Comment committee
You had previously commented on the possibility of a "comment" committee at the idea lab. At Talk:Landmark Worldwide, I have started a discussion regarding possibly starting a "trial run" of such an idea. Your input in the discussion would of course be welcome. John Carter (talk) 21:46, 16 January 2015 (UTC)
A drive-by thank you...
Your description of RS was superb in its generality, specifically....A second misconception is that a source can be declared "reliable", and that declaration is a fixed, absolute judgement. Reliability depends both on the source itself and on how it is used. This board cannot provide a blanket approval that a source is reliable for all purposes. Some of the most important guidelines for evaluating the use of specific sources to support specific claims can be found in WP:MEDRS. (Of course, a source can be reliable for a particular claim and yet still be omitted from an article for reasons of (ir)relevance, undue weight, or to avoid implying conclusions not actually supported. The greater context of the article matters.) Is it ok with you if I modify it to achieve a tad more generality so that it doesn't apply only to MEDRS? Just wondering what other important guidelines we could use? I think you've presented the most intelligible, comprehensive and succinctly presented response that I've ever read.

ancient (and recurring) RD history
Hi, Ten. In this edit (in a thread seven years ago, which was already titled "Medical and legal questions (for the nth time)"; I wonder which time we're up to by now?), you wrote: "Mike Godwin was asked for comments on the [RD] guideline back in August 2007; as far as I know he has offered no objection then or since." By any chance do you remember where that discussion took place? I couldn't find any mention of it in the RD talk page archives; the closest I could find was this edit of Theresa Knott's a few months later, in which she mentions Brad Patrick. (But please don't spend a lot of time looking. The current discussion, if you haven't come across it and if you care, is here.) —Steve Summit (talk) 18:51, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
- Poking quickly through the respective talk pages, it looks like Mike Godwin was invited (User talk:MGodwin#Medical advice guideline) to comment on the medical advice guidelines in August 2007. As far as I am aware, he offered no response or objection in that thread (Wikipedia talk:Reference desk/Guidelines/Medical advice/Archive 1#Serious concerns with this content) or anywhere else. I'm afraid that's all I can come up with.
- To be honest, I took WT:RD off my watchlist ages ago, and I'm seldom active on the Desks themselves. The Science desk used to be a remarkable resource, where editors made a serious effort to find useful sources and references and citations. Now it's mostly just StuRat bullshitting off the top of his head. (The problem with StuRat is that he's almost as smart as he thinks he is, and he trusts his own best guesses a little too much. His answers are often correct, but it's impossible for the poor sods reading his 'wisdom' to tell what's based on real knowledge, what's a guess, and what's a wildly inaccurate but clever-sounding stab in the dark. And prolific as he is, he sets a bad example for the ever-decreasing number of new editors who might volunteer there.)
- Meanwhile, the talk page is a cesspit of bickering among certain 'regulars', interspersed with libertarian bleating about having a right to spout whatever nonsense dribbles out of people's imagination, actual references be damned. Just not worth it anymore, and it's little wonder that the traffic on the Desks is so much slower than it used to be. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 19:16, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

- Thanks! (Can't argue with much you've said; the decline of the RDs since their golden age has certainly been sizeable and sad.) —Steve Summit (talk) 21:44, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

I will, in the interest of full disclosure, acknowledge that I've run into Insertcleverphrasehere recently at these articles, and been impressed by his thoroughly disingenuous approach
in the recent arbitration case. This comment actually means a lot to me, as I have really made an effort to be as nonpartisan as possible, especially recently as I have begun editing, I'm actually quite honoured that you noticed. Insertcleverphrasehere (talk) 08:53, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

- For some reason, I'm reminded of my favorite George W.

Let's get some spirit
You say in this edit, "Trying to come up with a blanket statement or rule often creates as many problems as it solves—you tend to end up with a subset of editors who are determined to enforce the literal and specific wording of the rule, rather than considering what the rule is actually meant to accomplish." But the Policy policy (not a typo) says, as a matter of policy, that "Policy and guideline pages should ... Be clear [and] ... Emphasize the spirit of the rule. Expect editors to use common sense. If the spirit of the rule is clear, say no more." (Emphasis added.) Thus, by policy mature policies should be considered to plainly express the spirit of the rule in the literal and specific wording of the rule. Therefore, there should be no need to inquire further into the spirit or purpose of the rule, the literal and specific wording of the rule should control, and common sense should be applied to properly determine how that wording is to be applied in the particular case.

- You're welcome to make it. I meant what I said when I said that (a) I don't have much free time on my hands right now, and (b) that DRN is shaping up to be a massive time sink. Moreover, I am very wary of encouraging editors to see BlackLight Power as a more general standard; it's still a pretty flawed article. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 23:59, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
Matidia
This is a total blast from the past, but since 2005 the article on Matidia (Trajan's niece and Hadrian's mother-in-law) has identified her as "Salonina". I'm looking for evidence that this is correct; all I can find points to "Salonia" (without the second n). As far as I can tell, the second n stems from your edit. As I say, this is all ancient history (doubly so!), but thanks if you can provide any clarification! Q·L·1968 ☿ 16:23, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
- I don't see any page moves in the article history, so I'm guessing that I probably just copied the article title as it existed at the time I did the other wikifying. In other words, the name would appear to stem from the anonymous IP who created the article in March 2005, rather than my minor tidying in April 2005. If the sourcing is better – or at least exists, honestly – for a different spelling of the name, I'm definitely not going to object to a page move and correction.

Why Did You Revert My Edit to the Rossi article?
Hello Ten, pardon my directness, but you seem to not know what is happening in LENR research. You objected to the fact that I posted a link to a press release in which Darden Enterprise/Cherokee had acquired rights to Rossi's technology. Given the one-sided tone of the existing article, are you suggesting that it is not relevant to record the fact that one of the most successful eco-entrepreneurs in the world has paid 12 million for Rossi's tech is something Wikipedia should hide from its readers. In my talk page comments I suggested that the article in its present state, given what has happened over the last four years since the majority of prominent edits were put in place, borders on defamation. Your abrupt removal of a fact that is critical to the reader's determining the real status of Rossi's work as reflected in numerous online sources tends rather to worsen than improve this situation. Here are some of those links:
http://coldfusion3.com/blog/tom-darden-reveals-why-he-backed-rossi http://www.infinite-energy.com/images/pdfs/DardenInterview.pdf http://www.bizjournals.com/triangle/blog/techflash/2014/10/raleigh-investor-darden-still-bullish-on.html http://revolution-green.com/tom-darden-man-behind-rossi/ http://www.bizjournals.com/triangle/blog/techflash/2015/04/darden-cold-fusion-focused-industrial-heat-showing.html http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-h-bailey/interview-with-andrea-ros_b_8248624.html
So, since you don't like a formal press release from a Darden company, even if it is merely being used to prove what it dos prove, which is that Darden's due diligence led him to buy Rossi's tech (a highly relevant fact in Rossi's biography, as anyone who has actually followed this matter, as opposed to arbitrarily censoring it is aware), which of these third party sources would you like to document the same claim? Because they each, in one way or another, do so. Thank you for keeping an open mind. --BenJonson (talk) 00:13, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
- The quality of the claims made by Rossi and friends has been extensively discussed at Talk:Energy Catalyzer; I'm not going to reinvent the wheel to re-explain why posting Rossi's press releases isn't a good idea. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 02:36, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
Your reply illustrates a remarkable disconnect from reality and lack of awareness about the current state of the discussion about LENR generally and Rossi more particularly. The press release is NOT from Rossi; it is from Darden Industries. But perhaps you read it so quickly that you confused Darden, an eco-entrepreneur worth a couple of billion, with Rossi. This has NOTHING to do with Rossi's "claims." It is fact that Darden acquired the technology, reportedly for 12$ m. dollars. Here's the release again:http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/industrial-heat-has-acquired-andrea-rossis-e-cat-technology-241853361.html. Do you see that Cherokee Industries is the holding company? Rossi had nothing to do with the press release.
Moreover, there are multiple third party reports, including stories in Fortune magazine and the Huffington Post, that confirm the press release. But you were too fast on the "revert" button to make further inquiry.
Even *Fortune* magazine has covered this: http://www.e-catworld.com/2015/09/27/tom-darden-on-lenr-interview-in-fortune-magazine/comment-page-1/
Sorry that I must reinvent the wheel by illustrating with these links and methodological proviso (this is not about Rossi's claims at all). This is an unfortunate illustration of how Wikipedia has difficulty, in the words of Adam Gopnik, dealing with topics where "one side is wrong but doesn't know it." I have a feeling that in the coming weeks and months the prejudice manifest in this article by failure to document critical developments in Rossi's career such as this (and the 2013 Lugano report, which 2 years later STILL isn't mentioned in the article) will happen despite you cavalier and misconceived objections.--BenJonson (talk) 12:30, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

- That's funny; I thought you decided that ""This correspondace is now closed-Ed.". It's a slow edit war, and it's far from the most serious edit war I've ever seen, but you blanked and redirected an article twice. On neither occasion did you engage with other editors on the article talk page; before your second blanking of the article (which was accompanied by a 2.5-word edit summary that just repeated your assertion of non-notability) you ignored a request for an explanation placed by another editor (diff) on the article's talk page. An "edit war" doesn't have to be four reverts in twenty-four hours.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Thoughts about WP:NOTHERE
I notice that Realskeptic has ceased to edit since their topic ban went into effect. It's only been two days, and there could be some innocent reason (maybe they are busy elsewhere), but I've noticed that real POV pushers tend to lose interest in editing when they are not allowed to touch their favorite topic areas. We don't need such editors.
My point is that such cessation can be listed as a symptom of problematic editors at WP:NOTHERE.
OTOH, if an editor has merely gotten into trouble because they don't understand our policies and culture, but they are still interested in building Wikipedia (they WP:AREHERE), then they will tend to stay around and do other things. In fact, we wish they would.
It especially concerns me when topic banned editors, whose topic ban is limited to a short length of time, cease to edit until the topic ban expires, and then immediately return to that topic area. That practice must be stopped. We wish to groom then into experienced and constructive editors, and they are not learning when they stay completely away from Wikipedia. They are proving that they really have just one mission here.
I propose that instead of a topic ban being limited by time, we could play with the idea of requiring a certain number of non-automated edits (maybe 5,000) in other topic areas before being allowed to return to their favorite topic area(s). By that time they will gain experience, learn about our culture, PAG, and especially behavioral guidelines. Then, when they return to those topic areas, there is a better chance they will edit neutrally and collaboratively.
What do you think of that idea? -- BullRangifer (talk) 17:16, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
- Trying to take your points roughly in order...
- I don't think it's necessary to try to add additional gotcha! checkboxes to WP:NOTHERE; in general I'm reluctant to create conditions that might encourage post-block taunting, WP:POKING, or grave-dancing—"Ha! You stopped editing for a while after you were topic banned! You are a POV-pusher!" Even if true, it's not actually particularly useful to point out the obvious. The discussions which precipitate a topic ban already provide a much more detailed and nuanced expression of exactly why the community objects to a particular user continuing to edit in a particular area.
- I also don't want to expose recently topic-banned individuals to sniping if they return from an editing break and try to make a fresh start. If they've found the editing or interpersonal disputes that led to their topic bans stressful and they want to take a break, then let them—don't attach a stigma to the fact that they stepped back. If they return and attempt to edit constructively in areas outside their ban, then let them. If they storm off in a huff never to be seen again, then there's no more we need to say about them.
- I agree that very short topic bans (less than three to six months) are usually nearly useless, but in my experience they're also pretty rare. (Your mileage may vary.) I see six-month, one-year, and especially indefinite topic bans handed down at AE – at least in the fringe/psuedoscience area – far more often than anything shorter. As aggravating as a pointlessly-short topic ban can be, however, it's a double-edged sword for the editor on the receiving end of one. Sure, he can go back to editing sooner, but the editors an admins in the area tend to remember and recognize him, to more closely scrutinize his conduct, and to be ready to drop the hammer of a much longer topic (or site) ban much more readily.
- I would be reluctant to tie unbans to any sort of edit count, and especially to one has high as five thousand. (I'm a moderately active editor and an admin, but I've got more off-Wikipedia hobbies and obligations than I used to; I'm only hitting maybe a hundred edits in a month. Heck, good adminship candidates can still sometimes pass RfA with a couple of thousand edits.) While there aren't any etched-in-stone rules and criteria, a pattern of good behavior in other areas is already a de facto precondition for getting an indefinite topic ban lifted anyway, at least in most of the unban discussions I've seen on AN.
- I guess the short summary is that I don't see a whole lot of need for policy revision in this area. Others may feel differently. Heck, I might feel differently given much more data and analysis—but I've got those off-Wikipedia hobbies and obligations calling.... TenOfAllTrades(talk) 19:00, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
- That all makes plenty of sense. Thanks! -- BullRangifer (talk) 19:52, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi TenOfAllTrades, regarding your block of Darkfrog24, could you please add some more information into the block summary so it's clear what the block is for (even if just the canned "Arbitration enforcement" option). Thanks, Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 08:42, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
