Pia Mechler

Hi, you contacted me asking for reference. I don't know how to add them. But here are some links FYI on this topic:

Dave Heal Page

Hi,

I got a message saying the page I created about 'Dave Heal' needs a reference. Could you explain to me what this is and how i do it?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charlieheal123 (talk • contribs) 17:52, 11 January 2016‎ (UTC)

@Charlieheal123: This was about Dave Heal, a biography of a living person without references. Please visit WP:REFB to learn about adding references. Thank you.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:29, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Army Reserve Sustainment Command heraldry

I've declined your request to speedy delete Army Reserve Sustainment Command because only a portion of the article was potentially affected by the copying, not the whole article. On further review, the blazon and badge description were found at http://www.tioh.hqda.pentagon.mil/Catalog/HeraldryMulti.aspx?CategoryId=7106&grp=2&menu=Uniformed%20Services, which is published by the US Department of Defense. Since US government publications are in the public domain, and since the heraldry clearly originates at DoD and not the badge-making business, I don't see this as being a copyright violation.

Now, there are any number of other issues with ARSC that could probably get it axed, but copyright violation isn't one of them. —C.Fred (talk) 02:30, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. Sorry for the extra work. If that editor keeps going, I predict (edit warring or UAA), blocking, and (prodding and deleting) or AfD.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 02:40, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Stub needs references or it will be deleted

Hi, you contacted me asking for reference for the stub page, Jesper Frismann. I'm not sure how to add them, but I have giving it a try. Please review the page and tell me, if it is ok.

I have been looking at another danish dressage rider (Anne Grethe Jensen), whom Jesper participated together with for the Danish silver medalist team at the European Dressage Championship in Copenhagen in 1985.

Completely False Article Frederick Achom

Hello,

I would like to draw your attention to this wikipedia article Frederick Achom, at first look it looks like a good article, but it hides most of the real information. If you see article's history you will see that it has been under several editing wars. Almost all claims made in the article are supported in the article are made using own links or PR releases. Also the links which seem genuine like London's 1000 most influential people 2010: Night OwlsLondon's 1000 most influential people 2011: Night Owls have many things wrong in them- they claim to be 1000 but not more than 6 are present; they have no author. They are off the website but somehow have crept into the website. There are many such cases in this wiki article.

Frederick Achom is using his wiki article to show potential investors how great he is by supplying all false information and duping them of money. He has been previously convicted and jailed which was earlier in the article but now has somehow disappeared. [1] [2]

[3] [4]

I hope you will understand the gravity of the situation and help in rectifying by either getting the page deleted or corrected.

Thank You. NihartouJason (talk) 04:37, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

I am caught in an IP block. — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 17:19, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Accept reason:

You're an obviously qualifying candidate for IP block exemption, so consider it done (and thanks for the Puffin Browser tip ;-) Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 22:44, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

I see you're editing now. Is this still an issue? If so, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Autoblock so we can help you clear it. Otherwise, you can remove/disable the unblock request. only (talk) 22:04, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Yes, still an issue in one place, 107.178.32.0/20. I got stuck on Step 3, could not find "What do I do now?"   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 22:42, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

@Elockid:, could you take a look at this issue? You carried out the block today and Jeff G. appears to be caught by it. only (talk) 23:13, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

@Only: That is a year+ autoblock on multiple /20 ranges. All I need to get around it is IPBE.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:12, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Have you recently been using proxy services? Elockid ^{Message me} 14:08, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

@Elockid: Yes, I can't use my PC at present, so I am reduced to using iOS on my iPhone (most popular phone on the planet) and iPad. The best browser I have found for me on iOS is Puffin Browser Pro, which lets me use Flash and zoom (unlike stock Safari). It also does image scaledown to save on mobile data charges, I guess that's where the proxying comes in. In addition, it doesn't make me tap twice to take action on a hyperlink.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 16:33, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Seems to me like a good candidate for IPBE. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 22:25, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

@Jpgordon: thank you. Perhaps I was not clear enough earlier. for the reasons mentioned above, I hereby request the IP block exemption (IPBE) flag. Having read that page, I understand that any Administrator here may grant it, and I promise not to abuse it.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 22:53, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Someone beat me to it - done deal. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 22:59, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

(ec) Thank you both very much! FYI, Puffin Web Browser is the free version that works just as well, but is supported by ads. I tried that first, before paying to go pro.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 23:04, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Frederick Achom/sandbox

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Frederick Achom/sandbox, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Frederick Achom. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:17, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

No kidding, it's a sandbox.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 15:24, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Michael McDerman

Jeff,

My friend Susan and I are working on fixing the article Michael McDerman. We are still adding links and citations.

Thanks, Rod — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rodsena37 (talk • contribs) 10:19, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

@Rodsena37: Good luck with that. I'll be back later.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 10:23, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Ilja Visser

Hi Jeff G.,

You deleted my page about Ilja Visser, a Dutch Couture designer. I would really appreciate if you could reopen the Ilja Visser page, and give me the chance to improve it in order to make it a Wikipedia worthy page. I tried to improve it before, but this obviously wasn't good enough. I believe that the story that I wrote was a clear sum-up about her career (I also looked at other pages of designers for examples), and was not aware that is seemed as a page for promotional purposes. All I wanted was to give people the chance to learn more about the career of Ilja Visser, as she is very populair in the Netherlands and is gaining more interest internationally.

Thanks in advance!

Michael McDerman Page

Jeff,

Yes, Michael McDerman used the Stage Name Michael Ferreira, when he wrote, produced, and starred in the Film It's Me, Matthew! That's why I added the name Michael Ferreira to other names. Should I mention that on the page?

Rod — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rodsena37 (talk • contribs) 03:15, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Yes, please.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 03:40, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Jeff,

I wanted to send you an email regarding another page. What is your contact? Susanmac50 (talk) 13:50, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Susanmac50Susanmac50 (talk) 13:50, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Jeff, [Special:Contributions/Rodsena37|contribs]]) said you were super helpful in resolving the Michael McDerman page. I was hopng you can help me resolve the It's Me, Matthew! page.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_Me,_Matthew! I have carbon copy's of my citation and wanted to send them to you and don't know what is the best method? Do you have an email I can send it to to expedite this process? Thanks and I look forward to hearing back from you. ~ Susanmac50 Susanmac50 (talk) 22:13, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Yes, see my previous reply.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:17, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

Michael McDerman Page

Hi Jeff,

Susan and I are working on cleaning up the reference link section for the Michael McDerman page. For some reason it doubled and we don't know how to fix it. We plan on using the help talk section for advice. Can you help fix the URL's? We have been navigating WP website but are still lost in trying to figure it out. We hope to have it resolved soon. Susan plans on going on Help talk.

Thanks, Rod — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rodsena37 (talk • contribs) 09:41, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

I'm working on it.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 16:34, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

@Rodsena37: Is he also known as Michael Ferreira? I'm confused about the credits for It's Me, Matthew!.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 00:31, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi Jeff, is there an actual email personal or WP email address you have? When we press the link you put down, it navigates us to the next page that says special user address. Susan would like to send you a copy of the Herldsun, HX Magazine and Next Magazine premier party clips and Luso Americano, Which should be enough to satisfy WP requirements. Thanks for you help. Rodsena37 (talk) 16:36, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

@Rodsena37: and @Susanmac50: For privacy reasons, I do not reveal email addresses on-wiki. If you have an email address in your preferences, it should be easy for you to email me by filling out the form (including links to press clippings online) and tapping "Send". Once we establish email contact, you will be able to send me files. Also, your signatures should be EXACTLY four tildes ( ~~~~ ), not eight, twelve, or any other number.   — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 04:13, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
