Copy edit request please

Hi could you please do a copy edit on the Croatian national football team? The article is currently well worded with a good quality of information and references, its just that some particular areas are lacking appropriate wording and grammar issues. Hope you can help.

Please let me know if your undertaking in the copyedit or not so I can continue to search for another editor. Again, hope you can help. Thanks! Domiy (talk) 12:00, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Armitron

Shirulashem, you are free to recreate the Armitron page because it was deleted under the speedy deletion criteria. I would suggest that you address the reason for deletion, however, or it is subject to speedy deletion again. In this case, you should read (if you haven't already) the pages on notability - Armitron was deleted because it did not assert the significance of the subject. Natalie (talk) 22:43, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Croatia national team FA candidate

Thanks for your help on the page in past times. It is finally up for another FA candidate which I think meets the criteria now that the article has been largely fixed up. Please voice any of your opposing or supporting issues at the page nomination at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates. Thanks! Domiy (talk) 22:47, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

acc access?

i'm hoping you could help me out. yesterday i was given account creator rights (or so i think). i created an account in the UI, i logged in, but when i tried to create an account for a user request, i was unable to. it said "the name is too similar." i also noticed that when i look at my user group rights, it doesn't say "account creator." am i missing something? thanks for your help! shirulashem (talk) 16:43, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Hey there, first of all being granted access to the ACC tool doesn't automatically assign you with the account creator right. Your account is only flagged if you keep hitting the maximum 6 accounts a day quota. Once you've shown evidence of a desire to help with the account creation process and you appear to be hitting this limit on a regular basis, you can apply for the flag at WP:PERM. Secondly, all the information you need to help you navigate around the tool can be found here. Alternatively, you can join us all in the IRC channel: #wikipedia-en-accounts, regards —— RyanLupin(talk) 16:51, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Chris, thanks for your edits on the Emergency Services section of RV. Did you go to Valley? Shirulashem (talk) 12:34, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Happy to help. The challenge now will be finding reliable third-party sources to reference this information. I grew up in RV, but I didn't go to Valley, I got sent to catholic school for high school.

Error Fixing "Ghz"

The bot changed 1.6Ghz to 1.6 GHz. See the revision history for Pascack_Valley_High_School. shirulashem (talk) 12:02, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Yes, and that's the correct capitalisation and spacing. The SI unit Hertz uses the symbol Hz, and the prefix G represents 1 billion. The SI documents also say that a non-breaking space should be used between the digits and the symbol, thus 1.6 GHz. Cheers, CmdrObot (talk) 23:51, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Ahhh. Interesting. I only saw the revision by using the "last" tab, and it showed 1.6& nbsp;GHz (without the space after the &"), and I didn't realize that & nbsp; (without the space) is a space! My apologies. Thanks for your hard work. shirulashem (talk) 11:34, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Kashrut

WikiThanks
WikiThanks

Thanks for your recent cleanup of kashrut. I took one look at all those changes, and I whimped out. Kudos to you!!!!! Shirulashem (talk) 20:57, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

I'm not convinced if the recent heavy editing to kashrut has been good. I have left a message on WT:JEW to alert other users. I tend to switch off when a single editor makes so many edits in one go without leaving some sort of statement of intent on the talkpage. JFW | T@lk 21:00, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
exactly. i saw it was being so heavily edited, and i was terrified, until i saw that you were trying to straighten all those changes out. Shirulashem (talk) 21:04, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

I don't think I'll be straightening out every single problem. But we can all do our bit. JFW | T@lk 21:46, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

NJ - Municipal Emergency Services

You're off to a great start, and I think it adds to the article at the municipal level. The one thing I would suggest trying to do is to add more sources to support the details. Where are the numbers and models of ambulances and staff members coming from? I do keep an eye on these articles and assume that like me you will be off the computer mid-week. Wishing you the best for a happy and healthy new year. Alansohn (talk) 21:17, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

George Michael

Hello, about me listing George Michael into the category of"English people of Jewish descent" i seem to have not relised that my source to that, that i have cited already long ago has been deleted by some other user, so what i'll do is probably just try to source this information again, and then see if you and all the other users will let me re-list George Michael into that category. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.68.178.246 (talk) 21:47, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Reverted edits by me?

See this [1] - fortunately, you didn't actually revert my edit. Doug Weller (talk) 18:06, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Strange. Maybe the edit summary that Huggle put there was wrong and it put your username there instead. Anyway, sorry about that!! Shirulashem (talk) 18:12, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
Ah, you used Huggle. I'll keep an eye out for that. In fact, the edit I made on Tohd's page involved a mistake reversion he did, and weirdly, the contributions of the editor he reverted don't show the article where he was editing! Doug Weller (talk) 18:39, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

enloe highschool

please stop changing the time of enloe highschool's start and release. this past year it was declared that Enloe High School starts at 7:25 am and lets out at 2:15 pm. on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays, the school starts at 7:55 am and lets out at 2:15 pm.

The time change has been anounced at their website: www.enloehs.wcpss.net

someone else was putting up soapboxing and general discussion about the topic too, placing totally unreiably sourced information, like in the sexiont "this page is woefully misleading".

Vandalism on "Mummy" page

Hi, just though I'd send you a tip about this ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummies ) , I see that you have reverted the page from vandalism before. I'm not too into editing on Wikipedia yet, so I thought I'd leave it to someone who actually know how...

Vermicomposting

Hi Shirulashem, I've left a note explaining my edit in the vermicomposting page. Your court now. Cheers, Gerald. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.253.148.163 (talk) 22:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

You are correct. Sorry for the revert. In the future, it would be helpful if you typed an explanation in the edit summary. The edit summary is there to prevent these kinds of misunderstandings. Shirulashem (talk) 01:39, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

It's not vandalism, see the talk page.

i understand where you're coming from, but even if you're correct that this fund is a fraud, you can't just come out and add a line asserting that in the article. how about adding a section in the article called "controversies" and then put in properly cited instances? i think that might be a better approach. Shirulashem (talk) 20:58, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

I was going to add citations evidencing that the organization had been charged with fraud, though I should've admittedly been using the sandbox. I will add that subsection, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by The Thought-Fox (talkcontribs) 21:00, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

My posts are not spam

Hello, first let me say I appreciate the reason you removed my edit, but if you read the rest of the article you will realise that the whole thing is not to be taken seriously. can you honeslty believe anything in the famous people section is truthful? it's a small article that no one besides the villagers will look at, myself being one of them. please put my edit back in place or leave the article be. thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.210.96.51 (talk) 21:07, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

My Revert

Did you look at the name/what I reverted/or what it redirected to? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.63.41.165 (talkcontribs)

If I may step in to comment that Do not want should indeed redirect to the Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith article. Whether the Do not want redirect itself should exist should be discussed. --RazorICE 14:16, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
I know what if directs there for. However, it would be better if it was a disambiguation page...
Understood, but as RazorICE said, that's something you need to put on the discussion page before just changing it ... especially since it looks like there's been somewhat of a discussion on this topic in the previous edit summaries to the page. Shirulashem (talk) 14:22, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
I didnt look at the talk page of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith to see anything, sorry ._.;

Please do not redirect prison fellowship to prison fellowship international.

Please do not redirect prison fellowship to prison fellowship international. These are two distinct organizations although with very close ties and the same founder.

Actually it is not accurate. I hope this is an acceptable way to answer on this venue. Prison Fellowship is just that. We are not known as Prison Fellowship (USA). Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pfmwiki (talkcontribs) 13:02, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

{{helpme}} HELP REQUEST: Please take a look at the above section regarding Prison Fellowship. There was a dispute going on where editors blanked the content for Prison Fellowship (originally an article that described the American organization known as Prison Fellowship) and made it a redirect to Prison Fellowship International, but other editors contested it saying that they were different organizations. To rectify, I renamed Prison Fellowship to Prison Fellowship (USA) and made Prison Fellowship a disambig page that links to Prison Fellowship International and Prison Fellowship (USA). Now, an editor thinks I was incorrect. Please let me know if I did the right thing. Thanks! Shirulashem (talk) 14:07, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

This is not a good use of {{helpme}}; the tag should be used for how to do things or where to find things, not for settling content disputes. For a content dispute, your best courses of action are to work it out on the talk pages of the affected articles, ask for a third opinion, or open a request for comment. roux ] [x] 16:04, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Golan Heights Mediation

Since there was no way that consensus was going to be reached, I have asked for mediation over the naming of the section. Here is the mediation entry: Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2008-10-20_Syria --Terrillja (talk) 15:02, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Some of the factual errors: you put that a Mahzor is the daily prayer book. It's not ... the Siddur is. The Mahzor is the prayer book used only on holidays

Some of the factual errors: you put that a Mahzor is the daily prayer book. It's not ... the Siddur is. The Mahzor is the prayer book used only on holidays

I don't understand.

There appears to be a clear bias in these writings, if you don't agree that the book is a daily prayer book, then delete the word daily, because it is a prayer book and not the entire line.

As for the statement: In modern day Israel, the office of Chief Rabbi is very influential, it's fact. In the days of the Temple, the High Priest was teh authority, yet you reverted my text.

A clear bias once again.


You didn't like that I stated : After the physical destruction of the Herod's Temple, the murdering of the Levites by militant Jews within the Holy Temple

and replaced it with the original which "After the physical destruction of the temple"

It wasn't just the temple that was destroyed: Jews killed rival Jews and you aren't allowing the public to see that?

You call that bias?Youknowbest (talk) 22:50, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

See what you think

Hi

I'm new at the Wiki editing so bear with me.

What concerns me in a big way is that there appears to be a clear biasin the Jewish topics of this site.

There is no doubt in my mind that the reason is majority rule, but for a balanced source of info, one should be bold enough to accept the other point of view.

Looking at the many areas I have edited, I am blown away how one sided they are.

Example:

The Sadducees were murdered by the Pharisees who destroyed the Temple in Jerusalem and wrote their point of view into Jewish law, called the Talmud. It wasn’t acceptable then nor is it now, but they did it anyway.

The Pharisees became the Rabbinical Jews we now have with their agenda and belief in the Messiah and their Halacha laws. Most Jews today don't follow these Jewish laws and live a similar life to the Sadducees, just without the Temple.

This site neither acknowledges the fact that the Sadducees were murdered and that another side to many Jews exists.

I will continue to monitor how my writings stand but will discontinue if I see a pattern of abuse.

Thanks Youknowbest (talk) 23:07, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Please respect my point of reference and adjust the commentary in good faith.

Please respect my point of reference and adjust the commentary in good faith.

Please change a word if incorrect, but the idea should remain.

Example:

Is it just important to know that the buildings of the Jews were destroyed?

Or, is it as, or even more important to know that lives were lost in the most brutal of ways?

Is it also important to note that once the lives of the priests were lost and their buildings destroyed that the victorious opposition rose to the occasion to write their own laws into history?

Or should we sterilize the entire history of the event and say: "The Buildings were Destroyed"?

This is fact not fiction and even though it may appear to be politically incorrect to remember that Jews killed Jews, for their own political purpose, it still remains a vital part of world history and should be described as such when and where possible.

Youknowbest (talk) 12:53, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Another example of a bias towards Rabbinical teachings

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish ... who are not Jewish by halacha, that is, not Jewish according to Jewish religious law.

Being Jewish by halacha is one thing, but halacha isn't Jewish law according to those Jews that don't believe in the Talmud and Rambam, the sages and the rest of Rabbinical writings, but ONLY believe in the 5 Books of Moses, as commanded by God.

CLEARLY GOD COMMANDED THIS PRIOR TO THE DEATH OF MOSES: Deut 4:2 "Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halacha Halacha is the collective body of Jewish religious law, including biblical law (the 613 mitzvot) and later talmudic and rabbinic law, as well as customs and traditions

.. There are many more than 613 commandments in the 5 Books of Moses ..

A few examples of commandments NOT mentioned in RAMBAM'S 613 choice commandments:

In Leviticus 22:2 God gives Moses a warning for the future Kohen: "Speak unto Aaron and to his sons, that they separate themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, which they hallow unto Me, and that they profane not My holy name: I am the LORD." THIS IS A WARNING THAT THE KOHEN DOESN'T BUILD ANOTHER GOLDEN CALF BECAUSE THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL WANT HIM TO DO IT..... REMEMBER THAT THE HOLY THINGS OF GOD WERE GIVEN TO THE LEVITES NOT TO THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL FOR THEIR PROTECTION AND INHERITANCE......

Deuteronomy 12:19: "Take heed to thyself that thou forsake not the Levite as long as thou livest upon thy land."..........

Exodus 40:15 God promised: "An everlasting priesthood throughout their generations." .........

Numbers 8:19 God promised: "I have given the Levites - They are given to Aaron and to his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the service of the children of Israel in the tent of meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel" .............

Numbers 18,1 "The LORD said unto Aaron: Thou and thy sons and thy fathers house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood."........

Numbers 18:5 God commanded Aaron: "Ye shall keep the charge of the holy things, and the charge of the altar that there be wrath no more upon the children of Israel.".........

Numbers 18:20 God promised: "Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any portion among them; I am thy portion and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.".........

Deuteronomy 10:9 God promised Aaron: "Wherefore Levi hath no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; the LORD is his inheritance."..........

Deuteronomy 18:1 God promised: "The priests the Levites, even all the tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel; they shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and His inheritance and they shall have no inheritance among their brethren; the LORD is their inheritance.".........

Deuteronomy 31:25: "Moses commanded the Levites, that bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying: Take this book of the law, and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.".......

AS YOU KNOW, MOST JEWS ARE NOT LEVITES, ONLY 1 TRIBE IN 12, SO THEY ARE THE MINORITY. CLEARLY THE MAJORITY OF JEWS WERE NOT FAVOURED BY GOD IN HIS INHERITANCE. WOULDN'T YOU THINK THAT WOULD MAKE THEM JEALOUS AND DON'T WE HAVE PROOF OF THAT IN THE 5 BOOKS OF MOSES?

BUT GOD DID PROMISE ALL THE OTHER, 11 TRIBES, THE LAND OF ISRAEL. ARE THEY STILL JEALOUS OF THAT?

Wiki going wacky

Thanks for pointing out the very rude nature of those weilding power and authority over us miserable insignificant contributors.

But I take personal exception, on a serious note, attacks, threats, provocation without merit, on myself and the many hours contributing to this site.

Again, I have a note on my user page for those to see what realy matters and without them, the benefactors, this prject is doomed to fail.

I would strongly suggest that someone out of the circle of rude admin contributors look into this, because I surely will, as I despise people pouring good money into bad.

Quit reverting legitimate edits and calling it 'unconstructive'

Quit reverting legit edits and calling them 'vandalism,' Shirulashem. My edit, this edit [[2]] is NOT "unconstructive" (AKA VANDALISM) and posting rubbish on my user page lecturing me for doing nothing wrong is disrespectful. I would say you have 'vandalized' my talk page... Dont be rude and victimize anons because you dont think they wont stand up to a crusader with an account aiming for some kind of vandalism barnstar. There is something immoral about doing such things...that type of behavior is unacceptable on Wikipedia, everyones constructive edits carry equal weight. You told be to summarize my edit for adding a link (I dont see why one is needed for such a MINOR edit: [[3]]), but I find it ironic you won't tell me why you believe my edit was 'unconstructive' and flat out deleted my legitimate contribution in an effort improve the article? How hypocritical. I would like you to explain to me right here exactly how adding a simple link is considered vandalism. I will tell you right now, I believe it was constructive because it added a link to "stern," which is isnt defined in the article and would be convenient for users seeking knowledge about a related subject about the Chinese Junk (ship). Hope you are satisfied, I'm placing the harmless link back now.

Use reason before you revert 'unconstructive edits' and be respectful to EVERYONE, including anons. Please treat people with respect and dont treat them differenly than you would like to be treated yourself. Thank you.

I reverted ONE edit that you made, and now that I see your explanation, I understand why you made the edit. Like the message I left on your talkpage said, had you included an edit summary, I probably wouldn't have reverted it. That's why the edit summary is there. I'm sorry if I have offended you in any way by posting this message on your talk page: "Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Junk (ship) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. Shirulashem (talk) 22:20, 27 October 2008 (UTC)" I'm not quite sure how that message is "rude", "disrespectful", "immoral", "unacceptable" or "wrong", as you contend, but I guess we all have our own perspective. Shirulashem (talk) 22:36, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Maybe I overreacted. Sorry, I was frustrated because you assumed bad faith in my edit as opposed to using the Wikipedian principle of assuming good faith. Instead you violated the principle and assumed bad faith and wrongfully accused me of something I did not do. Slapping me on the wrist by posting warnings on my Talk page about my "unconstructive edits" after assuming bad faith when you had no evidence that there was actually bad faith. That's rude and disprespectful in my mind.

As the "assume good faith article says: "Making accusations of bad faith can be inflammatory and hence these accusations may be unhelpful in a dispute. It can be seen as a personal attack if bad faith motives are alleged without clear evidence that others' editing is actually in bad faith..."

Before you accuse someone of bad faith (which I found offensive), you should have clear evidence to show that it is actually in bad faith before taking action. I think assuming bad faith is unacceptable, and it is wrong in my opinion (and Wikipedia's as the guidelines say)

Also, it is clear you dont look at the edits before reverting them and labeling them 'unconstrictive' vandalism, which is a problem. Not every edit warrants an explanation. Not all unexplained edit is vandalism and should be deleted. MINOR edits are often summed simply using "m." in the summary box--which does not summarize the edit and does not mean the edit was in bad faith. I suppose you would have deleted my edit if I did that as well. It should also be known that vandals can disguise their bad faith edits using a misleading summary...so using a summary DOES NOT indicate whether an edit is in good faith or bad faith.

Just please dont assume bad faith, it is insulting to the people who dedicate their time to make Wikipedia better. Look at the edits you are reverting and follow Wikipedia guidlines and policies.

Thank you.

red auxiliary numbers

I see that you have David Eppstein's interests in mind. Maybe you can answer this set of questions -- in the red auxiliary numbers discussion page :

David,

What are you thinking of when you ask for additional footnotes? Be specific! The "Crest of the Peacock" citation, offers direct chapter and verse related to three practice problems that Ahmes detailed to learn the method. Have you worked even one of the problems, i.e. RMP 23? Beyond Ahmes' practice problems you may rhetorically7 claim that red auxiliary numbers were not applied to create optimized, but not an optimal, 2/n table --- but if you do - you must be specific!

That is, rhetoric is one thing. Mathematics and science are two deeper subjects. I have shown that every 51 2/n problem followed the three RM- 21, 22, and 23 practice problems. Ahmes easily practiced selecting LCM's to solve a series of unit fractions summed to a given number, as anyone can see by working the practice problems. Like arithmetic progressions, red auxiliary number selections Ahmes used a central formula, and altered its parameters working problems forwards, backwards, and in the middle.

Moreover, all 26 EMLR 1/p and 1/pq conversion problems also practiced selecting non-opimtal LCM's, a second level that confirms the scientific hypothesis that Ahmes had used the red auxiliary numbers to create his 2/n table and complete the conversion of any n/p or n/pq vulgar fraction to an 'optimized' - but not always optimal -- Egyptian fraction remainder.

The remainder topic is a subject is also critical to the red auciliary debate, another issue that you may be silently protesting, asking for a 'sky hook' to hang your algorithmic view of Ahmes' arithmetic. Ahmes used no central algorithms, despite several U.K. universities suggesting that you are on a productive path.

The best, and likely the only path, to decode Ahmes RMP is to work every one of his 84 problems and 51 2/n table entries, forwards,. backwards and in the middle, changing any parameter in each formula that entered the text.

Best Regards,

~Milogardner

Hello Shirulashem

I have added to the Aaron descussion board, as you suggested, comments that I consider fair and accurate to add to the article

Do you care to comment on how I should proceed and to avoid another humbub?

Last November reverts

At Last November you reverted User:Robert pillgraham several times after he removed a proposed deletion tag. You warned him three times that if he did not stop removing the tag, he would be blocked. I'd just like to point out that you are mistaken. Any user is allowed to remove a proposed deletion tag at any time for any reason (there are very rare exceptions to this such as when it's in the case of vandalism or bad faith). I have removed your warnings to him. Thank you, Metros (talk) 23:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello Shirulashem,

I would greatly appreciate any assistance you could offer me on a issue. On Oct 12 I did recieve a message from you about a article I made a edit on Blood Done Sign My Name. Could you help me with a constructive edit that will not be deleted Thanks in advance Ssakcaj (talk) 23:17, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Sure. I took a look at the edit history of that page and there were so many back and forth edits that I'm not quite sure what you're looking to add to the article. Please let me know what changes you want to make. Shirulashem (talk) 23:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi Shirulashem, Sorry I am so new to this.Don't know if I am suppose to click on talk to respond to you are not. Anyway hope you get this. I will try and make this short, The author of the book Blood Done Sign My Name has lied about the facts

and the sources.I know I was there. I am in the book.Since the book
was released I established a website with some the records of proof
about the misrepresented facts in the book. I want the public to have 

knowledge of true facts, not a bunch of fictional words used to sell a book. So I added the sentance For the truth about Blood Done Sign My Name see refrences Tim Tyson Exposed

and then I added a external link in the references to the site.

Maybe I should not have made the sentance bold. I am trying to look at this with a postive point.I also have a question as to weather are not anyone can use Wiki to promote Books, or movies Something that is being done here. The movie is suppose to be released in 2009. Any suggestions? Ssakcaj (talk) 17:01, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
