Ain't

Hi - do you understand what WP:VANDALISM means in Wikipedia? How on earth could my edits be construed as vandalism? I have added references supporting the exact phrasing in the lead. Your cite to the Oxford Dictionaries online (not the OED, by the way) was fine, but violates WP:UNDUE. You claim to be concerned about the "positive" spin on ain't, but all we can do is follow the sources. The sources say exactly what the lead said - that ain't is 1) widely used, 2) found in most dictionaries, and 3) nevertheless considered to be not standard, improper, etc. Saying that the word is found in "some" dictionaries is not true, and not supported by the sources, more importantly. Please consider reverting yourself. Dohn joe (talk) 20:17, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Ozzie Jurock

Hello Foobard. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Ozzie Jurock, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: claims coverage in a book by a notable journalist. Use WP:AFD instead. Thank you. So Why 12:07, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
