I've warned him before about using talk pages as a forum. Dougweller ( talk) 21:02, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Sorry, got side-tracked, I've started it. Travelling most of tomorrow though. Bed now. Dougweller ( talk) 21:13, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
Please do not add to my workload by changing the article in ways not specified at Talk:Max Weber/GA1. Let's get the article to GA level before making significant changes in meaning and interpretation. Binksternet ( talk) 15:11, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi Eb.hoop, stop making that many changes [1] in one single edit. Next time you do this, I will revert it alltogether. -- Túrelio ( talk) 06:36, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

For your fine contributions in Economic History. Nice job! LK ( talk) 04:17, 18 July 2011 (UTC) |
Thanks, but if Gould is used, he should be cited as a source for the parts of the article where he is used, surely? Dougweller ( talk) 06:19, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Cadaver Synod, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bulgarian ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You are doing good work revising the article and adding to the information on J. Willard Gibbs. I have started translating more of the article into French, including some of your edits. Dirac66 ( talk) 03:52, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
Your comment that there was no significant Anglo-Irish emigration to the Americas is only partially true and only in semantic terms. The majority of early Irish emigrants were Protestant Irish, mostly Episcopalian. They were not then known as Anglo-Irish but were known as Irish or in later years when poor Catholic Irish started arriving as Protestant Irish. The later Catholic and Presbyterian (Scots-Irish) Irish emigration caused by the Famine eventually evened up the numbers but in the early years of the USA an Irish American was nearly always a Protestant who would have been known in later years as Anglo-Irish in Ireland.

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Gibbs-US-stamp.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. ww2censor ( talk) 04:14, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I was quite impressed by the Gibbs article as a GA candidate, but the stamp controversy will kill its chances unless the controversy gets resolved. As I stated on the discussion page, I can easily split off the section into a philatelic stub article. I saved off the image, just in case they vote to delete. The way certain administrators seem to be interpreting Wikipedia copyright policy on stamps, it would seem that they believe that stamps can only be displayed on purely philatelic articles, which I don't think was the intention.

Hi. Good luck with the GA nomination. I see that the reviewer is unhappy with the inclusion of reference 43. Just in case you don't know why, the problem is that the "Encyclopedia of Human Thermodynamics" is a package containing both legitimate thermodynamics with much nonsense about human behavior being governed by thermodynamic-like concepts. The chief author (Libb Thims) was barred from Wikipedia about 2007 for persistently writing whole articles about nonsense topics in his "human thermodynamics", plus defending them from sockpuppet accounts such as "Sadi Carnot" which is against the rules. He then started his own website, but the Wikipedia thermodynamics community would rather eliminate references even to the legitimate pages such as the one you found, in order to reduce the number of Wiki readers finding the nonsense pages. For more details on this controversy, follow the links from User:Libb Thims or User:Sadi Carnot. Dirac66 ( talk) 22:00, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
I see that the article on Gibbs is now officially a GA. My congratulations to the principal author. Dirac66 ( talk) 20:32, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
I'll second that congratulations! I would have wanted to be the reviewer, but I felt that I was too involved with the stamp image issue to be an unbiased judge. Stigmatella aurantiaca ( talk) 22:12, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for going out of your way to help! I know how museums can make photography difficult; I had a similar experience in the British Museum. Because there's no image of the stela at Wikimedia Commons right now, I think you might as well upload what you have, if the stela is recognizable in it.
For some reason the PDF link you gave doesn't seem to work for me, though other good images of the stela are available on the museum's website. The part I want for my immediate purposes (a lead image for ancient Egyptian deities) is the lunette with the sun disk at the top, and the disk is definitely a relief, albeit a shallow one. So I think it's just three-dimensional enough to fall afoul of the rules. Fortunately I can use some other image for the same purpose, just not one that seems quite as fitting. A.

Badass. writing on Gibbs and on econ theory. You can do better than the typical self-publishers here. TCO ( talk) 04:16, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello. I saw your recent contribution on talk and I encourage you to participate in editing this article and the Austrian School article. For starters it would be good to expand the criticisms and state them in more detail. Unfortunately, as you will see, the statement of ABCT itself is confused and includes incorrect statements and needs a lot of work. Come join us! SPECIFICO 04:21, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello again. Thanks for your knowledgeable comments on Ludwig von Mises. I hope you'll join us in working on his article and the group of articles about his self-appointed intellectual guardians at the Mises Institute, Rothbard, and related topics. SPECIFICO talk 05:14, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
An article that you have been involved in editing, Bank rate, has been proposed for a merge with another article. If you are interested in the merge discussion, please participate by going here, and adding your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. greenrd ( talk) 17:03, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
Hi smart guy. Still think it is a shame on Gibbs. Really I think the thing is already better than featured. Hope I did not hurt you by liking it (I'm a pariah).
In any case, can you please review and fix " Fluorine". If it's too long, just hit a specific section (Fluorochemical Industry could use a person).-TCO — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.127.137.171 ( talk) 14:37, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Could you look at Talk:Gibbs' phase rule? The question is whether the article title should be Gibbs' phase rule, Gibbs's phase rule, Gibbs phase rule, or just Phase rule. I would welcome your opinion. Dirac66 ( talk) 02:06, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
Congratulations to the principal author - I see on the FA nomination page that the Gibbs article has been "promoted". And we only missed Gibbs' 175th birthday by a few days. Dirac66 ( talk) 00:14, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
Just a quick note to congratulate you on the promotion of Josiah Willard Gibbs to FA status recently. If you would like to see this (or any other FA you may have helped to write) appear as "Today's featured article" soon, please nominate it at the requests page; if you'd like to see an FA on a particular date in the next year or so, please add it to the "pending" list. In the absence of a request, the article may end up being picked at any time (although with 1,310 articles in Category:Featured articles that have not appeared on the main page at present, there's no telling how long – or short! – the wait might be). If you'd got any TFA-related questions or problems, please let me know. Bencherlite Talk 09:46, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your excellent, long-term efforts on the Josiah Willard Gibbs article. Diligent research and editing. Nickknack00 ( talk) 19:17, 27 February 2014 (UTC) |
Hi Eb.hoop, I wondered if you could date this photo of JW Gibbs? It looks to be from the same years as the photo you posted from 1855, but this site dates it to c. 1840. Nickknack00 ( talk) 01:53, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
