Ginsberg's theorem (Joja)

Ginsberg's theorem (Dingo1729)

Why did you undo the section on "The Netherlands still holds its annual Christmas alike parade of Sinterklaas featuring Zwarte Piet in full blackface outfit." the picture provided is the source for this, it depicts a Zwarte Piet dressed as a blackface in 2010? Can we please restore this important line? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.4.130.106 (talk) 01:32, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you are referring to. Please send me a link to the last version that had that text. Jojalozzo 02:32, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I found it and put it back with a little editing. Jojalozzo 03:59, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Joja, we went through the telecom resistance to downcasing in items such as named protocols. Well, OK, although I'm not entirely happy with that. We hav established that laws, theories, theorems, principles, rules, should be downcased. Am I wrong to assume that named indexes should be downcased? Many are already downcased on WP and in the open literature. I'd appreciate your advice on the arguments for and against in this respect. Tony (talk) 07:01, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Marketing mix, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Franchise (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I'm not sure what you mean. Maybe help me out and explain in that page's discussion? Thanks in advance -Tesseract²(talk) 07:59, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Long unsourced lists are not encyclopedic, even if sourced. We are not the film festival's promotional website. Yworo (talk) 03:19, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See 2011 Sundance Film Festival. Please discuss on SRFF article page. Jojalozzo 03:24, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Silent River Film Festival requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject of the article is important or significant: that is, why an article about it should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you can assert the importance of the subject, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. You may freely add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

See the guidelines for specific types of articles: biographies, websites, bands, or companies. Yworo (talk) 03:25, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Silent River Film Festival. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. You compared these additions to 2011 Sundance Film Festival. All the lists in that article have sources. Thank you. Yworo (talk) 14:42, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're so quick on the trigger with this article that I wasn't able to add sources (they exist!) before you deleted the content. Since you appear to be unwilling to locate or supply sources yourself, I suggest you back off for a bit while others work on this. I find it especially unseemly when proponents of speedy deletion remove content during discussion. Last, I suggest you use the article talk page for these discussions. Jojalozzo 15:01, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't remove any content until the speedy had been declined. Watch your accusations and don't make them until you have made sure they are true, I searched for sources on Google News, there was only one, and it was already used in the article. Yworo (talk) 15:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies. I didn't see that bit of timing. Though I still question deletion of content while proposing deletion of the article unless you felt it might give the article a better chance to survive the proposal. In any case, I agree that the list of all entries was not so useful and is better replaced with the list of awardees, so it's all moot now. Jojalozzo 16:22, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(I'm copying this to Talk:Overpass#Gallery_Added let's continue the discussion there.)

Regarding the images on the article Overpass, the prior arrangement was somewhat unsightly due to the relatively small amount of text on the page and the large number of images. I left one image out of the gallery because, in my opinion, it was the image that is most descriptive of the concept of Overpass/flyover.

I did intend to move the image to the right side of the article, but I forgot to do that. I have just corrected that oversight.

In your note you mentioned that the images were, "moved ... to the railroad overpass section." I'm not sure what you mean. The article, and the gallery I added, is about both highway and railroad overpasses. What I did was create a gallery for all but one of the images to make the article flow better visually.

Finally, the policy I mentioned in my edit summary is Section 3.2 of Wikipedia Manual of Style/Images which talks about how to locate an image. But I was also influenced by Section 2 of Wikipedia:Picture tutorial, Avoiding stack-ups where we learn that stacking multiple images against large amounts of white space is visually undesirable. My edit was intended to fix that.

Finally if your interest is in railroad overpasses, I think the article would benefit from more railroad related images. If you have any that would be appropriate that would be great.
