Heya, shame about that FAC. You planning to nominate it again (say yes :D)? You might want to find a copyeditor beforehand though - that's nearly always a sticking point. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 14:54, 14 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

A smile

I'd love to help! I agree with you on that. The introduction needs sources and I'm sure the clubs are a copyvio. I'm currently working on citing the notable alumni section and I plan on taking a photo of the existing building sometime soon. ~Itzjustdrama C ? 04:46, 13 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

On January 12, via this edit [[1]], you fraudulently inserted a link to a spamsite hosting disruptive malware but identified it as a link to a legitimate news article. This is serious vandalism. If you do this again, or if you have done this on other occasions, you should expect your editing privileges to be suspended or revoked. The matter is being reported for administrative review. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 22:54, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I defended you on that section...this warning was out of line and I am certain you never intended nothing more to source an item within the article. If someone placed malware on that site, it's clearly not your fault and I feel that HW did not assume good faith with you at all. My apologies if this was discouraging to you. Nate (chatter) 00:08, 4 July 2009 (UTC)Reply


You put in links to a spamsite and claimed they were links to a legitimate source. That's never appropriate. Even if you hadn't intended to deceive anybody, 1)you should know that sites like that pose hazards to users (my antimalware software reported a stream of tracking cookies and other stuff coming from that site that does nothing but bad stuff to any legitimate user), and 2) the link violated multiple other Wikipedia policies/guidelines, like WP:LINKVIO and WP:CITE#SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT. It's also a site that requires registration, which is generally frowned on, since so many of such ssites (there are, of course, recognized exceptions) exist to harvest email addresses for sale to spammers.

LOL. We're dealing with the wrath (and excessive free time) of Hullaballoo, folks. Of COURSE he violated WP:AGF! The guy violates WP:AGF, WP:Wikilawyering, WP:3RR, WP:WIKIHOUNDING, etc. each and every day. In reality he is a rather stalker-eque homophobe who spends hours on end vandalizing other editors' work and then hiding behind deliberately misinterpreted "rules" to defend himself. You can't stop him; he has nothing to do with his time but continue to serially vandalize any and every article that you contribute to, many times per minute, all day every day at his "local library," if he decides he doesn't like you (particularly if you identify yourself as gay or gay-friendly). He has never made a single constructive edit to Wikipedia; only destructive ones. No matter how many times his vandalism is reverted, he just keeps it up. A number of editors are slowly amassing evidence against him in the hopes that the admins will re-instate the earlier ban against him; but in general, the admins have demonstrated that they just don't care, and always try to pass off the reports of his behavior to some other admin board. Nobody wants to deal with him. Feel free to discuss on my talk page. Don't try to bring anything up on his; he will instantaneously erase it and call you "disruptive" or say you're "harassing" him. He loves to play victim. Cubert (talk)

John Christie (murderer)

edit

Hello there. I've requested a peer review for the article on John Christie (murderer) and I'm looking for feedback from people interested in serial killers. John Christie was a British serial killer from the 1940s and 50s who murdered a number of women but was also controversially involved in another murder trial, where he gave what's now considered perjured evidence against a fellow tenant. The case generated a lot of controversy in the UK. I'm hoping to turn the article into a featured article, so I'm looking for any comments about potential problems or if there's anything that needs improving. The peer review is available here. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Ethnicelebs.com as a source

edit

Hi XXXXXX. I noticed that you recently used ethnicelebs.com as a source for biographical information in Jonathan Groff. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal (talk) 20:08, 1 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Spring Awakening: Those You've Known moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Spring Awakening: Those You've Known, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jonathan Groff, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Merrily We Roll Along. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
