Hi Omnipaedista. I saw that you took an interest in the Sitel (now Foundever) and Sykes Enterprises pages. I disclosed a connection to Foundever and requested some tweaks here to the Sykes Enteprrises page. My request is to more clearly indicate in the Lead that it is now acquired and no longer in operation. Could I bother you to take a look and consider my request?

I will soon look into it. --Omnipaedista (talk) 15:48, 11 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Done. --Omnipaedista (talk) 05:35, 13 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Omnipaedista! I saw that you copied a section of the universals debate into the nominalism article. I am currently writing an essay which involves nominalism, in extension also around the question of open source knowledge production. I would be really curious why you make your edits, and in this specific case, why you chose to make an edit to the nominalism page and why you copied the section from the universal problem page? The tiniest hint/insight would be of great help! Thanks!

I frequently edit philosophy articles because I have a keen interest in philosophy. I chose to edit the Nominalism page because I am particularly interested in medieval philosophy. I copied the history section from another page because I believe each philosophy article should have a history section. Nominalism did not have such a section before I edited it. I chose to copy the section from another article because I did not have time to write a history section from scratch at the time. The relevant section from Problem of universals is reasonably good so I copied parts of it. --Omnipaedista (talk) 15:06, 15 June 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Cleanup tags[edit]

I'm not sure why you're removing cleanup tags with the edit summary of "obsolete". If you're doing it because they're old, please don't do that. If you haven't fixed the problem (for example, adding sources to an article that's been tagged as having unsourced content), just leave the tag there. Also, I think you've got some misunderstanding about notability. Notability, as a Wikipedia concept, does not apply to article content. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:19, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
  • Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.

Cabrilho's birth date[edit]

Hi, I noticed you reversed Cabrilho birth year, from 1496-1497, back to the outdated 1498, quoting again Kelsey. In reference 5, from Wendy Kramer, Cabrilho declared to be 35 years old in early 1532. That will bring his birth year to 1496 or 1497, depending on which month he was born. Surely not though 1498, going back to Kelsey outdated estimates. Now we know better. Can you correct your erroneous editing please? If you want to refer to a source, replace 1 by 5. Thank you 104.220.108.138 (talk) 03:52, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for the clarification. Done. --Omnipaedista (talk) 13:02, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Just wanted to say "Thanks" for the input you made to the article, because the JSA collections really do need their own highlight.

Thanks for your kind words. --Omnipaedista (talk) 01:42, 12 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Renaming of Neurotree?[edit]

Dear Omnipaedista, On 28 April 2018 you (I think) changed the name of a page from "Neurotree, Academic Family Tree" to "Neurotree". I am sorry I initially offended against whatever Wikipedia policy requires single-barrel page titles. But now I think it would have been better for the page title to have been "Academic Family Tree". Academic Family Tree (https://academictree.org) currently contains 72 trees from disciplines as diverse as history, public policy, literature, advertising, astronomy, geography, and mathematics for all of which it is difficult to see their connection to neuroscience. Can such a change be made to a page title without wreaking havoc with all the other articles with links to it? (I do not have the faintest idea.) Robert P. O'Shea (talk) 06:29, 23 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, I renamed it because a title should ideally be about one primary topic only. I support renaming the page to Academic Family Tree. Renaming it is justified. It would be harmless as well. The only thing is that you and I cannot perform the move because we are not admins. This particular redirect happens to be performable only by an admin. You would need to apply for the move here. --Omnipaedista (talk) 19:11, 23 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thanks, Will do. Robert P. O'Shea (talk) 07:33, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
