Additions that have been challenged, and that lack both wp articles and appropriate refs, should not be added back to the article (as Night of the Big Wind did), per both wp:LISTPEOPLE and wp:CHALLENGED, without an appropriate inline citation or appropriate refs.--Epeefleche (talk) 04:13, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
If you had done your homework, you could have seen that the skaters I re-added, all had won medeals on major tournaments. And then they qualify on the same guidelines that you used to remove them. Night of the Big Windtalk05:36, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
Please see -- which I have already pointed you to -- wp:LISTPEOPLE, wp:CHALLENGED, and wp:BURDEN. Red-linked names, that lack appropriate refs, which have been removed should not be restored -- unless you write an article turning it into a bluelink, or supply appropriate inline refs. Please also see wp:CHALLENGED, which also speak as to your obligation if you are restoring uncited material that has been removed or otherwise challenged. To the point, see wp:BURDEN.
I had removed the red-linked, uncited name. Citing wp:LISTPEOPLE. You restored it as a redlinked, uncited name. That was not appropriate, per the foregoing. Thanks.--Epeefleche (talk) 05:44, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
My advice is to look first at the Dutch version of this article. If the skater has no article there, it is hopeless for him/her. If there is an article, you can request atranslation of it. Night of the Big Windtalk05:48, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
Umm -- I just requested that you not violate -- as you have here -- wp:LISTPEOPLE and wp:CHALLENGED, all as part of a pattern of following me around the Project, and without good cause. Clearly, your violations of wp:LISTPEOPLE and wp:CHALLENGED reflect lack of good cause, and the fact that they come as part of a pattern of following makes them especially disruptive.--Epeefleche (talk) 06:08, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
