Speedy deletion nomination of File:Thomas McNutt Campaign Photo.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Thomas McNutt Campaign Photo.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. reddogsix (talk) 15:40, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing.

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, PoliticalPoster007. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Thomas McNutt, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. In particular, we ask that you please:

• avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;
• instead, you are encouraged to propose changes on the Talk pages of affected article(s) (see the {{request edit}} template);
• when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
• avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
• exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:02, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

@Chris Troutman: I do not have an external relationship nor am I working with/for Thomas McNutt. That being said, I question wether or not you have a conflict of interest here. I believe you may seeing as how you are trying extremely hard to report/take down this page for every reason you can think of that might work, rather than a tangible and legitimate reason. I will go ahead and report this to the higher ups that you seem to be demonstrating a clear conflict of interest and we can let them decide.

Thank you for clarifying that you don't have a CoI; that's all I ask. It wasn't me that nominated the article for deletion, nor have I said anything in that discussion, and you aren't the only account I have informed about WP:COI. That said, if you'd like to receive a Wikipedia boomerang, please take your concerns about my conduct to WP:ANI. Be sure to spell my name right as your ping wasn't done correctly. Chris Troutman (talk) 17:15, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you Chris Troutman, I apologize for assuming it was you. Im still learning all the ins and outs and I just kept seeing your name pop up, so I wrongfully accused you of nominating it for deletion. For future reference and edits, if you have any advice on what to do (or what not to do) I would love to hear it. Sincerely, PoliticalPoster007

Dan Huberty

Hello PoliticalPoster007 -- Shifting the burden of proof is a trick of sophistry. Underlying it is a logical fallacy. "it is not an unsourced attacks, research the subject. it is fact" The reference attached mentions nothing of Trump nor unions. If you deliver the requisite references -- and two will be required once the edit wars started -- then the line can go back in. Till then, it will be reverted. Rhadow (talk) 17:08, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

You are correct, I should not shift the burden of proof. Instead, I will put the lines back in attached with proper, unbiased, secondary sources attached. Will that suffice? Sincerely, PoliticalPoster007

Hello PoliticalPoster007 -- Sounds good to me. Rhadow (talk) 12:57, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

The source cited does not say "marriage and personal liberties," it refers specifically to marijuana use and marital rape. Moreover, the source cited does not describe the leak as "an underhanded effort" of any kind. That insertion of POV original research is prohibited. I suggest that you discuss the issue on the article talk page. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 15:03, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:PoliticalPoster007 reported by User:NorthBySouthBaranof (Result: ). Thank you. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 22:53, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

Warnings

Per WP:OWNTALK, you can remove messages on your own talk page if you want. However, when you get advice such as "The statements you are making about Huberty are negative and unsupported by any source, and thus is not permitted on the encyclopedia. Do not reinsert it" you would do well to heed it. Already your name is at a drama board. It's not going to go well for you. I'm sure you like the political stuff and you think Wikipedia is a key place for you to vandalize/propagandize. We've seen this behavior in years past and we don't put up with it for long. Don't edit the biographies of living people in destructive ways or you will be blocked. And sure, you'd make another account but we'd block that, too. We'd start a case on you and just stop you from editing anything, ever. Odds are we'd identify some other accounts of interest in the process. You don't want to go down that road; you want to campaign online for your guys. To do that, you need to be incremental. Maybe you can stretch out your vandalism until election day. But, the way you're going, you're going to be blocked before Friday. So, think twice. Feel free to remove this message, too, because the history tab on the page shows everything and we'll be able to refer back to this forever. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:43, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
