Anarchism

Hi Uprisingengineer,

I saw your work on articles related to anarchism and wanted to say hello, as I work in the topic area too. If you haven't already, you might want to watch our noticeboard for Wikipedia's coverage of anarchism, which is a great place to ask questions, collaborate, discuss style/structure precedent, and stay informed about content related to anarchism. Take a look for yourself!

And if you're looking for other juicy places to edit, consider expanding a stub, adopting a cleanup category, or participating in one of our current formal discussions.

Feel free to say hi on my talk page and let me know if these links were helpful (or at least interesting). Hope to see you around. czar 11:30, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Uprisingengineer

Thank you for creating Joseph Dallois.

User:Rosguill, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

There might be a way to reintroduce that Kropotkin quote as part of a much longer article, but as written it isn't due weight and makes the article come off promotional.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Rosguill}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

An article you recently created, Herman Daniel Paul, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. The one source given does not support tthe material. You must have gotten the biographical information from somewhere. Please cite it. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

TheAnarchistLibrary.org links

TheAnarchistLibrary.org links have been 404'ing for the past few days, updating with a more reliable source

Hi, I saw that you have been replacing links with the above edit summary and wanted to suggest an alternative. Both TheAnarchistLibrary.org and Revoltlib.com are hobbyist sites so it would be better to link to the text at HathiTrust.org or another established repo with longevity (e.g., Google Books). Ideally, if the work is in the public domain (expired or rejected copyright), it should be uploaded to Wikisource and we can wikilink right there. This all said, much of the TheAnarchistLibrary.org links were to primary sources, which are generally not what we should be citing as an encyclopedia. It's better to replace those links to secondary source commentary, which reaffirms that the content is both noteworthy and that our paraphrase is not delving into original research. Some TheAnarchistLibrary.org links are not in the public domain. If they're not confirmed as licensed under something like anarchist copyleft no rights reserved, we should not link to copyright violations either. czar 03:01, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Cool, thanks for the heads up! I will probably go the route of uploading and then linking to wikisource. Many of the GoogleBooks links for the cited essays are 1,500+ page tombs (i.e., "The Nineteenth Century: 1890 Articles"), so, appropriately citing that would require adding to the cite tag the start/end page numbers, anchor links, etc., and swapping one hobbyist site with another was a seamless change. Anyway, I'll be taking a look at wikisource now. Uprisingengineer (talk) 14:10, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

My First WikiSource Contribution -- We'll see how this goes. Uprisingengineer (talk) 17:01, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Nice! When uploading to Wikisource I'd also include info on its provenance for anyone who wants to confirm the transcription and that the text is indeed in the public domain. (That one, for example, originally came from Mother Earth in 1915, per the chain of provenance from the Revoltlib.com link in your edit summary to TheAnarchistLibrary.org's copy and so on.

re: the necessity of linking to specific pages in Google Books instead of the full tome, while of course it's better to link to the direct quote's page for an accurate citation, it's still an improvement to link to the full text with no specific page. Other editors will swing by to clean up the citation in the future and/or it's sufficient for a reader to put some effort into verifying the text (better than no link at all!) czar 03:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

Tal has been having some problems lately dut to a maintainer dying. There are several mirrors though, I’m not sure I’d call tal a hobbyist site tho I’m also not sure what clarifies as a hobbyist site, would be interested in clarification on this, thanks. W1tchkr4ft 00 (talk) 17:57, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi, W1tchkr4ft 00. Yeap, it seems like t@l is back, after being down for a month. I haven't updated any of their links in wikipedia for over a week now, so, I guess something is peaking your interest? Anyway, this is not the first time they have gone offline for a month. Yearly downtime of 10% is pretty rough, especially when it happens year after year. Many of the links I fixed were already marked as dead, and not from the site recently going down, but from far back. Many of the links are also to printer-friendly versions, pdf versions, plaintext html versions, on the t@l site, so there were just numerous problems here.

Not sure on the classification of "hobbyist site". I think wiki-related sites are preferred over non-wiki-related ones, due to better curation of non-copyrighted material, etc.. Cheers. Uprisingengineer (talk) 18:42, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

re: "hobbyist", it's more an adjective than a formal classification. Some sites are maintained by academics, hosted on projects meant to be permanent, others are vetted by publishers with rights secured, and others are hosted by amateurs (doing it for the love) on impermanent projects. WP, as a reference source, tries to use the most canonical and reliable sources. More importantly, when our articles were originally written, they relied too heavily on primary source contents when we're really looking to summarize and cite secondary source analysis of those primary source writings. czar 18:55, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Sorry to add more to this, I may have missed a key statement earlier. I don't see anything on t@l's website indicating a maintainer died, or that the site is now known as "tal" and not "t@l":

"Recently, The Anarchist Library website was unexpectedly offline for over a week of downtime. We wanted to write a quick note and let you know that the library is back online as of a few days ago. Some of the hardware grew old and had to be replaced along with some other housekeeping items, like making sure the website has a bit more redundancy. Thanks for hanging in there with us!" (https://theanarchistlibrary.org/special/index) Uprisingengineer (talk) 04:27, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Just a 2021 update, my wikisource texts have been getting mauled by moderators, who, when I ask them why they made changes, respond, "You should have asked me first." I'm not a psychic, if a moderator deletes my text, I would like an explanation when I request one. For now, if I come across any wikisource links during my editing, they will be deleted and redirected to a reliable website, like TheAnarchistLibrary.org.

Copyright problem on Koblenz, Switzerland

Content you added to the above article appears to have been copied from http://libcom.org/files/Petr_Kropotkin__The_Great_French_Revolution_1789-1793_letter.pdf, which is not released under a compatible license. Copying text directly from a source is a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, the content had to be removed. Content you add to Wikipedia should be written in your own words. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa (talk) 12:42, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

@Diannaa: Hi, Diannaa, actually, that book was published in 1909. Here is the entire text of the book, available online, from Google Books: https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Great_French_Revolution_1789_1793/4jCBtEv0i54C?hl=en&gbpv=0 In addition, the author has been dead for 70+ years. I did try to rewrite parts of it that needed to be more objective, and I can focus more on putting it into my own words even greater, but I do not think copyright is a problem here. Let me know? Thanks. Uprisingengineer (talk) 13:05, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

Oh sorry for the mistake! It's okay to copy in that case, as long as you add the required attribution. This can by done by using the template {{PD-notice}} like I did here.— Diannaa (talk) 13:31, 1 June 2021 (UTC)

I believe that you have picked the wrong Koblenz for all your edits based on the book "The Great French Revolution, 1789-1793".
