Gender roles in childhood
I removed the {{POV}} template that you added to Gender roles in childhood per "When to Remove, rule 2," because without a Talk page section or any stated reason in the edit summary, it's difficult to know what issues to address, or what you see as problematic or lacking. I don't find the article POV (although it's partly OR, and also needs additional references) but if you still think it is, please readd the template, along with a link to a Talk page section where you discuss your reasons, and perhaps a helpful edit summary as well. Cordially, Mathglot (talk) 07:27, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Domestic violence, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Normalization (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.

RE User Karst
Sorry about my initial long winded essay Drmies and you rightly pulled me up on. It was 7 o'clock in the morning here in Aus and decided to write an essay for some reason first thing. I've edited it to be much more concise and straight forward. Also reticent to condemn Karst, as someone who had an initial battleground-ish thing with and others, especially without very clear proof of him being at fault. Nuro msg me 03:11, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Tell you what, it's past 10 PM here and my old brain is a bit tired, possibly impacting my reading skills. Next time, we'll synchronize our watches and we'll get along much better, no doubt. Drmies (talk) 03:47, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

I only noticed now and I am stoked to see a MSW guy. Do you work as Social Worker in the Army. If so what are main duties of a social worker in Army. From where did you complete your MSW. Not to be weird but I would like to talk to you off-wiki(through emails) about the career and current opportunities in your place. Do reply, at least in my talk page, for the time being we can talk through talk page.117.241.21.168 (talk) 20:04, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
I am living for now will look later for a reply. I will check later from an other network, hoping response.117.241.21.168 (talk) 20:40, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Social workers do lots of things, both in the armed services and in the civilian world. But social workers in the Army do the same basic thing social workers do everywhere, work to improve the lives of our clients. That's what great about the field. TimothyJosephWood 21:19, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Hey big thanks for responding.
- Does the duties given in Social work in the military reflect your work or would you say.- yeah that's what we do or thats what I know military social workers do in general.117.213.19.188 (talk) 22:12, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- By Master's in Social work with a concentration in family practice and non-profit administration, The non-profit administration part you mean Community and Social Development.(https://socialwork.uky.edu/msw/msw-program-curriculum/)117.213.19.188 (talk) 22:17, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- How is the job market over there for social work graduates. In which all fields are social workers employed more often. 117.213.19.188 (talk) 22:23, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Certainly if you compare the official description, the article is very bad. But otherwise no, my experience is that most social workers in the military are involved in substance abuse treatment and case management, especially as it applies to veterans. We have a fairly well known problem with substance abuse as self medication of combat related trauma.
- Non-profit admin is more...well...admin, doing grant proposals and running the business side of a non profit. Social workers are employed everywhere, I'm not really up on the latest labor market statistics.
- Also, keep in mind, that military social workers are officers, meaning that you would almost certianly have to give up home country citizenship. TimothyJosephWood 22:28, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Try to keep an eye on that IP group from social work if you can. One of them is asking some odd questions on my talk and is adamant about talking off-wiki. Seems scammy. My OPSEC is tingling.
- Hey don't worry nothing scammy - I know it might be weird for some. For current comfortability don't have to be off-wiki.117.213.19.188 (talk) 22:49, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Well. You're a bit more savvy than I figured. Don't take it personally. I'm immediately suspicious about anyone who asks about my military service, which is exactly how I should be. TimothyJosephWood
- Its all right.117.213.19.188 (talk) 23:14, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
I would say that crisis intervention makes the topic a bit more cerebral than it is in real life. Like a lot about social work, it is more about your relationship with your client than anything else. Crisis management is different for different people in different situations.
Non-profits are a special class of organization under the US tax code. They operate similar to a business but can receive tax free contributions, and usually serve some civic purpose. The center piece of the courses was grant writing, which is how non-profits get a lot of their funding. Grants are a way for governmental organizations, other nonprofits, and foundations funnel money to achieve a societal goal. Grant writing is a way of making a professional proposal to get this money.
I'm not the guy to talk to about psychosocial assessment. Personally, I think it's a buzzword and doesn't mean very much in real life. Basically, it means figuring out whats going on with your client. People try to formalize it, and make it more complicated than it really is. Again, it's all about forming a relationship with your client. TimothyJosephWood 23:24, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Lets say i am an addict and as a social worker what will be your main duties in assessment and treatment {work done should be reported to the officer in charge of the program -right, what world be the main process points). Harm reduction, is it really practiced in US. Opinion-wise does it work.117.213.19.188 (talk) 23:36, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- My first priority would be establishing a rapport. I would ask you how you are, how is your family, your job. I would spend an hour or more talking about what you wanted to talk about, to learn what you want to talk about. If your addiction is important to you, then you will talk about your addiction. If your family is important to you then that will provide a window into why we're here talking about your addiction. I would not try at all in the first meeting to assess you, or diagnose you. I would just try to get to know you.
- People are odd like that.
- Does it work? I have no idea. Research in the field is of very poor quality right now. And there are far to few people who would admit we don't have good research. That's a systemic problem in the field. We need good researchers.TimothyJosephWood 02:46, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

And, the first one edited until s/he was blocked, then the second one suddenly appeared and edited as a different person? Not the first time it has happened. Jim1138 (talk) 08:14, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Jim1138. Yeah, It's a bit odd. At this point I'm leaning toward thinking they may be someone interested in a student visa, who figured social work was as good a place to start as any. TimothyJosephWood 10:23, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- He certainly isn't making many friends here. Jim1138 (talk) 17:57, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Jim1138, actually, now that I look at it, this def is pretty strange. The understanding of 3RR, yet the lack of understanding to not know the edit was inappropriate and wouldn't stand. I dunno. TimothyJosephWood 23:14, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

I have had a few interesting cases Claudebone & Wordfunk. Dealing with that kind of event takes way too much time and is exhausting. Poor Barek hasn't edited much since then. I'm rather burned out too. I wish warning messages would focus the addressee's attention more on the issue somehow. Jim1138 (talk) 01:02, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
- Being from Karnataka doesn't have anything to do with anything what you say Jim1138. If anything your edits in that page is disruptive and highly flammable. You are the one who is being bizarre, you are teetering around and going beyond certain lengths to prove your points, certain libelous remarks and actions in Social talk page. There is no question in whether its two or a single person who is conversing in this section, so don't bring your rants. But if that's what you do that's what you do.- (Certainly making no friends....needy to get assured?). Timothyjosephwood this edit was done thinking it was appropriate and no exact details were given until you mentioned why it was reverted along with my other comments. Actions of Jim1138 were beyond odd for an responsible editor and it was notified with reversal policy and when these actions were persistent, they where simply notified to the anti-vandalism board. The editors own edit history are absurd at times if looked up by anyone who has the time and energy. Also Jim1138 I didn't know you blocked my IP that time.-Nice to know your actions in biting and harassing when someone doesn't agree with your opinions. "Poor Barek hasn't edited much since then. I'm rather burned out too. I wish warning messages would focus the addressee's attention more on the issue somehow".- This just simply shows how slippery this person is in conveying, bullying and re-framing incidents.117.241.20.244 (talk) 18:18, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
- Jim1138, this might help you or not. Its all in how you accept it. Your online racism and anger shouldn't be forced in Wikipedia. You can argue with someone if you find something is wrong. But the argument shouldn't be against the editor, it should be for the content. If you are burned and exhausted using your user-rights or gaming the system isn't the solution. Leave the topic to be handled by an another editor with the project. If you revert something it should have an explanation that people can relate with WP:COMMON. Don't delete articles as soon as they are published if an editor asks for time give them at-least 20 days.(It wouldn't crumble your world). Please don't consider this as patronizing or something that diminishes your value. This is a friendly and patient approach.(The above paragraph is not, it is just an appropriate response to your rants) There is also a clear line between being bold and being a bully. The positive thing about you is that you post notices in the user pages, but in future also post specific guides or specific errors made in editing or decision taking within the policy structure. I will also try to learn more about the policies, hope your help would be there.117.241.20.244 (talk) 18:18, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
- Timothyjosephwood, thank you for being open and generous with the talk. You have some remarkable insights "If your addiction is important to you, then you will talk about your addiction. If your family is important to you then that will provide a window into why we're here talking about your addiction." that was really helpful in clearing doubts regarding how to approach a person rather than through a preset of questionnaire's. If possible look into Grant writing, if there are gaps of information and if time allows do fill them. You should really get into writing more related articles and post links in user page.117.241.20.244 (talk) 18:18, 16 April 2016 (UTC)
- It's not that you are from Kerala, it is that all of the disruptive edits are from Kerala. Understand the difference? Your trolling and use of the racism card on my talk page is quite telling. I could understand that you might think one or two people accusing you of trolling, vandalism, and disruption are psychotic... Say, what is it called when one believes that everyone is out to get them? - WP:ANI#IP-hopping vandal/troll from Kerala, India still at it. Need a permanent solution.. Jim1138 (talk) 00:22, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
- Well it seems like you have beef with someone, i think that's the reason for your trolling. Timothy seems to be a better editor, and you wouldn't stop with these accusations, I am sure. Out of respect to Timothy I guess I shouldn't entertain you anymore. I have seen that "troll from Kerala, India" - what can i say. It was done by a Softlavender right the same one that uses excessive user-rights and reversions without checks from the social work talk page along with you
. Take your time to understand whats been said before. - Attack the edit if it isn't passable. Don't attack the editors or an editor.117.241.22.57 (talk) 10:00, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

Pomeranian Library
Looking at the German and Polish equivalent pages there is enough material for an English WP page - the Icelandic WP has an entry.

Hi Timothy, greetings. I saw your recommendation for a speedy deletion of an article I just started. Yes, you are correct, I did essentially copy and paste. However, I will re-write it when I have a chance. Or perhaps another Wikipedian will come along and help us. Best Regards, Nate — Preceding unsigned comment added by RNLockwood (talk • contribs) 02:17, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- RNLockwood, Any way I can help lemme know. TimothyJosephWood 02:22, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
Please contact editors first, before you tag their work with "speedy deletion." It was a work in progress, and now I have to start from square one. No thanks to you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RNLockwood (talk • contribs) 02:27, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
- RNLockwood, I've tagged a few articles for speedy deletion, so I'm not entirely sure which one you're referring to, but if you "essentially copy and paste" then it was likely a copyright violation and should be deleted immediately. TimothyJosephWood 03:12, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi. I've declined your speedy as the article is not written in a promotional manner, and the book is by two notable authors. An article about a not yet released book by a non-notable author could be taken to be promo despite the style, but this one as part of a series, and with its authorship, is bound to attract advance notice. The referencing could be better, but that's not a speedy matter. Peridon (talk) 10:48, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
enra
I strongly object to your "speedy deletion" tag for the page enra. I took great care in working on this page to make the information factual. I recognize that some of it could be improved to better meet style and formatting guidelines, but it hardly seems reasonable to suggest that the entire page should be removed for a group that has such a notable history and recognized in international media. Rather than suggesting the page be removed, it would be far more helpful if you offered constructive criticism, added notes, or implemented stylistic changes that you feel are necessary. Kerfuffle8 (talk) 16:02, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
- Retracted. Cleanup tags added. Addressed on the talk. TimothyJosephWood 16:47, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
Douglas Self
Thanks for your support on ANI. I don't know whether an admin is allowed to tell me "Do not recreate the article until it cites at least two independent reliable sources" in regard of a deleted article. But there's no need for an article to meet WP:GNG from the outset if it has potential to do so in the future. And failure to meet WP:GNG is definitely not grounds for a speedy del if the article makes a WP:CCS. So the original deletion was against policy. I'd have hoped that admins would follow the rules properly. There are probably thousands of articles that don't meet WP:GNG yet. I don't know why Douglas Self got picked on and deleted in less than an hour. It's never happened to me before and wasn't a pleasant experience. I appreciate your help. SmilingFace (talk) 17:04, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
- SmilingFace Everybody messes up. You can see here where people have disagreed with my speedy nominations. I usually 100% retract as long as the argument isn't patently silly (No, sorry, there is not a dire public information need to have an article on your ultimate frisbee team.)

regarding Marketplace Radio Program
Hi there - really appreciate your response on the talk page for Marketplace (Radio Program) as we have struggled to accurately update information about our broadcast programs. I apologize in advance for this battery of questions, but I am new to this process. I think a bunch of the outdated content was recently deleted on our page (rather than the edits I suggested being made). However, the brief content that remains is still not very accurate or comprehensive. I completely understand the need to offer unbiased sources (and not merely our own website) as much as possible. That said, the information that I really care about correcting and adding is pretty bland and factual in nature. For example, Marketplace is a suite of business news programs, which includes four different broadcast shows (which are clearly defined on our website along with current host names). And each show is available as a podcast. This doesn't seem to be adequately represented at present, and I am not sure what other source I could cite other than our own website, to accurately provide this correct information. This seems like straightforward information (the name of a show and its host; or when and how our content is aired) and not particularly subjective. Isn't it best provided by our own website, as we know what our shows are and our hosts? I am more than happy to hear suggestions of other ways we might provide a reference to this information, but our website or the website of our parent org (American Public Media) have the most current and accurate information by far. The staff listing on the right sidebar is also outdated, but other than pointing to our own Cast & Crew page on our site, who else could I reference for that correct info? Our website has the only Marketplace staff listing that I am aware of. On a related note, there is a Wikipedia page for the host of our evening program: Kai Ryssdal. We would like to have his photo changed to his current headshot (which is on our website and the website of our parent org) but don't see a way to change an image. Any advice you could give on having a photo updated would be much appreciated as well. Again, sorry to bombard you. But it has been difficult to navigate these intricacies. And I am very happy to work one-on-one with any Wikipedia contributor to provide accurate information for our pages. Jmhatfield (talk) 18:32, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
- Jmhatfield, you should be starting this discussion on the Marketplace talk page, rather than a user talk page. That way, people who are interested in the subject will see it and be able to comment and give thoughts/advice. If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 18:54, 21 April 2016 (UTC)Template:Z163
- @ Primefac, no worries. I've got it.
- @ Jmhatfield, I'm going to try to look into this more this evening. You are correct in that primary sources are acceptable, particularly in cases where the content is uncontroversial, and particularly in cases where there are no secondary sources available. If you want to look in the interim, I would suggest looking for information online about them individually, and following that route back to Marketplace. Seems to be the route followed to locate the Mediabistro source on Kai Ryssdal. But if that's a no go then the primary source is all we're left with.
- Listing the individual shows in principal seems relevant. I tend toward stopping short of listing things like air times. That's getting into WP:Promotional territory a little bit.
The picture thing can be a little tricky. Pictures on articles need to be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. To do this, if you are the owner of the image, you generally have to license it for free public use, meaning that you lose ownership of it. That's an issue for you and your leadership to decide. There are certain exceptions, such as the use of the Marketplace Logo (which incidentally, is subject of a related discussion you may want to comment on). If you want to use the image under a non-public license, may be best to contact someone over at wikimedia commons. I'm hardly a copyright expert. At the end of the day, the easiest thing is for the owner of the image to release it under a free public license.See below.- Again, I'm going to look into this more later today, so we'll see where it goes. As always feel free to ask away for any questions you may have. TimothyJosephWood 19:25, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Jmhatfield or Jeni, who I assume this is. I began looking into sources and made a small article on Lizzie O'Leary, as she was the first host without an article. There are a few things you can do to help with this, mostly because I don't know enough about what I'm looking for to find it:
- Place of birth
- Date of birth
- Full birth name
- Date of graduation from Williams College
- Also please confirm that she is American
- When you sort out whether you can license the headshots of your hosts for free public use, a head shot of O'Leary is also needed, and you may as well address the same issues and information for Ben Johnson, Millie Jefferson, and Deborah Clark.
- Also, it would be helpful to have general information on the history of the program. Where was it first created, what were the major studio moves, dates of major partnerships and changes, etc. At least per this article there was a major shake up at some point. Again, I'm not going to use you as a source, but without knowing what I'm looking for it's doubtful I'll be able to easily find sources. TimothyJosephWood 23:54, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I'm an administrator on both Commons and Wikipedia, so I may be able to help here on the photo issue. There's a somewhat incorrect statement above, although the gist of it is correct: "Pictures on articles need to be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. To do this, if you are the owner of the image, you generally have to license it for free public use, meaning that you lose ownership of it."
- You don't "lose ownership" of a picture when you grant a free license, although you do give up some control of where and how it is used. Commons does not ask anyone to sign over their copyrights. The copyright holder retains the copyright.
- Under U.S. law, the copyright holder for a photo is the photographer unless rights have been explicitly signed over. In the case of Marketplace, I have no idea whether the photographer retains copyright or has signed it over. If the copyright holder is the same person as the uploader, things are simpler, because they can grant a free license as part of the uploading process. If not, see commons:COM:OTRS which explains how the copyright holder can send an email granting a license on one or more photos, which someone else may then upload.
- At Commons, the most restrictive license we accept is what is known as Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike ("CC-BY-SA" for short). There are several variants on it, but the later versions have merely been clarifications of the earlier ones; see Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License for quite a good rundown. Although this allows anyone to reuse the picture with attribution, their is no waiver of moral rights, personality rights, etc. In my view, CC-BY-SA doesn't really offer anything of value unless you have the sort of picture someone might pay to use. Normally, that isn't an issue for a headshot in any context that wouldn't also require some sort of waiver of personality rights (e.g. use in an ad).
- Within certain limits, certain photos can be uploaded directly to Wikipedia on a strictly fair use / non-free use basis. See Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. However, that is not relevant here. To quote that page, "Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose." Since it would be possible to take a different photo of any living person, headshots of living people never qualify as non-free content on Wikipedia.
I hope that helps. Feel free to leave me a message on Commons if you have further questions. - Jmabel | Talk 03:07, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
NPP
Hi. Please be sure to thoroughly familiarise yourself with both WP:NPP and WP:DELETION. Thanks. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 17:45, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- Seems we've only had one interaction in at least the last 30 days, and it was your deleting a page I nom'd for speedy.TimothyJosephWood 22:11, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
WP:A7 applies only to articles about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organized event. It does not apply to articles about articles about other topics such as films. Please do not apply A7 to articles about other topics. —teb728 t c 22:51, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
- teb728, As I indicated on the talk page, the article appears to be about a youtube video, with the only source being a youtube video. I seem to have missed the announcement where youtube started being film and stopped being web content. I went again, just to make sure, through the first five pages of google results for the author and name, and came up with nothing that didn't reference youtube. If you have found a source where this has seen daylight outside of youtube, then I am happy to oblige. Otherwise I suppose we'll go to AfD. TimothyJosephWood 23:09, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
Thank you
Hi Timothyjosephwood. Thank you for your review of the Jozef De Vroey article. And if you'd be so kind, could you please point me towards any Flemish language editors you know about to help me with some translations for this article? Thanks. Picomtn (talk) 17:45, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- I would probably start over at Wikipedia:WikiProject Belgium. TimothyJosephWood 17:48, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- Thank for this direction Timothyjosephwood, it is most appreciated. Picomtn (talk) 20:19, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
Afd
Hi. Per your comment on my talk page, I can see no record of your ever having nominated the original article Safdar Butt for deletion, and you are still welcome to do so. This is a mere duplicate, and could have been redirected by you -- or speedily nominated for deletion, per WP:A10. One doesn't need an Afd to discuss eliminating a recently created duplicate page. best, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:07, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- Shawn in Montreal, I originally simply added the page to the existing AfD, as it seemed to be all the original issues I was nominating the duplicate for anyway. Honestly, when I first did web searches I did not realize at the time that the original I was seeing in search was not the article I was looking at in the other tab, but a copy of it (or visa versa). However, I do now see the the cleanup tag from 2010 seems to have been added to the original piecemeal, and was not also in place from article creation, as it was on the duplicate.
- Redirect and fix the original is the correct course of action. TimothyJosephWood 18:22, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
openQA May 3
openQA was written by me in my own words. I'm not sure why this is being deleted. The first draft, May 2, was written together with a group of people from our project. The second post, May 3, was written in my own words. Please undelete.

- The article in question was nominated for speedy deletion due to verbatim text found elsewhere on the internet. Please see WP:COPYVIO. TimothyJosephWood 12:47, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

stop deleting my wikipedia pages
hello this is hayleybox00. why do you keep tagging my pages for deletion? i write about famous people and about things they did. i know my first examples were not very good but later i wrote pages with Alot of information and references. so please stop deleting my pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hayleybox00 (talk • contribs) 12:36, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
- Picnic (2004 film) has been nominated, and was previously deleted as the article appears to be about a youtube video with no coverage in secondary sources, and no claim of significance. For guidance on article notability standards, please see WP:NOTE. For guidance on the speedy deletion criteria for the current nomination and previous deletion, see WP:A7.

The Getaway album
The article I posted can be deleted. I had the article ready to post as soon as the album was officially announced but someone else clearly beat me so it appears we both posted the article at the same time. Jason1978 (talk) 11:25, 05, May 2016 (UTC)
Probably should turn that plugin off
It modified Drmies comment. He was called out as the author by Only in death but it was your edit that changed it. You should probably fix it and OiD can strike his comment. --DHeyward (talk) 14:22, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- Hah. Oh wow. Good catch DHeyward. TimothyJosephWood 14:24, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
- DHeyward, I'm really beginning to feel the love here. Thanks. Timothyjosephwood, wut? Are you just trying to get me in trouble? :) Drmies (talk) 16:28, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
