The people who want the Truehope post deleted are greatly mistaken. The links that I posted were accurate. I tried posting links to government hearings, Supreme Court decisions, scholarly articles and more. It is really interesting that this site was restarted the very week when the Supreme Court in British Columbia decided that a 27 year-old man who murdered his father and severely injured his mother was taken off his psych. meds and started on Empowerplus.
There have been other people who have suffered. There have been no double-blinded scientific studies ever. The whole story can be seen here. I challenge you to read the book. If you want I can send one to you via an attachment.

Dear Author/ C.Fred
My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address edited an article on Epidermolysis bullosa. I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Hydra_Rain and if interested, please visit my Talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance. Hydra Rain ( talk) 09:41, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
User:Pierceybrian22 is back, although technically he has never gone away, frequently making edits with a dynamic IP address. We talked about him previously here. He's created a new account User:Pierceybrian25, and I was hoping you can keep an eye on him. His edits are mostly minor but annoying and usually have to be reverted. He doesn't have any grasp of wikipedia policies, and messages never get through to him. Yet if he's going to edit, I'd rather have him logged on rather than editing with a different IP every month or so. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 20:44, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
Dear Fred:
You deleted my additions re the Psalms page before they were even completed as I was having difficulty getting it to read the way I desired. Your basis is that it doesn't read like an encyclopedia article, but you do not claim to be an expert on the psalms so how would you know what an encylcopdeia article should resd like. Indeed, you and others who admittedly are very pleasant with your communications are in my opinion, abusing your power by placing certain topics on your watch list and for reasons only you know consistently deleting those additions of certain contributora. I spent over a year researching and writing a book about the psalms yet you deem yourself more qualified to judge what the text should state. If you were truly fair and in keeping with the supposed purpose of Wikipedia you and other administrators would be very specific as to what was objectionable in an article and give the contributor the option--if he/she agreed there was a valid point--to modify their addition. Anyway, I will soon add a short addition; I am curious what reason you will come up with this time.

Hi C.Fred. The correct title for the article is " Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" or " Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)"? All other interwikis has the name of the article Pretty Fly (for a White Guy), except the Italian. For is a preposition, should be used with lowercase letter, right? But because of "For" is the first word after the parentheses, must be used with capital letter?
My other doubt is on the article " Cruising California (Bumpin' In My Trunk)". Would the correct move be to " Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk)"? "In" is a preposition, so I think that the correct title is Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk), right? All other interwikis has the name of the article with "Bumpin' in My Trunk" and not with "Bumpin' In My Trunk". The IP 130.65.109.35 moved automatically "Cruising California (Bumpin' In My Trunk)" to "Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk)", but I reverted to preserve the historic of the article.
You are an experienced editor and also an administrator. Can you solve this problem? Thank you. OffsBlink ( talk) 20:04, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
I would like to request for "Sue Pyo" redirect to be deleted because the redirect makes no sense, such as redirecting Apple to Orange.

I am having trouble with a user that keeps adding elimination tables to the article, after we already decided on a consensus that elimination tables are to no longer be added onto the season articles. However, this user does not understand that and keeps adding the tables back. I reverted the user's edit twice now and I'm afraid that if I revert the user's edit one more time, I might break the three-revert rule. Please help, and see what you can do with this user. I even did some constructive edits on that article by adding more content to the "Production" section, but this user keeps reverting my edits. The user is 72.73.85.88. Giggett ( talk) 00:44, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
Looks like the editor 72.73.85.88 is back and this time he has migrated to the List of Total Drama characters article where he has reverted over three weeks of constructive editing back to an old revision from late June and replaced new content with old elimination tables that are already located in the List of Total Drama episodes article. I don't know if this is vandalism, but it looks like the user might be doing the same activity as he did with the Total Drama Wolrd Tour article last week. Giggett ( talk) 16:51, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi...There has been a recent discussion on formatting an elimination table here: Talk:MasterChef_(US_season_3). One of the users (Heyhello1234567) has shown some incredibly rude and out of line behavior with the user named Worstcook and I figured to report it to an administrator. Please read the whole discussion page to see multiple examples. I also discovered that a few days prior, the former user made some harsh and uncivil comments towards the latter here: User_talk:Worstcook. I hope there is a way to sort this out or provide repercussions towards Heyhello1234567. Thank you. 96.32.2.97 ( talk) 20:37, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Sorry that my info was not "neutral". It is extremely difficult to be neutral when expressing an opinion which differs radically from prior contributors on this subject. Many of the references , for example the gospels etc have been used as source documents to defend positions regarding the existence of a Judean christ. As I know and many other scholars know for a certainty that the so called gospels are not history, but alegory, myth and legend beginning in ancient Egypt, but found in India, and Syria and the Jewish texts predating the so called christian era by hundreds and in many cases thousands of years, it is ridiculous to exclude my comments. But if you are going to exclude them because they are not "neutral" then surely you must exclude all postings using the 'gospels"as a reference since it is plainly material from older sources and the story is patently impossible for anyone of more than limited intellect to accept. Can one select only the material that supports his or her point and dismiss other relevant info from the same source because it conflicts with a point of view held by someone else? I have much more to say on the subject and yes I can support my position with indisputable references. Thank you Kuhnalvin ( talk) 04:54, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Chris!
Several months ago you removed "Link Valley" from the location info of a private school.
The thing is, when talking about places in big cities, one must always identify the neighborhoods, as recognized by reliable sources or by concrete maps of neighborhoods. This Chronicle article states "What's more, classes will begin this fall at the new $13 million Jewish high school, located in Link Valley where crime-ridden apartments once stood. The sprawling campus will include two gymnasiums, soccer fields, computer center and 500-seat theater-style auditorium." - The "Jewish high school" is Emery Weiner.

I wanted to restart a discussion on the Destinee & Paris wiki page. There are new sources that justify them having their own wiki page. The page they are redirected to is a defunct group that no longer exists. They have legally been "Destinee & Paris" for some time now, and are legally signed to Interscope Records as "Destinee & Paris", made an appearance on American Idol, released a new single and currently on tour with Brittany Spears.

I was attempting to create an entry for the american folk band Y La Bamba when I found that an earlier entry had already been deleted by you. I would like permission to attempt to create the page again. The last entry was deleted due to "does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject". I believe that my entry will satisfy this condition and that Y La Bamba is a band of large enough significance to deserve its own entry.

Fred, the last I saw was more than 4 people contributing to my article- with hyperlinks and outside sources trying to improve the article. I just don't understand why admins zeroed in on an article that happened to be the one that I created, and Hughes is hardly a director of little or no nobility. He has sold 3 screenplays- his one screenplay won Best Screenplay last year at the Beverly Hills Film Festival. The deletion discussion didn't remain open long- seems like a quick trigger on deleting what was turning into a really good article about a very promising filmmaker. I simply fail to see the logic here. I stumble across many articles on here all the time and is states "being considered for deletion", and they're still here a year later. Give me a break. Your points aren't really that valid. I would like to recreate the article again, and not be targeted. Is this okay? Bellatarr ( talk) 05:37, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

When closing discussions at WP:PUF, please remember to place {{ puf top}} after the section header, not before it as is done at AFD. This tends to work better on discussion pages organized as a daily page for all discussions, as otherwise the closing header is actually located at the end of the previous discussion section (see this, for example). It also confuses the bot that clerks the discussion pages. Thanks! Anomie ⚔ 18:05, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I have expressed my desire to add a new subsection to the La Luz Del Mundo article. But due to the nature of the subsection and the history of the article itself, I felt that discussion was warranted before taking any action. I would like to invite you to provide you opinion on the discussion on this subject (there are currently only opinions voiced). Here is the link on the talk page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:La_Luz_del_Mundo#Dr._Jorge_Erdely
If you'd prefer to not give any opinions, is there a way for me to invite more editors? This article could be expanded further and more information provided. There is currently only one other editor contributing to the article, and they have been very helpful.

the source is reliable.dont be like user melanieN (whom probably reffered this article to you) and compare them to statute of tmz.this is a light weight notable article about a musician you have what you need yet your prying for more. we can point out a million articles that have been created yet need all kinds of sources and updating. — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Toven ( talk • contribs) 06:10, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
Comment: Agree with what C.Fred just said. The one independent source does not seem to be a reliable news source, but a free website. It is also 90% The Toven talking about himself.

we located contact info for j.Little who edited the interview and is infact a san hop editor you can see her name at the bottom of the interview contact her at [redacted] im sure she will simply verify this. any further verification would then be unfair scrutany. — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Toven ( talk • contribs) 03:05, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

yes,they really can.its very clear who they are D.Brown conducted the interview and J.Little is the co Owner and chief editor of the website it is clearly noted at the top of the website and at the bottom of the article who are you to say they cant vouch for themself? your desperately trying to deny and delete our article by making up rules as we go.we will take legal action if you continue to badger and scrutinize our article in this way.not clear who they are?its not clear who you are for that matter?nor is it clear to some who God is.Thats why their called refrences.as for reliability...the evidence show that they are.your threading a thin line judging people,and their reputation the way you are!!!!!!!!!

myspace band?ha first of all the only thing that seperates a talented myspace band from some over exposed mainstream artist is a lucritive record deal with a major label.is this a popularity contest on wiki or a notability issue anwser that?
below the bar for this article?dont think so when you get down to the basic of what the article is all about it boils down to The Million Dollar Mixtape period.Thats one of the most notable thing done by this musician and a page for that has been submitted and denied(by a self admitted newcomer named wywin) because The Toven article has not been accepted.please see link below

we will read what you suggested momentarily however we dont believe it applies to our article

The reason I removed those parts from Brad Schneider's page is because those are based on attacks from his opponent Robert Dold not actual hard facts. One of those sections removed was about Brad's business record claiming he received no income, where it was cited from a non-credible biased source. A baseless attack, not a proven fact. Same goes with the sentence about J-Street, where it says Brad is a member and a supporter. He is not a member and he is not endorsed by them. I simply removed them because those are not proven facts, and the citations do not back those claims up. Those sentences on Brad's page were added by someone from his opponent's campaign, and I removed them because they are simply not true.

Hi, I apologize in advance for asking something that has nothing to do with the topic of this article. I am a student of English grammar. Your page got my attention for the many occurrences of similar expressions like "their job is to", all the variations of which I have listed here:
In 1, 3, and 6, you used the qualifying adjective 'main' and 'primary' for the noun; in other cases you did not. But I have an observation: when you say "one's job/function/role/object is to X", you very likely intend for it to mean "one's main/primary job/function/role/object is to X", i.e. the above 6 variations are roughly equivalent in meaning, with or without 'main/primary'. This would mean that if we remove 'main/primary' from 1, 3, and 6 and attach them to 2, 4, and 5, the meaning of the whole article would be intact. In other words, expressions like "one's job is" carries the implication of "one's main/primary job is", if not "one's only/sole job is". The implication can be strong or slight; different people have different perception about its strength. Based on your intuition and intention while writing the article, could you either confirm or deny the existence of such an implication? That'll be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello I see you posted to me and my 'disruptive' editing. Did you happen to notice where I suggested that there be both a basic plot outline summary AND a detailed page for all the other information? as it is done here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enemies_%28Stargate_SG-1%29
This way there is both types of information available. Lots and lots for those who have already seen it and want to know more AND basic plot summaries for those who don't want there show ruined.
I am not randomly vandalizing the articles, I am trying to make both sides happy. AussieLegend does not appear to want to listen to any other solutions, other than quoting policy to me. I hope that you can see the difference in what I'm proposing.
I have proposed this policy change in mediation and have found that more than a few people have this complaint as well. I do not see why it can't be both.

It's a waste of time to attempt to get concensus from a group of mormons about romney. Since a mormon attorney runs wikipedia's board now (or did) and the LDS church pours money hand over fist into the wikimedia foundation, attempting to gain concensus is waste. They will just kibbitz through the LDS church chat room and send legions of meatpuppets to revert. Their articles are like their teachings -- works of fiction.

Dear C.Fred,
You very kindly agreed with my request to amend the North Cyprus page to include a section on the economy and most importantly to notify readers of a highly sensitive 'test' case called Kulaksiz 5, which will determine the fate of thousands of Expats and foreign homebuyers there.
Your agreement, along with one or two other editors, is only in principle, and the request was denied in relation to the current form of my recommendations ″undue weight".
May I make a new suggestion therefore. How about I reduce the impact of the property abuses on the economy to one short paragraph citing the Kulaksiz case, and then have a seperate page on the Kulaksiz 5 case, as did the "orams" case which also was a landmark case there.
That is suggestion 1.
Suggestion 2 would be one short paragraph on the economy part of my recommendation, and one seperate short section on Kulaksiz 5 case. You see, to get agreement from yourself and the other editors, I really need to know what kind of "weight" I should be aiming for. If I not I could see there being a lot of suggested amendments and requests, before anything is actually added. There is a highly important court case on the 29th November (3 days time) which is the opening of the Main Case Kulaksiz 5 residents vs Akfinans Bank, and it would be timely to have some information keeping people up to date on the case and it's proceedings (even if abbreviated updates, ie once sentence)
Thank you for your time on this matter.
Kind regards,

This scandal was erroneously marketed by the media, initially, as a "Penn State" scandal. It has since been corrected in the media as the Jerry Sandusky/Second Mile scandal. The fact that some of the incidents allegedly took place at Penn State (note that the JS was not indicted on any of those charges), but that the majority took place elsewhere and the fact that JS was a FORMER coach at Penn State, but worked at the Second Mile during the entire time period, makes your Topic erroneous, and sensationalized.

Hey C.

Plus, even South Florida experiences cold snaps as low as 27F with two incidents of snow flurries. This never happens in places that are truly tropical, unless it is on a mountain.

Hi Fred,
Thanks for your msg. I want to propose a solution that I think should address the concerns you and a couple of others have referred to. The article www.writingachievement.com/Retention.htm contains pertinent and useful content. If that page were to be recast as a stand alone PDF w no links to the website (or its associated pages) on which it currently appears would that solve the issue? Betsaari ( talk) 17:32, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
Re "not a broad scholarly piece" on the subject. The piece actually does more than describe how one program deals with retention; true, that is how the piece begins. Most of it offers experience based solutions for dealing with the larger problem. Specific things programs can do to avoid the retention/promotion dilemma. The "research" the "scholarship" comes fro the real world; from actual programs and actual experience. Does wikipedia have a policy that de-privileges that sort of content, that kind of contribution? Are we talking about policy or about your opinion of its worth? That's not a sarcastic question; it's an honest one. I can see your issue w links and understand the policy about that now. It seems the pdf w/out links would meet the policy. No? Betsaari ( talk) 22:07, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Fred,
Have left a lengthy response to Barek which followed just below yours; would like you to read it as I cannot reproduce it here. I need guidance as to how to further the conversation; you suggested social promotion talk page but when I went there it seemed like it might be defunct or inactive? Not sure. Betsaari ( talk) 01:06, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
Fred,
It appears that you have created the "dead link" for ref #1 on the above page. That's a start, but the problem is that the link itself is not "dead." The new owner of topschools has kept the original htm page name "/InternationalModel.htm". Click on the link itself; you will see that it is "live." But you will also see that the content is in NO way related to the school or to the page. This is because after selling the domain name last June, I moved the content (InternationalModel.,htm) over to my new domain.
Two things have to be done re the link: either it links to writingachievement.com/InternationalModel.htm, or it goes away (becomes invisible) entirely. I put the link there a number of years ago when I owned topschools; now that link needs to be updated or removed, one or the other.
About a week ago I added new external links as you know. Barek deleted all of those w no advance heads up or discussion, but in doing so, reverted the ref #1 to a link that is now incorrect.
I would like you to do this asap, please. I will check again tonight and if necessary, I will delete ref. #1 myself. I am a little gun shy about doing this because of the nature of some wiki emails communicated to me; but I will do it because it is not "harming" wiki but correcting it. I placed the original link there; I should be able to remove it without fuss. I will "remove" it and not "update" it because it has become clear to me that even though I am the founder of that school, I am not considered a reliable source.

Hi There and Thanks for the Welcome and Heads up :-)
First my apologies for erasing so abruptly - I meant no disrespect. Second, I am no "pro" Farrokh, but it is not good to be so biased and narrow. I have taken cpurses with Kaveh Farrokh at UBC-Continuing Studies, and UBC does cite him as a historian (Farrokh never said that himself). He is a historian, as well as a clinical counsellor. Also he is affiliated with WAALM whic got a Nobel Peace Prize nomination. All I say is fine, you say "counsellor" but why the silence with this?
Also, no mention of his awards, which is unbalanced. I think the issue is this: whu such emphasis on "counsellor" when even the UBC website cites him as a member of Continuing Studies - ad I was one of his students in 2009 I recall.
Anyhow, many thans for being understanding and so welcoming :-) I look forward to your response :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Faranak888 ( talk • contribs) 01:35, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi Fred,
Did some research today looking for 2004 news articles that address the question barek raised re third party validation of Bruce S involvement in this school. Of the four, three have been archived by zoom info; but as you open those you will see the verifiability of the source, either Everett Herald or Seattle Times. Scrolling through each you will see the principal named.

Fred,
Given the links I have shared re marysville a&t, and the refs to the principal's work at other schools, is it time to consider re-adding www.writingachievement.com/InternationalModel.htm to this page as an external link? It's the history of the founding of the school told from a founder's perspective. It is not the article itself, it is a link.
http://www.northkitsapherald.com/news/19747059.html
If you read this article, it also describes involvement in Bellevue International, Lake Washington International and Marysville Arts and Technology. Furthermore, it describes the retention policy at the international schools, which was the subject of the page www.writingachievement.com/Retention.htm that barek deleted from the Wiki Social Promotion page.
Given these third party sources, I am asking you to consider reverting Barek's deletions because the reliable sources (news articles) exist. That means we would reinstate those pages that were deleted, specifically InternationalModel.htm for LW and Bellevue and Retention.htm for the wiki page Social Promotion.
Again, these would be links, not the body of the page. I would think that the body of the page would be encyclopedic in style, but that links from first hand participants, founders or principals would be a useful addendum to an encyclopedia article. For ex., if we found a personal letter from Fredrick Douglass to his wife, would we not include it if it described his exp w slavery, even though, technically he is not a "reliable source" by wp standards? I am reminded of the recent Philip Roth flap. Betsaari ( talk) 22:42, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Fred, A former student of mine created the History of Bellevue International School video which is referenced on the Bellevue International School page. It's a great video. But according to your standards it should not be listed on the page. Why? First, because the questions were created by, and filming done by a student at the school--obviously one too close to the subject; second, it is entirely self-published; third, and most damning, the video interviews teachers who actually founded and worked at the school. They are obviously not reliable sources. Obviously. They definitely have a conflict of interest. Don't you see how silly this is getting? Betsaari ( talk) 00:03, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

It appears that you are one of the main contributors to the Jerry Speziale biography so I thought you should know that a user has recently taken it upon him/herself to delete about 80% of the contents without bothering to discuss it with the contributing editors, or anyone. The reason? "This is an encyclopedia not a biography" which doesn't really make sense because Wikipedia is filled with biographies and many of them are filled with extensive coverage of the person's accomplishments, work history and so forth. I have restored the page to its prior setting, however I thought you might want to keep an eye on the page. The photo gallery section IMO should be placed near the end of the bio. Other than things like that it looks like a well researched and well sourced piece of writing. -- Gwillhickers ( talk) 00:22, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

I undid your translation of " Doppelgänger" ("double-goer") and shortly wanted to explain this:
You wrote that you got this information from the web dictionary http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/doppelg%C3%A4nger
It actually says:
"Origin of DOPPELGÄNGER
German Doppelgänger, from doppel- double + -gänger goer"
BUT THIS DOESN'T MEAN "DOUBLE-GOER" WAS THE RIGHT TRANSLATION!!
The dictionary also gives an example for the usage of Doppelgänger:
"<at the mall today I saw someone who could be your doppelgänger>"
This example is very good, because Doppelgänger is really used in such a context. Of course you will end up with double-goer, if you try to translate it word by word, but languages are far to complicated to do it that way. The German word "Doppelgänger" is only comparable to the English "look-alike" and in some cases "Alter Ego".
Please don't feel attacked - I just wanted to give you some friendly advice... I apologize in advance in case it doesn't sound as friendly as I wanted it to.
Kind regards!

I just spent two hours updating Ohio politicians for the new general assembly. Hut 8.5 is on some tirade to revert any edit by any individual on this. I am very passionate and informed on the general assembly and it is very frustrating to see good edits reverted. Take a look at joe Schiavoni as an example of the problems he causes. He also deleted a page on John Rogers who is a new representative. You will see that all of his reversions make no sense in keeping these pages up to date. In fact, he has no interest or knowledge on these topics at all. I am very upset.

Hi C.Fred, I understand that Wikipedia wants to keep their pages limited to what is generally considered popular enough..and I understand that there are way too many bands in existence to allow every independent non-signed band a page section in Wikipedia..but I do believe there are a number of non-signed bands out there who are worth mentioning simply due to the success they have managed to achieve. I am certain that Orange Grove is more popular than many bands out there who are actually signed, plus they have managed to stick around for over ten years and continue to release high quality productions in both song and video. I live in The Hague and have been to many of their concerts in this city and others. I have seen the draw crowds of over 1000 here. When they have performed on certain islands in the Caribbean they have also drawn upwards of 1000 to a concert and on those islands their music can be heard regularly on most of the local radio stations.
Is there no exception for bands that are not signed to a label? I can show you many examples of bands that are signed and do not have half the fans that Orange Grove does.

C Fred, I know that you have been active in the Florida-Georgia football rivalry discussions in the past. A random IP user has been making historically inaccurate edits to the Georgia Bulldogs football article regarding the number of national championships won and/or claimed by the Georgia program. The usual editors with an affinity for UGA-related subjects, including Jhortman, have not been active since the holidays. In their absence, I would ask that you intercede with the IP. I've reverted his edits at least three times over the past several days, and I am afraid the situation might escalate given my history of editing Florida Gators-related articles and the inevitable name-calling an bias accusations begin.

Not sure why you are tagging the photos I am uploading of Mr. Melick. Of course these photos are not in use because they have not been linked to the article I am writing yet!!!

I'm sure the estates of Stan Kenton, Guy Lombardo, or Bill Evans, for example, did agree to that.

Hello there. You commented on my article regarding the notability of the Maayan Torah Day School. It is the first article I've written and I'm not sure what the procedure is for responding to you; do I do it here or in the article? You wrote that demonstrating notability would probably require showing that the school "has gotten coverage in reliable sources outside Portland." The school has had write-ups in various Jewish publications. Here are links to an article in the Jewish Review and a case study from the Orthodox Union. Here is a link to an explanatory blurb on the OU's case studies on day school affordability initiatives. I'm also including a link to an article in the Portland Tribune that is in a similar vein to the OU case study and further displays Maayan's notability. I can track down some more write ups if you think I ought to. I really appreciate your going over my article and would also appreciate any more advice on what my next step should be.

I was looking though the report, and apparently he was warned about getting consensus on the talk page two days ago, and he ignored it and kept on revert warring, so I did the 31 hour block, but by the time I was about to close the edit warring discussion, I noticed you looked at it first and gave him a warning. I think it's better to give him a 31 hour time out as he was warned. Looks like one of those nationalist single purpose accounts anyways. Secret account 18:02, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
The info box says he was born in 1120 BC Los Angeles. LA didn't exist in 1120 AD. That's the reason(plus the hidden info box) why this smells like a hoax. ...William 18:46, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Dear Fred,
I think the wiki article should reflect the facts in the NEJM letter below. I tried to summarize those facts and state their implication regarding B&Ls selective use of the data in their advertising. Not sure why you've removed my addition.
N Engl J Med 2008; 359:1735-1736October 16, 2008DOI: 10.1056/NEJMc081470
To the Editor: The review of age-related macular degeneration by Jager et al. (June 12 issue)1 does not refer to an editorial accompanying the report of the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) in the Archives of Ophthalmology in 2001 and two subsequent letters,2-4 all of which criticized the study analysis for setting aside a negative result in which dietary supplementation with high doses of vitamins and minerals was ineffective and instead reporting on a subgroup in which the result was positive. The investigators argued that the excluded patients had too few end points to be eligible for treatment. However, the group of patients who received the supplement had greater disease progression and provided valuable data regarding early intervention.
Discarding prespecified negative analyses and reporting on positive subgroup analyses has been repeatedly discouraged.5 The omission of the above information perpetuates the myth that the supplement used in the AREDS was effective, at the price of a treatment that has no benefit and carries undetermined risks.
Daniel Seigel, Sc.D. [redacted]

B&L advertising:
So the product, according to AREDS, prevents the progression of disease, but it is not intended to prevent any disease?
The studies conclusions can be questioned and the article in wiki should reflect this. It might also add the caveat that clinical studies supported by drug companies might not be valid, especially when those drug companies plan to use the results in their advertising.

Good day! I am deeply sorry for breaking the three revert rule. May I ask you to pay a little attention for the section "External links" of [6] In "Talk" page, section "Mods and unofficial patches", [7] states "I removed most of the "unofficial patches" section, leaving the first paragraph since it was backed up by a reliable source", referring to [8] as a reliable source and deleting link to the unofficial patch of modder [9] because this is unreliable source. The problem is that a protected by [10] link [11], titled as "Unofficial patch" is a selection of different mods, choosed by [12] depending on their preferences. Therefore one unofficial patch [13] is denied(though it's created by acknowledged author- [14]), while another is promoting, thus violating "Tendentious editing" rule. It is also feeding the warring between rival modders. That's why I am considering my last editing as a prudent one: the link to [15] should be titled as [16] site's page, not as a link to supposedly one and the only mod/patch(thus advertising it). Thank you for your time! Dazkalt ( talk) 16:35, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

I was born about the same time and grew up there going to Piedmont schools and he was unknown there 100% until he became famous and moved there. There are no hospitals or ANY medical related facilities in Piedmont then or now-not one- so was it a home birth? It is clearly a falsehood and needs to be changed asap.

Fred The point I made about the FA Cup incident and Stanley Bowles was totally true. I am Peter Brockbank, and what I posted was what occurred. Gordon Jago did make the comment attributed to him, saying Tony Hazell hit the cup with a mis-kick. However this was only said to take away the bad publicity regarding a QPR player being responsible for such a henious crime ! Hope that helps ? Peter Brockbank ( Rushcrew ( talk) 22:41, 1 March 2013 (UTC))
C. Fred, Brian Brendan Wright has never been known as, or called The Monacle. The nick name The Milkman wasn't given to Brian because " he always delivered " or " you had to get up early to catch him out. " Or any other reason that could be attributed to his criminal life. He was given that name because soon after he was married to Josie, they lived above a dairy with Josie's mother. His mother-in -law hearing there was a job going as a milkman suggested to the diary manager Brian should be given he job. One of his mates was there when Brian was told of the vacancy, he laughed and said to Brian " You , a milkman " Brian never took the job but the nick name " The Milkman" stuck. I have known Brian since 1972 when another very good friend Stan Bowles signed for QPR. I email Brian in Whitemoor prison twice a week, and he rings me a couple of times a month. He was on the phone today as it happens. Brian was Stanley's best man when Stanley got married for the third time. I am going to Brian's brother, George's 70'th birthday in April, in Manchester. Everything I have said about either of these people is the truth. Peter Brockbank ( Rushcrew ( talk) 23:01, 1 March 2013 (UTC))
( Rushcrew ( talk))C.Fred You have totally lost me. You say it has to be in a book etc. You show me where the statement that it was suggested that some of the QPR players may have had bets to see who would be first to knock the cup over is in print ? As I said I was only trying to make your reporting more factually accurate. I am a pensioner and I am not used to being treated like a kid. You have a very unhelpful way of talking down to me. Do you need Stanley to verify this ? If things have to be in print, where did Wikipedia get the totally inaccurate statement that Brian Brendan Wright was known as The Monacle ? You have removed that on my say so, yet won't accept other facts I try to tell you. Please clarify for me as I am very confused by your replies, and attitude. ( Rushcrew ( talk) 20:46, 2 March 2013 (UTC))
( Rushcrew ( talk) 18:09, 3 March 2013 (UTC)) C.Fred You seem determined not to give any ground on either point. Stanley's book proves who bet who and exactly what happened. Whatever I say you don't seem capable of admitting I am right. You have fought me every inch when all I wanted to do was clear two mistakes up in the original facts about Stanley Bowles and Brian Brendan Wright. You haven't even acknowledged the fact about his nick name, which is clearly verified in the book, The Wayward Lad. What is the point of people trying to make this place more factually correct, which surely is the idea of people like me contacting this site ? I have found you very pendantic and can't help feeling you use your position to be-litle people like me. Is there anyone above you I contact to take this further, or is your word the law in this matter ? You obviously have let your position go to your head. I can't post on here what I really feel about you as no doubt I would be barred. What I do know you wouldn't last five minutes in my world, the real world. You want to put your head out of the ivory tower you seem to believe you inhabit, and smell the coffee !( Rushcrew ( talk) 18:09, 3 March 2013 (UTC))

The people who want the Truehope post deleted are greatly mistaken. The links that I posted were accurate. I tried posting links to government hearings, Supreme Court decisions, scholarly articles and more. It is really interesting that this site was restarted the very week when the Supreme Court in British Columbia decided that a 27 year-old man who murdered his father and severely injured his mother was taken off his psych. meds and started on Empowerplus.

Dear Author/ C.Fred
My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address edited an article on Epidermolysis bullosa. I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Hydra_Rain and if interested, please visit my Talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance. Hydra Rain ( talk) 09:41, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
User:Pierceybrian22 is back, although technically he has never gone away, frequently making edits with a dynamic IP address. We talked about him previously here. He's created a new account User:Pierceybrian25, and I was hoping you can keep an eye on him. His edits are mostly minor but annoying and usually have to be reverted. He doesn't have any grasp of wikipedia policies, and messages never get through to him. Yet if he's going to edit, I'd rather have him logged on rather than editing with a different IP every month or so. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 20:44, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
Dear Fred:
You deleted my additions re the Psalms page before they were even completed as I was having difficulty getting it to read the way I desired. Your basis is that it doesn't read like an encyclopedia article, but you do not claim to be an expert on the psalms so how would you know what an encylcopdeia article should resd like. Indeed, you and others who admittedly are very pleasant with your communications are in my opinion, abusing your power by placing certain topics on your watch list and for reasons only you know consistently deleting those additions of certain contributora. I spent over a year researching and writing a book about the psalms yet you deem yourself more qualified to judge what the text should state. If you were truly fair and in keeping with the supposed purpose of Wikipedia you and other administrators would be very specific as to what was objectionable in an article and give the contributor the option--if he/she agreed there was a valid point--to modify their addition. Anyway, I will soon add a short addition; I am curious what reason you will come up with this time.

Hi C.Fred. The correct title for the article is " Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" or " Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)"? All other interwikis has the name of the article Pretty Fly (for a White Guy), except the Italian. For is a preposition, should be used with lowercase letter, right? But because of "For" is the first word after the parentheses, must be used with capital letter?
My other doubt is on the article " Cruising California (Bumpin' In My Trunk)". Would the correct move be to " Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk)"? "In" is a preposition, so I think that the correct title is Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk), right? All other interwikis has the name of the article with "Bumpin' in My Trunk" and not with "Bumpin' In My Trunk". The IP 130.65.109.35 moved automatically "Cruising California (Bumpin' In My Trunk)" to "Cruising California (Bumpin' in My Trunk)", but I reverted to preserve the historic of the article.

I am having trouble with a user that keeps adding elimination tables to the article, after we already decided on a consensus that elimination tables are to no longer be added onto the season articles. However, this user does not understand that and keeps adding the tables back. I reverted the user's edit twice now and I'm afraid that if I revert the user's edit one more time, I might break the three-revert rule. Please help, and see what you can do with this user. I even did some constructive edits on that article by adding more content to the "Production" section, but this user keeps reverting my edits. The user is 72.73.85.88. Giggett ( talk) 00:44, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
Looks like the editor 72.73.85.88 is back and this time he has migrated to the List of Total Drama characters article where he has reverted over three weeks of constructive editing back to an old revision from late June and replaced new content with old elimination tables that are already located in the List of Total Drama episodes article. I don't know if this is vandalism, but it looks like the user might be doing the same activity as he did with the Total Drama Wolrd Tour article last week. Giggett ( talk) 16:51, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi...There has been a recent discussion on formatting an elimination table here: Talk:MasterChef_(US_season_3).

Sorry that my info was not "neutral". It is extremely difficult to be neutral when expressing an opinion which differs radically from prior contributors on this subject. Many of the references , for example the gospels etc have been used as source documents to defend positions regarding the existence of a Judean christ. As I know and many other scholars know for a certainty that the so called gospels are not history, but alegory, myth and legend beginning in ancient Egypt, but found in India, and Syria and the Jewish texts predating the so called christian era by hundreds and in many cases thousands of years, it is ridiculous to exclude my comments. But if you are going to exclude them because they are not "neutral" then surely you must exclude all postings using the 'gospels"as a reference since it is plainly material from older sources and the story is patently impossible for anyone of more than limited intellect to accept. Can one select only the material that supports his or her point and dismiss other relevant info from the same source because it conflicts with a point of view held by someone else? I have much more to say on the subject and yes I can support my position with indisputable references. Thank you Kuhnalvin ( talk) 04:54, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Chris!
Several months ago you removed "Link Valley" from the location info of a private school.
The thing is, when talking about places in big cities, one must always identify the neighborhoods, as recognized by reliable sources or by concrete maps of neighborhoods. This Chronicle article states "What's more, classes will begin this fall at the new $13 million Jewish high school, located in Link Valley where crime-ridden apartments once stood. The sprawling campus will include two gymnasiums, soccer fields, computer center and 500-seat theater-style auditorium." - The "Jewish high school" is Emery Weiner.

I wanted to restart a discussion on the Destinee & Paris wiki page. There are new sources that justify them having their own wiki page.

Hello C.Fred, I posted some new sources on Destinee & Paris's talk page. Will you reconsider and open the page for editing? I believe there is enough evidence to get this page up and running and make it accurate. They deserve their own page and it is not accurate to continue to redirect them to the Clique Girlz page. Thanks

Hello,
I was attempting to create an entry for the american folk band Y La Bamba when I found that an earlier entry had already been deleted by you. I would like permission to attempt to create the page again. The last entry was deleted due to "does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject". I believe that my entry will satisfy this condition and that Y La Bamba is a band of large enough significance to deserve its own entry. Y La Bamba currently appears as a dead link on several important wiki entry pages such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Funk, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tender_Loving_Empire, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Sierra_Music_Festival.

Eric B. Hughes article. I fail to understand why this was deleted. There are SO MANY more articles on here that should be nominated for speedy deletion. People began adding hyperlinks and sources to this article. Hughes is a very well know director on the NY indie scene. He's an award-winner, his new film Turnabout is sought after by distribution companies already. I fail to see the logic in the deletion of this page. Wiki baffles me, they want people top contribute, yet when they do- these hyper aggressive people end up deleting such articles....it makes no sense.

Fred, the last I saw was more than 4 people contributing to my article- with hyperlinks and outside sources trying to improve the article. I just don't understand why admins zeroed in on an article that happened to be the one that I created, and Hughes is hardly a director of little or no nobility. He has sold 3 screenplays- his one screenplay won Best Screenplay last year at the Beverly Hills Film Festival. The deletion discussion didn't remain open long- seems like a quick trigger on deleting what was turning into a really good article about a very promising filmmaker. I simply fail to see the logic here. I stumble across many articles on here all the time and is states "being considered for deletion", and they're still here a year later. Give me a break. Your points aren't really that valid. I would like to recreate the article again, and not be targeted. Is this okay? Bellatarr ( talk) 05:37, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

When closing discussions at WP:PUF, please remember to place {{ puf top}} after the section header, not before it as is done at AFD. This tends to work better on discussion pages organized as a daily page for all discussions, as otherwise the closing header is actually located at the end of the previous discussion section (see this, for example). It also confuses the bot that clerks the discussion pages. Thanks! Anomie ⚔ 18:05, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

below the bar for this article?dont think so when you get down to the basic of what the article is all about it boils down to The Million Dollar Mixtape period.Thats one of the most notable thing done by this musician and a page for that has been submitted and denied(by a self admitted newcomer named wywin) because The Toven article has not been accepted.please see link below

The reason I removed those parts from Brad Schneider's page is because those are based on attacks from his opponent Robert Dold not actual hard facts. One of those sections removed was about Brad's business record claiming he received no income, where it was cited from a non-credible biased source. A baseless attack, not a proven fact. Same goes with the sentence about J-Street, where it says Brad is a member and a supporter. He is not a member and he is not endorsed by them. I simply removed them because those are not proven facts, and the citations do not back those claims up. Those sentences on Brad's page were added by someone from his opponent's campaign, and I removed them because they are simply not true.

Hi, I apologize in advance for asking something that has nothing to do with the topic of this article. I am a student of English grammar. Your page got my attention for the many occurrences of similar expressions like "their job is to", all the variations of which I have listed here:
In 1, 3, and 6, you used the qualifying adjective 'main' and 'primary' for the noun; in other cases you did not. But I have an observation: when you say "one's job/function/role/object is to X", you very likely intend for it to mean "one's main/primary job/function/role/object is to X", i.e. the above 6 variations are roughly equivalent in meaning, with or without 'main/primary'. This would mean that if we remove 'main/primary' from 1, 3, and 6 and attach them to 2, 4, and 5, the meaning of the whole article would be intact. In other words, expressions like "one's job is" carries the implication of "one's main/primary job is", if not "one's only/sole job is". The implication can be strong or slight; different people have different perception about its strength. Based on your intuition and intention while writing the article, could you either confirm or deny the existence of such an implication? That'll be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello I see you posted to me and my 'disruptive' editing. Did you happen to notice where I suggested that there be both a basic plot outline summary AND a detailed page for all the other information? as it is done here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enemies_%28Stargate_SG-1%29
This way there is both types of information available. Lots and lots for those who have already seen it and want to know more AND basic plot summaries for those who don't want there show ruined.
I am not randomly vandalizing the articles, I am trying to make both sides happy. AussieLegend does not appear to want to listen to any other solutions, other than quoting policy to me. I hope that you can see the difference in what I'm proposing.
I have proposed this policy change in mediation and have found that more than a few people have this complaint as well. I do not see why it can't be both.

It's a waste of time to attempt to get concensus from a group of mormons about romney. Since a mormon attorney runs wikipedia's board now (or did) and the LDS church pours money hand over fist into the wikimedia foundation, attempting to gain concensus is waste. They will just kibbitz through the LDS church chat room and send legions of meatpuppets to revert. Their articles are like their teachings -- works of fiction.

Dear C.Fred,
You very kindly agreed with my request to amend the North Cyprus page to include a section on the economy and most importantly to notify readers of a highly sensitive 'test' case called Kulaksiz 5, which will determine the fate of thousands of Expats and foreign homebuyers there.
Your agreement, along with one or two other editors, is only in principle, and the request was denied in relation to the current form of my recommendations ″undue weight".
May I make a new suggestion therefore. How about I reduce the impact of the property abuses on the economy to one short paragraph citing the Kulaksiz case, and then have a seperate page on the Kulaksiz 5 case, as did the "orams" case which also was a landmark case there.
That is suggestion 1.
Suggestion 2 would be one short paragraph on the economy part of my recommendation, and one seperate short section on Kulaksiz 5 case. You see, to get agreement from yourself and the other editors, I really need to know what kind of "weight" I should be aiming for. If I not I could see there being a lot of suggested amendments and requests, before anything is actually added. There is a highly important court case on the 29th November (3 days time) which is the opening of the Main Case Kulaksiz 5 residents vs Akfinans Bank, and it would be timely to have some information keeping people up to date on the case and it's proceedings (even if abbreviated updates, ie once sentence)
Thank you for your time on this matter.
Kind regards,

Hello C.Fred, I'm ok with all that you said, but I'm not close to him, just here to help a little bit. Otherwise I know how Wikipedia works now (about the official sources and the other things)and I won't be subjective, I knew that having a neutral point of view would be obligatory even before I created my account. I'm sorry for my basic language I'm actually french and I didn't really know wikipedia before tonight. That's a lot of informations to understand and I'll get them. I already started to put sources on this article, I just hope it won't be deleted when I'll wake up tomorrow morning.

Hello, I am VERY new to Wikipedia. (surprise!) Master Grossman, at the headquarters for Grand Master Dong's dojang, asked me to include Grand Master Dong in the list of Grand Masters of Tae Kwon Do (in Kukkiwon) after I pointed out that he was not on the list. I have his permission to include him and create his page. If I have his permission, how is that a copyright infringement? Is there some kind of statement I need to add to prove I have permission?

This scandal was erroneously marketed by the media, initially, as a "Penn State" scandal. It has since been corrected in the media as the Jerry Sandusky/Second Mile scandal. The fact that some of the incidents allegedly took place at Penn State (note that the JS was not indicted on any of those charges), but that the majority took place elsewhere and the fact that JS was a FORMER coach at Penn State, but worked at the Second Mile during the entire time period, makes your Topic erroneous, and sensationalized.

Hey C. Fred, I made those changes to the Florida pages because no part of Florida is truly tropical, since it sits above the tropics (the tropics lie between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn), with Key West, its southernmost point, at just a few miles north of the Tropic of Cancer. Plus, even South Florida experiences cold snaps as low as 27F with two incidents of snow flurries. This never happens in places that are truly tropical, unless it is on a mountain.

Thanks for reverting the addition again at Jay Westervelt. For now, I'm still forcing myself to assume good faith; but there are multiple accounts whose shared goal appears to be that of a user who is determined to force an identifier of "amateur", or in this case an equivalent word they scraped out of a thesaurus.

Hi Fred,
Thanks for your msg. I want to propose a solution that I think should address the concerns you and a couple of others have referred to. The article www.writingachievement.com/Retention.htm contains pertinent and useful content. If that page were to be recast as a stand alone PDF w no links to the website (or its associated pages) on which it currently appears would that solve the issue? Betsaari ( talk) 17:32, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
Re "not a broad scholarly piece" on the subject. The piece actually does more than describe how one program deals with retention; true, that is how the piece begins. Most of it offers experience based solutions for dealing with the larger problem. Specific things programs can do to avoid the retention/promotion dilemma. The "research" the "scholarship" comes fro the real world; from actual programs and actual experience. Does wikipedia have a policy that de-privileges that sort of content, that kind of contribution? Are we talking about policy or about your opinion of its worth? That's not a sarcastic question; it's an honest one. I can see your issue w links and understand the policy about that now. It seems the pdf w/out links would meet the policy. No? Betsaari ( talk) 22:07, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Fred,
Have left a lengthy response to Barek which followed just below yours; would like you to read it as I cannot reproduce it here. I need guidance as to how to further the conversation; you suggested social promotion talk page but when I went there it seemed like it might be defunct or inactive? Not sure. Betsaari ( talk) 01:06, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
Fred,
It appears that you have created the "dead link" for ref #1 on the above page. That's a start, but the problem is that the link itself is not "dead." The new owner of topschools has kept the original htm page name "/InternationalModel.htm". Click on the link itself; you will see that it is "live." But you will also see that the content is in NO way related to the school or to the page. This is because after selling the domain name last June, I moved the content (InternationalModel.,htm) over to my new domain.
Two things have to be done re the link: either it links to writingachievement.com/InternationalModel.htm, or it goes away (becomes invisible) entirely. I put the link there a number of years ago when I owned topschools; now that link needs to be updated or removed, one or the other.
About a week ago I added new external links as you know. Barek deleted all of those w no advance heads up or discussion, but in doing so, reverted the ref #1 to a link that is now incorrect.
I would like you to do this asap, please. I will check again tonight and if necessary, I will delete ref. #1 myself. I am a little gun shy about doing this because of the nature of some wiki emails communicated to me; but I will do it because it is not "harming" wiki but correcting it. I placed the original link there; I should be able to remove it without fuss. I will "remove" it and not "update" it because it has become clear to me that even though I am the founder of that school, I am not considered a reliable source. Betsaari ( talk) 20:11, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi There and Thanks for the Welcome and Heads up :-)
First my apologies for erasing so abruptly - I meant no disrespect. Second, I am no "pro" Farrokh, but it is not good to be so biased and narrow. I have taken cpurses with Kaveh Farrokh at UBC-Continuing Studies, and UBC does cite him as a historian (Farrokh never said that himself). He is a historian, as well as a clinical counsellor. Also he is affiliated with WAALM whic got a Nobel Peace Prize nomination. All I say is fine, you say "counsellor" but why the silence with this?
Also, no mention of his awards, which is unbalanced. I think the issue is this: whu such emphasis on "counsellor" when even the UBC website cites him as a member of Continuing Studies - ad I was one of his students in 2009 I recall.
Anyhow, many thans for being understanding and so welcoming :-) I look forward to your response :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Faranak888 ( talk • contribs) 01:35, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Betsaari ( talk) 22:23, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
Fred,
Given the links I have shared re marysville a&t, and the refs to the principal's work at other schools, is it time to consider re-adding www.writingachievement.com/InternationalModel.htm to this page as an external link? It's the history of the founding of the school told from a founder's perspective. It is not the article itself, it is a link.
http://www.northkitsapherald.com/news/19747059.html
If you read this article, it also describes involvement in Bellevue International, Lake Washington International and Marysville Arts and Technology. Furthermore, it describes the retention policy at the international schools, which was the subject of the page www.writingachievement.com/Retention.htm that barek deleted from the Wiki Social Promotion page.
Given these third party sources, I am asking you to consider reverting Barek's deletions because the reliable sources (news articles) exist. That means we would reinstate those pages that were deleted, specifically InternationalModel.htm for LW and Bellevue and Retention.htm for the wiki page Social Promotion.
Again, these would be links, not the body of the page. I would think that the body of the page would be encyclopedic in style, but that links from first hand participants, founders or principals would be a useful addendum to an encyclopedia article. For ex., if we found a personal letter from Fredrick Douglass to his wife, would we not include it if it described his exp w slavery, even though, technically he is not a "reliable source" by wp standards? I am reminded of the recent Philip Roth flap. Betsaari ( talk) 22:42, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Fred, A former student of mine created the History of Bellevue International School video which is referenced on the Bellevue International School page. It's a great video. But according to your standards it should not be listed on the page. Why? First, because the questions were created by, and filming done by a student at the school--obviously one too close to the subject; second, it is entirely self-published; third, and most damning, the video interviews teachers who actually founded and worked at the school. They are obviously not reliable sources. Obviously. They definitely have a conflict of interest. Don't you see how silly this is getting? Betsaari ( talk) 00:03, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

It appears that you are one of the main contributors to the Jerry Speziale biography so I thought you should know that a user has recently taken it upon him/herself to delete about 80% of the contents without bothering to discuss it with the contributing editors, or anyone. The reason? "This is an encyclopedia not a biography" which doesn't really make sense because Wikipedia is filled with biographies and many of them are filled with extensive coverage of the person's accomplishments, work history and so forth. I have restored the page to its prior setting, however I thought you might want to keep an eye on the page. The photo gallery section IMO should be placed near the end of the bio. Other than things like that it looks like a well researched and well sourced piece of writing. -- Gwillhickers ( talk) 00:22, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

I undid your translation of " Doppelgänger" ("double-goer") and shortly wanted to explain this:
You wrote that you got this information from the web dictionary http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/doppelg%C3%A4nger
It actually says:
"Origin of DOPPELGÄNGER
German Doppelgänger, from doppel- double + -gänger goer"
BUT THIS DOESN'T MEAN "DOUBLE-GOER" WAS THE RIGHT TRANSLATION!!
The dictionary also gives an example for the usage of Doppelgänger:
"<at the mall today I saw someone who could be your doppelgänger>"
This example is very good, because Doppelgänger is really used in such a context. Of course you will end up with double-goer, if you try to translate it word by word, but languages are far to complicated to do it that way. The German word "Doppelgänger" is only comparable to the English "look-alike" and in some cases "Alter Ego".
Please don't feel attacked - I just wanted to give you some friendly advice... I apologize in advance in case it doesn't sound as friendly as I wanted it to.
Kind regards!

Hi C.Fred, I understand that Wikipedia wants to keep their pages limited to what is generally considered popular enough..and I understand that there are way too many bands in existence to allow every independent non-signed band a page section in Wikipedia..but I do believe there are a number of non-signed bands out there who are worth mentioning simply due to the success they have managed to achieve. I am certain that Orange Grove is more popular than many bands out there who are actually signed, plus they have managed to stick around for over ten years and continue to release high quality productions in both song and video. I live in The Hague and have been to many of their concerts in this city and others. I have seen the draw crowds of over 1000 here. When they have performed on certain islands in the Caribbean they have also drawn upwards of 1000 to a concert and on those islands their music can be heard regularly on most of the local radio stations.
Is there no exception for bands that are not signed to a label? I can show you many examples of bands that are signed and do not have half the fans that Orange Grove does.

C Fred, I know that you have been active in the Florida-Georgia football rivalry discussions in the past. A random IP user has been making historically inaccurate edits to the Georgia Bulldogs football article regarding the number of national championships won and/or claimed by the Georgia program. The usual editors with an affinity for UGA-related subjects, including Jhortman, have not been active since the holidays. In their absence, I would ask that you intercede with the IP. I've reverted his edits at least three times over the past several days, and I am afraid the situation might escalate given my history of editing Florida Gators-related articles and the inevitable name-calling an bias accusations begin.

It has been cited, linked, and a copyright release posted on the media website page at the bottom of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.247.185.193 ( talk) 21:33, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
Would you be willing to talk with User:MRCCR? They're completely unwilling to listen to anything I say to them, and they're constantly reverting every edit I make to the page because my edits are apparently 'destructive'. I think they might listen better to someone that isn't, you know, me. -- TKK bark ! 06:01, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, C.Fred. There seems to be more sockpuppets of Sakaisinai7. User:Wane43 and user:Qwedfgvbn made edits to ExxonMobil which follows the above-mentioned sockpuppeteer edit pattern. Same applies to user:Dante43 and user:James00723 edits to ITC Limited. Beagel ( talk) 16:01, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi C. Fred,
I'm new to editing wikipedia and just signed up to make sure my company, Gaia Interactive - the creator of Gaia Online, has the most up-to-date corporate website address in the company information box, so I hope you don't mind helping a new user sort this out:
I'm not sure how I can prove that we have a new website unless I site the new website (which seems a little redundant). What do you suggest? Feel free to go on the website and check. Gaia Online is the final listing here: http://gaiainteractive.com/games/.
Thanks! Goatsgoatsgoats ( talk) 20:20, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
Okay, but the box in the corner is about our company, not our game. It talks about our CEO, number of employees, headquarters, etc. It doesn't make sense that it switches contexts just for the very last line. Please advise. Goatsgoatsgoats ( talk) 18:21, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi, C.Fred. User "Pacific Coast Highway" (from Brooklyn) is obviously deleting all links but to his own "OpenBVE.org" (which by the way does include a "forum" in violation of your stated policy). The several links which I attempted to reinstate, are long standing in the BVE/OpenBVE community (unlike the recent upstart OpenBVE.org) and does include critical documents and addons for user and developers, which PCH keeps deleting. Please, understand this and give user PCH appropriate warning for promoting personal websites and inappropriately deleting competing links. And allow me to reinstate the links, excepting those which include forums, per your stated policy.

Dear C Fred, Your rejection of my edited material is unwarranted. All aspects of MY own resume and bio, from all website sources, including, but not limited to IMDb, EGTVN, SCBWU,M etc.. are owned, authored, validated and all rights of my self written resume belong only and solely to me. I AM PIPER DELLUMS, so who else would own the rights to my bio? Not a website. My bio information was added from MY written work about MYSELF. So, if you actually are intent on supplying factual information about me, or anyone else, I (we) are the best sources of our own lives and accomplishments. Thank you for clearing this up, and returning my edit of MYSELF to the Wikipedia information concerning ME, and MY life.

I contacted Society of Children's Book Writers & Illustrators President-and he has NO idea what or who you are referring to. His letter is as follows: Hi Piper--this is the first we have heard of this--we have no intention of owning anyone's bios--we do, of course want to protect the content on our site, but I don't know what Wikipedia refers to---if you can find out, or guess what they would need from us in order to release your bio, let us know and we will write it up for you to send them--best wishes, Steve

I don't want my every article to be deleted so please restore it.

Hello there. You commented on my article regarding the notability of the Maayan Torah Day School. It is the first article I've written and I'm not sure what the procedure is for responding to you; do I do it here or in the article? You wrote that demonstrating notability would probably require showing that the school "has gotten coverage in reliable sources outside Portland." The school has had write-ups in various Jewish publications. Here are links to an article in the Jewish Review and a case study from the Orthodox Union. Here is a link to an explanatory blurb on the OU's case studies on day school affordability initiatives. I'm also including a link to an article in the Portland Tribune that is in a similar vein to the OU case study and further displays Maayan's notability. I can track down some more write ups if you think I ought to. I really appreciate your going over my article and would also appreciate any more advice on what my next step should be. Thanks so much for your help! Desire Ducks ( talk) 23:02, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi CFred. I saw that you were active on the Talk page of Yelp, Inc. and wanted to let you know I'll be working with Yelp to help them improve the page from Talk. I also pinged User:Wikidemon, who has responded to many of the strings on the article's Talk page, though I noticed he hasn't been logged in much recently. You can see an example of my approach to COI on the Talk page of RTI International (aka Research Triangle Institute). I just thought I would introduce myself and gauge your interest in collaborating on the Yelp page.
PS - if you are still in the research triangle (your user page says you graduated from NC State) we're neighbors. I think Dennis Brown and Drmies are locals too. CorporateM ( Talk) 03:46, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

FYI the article creator took the deletion tag down one other time, and put a warning on his talk page. He's removed the tag twice in all. ...William 02:33, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
I was looking though the report, and apparently he was warned about getting consensus on the talk page two days ago, and he ignored it and kept on revert warring, so I did the 31 hour block, but by the time I was about to close the edit warring discussion, I noticed you looked at it first and gave him a warning. I think it's better to give him a 31 hour time out as he was warned. Looks like one of those nationalist single purpose accounts anyways. Secret account 18:02, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Dear Fred,
I think the wiki article should reflect the facts in the NEJM letter below. I tried to summarize those facts and state their implication regarding B&Ls selective use of the data in their advertising. Not sure why you've removed my addition.
N Engl J Med 2008; 359:1735-1736October 16, 2008DOI: 10.1056/NEJMc081470
To the Editor: The review of age-related macular degeneration by Jager et al. (June 12 issue)1 does not refer to an editorial accompanying the report of the Age-Related Eye Disease Study (AREDS) in the Archives of Ophthalmology in 2001 and two subsequent letters,2-4 all of which criticized the study analysis for setting aside a negative result in which dietary supplementation with high doses of vitamins and minerals was ineffective and instead reporting on a subgroup in which the result was positive. The investigators argued that the excluded patients had too few end points to be eligible for treatment. However, the group of patients who received the supplement had greater disease progression and provided valuable data regarding early intervention.
Discarding prespecified negative analyses and reporting on positive subgroup analyses has been repeatedly discouraged.5 The omission of the above information perpetuates the myth that the supplement used in the AREDS was effective, at the price of a treatment that has no benefit and carries undetermined risks.
Daniel Seigel, Sc.D. [redacted]

B&L advertising:
So the product, according to AREDS, prevents the progression of disease, but it is not intended to prevent any disease?
The studies conclusions can be questioned and the article in wiki should reflect this. It might also add the caveat that clinical studies supported by drug companies might not be valid, especially when those drug companies plan to use the results in their advertising.

Good day! I am deeply sorry for breaking the three revert rule. May I ask you to pay a little attention for the section "External links" of [6] In "Talk" page, section "Mods and unofficial patches", [7] states "I removed most of the "unofficial patches" section, leaving the first paragraph since it was backed up by a reliable source", referring to [8] as a reliable source and deleting link to the unofficial patch of modder [9] because this is unreliable source. The problem is that a protected by [10] link [11], titled as "Unofficial patch" is a selection of different mods, choosed by [12] depending on their preferences. Therefore one unofficial patch [13] is denied(though it's created by acknowledged author- [14]), while another is promoting, thus violating "Tendentious editing" rule. It is also feeding the warring between rival modders. That's why I am considering my last editing as a prudent one: the link to [15] should be titled as [16] site's page, not as a link to supposedly one and the only mod/patch(thus advertising it). Thank you for your time! Dazkalt ( talk) 16:35, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

I was born about the same time and grew up there going to Piedmont schools and he was unknown there 100% until he became famous and moved there. There are no hospitals or ANY medical related facilities in Piedmont then or now-not one- so was it a home birth? It is clearly a falsehood and needs to be changed asap.

Fred The point I made about the FA Cup incident and Stanley Bowles was totally true. I am Peter Brockbank, and what I posted was what occurred. Gordon Jago did make the comment attributed to him, saying Tony Hazell hit the cup with a mis-kick. However this was only said to take away the bad publicity regarding a QPR player being responsible for such a henious crime ! Hope that helps ? Peter Brockbank ( Rushcrew ( talk) 22:41, 1 March 2013 (UTC))
C. Fred, Brian Brendan Wright has never been known as, or called The Monacle. The nick name The Milkman wasn't given to Brian because " he always delivered " or " you had to get up early to catch him out. " Or any other reason that could be attributed to his criminal life. He was given that name because soon after he was married to Josie, they lived above a dairy with Josie's mother. His mother-in -law hearing there was a job going as a milkman suggested to the diary manager Brian should be given he job. One of his mates was there when Brian was told of the vacancy, he laughed and said to Brian " You , a milkman " Brian never took the job but the nick name " The Milkman" stuck. I have known Brian since 1972 when another very good friend Stan Bowles signed for QPR. I email Brian in Whitemoor prison twice a week, and he rings me a couple of times a month. He was on the phone today as it happens. Brian was Stanley's best man when Stanley got married for the third time. I am going to Brian's brother, George's 70'th birthday in April, in Manchester. Everything I have said about either of these people is the truth. Peter Brockbank ( Rushcrew ( talk) 23:01, 1 March 2013 (UTC))
( Rushcrew ( talk))C.Fred You have totally lost me. You say it has to be in a book etc. You show me where the statement that it was suggested that some of the QPR players may have had bets to see who would be first to knock the cup over is in print ? As I said I was only trying to make your reporting more factually accurate. I am a pensioner and I am not used to being treated like a kid. You have a very unhelpful way of talking down to me. Do you need Stanley to verify this ? If things have to be in print, where did Wikipedia get the totally inaccurate statement that Brian Brendan Wright was known as The Monacle ? You have removed that on my say so, yet won't accept other facts I try to tell you. Please clarify for me as I am very confused by your replies, and attitude. ( Rushcrew ( talk) 20:46, 2 March 2013 (UTC))
( Rushcrew ( talk) 18:09, 3 March 2013 (UTC)) C.Fred You seem determined not to give any ground on either point. Stanley's book proves who bet who and exactly what happened. Whatever I say you don't seem capable of admitting I am right. You have fought me every inch when all I wanted to do was clear two mistakes up in the original facts about Stanley Bowles and Brian Brendan Wright. You haven't even acknowledged the fact about his nick name, which is clearly verified in the book, The Wayward Lad. What is the point of people trying to make this place more factually correct, which surely is the idea of people like me contacting this site ? I have found you very pendantic and can't help feeling you use your position to be-litle people like me. Is there anyone above you I contact to take this further, or is your word the law in this matter ? You obviously have let your position go to your head. I can't post on here what I really feel about you as no doubt I would be barred. What I do know you wouldn't last five minutes in my world, the real world. You want to put your head out of the ivory tower you seem to believe you inhabit, and smell the coffee !( Rushcrew ( talk) 18:09, 3 March 2013 (UTC))
