I am a teacher in California

I am trying to help them understand that Wikipedia is not a valid source for information. Most students don't quite get this, since pretty much everybody can update this Wiki. There are few scholars that update information or include sources. I was hoping to be able to show them that they can't actually trust all of their source for research on the internet.

Can you please let one thing go?

Thanks, Chris —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cp1955 (talk • contribs) 05:12, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Reverting of IGE article

You reverted changed made to the following article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IGE

The majority of this article is a copy&paste that was originally posted on mmobux.com at http://www.mmobux.com/articles/760/the-rise-and-fall-of-ige

Since Wikipedia states: "Do not copy text from other websites without a GFDL-compatible license. It will be deleted."

I just reinserted the first one, but I see what you meant and I corrected it here. I actually thought you were referring to the second and third edits in your edit summary, but accidentally reverted the first edit, too. Eh, it's all fixed now.

Wikipedia List of Notable Egyptologists

The ongoing editing of (and occasional tampering with) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Egyptologists has omitted or removed a number of notable Egyptologists who were originally listed and now contains the names of a number of individuals who are virtually unknown in the field. It might serve the readers of Wikipedia better to simply provide a link to a site such as the international directory of Egyptologists: http://www.iae.lmu.de/iae/ide/ide.htm

Professor Richard Wilkinson Editor, Directory of North American Egyptologists. http://www-oi.uchicago.edu/OI/DEPT/RA/ABZU/EGDIR_INTRO.HTML —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 23:27, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Since I know very little about the field, I will defer to you about if the link should be added. You are welcome to add it in to an external links section. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:55, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. It's difficult in that the list itself has problems and needs to be adjusted but a complete list would be just way too long. I'd be happy to help sort it out if you wish. Please feel free to email me at egypt@u.arizona.edu if you would like to work on it together. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 00:55, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Maybe the best way to take care of the problem (if you would want to use your wiki editing experience as I have none!) would be to simply put a statement under the current header paragraph that a complete list of Egyptologists can be found at http://www.iae.lmu.de/iae/ide/ide.htm then change the heading "Notable Egyptologists" to "Egyptologists in Wikipedia" and have the list with a short statement such as "The following individuals, or others, have added biographical summaries to Wikipedia: This would solve the problem of the glaring omissions as well as the questionable additions. RW —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 01:09, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I've made some changes to the article that might help clarify that the list is incomplete. Your wording suggestions are not quite the usual style, but I think I have added in wording that follows the spirit of what you are trying to say. A lot of the lists of people on Wikipedia are often incomplete because the general style of Wikipedia is to include only individuals with articles on Wikipedia. It cuts back on people adding vanity entries or not-yet-notable people. So I am sure that some notable Egyptologists are missing as nobody has yet to write an article about them.

Upon further reading, a link to the IAE was already at the bottom of the article, but I changed it to link directly to the IDE. As for editing Wikipedia, it's quite easy as you have already figured out how to leave comments. Editing an article is not that much different. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:59, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. It certainly helps to stress that the list is incomplete. The only problem that remains is that of the individuals listed as "notable Egyptologists" who are not Egyptologists - such as the RUGBY player, Michael Rhodes. I guess that comes down to whether Wikipedia style articles are accurate or not. If you don't want to clean up the list together I can certainly try redoing it. RW —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 15:10, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Ouch. That's bad. He's been in there since October 2007. He's gone now. I guess nobody noticed when he was added (it happens on lower profile articles like this one).

I checked everybody on the list on make sure their article stated that they were all Egyptologists, fixed a few links, sorted the list and so on. One thing that happened with the list clean up is that Abdul Latif al-Baghdadi ended up with a dead link (if you'll excuse the bad pun). I don't know the notability status of this individual. As I mentioned earlier, dead links (also known as "redlinks") are generally frowned upon in these types of lists as they are not helpful to the reader and tend to invite vanity entries. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 17:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Great- dropping the Rugby player is certainly a good start. So what would you like to do about the remaining ones who are not "Notable Egyptologists" - including the vanity entries and entries for people who are unheard of in the field (which together with all the notable omissions makes the list virtually useless as titled? Wouldn't it be simplest to solve that problem with at least a somewhat more accurate heading such as "Egyptologists with Entries in Wikipedia"? "Notable Egyptologists" is explicit that the individuals are notable (many of whom are not) and implicit that the list is complete (which it is not). Richard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 18:12, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Was there somebody in particular that should not be listed? All of the remaining entries have links to articles that state they are Egyptologists except for the one I mentioned above. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:21, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Not listed as "Notable Egyptologists"? - yes, several, as I said. Either the title should be changed or the list redone. Changing the title would be far easier. R. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 18:31, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I think we were crosstalking there. I thought you were saying that somebody currently in the list should not be in the list because they are not notable. I think what you're really saying that some Egyptologists who are notable are not in the list. Which is probably true, which is why I modified the lead the other day. I would not recommend altering the header to what you suggested because that is not the normal method of showing that the list is incomplete. As for adding to the list, that's fine if the Egyptologist has an article on Wikipedia or an outside source can be cited that they are indeed notable enough for inclusion, but just haven't been written about. If we just start adding in lists of names without providing a reason and citations for their inclusion, it is likely that it will be deleted. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:46, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I understand what you are saying here but it's actually not the omissions that are the main problem - there are really far too many qualified Egyptologists to list on the page - as may be seen in the directories such as the DNAE or the IAE Directory - The real problem is the accuracy of heading a list "Notable Egyptologists" when many obviously are not. RW —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 19:05, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I see. There is a set of procedures for articles to be deleted for lack of notability. See Wikipedia:Deletion policy or more specifically Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Since my knowledge about the notability (or lack there of) of the current people listed is not that great, I would not be comfortable proposing their deletion or deleting their entry from the list. You could create an account and propose deletion yourself, but since you are involved in the field of study, it might be seen as a conflict of interest. If you do decide to create an account, you might be interested in joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Ancient Egypt. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:57, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I followed your earlier advice and made a reasonable change. I simply changed "Notable Egyptologists" which, as I have tried to explain, was ridiculous given the list - to "Egyptologists". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 20:02, 8 April 2008 (UTC) The changes you made at the beginning of the article seem good to me and I think that the article should be fine as structured now. Thanks for working together to get it cleaned up. RW —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.244.60.76 (talk) 20:48, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Not a problem. Glad to be of assistance. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

How was it a "debate?"

"A corporate owned and sponsored attack on Barack Obama" seems much more truthful. If Disney News labeled it, "The Greatest Thing to Happen Since Sliced Bread" would we be expected to call it that? I thought encyclopedias -- and Wikipedia -- were about the truth, not the network spin.

Your message to me clearly indicates that you have a bias and your edits of "President Obama" and "the future President" is not a neutral point of view. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:50, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

The President thing was a stupid move on my part and I apologize. It was only after someone changed the truthful description of, "a corporate owned and sponsored attack on Barack Obama" back to ABC's PR term, "debate" and it was meant to show how absurd using words like "debate" or "President" are if they are not true. ABC/Disney News' forum was not a debate and I still say that term should be changed back, but I will leave it up to your discretion as an admin. Is Wikipedia being sponsored by Walt Disney? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.220.59.16 (talk) 08:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

You were the one who added corporate owned and sponsored attack which is not a neutral point of view. You made the President Obama change before it was reverted back, so your claims are not quite valid. As for your question, Wikipedia is not sponsored by anybody. See who owns Wikipedia. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:25, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Admin Coaching

Would you be able to coach me? Since I'm approaching 1000 edits, I'm considering an RfA.— Dædαlus^T@lk / Improve 07:08, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

If I could give a quick suggestion, you may want to take a look at User:Gonzo fan2007/Admin to help better understand all the technical abilities given to an admin and the pages that an admin uses.

Daedalus969, honestly I would recommend waiting until you get some more experience under your belt to go through WP:RFA. RFA is very demanding and many users have very high standards. Many users will not even consider a user who doesnt have more than 3000 edits and 3 months experience, with some users having even higher standards such as certain article writing experience (FAs, GAs, FLs, etc.) and experience in admin related areas. To give you an example, when i went for my my RFA, I had 5500 edits and 9 months of solid editing, and Gogo Dodo had over 10,000 edits and 8 months of solid editing when he went for his RFA. (I would also recommend reading through our RFA's for useful info).

All that said, I think you are definitely on the right track. Some suggestions would be to find an article and try and bring it up to GA/FA status, participate in XFD's discussions, give your opinion in discussions around Wikipedia and do what you are doing, just do it for a little longer so you get more experience (i.e. run into more experiences). And on a side note, Gogo Dodo is a great example of what to do here, whether he trains you or not you can learn a lot from just watching how certain admins act and what they do on the 'pedia. Good luck and keep up the good work.
Gogo Dodo, sorry for the long ramble on your talk page :-) « Gonzo fan2007 (talk ♦ contribs) 07:26, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

I actually have been participating in a few of the discussion areas like AfD, AN/I, etc. I was just trying to meet some of the criteria posted on some page regarding RfAs. I can't remember what page it is. Regarding time spent here, I've actually been here for awhile, I'd have to check my edit history to see when I really began.— Dædαlus^T@lk / Improve 07:34, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I think the biggie for some people is going to be the edit count and the lack of mainspace edits. But like I said, if you give User:Gonzo fan2007/Admin a good look over and click some of the links that should help a lot. Also, consider reading Wikipedia:Administrators' reading list, which will help a lot. Also, feel free to ask any questions to me or basically any admin, I know I would be glad to answer any. Also, it does help a lot to have a WP:GA, WP:FA, or WP:FL under your belt. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk ♦ contribs) 07:40, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice, I didn't really think I could do FAs and that stuff, at least not yet. Everything else you mentioned(XfDs, RC patrolling, WP:ANI, CSD tagging, etc.), I actively participate in. I patrol the RC with a script that allows me to rollback(I have the rights to do so too) the vandalish edit, and warn the user whether against vandalism or a test(*loves the Lupin script despite how buggy it is*). I think I have joined a few conversations in ANI, but I can't remember, I do know I have participated a bit in AN/I. Last but not least, I add tags where necesarry, especially for CSD, and AfD where applicall(spelling?).

Hi! I added the link under "external links" category. There should be no conflict as "external links" denote all 3rd party links to related sources.

While I understand your concern, I do not see how a simple article about stationery with no reference to stationery providing business and ventures can complete the picture. There is a thin line between understanding if something is meant to be for only advertising purposes or for simple information dissemination.

The article as it is does not have any practical references to stationery businesses. I think it is missing that aspect. I recommend that if not just this one particular link I mentioned, then we should add some more links perhaps, staples, officedepot etc... Adding value to the article. Awaiting...

Help

Hey Gogo, it's Dae. I am requesting help on the article Repo Man (1984 film) because another editor keeps adding this huge glaring list of trivia, which I'm sure violates WP:NOT. For a little history, the list was created by various anon IPs who were just passing through the article. Also, if you look at the article itself w/o the section, it looks great. The addition of the list just makes it look messy. I've suggested several times the editor Cowicide insert the text in the article body text, such as the plot, but it seems my suggestions go ignored. I would RfC, but last time I tried that I didn't even get a response until weeks after. Help would be much appreciated if you can find time in your schedual.

Hi Gogo, I want to set straight an untruth Daedalus has spoken of me when he says above, "I've suggested several times the editor Cowicide insert the text in the article body text, such as the plot, but it seems my suggestions go ignored." As you can see here I said, "I'll help move stuff or whatever is needed when I get some time soon. Regards..."

Also, Daedalus' accounting of the history of the article is absolutely untrue where he also says above, "For a little history, the list was created by various anon IPs who were just passing through the article."

In reality, there are close to 20 actual registered users who contributed to that "trivia" section in one way or another over the course of years. As seen in the history they are (to name most, not all) - (Unidyne, NapoliRoma‎, Oydman, Robert‎, TheQuandry‎, BlackAndy, Karlos the Jackal‎, ChuckyDarko, Osbojos, ChargersFan, PondScumEsq‎, Variable‎, MeltBanana, Acedian, Draconiszeta, Hoary‎, Grendelkhan, BerserkerBen‎, Trelvis‎, Davejenk1ns & Cowicide) This list is on top of the numerous "anon IPs" that Daedalus refers to.

As I'm sure you'll agree, I do NOT want to start any form of conversatoin with Daedalus here about this. I just want to set straight some untruths said about me and the situation in his statements above. I think the links and info I provided speak for themselves, and would like to finally just move on to bettering the Repo Man article. Cowicide (talk) 12:43, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Gogo, could you please reinforce to Daedalus what you said on his talk page above, specifically where you recommend to "stay away from each other until the issue is settled. Continued discussion on talk pages is not being productive". Daedalus is ignoring your advice and continues to post on my Talk Page. I've asked him repeatedly to only discuss the article with me and nothing more, but he continues to ignore my pleas and now he's ingnoring your advice as well. He is also continuing to address me with distracting personal issues on the actual talk page of the article as well here, here & here instead of focusing on the article issues. It would appear he's trying to bait me, when I'd rather just ignore him and work on the article. He's becoming very tiresome and a distraction from working on the article.

warning at User talk:Quickskins1992‎

Hi, I noticed that we both recently put warnings on this page, but I'm wondering if there was some confusion. You issued a seperate warning shortly after I did, apparently for an NPA at Bill Whicher. However, the only edits from that account were the vandalism to Censorship and another set of vandalisms to Mark Foley. So, while it seems a second warning was clearly warranted, I'm not sure it was the right warning. Did I overlook something perhaps, or should the NPA warning be changed to a level 2 vandalism warning? I'll be watching your page, so feel free to reply here, and thanks for your time. Doc Tropics 23:32, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

You didn't overlook anything or issue the wrong warning. My warning was for an attack page by the editor that I deleted. I usually issue the {{attack}} warning when I delete an attack page instead of the uw-vandalism* warnings. If they keep it up, I switch over to uw-create3 or uw-create4 warnings. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:23, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

New Project

Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.

If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 17:29, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Darren mccullagh

Dear Gogo Dodo,

i am writing to you on matter of the deletion of the "Darren McCullagh" article. I feel that this Wikipedia page was deleted unfairly and i was not given an oppertunitiy to plead my case. In my local town of Strabane the character of Darren Mccuallagh has historic significance. I feel that the speedy deletion of my article was unjust, although my Wikpedia contributions, which was also my first contribution, was not as detailed as one might hope, i feel that it was inconsiderate of one to delete my work without a proper consultation. However i understand that you are a very busy person who is often called upon to spend their free time dealing with inconsiderate people intent on misusing Wikpedia and its benfits, at the same time i assure you that i am ont one of those people and i have no intention except to inform the world of our local "rebel" if you give me the oppertuninty to edit the Darren McCullagh page i will make it my priority to correct my mistakes and make the Darren Mc Cuallagh page one which will benifit the Wikipedia Community. Even if you feel that there is no oppertunity to make my contribuiton fit for you website i ask that you allow me the oppertunity to recover my contribution.

Precautions for the future

Do you know anything about bots and or bot-making? Or if you don't, do you know anyone who does? The reason I ask, I'm just preparing for future events I would like a bot that will revert all edits made to my userpage if they are made by anyone who isn't me.

I wish full protection, as per Hdayejr's tireless harrassment. I've moved several of my pages into .js pages, meaning of course, which I'm sure you already know, only I and Admins can edit. I then transcluded the pages into my userpage. Meaning, with Full Protection, I can still edit my userpage, but vandals cannot.— Dædαlus^T@lk / Improve 00:10, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Ahh, but here is the thing. It would work, as currently, my userpage is a transclusion from a .js page. I edit the page that is transcluded, I never directly edit my userpage. So if it was fully protected, everything would work out. All I have to do is alter the .js page, which only I or an admin can alter.

My table

You deleted my table on the Deadliest Catch page...

I understand that color is not the only way to convey information, but words is also not the only way to convey information. The table I created displayed information neatly that everyone can read easily. The only issue with the chart was the white text, which should be changed to black or some other form of identification should be used. The chart presently used, while it displays the information, it is not presentable. If you are concerned about those who are color blind, look around, there is blue everywhere on Wiki. I would like to put the chart back up, but I obviously need your say in this. I am willing to edit it to fit the needs of Wiki, but I firmly believe my table (with some appropriate edits) should replace the current table. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RJEvans (talk • contribs) 02:51, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

mini survival kit

Hi,

You've made some substantial changes to the Mini survival kit page. I've offered a few comments on the talk page and am not certain that it is the correct place for them. [internal comments to the article]

You've offered some changes which seem very appropriated ie. removal of 'subjective comments' however I hold the opinion that once the topic of Mini Kits was created the discussion had already moved to the 'area' of ART as in the art of the kit or the form and function of the mini kit, or even the Art of the application of knowledge. Much of which become meritorious and significant when the space of the mini kit is limited to 12 cubic inches or less [for kits of the 'sardine can' type and size. Since the decisions would even differ in micro kits [where kits are the volume of a knife handle or a tube the size of a 2 AA maglight]

I do see the value in describing the use of items and alternate items in the kit for the encyclopedic discussion of the mini kit. Many items are carried forward from military kits into kits specifically designed for 'survival' [and even SERE and Military survival schools focus upon the Survival aspects in their training and less on the militaristic aspects] for example; what is a condom used for in a survival kit? For someone who does not know [visitor to a Wiki - encyclopedia page] it might be well to describe the uses 'waterproofing a rifle barrel' or for a person who is looking to make their own kit perhaps it is a more useful note to tell them the purpose could be better filled with a small plastic triple zip bag in their own kit 'water transport/storage/purification container' fulfilling additional applications.

Further many military kits omit the use of 'perishables' due to the storage and shelf life combined with inspection requirements. In which cases valuable space could be 'reclaimed' or even provided with supporting items, redundant backup items, and even multi use items to perform functions not covered with other kit components.

That may be enough for now. Thanks for 'listening', Chris --Sp00nf3d (talk) 19:53, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the structrual advice, and positive words

My concern or was; related to the manner of changes, the fact that the changes in structure made significant changes to the meaning of the content, and I felt it could be eliminated by editors offering examples or grammatical corrections vs. deletions.

I understand your description of how the talk page is intended to be used. I felt some discourse on the particular topic essential to form a structure for the presentation of this particular topic.

• list of contents as one possibility
• list of functional groups as another
• list of effective items maximizing space, function, and giving consideration to expense as my own preference.

I thought your censor of the material changes the meaning within the 'article'. If the article is simply a list of contents, it is subjective and necessarily inclusive of all items ever included inside a tin for mints. I [rightly or not] modified the structure of the article to 'category s'; fire and signal, water/food procurement, first aid, etc., previously lacking in the article. Also being concerned with the idea of removing others contributions [a la...Brass wire is better, 'reply' no copper is more common,...] I even allowed some errors with the idea that there should/must be some forum to collectively discuss the omissions and errors and that the contributors be able to continue/maintain their own sense of participation in assisting the placement of their contributed intellect with in the encyclopedic work.

I'm certain the editorial/ janitorial aspects of contribution are meritorious and essential. At initial inspection though this work was in need of assistance in terms of meat that is substance. I'm not convinced that the extensive 'removals' such as in this case were 'considered', necessary, or even 'building' toward the comprehensive collective work [wiki/codex]. You know honestly I thought the page was created by an industrious fourteen year old with a brother in the Special Forces, I'd really no desire to quash that spirit. But the page could use some 'assistance', and frankly it 'looked' like the 'authors' whom had tried to add edits, amendments or appendices had either walked away from the effort or had their efforts 'frustrated'....it could have been a better page long before I had shown my own interest in it.

It would seem that even this discussion would have place in the talk page for the article. Perhaps public collective works will necessarily be subject to vandal like revisions and perhaps this is the "Eternal September" in living action. It would seem that there should be means to present changes with out presenting 'finalized' pages to the audience. And for all my own inelegant-ses I appreciate the opportunity to 'discuss' it, hoping i will not be 'seen' as too-oo hostile. Thank you, Chris --Sp00nf3d (talk) 04:40, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Trellech

Hi there,

Just a query about the Trellech page. My changes have been removed twice now in the 'current archaeology' section. This is dissapointing as the changes made highlight an important part of the previous work undertaken in the area which the current contributor refuses to recognise. This is highly frustrating as the individual responsible has undermined public perceptions of the site and has undermined over 10 years of field work. I feel it is essential for the other side of the story to be heard, yet it keeps being removed.

Many thanks

This is certainly an improvement, but I find it amusing that you suggest that the wording was biased. Surely completely ignoring the work of others would fall under that category as well, whilst your interviews in American publications state that the previous work was conducted in the wrong place, stated as fact when it was opinion. Regarding publications, perhaps it would be pretinent for you to aquaint yourself with such key publications in the future rather than guessing to their contents. Thankyou for your updated page and I hope that your future entries will continue to respect the work of others and not use this platform as an extended advertisement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chanchoveza (talk • contribs) 18:14, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

removal of links

I saw that everything that I had added to wikipedia has been deleted - not only links, but content that I felt added to the pages.

I'm glad I hadn't gotten that far.

I apologize. I did not intend to spam anyone, but thought I was offering some great information.

I am very sorry if my information was perceived that way. I would have appreciated a warning before you removed the items of content so I could have just removed the references and left the content. (And if my was submission was removed, I also probably have issue with why some of the other external links are left on those pages for the 1950's, 1980's and bunco pages.)

Website Pros; Web.com

I ask you to assess the following proposal and to help it administer, because moving and renaming would have to be done.

Tomorrow, June 9th, 2008, Website Pros will change its name to Web.com, a company which it has acquired in 2007.

To not mess things and not overwrite existing articles I suggest to rename the existing article Web.com to Web.com (1995 - 2008) and after that rename Website Pros to Web.com.

The first paragraph of the new Web.com could begin with:

"Web.com is a name that was handed over several times from acquired companies to their new mother companies. From June 9th, 2008, the name Web.com is held by a company which called itself Website Pros from 1999 to 2008. For the history of the ex-Web.com see Web.com (1995-2008)."

Re: your message on my talk page I moved Web.com to Web.com (1995 - 2007), but couldn't move Website Pros to Web.com because this page still exists. Please help.

Re: your message on my talk page. Hope I did it alright. With your help.

Can you take another look at the edit history, an editor is adding unallowed pictures, is breaching BLP and isn't neutral. — Realist² (Come Speak To Me) 21:23, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Replied on your talk page. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:38, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

An ip adress is re-adding a comment on the article that is completely out of context with the source, its misleading. You yourself reverted this previously. I told the ip adress not to add it in that context but he re added it. This ip adress in the past added other unsourced info that put Jackson in a bad light. Could you deal with this ip or consider semi protecting the article. Its quite hard to watch the article without potentially violating 3RR. — Realist² (Who's Bad?) 20:35, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Can you help me review this page on Shy Love before I post it?

Hi Gogo Dodo, Thanks for your kind offer to help me as I am a new wikipedia editor. I found a page on Shy Love that needs some work and I am trying out the use of a user sandbox to rearrange and expand the article. In my http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:FreakyGrrl/my_sandbox I have posted the revision I am working on. If you have time to look at it, I appreciate any tips you have for me.

First of all, as I am new, did my adding of a section on her Adult Film Career and rearrangement of details improve the article as I intended? I have been looking at similar articles of pornstars and this seems the norm.

My main question is this: after researching the issue that was noted in April 08 needs citation, under her "Personal Life" in the current Shy Love article, the paragraph that begins "In the lead-in to her appearance in an "Anal Pounding" video..." why didn't the previous editor delete/revert that information instead of requesting citation? After researching it a bit, I can find no way to substantiate it, and it seems like a vague statement that would be very difficult to reference since the editor gave no title and she has been in over 250 movies. Would it be ok to delete the statement at this point, since I have found no way to back it up?

Actually I had originally returned to the article a quote which was removed. I looked up the reference and put the quote in the original context without coping the whole article verbatim since this is a reference. I did go the talk page when it was removed and invited him or her and they refused. Except to threaten me. This article in the past has become about MJ and not LMP.

What about even being Influential in the Math/Dance Scene of Los Angeles? Every city on the Math[type of rock] page has at least one or two names dropped. LA has none. and One or Two of the members have or are in a up and coming Indie rock band by the name of The Ready Aim Fire! [ http://www.myspace.com/thereadyaimfire The Ready Aim Fire's Myspace]. I think that alone would warrant the necessity of ones own Wiki page.

Since Gogo didn't really reply here, I'll just write one myself. He is an administrator here, a sysop, or a janitor.
