Note, I've changed you're edit to the infobox and replaced it with "Non-ideological"... It sounds about right, don't you think? You may disagree but hegemonic and authoritarianism are not ideologies, they are something even more diffuse. --[[User:Trust Is All You Need|TIAYN]] ([[User talk:Trust Is All You Need|talk]]) 19:59, 6 February 2014 (UTC) |

Hi there, I just noticed the above article. User 77.49.58.129 has been doing some sourced edits, while User:Malbin210 has been reverting constantly with no justification. I can see you also got in between. I suspect also sockuppetry from User:Malbin210, creating multiple accounts to avoid 3RR. I think we need an Administrator to put an end to it. This article containts lots of inaccuracies coming mostly from Albanian editors (no suprise here). Thanks. [[User:Astarti34|Astarti34]] ([[User talk:Astarti34|talk]]) 21:46, 11 February 2014 (UTC) |

:Yes, I first reverted [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Albania&diff=594910468&oldid=594886667 here yesterday] thinking it was a simple case of restoring a deleted, properly sourced, fact and left a message on User:Malbin210's page about claiming to revert "vandalism" in an edit summary that clearly wasn't vandalism. Today, after seeing the fact was removed once again I checked the page history and noticed that it was just a small piece of a larger on-going edit war. I'm planning to notify [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring]] shortly.--[[User:WilliamThweatt|William Thweatt]] <sup>[[User talk:WilliamThweatt|Talk]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/WilliamThweatt|Contribs]]</sup> 00:27, 12 February 2014 (UTC) |
Revision as of 00:27, 12 February 2014
Welcome! Hello, WilliamThweatt, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place Register in MonAppreciated your expansion on register in the Mon article. What do you think about just changing the name of that section to "Register" (since it's not about phonation per se--i.e., not about voicing--but only about phonation differences on vowels as a contrastive feature)? By the way, "tone" in Burmese is partly a phonation thing too--with modal ("clear"), breathy ("heavy") and creaky tones. I did some instrumental phonetic studies, but the actual nature of the three "tones" never really came clear to me. Where you draw the line between tone languages and register languages has never been clear to me, where either might use pitch, pitch contour, phonation types and length in various ways to distinguish words. ...Anyway, good job, thanks. · rodii · 17:18, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
Commons POTY identity confirmationI confirm I am the same user as 69.225.87.189 --William Thweatt Talk | Contribs 04:01, 18 February 2007 (UTC) You are now a ReviewerHello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged revisions, underwent a two-month trial which ended on 15 August 2010. Its continued use is still being discussed by the community, you are free to participate in such discussions. Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use. Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages. For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't grant you status nor change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles 05:18, 15 November 2010 (UTC) Welcome backBy sheer coincidence (or sheer sockpuppetry) I have also returned to WP around the same time after a long absence. When I saw your name pop up on my neglected watchlist, it was definitely a welcome blast from the past. I've enjoyed your previous writing and I wonder if you would care to collaborate on a Cambodian article or two? I'm up for a low pressure joint project or two, if you are. Welcome back in any case. I hope you stick around. Cheers, Paxse (talk) 10:26, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
Non-roman script cluttering leadsWilliam, thanks for your work on Bulgaria. I have footnoted non-roman scripts that occur at the outset of en.WP articles whenever I see them; indeed more ... sometimes even roman-script original-language equivalents. If the latter are of very secondary utility to English-speakers, the former are a downright irritant. Few English-speakers read non-roman scripts, and they are accessible in the very first footnote if of some particular use. Thanks. Tony (talk) 07:02, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
Your request for rollbackHi WilliamThweatt. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Salvio Let's talk about it! 12:30, 25 March 2012 (UTC) Some baklava for you!

DYK for Northern Khmer dialectDYK for Stockton Cannery Strike of 1937DYK nomination of Jru' languageHello! Your submission of Jru' language at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! The Bushranger One ping only 19:06, 29 June 2012 (UTC) List of sovereign statesI don't view Cook Islands and Niue as sovereign states. They are like Puerto Rico and French Polynesia, incorporated territories and have succession rights. But that does not grant sovereignty to those. Remember definition of Sovereign states on Wikipedia: A sovereign state is classically defined as a state with a defined territory on which it exercises internal and external sovereignty, a permanent population, a government, and the capacity to enter into relations with other sovereign states. I don't think those exercises internal and external sovereignty. Neither do they have the rights to grant citizenship to their people. They haven't declared independence either, why do you think they are sovereign states? You can hold a "referendum" on wikipedia if you want. 183.91.13.72 (talk) 14:50, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
DYK for Jru' languageReporting to AIVis appropriate when you have exhausted all resources and only a block can resolve the matter. Please learn how to communicate with (misbehaving) users.

Green papaya saladI saw that you specified cherry tomato as one of the ingredients in Cambodian papaya salad. Are you sure about this? In Thailand the much more meaty plum tomatoes are used. I can't really imagine the watery and non-meaty cherry tomatoes being used in this dish at all. - Takeaway (talk) 10:20, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
New page for petrollingIf you don't mind can you petrol my new article Jaya Suriya Engineering College. Ramesh Ramaiah talk 18:35, 9 July 2012 (UTC) Speedy deletion declined: Joseph UlianoHello WilliamThweatt. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Joseph Uliano, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:37, 11 July 2012 (UTC) BulgariaWill, I didn't know where to leave you a note, so I'm using this page. Can you please not change Bulgaria's page and replace Formation section with independence, Bulgaria's history goes well beyond 1878 and starting with this date is not consistent with Wikipedia's standards. Please, see countries like Czech republic, Poland, Germany, France, etc. these all have formation and not independence. Thus, kindly stop changing Bulgaria's Formation section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.202.157.163 (talk) 20:52, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Formal mediation has been requestedThe Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Bulgaria". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 6 August 2012. Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you. Request for mediation rejectedThe request for formal mediation concerning Bulgaria, to which you were listed as a party, has been declined. To read an explanation by the Mediation Committee for the rejection of this request, see the mediation request page, which will be deleted by an administrator after a reasonable time. Please direct questions relating to this request to the Chairman of the Committee, or to the mailing list.

This note is going out to wikipedia members who have participated in Burma/Myanmar name changing polls in the past. It does not include banned members nor those with only ip addresses. Thank you.

Czarkoff (talk) 18:02, 28 August 2012 (UTC) Bulgaria disputeWill, why are you so stubborn with this change? Most other countries have listed their important dates in this box, why not Bulgaria? And it is not as the it did not exist for these 400 years, even on maps in XVII century the area was refereed as Bulgaria... let alone the cultural, tradition, etc. continuation. Why are you doing this?

/soon/ vs /soun/ 'zero'You mentioned that other sources declare it as being phonemically /soun/, could you provide a citation? I'm having no luck verifying your claim (in Huffman or Jenner), and it's worth noting that spelling and pronunciation aren't forcibly correlated. The vowel in clip provided on this website sounds rather flat more than like the diphthong in the English word 'tone'. — Io Katai ᵀᵃˡᵏ 22:58, 25 June 2013 (UTC) Hmong clusteringThanks for your help with that language article. – SJ + 14:55, 15 July 2013 (UTC) TampuanIs the ⟨a⟩ in Tampuon really pronounced [u]?

TasksHey, here's a gnomish task for you, if you're interested:
I'm gradually doing all lang articles, but won't get past level 1. I won't have the time for 2, and in most cases don't have the knowledge for 3. — kwami (talk) 23:58, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
FYI, I've added support for "linglist" in the ref field. Only useful for a few extinct languages, but Ethn. is gradually shifting support of extinct languages over to Linglist. — kwami (talk) 00:42, 14 August 2013 (UTC) HindiThe E17 figures for Manak Hindi are not actually for Manak Hindi, but rather based on speaker identification. The Indian census makes that clear, but the nuances are lost in Ethn. — kwami (talk) 22:17, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
