Wikipedia:Redirect for Discussion

Just letting you know I am nominating the redirect page Saft for discussion because if anything it should be an article and not redirecting to something unrelated. --Tedd-the-Tiger (talk) 06:45, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is a redirect stub article. So, if you can write the article about Saft, you would do it, because Saft is a very important company in the electric vehicle industry (batteries). --Mac (talk) 06:51, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

UNPA

I am happy to see you have taken an interest in the United Nations Parliamentary Assembly article. My hope is that we can improve it enough to get it to Featured Article status (see Wikipedia:Featured article candidates.) We should try to get permission from Andreas Bummel to include the proposed UNPA flag (the one with parliamentary benches). Captain Zyrain 20:09, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am ready to help to improve this article. Where can we contact him ?. (If you want, you can send me an email). I belive IPU would obtain a UN General Assembly subsidiary organ status. Regards.--Mac 20:14, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Email

Here is the answer:

Hello,

Mr. Bummel forwarded your request to me. You are welcome to use the proposed design of a UNPA logo and flag on Wikipedia. Please credit me with the design.

Compressed air articles

Thanks for your recent edits, those articles are looking a lot less like MDI ads than they used to. I'm trying to push specific MDI details onto the MDI page (although I've got no problem with using its technologies as an example, as you have done), and I'm also thrifting 'external links' on each of that cascade of articles so that there aren't too many for each company.

Solar power in the United States

Please rename (move) Solar photovoltaic power in the U.S. to Solar power in the United States. No redirect is necessary. This move has been requested at WP:RM 199.125.109.102 (talk) 20:10, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done by Vegaswikian. This is OK. Thank you. --Mac (talk) 21:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PHEV energy displacement

On 13:21, 27 May 2008, you added the energy displacement section to the PHEV article. The figure given seems right, but I have been looking for an authoritative source for such a rule of thumb.

Archiving

Hi, you should really consider archiving your talk page instead of just deleting whole sections of it. Also, simply labeling such deletions as minor (like here) could be seen as a disingenuous use of the edit summary. NJGW (talk) 12:12, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oil price increases since 2003

You are still adding links to redirects when the real article is already linked to (such as you did at Oil price increases since 2003). This is getting disruptive. Please stop. NJGW (talk) 14:29, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oil shock is another name to oil crisis and this could be added. It would be interesting to know the differences, if any, between oil shocks and oil crisis.
Soaring is very used in a lot of literature, including the own article, about oil prices increses and specially usefull for non-native English speakers. --Mac (talk) 05:46, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you can find a good set of sources which differentiates between Oil shock and Oil crisis, go ahead and write an article. Right now it looks like you don't even know the difference, so you are only cluttering up the "See also" sections. Someone who clicks on both links and finds they lead to the same place will assume that the editors writing the page are amateurish for creating such double re-directs and will revert, same as I did. Also, I don't think that each article in Wikipedia has room for a glossary at the end. Those who need a definition can easily look up what ever word they don't know, rather than us trying to guess all the words they may be unfamiliar with. NJGW (talk) 16:00, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Really, a crisis is stronger than a shock, but sometime the energy crisis (really, the petroleum crisis) is refered as a shock crisis. So, the entry in the see also section could be :

Oil crisis (sometimes also called shock petroleum crisis).

On the other hand, I clearly see amateurism in the oil crisis page.

Finally, soaring is included in the context of the article and a link to the meaning of this term is included in the text of the article .--Mac (talk) 08:11, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

--Mac (talk) 08:11, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First point: "a crisis is stronger than a shock", great, but did you see up above where I asked for references that discuss the difference?

Second point: The see also section isn't for making distinctions or providing definitions, it's for helping people find more information on similar topics (and especially not for links that go back to the top of the same page).

Third point: Yes, good where it belongs. Putting links to every word you don't know in the "see also" section is not appropriate. NJGW (talk) 15:43, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You can find it here. It is similar to a stub or a split of a section. It is project for an article, that can become a great article. I.e. see the biodiesel article that I begun in 2003 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Biodiesel&oldid=703349) with only a few words. There must be a beginning (sometimes a modest beginning). Regards. --Mac (talk) 08:29, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

All energy from renewable sources

A tag has been placed on All energy from renewable sources, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under 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.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Phlegm Rooster (talk) 18:43, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your redirects

Hi Mac, i have some comments about the redirects you make, as Wikipedia is not the Yellow pages (Wikipedia:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_directory), this redirect [3] redirecting a product to a manufacturer list ? This one [4] a manufacturer to a process ? see WP:SPAM, if a manufacturer is notable enough it can have its own article, i am sure you are helping with the best intentions, please follow the guidelines. Cheers Mion (talk) 13:01, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And please stop making redirects, at Wikipedia a redirect is only created when an article pagename is renamed or 2 articles are merged, for alternative expressions of a name there is Wiktionary [5]. Cheers. Mion (talk) 13:31, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have not found an article about UMG Si and only information about this product related to a CaliSolar. So, I redirected an article about solar cell manufacturer. But, I have created an article about CaliSolar. Upto the moment appears a more generic article about crystalline silicon and its types, one can use it. On the other hand, Wiktionary is only a definition website and cannot have encyclopedic content. So, I suggest merge polycristalline silicon, monocristalline silicon and UMG Si in the same article.--Mac (talk) 13:43, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

UMG-Si wafer [6][7] if you are so impressed by UMG-Si write an article about it, and i mean these edits [8],[9],[10],[11],[12], , its a lot of work to put them up for speedy delete, Cheers Mion (talk) 13:58, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I can use these links to be included in the article (I think it would be called UMG Si - or UMG sillicon better- ). This material has got money from the DoE to research and produce, so it is an interesting possibility for low cost solar power. On the other hand, about the other redirects, they were created (and are valid) because of different reasons (I am going to write more about them tomorow). --Mac (talk) 14:05, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article´s section about nuclear energy is NOT neutral. It merits the tag, because does not talks about nuclear decline. And the press release from the greens is clear. Increasing renewables can 100% displace decline nuclear --Mac (talk) 05:48, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dude, you copy/pasted straight from the link. That's not allowed, and that's all that's being said. You've done it before and if you keep doing it you're going to get yourself banned.

Well, first of all, you don't seem to be interested in the opinion of the community, Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links,spam policies, but only in your own opinion, notability is not the question here. spamming is the issue, Mion (talk) 06:24, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is here the MAIN question. This is not any link to promote something, but tune Wikipedia to include important scientific and technical improvements, recognized by the United States Departament of Energy and other parties, as Chicago Tribune. Do you think your opinion is more important than theirs and from other independent people?. If so, you are wrong.

But its also your personal opinion, if notability is your point, instead of only making the redirect, you have to establish the notability as wel by providing the proper references to it, this [19] is a publication by Advantage Business Media ,so the only thing you do is promoting magazine X. Cheers Mion (talk) 06:41, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I repeat this is NOT my personal opinion. It is a neutral POV from different neutral and important sources, included United States Department of Energy and Chicago Tribune.

This is worse than include a link or a redirect in a topic about commercial goods. It is create an ENTIRE article about commercial goods.

Redirects vs. stubs

Instead of all of the new redirects, have you considered creating stub articles for these people and businesses? They are some great topics that deserve even more coverage on Wikipedia. Cheers. youngamerican (wtf?) 13:59, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good work. Thanks. youngamerican (wtf?) 14:07, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Thin-film photovoltaics

A tag has been placed on Thin-film photovoltaics, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the guidelines on spam as well as the Wikipedia:Business' FAQ for more information.

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), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Dicklyon (talk) 15:04, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

External links

Please read wp:EL. You've been here long enough to learn the way things work. This addition is clearly not a good EL. I might be useful as a ref (maybe). If you can't play by the rules around here, maybe you should start your own wiki. NJGW (talk) 12:56, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Toddler. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. --CliffC (talk) 14:00, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

For adding the classification to Natural Capital I wanted someone else to do it, since I did most of the article, which was a sad skinny looking mongrel when I found it recently. Very important topic. skip sievert (talk) 16:19, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heaven

Mac, please have a look at Wikipedia:Words to avoid, before you make new edits as you did on Energy from heaven Petrodictator fuel from hell and Renewable energy. creating them in the redirects is evading NPOV preventing others to balance it, so don't do it again.

United Staes energy independence and resilience

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give United Staes energy independence and resilience a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 09:41, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Reference" links promoting commercial sites

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Talk:Toddler. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --CliffC (talk) 16:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Upmerged stub templates

In essence, an upmerged stub template is a stub tag with a narrow scope, feeding into a stub category with a broader scope. Typically this is one where the narrower scope is one that's perfectly sensible, but doesn't have much in the way of current population. Especially, where a topic has been split up into its natural subdivisions, some of which are well-populated, but others undersized. Hope that helps; if there's some particular context to the question, I may be able to give you more specifics.

It must be said that this has come up several times before, so in the hopes of making the information easier to find, I've added a redirect at Wikipedia:Upmerge to the relevant section of the glossary. Alai (talk) 10:57, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As to how they're coded: see {{StanislausCountyCA-geo-stub}}, say. It's also customary to float this at WP:WSS/P, though if it's clearly on an existing pattern, these would generally be "waved through". Alai (talk) 11:02, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
