Edit Summaries
[[1] Please try to use them - with so many reversions on that page it is the best way to protect yourself from unwarranted action. It might be a pain to fill them in sometimes, but if other people can't easily interpret your reasons for reverting you are in danger of being sanctioned by someone. Cheers. Weakopedia (talk) 09:47, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
That was your fourth revert today and has been duly reported here. Letting you know so you can self-revert and possibly avoid a block. Yworo (talk) 23:29, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer
Hello. 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 protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is 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.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 05:16, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Illuminati Eye?
How ironic! Or is that intentional? Congrats for becoming part of the central (edit) planning authority on "Libertarian" WP! Anyway, I wanted to comment on how "brave" you were deleting all of debt-based monetary system. It takes a lot of courage (and skill!) to pick up an eraser and rub. You keep rubbing on Peter Schiff and Tea Party too. You seem to be rubbing a little too vigorously all over the place. I'd ease off a little on the rubbing if I was you. But then, clearly I'm not you, am I? Thank the one true God for that (which isn't yours!). Ha Ha Ha! - CentralBankersAreBlindLikeMoles (talk) 11:39, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- For someone who purports to be well-versed in private property theories, you certainly do continue to express ignorance in rather basic tenets --- foremost that the internal structure of PRIVATE COMPANIES are NOT in any way comparable to [the "evil" of] governments. I know it helps you to rationalize your jackass behavior, but Mises and Rothbard -- and more recently, Rand Paul -- and basically all of your libertarian heroes would celebrate Wikipedia's right to run their business in whatever way they see fit (regardless of how "totalitarian" their "central planning authority" may seem to you). Making the effort to be honest with yourself is probably the first step to getting people to take you more seriously, but it seems you're rather content with your laughingstock status as a hypocritical clown. BigK HeX (talk) 12:59, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- Also, you might be interested to know that no one fears the "power" of your "information". People just don't like your ramblings distracting from legitimate information. BigK HeX (talk) 13:14, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Edit warring again
Please note that you appear to have broken 3RR on Criticism of fractional-reserve banking. Please remember that every removal is a partial revert to your stub. Yworo (talk) 15:12, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- You can try to game the system like that if you like. My guess is that you'll fool no one. BigK HeX (talk) 15:18, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- I don't appreciate that accusation. If you'll look at the edit history for G. Edward Griffin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), you'll see I've been an editor of that article since December. That's because it's a subject I'm interested in, just as you are. Yworo (talk) 15:31, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- How I found the article is immaterial. I added the article to my watchlist recently because it is a subject area in which I am interested and have been editing in since at least December. Now, if I added some article in a topic you are interested in but which I am not, that would be wikistalking. But you can't seriously think that you can game the system to claim I can't edit a new article in an area I'm already interested in simply because you were there first! Yworo (talk) 15:45, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- IIRC, I found it through Federal Reserve System (an article I've edited) -> Criticism of the Federal Reserve (which I've not edited yet) via the see also section of the latter article. Yworo (talk) 15:55, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Third party in WP:POORSRC
This is intended for named third-party individuals. If someone has an opinion about banks that use fractional-reserve, that's just an opinion and not an attack on an individual. Just as for example not liking blue-suede shoes is not an attack on some specific blue-suede-shoe wearer. You are misusing the guideline. Griffin's opinions are being sourced. That's it. Yworo (talk) 19:55, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
- You can choose to read the policy in whatever way you like. The actual words there are "third party" and I am quite sure that the spirit of the policy is very certainly aimed at preventing the use of unreliable sources as coatracks from which to hang dubious criticisms. Between my reading of the actual policy guideline and your presumptions of what you believe to be implied there, I'll stand by the actual words. BigK HeX (talk) 20:00, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
thanks :D
I saw your post on the AN/I and I appreciate your comments. Nice working with you, too. Here ya go: [2]. Malke2010 22:34, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
- No problem at all. Just thought you (and others) might feel better to know that your civility -- even in difficult edits -- is being appreciated. Best wishes! BigK HeX (talk) 22:39, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
Wow
Hey, thanks so much. That's awfully nice of you and I appreciate it. Once I've engaged, I really consider it my responsibility as an editor to stick around an article even though the tenets of WP:3O don't require or assume that a person would do such a thing. Anyway, thank you again. — e. ripley\talk 16:58, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Income tax
First, let me thank you for your good edits.
The key adjective in the Wilson bit is "progressive". The earlier income tax was a flat tax. Wilson's tax was, I think, the first income tax to tax the rich at a higher rate than the poor. Rick Norwood (talk) 17:28, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks!
- As far as the earlier taxation: Revenue Act of 1862 ... has 3 brackets (under $600, $600 - $10,0000, and over $10,000). A modification in 1864 added another bracket, I think. BigK HeX (talk) 17:34, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
Rand Paul
Pay attention to what you're doing before edit warring.--William S. Saturn (talk) 16:47, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
Christian
I'm all for anything that can avoid an edit war, but the major speakers for the American Right use the word Christian so often that it seems to me that "Judeo-Christian" is dodging the truth of the matter. As for "socialism", I've explained my objection in Talk. It isn't that the Right is not anti-socialist, it is that the word "socialism" has come to be used so losely it is meaningless. Rick Norwood (talk) 17:36, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I thought about splitting my comment into the two sections, but am under the impression that most people only read the bottom of the Talk page. Rick Norwood (talk) 18:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- Possibly, you're right. If you want to restore your comment, feel free to do so. I think having the two issues addressed separately keeps the discussion from wandering all over the place. BigK HeX (talk) 19:00, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
TPM
We've had this edit or a very similar one show up before. [3]. Take a look at the talk page. I wanted to pare down the Commentaries section and also, I think we should pare down the Polls section. The article is really getting outsized. Thanks.Malke2010 23:54, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- I noticed your efforts (and your great work at consensus seeking). I didn't notice anything objectionable in your proposals. Guess I'll see what the end result looks like. BigK HeX (talk) 00:36, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks. If you think it's okay, mention it on the talk page. Once we get an idea of where everybody is at with it, we can change it. Would be nice to get the article down sized a bit. There will always be more stuff to put in down the line, I'm sure. And be sure and mention where we should trim the Polls section. Malke2010 00:45, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Conservatism in the United States
Some modern historians have tried to trace a history of conservatism, e.g., Viereck, Kirk, Rossiter, Allitt. Modern conservatives themselves are eager to extend the history of their movement before the 1950s or whether it existed. Unfortunately there is no agreement on the definition or narrative of conservatism. TFD (talk) 17:42, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- I don't think this is being clearly conveyed in the article at all. I am about to go on a tagging spree there. BigK HeX (talk) 17:51, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
Discuss
Can you send me an email from my talk page? I would like to discuss our favorite sock-puppeteer in a more private forum. Thanks, LK (talk) 08:41, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
Talk page revert
Please review WP:TPG and don't do as you did on Talk:Conservatism in the United States again. Thank you and have a nice day. Soxwon (talk) 20:50, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
- You refactored other's comments w/o their permission and with no obvious reason as listed by acceptable reasons on WP:TPG. Therefore, I reverted your edits using Twinkle. Soxwon (talk) 20:59, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
- Although I have not been able to concentrate on it lately, I have been active on that talk page in the past and usually keep an eye on it. As for the vandalism and reasons given, *shrugs* I was probably a bit quick to hit the vandalism part, but honestly, it's probably just best to leave a quick message on the editors talkpage and letting them do it themselves IMO (less confusion, no chance for changing meaning by accident, and you aren't at fault). Soxwon (talk) 21:41, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
tertiary source
When you say we require a tertiary source do you mean one which connects mass killings to communism? mark nutley (talk) 22:27, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- It's fine if the secondary sources do that. But, a tertiary source would help us know where there is broad agreement in the field between the secondary sources, and where there is sharp disagreement. A tertiary source that surveys works which includes Rummel (Valentino, etc) would help the article immensely. BigK HeX (talk) 22:29, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- I think this may be what your after, i have only glanced through it as i just finished doing my accounts and my eyes have melted :) [4] These guys compare and discuss quite a few of the people who work in this field. mark nutley (talk) 23:54, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
1rr
- If he does, I will plead the template; I had my one revert, and I discussed it. Incidentally, have you encountered m. nutley and OpenFuture together on other pages? Yhey have common verbal tics. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 17:22, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- I believe this past week has been my first encounter. Oddly enough, the only clear 1RR violation has been OpenFuture when he reverted my edit and then yours. In theory, if you wanted to play it safe, you could self-revert and then have OpenFuture self-revert as well. BigK HeX (talk) 17:27, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Oh .. one unfortunate note though. I don't think WP:OWN would override a 1RR violation, had one occurred. Though I still think there's a better than 50/50 chance you're OK. BigK HeX (talk) 17:30, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- An interesting idea about an armistice. But let's see if they can come up with any reason to keep the dictionary definitions first. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 17:31, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Actually Openfuture`s is only 1r, both edits are unbroken mark nutley (talk) 17:58, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

I have nominated Mass killings under Communist regimes, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mass killings under Communist regimes (3rd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
