Hi - "made up the stuff"? That makes it sound as though she was being dishonest, and you shouldn't say that about anyone in an edit summary. Still, I'm curious what you meant. Doug Weller talk 17:19, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
[1] You are obviously out of your depth in this area, and I suggest you leave it alone. See the bibliography at the BM. To suggest that numerous examples of spoons with holes in the bowl are normal decoration is rather obviously silly. Johnbod ( talk) 17:20, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
Requesting to restore the page Emily Borromeo, which you deleted. She is an actress on NBC, hosting the show Sunny Side Up, one of the most popular morning shows in pre-school television. I believe that is significant enough to warrant a wikipedia page. She appears in many youtube videos for the channel as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.111.111.152 ( talk) 19:36, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

The point is your editing out someone's ethnic history. Cher is a known Cherokee woman, and all the references on the page reference that, and this is her son, so obviously that would be included. I noticed your other edits are also blatantly racist, and I find it offensive, so find something else to do with your time then removing one of North America's most outstanding Indigenous icons child's heritage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.97.246.55 ( talk) 02:20, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi,
I just stumbled over your dispute with an IP over the Cherokee ancestry of Elijah Blue Allman. While I don't know what his actual ancestry is, I think it is undisputed that he is the son of Cher and therefore her genetic background is scientifically speaking by default also his. Therefore if his mother has a Cherokee ancestry, as stated in her article supported by references like this article in People ( http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20110424,00.html), than it must be also true for him (from a genetic point of view). Either both have Cherokee ancestors or none of them has and you should either delete this statement also in her article if you think that it isn't supported by enough reliable sources or re-add it to his article (with the sources from Cher's article) in order to be consistent.

CorbieVreccan writes,
"Your recent edit to the page Cultural appropriation appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Sources have to actually source the content you add."
In case you are not familiar with it, I think you'll find that the Online Etymology Dictionary / Etymonline.com is highly reliable.
However if you require an even higher authority, here is the best:
The Oxford English Dictionary (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1989) volume 4, page 121 (for 'cultural'), and volume 1, page 587 (for 'appropriation').
Is this satisfactory now?
If you like, I can scan or photograph the pages in question, and post or send them.
Alternatively, you can consult any ordinary 'desk dictionary' or 'collegiate dictionary', and you will see that the word 'cultural' comes from Latin 'cultura', and that 'appropriation' comes from Latin 'appropriare', 'appropriatus'.
Thank you.

Dear User:CorbieVreccan. Your User:CorbieVreccan/Admin Toolbox page is on overflow, due to the actual backlogs at {{ WP:UFAA}}. You could fix this problem (and help us to empty the Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded ) by replacing the imperative transclusion {{ WP:UFAA}} by a conditional one, like

Hi@ CorbieVreccan:- Thank you for your welcome. I am confused by your advice about editing comments on Talk:Indigenous Peoples of North America, though.. The edit you refer to is simply the removal of a student assignment working with Wiki Ed and was performed from the Wiki Ed dashboard that give instructors permissions to add and remove student assignments. The student in question did not end up working with this article, so it doesn't make sense to leave that assignment. I am posting this on your Talk page as well. This is beginning to feel spiteful. Matthewvetter ( talk) 19:26, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for protecting this article. Although, it appears to have broken the template. I did an edit in hopes of fixing it. You might check and make sure I did not make things worse. Thanks. -- Kansas Bear ( talk) 00:27, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Hello, thanks for messaging me about your deletion of the Template:John Hampden New Freedom Party/meta/color and Template:John Hampden New Freedom Party/meta/shortname pages. However, I believe this is the wrong move. These were not tests and were used to fill information in the February 1974 general election box for Lewisham East (UK Parliament constituency), which is now broken. I am not amending it at this point as I'd like you to revert this deletion.
I'd also like to point that this template is similar in style to every other templates used for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Politics of the United Kingdom at Wikipedia:Index of United Kingdom political parties meta attributes. You'll also note that this page says: "Where the same colour has been allocated to more than one party this indicates that the groups are related to one another (either in organisational or political terms) and are believed to have either contested elections in different periods or different geographical areas." The John Hampden New Freedom Party is a predecessor of the English National Party and therefore uses the same colour as that group.
Please consider all this information and revert your decision, which I believe was made mistakenly, but should de speedily rectified. -- JMPhillips92 ( talk) 09:35, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Your comments at Chameleon AfD, "It was just about to be deleted via prod but then a driveby, mass de-prodder removed it without making improvements." are off topic and baseless. I am a WP:PRODPATROLler and I'm getting to these late in the 7-day cycle not because I'm trying to ambush anyone but because of backlog and limited participation in the project.

Hi CorbieVreccan! Assuming you're right about John Pope aka Rolling Thunder not being Native American, we need to find some RS to that effect, especially if we're going to exclude claims to the contrary from sources that seem otherwise OK. See WP:NOTTRUTH, and all that. Googling, there are a lot of dubious sources repeating the claims that he was Native, so a well-sourced WP article could help dispel that misconception.
Curious aside: I've heard a couple snippets of Pope/RT speaking and he uses an accent that is very similar to accents I've heard from Native Americans, e.g. a man I saw gave a talk near Four Corners some years agp. Is that an affectation, I wonder? Happy editing, -- Middle 8 ( t • c | privacy • COI) 06:09, 18 April 2016 (UTC) ce 08:43, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello CorbieVreccan ... I just noticed that you made a major revision to Rainbow Gathering on 14 April, 2016. You deleted the entire "List of gatherings" section at the end of the article due to no citations since Feb, 2014. I do understand the reason you did this and have no argument with it. My concern is that this section of the article has long been used by myself and many others as the best place to reference this info on the Internet and I would like to see it return. I am just wondering how this can best be done without risking yet another reversion by you or another editor? There were well over 100 listings of Rainbow Gatherings that have occurred worldwide since 1972 in this section. I have done many edits to Wiki articles over the past 10 yrs however I am by no means an expert on Wiki. Can you please give me some guidance on this? Do we need to go find a news article for every single one of those Rainbow Gatherings or is there some easier way to reinstate this section? Unfortunately I know of no single scholarly source for the entire list. I really need some guidance here. I would like the article to comply with Wiki rules. I just don't know how to best do that. I do know that the information that was deleted was 95%+ accurate. Thank you for any guidance you can provide.-- Htfiddler ( talk) 02:22, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
Corbie, I looked at the two versions on your link. I didn't notice this initially. I think what happened is I pasted my signature, when I meant to copy something that you had written. This was unintentional. I didn't mean to, nor was I trying to alter your text. Sorry for the mistake. Probably just hit CTRL+V when I wanted CTRL+C. Just to let you know, whatever disagreements we might have, I an not the kind of person to maliciously edit stuff on your page, mine, or on article talk pages. I also left you a note on my page about this. joseph_setorius ☊ ☼ 19:43, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Verum-ipsum ( talk) 13:25, 19 May 2016 (UTC)I am trying to correct the entry for the above-mentioned subject due to erroneous information. Basil Frederick Heath was born in England on 18 March 1917, at 38 Somerleyton Road, in Lambeth, London. He was born Basil Frederick Amorim, and is recorded in the England and Wales Birth Index 1916-2005, Quarter Q2, Lambeth, Vol 1d, p 611; 1917, mother's name is listed as D'Amoreni due to a transcription error; an amended birth certificate from 1934 lists Andrew Cleve Heath as his father -- the entry has the exact same volume number Vol 1d, but under the "H" page at the bottom shows: "Heath, Basil F., mother maiden name d'Amoreni, V1d, see S/34". The Wikipedia entry has a lot of erroneous and unconfirmed information on it. I am presently working with another person with whom you have spoken on a wordpress page to correct this and many other things with all the necessary documents. Thank you for your patience as I am a first time user learning the ropes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Verum-ipsum ( talk • contribs) 18:21, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Why do you keep re-editing Serena Williams' biographical article in a disruptive and negative manner?? Most of the wording and grammar doesn't make any sense and you are putting her Grand Slam achievements at the bottom of the page. Achievements of an athlete should follow immediately after the name introduction, as it with most tennis players, but you have decided to put Serena's achievements on a lower paragraph where users cannot see it, which only makes me conclude that you are a racist! And you NEED to get your facts right -- Serena Williams is WIDELY regarded as the greatest female tennis player of all time. Not just by "some" commentators and sports writers, as you would like.

Your description of smudge sticks is completely biased and erroneous. Your description is very prejudiced toward native Americans, and does not give an unbiased viewpoint regarding smudge sticks and their manufacture or use. For example your statement "commercial smudge stick makers do not use the same materials..." is complete nonsense (why are you stating that commercial harvesters for smudge sticks do not use the same materials, that is completely untrue and shows bias and prejudice... commercial harvesters / growers use white sage WHICH IS what native Americans use (reference the USDA PLANT GUIDE regarding white sage...). This is just one example, there are numerous others in your un-informed write-up that shows prejudice... such as your statement that native american harvesters are the only ones that understand the plant cycles (best time to harvest etc), COMPLETE NONSENSE, some harvesters understand the plant very well, and use sustainable harvest practices that allow successful harvests YEAR AFTER YEAR.

You edits regarding primary sources on JL [4], [5] do not conform to the definition of a primary source. Please read WP:PRIMARY to refresh yourself of the primary/secondary source policies and definitions. A primary source is original material written by people closely involved to an event/subject. A secondary source is from an author one step removed from an event and providing their own analysis from primary events. Secondary sources rely on primary sources for their material. The articles you appear to have a problem with, are secondary sources, that are archived in his website as they are not readily available online elsewhere, although they have been published independently in other media.

The point is your editing out someone's ethnic history. Cher is a known Cherokee woman, and all the references on the page reference that, and this is her son, so obviously that would be included. I noticed your other edits are also blatantly racist, and I find it offensive, so find something else to do with your time then removing one of North America's most outstanding Indigenous icons child's heritage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.97.246.55 ( talk) 02:20, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi,
I just stumbled over your dispute with an IP over the Cherokee ancestry of Elijah Blue Allman. While I don't know what his actual ancestry is, I think it is undisputed that he is the son of Cher and therefore her genetic background is scientifically speaking by default also his. Therefore if his mother has a Cherokee ancestry, as stated in her article supported by references like this article in People ( http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20110424,00.html), than it must be also true for him (from a genetic point of view). Either both have Cherokee ancestors or none of them has and you should either delete this statement also in her article if you think that it isn't supported by enough reliable sources or re-add it to his article (with the sources from Cher's article) in order to be consistent.

"Your recent edit to the page Cultural appropriation appears to have added incorrect information, so I have removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Sources have to actually source the content you add."
In case you are not familiar with it, I think you'll find that the Online Etymology Dictionary / Etymonline.com is highly reliable.
However if you require an even higher authority, here is the best:
The Oxford English Dictionary (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1989) volume 4, page 121 (for 'cultural'), and volume 1, page 587 (for 'appropriation').
Is this satisfactory now?
If you like, I can scan or photograph the pages in question, and post or send them.
Alternatively, you can consult any ordinary 'desk dictionary' or 'collegiate dictionary', and you will see that the word 'cultural' comes from Latin 'cultura', and that 'appropriation' comes from Latin 'appropriare', 'appropriatus'.
Thank you.

Dear User:CorbieVreccan. Your User:CorbieVreccan/Admin Toolbox page is on overflow, due to the actual backlogs at {{ WP:UFAA}}. You could fix this problem (and help us to empty the Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded ) by replacing the imperative transclusion {{ WP:UFAA}} by a conditional one, like
{{ #ifexpr: {{PAGESIZE: WP:Usernames for administrator attention |R}} > 10000 | <div class="NavFrame"><div class="NavHead" style="background-color:{{{color|#A7D7F9}}}"> [[WP:Usernames for administrator attention]].

Hi@ CorbieVreccan:- Thank you for your welcome. I am confused by your advice about editing comments on Talk:Indigenous Peoples of North America, though.. The edit you refer to is simply the removal of a student assignment working with Wiki Ed and was performed from the Wiki Ed dashboard that give instructors permissions to add and remove student assignments. The student in question did not end up working with this article, so it doesn't make sense to leave that assignment. I am posting this on your Talk page as well. This is beginning to feel spiteful. Matthewvetter ( talk) 19:26, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for protecting this article. Although, it appears to have broken the template. I did an edit in hopes of fixing it. You might check and make sure I did not make things worse. Thanks. -- Kansas Bear ( talk) 00:27, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Hello, thanks for messaging me about your deletion of the Template:John Hampden New Freedom Party/meta/color and Template:John Hampden New Freedom Party/meta/shortname pages. However, I believe this is the wrong move. These were not tests and were used to fill information in the February 1974 general election box for Lewisham East (UK Parliament constituency), which is now broken. I am not amending it at this point as I'd like you to revert this deletion.
I'd also like to point that this template is similar in style to every other templates used for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Politics of the United Kingdom at Wikipedia:Index of United Kingdom political parties meta attributes. You'll also note that this page says: "Where the same colour has been allocated to more than one party this indicates that the groups are related to one another (either in organisational or political terms) and are believed to have either contested elections in different periods or different geographical areas." The John Hampden New Freedom Party is a predecessor of the English National Party and therefore uses the same colour as that group.
Please consider all this information and revert your decision, which I believe was made mistakenly, but should de speedily rectified. -- JMPhillips92 ( talk) 09:35, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Your comments at Chameleon AfD, "It was just about to be deleted via prod but then a driveby, mass de-prodder removed it without making improvements." are off topic and baseless. I am a WP:PRODPATROLler and I'm getting to these late in the 7-day cycle not because I'm trying to ambush anyone but because of backlog and limited participation in the project.

Hi CorbieVreccan! Assuming you're right about John Pope aka Rolling Thunder not being Native American, we need to find some RS to that effect, especially if we're going to exclude claims to the contrary from sources that seem otherwise OK. See WP:NOTTRUTH, and all that. Googling, there are a lot of dubious sources repeating the claims that he was Native, so a well-sourced WP article could help dispel that misconception.
Curious aside: I've heard a couple snippets of Pope/RT speaking and he uses an accent that is very similar to accents I've heard from Native Americans, e.g. a man I saw gave a talk near Four Corners some years agp. Is that an affectation, I wonder? Happy editing, -- Middle 8 ( t • c | privacy • COI) 06:09, 18 April 2016 (UTC) ce 08:43, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
Could you take another look at Mi'kmaq and see if semi-protection is needed again. Based on the discussion at Talk:Mi'kmaq#Stop adding the bullshit word "Aboriginal" between myself and Indigenous girl a few days ago I made this change.

Hello CorbieVreccan ... I just noticed that you made a major revision to Rainbow Gathering on 14 April, 2016. You deleted the entire "List of gatherings" section at the end of the article due to no citations since Feb, 2014. I do understand the reason you did this and have no argument with it. My concern is that this section of the article has long been used by myself and many others as the best place to reference this info on the Internet and I would like to see it return. I am just wondering how this can best be done without risking yet another reversion by you or another editor? There were well over 100 listings of Rainbow Gatherings that have occurred worldwide since 1972 in this section. I have done many edits to Wiki articles over the past 10 yrs however I am by no means an expert on Wiki. Can you please give me some guidance on this? Do we need to go find a news article for every single one of those Rainbow Gatherings or is there some easier way to reinstate this section? Unfortunately I know of no single scholarly source for the entire list. I really need some guidance here. I would like the article to comply with Wiki rules. I just don't know how to best do that. I do know that the information that was deleted was 95%+ accurate. Thank you for any guidance you can provide.-- Htfiddler ( talk) 02:22, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
Corbie, I looked at the two versions on your link. I didn't notice this initially. I think what happened is I pasted my signature, when I meant to copy something that you had written. This was unintentional. I didn't mean to, nor was I trying to alter your text. Sorry for the mistake. Probably just hit CTRL+V when I wanted CTRL+C. Just to let you know, whatever disagreements we might have, I an not the kind of person to maliciously edit stuff on your page, mine, or on article talk pages. I also left you a note on my page about this. joseph_setorius ☊ ☼ 19:43, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Verum-ipsum ( talk) 13:25, 19 May 2016 (UTC)I am trying to correct the entry for the above-mentioned subject due to erroneous information. Basil Frederick Heath was born in England on 18 March 1917, at 38 Somerleyton Road, in Lambeth, London. He was born Basil Frederick Amorim, and is recorded in the England and Wales Birth Index 1916-2005, Quarter Q2, Lambeth, Vol 1d, p 611; 1917, mother's name is listed as D'Amoreni due to a transcription error; an amended birth certificate from 1934 lists Andrew Cleve Heath as his father -- the entry has the exact same volume number Vol 1d, but under the "H" page at the bottom shows: "Heath, Basil F., mother maiden name d'Amoreni, V1d, see S/34". The Wikipedia entry has a lot of erroneous and unconfirmed information on it. I am presently working with another person with whom you have spoken on a wordpress page to correct this and many other things with all the necessary documents. Thank you for your patience as I am a first time user learning the ropes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Verum-ipsum ( talk • contribs) 18:21, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Why do you keep re-editing Serena Williams' biographical article in a disruptive and negative manner?? Most of the wording and grammar doesn't make any sense and you are putting her Grand Slam achievements at the bottom of the page. Achievements of an athlete should follow immediately after the name introduction, as it with most tennis players, but you have decided to put Serena's achievements on a lower paragraph where users cannot see it, which only makes me conclude that you are a racist! And you NEED to get your facts right -- Serena Williams is WIDELY regarded as the greatest female tennis player of all time. Not just by "some" commentators and sports writers, as you would like.

Your description of smudge sticks is completely biased and erroneous. Your description is very prejudiced toward native Americans, and does not give an unbiased viewpoint regarding smudge sticks and their manufacture or use. For example your statement "commercial smudge stick makers do not use the same materials..." is complete nonsense (why are you stating that commercial harvesters for smudge sticks do not use the same materials, that is completely untrue and shows bias and prejudice... commercial harvesters / growers use white sage WHICH IS what native Americans use (reference the USDA PLANT GUIDE regarding white sage...). This is just one example, there are numerous others in your un-informed write-up that shows prejudice... such as your statement that native american harvesters are the only ones that understand the plant cycles (best time to harvest etc), COMPLETE NONSENSE, some harvesters understand the plant very well, and use sustainable harvest practices that allow successful harvests YEAR AFTER YEAR. These COMMERCIAL harvest practices actually improve the plants health and vitality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gvick2002 ( talk • contribs) 18:18, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

A secondary source is from an author one step removed from an event and providing their own analysis from primary events. Secondary sources rely on primary sources for their material. The articles you appear to have a problem with, are secondary sources, that are archived in his website as they are not readily available online elsewhere, although they have been published independently in other media.
