or less) of transcriptions long ago presented in this column. And one might find significant grammatic error were one to study pages 119 or 186. (...) [p. 6]

Please assume good faith in your dealings with other editors, which you did not on The Klingon Way. Assume that they are here to improve rather than harm Wikipedia. Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Klingon_Way. Two editors have told you not to attempt to make out this some bad faith or bad faith/destructive editors.

I just reverted the addition of the {{Intelligent Design}} template at Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District. It was already present lower in the article. I saw it was also duplicated at Center for Science and Culture and you have added the template (or possibly other edits of the same size) to a number of articles. You might want to check for duplications. Sometimes the template may appear in a relevant section rather than at the top of the article.

  Oh, I am so sorry, I haven't remarked. I have just followed all the talk links to those who participated in talk for that consensus.

I am sorry. I do not know whether you have an opinion or not (I have thought that yes, because you have participated the discussion, but I might be wrong). It was not my intension to canvass you (or anybody). What you desrcribe as "multiple attemptes" - I only corrected twice my errors in my first message. (And in my opinion my message in any of the three versions absolutely does not fulfill the description of canvassing as shown in the definition page). I didn't intend to influence your opinion on the topic being discussed, nor sent you multiple messages, or whatever. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my message, I didn't intend to edit the topic area clearly marked as archive, I wanted to ask your opinions about reopening the RfC (and due to the fact that the the link to that notification page was sent me in an .m. version, I couldn't have opened the discussion in the notification page). Maybe I was lucky in that. Your commenst makes me say: This is the last time in my life that I have gone beyond pure editing of some Wikipedia articles, and try to express some more general point of view. Usually immediately afterward someone appears acccusing me of something which was absolutely not my intention, if one only clearly reads my words and analyses my actions.

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

OK. In fact, I am a Sanskrit and Indian philosophy scholar first of all, those topics are therefore natural to me. It means I only need to be less "bold" than usual, less "bold" than the Wikipedia guideline says? More cautious? Well, well... The other (positive for me) fact, however, is that I am not interested at all in modern India/Pakistan/other countries of the region, so the issues of "nationalism" shall probably pass by me. But on the other (negative) hand, being interested in religions, makes my edits probably a possible target of some religious fanatics. Well, well... I have studied the information behind the link provided to the contentious topics on India etc. and I find most cases mentioned there (in very vague way, indeed), something I would probably never engage to. Until yesterday I was not aware that the case of script can also be so contentious...

Consensus in the article mainland China is that it is treated as a geographical entity, not a political entity (hence, the lower case "mainland China" is used instead of "Mainland China"). When describing something which associates with a geographical entity, "on" is used instead of "in" (i.e. on the island, on the continent, on the mainland, on the peninsula etc.).

Usage of "mainland China" vs "Mainland China" in Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=mainland+China&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1

It seems to mee that you fully agree with me, despite your previous move, at least the Wordreference forum linked by you now seems to fully confirm my revert. My capitalisation of the "Mainland" was caused only by the fact that it was quoted from the title of the template. Otherwise I fully agree with you. Thank you. noychoH (talk) 10:06, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240127100600","author":"NoychoH","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-NoychoH-20240127100600-Vic_Park-20240126153500","replies":["c-Vic_Park-20240128110100-NoychoH-20240127100600"]}}-->

I have done a research myself. There are actually two different "mainland/Mainland Chinas". When the word mainland is capitalized (i.e. Mainland China), it is a geopolitical term defined as the territory under direct administration of the Chinese Communist Party government of the People's Republic of China. It includes Hainan Island and other smaller islands directly administered by China, but excludes Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan. When the word mainland is not capitalized (i.e. mainland China), it is a geographical term defined as the part of China located on mainland Asia (or Eurasia), excluding all its islands, regardless of their political status.

In summary, "Mainland China" is a political region, therefore we should use "something/someone is in Mainland China". On the other hand, "mainland China" is a physical region, therefore we should use "something/someone is on mainland China".

The context in that template clearly refers to the geopolitical term, not the geographical term. Hence, you are absolutely correct in using the word "in" and capitalized the word "Mainland". Thank you for picking out the mistake.

You are most kindly welcome!

What more, the geopolitical term directly reflects the common usage of the Chinese term Zhōngguó Dàlù 中國大陸 in Taiwan ("Taiwan" understood as the short form for the country "Republic of China", not as the island; hence the traditional characters used), whereas the geographical term reflects the common usage of the same term Zhōngguó dàlù 中国大陆 in the Peoples Republic of China (hence the simplified characters used). noychoH (talk) 21:55, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240128215500","author":"NoychoH","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-NoychoH-20240128215500-Vic_Park-20240128110100","replies":[]}}-->
