View source for User talk:Louis Waweru




Hi {{PAGENAME}}, and [[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]] to Wikipedia!  Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =).  I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have.  You'll probably find it easiest to start with a [[Wikipedia:Tutorial|tutorial]] of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|sandbox]].  When you're contributing, you'll probably find the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style|manual of style]] to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines.  First, write from a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], second, [[Wikipedia:Be bold in updating pages|be bold in editing pages]], and third, use [[Wikipedia:Wikiquette|wikiquette]].  Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the [[Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines|policies and guidelines]] page.  You might also be interested in [[Wikipedia:How to write a great article|how to write a great article]] and possibly [[Wikipedia:Picture tutorial|adding some images to your articles]].

Be sure to get involved in the community &ndash; you can contact me at [[User talk:Spangineer|my talk page]] if you have any questions, and you can check out the [[Wikipedia:village pump|village pump]], where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things.  If you're looking for something to do, check out the [[Wikipedia:Community Portal|community portal]]. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;.

Again, welcome!  It's great to have you.  Happy editing! --[[User:Spangineer|Spangineer]]&nbsp;<small>[[User talk:Spangineer|<span style="color:brown;">(háblame)</span>]]</small> 17:30, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

== False positive! ==

Sorry! You can go ahead. But you can dump and request a URSUP and try to prove that the username is yours. --<strong>[[User:Cream|<span style="color:blue;">Crea</span><span style="color:#000080;">m</span><span style="color:#808000;">y!</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Cream|Talk]]</sup></strong> 01:39, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

== Re: ==

Actually, i am not using a bot, just a extremely smart program called [[WP:Huggle|Huggle]] and it helps me to compare vandalism :) And i revert in a flash too :) --<strong>[[User:Cream|<span style="color:blue;">Crea</span><span style="color:#000080;">m</span><span style="color:#808000;">y!</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Cream|Talk]]</sup></strong> 01:54, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

==Deliberate factual errors?==
Honest mistake.  I think you want to pay more attention to article histories and what you're doing before you start dropping vandalism warnings on people's talkpages.  [[User:Fordmadoxfraud|Ford MF]] ([[User talk:Fordmadoxfraud|talk]]) 21:44, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
:I seemed like the best fit, and it was only a Level 1. Be careful about introducing new facts to articles, especially in the lead. <small><span style="border:1px solid #955619;padding:1px;"><span style="color:#955619;">[[User:Louis Waweru|<b>Louis Waweru</b>]]</span> [[User_talk:Louis Waweru|<span style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#955619;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 21:57, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

==Cairo Image==
[[Image:Cairo orascom.jpg|left|thumb|150px]]
from left to right buildings

the black building is the National Bank of Egypt, the light brown building is the World Trade center, then its the Conrad Hotel (pretty obvious, the one in white), finally the last one is the latest Cairoian Skyscraper it is ownde by Orascom, and it called the Nile Towers..

==Thanks==

Thanks for the new hierarchy image. Never thought of that when I posted the other before. This one is way better than the one I've translated from the french page. [[User:Freedom Fighter 1988|Freedom Fighter 1988]] ([[User talk:Freedom Fighter 1988|talk]]) 23:45, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
:Thank you =) It was my first time trying to make an SVG image, but I don't think it worked out too well, so I put up a PNG. I was a little confused by [http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/6209/captureab1.png this box], can you check it to make sure it's ok? Here's the source if you want to work with my SVG to change it up:

Hello, thank you for improving the article on [[Derry Brownson]], it was so badly written and formatted that I suspected that it was a sort of joke; I'm not sure of that person notability because I don't have time to check. bye.--[[User:Doktor Who|Doktor Who]] ([[User talk:Doktor Who|talk]]) 19:55, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

== Article Size Graph ==

Thank you very much for the article size graph software.  I'm using it in Firefox where it seems to be working well.

It is interesting to see the different graph patterns.

sawtooth graph - [[Wikipedia:Reference desk/Language]]

very stable - [[German Requiem]]

eccentric behaviour - [[Book of Mormon]]

I asked about this because I often see comments on talk pages "this article is too long" and I'm interested on whether concerns like this are addressed or ignored.

Thanks, [[User:Wanderer57|Wanderer57]] ([[User talk:Wanderer57|talk]]) 20:48, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

:Sure, it was fun. That language desk graph is very interesting. It's like the archive bot is fighting an endless series of waves of questions. If 500 edits isn't enough to help you visualize what you're trying to do, you can manually edit the number in the url bar (up to 5000). On the history page you'd be looking at the number after "&limit=". Here's how the language desk looks at a higher resolution: [http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=lc&chs=1000x300&chg=5,10&chco=0077CC&chm=B,E6F2FA,0,0,0&chls=1,0,0&chtt=Size%20of%20Wikipedia:Reference%20desk/Language%20in%20bytes%20(over%20last%202673%20edits)&chxt=y&chxr=0,13227,301298&chd=t:46523,16108,25173,24124,33310,42349,50518,60811,69863,78587,88213,95093,104504,115431,127106,136885,146238,157412,164705,174788,181650,189054,197868,207929,215699,223430,233616,247429,261452,271861,277960,284834,293500,294757,27535,24039,32390,41334,42397,49484,59578,49386,28480,35297,41080,46262,41073,49660,56257,51071,50821,59077,65614,75441,62174,74178,82954,93120,74489,83759,91611,98023,104907,113801,122594,51926,41131,48688,39267,46293,53934,62374,71177,81455,47020,56691,56651,64041,64656,80766,54047,60837,67332,69677,77140,83034,88794,69546,75367,83685,91798,102316,111371,117882,51054,64202,69097,77884,87927&chl=September%207,%202008|September%2010|September%2013|September%2017|September%2023|September%2028|October%202|October%206|October%2010|October%2015|October%2018|October%2022|&chds=13227,301298 graph].

::The Y axis scaling on this one seemed to behave differently than the others I tried.  Perhaps it is simply that the maximum size value is low.  [[User talk:Allstarecho]]  [[User:Wanderer57|Wanderer57]] ([[User talk:Wanderer57|talk]]) 13:11, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

:::You found a bug =) What happens is when figuring out the min/max size of the axis it considered all 2125 edits. But I have it set not to plot every single edit, but every few edits. So the edit that made the Y axis so tall wasn't plotted. I can make it plot more edits, but there was a problem with the google URL getting long (really long). Google has a way to overcome this, but I found it to be really confusing (it didn't use [[base 10]], I honestly wasn't sure what base it was using). Also, google will only let the charts be 1000px wide. So I guess it would be possible to plot up to 1000 edits (1 plot per pixel) minus the space taken up by the Y axis text. Glad you're still using it...I'll try to fix it up soon. BTW, that is one busy talk page...hahah. <small><span style="border:1px solid #955619;padding:1px;"><span style="color:#955619;">[[User:Louis Waweru|<b>Louis Waweru</b>]]</span> [[User_talk:Louis Waweru|<span style="color:#FFFFFF;background:#955619;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 08:35, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on [[:Uniform Land Use Review Procedure]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G12|section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be an unambiguous [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations|copyright infringement]]. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.nyc.gov/html/mancb2/downloads/pdf/handbook_appendices_2006.pdf. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at [[Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials]]. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|Wikipedia's copyright policy]] for more details, or ask a question [[Wikipedia:Help desk|here]]. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Uniform Land Use Review Procedure|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

: {{reply to|Sphilbrick}} I think this is an unacceptable way for an admin to use the Copyvio tool and the CSD process, for which G12 seems to be a pattern for you. It is offensive for you to ignore the tool's warning to check for false positives and simply leave it up to other admins to put out your fire. Immediately automating CSD-G12 with a Twinkle is offensive, seizing a page and calling for administrative vote when administration is demonstrating a disregard for the effort required of a proper review is frightening, and most of all removing regular users from the process is offensive to the all user classes.

: The Copyvio tool likely behaves this way for all legislation ([https://i.imgur.com/CJuBRrP.png example]). The tool also detected a derivative document, and not the bill I referenced in the article. The source of the content is a bill that was later enacted into law by the NY State Senate. I was reading your talk page copyright section, and believe this is one of your 1 to 2% good faith mistakes. I would appreciate you deescalating the issue before it passes through a procedure that is based on admin consensus. For the 1 to 2%, there is no good outcome of being profiled into guilty until proven innocent situation. 

: It's very reminiscent of my youth during a Giuliani and Bloomberg stop-and-frisk NYPD, and the nighttime abductions by strangers, often in regular clothes, that fortunately turned out to be real enforcers and not serial-killers. Even the judges eventually grew sick of prosecutors marching in profiled after profiled presumed violator, as admins will eventually grow tired of verifying G12 CSDs stemming from questionable and completely subjective probable cause. Over a career that 1 to 2% will grow to a significant number, and misusing tools to bypass checks and balances will cause that percentage to balloon as well. Just as bad, bad practice is contagious, it affects partners, then departments and colleagues, to the point where some violation is so common that the entire power holding community aims for accepts the normalcy of it all to the point where maximum force is used by default and instead of warning jaywalkers or traffic violators, civil lawsuits are settled for families of dead presumed violators, or regular users are manually disputing someone's automated maximal-force-option declaration of guilt.

: This behavior is not a 1-2% "mistake" but a pattern of abuse and misuse of the tools and processes I'd expect an admin to have an exemplary level of respect for. Throwing the cuffs on the average class and turning them over to a process for powerholders, in a community where votership is likely so low normal user participation is probably a minority vote compared to the extra-class-holding vote, is indefensible, regardless of the overall end result on purging copyvios.

: I just wanted to let you know my encounter with your style of patrolling was 10/10 garbage. Please stop inventing policy by asking people to politely explain why your G12-CSD is invalid on your talk page and politely just stop doing every single thing you demonstrated here. All of the things you didn't do while and after using the automation tools, start doing.

: This experience is so much like my encounters with those pigs who don't mind having a long list of people complaining about being wrongly thrown into bureaucratic process with a layover in some holding cell.

: We have this law here in NYC where it's a violation to take up two seats on the subway. It was written to have a legal reason to bring homeless people off the streets during cold winters. One summer day, after waiting in a holding cell for the administration to get aroudn to my case, the judge explained why the violation exists, and actually shouted, in actual fury, to stop bringing these bullshit cases before him. 

: That's my analogy for you and your claims of "blatant violation of code [[WP:CSD#G12]]" before an audience of admins. <span style="font-size:.8em;color:#955619;border:1px solid #955619;padding:1px;">[[User:Louis Waweru|<b>Louis Waweru</b>]] [[User_talk:Louis Waweru|<span style="color:white;background:#955619;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</span>]]</span> 09:17, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
::{{u|Louis Waweru}}, Wow, that's quite a rant. 
::
::> It is offensive for you to ignore the tool's warning to check for false positives
::
::I think it's rather offensive for you to jump to conclusions without facts. While a sample size of 10 is too small to draw definitive conclusions, I took a glance at the last 10 items I reviewed. In six of the 10 cases I concluded that there was a false positive and identified the reported potential as "No action needed". That's exactly what's supposed to happen. I don't make any claim to perfection. I've reviewed 10 times as many reports as you have edits, and it is inevitable that some mistakes will be made.
::
::> This behavior is not a 1-2% "mistake" but a pattern of abuse 
::Please provide some evidence to back up this claim
::
::>  I would appreciate you deescalating the issue before it passes through a procedure that is based on admin consensus.
::What on earth does this mean?
::
::> The source of the content is a bill that was later enacted into law by the NY State Senate
::
::I am aware that the actual content of legislation is an exception to the usual copyright restrictions even if the material is not explicitly identified as not being covered by copyright. I'm also aware that this limitation is a little more complicated than it sounds, but that's probably beyond the scope of this discussion. On multiple occasions, I've seen an editor add some material to an article and include an excerpt from legislation to help illustrate the point, and I invariably accept those as false positives. That may be what happened in this case but it didn't look like that to me. Clearly you weren't writing a long article about some topic which you supplemented with relevant legislative language, it looks to me like you just copied and pasted some material and thoguth it would serve as an article. It doesn't look remotely acceptable as an article, so if you think it would be better to undo the copyright removal and remove the article because it's not up to standards, we could go that route.
::
::Regarding your two seats in the subway analogy, start by saying I'm a big fan of using analogies to help illustrate a point, but I haven't yet figured out how taking up two seats on the subway is an allergist to trying to keep Wikipedia clear of copyright violations. I urge you to do 1% as much as I have, that is clear two hundred reports, and then come back and tell me how the analogy works.

Please do not create hoaxes on Wikipedia, as you did at [[:User:Popride2/Technical Difficulty]]. Doing so is considered to be [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]] and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the [[Wikipedia:Sandbox|sandbox]]. Under [[Wikipedia:CSD#G3|section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the '''[[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|loss of editing privileges]]'''. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:User:Popride2/Technical Difficulty|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. <!-- Template:Db-hoax-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 17:53, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

*Im seconding this. Final warning. Stop with the [[WP:NPA|personal attacks]] and [[WP:HARRASSMENT|harrassment]] of other editors. Wikipedia requires you to be [[WP:CIVIL]] and [[WP:AGF|to assume good faith]], and you're failing both spectacularly.

*:I always assume good faith. Except for when I am being accused of attacks against my character. I invite you to leave this club you claim in I am in, and take seriously your duty to not let some stupid set of scripts ruin Wikipedia.
*:The previous two sections are in violation of [[Wikipedia:Civility]]. Stop accusing me of harassment of other editors by using links to generic pages like  that. Assuming good faith has been a tenet of mine well before Wikipedia. 
*:Try not to be so close minded, I was creating a dialog from a place where '''the user admits no idea of what the text about to be automatically posted to my page was. Actually, the user went on to deny any responsibility for it.'''
*:What is different with what we did to each other that got you involved to claim I am in danger of some sort or punitive punishment?
*:If you agree with the bold, and see no role for you to play there, just send a Y. I don't think there's much to discuss here. Though I would be happy to help you expand your knowledge of WP:CIVIL. I would love to hear how the previous three sections including this one even pretend to comply with it.

*::Again, you two are warning the victim. The only facts you have given me contradict your standings.
*::How about take a break and looking at this with fresh eyes later on?

==Your signature and linter errors ==

Just a reminder that your signature contains obsolete font tags. They create [[WP:Linter|Linter]] errors, and it is advised that you change your signature to <code><nowiki><span style="font-size:.8em;color:#955619;border:1px solid #955619;padding:1px;">[[User:Louis Waweru|<b>Louis Waweru</b>]] [[User_talk:Louis Waweru|<span style="color:white;background:#955619;">&nbsp;Talk&nbsp;</span>]]</span></nowiki></code> ASAP.

The purpose of this message is because Linter errors affect the way the page looks, and with a lot of errors, the page may render badly. To reduce Linter errors, please change your signature.

If the software doesn't accept my replacement signature, let me know, and if that's the case, unfortunately you may have to change it to something else. [[User:Sheep8144402|<span style="color:#00ff00;">Sheep</span>]] ([[User talk:Sheep8144402|talk]]) 02:21, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

::Eventually the font tag properties will revert to their default values once browsers drop support for the font tags.

== Please find Consensus on page 2022 Peruvian self-coup attempt ==

You've made a number of recent proposed edits as well as a page move to [[2022 Peruvian self-coup attempt]] that lack consensus on the talk page. Your edits may be correct and they may be incorrect but in order to find that it's necessary to work on the talk page with other editors such as myself to build consensus before unilaterally redoing the page. I would also like to warn you against edit warring.

To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about [[WP:EPTALK|how this is done]]. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. 

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''&mdash;especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period.  Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert.  Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.{{Break}}Please take your disagreement to talk before engaging in mass reversions.<!-- Template:uw-3rr --> [[User:Alcibiades979|Alcibiades979]] ([[User talk:Alcibiades979|talk]]) 07:15, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

::My edits aren't controversial, the move makes sense given the discussion, and your interactions with me were extreme actions like this instead of any response to my comments or argument against my sourced additions.
