Hi Zeimic,

Nice article at Seismometer, one question though? What does "universal reference frame" mean ? Theresa knott 15:29 22 May 2003 (UTC)

Hi Zeimic,

altering a copyrighted image doesn't remove the copyright of the original photographer. -- JeLuF 22:59 23 May 2003 (UTC)

Hey Zeizmic, just wondering what the copyright tag on Image:Seisstoneh.png should be - you've released other images into the public domain, but I was hesitant to tag this one because you didn't explicitly specify. You can just go ahead and tag it youself using Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. -Lommer | ^talk 09:57, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Liquefaction entry might better re-evaporate[edit]

I saw many comments on "liquefaction", including yours. User Untgss informed me, in some dander, that he wrote the article. This was in regard to a change by Vsmith , viz: "01:05, 7 Jan 2005 Vsmith (wikify and clarify a bit - remove flood geology pseudoscience that is duplicated on that page.)" (I had thanked Vsmith.) In short, the article was seemingly written mostly in order to place a link to "Creationism." See further comments of mine, if you like, on the talk page [1], under "Thanks". Ungtss is at [2] and cannot spell any better than he writes (pseudo?) science, I think; for example, for "exclusably" on his own page I believe he may mean "excusably". "unmedeival" probably means "un-medieval" (note order of "i" and "e" - I don't defend my hyphenation). Anyway, I do agree with your suggestion to cut up the liquefaction article. One might do better to rewrite the parts ab initio, because when you deal with an article on liquefaction by someone who refers only to rocks (not to gases), and indeed to the rocks, in turn, as an indirect road to the Rock of Ages, you deal with an article by a poorly informed person with an axe to grind. Their name is legion, and I wish it were cohort or maniple instead. (if I am obscure, please see [3] for legion, cohort, and maniple). Pdn 22:03, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Looks like it re-condensed at Soil Liquefaction. Ungtss did a copy & paste job which I helped undo. Now it has been a proper move. Thought you would like to know. Have fun with Ungt. :-) Vsmith 02:29, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Let's be perfectly clear, PdN. I wrote the article. i cited and quoted scholars on the topic, and no substantial errors have been found in the text since. the only substantial edits that have been made, in fact, have been the deletion of any link to flood geology. and we all know how horrifyingly damaging external links can be. as to your rather bizarre assertion that i created an article simply to link to something else (which not only claims to know my motives, but does so without substantial evidence to that effect or any conceivable motive for such a bizarrer course of action), i'm left with the question: does the topic exist? is it accurately described? if so (and i believe you'll find it is), your accusation is sheer nonsense. and in apparent recognition of your nonsense but hope of sounding superior, you resort to criticizing typos on my user page. carry on, sir. legion thanks you. Ungtss 03:14, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

For anyone following this, I think we have found satisfactory closure. Ungtss has his 'magazine' article under Soil liquefaction, with links to the other pages.--Zeizmic 12:46, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Water laser[edit]

Errr, did you mean for this to go in your user space? If you want to keep it, I'd copy it soon, as it's up for deletion. Friday (talk) 20:23, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks, I just saw this. Boy are they quick! I still think this would have been a great thing as a science discussion point. --Zeizmic 22:53, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You may well be right, but that sort of thing is specifically not what Wikipedia articles are for. I'm sure nobody would mind you having it on your user space, though. You could make a page called User:Zeizmic/Water laser or something similiar and copy the content there. Friday (talk) 23:09, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for my temporary insanity.:) I'll leave it hiding here for my fans, but the water laser actually exists. It is the pressure tube of the CANDU reactor. At the Darlington station, it was accidently tuned. The result was destroyed fuel bundles, and the internal stresses were so high that metal stampings were transferred from one plate to another. They detuned it by changing the pump from 5 vanes to 7, which reduced the input vibrations. However, it still hums along, causing long-term problems.--Zeizmic 14:52, 14 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Original research[edit]

I saw your note at Talk:Fault friction. Stuff on talk: pages should always be signed with ~~~~. Is what an automatic message? Even on talk pages you should provide Wikilinks. Where, pray, is slinky seismology cited except in Wikipedia clones or links that you have created?

Re: fault friction, fault mechanics, characteristic earthquakes, etc.

The reasons people seek to delete your articles are:

Their tone is far too conversational. Phrases such as this type of demonstration is best done before a crowd where you can bring up lots of volunteers (slinky seismology) and here’s where things become very interesting (fault friction) simply do not belong in encyclopedia articles
Apart from fault mechanics they lack any references to external sources and hence, whether they are or aren't, they seem to be …
original research which is forbidden here and is generally removed quickly by the thought police. The fact that very few other editors have touched your articles tends to confirm this view. More incoming links to your articles might help.

Address yourself to these matters and you will find that people are less deletionist about your work. -- RHaworth 13:08, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm a tad touchy about 'deletion kings'. Slinky seismology has been cited, but when I looked it was one citation copied lots (maybe it was even me!). I still come up #1 in Google! :) I'll patch up this last article and retire. This seems to be best left to drier people. --Zeizmic 14:07, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm back[edit]

I saw all the news and everything and have come back to help. I'll be strictly NPOV from now on with my best formal neutral tone. I'm still aiming my style to highschool for the main article, with lots of references for more detail. --Zeizmic 16:33, 14 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Legs[edit]

Hi Zeizmic. I noted on the Reference Deask you said you had a milder version of Restless Legs Syndrome. Is that related to that twitch some people (me included) get where their legs kick a lot, involuntarily, while they are trying to go to sleep? Proto t c 16:17, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The single big twitch that my wife always gets me with is a Hypnic jerk. I have 'continuous leg twitch' which can only be detected by all the stuff they tape onto you in a sleep test. --Zeizmic 21:19, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unhelpful comments on the reference desk[edit]

Some of your comments on the reference desk lately have been less than helpful. Granted, many of the questions are naïve and could have been answered by a simple search, but that still doesn't warrant sarcasm. Simply linking to the article suffices.

I try to follow the maxim, "If you can't say something helpful, don't say anything at all.", and I suggest you should, too. —Keenan Pepper 01:32, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ummm[edit]

I know how tempting it is to yell at some of the ridiculous questions posed at the WP:RD but, I try to remember back when I was that stupid. FACT OF LIFE: there is NO way that yelling at a particular questioner is going to in any way influence the next stupid questioner. Period. So, to retain our sanity and our congeniality we have decided to become influential and helpful (difficult as it is at times). We sense your frustration and your attempts to fix things but, there are more of them than you can imagine. So, Zeizmic, lets both of us try to be productive with our energy here at WP. If you have any ideas for me well, I'm receptive.

One of my (our) pet concerns is that the very newest newcomer doesn't have a clear roadmap as to how to come aboard. We (both you and we) have figured it out but I'd like for it to be less traumatic (hit or miss) for the next (kid, friend, grandchild, girlfriend, etc...) that we send here. Our Mainpage is more for the current users than for the first timer. Nothing wrong with that but there should be a welcoming for both.

Shoot, I don't know what started me preaching to you about all of this - I just started to ramble and was too lazy to delete. Anyway, I'm glad to meet you and hope to run into you again at the RD or wherever. Let me know If I can help out someplace or if you think I'm being an asshole someplace. ;-) hydnjo talk 06:52, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AoJatRD[edit]

Heyas. Cernen here, creator of offensive reference desk templates. I was thinking, I've noticed that you're one of several people among the "reference desk pseudo-staff" who seem to consider stupidity at the reference desk...abhorrent? I don't know if perhaps you'd be interested in joining the Association of Jerks at the Reference Desk or not, but if you would, that'd be kind of nifty, I suppose? I'm not calling you a jerk...I just don't have the creativitiy skills to come up with something cooler...aaanyways, the association has a page at Meta and if you want to sign up that's fine...not sure if you believe in associations or what not, but...aaaanyway...there you go?

Reference desk[edit]

Regarding your answer to "Why shouldn't ether or chloroform be used as a solvent for the titration of an ASA Tablet?"

If you're just going to blow off the question, please just don't leave any answer at all. The question asked was not obvioulsy a homework question. And 'try it and find out' is a pretty bad answer to many lab research questions if for no other reason than it wastes reagents (which are often purchased with taxpayer dollars).

Long story short - if you don't feel like answering questions that you think are stupid....do bother with the reference desk. It is the designated place on Wikipedia for stupid questions. ike9898 23:26, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Notes to self: Yes I have been cruel. And I feel sorry for those who have not had the benefit of a college education to recognize a first-year lab question. --Zeizmic 15:35, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can I ask you also to be more polite? There's no need to be incivil, thanks! Rx StrangeLove 06:00, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know, I kinda like Zeizmic's attitude. He's like the one grumpy old guy who scares off all the idiot newcomers. Although now that I think about it I don't know that Zeizmic's old, or male... Anyway the rest of us should just be more polite to contrast with him (her?). —Keenan Pepper 06:09, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ref Desk Addiction[edit]

Yes, I am addicted. I've tried to get off by removing all my bookmarks. I even write a lot of articles. But I can't help myself. In one of my alternate realities, I dream that I am an elder grumpy Dilbert (dream happens weekdays). I am surrounded by people too stupid to live. The only way I fend them off is by grunting. I also keep alive by making witty insults that they can't understand. It's a fine art, because you can't use big words. Nothing is worse than a stupid person who thinks he has been shown disrespect!

This makes me what I am. If I don't fend off the stupid people, if I make life easier for them, they come back more often, with more friends! The best way to repel them is to tell them to do a little work, like looking for an answer themselves. They hate that! --Zeizmic 23:56, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I find it is best to step away from RefDesk from say 2am to 7 am because we all need rest. That gives you a chance to check all the articles in WP:AFD and keep or delete articles needing it, or find lots of refs and do rewrites to save potentially good articles, and check your watchlist.Edison 15:38, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

HDR scepticism?[edit]

Hi Zeizmic, on the reference desk one of your answers implied a rather skeptical attitude towards hot dry rock geothermal energy. Why? On the face of it, it sounds quite plausible to this non-geologist. --Robert Merkel 13:45, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Expbolt.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Expbolt.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 16:05, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Reference desk response[edit]

I removed your unhelpful response and replaced it with one intended to be useful. I notice people have complained about your responses before. You may want to focus more on helpful answers. Friday (talk) 22:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I run about 80% useful and 20% useless. --Zeizmic 14:46, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if I was rude. There's a feeling among some that we should try to be sure the reference desk is a useful resource more than has been done in the past. I realize it was just humor, but your answer gave factually incorrect info, and it may not have been clear to the questioner (who was likely just playing games anyway). At any rate, can we at least give a good answer first and make sure the jokes are clearly identifiable as such? Friday (talk) 15:31, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, that was a perfectly good answer, as I just had a long conversation with my shrink. The combination of alcohol, nictotine and THC is causing a lot of his patients to go psychotic, and there is no real hope for them. --Zeizmic 18:37, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Errr, okay. But let's make sure our answers are accurate by using proper sources rather than something we heard someone say, eh? Friday (talk) 19:50, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Image:Charsand.png[edit]

A tag has been placed on Image:Charsand.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

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 (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Charsand.png|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.

Wikipedia: WikiProject Swimming[edit]

Hi there, Ive recently joined the WP:WikiProject Swimming team. Im committed to getting on top of the project. Since you have listed yourself as a participant i thought i'd let you know what i've done. Ive got a bot thats going through the relevant catagouries that apply to the project and tagging them with our banner. Ive done all the stub class articles and assessed them automaticlly, and im starting on the 3000 other articles that ive identified. So this will mean that we will have all the articles in the scope of the project together and we can start working on them. So if you have any spare time theres going to be thousands of articles that will need assessing. There are around 2000 articles Just in in stub class, and most of these will need the importance assessed. I think it's important we get all this assessing done, so we can start working on the articles.

Don't fell pressured to start assessing articles, i just thought that since theres going to be so many articles, you should know that theres heaps of work that needs to be done, ill be trying my best once my exams are finished. Remember many hands make light work.

Proposed deletion of Slinky seismology[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Slinky seismology, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
