Article Licensing
editHi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Sounds OK by me. I added the text to my user page. user:Jsc1973
Narses
editHi there-
I notice you have a link to Narses on your main user page. That page was getting a bit cluttered with bios of multiple people, and not all links going to it were correct. I deleted all content on the page not related to the most famous Narses (the eunuch general who conquered Italy for Justinian) and moved links to the others to Narses (disambiguation). Just thought I'd let you know in case you need to change your link! --Jfruh 18:41, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Thanks!!
editDear Jsc! Thanks for defending the Pryor and Arguello articles I originated. The Arguello article was my fifth article here, back then, I thought I could write like if it was Ring Magazine! lol...so I admit I had to do major there recently. The Pryor article's POV nomination was out of left field by the person who nominated it!!! By then I was a little more seasoned and knew the NPOV rules. Kinda fnny how mostly everyone saw Pryor as bad and Arguello as good then and things have kinda turned around in their lives...
Thanks also for helping with some articles I originated such as Lucia Rijker..what do you think about her upcoming bout with Martin/ I don't know personally, Martin was made look bad by Laila.
If you; like me, enjoy boxing since you were a kid you might want to check Boxing in the 1980s, which I also originated, as well as the article on the Pryor versus Arguello fights, another of my originals, hehe. Also, Wilfredo Gomez and Wilfred Benitez, among others.
TThanks so much and God bless you!
Sincerely yours, Antonio Wilfredo Gomez had the punch of gold Martin
I think the person who challenged the NPOV of the Pryor and Arguello articles didn't know all the facts about Panama Lewis and the black bottle incident. It's a major part of boxing history and absolutely has to be in the articles about the principals in that fight.
Looks like Rijker and Martin isn't going to come off, which doesn't surprise me. They should have fought seven years ago, today Sumya Anani would beat the tar out of either one of them, which is why neither of them will go near her. Christy tried that in her prime, we saw what happened.
Jfruh--No problem about the Narses article. user:Jsc1973
Precession and the "north star"
editHi there! I noticed you added some interesting information to Thuban about when it was closest to the celestial north pole. Would you consider using your software to create a list of north stars? I think it would be a valuable and interesting contribution. If you ignore the proper motion of the stars involved, then you should have a cyclic sequence of north stars with a period of 25800 years or so. --Doradus 13:10, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
When I have the time, I'll do that. The SkyChart III software I used does take proper motion into account, but for the most part, things are about as you'd expect them to be for the next 25,000 years or so. In the meantime, I ran more star charts on Thuban and found out when it would again be very near the pole. user:Jsc1973 02:13, 5 April 2006
Ivory Coast move
editSince you participated in previous discussions on Ivory Coast, you might be interested in the requested move at Talk:Côte_d'Ivoire#...Requested_move. — AjaxSmack 05:54, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
- I said what I had to say on that one. If we don't have to call Russia "Россия", and the Germans can call France "Frankreich", and the Mexicans can call us "Estados Unidos" and all of that is OK, then the English speakers of the world don't have to refer to Ivory Coast in pidgin French just because their government wants us to.

Rubin Carter
editJohn, I'm circling back around on an issue that appears on the Rubin Carter Discussion page. An anonymous user identifies the pistol that Carter had n London as an Arminius .32 - which was the type used in the murders. I have not, however, been able to find any other source/authority for this fact. I believe you added the original "Duff" information to te article, and I suspect your source was the Duff autobiography. Do you have any other information on this incident? Thanks - Dra1948 (talk) 20:42, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, to be honest I have no idea what is being referred to here. I think I was the original author of the Rubin Carter article, or at least the first one to make a significant contribution to it. But the information I put in the article made no reference to Carter purchasing a .32 in London and that fact that he may have done so is something I didn't know. Very little, if any, of what is in that article now is my work. It got hatcheted to death by people pushing their own agendas, and I washed my hands of the subject long ago.

Hundred Years War
editHello there.I see you are interested in the Hundred Years War and that both you and I recognize Henry VI as King of France.Regarding the Treaty of Troyes.You have to understand that Charles VII usurped legal authority from Charles VI and refused a Courts Summon to Paris.This is constructed as Lese-Majesty(Injury to the Soveriegn) or Treason to Charles VI whom was the King of France and the person whom Charles VII refused.He was found guilty by a legal summons in Paris or a lit-de justice.This renderd him legaly incapable of Succestion So Charles VII disinheritence was legal through the lit-de justice not the Treaty of Troyes.Now we have just proven that Charles VII was legaly dissinherited and legaly incapable of succestion so thus he has to right to be removed from the entire Dynastic succestion.Problem no.1 Gone.Problem no.2 was the Salic Law OR Law Sallica.Salic Law states that no women can succeded or a claim through a Women.However Salic Law had no contrevention or any attack on the Treaty of Troyes.This is proven in one of the Clauses that says Henry(Henry V) shall take Isebaue(Queen of France) and Charles VI as Father and Mother and unto Henry his son.This meant that Henry was Adopted Son so there was no contrevention of Salic Law.As the Succestion of thrones clearly says the Sons of the French King can inherit in the succestion.Henry was a son of Charles VI.Now we just proved there s no contrevention of Salic Law.Problem No.3 The French Aruement of Alienating the Throne to Foriegners and the arguement that Charles VI was mad when the Treaty was concluded.Here is a predescent to refute this.In terms expressly provided the realms of England and France must ratify this.In current jurisict theroy this was the safest way in which the laws of a country could be changed and inncorperated was by the power of the whole people and there soveriegn(collective or personal) and this ratification was indeed done:was that not the manner in which the power and authority of the Roman Republic tranferd to the Emperors in Antique Days.Armed with this awsome predescent this was in a way altering the fundemental law of succestion that Civilians could understand and defend.To butress further the legal binding force of the Treaty oaths were sought independently by the lords.One obvious example was the Duke of Burgundy.Anyone whom was in breach of these oaths were consderd traitoirs.Philips point of view at the Congrass of Arass however was to have his oath to the Treaty declared invalid.The only way he could break his oath was through a papal legate which he later recieved to break his oath from the treaty.
http://books.google.com/books?id=Qv9PlGCLy4YC&pg=PA235&dq=the+legality+of+the+treaty+of+troyes
P.S.Dont mind the de facto and de jure stuff.Both Henry VI and Charles VII Were de jure Kings of France snce they both claimed France not neccesairly meaning having a undispted claim.The main facts you should anknowledge is the actual de facto controll within France.De jure is nonscence in most casses and meanningless but de facto however is important.Henry VI was King of France from 1422-1453.Charles corination in 1429 only marked the beginning of the End and the English founded harder to link there kingship back to the treaty.

sandy koufax
editHappy 7 year anniversary of starting the article on Sandy Koufax. I was watching a re-run of House on Hulu, House mentioned him, naturally I came here and discovered you started the article 7 years ago today. Thank you.--Esprit15d • talk • contribs 03:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
- You're welcome. He was a little bit before my time, but he was a great pitcher. For about five years, he was probably as good as any pitcher that ever lived. Jsc1973 (talk) 18:30, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry for bothering you, but since I noticed in the past that you might be interested about the history of the Eastern Roman/Byzantine Empire, and I thought you might want to know that there is a request for renaming the article "History of the Eastern Roman Empire" to "History of the Byzantine Empire". However, there's no problem if you're not interested or if you're too busy to participate.

I don't want to be left citing Wikipedia, and your revision predates all other sources. This is for my paper at UCSC, so can you please give a source? Thanks, T3h 1337 b0y 22:24, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
- I wish I could remember. I wrote several articles on the early medieval Germanic rulers about 15 years ago and some of them were put here and some of them on my own website (www.athalawulf.com). I'm almost certain it was from a book that was written back in the 19th century, but I cannot for the life of me remember anything more than that. 2606:A000:89C6:9300:1D16:12FC:D97C:8EF3 (talk) 08:54, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
