Never leave it till it's done.
Be the labour great or small,
Do it well or not at all.

editDisruption
editAccording to WP:DISRUPT: Disruptive editing is a pattern of editing that . . . disrupts progress towards improving an article or building the encyclopedia. . . . Disruptive editing is not always intentional. Editors may be accidentally disruptive because they don't understand how to correctly edit, or because they lack the social skills or competence necessary to work collaboratively. The fact that the disruption occurs in good faith does not change the fact that it is harmful to Wikipedia.

Infoboxen
edit- The Wikipedia policy WP:UNDUE is very clear. "An article should not give undue weight to any aspects of the subject, but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject. "WP:UNDUE "applies not only to article text, but to images, wikilinks, external links, categories, and all other material as well." So the infobox, which is a summary of the article, should not emphasize obscure facts (trivia) that are not essential to the article.

I installed an infobox, something like an article's identity card

editItalics guideline
editWhile italicizing the title of a musical work within the text of the article is normal practice, displaying the titles of Wikipedia articles on specific works in italics, e.g. Medea (Pacini) is not recommended, per Template:Italic title/doc and Wikipedia:Naming conventions.

- Death of WP
- "At the root of this disease are the human drives for power, an inherently flawed "consensus" procedure, and the lack of an explicit policy against bureaucratization."
"Five years ago, Wikipedia could be defined as "three milion encyclopedia articles which anyone can edit". I am afraid that today it has become "a decadent social networking site with 10,000 members who have three million articles to play with". One just has to look at the pages in the "User talk:", "Wikipedia talk:", and "Template talk:" to realize that most Wikipedia decisions are being made by a small minority of "bosses" who seem to derive more pleasure out of social interaction (and, in particular, the sense of power that comes from "bossing" over other members) than on making real substantial contributions to Wikipedia."
"At the root of the problem is that Wikipedia's decision-making mechanism is thoroughly broken. As we saw here, and in countless other cases, any clique of ten editors can write a rule or standard, vote it among themselves, and declare it "consensus". Almost every guideline in Wikipedia:* was decided in this way. No country could survive more than a few years with such a "randomcratic" government; and it seems that Wikipedia cannot either. All the best (if still possible to hope), --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 22:43, 23 February 2010 (UTC)" [4]

At the end of your messages you must put your signature by signing with four ~~~~ (just as I have done) or by pressing the button in the editor bar as shown here in the picture. By the way, you don't need to sign edits that you make in the articles themselves as those messages will be deleted. Another valuable page that may provide information and assistance is User:Persian Poet Gal/"How-To" Guide to Wikipedia. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance and contact information. Good Luck editing! |

editSwans sing before they die - 'twere no bad thing
Did certain persons die before they sing.
(Samuel Taylor Coleridge, 1722-1834)
- Lege feliciter
- Scribimus indocti doctique poemata passim = Each desperate blockhead dares to write (lit: “Learned or not, we shall write poems without distinction”)
- Scribimus indocti doctique. (All dare to write, who can or cannot read: Samuel Johnson)
- Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes - I fear the Greeks, even when they bring gifts. (Virgil) Aeneid, Book 2 line 49
- E scusami se è poco = and I beg your pardon if it’s too little! (of a long message)
- “Every revolution evaporates and leaves behind only the slime of a new bureaucracy.” Kafka
- Major Strasser is one of the reasons the Third Reich enjoys the reputation it has today
Ogden Nash verses
editIn 1949, Ogden Nash wrote a set of humorous verses to accompany each movement for a Columbia Masterworks recording of Carnival of the Animals conducted by Andre Kostelanetz. Recited on the original album by Noel Coward, they are now often included when the work is performed. The conclusion of the verse for the "Fossils", for example, fits perfectly with the punchline-like first bar of the music:
- At midnight in the museum hall
- The fossils gathered for a ball
- There were no drums or saxophones,
- But just the clatter of their bones,
- A rolling, rattling, carefree circus
- Of mammoth polkas and mazurkas.
- Pterodactyls and brontosauruses
- Sang ghostly prehistoric choruses.
- Amid the mastodontic wassail
- I caught the eye of one small fossil.
- "Cheer up, sad world," he said, and winked-
- "It's kind of fun to be extinct."

editTip of the moment...
Tell us about yourself using userboxes
Userboxes are for decorating your userpage and to tell little details about yourself. They have become a fun tradition on Wikipedia. Userboxes help other Wikipedians to know a brief summary about you; you can tell other Wikipedians that you come from Switzerland, that you like classical music, etc. There are hundreds of premade userboxes to choose from. And it is easy to design new userboxes. They require just three things to make them: the userbox template, the name of an icon image page, and a blurb that you type in. To see the code for the userbox included here click "Edit" on the toolbar above. – – Read more: To add this auto-randomizing template to your user page, use {{totd-random}}
