Welcome

Hello, J390, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

October 2010

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Glenn Beck. Thank you. The Resident Anthropologist (talk) 01:56, 18 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You make it look like I said something POV. I just said he was opposed to illegal immigration. How is that controversial? J390 (talk) 06:01, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

April 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Nancy Drew with this edit, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

September 2012

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 07:02, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop - WP:BLP violations

You need to stop adding categories to articles about living people if there is no sourced material in the article to support the category. Please go back and revert any recent additions you have made to articles that are not verified within the article by reliable sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 21:44, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

None of my additions were untrue, and were well known to boot. If we can put Glenn Beck and Donald Trump in the conspiracy theorist category, of course we can put O'Donnell, Van Jones, Wright, Farrakhan, and Malloy for their advancement of theories about 9/11 or AIDS, many times being central to their biography. J390 (talk) 22:01, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

if you are here to spread the truth, you are in the wrong place. All content, but particularly potentially controversial content about living people requires the most reputable sourcing. WND fails spectacularly in "having a reputation for fact checking and accuracy". You will need to find other sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 22:37, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was a true account regardless of what you think about their other stuff. If DemocraticUnderground posted a true account of something, I'd link to them too. J390 (talk) 22:59, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia requires verifibility from reliable sources, not claims of "truth". -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:04, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia doesn't discriminate between sources as long as they're verifying something that actually happened. Regardless of rather it's WND, MediaMatters, our sources don't have to be neutral. J390 (talk) 23:05, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia STRONGLY differentiates between acceptable sources and random postings on the web. Content about living people requires the HIGHEST level of reliable sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:08, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What are the definition of reliable sources? There's always going to be somebody saying one source or another is unreliable. J390 (talk) 23:09, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

if you are too lazy to read the links to the Wikipedia definitions of reliable sources that I have included in every posting on this page then I am through attempting to discuss with you. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:11, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion and speculation are one thing, documented facts are another. If you have a problem with my additions then I dare and urge you to remove the conspiracy theorist category and the Media Matters links from the Glenn Beck article. J390 (talk) 02:56, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't use that article to make a WP:POINT. See for instance [1]. Dougweller (talk) 09:20, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The CSMonitor has a clear slant too in the opposite direction. Why would they be a reputable source but not WND? Besides, Van Jones, O'Donnell, Wright, and Malloy believe in clandestine conspiracies if that's supposed to be the justification. "A commonly used shortcut to this page is WP:POINT. However, just because someone is making a point does not mean that s/he is disrupting Wikipedia to illustrate it. As a rule, one engaging in "POINTY" behavior is making edits which s/he does not really agree with, for the deliberate purpose of drawing opposition." J390 (talk) 02:39, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop removing the category. It's clear you don't agree with our policy on sources, but trying to edit this way is non-productive and may get you taken to ANI. Dougweller (talk) 19:17, 26 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

July 2013

Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Libertarian Democrat has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. Please use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did, and feel free to use the sandbox for any tests you may want to do. Thank you. Adding such commentary about a living person as you did here [2] is not appropriate. – S. Rich (talk) 18:28, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

With all respect to you, it was a pretty well covered online scandal about Corzine's actions at the World Bank he was widely criticized for. You talk about me adding "misleading or inaccurate information". What's misleading and inaccurate information is claiming Obama or Corzine are at all libertarian. It's been widely demonstrated Obama is anything but. That's objective. J390 (talk) 20:44, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was referring to the "embezzling" comment in the edit summary. The Jon Corzine article has nothing about the World Bank or embezzlement. There were civil charges, but a civil charge is far different the criminal charge of embezzlement. The criminal investigation did not lead to criminal charges. Please use caution when making statements on Wikipedia about living persons. For more information, see WP:BLP. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 21:05, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of Jewish states and dynasties moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, List of Jewish states and dynasties, does not have enough sources and citations 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.
