Violation of rules repeatedly by CambridgeBayWeather

Please stop. As an administrator, you are violating the rules of Wikipedia and showing irresponsibility. You are doing high vandalism. If you'll continue like this then I'll ask other Bureaucrats and administrators to delete your adminship.

• You have violated the policy of Vandalism
• You have violated the policy of good faith
• You have violated the policy of No personal attack by making false images that does not belong to the personality.
• Image does not belong to reliable source regarding personality. So you have violated one more rule.
• You have done image vandalism.

Still if you need image of the personality. You need to bring the image from a reliable source that should contain 1400 years old reference. Sani0346 (talk) 00:28, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Sani0346

You do not need to remove my content on your violation of rules as an admin. Let the others know about you as well. You should be able to be patient as an admin in criticism. Moreover keep the matter of image pending in the discussion section till we resolve whether I really violated one rule or you violated nearly 5 rules. This matter can be reported surely on WP:ANI. As far as the image of the shrine of Abdul Qadir Gilani. That image is open source , freeware contained on hundred of different websites. This image is reliable unlike your image that has violated many rules. If you need detailed copyrights of the snapshot of the Shrine of Abdul Qadir. I'll provide it. No problem.

What are you thinking?

Why did you delete the page for John P. Wheeler III right after his death? http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/John_P._Wheeler_III

I am not sure what you mean by "No explanation of the subject's significance (real person, animal, organization, or web content." He is all over the web (he is one of Bing's top searches for today), he was a Army officer (West Point graduate), Pentagon and Securities and Exchange Commission stints and a job with Mitre Corp, which handles some information technology work for both Homeland Security and the U.S. Defense Department. He worked for the Reagan and GHW Bush administrations and was key in having the Vietnam Vet's memorial erected. Oh yea, he was just found in a DE landfill, murdered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.158.5.5 (talk) 14:02, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Use of the word "aerodrome" vs. "airport"

I noticed that you renamed Trenton Airport to Trenton Aerodrome on 14 Apr 2010; I didn't know if this was simply for reason of disambiguaton or as correction to the name in the strictly technical sense. In any case, I have started a discussion on the use of the two terms in WikiProjects Airports and would welcome your input in that discussion.

Socks

Hi CambridgeBayWeather. I am concerned about the level of sockpuppetry on the Somalia article. One anonymous IP, single-purpose account and recently-created account after another have been attempting to modify the exact same portion of the article, using the exact same arguments. This usually involves the sentence in the introduction that reads "While it still has room for improvement, the interim government continues to reach out to both Somali and international stakeholders to help grow the administrative capacity of the Transitional Federal Institutions and to work toward eventual national elections in 2011", which is sourced to the CIA [1]: "while its institutions remain weak, the TFG continues to reach out to Somali stakeholders and to work with international donors to help build the governance capacity of the TFIs and to work toward national elections in 2011." Is there anyway to stop this disruption or would you recommend I just write up a sockpuppet case? Is full page protection warranted or is that only a band-aid solution? Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 23:37, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Fort Liard

i took that definition from Irkutsk#Climate and it seems that no one has ever complained about it. You need some quantificator, you cant just say "cold" without any specification.

Anon hadith vandal is back

He's not communicating with us, his English is very poor, and his intent seems to be to praise some unknown Iranian clerics. He might have something useful to contribute, in a more specialized article (List of clerics teaching at Qom, or something like that), but if he doesn't communicate, we can't draw it out.

Hi. I think this image would be useful for some meteorology-related articles.

Thank you kindly. And thanks for tweaking the infobox. I will apply that wisdom to the other lake articles I started.

I've written to a number of schools in Yellowknife, asking the students for photos of lakes and settlements. Is that appropriate, or might the teachers disapprove?

I think that shouldn't be a problem, and other List of schools in the Northwest Territories might be able to supply some. I think that you would need to either get a release for the pictures or have the kids upload the images.

3RR

Hi CambridgeBayWeather. One User:Danlaycock has just reported [2] me on the 3RR noticeboard for what he claims is "revert-warring". The situation is highly disingenuous since I actually only ever reverted twice (as did he, ironically enough), and so did another involved editor (whom he tellingly did not report). I've attempted to set the record straight, but I'm not certain if I'll get a fair shake. I would therefore definitely appreciate it if you were to keep an eye on the post just to make sure nothing fishy happens. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 05:01, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

List of Consolidated PBY Catalina survivors

Hi, thanks for heads-up. Background is that I created the list from that on the Catalina Society webpage, as an experiment in transferring data with no significant re-keying. I've tweaked it a few times since, when I've become aware of additions and amendments, but I'm no constant watcher of Catalina matters. I've got David Legg's book for detailed PBY histories up to 2002, and he is a fellow member of a Yahoogroups Air-Britain members only forum. Today he's been talking about Indonesian Catalinas that have poorly recorded details. See also his news on the Catalina Society webpage. The only register I regular monitor is USCAR for A-26s, tonight is monthly download. As you appear to be in a better position, at least geographically, I'll be happy if you wish to make amendments to the PBY list when you see fit. Latest Catalina Society list is at: http://www.catalina.org.uk/plugins/p13_download_manager/getfile.php?categoryid=131&p13_sectionid=1&p13_fileid=2&p13_versionid=17 .PeterWD (talk) 18:06, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

However, the list and the template seem to duplicate each other - the template is transcluded at the bottom of the list and the list is linked from the template. Perhaps they could be rationalised into just one list/template? (And the link to Canada at the top of the list really isn't needed either). Colonies Chris (talk) 22:21, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

aircraft movements for 2010 - StatsCan figures

I believe you made a few mistakes on your aircraft movement counts. I'm using the same source as you but i came up to different results on the following airports.

for YTZ, im coming up to 113,587 for 2010 for YUL 217,484 for YOW 172,053 for YHU 187,527 for YQB 126,620

I havent even started counting the other airports yet,

Please confirm

I already started some edits. I'll keep working on it as i go along. What caught my eye was YTZ, 60% increase was too good to be true, and it was!

Heliports in Canada

If you look at List of heliports in Canada#13 the Banff Park Warden Service operate a heliport. The coordinates are slightly off, its about 67 m (220 ft) south, but the Canada Flight Supplement says it is in the park. I was a bit frustrated at that point because I seem to have lost a hospital! I thought there was another Edmonton or Calgary hospital with a heliport but I can't seem to see it. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 01:21, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Hmmm, that is interesting. I was thinking that if the edit wasn't an accident, there would be an appropriate redirect to categorize. Maybe Banff Park Warden Service? 117Avenue (talk) 05:05, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Location maps

Yeha, unfortunately the scale is wrong so they wouldn't work. Otherwise I'd have implemented them all. I can have a go at creating some based on OSM though and recolored. I'll have a go..♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:40, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Nope, I made one for Northwest and because of its northern location the scale is not normal, I had that problem recently with some Eastern Siberian maps. Yellowknife is showing like 100 to the north of where it should be sadly... The best thing would be to request User:Nordnordwest or somebody on de wiki creates maps of Nunavut, Northwest and Yukon.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:07, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

I'll see if I can make some maps of say southern Hudson Bay and northern in which you can display settlements on it or any other bay or lake which you want one for. I can also make some city locators if you want them. But the far north doesn't seem to work with normal coordinates...♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:27, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Yeah sadly it has the same problem.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:00, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Great job with adding the maps to the airports BTW.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:34, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

If you want you can create a list of Canadian settlements without images and I'll try to get some on flickr by request. Northern Canada mostly I;ll try to get hold of images of the various small communities. I'll ask for Aklavik first.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:41, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

OK. I'm sorting out something with Aklavik although the images are small and as of yet the correct license hasn't been added. I've also requested Deline for now. Some of the flickr users have multiple settlements from northern Canada in the photostream so hopefully they are willing the release them! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:04, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

See this. I also have 2 other replies, I'll check those tomorrow.♦ Dr. Blofeld

One of Deline, will upload now. See article in 5 minutes time.♦ Dr. Blofeld 01:17, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Can you upload these to the commons? I've done the first one. Got one more of Aklavik, will upload more tomorrow.♦ Dr. Blofeld 01:25, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

I'll gradually go through the nav box in order I think so I know where I am. I've sent some requests for images of Fort Liard next...♦ Dr. Blofeld 01:47, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Can you upload the ones of Fort Good Hope and Fort Resolution? Mattcatpurple has images of both. I'll make some more requests...♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:55, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

If this has anything to do with the Northwest Territories pushpin locations maps, please let me know if anything can be used for the lake stubs I made. Many thanks.

About 50%, I ask four and usually get two replies. I find if I ask four people I'll almost always get a response from one or two,♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:54, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

P.S Cambridge if you want maps of lakes or rivers try http://www.maps-for-free.com/?val=66.366667,-112.716667,9,Napaktulik%20Lake. Just click the camera at the top and snap whatever you want, you can zoom in and out for whatever scale. You can use whatever paint art program you have for labels. As long as you license it like File:Nigeria relief map.png. See File:Napaktulik Lake.png and File:Napaktulik Lake2.png and File:Lake Beechey.png. I've make a couple so you can get the idea. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:54, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Canadian Airport Identifiers

When I checked the List of airports by ICAO code under "C" I found only those starting with CY and CZ; I also later found a discussion stating that those are the only ones that are official ICAO codes. Do you have a reference for this? I had always thought that the 4 letter ident was an ICAO identifier (although it often didn't have a corresponding IATA ident). Although I have been unable to find a definitive statement on ICAO's site, the CFS, or the CARs, the Canadian AIM AD2.1 mentions that the CFS contains the list of Canadian aerodromes listed by ICAO location indicator (this is found at http://www.navcanada.ca/ContentDefinitionFiles/Publications/AeronauticalInfoProducts/AIP/Current/PDF/EN/part_3_ad/3ad_eng.pdf). This would seem to me to indicate that all the smaller airports like CCQ3, CFH4, etc should be listed, and the statement indicating about only starting with a CY or CZ be removed (I've left similar a comment in the article's talk page). HiFlyChick (talk) 18:42, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

(In response to your comment on my user page) It would seem significant that ICAO only has those airports in it, however, a number of years back (I can't remember when , but as a gues > 10), the little ones only had 3 letters in their ident, and nationwide they were switched over to being 4 letter by adding a leading C; for example, Debert went from being CQ3 to CCQ3. At the time, my understanding was that they were being given an ICAO code, but I can't yet find any supporting documentation. HiFlyChick (talk) 14:09, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi! First of all check out the 16 images we now have of Old Crow!!

• this user has asked "Which images would you like". I've said I'm not exactly sure but I mentioned you knew more about it than me. Is it possible you could go through his photostream and identify a handful of photos we need and contact him on flickr. I believe it was Fort Providence but he has images of tons of other places I think. Perhaps you could ask for one or two of the best images of each place?♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:47, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

• This iser has also asked ["Which images would you like", Can you contact her and ask for some, I believe it was Old Crow I asked for but she has images of quite a few places.! Phew hope this OK, if you could request specific images from the two users this would be great.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:01, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Images look great, glad you could kill a few birds with one stone so to speak. Map looks fine in that article with the rivers it looks good, although not so keen on File:Adams Island.png. Something happened to the quality of the map and if its an island it would be better to draw a line and write the name on the lighter sea labelling it as an island rather than a dot...♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:18, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

You could use Open Street Map for island images too...♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:20, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

What I would do it use OSM highlight the island in dark red and then have a Canadana locator window but with a small red square instead of a dot. Something like Kanmaw Kyun only with a locator window. I'll do an example tomorrow for you to follow..♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:23, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

That looks good!♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:57, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Excellent, I've just sent out a few more requests.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:35, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I've requested Tsiigehtchic, Kugaaruk and Fort Smith..♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:48, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I've created User:CambridgeBayWeather/Flickr for you. All you have to do then is copy and paste the same message to anybody you request images for, makes it very quicky and easy that way...♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:52, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Makes it easier that way to ask multiple people and increases the chances of getting them... I drill the same message each time but just chance the place name. BTW i created File:Chamcook Lake.png. That's how I would like the maps of Canadian lakes to look. In paint just select a rectangle and dark red, thin/medium line and draw a box around it. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:03, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Can we come to some sort of convention on making them. Like Font size 22 in bold and in capitals to label state names and Font size 26 lowercasing in bold for labelling lakes?♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:16, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

OK. I've asked Leslie for two images of Whale Cove too...♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:35, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Check out Chamcook Lake. Requested images too! Only 31,000 lakes to improve now...♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:56, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Dunno. the map doesn't look particularly good, and its irritating waiting so slong such for its to change zoom!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks,♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:12, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Northern pix has asked if there are any other pics we want. He said something I think about have viisted 49 out of 55 plces or something... Can you go through his photostream and request images you want? Also for more images of Old Crow here from Jennoit. Can you upload, I might try tos find info to start an article on that church.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:03, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Northwest Staging Route

Thank you for your suggestions :) ! Am not quite finished yet, as Edmonton was a hub on the NWS, as I hadn't added the part of the route which came from Minneapolis. Have looked at what aircraft models the United States sent to the Soviet Union and the vast majority were four models, P-39/P-64, A-20, B-25 and C-47s. The P-39/P-64 were made in Niagara Falls and B-25s in Kansas City - they were sent to Edmonton via Minneapolis, while the A-20s and C-47 went though Great Falls, as they were made in Southern California. Was also thinking of taking off the emergency airfields from the list as well Bwmoll3 (talk) 10:30, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

It would be easy enough to find out the station names, then see which of the Long Range Radar stations is closest. They're all tied in though CFB North Bay where they get their direction control.

Trolling

Hi CambridgeBayWeather. There's a newly-created troll account that has been vandalizing the Riverside Plaza article, adding defamatory BLP material & racist epithets (c.f [7]). I have already requested page protection. However, I think a permanent block and a Checkuser are warranted given the offensive nature of the edits and the fact that the article has a history of such vandalism by troll accounts, likely all created by the same person (c.f. [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]). Can you help with this? Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 19:26, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me. I noticed on my watchlist that shortly after I had posted here, some anon IP apparently vandalized your talk page and was promptly reverted (it must've been obscene since the reverting admins struck the edit out from viewing [16]); so I'm guessing that's perhaps why you weren't alerted to my new message. Thanks anyhow for responding. I don't think the old troll accounts really require Checkuser since their edits are for the most part identical i.e. different newly-created, single purpose accounts all vandalizing the same sections of the same obscure article using pretty much the same words/phrases, all in rapid succession of one another ("apt/deserved nicknames", "black prostitutes", etc). That includes the latest Jimjoneslives666 account (e.g. "apt nicknames" [17]). As such, they already meet several of the key signs of sockpuppetry (precocious edit history, repeating the same disapproved activity, edit warring, knowledge that an obscure article exists, similar writing/editing styles, IP sock puppetry, single-purpose accounts). The only major difference is that the new Jimjoneslives666 account has added racist epithets to the equation, effectively 'outing' his agenda ("In more recent years, niggers and Northeast African immigrants have represented the bulk of tenants" [18]). I also appreciate the warning you left on the user's talk page, but s/he seems to have ignored it since s/he is still revert-warring over the same POV edits, only this time with another admin. He has also presumably begun to use an anonymous IP so as to avoid breaching 3RR (c.f. [19]). It was recommended to me yesterday on WP:RFPP to open a vandalism case if the POV-pushing continues, and indeed it has. However, I don't think that's nearly enough given the continued abuse of multiple accounts. Page protection of some sort and an indefinite block are clearly warranted at this point. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 18:59, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Much obliged! Middayexpress (talk)

Hi CambridgeBayWeather. Predictably, the troll account is back with the same offensive, racist material described above [20]. It seems that the block on his/her account was temporary and expired. However, I really don't think that's enough. Given all the socking, trolling, BLP violations, the edit-warring, and the repeated flouting of admin warnings (even after having been blocked), a permanent ban is clearly warranted.

Grands Projets of François Mitterrand

Hi CBW, I'm remembering all the Nunavut geo templates you made and wondering if you'd be interested in creating one for Grands Projets of François Mitterrand? If you're busy with other things, no worries. Thanks. --Rosiestep (talk) 02:54, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Two sections is a good idea as some were initiated under Giscard (Musee d'Orsay, Grande Arche de La Défense, La Villette), and some were initiated under Mitterrand (Louvre Pyramid, Arab World Institute, Opéra Bastille, Ministère des Finances et de l'Économie, Bibliothèque nationale de France). At least one was initiated under Mitterrand but not built (Centre International de Conferences) but I don't believe there's a reason to create an article on a non-built structure. I think there are still more grands projets initiated under Mitterrand -- one of the sources said there were 12 -- but I haven't found info on the others, at least not yet. --Rosiestep (talk) 17:25, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi CambridgeBayWeather. There seems to be a bit of a WP:COI situation on the Hargeisa Canadian Medical Center that I'm not sure how to negotiate. I thought it best to contact you about it, as the user claims to be the owner of the clinic in question. The details can be found here and here. Best regards, Middayexpress (talk) 03:15, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your suggestion. I am not the actually owner of the clinic but am connected to the clinic and I choose the initial only because I was creating this page but as I can see your point of view I will refrain from editting in the future. I just did not want Somalia to appear on the page, as the Somalia government in no way shape or form has anything to do with the clinic. It is the government in Somaliland that has provided the stability and peace required to run it. I understand that the need for accuracy but if a viewer is interested in knowing about Somaliland they can simply follow the link. I will try to provide more english language reference also.

Climate at Sachs Harbour

The bright sunshine data at Sachs Harbour is "extreme daily" value, not "total hours" which you can see at locations such as Whitehorse. I suppose you could use the 1961-1990 climate normals for total sunshine hours but those values are nowhere near the ones listed in the article. And calculation information for each station is easily found by clicking the station name, nothing hard to do if someone wants to look up those info. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 03:31, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

I know "M" means missing, but could we assume that the value is 0 since there shouldn't be any sunshine in the winter months? OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 04:14, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Some such as Kugluktuk has monthly sunshine data but the site only provides extreme daily (and the location is non-existent in 1960-1990 normals). Do you know where they obtain the figures? OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 06:05, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

I encountered a couple more (Rankin Inlet and Resolute) where the article stated the monthly sunshine data but the information is not present in the links. I removed them until me or you find a source somewhere else that provides the sunshine data. It's odd that someone got access to sunshine data and referenced it to 1971-2000 climate normals but it's not found in the normals website. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 15:34, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

CFB Edmonton

I've uploaded some pictures of my trip to CFB Edmonton, where I didn't circumvent any gates or fences, so all the images are visible from public places. I was able to snap a couple of photos of runway 12 from 53.68072°N 113.47174°W / 53.68072; -113.47174 before a guy told me I shouldn't be taking pictures, but there wasn't much to see from there anyways, see File:CYED runway 12.jpg. I was able to see the airside from 53.67442°N 113.47811°W / 53.67442; -113.47811, which produced a good picture, if I may say so, hope it doesn't reveal anything compromising national security. 117Avenue (talk) 05:30, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

John A. Macdonald (1815–91) was the first Prime Minister of Canada. The dominant figure of Canadian Confederation, his political career spanned almost half a century, including almost 19 years as prime minister. Macdonald was born in Scotland; his family emigrated to Kingston, Upper Canada (today in eastern Ontario) when he was a boy. He served in the legislature of the colonial Province of Canada and by 1857 had become premier under its unstable political system. When in 1864 no party proved capable of governing for long, Macdonald agreed to a proposal from his political rival, George Brown, that the parties unite in a Great Coalition to seek federation and political reform. A series of conferences resulted in the British North America Act and the birth of Canada as a nation on 1 July 1867. Macdonald became the first prime minister of the new nation, and served in that capacity for most of the remainder of his life, losing office for only five years in the 1870s over the Pacific Scandal, involving bribery in the financing of the Canadian Pacific Railway. After regaining his position, he saw the railroad through to completion in 1885, a means of transportation and freight conveyance which helped unite Canada as one nation. (more...)

Lympne Airport

Hi, in this diff you struck through the IATA & ICAO codes as well as the runway alignments. No else seems to understand why.

The correct coordinates for Alderney Airport

I saw that you reverted the changes I made to the coordinates of Alderney Airport. I went back to the UK AIP and saw that they use the same coordinates which you reverted back. Despite that, I would still like to change the coordinates for two reasons:

1. I like to have a coordinate that is correct to tenth of a second. The coordinates in the UK AIP stops at seconds only, so it is less accurate than the coordinates I provided.

2. The coordinates provided in the UK AIP is situated in the triangle between the airport's three runways. But is this the airport's centre as described in the AIP? I see that this point is closer to the southern part of the airport's two grass runways (03/21 and 14/32), and not to the centre of these runways. This is why I don't regard the UK AIP's coordinates as accurate. The centre of any airport should be the average of runway mid-points, not some point which we think to be appropriate because it is located in some nice place between the runways. In other words, we should adopt a systematic method in calculating the airport's centre, and I think that my method was properly systematic.

Having said all the above, I suggest adopting the coordinates which I calculated using Google Earth. I would write also to NATS UK about the coordinates of Alderney airport, but I hope that Wikipedia would go something beyond official sources that may not be accurate enough. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Imdashti (talk • contribs) 19:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Mecca or Makkah

Here are some reasons for what Makkah should be used instead of Mecca;

-Officially everywhere in the Saudi Arabia spell Makkah is used for the Holly city. No where Mecca is used. [1] [2] [3] [4]

-Mecca refers to house of wine/gambling etc which is not correct use here for Holy city. Whether it is lower case 'm' or capital 'M' it means same, nothing difference just blowing dust in dyes of Muslims. Where you write your name with small caps or large caps meaning will be same, make sense. I don't know why wikipedia consensus was on Mecca because below comments are also referring and proving for Makkah. [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]

-Another thing in Arabic Makkah (مَکہ) has vowel above 'M' not below 'M'. If pronounced correctly 'a' after 'M' mean vowel is above 'M', however 'e' after 'M' means vowel is below 'M' which is not correct.

-The reason below that Google uses Mecca more times than Makkah, answer is validity of things can't be simply depends on numbers. There are many things controversial (which I will not discuss in detail here) which doesn't rely on number power. Suppose any resolution is passed by NATO however America can VETO power that. Whats that? Because America is right and all others are wrong? Why not majority decision is accepted? So saying numbers for Mecca are more over internet doesn't make sense for using that.

Mecca is the commonly accepted English spelling and hence the common name. It's just like how Jerusalem isn't put as Yerushalayim or al-Quds in its article. Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie | Say Shalom! 18:04, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Sorry Sir, although you are right that Jerusalem isn't put as Yerushalayim but my point is that Jerusalem is not being used for any other meaning, however Mecca is being used for other things controversial. That is why Muslims have concerns. Hope you got my point.Javaidiqbal6022 (talk) 19:46, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

@CambridgeBayWeather: Can you please let me know what the consensus is mean here? And who make consensus? I am sure consensus will be with some reason. As I saw I changed the spell twice and you changed it back, and now you are saying you have no authority to change. Can you please tell in which capacity you are reverting my changes for which I have provided many references.

@CambridgeBayWeather: As you stated that you have no concern which spell being used, I don't have too. But only my concern is that Mecca (which have controversial meaning) shouldn't be used.

Canadian North

Dear CambridgeBayWeather,

The reason for updating the Canadian North site is that I have been employed their for 7 years and am a little more up to date on our fleet configuration then yourself. The F-28 was retired in 2006. I do realize that it is still on the Transport Canada site, but I can insure you that it is retired. So putting a more current fleet information gives the readers the correct information as opposed to the outdated data being presented. As for how the 737-300 and -200 is being presented that is how both Air Canada and Westjet have theirs displayed. I don't know if you want to go and changed their sites as well. Hope this helps.

Cheers

CambridgeBayWeather

Thank you for explaining your actions. When you mentioned "As per source and other airlines articles. One line for aircraft type with the series listed under variants" I just assumed you were referring to other major airlines. I should have reviewed Air Creebec, Air Tindi sites.

Thank you for also pointing out the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. It does state that "Adding material that appears to promote the interests or visibility of an article's author, its author's family members, employer, associates, or their business or personal interests, places the author in a conflict of interest. When editors write to promote their own interests, their contributions often show a characteristic lack of connection to anything the general reader might want to consult as a reference.

Not sure how showing the correct fleet information would violate the code, but I will look over my information to see where you found it to be in conflict. Thank you for pointing it out.

Have a great day!

Template:Infobox mine

If noticed your edits on the mining articles lately but somehow completely missied your message on the template's talk page. Great work, mate. Definetly an improvement, you put some effort in there! I wish I had caught your message, there was some changes I considered for the "History" section of the template. Calistemon (talk) 21:31, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Problem is, there is a lot of articles to update, as you know. Did you count them? And there is, of course, also Template:Infobox gold mine, Infobox mine's forerunner. Calistemon (talk) 22:12, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

The changes I had in mind were minute. In the history section, I would like to change to or add an "Active" line. The reason being that, especially gold mines here in Australia, open, close and then reopen which is difficult to make clear with the current parameters. Additionally, I would have also liked a "Previous owners" section, but that may make the template just to large. Do you think I could achieve the first, smaller addition the way you have, by leaving the old intact and slowly change? Or even have both available? Calistemon (talk) 22:33, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Its pretty hard at times to find a complete history for the older mines, how many times it exactly opened and closed could be hard to determined. Instead, if the mine has opened more then once, I was thinking of the following format (example):

Active: 1901–14, 1945-69, 2001-

Something like that, with, possibly, line breaks between the individual periods. Its really only one extra line I'm thinking of adding. Calistemon (talk) 23:14, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

In that regard, Canada and Australia are very much the same, and the mines probably owned by the same people. You could write its own article here on the subject of Fly-in Fly-out versus residential and the fact that the wealth generated in the remote regions is spent in the capital cities and not there. Very political! Calistemon (talk) 01:29, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for that, and for making the change at the gold mine template, too. I've tried it out on Bronzewing Gold Mine, it works well, closes an "information gap" that I've been unsure on how to address. Funny about the house cleaning, thats what I did this afternoon, too. My wife and daughter are coming back from holidays, had to do it to safe my skin! Calistemon (talk) 10:16, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

Infobox gold mine was created first, a little shortsighted berhaps, later it was requested that I create Infobox mine. The later could probably superside the former, as we don't have a specific template for any other category of mines. As it is, there is no definetive rule.

Greetings!

I'm a biographer of musicians here. Although I'm capable of writing, proofreading, uploading and adding photos and such, I have no knowledge of how to do anything of use with computers other than the work I do here (which you can see from my user page) and email; that's about it! I noticed your abilities with creating sound bites for articles, and am wondering if you might be willing to assist in creating and adding a song clip or two for a few articles at some time? My editing friend who used to do such things in the past has disappeared from the Wikipedia in the past year-- I don't have a song at this point in my head for an article or two needing them, but I'd sure like to know if you might help in the future? --Leahtwosaints (talk) 05:03, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for answering! I am thinking about the biographical articles of musicians. In many of those articles, sound clips appear to enhance the article-- they often either give the reader a feel for the musician's work, but also show their growth as their music evolves over time. They are also helpful on album and song pages for the same reasons. The catch is that the clips must be made from their songs, not from anyone here playing to sheet music. Still interested? --Leahtwosaints (talk) 20:20, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

Well, right offhand, you would be an enormous help with the album or song pages, placing a little clip to demonstrate the music being discussed. I know the Cat Stevens article would really benefit on song or album pages- perhaps another in the text, too. Good examples of how that's done can be seen in the article that User:Kohoutek1138 just brought to GA status on the music band named The Byrds, or that of Van Morrison. I might be out on a Wikibreak for awhile, but Kohoutek1138 can help with any questions, I'm sure. Thanks for helping to pitch in on our Wikipedia! --Leahtwosaints (talk) 22:18, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Sure, but for the main article for Cat Stevens, you may want to discuss it with User talk:Tvoz first. Personally, I would LOVE to see also a clip for each of the song pages for Cream-- which are listed on the banner under the article about the band- I know of only one song of theirs covered like that, which is "Sunshine of Your Love". --Leahtwosaints (talk) 22:40, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Wonderful! Too bad I can't be sure if I'll be close enough to any computers in the coming days- for Cat Stevens, his main website in his infobox has actual clips that can be used of each of his songs last I checked. This is wonderful that you are willing to do this. When I began as a biographer of musicians here 4 yrs ago, there weren't photos of the musicians most of the time, so I began soliciting them from outside, & learned to upload them via Creative Commons licenses to Wikimedia Commons. I've now uploaded maybe 1,750 photos! (You can find a link to it on my userpage) This ability of yours to add song bites to the music pages could be your calling, who knows?!! Thanks. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 00:17, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Hmmmmm .... was part of a bunch of articles I did on Sixth Air Force a few years back. Should have been named "Poncri Auxiliary Airdrome" according to a new book I have on Sixth Air Force. (Alae Supra Canalem : Wings over the Canal: The Sixth Air Force and the Antilles Air Command) Can't recall where I got the Panama City Metropolitan Airport name now. Location appears to be: 08°13′39″N 80°33′47″W (abandoned now). I see a couple of old runways, but more important, some abandoned hardstands and taxiways that tells me that's where the airfield was 13:51, 23 August 2011 (UTC) Bwmoll3 (talk) 13:55, 23 August 2011 (UTC)

It appears to be in too good a condition to have been abandoned for the past 70 years. Only thing I can think of is that it was used as a civil airport by that name which I picked up as. That's a guess. Although there appears to be a hangar at 08°13′32″N 80°33′35″W located at the end of an old taxiiway.. But still can't find the reference I used for the airport name. I should go back and take a look at all of those again, as this book is very detailed about Sixth Air Force and it's organization, units, equipment and airfields. Anyway, take care talk later on..

List of Canadian airports by location indicator: CT

I've just made a few more minor edits to improve consistency. This is a difficult area, as the naming pattern used for articles isn't entirely consistent itself. What I have achieved, I hope, is to remove all separate links to provinces, and just link the towns. The name of the province now only appears either unlinked, simply for information, or as part of a longer 'town, province' link. Any form of linking would probably create some visual inconsistency, but I'm certainly open to discussion on how best to approach this perennial problem.

I've just checked, and I can't find any where the province is linked separately. Which one are you referring to?

I am Jan Millsapps and I authored janmillsapps.com. I am not aware of any copyright infringement. Can you be more specific about the alleged violation and suggest what the WIkipedia author might do to correct this and have the page relisted? Thank you. 76.103.88.141 (talk) 15:07, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

What if I remove the janmillsapps.com link altogether - would that allow the page to be relisted? 76.103.88.141 (talk) 00:33, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!!!

Than you very much for correcting my error on Green Dome. I think it all started with a program I was watching and I swore I heard "grave of Mohammed the founder of Islam has bee bulldozed". :| So I turned to the old laptop and started researching via Google ( -wikipedia or course). Again, oddly, every thing I was reading seemed to agree with the TV program. I did, certainly, notice the date of the article in The Independent and also noticed that discussion about "flatten[ing] the [three] graves" had a years old start date. I then looked at this picture and saw the house of the prophet's wife (where I thought Mohammed had died) had been demolished I equated this place with the place in Medina. I did think all the time that surely no one would bulldoze over any house that is still standing after nearly 1400 years, especially if the founder of a religion had died there. Having now read the full story, I still find it hard to believe that they are going to flatten the house in Medina and I find that incredible; let's hope it doesn't become a toilet. All the best! fr33kman 02:03, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Jägermeister Page

I was trying to add information about our mixed drink to the Jägermeister page, but it was deleted. I'm new to this, so I would appreciate some guidance on how to properly submit this information and learn what was wrong with what I added (*A SEX BOMB is a 1 oz shot of Jägermeister dropped into a glass of Sex Drive Energy Drink.) Is it because Sex Drive Energy Drink needs to be added to Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CoveCrashers (talk • contribs) 19:00, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Concerning Your Edits of Embrun, Ontario

Your edits to the page Embrun, Ontario are... well... wierd. Someone a few months ago expanded the 'Politics' section, and by doing so, accidentally created a situation where there were three sections: 1) Municipal, 2) Provincial/Federal, 3) Provincial/Federal, with the 2nd section being a glitched combination of the other two. I removed that section. However, you reverted it back to the glitched version the same day. I corrected again not long afterwards, and again you reverted it to the giltched version. I have corrected it again, and for the life of me I cannot understand why you insist on reverting to a glitched version. This is not behaviour I would expect of an admin. I'll assume good faith and believe that this is result of someone hacking your account or something of the like, but it's getting harder to do that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.106.109.9 (talk) 06:18, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

When you look at the difference all you see is material being removed. All you need to do is use an edit summary, like you did the last time, explaining why you removed it. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 16:48, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
