Welcome to Wikipedia

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

You are welcome to continue editing without logging in, but many editors recommend that you create an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (192.31.106.34) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. Again, welcome!

Polarization

edit

Actually, the polarization article does define p and s polarization. It even has a diagram. It does not, on the other hand, define "plane of incidence", so ironically your edit was guilty of exactly the thing you were complaining about—using a technical term without defining it. I reverted to the explanation that used terms defined in the article. I'll take a look and see if I can make the definitions of p and s a little more obvious.--Srleffler 03:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

RE: Your responses to Conspiracy Theory show

edit

To the last person who said this is a discussion about the article only...this board is for discussing the show which the article is written about. If something changes with the show, it affects the article. By the way, we might want to mention how there are some behind the scenes things going on. Alex Jones said along with multiple other alternative media outlets that the Police State episode was only aired once even though it was scheduled to re-air two more times and pulled both times. It is because of pressure from our government and elites about the truth behind the Police State episode that they don't want it aired again. Also they are doing an episode on the BP Oil Spill, I heard Alex Jones mention that too who is in the episode as a consultant he said. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.31.106.34 (talk) 17:54, 3 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

this board is for discussing the show which the article is written about
Sorry, it's not. READ: WP:TPG. You will see Talk Pages are reserved for discussing specifically article content and ways to improve it. It's not for unrelated information about the article's subject. Meaning it's not for asking why TruTV pulled an episode, or rescheduled things, your personal opinions about the show. Take those topics to some other off-site discussion forum.
If something changes with the show, it affects the article.
Um, yeah it effects as far as an accurate air date which I at least try to keep on top of. Yes, dates change, it happens, I'm sure orbital mind control lasers had nothing to do with it.
It is because of pressure from our government and elites about the truth behind the Police State episode that they don't want it aired again.
Again thats your PERSONAL OPINION and your drawing conclusions that aren't proven. In case you didn't notice, several networks made abrupt changes to shows last month and this month because of the holidays. I edit other TV shows like Ghost Hunters, Ancient Aliens, Fact or Faked, even Hollywood Treasure and their schedules were all screwed up from what was on their official network pages.
I heard Alex Jones mention...

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Mach Loop has been reverted.
Your edit here to Mach Loop was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrnkmjxiEdY&feature=youtu.be) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.
