Sources needed
[edit]This looks accurate to me, but is unsourced. Are you aware of any (ideally, middle-of-the-road, neither "pro" nor "anti") source that address this issue? WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:37, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
- Never mind; the problem has been overtaken by events (namely, that I finally merged the Inclusive school article into Inclusion (education)). Please feel free to take a look at the now enormous article and remove anything that seems suspicious or redundant. WhatamIdoing (talk) 01:39, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
That merge is a long-time coming. I will continue to look through and hopefully improve what I can. I've got access to some great resources that should be of use.
Jim Steele (talk) 02:52, 24 October 2009 (UTC)
Special school
[edit]Just a heads-up that Special school has been nominated for deletion by an inexperienced editor. If you are aware of any sources that talk about special schools (e.g., the history of schools for blind students) or self-contained classrooms (which is currently mentioned in this article, on the same theory as resource room), then you might want to add them. WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:22, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
I'm working on it. Thanks for your help along the way.

Deleting users comments
[edit]I'm sure it was an accident but you should not delete comments from talk pages made by other users as you have done with my comment on the special education article.[1]. Please could you focus on the article and on the sourcing and avoid personal attacks. Dahliarose (talk) 16:27, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
- Could you focus on not complaining so much? Perhaps, even add a source instead of kvetching?Jimsteele9999 (talk) 23:27, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
- Wow, what an inappropriate response.
- You may be inclined to believe that because so many Wikipedians are exceedingly polite, and allow you the opportunity to save face (for example, "I'm sure it was an accident, but ..."), that they are weak. It was actually an incredibly gracious thing Dahliarose attempted to do for you, something not often found outside in the real world, and you spat in her face for it.
- You may feel tempted to play King Of The Mountain. But I assure you, that would be a mistake. You'd be surprised how quickly you can become permanently blocked. And equally surprised at how soon an attempt to re-register with a new handle can be detected.
- You don't need a fucking source to tell you personal attacks are inappropriate. If you did, you'd be too stupid to operate a computer at all, much less edit Wikipedia. (Oddly enough, however, Dahliarose did leave you one.)
- Just cut the shit. It's not new and not interesting. Drop the bully act and get over yourself immediately.
- --Ben Culture (talk) 10:23, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
- Dear "Ben" Thanks for the comment on a post almost a year old. Seems you need to be reminded to Please comment on the content and not the contributors. No, being polite isn't being weak, "Ben". But yes, you are right, it isn't "new." The post you refer to was made nearly a year ago. So, er, yeah, speaking of intelligence...Jimsteele9999 (talk) 14:25, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Re: Stub class
[edit]Hi Jim, I'm not sure actually. As I'm sure you've figured out, the template was put there by WikiProject Education, their article grading scale can be found here. User:WhatamIdoing, who I notice you've also crossed paths with, left a message on their talk page, and it seems the project may not be active, or not as active as it once was. I've not dealt with any WikiProjects, it may be considered poor form to change the class status. I guess there are two options, leave a note on the project's talk page asking a participant to assess the article, or having assessed it yourself be bold and swap out the "Stub" in the talk template, {{WikiProject Education |class=Stub|importance=}}. I think I'd be bold. Hope this helps, Jaydec (talk) 07:08, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
AIV reports
[edit] Thank you for your report to AIV but it was badly formatted (subsequently fixed). Please read the instructions in the edit page on how to format the reports. This is important as the clean up bots need this special formatting to do their work. Thank you for your attention. -- Alexf(talk) 00:22, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
Speech and language disability
[edit]Hello, I just found your new article Speech and language disability and was wondering if it should better be merged into language disorder. To me it seems that both articles treat the same subject. De728631 (talk) 17:14, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Home-Coming (Kafka)
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Home-Coming (Kafka) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. --ANowlin: talk 23:36, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, I understand it was too short! I was in the process of adding more and making it all wikipedean when I could not save it because it was marked for speedy deletion in a milisecond! Arg!
Jim Steele (talk) 23:46, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
- {{us-draftfirst}} --ANowlin: talk 23:57, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
I can't remember what the page covered, but if I remember correctly, I tagged it as A1 because it was short, and appeared to cover something that wouldn't meet the inclusion criteria. Follow the above advice (blue triangle post), and post a link to my talk. I'll take a look there, and we can see if it does meet inclusion criteria. Sorry for the super-speedy speedy deletion. --ANowlin: talk 23:57, 23 May 2010 (UTC)- My screen showed it had been there for a while when I tagged it. I'll pull the CSD and place an underconstruction tag for now. Talk me when done. --ANowlin: talk 23:59, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Jim,
- Given that ANowlin has nominated multiple articles for speedy deletion today, and never once waited more than seven minutes to spam CSD tags into an article, I seriously doubt that ANowlin intended any common-sense definition of "been there for a while".
- You certainly aren't the first legitimate editor to get tripped up by this aggressive approach to new page patrolling. ANowlin is one of several editors who are unfortunately (but with excellent intentions) disrupting and discouraging the creation of new articles by instantly spamming tags into the first version.
- I've started a discussion at the CSD policy page that I hope will result in a formal rule that can be invoked to limit this kind of aggressive patrolling on the first creation of a page—perhaps a sort of topic ban that can be imposed on individual editors when necessary. One thing that I think would be helpful in communicating the problem to other editors is the personal reaction of editors like yourself, who set out to create a page that will fully comply with Wikipedia's policies, only to have an aggressive new page patroller instantly land on them with threats of speedy deletion. The community generally suspects, for example, that this behavior scares off new editors, and causes articles to be abandoned (because if it's under threat of deletion, why should I add any more information?). If you'd like to comment, please feel free. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:59, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. ANowlin, no in fact the article had not been there awhile. Come on. It wasn't there for more than five seconds. I was in the midst of adding quite a lot of information and was sourcing it when I received this message saying there was an edit conflict so in fact all that I had done was in vain. Now, I understand the intent of marking articles that are too short for deletion. Seems reasonable. But when you mark them without say, checking at the most the users history (and you would have seen I have been creating articles like this the past week) or at the least waiting say, ten minutes, then you discourage any subsequent editing. As WAID says above, this discourages any work by future editors that you initially marked the article for in the fist place, thus rendering your efforts moot. Indeed, it does seem like a Kafkaesque situation.

Kafka
[edit]When you're writing up short stories by Franz Kafka, could you please make sure to add Category:Short stories by Franz Kafka to the article when you move it into articlespace from your user sandbox? Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 00:55, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, I will do that. Jim Steele (talk) 03:14, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Thank you
[edit]Thanks for your note and the compliment. I wish I could say it is my pleasure to revert vandalism, but it is something which must be done. I will take a look at your recent edits and see if I can figure out what the problem is with the cats. Cheers! ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 02:33, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- It's a dirty job but it's appreciated by many people. Just wondering if you think the author's page and/or The Catcher in the Rye should be protected? Jim Steele (talk) 02:38, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- I doubt you'd find an admin. willing to protect Salinger. Comparatively, the vandalism isn't that bad. Can you be more specific about the problems you are having with categories? I looked at your recent contributions, and nothing was jumping out at me. I doubt I will be online much longer tonight, but I would be happy to look tomorrow. Good work with all these articles, by the way. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 02:45, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- I got spanked for not having a category header for other short stories I was working on. Supposed to at the bottom of the article right? (I'm still acting like a newbie around here, though I can't use the excuse as easily as I used to) I've been trying to add them (wasn't sure if "short stories by J.D. Salinger or a new one "Unpublished short stories by J.D. Salinger" would be necessary. But as they stand they don't have categories, right? Well, if the admin. won't likely protect them, I have faith people like you will keep a close eye on them. Jim Steele (talk) 02:50, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- BTW do you think Scott will ever get around to making the long-awaited sequel to Blade Runner? I've heard from someone the only thing that's keeping him from it is legal stuff. Once again, please keep the close eye on that author's page, it's appreciated. Next, do you think the Finding Forrester mention in his article belongs there as it is not sources and lastly can we agree the "influence" section on CITR is turgid? I mean, one obscure cartoon has a mention of a guy who sees a carousel and it finds a way there. Weird, huh?Jim Steele (talk) 02:30, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Criticism edit
[edit]I know we do not usually share the same view but the "Criticism" edit you did on the special education in the US article may need to be repeated on the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act which has some identical content dolfrog (talk) 18:43, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
Vandal
[edit]You said: "Familiar subject, perhaps a similar question. I see a new user: [3] has essentially used his time to vandalize pages. I won't waste your time asking to place a warning, because if you can direct me how to place one I will. Or just post a sample on my talk page and I can copy and paste it? Thanks!"

Proposed deletion vs. Articles for deletion
[edit]Hi, Proposed deletion is not the same as Articles for deletion. There is no discussion in proposed deletion. An article is deleted after 7 days if no one contest to the deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion}} tag. Anyone, including the article creator, may remove the tag. If that happens, even if no explanation is given or improvements to article made, the proposed deletion is considered to be contested and the article is no longer eligible for deletion through proposed deletion. For more detail, have a look at WP:CONTESTED. I hope that helps. KTC (talk) 03:49, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Jimsteele9999. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, The First Long Train Journey, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
- edit the page
- remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}}
- save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks, Lukeno94 (talk) 21:38, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Minor edits
[edit] Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Pretty much every edit you've made in the past three years has been marked as "minor". What gives?

File source problem with File:Sommerstimberland90(1).jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:Sommerstimberland90(1).jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. XXN, 17:14, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
