Charles Borromeo[edit]

The Charles Borromeo page was renamed without any discussion. Please restore Charles Borromeo (Italian saint) to its original name. Even if the other article about the Indian athlete is found to be notable, the renaming should be handled differently and not simply by a single user's fiat. For example, perhaps the {{moveto}} template should have been used to alert people that a major chnage to a major saint was about to be made. --evrik (talk) 15:09, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • I did a google search on Charles Borromeo. I wasn't trying to make a WP:POINT. While the athlete may be notable in some fashion, the saint's article was renamed, and a disambig page was made for an article that was less than a stub. I think it was more disruptive to have made that unilateral move. The way the article was moved should be addressed by reverting the name change and let the people who want the name change make their point. --evrik (talk) 15:18, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for making the name change. I'll post a comment to the afd page. --evrik (talk) 15:32, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
An almost irrelevant okay from me too. The athlete is not very famous in India except with a small crowd who is seriously interested in athletics. I remember him because the 1982 games was the first Asian Games that I followed. Tintin (talk) 15:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, for matters involving India, please also drop a word in WT:INB. It will help to avoid unnecessary friction and ego clashes. Tintin (talk) 16:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why propose renaming only 2 sub-categories of "awardees" to "recipients"? It'll make the rest look untidy! :) --Mereda 17:59, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ah! Problem. Most of these nominated categories have not got the proper cfr notice on them yet, and the one for Padma Shri does not route automatically to the Arjuna section heading.--Mereda 08:20, 15 November 2006 (UTC) It should be fixable ...[reply]
    • But I could only see an ugly slow way of fixing it by relisting the whole set under today's date, so I needed to pass the buck. Sorry if anything sounded like sarcasm. --Mereda 12:37, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Thurbert Baker.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Thurbert Baker.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Chowbok 18:16, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Uncle Mart User Page[edit]

Apparently you took the liberty of Deleting this users OWN page, as well as banning his IP address, as well as his user name, under the accusation of him being trolling. Care to elaborate further on the matter? (Cloud02 20:36, 14 November 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Nope! - crz crztalk 21:18, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

History log shows changes to his page so its clear you're full of it, also there are NO incedents of him trolling before you started saying he was trolling, seems like a rouge wikiadmin to me, I bet money he banned you from isonews because you asked for the sims or something retarded. 211.176.9.184 11:50, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yea, sims, I really want sims. Please please give me sims from isonews! </facetious> Get off my talkpage. Cheers. - crz crztalk 12:25, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Funny, he asked you exactly the same thing on his user page yet you kept defacing it(although I suspect you'll edit the history or something to try and cover it up). Obviously you're not capable of being a wiki admin and should be removed and replaced by someone who can do a better job, you also sound like a five year old with your "clever" retorts, incedently no I wont leave your talk page (and I bet nobody else will either) as its here for that exact reason, to talk about things. "Cheers" 211.176.9.184 12:56, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the welcome.[edit]

I was just curious what triggered your adding the welcome message to my discussion page?

Also I see that you are a 3L at FLS. I too went there - graduated in 2005. Good luck with the Job hunt if you dont have one yet. Feel free to write back. I am still a relatively new wiki user. Guedalia D'Montenegro 01:52, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably Orthodox, lol. Yes I think I am going to start describing myself that way. Be careful, not everyone interested in Rabbis is Ortho. I happen to be. In anycase - yes went to FLS - worked for a bit, failed the bar (twice) now I am out of work and considering a new line of work or more schooling. Sad story of those who don's shape up while in Law School. Soon you will have finals - how sad. But know this - you gotta pass that Bar..no law school final will remotely compare to the bar. Well - nice meeting you anways - feel free to write anytime.Guedalia D'Montenegro 02:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Leon Tuhan-Baranowski[edit]

10 rue Pavée[edit]

Hey crz, can you help me with this User:DVD R W/Synagogue de la rue Pavée à Paris? DVD+ R/W 19:36, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is notable for being a building and Monument historique by architect Hector Guimard, and other reasons too that I don't know yet. The article needs better vocabulary though, and yes sources. I'll look into sources and names, if you do the vocab? Consistoire, cultuel, and liturgiques, all sound very Catholic to me when they should sound Jewish. I just found an even smaller version pl:Synagoga de la rue Pavée w Paryżu. Here's another one I want to bring over next fr:Synagogue de la rue des Tournelles à Paris. DVD+ R/W 19:54, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So far I've just found this in Paris travel guides. I'm sure it is in some of my architecture books, but they're all boxed up and my nearest library sucks. How about this [1] ? It is named Agudath Hakehilot and called the largest synagogue in the Pletzl (the yiddish speaking district in Paris). Also has anecdotes about Guimard's wife, a Yom Kippur 1940 dynamiting, and restoration. DVD+ R/W 20:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Any more thoughts on this? I found two refs. What do you think about the name? DVD+ R/W 23:23, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Really? I'll swing by this Sunday and check it out! ^_^ --Uncle Ed 19:56, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

request move[edit]

i am doing a revamp on allot of the jewish community articles. i.e. 'history of french jews' has been moved to 'french jewery'. In other words i would like the articles on each of the communities to be more in touch with what they are now and their demographics, and to have a history paragraph/s like in any article.

now i would like to move 'british jews' to 'British Jewry' but i need admin rights. please assist.

Shkoiach!

Chavatshimshon 20:33, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, i created a new article World Jewry. i also moved 'History of the Jews in Russia and the Soviet Union' to 'russian jewry', I would like to start a new wikiproject called world Jewry and gather all the articles on the Jewish communities around the world so they all present an opening description including the demographics and historical background... unless you think its not needed. in the meantime please can you move amercan jews to 'american jewry'. shkoiach. Chavatshimshon 04:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

no im not. im from the uk, and its late here. ok so no wikiproject for that then, but i would like some help from the frum team on here, or stam jewish, to categorise the jewish communities worlwide and the demographics sheboi!


RFA Thanks[edit]

Thanks!
Thanks for your input on my (nearly recent) Request for adminship, which regretfully achived no consensus, with votes of 68/28/2. I am grateful for the input received, both positive and in opposition, and I'd like to thank you for your participation.
Georgewilliamherbert 04:57, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

please can you look at the world jewry article and tell me if im doing it right. i hyperlinked four countries in the list so far, but they lead to the articles on their jewish communities without being apparent. shkoiach. Chavatshimshon 07:18, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


me again[edit]

Jewry[edit]

Hi. The word "Jewry" is a standard scarecrow of antisemitic writings. It is seldom used in scholarly works and I don't think it is an appropriate term for an encyclopedia. Beit Or 14:14, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This statement is ignorance of the highest order. The articles the way they are titled is simply bad English. British Jews for example is not English, British Jewry, is English and is a term used every week in Newspapers here such as the Jewish Tribune amongst many others. Chavatshimshon 15:34, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

World Jewry Showdown[edit]

OK hi, please disregard my previous messages.

British and American Jewry dont exist anymore, they have been changed back to 'British Jews' etc. These terms are clearly not gramaticly correct.

I made a new category to replace the confusing "[Country] Jews" category which has been here for a number of years. I have been reading wikipedia for three years and the fact there is no cleancut category for jewish population articles always troubled me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:World_Jewry

I hope we can open a discussion on this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:World_Jewry

Pinkerton v. US[edit]

Yep, I'm a 1L. Actually we had just finished discussing Pinkerton in my Criminal Law class and I had a break between classes so I thought I'd add it to the wiki.

I've found that if I can find the case on wikipedia, it makes it a lot easier to understand compared to simply reading the opinion so hopefully I'll help out some future 1Ls.

Would you mind mediating on the Rush Limbaugh page?[edit]

Hi. You were very constructive in mediating a dispute I was involved in on the Mark Levin Talk Page some months back. There is currently an reversion war taking place on the Rush Limbaugh page regarding an incident where he insulted the looks of the pre-adolescent Chelsea Clinton on his national television show.

A group of pro-Limbaugh editors has been removing the material from the page, often dismissing arguments to keep the section, or proclaiming that "consensus has been reached" when the discussion is still taking place.

Would you mind stopping by and bringing some objective discourse to the page? Eleemosynary 04:12, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi There... I'm fairly new to Wikipedia and posted a short article on "Tour management systems" with the hope that other people would elaborate. I noticed it got deleted but I can't seem to find out why? Can you let me know what was wrong with the article so I can correct the problem(s) and repost it. Thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by sentias (talkcontribs) .

Replied on your talk page. - crz crztalk 17:11, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the quick response. I've just learned a new word :-) I would argue that it is similar to Content Management System which already exists in Wikipedia, however, Tour Management Systems are specifically designed for tour companies the same way e-commerce solutions are designed for retailers. Please post it to AFD and I will do my best to justify its inclusion. Sentias 17:18, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Mr. Crack[edit]

The article had no claim of notability, other than "known locally for a white van". However, since it is my first day as admin, I will take a defensive posture, restore it, and send it to AFD :-) -- ReyBrujo 04:46, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I couldn't find a reasonable item to apply at Wikipedia:Undeletion policy. Would you agree to send the article to Wikipedia:Deletion review instead? -- ReyBrujo 04:56, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I need the assistance of an administrator at Host desecration; my attempt to edit this article is being reverted resulting in a supression of fact that attempts to whitewash catholic antisemitism.

  • That's exactly the problem; I don't know what policies and procedures to assert and effect. The problem is that well established historical facts are not in the article; in the historical literature, this is not a controversial subject. The two editors that are provoking conflict here are doing so purely in the defense of their personal religious opinions.--Lance talk 16:49, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy. I was rather disappointed that you withdrew from the ArbCom(m) election, but I'll write apropos of that in greater detail some other time. In the meanwhile, though, I thought I ought to observe that you have the honor of being the deleting admin depicted on the image supra, which screenshot appears at Wikipedia:Why was my page deleted?. I'm quite surprised you haven't already gotten a message from some insufficiently attentive user who fails properly to read the Why was...? page and presumes that you speedied his/her brilliant content; I suppose you might merit such criticism in any event, though, because, whilst you may not delete something yourself, you must be held responsible as part of the cabal of Jews that Бора́т Сагди́ев informs me rules the 'pedia.  :) Joe 19:24, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indenting the Meatpuppets[edit]

Thank you for your attention on the ZineWiki AfD page. However, while you were indenting the "meatpuppets" on the discussion page, you forgot a few: User:AJMS (who's only contribution to Wikipedia has been to nominate the article for deletion) and User:Notth (who made fewer than three other edits to Wikipedia, ever.) If you're going to be a fair admin, you can't only point out the new accounts voting to keep, you must please, in the future, acknowledge those voting to delete as well.

Rudolf Steiners views on race and ethnicity[edit]

Hello Crzrussian,

You have deleted the article, but many of us felt some of the information needed to be merged into the main article. Is there an archive where the previous article can be viewed while the information is merged? Thanks in advance. Pete K 22:58, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, me again. Since the article is named in the arbitration, and a good portion of the agressive editing went on there, I'd like to have access to collect diffs from the article and the discussion pages related to the article. If you could make it accessible in locked-up form, it would be extremely helpful during the arbitration process. Thanks! Pete K 13:36, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I rather agreed with the point you made at Ardo's talk page and even with the stridency with which you made it, although I thought you might better have set forth what it was that you thought to be wrong with his application of speedy tags, as well you have done now. I was altogether surprised, though; the Crz whom I knew back in the day was an irreformable deletionist—on more than one occasion a Monicasdude antagonist—who never met a candidate for speedy deletion he didn't like. If you continue to progress in this manner, you might someday be able to handle what little power you have in life; at the very least, should I ever succeed at RfA, you'll no longer, I suppose, be the worst admin wiki has... :) Joe 07:38, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. Seems to be passing OK anyway. 17-4 at this point. That's what I love about Wikipedia-- important decisons are made by consensus. Consensus, and AfD in particular, may not be perfect, but it works better than a lot of other decison making processes.
