User talk:Owen1983

Welcome to Doomsday, Owen! It sounds like you have ideas for France: the 6th Republic. Are you planning on developing them farther? Is this a matter of the Southern Territories changing their name, or has some new community in metropolitan France emerged from the devastation? Benkarnell 22:16, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

I plan to develop this and considering French troops were stationed in africa countries such as Algeria survived and France survived notably becuse President Miterand signed a Non agression pact with the USSR in 1982 Owen1983 9 March 24:42 GMT


 * OK, sounds reasonable. A couple of things:
 * (1) Please read the Editorial guidelines for the 1983 project. Most important among them is to not override any previous work.
 * (2) Please leave a comment at Talk:1983: Doomsday to discuss the new country.
 * (3) Based on your edit at World Country Profiles (1983: Doomsday), it looks almost as though you're planning to change what's previously been written about France's overseas departements. Keep in mind that this material is already an accepted part of the timeline and shouldn't be changed without discussing it first.  A number of other pages are written based on what's already been established about French Polynesia and Guyana.
 * (4) I'm not sure about the non-agression pact. Was that real?  If it wasn't, it shouldn't be added, since it represents another POD and would affect other events leading up to the 1983 war.  It's certainly possible that a survivor government signed such a pact with a Soviet bloc state after the war.  We've never really sorted out Corsica, for example, or any mainland bits of France that could have survived.

I suggest discussing your plans with the group before adding too much. As the group grows, keeping it all organized gets harder but more important. The worst thing would be to put a ton of work into something that ends up getting deleted or ignored because it goes against earlier work. Benkarnell 03:03, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

New TL
http://althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline_(Evil_Empire) Comments and suggestions appreciated MC Prank 17:44, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

what we need is asuggestion page
rhis is were editors can suggest topics were users can vote yes or no this woul avoid editorial conflict Owen1983 10 March 12:53PM GMT


 * Maybe. Talk:1983: Doomsday serves that purpose, more or less.  Benkarnell 15:54, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Just to point out...
Since I'm not sure if you will see my comments on the Talk:Timeline (1983: Doomsday), I would just like to point out that your to do list has been done: The message you responded to was over a year old, be more careful next time when reading a talk page. Mitro 15:44, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Overview Timeline (1983: Doomsday)
 * India (1983: Doomsday)
 * World Country Profiles (1983: Doomsday)
 * South American Confederation (1983: Doomsday)

Virginian Empire
Since I am not the author of the article and I specifically said on said article's talk page that I am not interested on working on it, I am not sure why you are informing me about this. That being said, good luck with whatever it is you are planning to do with the article but do not contact me about it. Mitro 20:24, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Naming Rules
Owen -- remember that you need to have the name of the timeline in parenthesis after any page you create. Thus, LoN World Factbook needed to have (1983: Doomsday) after it. I have corrected the error. Please take care that it doesn't happen in the future.

Thanks. Louisiannan 21:38, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

USSR Victorious
There is no way JFK can succeed McArthur after losing the election to him a year before. That is not how American government works. McArthur's VP would succeed him and I highly doubt his VP would be his opponent in the last election. Mitro 15:37, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for this info i will change it


 * You seem to be ingnoring your talk page so I will say this again. There is no way JFK could succeed McArthur.  JFK was not his VP.  JFK ran against him in the last election and lost.  If McArthur resigned he would be replaced by his VP, which would not be JFK.  That is how the American system of succession works.  If President Obama resigned today he would not be replaced by his opponent McCain, he would be replaced by his VP Biden.
 * Please stop adding those edits about JFK succeeding McCarthur if he resigns. It is completely implausible.  Mitro 15:40, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry to be blunt but your recent edit was ridiculous. McArthur was elected in 1960, the year the OTL US had a presidential election. THE US WOULD NOT HAVE ANOTHER PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION ONE A YEAR LATER! Please do some research before making edits to this page. If you continue to make such unconstructive edits to that article I will take necessary actions. Mitro 16:03, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

thanks Mitro --Owen1983 19:21, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

Explain
Why do you keep editing Mancunia? It's obsolete which basically means that we're too kind to throw it away, ie deleting it. I'm not saying its not allowed, but that your work now has no pertinence to the TL. Sorry, Mr.Xeight 23:23, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

as Manchester was nuked 26 years ago I have thaught that towns which were apart of tho old county of greater Manchester may have survived and faced with hardship may have joined other towns its logicoal thet would take Manchesters historic name--Owen1983 23:47, November 16, 2009 (UTC)
 * "Greater Manchuria" would not survive. They would be too close to the blast radius that they would be extensively damaged and be abandoned.  The populace would either die, find their way to an Ireland/CA refugee camp or the few lucky ones would catch a boat to New Britain.  Mitro 00:08, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry, Owen, a consensus has already been made. If you'd like to make a spinoff in which a "Greater Mancunia" is a flourishing nation, then I personally see no problem; however, if you continue to edit the obsolete page we have on Manchester, you are simply wasting your time. Mr.Xeight 00:33, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Agreed
I will make a spinoff nation thanks Mr.Xeight --Owen1983 12:15, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Making storyline decisions on articles you didn't create
Owen, I'm undoing your announcement on the WCRB headlines page re: Portland. (I'll roll with it, but my way). If you want to make changes like that on pages that I or anyone else created, that you didn't create or have a say in, please discuss it first on the talk page for that article.--BrianD 15:07, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Edits
Editing articles with the sole purpose of adding spelling errors to them is by no means constructive and neither were your edits to the Guyana and Argentina articles (with the latter I'm even inclined to call it vandalism). Could you please refrain from such edits in the future? --Karsten&#160;vK (talk) 19:45, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Be fair kirsten English is not my First Language--Owen1983 21:21, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Can somone help me
I have been blocked fo no reason

YOU were blocked for severel reasons
1 vandelism 2 inserting nonsence into pages Masquerading as another user you should think yourself lucky that you were blocked for a month and not a year or or life what i suggest you do is learn from your mistakes and apply them to become a better person --Chip2008 02:04, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Thankyou
Thankyou--Owen1983 02:36, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Did you actually mean to impersonate XiReney? Benkarnell 03:42, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

i sent him a mesage but I forgot to sign my name
so i went back to correct my mistake but Kirsten thaght I was inpersonatein hime but i wasnt and she said i have been making unproductive edits becus i mad a few spelling mistake and I have been blocked and i didnt do anything --Owen1983 11:52, November 19, 2009 (UTC)


 * Firstly spelling errors had absolutely nothing to do with the block, which was in fact issued for the following reasons:
 * Messing up the formatting of the Falkland Islands article.
 * Removing the proposal tag from the Guyana article which, if you had bothered to read the discussion on which, was in no position to be canonised.
 * Vandalising the Argentina article by tagging this long standing canon article with the obsolete template.
 * Pointlessly inserting the stub template on several pages that already had the stub template on them.
 * More seriously: Continuing with this after having been asked to cease this activity.
 * I think all of this together would have only lead to a second warning, or at worst, a one day block. It is the perceived impersonation shown here that formed the bulk of the reasoning behind the block. Since I now suppose this interpretation was an error on my behalf, the one day worst-case-scenario has passed, and Ben himself has objected to the block, I will lift the block after posting this message. My apologies for the erroneous judgement and once again a request to please don't make edits of the kind listed in the summary above any-more. --Karsten&#160;vK (talk) 12:44, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

THANKS KIRSTEN --Owen1983 19:06, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

Iowa
Iowa was not deleted: Republic of Iowa (1983: Doomsday)

You probably just spelled it wrong. Mitro 05:33, November 23, 2009 (UTC)

thanks Mat
later buddy

Concerning Recent Events
I recommend next time Owen that you do not get involved in situations like these. Due to your ignorance of the situation you caused issues that could have been avoided. Next time just contact an admin like myself and leave it at that. It was not necessary for you to start telling editors what to do or make statements about them that were untrue.

And once again please don't call me "Mat." I have never asked anyone to call me that. I would appreciate if you would refer to me as "Mitro." Mitro 23:01, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

thanks mitro --Owen1983 01:04, December 7, 2009 (UTC)

Final Warning
Owen, I investigated your report of vandalism. First off the anon did not remove an image from as you reported. What he did was add a link to a new article he was proposing, and you removed it for no reason and then lied about your reason. This is your last warning Owen, do something like this again and I will block you from editing for 3 days. Mitro 22:01, December 9, 2009 (UTC)

wrong OFL
Owen, why did you create this article, especially given that it totally contradicted what was already in the sports by country and in the ANZC articles? Talk pages are the place to discuss proposals like this. And, it showed a total disregard for not only what I did in the ANZC and the sports by country pages, but also for the proposal Jnjaycpa is working on. --BrianD 15:44, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

I thaught it was Australian not American --Owen1983 18:16, December 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * Even so, it was clearly listed as an American football league in the item, and there is already a soccer league in the ANZC in this timeline, the A-League. --BrianD 19:10, December 21, 2009 (UTC)

Soviet defeat
Soviet defeat is already a featured ATL, did you not see the big template on top of the portal page? Mitro 02:10, December 22, 2009 (UTC)

Redoing the infobox
I changed the title of my article and deleted the infobox you put in. Would you be able to put the infobox back in???

Verence71 10:15, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

sure

Unity League
Why did you remake a page on the Unity League, but then talk about Madagascar and the Comoros Islands? Mr.Xeight 17:33, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

Madagascer and a small part of madagascer consist of the UL after DD madagascer escaped the trauma at griped africa but they had a problem of pirate raids from the mainland so the UL came about BTW I read your post about the UL membersip of the Lon I want to say thanks for taking an interest in my article and I hope you have a great new year --Owen1983 13:49, December 29, 2009 (UTC)
 * Owen, the comment made by Mr. X was written on June 4, 2009, did you not see the date? Then the Unity League was a unified government of Greece and Turkey.  That version of the UL was rejected from the 1983: Doomsday canon and later deleted upon request by Mr. X.  Furthermore there already is an article on Madagascar: Madagascar (1983: Doomsday).  It is relatively empty but it still exists.  Now, however, you have resurrected a deleted page and have used it to describe a nation that already has an article in the TL.  Mitro 13:59, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

TSPTF
No actually it won't, and I request you stay out of it, regardless of how you consider your relationship to the admins of this wiki. I asked Louis for his opinion, not you. Mitro 16:47, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Louis gave you an answer and i only posted a fallow up the reason I did is i viewed this situation as a delicate matter which need as much input as possible if you request that I stay out of this thats ok but not for this situation becise any rash decisions will damage the credibility of the TSPTF  --Owen1983 17:22, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
 * Owen, please. Even Louis has asked you to stay out of it.  We are handling this situation, we do not need your input.  Mitro 17:31, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

After discussion among the administrators, we have decided to decline your application to join the TSPTF. We currently have enough members to patrol the wiki and are not interested in expanding at the moment. We appreciate your efforts in helping fight vandalism and you are welcome to try again later. Mitro 17:16, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

Really?
Owen, did you really create the Soviet Defeat Alternate-History? From the history of the page it says Buk5 created it. Mr.Xeight 00:45, January 8, 2010 (UTC)
