China Export Logo

In the article Made in China, I had deleted the China Export logo because there is none explaination in the article for this comparison. What is the reason the put this comparison here without comment just a picture ? China Export is a brand and not linked with the exportation of China. So no reason to put it here. Moreover, it's now a wellknown hoax for several years. Put the logo on wikipedia just continuing the hoax to live. Remember you have to check the reference before publish on wikipedia. hoax reference - in French https://www.nouvelobs.com/rue89/rue89-economie/20090418.RUE9758/le-faux-logo-ce-chinois-des-abus-mais-pas-de-complot.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ionbeam (talk • contribs) 08:54, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Plantsurfer. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Xenon have been undone because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Plantsurfer 20:18, 30 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello Plantsurfer. There was no reasons for undoning my edit, as xenon arc lamps aren't used in automotive HID headlights. The technology that used in automotive HID headlights, are metal halide lamps, with the xenon only used as a starting gas and the initial light when the lamp didn't had warm up yet. After reaching operating temperature, All of the light produced by mercury and metal halides and the xenon don't play role anymore in light production. The term "Xenon" is often used as a generic name for automotive HID lights, like "LED" is for LED backlit LCD displays and "Circline" is for circular fluorescent lamps, so that the mention of automotive HID headlight in this article is false and it have no room for it in this article. זור987 (talk) 09:43, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, but there are several cars using the xenon arc lights. de:Xenonlicht. You can buy the D2S xenon lamps. If they would not be used they would not be in the shops. --Stone (talk) 21:06, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Xenon, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Plantsurfer 21:24, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

I undid your deletion of the section "List of streetlight manufacturers and fixtures" on the page History of street lighting in the United States as it was completely relevant to the page. Can you please explain your reasoning behind your comment "Wikipedia isn't a lighting community website or a lighting fans website. The content I removed isn't encyclopedic content but a fan content." complete with references that explain your reasoning? Thanks. HugeMackerel 00:39, 7 July 2019 (EST)

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. This list of street lighting fixtures, isn't an encyclopedic information, but a technical/fan made info, and its place is in lighting fandoms and lighting fan websites such as lighting-gallery.net. Most non-America people won't see this info helpful. Also: This list isn't part of the history of streetlighting in the United States. People don't needs to receives information about the American lighting manufacturers and the American lanterns through Wikipedia. If they want, so they find this information in online lighting communities like lighting-gallery.net. זור987 (talk) 09:39, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

The street lights are meant to educate anyone, not just lighting fans. PumpkinCat1223 (talk) 12:56, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Aren't the three pictures of streetlights demonstrating the type of lamps, are enough to educate. At the Hebrew Wikipedia, there was a controversy between admins about if the lists of digital television adapters models at the article of הוט and Yes הטלוויזיה בלוויין, are encyclopedic or technical information, and it was decided to delete these lists. The lists of lantern models in this article (Include picture of lanterns), seems to be a similar controversy. זור987 (talk) 13:20, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Not the American Wikipedia?

This is the English Wikipedia. It is also the American Wikipedia read by and edited by Wikipedians resident in America and Canada. There is no separate Wikipedia for America.

It is totally unnecessary to identify every illustration or subject in a broad coverage article as solely applying to America. This is a world wide encyclopaedia. 86.146.209.237 (talk) 13:42, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

I understand, but what about foreign Wikipedians that wants to get relevant information that isn't available in their local Wikipedias? זור987 (talk) 15:26, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

I very much doubt that they will want the depth of detail that you are attempting to provide. 86.146.209.237 (talk) 16:08, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

"Invented by Wikipedia"

Re: this edit: I see you've done it again, falsely claiming that something was "invented by Wikipedia" as a reason for deleting it, when a quick Google search shows that the term is in use, it is found in reliable sources, and it was not "invented by Wikipedia". It doesn't matter that you feel the term is "wrong". Whether the term is "wrong" is not even relevant. The term is in use, and so we will cover it. Readers searching for "ceramic discharge metal halide" or "CDM lamp" because they encountered the name in a book, or a scientific journal article, or on a vendor's website will find the correct article, and will find the term they are looking for prominently in the lede. We are an encyclopedia. This is what we do. We don't refuse to cover something because it is "wrong".--Srleffler (talk) 05:43, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

In talk:ceramic metal-halide lamp, there were users that said that they never heard the term Ceramic discharge metal halide lamp but only the current term, and that the "discharge" in the name is wrong. It is also possible that the said source that using the term ceramic discharge metal halide lamp, copied it from the English wikipedia. זור987 (talk) 07:17, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

The book was published in 2003, well before the Wikipedia article. Individual users never having heard the term is irrelevant. The term is documented and in use. Someone's opinion that the term is "wrong" is irrelevant. The term is documented, and in use. We don't prescribe correct usage. We document what is.--Srleffler (talk) 17:43, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Polar night has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. My edit was made in good faith, and boldly editing is not vandalism, so do not revert a good faith edit with an edit summary stating you are reverting vandalism. interstatefive  15:16, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

White nights

FYI: The Sun is a celestial object, and its motion is an astronomical subject. Paradoctor (talk) 19:28, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

But phenomenons like midnight-sun and polar night and white nights, aren't considered astronomical events as they occurs here on Earth and not in space. זור987 (talk) 07:37, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

Why only in the UK this phenomenon would occur and in other countries not. There are other countries that lots of people watching the same programs, and this phenomenon either occurs but have no name in the countries or not. זור987 (talk) 09:33, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Irrelevant whether it happens in Israel or not, it happens in the UK and is well documented. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 09:39, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

And even if this phenomenon actually occurs and is unique to the UK, it shouldn't be mentioned in article about TV broadcasts, as it may be looked as a trivia for non UK members reading the articles. זור987 (talk) 09:40, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Do you have any evidence that it doesn't happen in other countries? Do you even have any evidence it doesn't happen in Israel, maybe it does and you are just ignorant of it? Murgatroyd49 (talk) 09:43, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

One friend of mine said me once, that similar phenomenon occurs in Israel as well, but it is ignored completely. זור987 (talk) 09:45, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Editorializing

By now, you should know better than to add unsourced personal commentary to articles, as you did to light-emitting diode. I have reverted you. Take care. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:15, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

The cites appearing earlier in the "Blue LED" subsection. זור987 (talk) 20:18, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

You are adding personal analysis that does not appear in sources. Furthermore, your use of phrases like "in spite of" violate WP:NPOV and WP:SYNTH. We just state facts as the sources state them, and as far as I can tell, no source cited states what you wrote. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:21, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

This isn't my personal analysis, but a fact. But you are right that it has been written in a tone not suitable for an encyclopedia. It is important that people would know that the three Japanese scientists that won the Nobel prize in Physics aren't the actual inventors of the blue LEDs (The credit in which they were awarded). זור987 (talk) 20:27, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Those Japanese scientists invented the first efficient gallium nitride blue LED, and therefore the first commercially viable blue LED due to being bright enough. Nobody disputes that a blue LED was invented (and patented) previously at Stanford. That is already stated earlier in the section. A statement synthesized from those two facts violates WP:SYN and doesn't need to be stated; readers can draw their own conclusions from reading the section. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:03, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Adamstom.97. I noticed that you recently removed content from Star Wars: The Bad Batch without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Do not remove the episode table from a television series article. If you are new to editing television articles then perhaps you should have a read of MOS:TV before making such major edits like this. adamstom97 (talk) 06:38, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

I explained in the edit summery that it is "Too much in depth information about each episode. Wikipdeia is an encyclopedia, not a fandom". Probably I wasn't so clear in the edit summery, but the reason why I removed this content is because it is too much detailed in depth information about each episode and that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a fandom. I hope that I'm clear now. זור987 (talk) 06:46, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

That is not a valid reasoning for removing the episode tables from a television article. I hope that is clear also. - adamstom97 (talk) 06:48, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

The episode table contains detailed in depth information of each episode of the series. This is an information that its place is at a fandom, not an encyclopedia. זור987 (talk) 06:54, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

No, this is information that is expected for every television series on Wikipedia. Please read MOS:TV and review featured articles at WP:TV to familiarise yourself with the way things are done here. - adamstom97 (talk) 06:55, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

Don't remove "citation needed" tags from uncited statements without providing a citation, as you did at Solar eclipses on the Moon. As you probably know, considering how long you have been contributing to Wikipedia, policy is that article content should be provided with references to reliable sources; the the fact that someone who has chosen to create a Wikipedia account thinks something is "a truth" is not a reliable source. JBW (talk) 20:23, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

I wrote a reason for the removal. The tag was after a statement that is a truth that most people know. זור987 (talk) 04:17, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

If you are going to make absurd claims such as that "most people know" that "the limit of the view of [the earth from the moon] during librations is about eight degrees within the near side" then there's probably no point in trying to clarify things. However, there's probably a limit to how often you can keep going on like this without being blocked from editing by an administrator. JBW (talk) 16:05, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
