All of the sources provided are extremely flimsy and the majority of sources used are blogs. If you try to verify a source you'll find circular sources. I have not been able to find any real historical record of the Kray Twins (despite the ridiculous claims of infamy)... or any of the fictitious characters which are directly connected with the 2014 movie "Bronson" or the new movie being made about the Kray Twins. This isn't the first time a wikipedia hoax was used to hype up a movie.

Hello, Dwpaul! I hope you are well.
I tried to update the external links section with a link to the Authors on the Air page for The Authentic Woman, and I thought I had deleted the extra sub-links in that section (that are actually sources to verify a statement in the next to last paragraph on the [Shannon Fisher] page), but they are still there in the external links section. Perhaps the problem is that the sources have not yet been approved? Or did I do something wrong? (I'm assuming it is the latter - LOL)
I also removed the orphan note at the top of the page because the Shannon Fisher page is now linked from the [UniteWomen.org] page twice (I had permission to update it, and I added several things to their page). I hope it is okay that I removed the orphan note.
Thanks so much, and have a great day!

Greetings. You warned someone with the IP address, 2601:A:3680:CAD:4924:24DC:B3F:444E about disruptive editing of a wrestling article at this "talk" page: /info/en/?search=User_talk:2601:A:3680:CAD:4924:24DC:B3F:444E. The editor subsequently made an unsubstantiated POV edit @ Denis Tsargush, which I undid. Nearly a month later, a similar but not identical IP address, he made a similar edit, which I've undone. It seems to me that both addresses are candidates for blocking at this point, and your substantial credentials make you look like someone to get the ball rolling.
Whatever happens, I've never seen an address like it, and if you know what it is (and I'm betting on that), I'd appreciate you sending me a brief explanation, thank you. Also note: this individual was 'clever' enough to use a slight variant of the 'original' address to make the second bogus edit.
Ironically, I'm a fan of the wrestler he's talking up in the 'Tsargush' article, and I suspect he's correct--but unwilling to abide by the rules. The wrestler in question is a 'Jersey boy,' like me. Go figure.
Thanks for all the good work you do here. Regards Tapered ( talk) 06:53, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

To wit: Many, such as writer Quinton Wiktorowicz, urge use of the term Salafi, maintaining that "one would be hard pressed to find individuals who refer to themselves as Wahhabis or organizations that use 'Wahhabi' in their title, or refer to their ideology in this manner (unless they are speaking to a Western audience that is unfamiliar with Islamic terminology, and even then usage is limited and often appears as 'Salafi/Wahhabi')."

Hi DwPaul,
I'm not exactly sure how to technically go about adding the references you mentioned. If you asked Jennie, Emma, Garrett, Alexxa and the many other entertainers the contribution my mom has left on their life, it would be enormous. She literally connected them from a small town to major gateways to their careers. This is on the Internet, all over. Therefore, it's common to find on the Internet. Google Jean Fowler and Jenny Garth or Garrett Hedlund or Emma Stone or Allexxa Havins and those always credit to her assistance. I'm not sure how to cite (I've never donw this before), and want to see that it's on their for her grand children. Would you be willing to help me contribute these since you know a lot more about than I do?
Thank you!
Tom Strong — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tefstrong ( talk • contribs) 04:02, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply and pointers on how to cite the pages. It's complicated the because, for example, Jenny Garth indicates her training experience but it's in an aubiography on Google Books. Garrett Hedlunds has many stories linked to him working to pay for acting lessons from my mom. But there is so much wiki jargon and citation etiquette.

Dear Dwpaul, I just recently took a look at my Wikipedia page and there is so much about me that's missing. The fact that I'm a great host the things I do in the community and the Awards that I have been given. Yes I have made mistakes but when people look me up I dont want them to see just that. I tried to correct even the way I started my career. My song was just a freestyle I did on my way to the laundry it had nothing to do with radio stations. And UTFO didn't come up with a roxanne until they saw the success I was having. I have done projects with many Artists I have been sampled more than any other voice in hiphop on projects like Janet Jackson, Blackeye peas , j Cole, Nas I have been on other many soundtracks and too many complications to count.

Category:Veterans of Foreign Wars was created for articles related to the VFW organization in the United States, not for any biography articles on a soldier who served in a different country. The main article is Veterans of Foreign Wars, it's parent categories are organizational, it's spelling is capitalized, and the content is clearly VFW. The main editor of the VFW article got a little carried away with applying the category, albeit in good faith. According to the sourced article, Truman wa a member but it doesn't seem to be defining enough to pass WP:NON-DEFINING or WP:COPDEF. If you want to add a new veteran's category, I have no objection. I want to make sure we avoid an (unintentional) edit war based on a misunderstanding of the category. If you still disagree, please tag me so we can discuss further. Thanks.

I understand the temptation to revert an editor who repeatedly adds unsourced material to an article, but you're not entitled to violate WP:3RR in doing so, which you did. I blocked the other editor, but, frankly, the main reason I didn't block you as well was because of the crude personal attack the user made on his Talk page. Nonethelesss, consider this a warning that if I see you do something like this again, you risk being blocked, and I'd hate to do that as I can see you're an experienced long-term editor with a clean block log. But for that same reason, you should know better.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 05:46, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps the problem is that the sources have not yet been approved? Or did I do something wrong? (I'm assuming it is the latter - LOL)
I also removed the orphan note at the top of the page because the Shannon Fisher page is now linked from the [UniteWomen.org] page twice (I had permission to update it, and I added several things to their page). I hope it is okay that I removed the orphan note.
Thanks so much, and have a great day!

Greetings. You warned someone with the IP address, 2601:A:3680:CAD:4924:24DC:B3F:444E about disruptive editing of a wrestling article at this "talk" page: /info/en/?search=User_talk:2601:A:3680:CAD:4924:24DC:B3F:444E. The editor subsequently made an unsubstantiated POV edit @ Denis Tsargush, which I undid. Nearly a month later, a similar but not identical IP address, he made a similar edit, which I've undone. It seems to me that both addresses are candidates for blocking at this point, and your substantial credentials make you look like someone to get the ball rolling.
Whatever happens, I've never seen an address like it, and if you know what it is (and I'm betting on that), I'd appreciate you sending me a brief explanation, thank you. Also note: this individual was 'clever' enough to use a slight variant of the 'original' address to make the second bogus edit.
Ironically, I'm a fan of the wrestler he's talking up in the 'Tsargush' article, and I suspect he's correct--but unwilling to abide by the rules. The wrestler in question is a 'Jersey boy,' like me. Go figure.
Thanks for all the good work you do here. Regards Tapered ( talk) 06:53, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Hey Dwpaul, I just wanted to say thanks for helping explain the WP:LISTPEOPLE on Morningtv13's talk page. I know what I'm saying, but am a horrible explainer which may lead to some people being confused. Although, I think some of us have tried to explain it to him once before about the Notable people situation. So I just wanted to say thanks for helping!

If you search Lil Durk's name on Google, it appears there is an unnecessary link there which excludes you from gaining any knowledge from the quick search.

Hi, I may be new to wikipedia, but this ain't my first rodeo. My addition to the Asia Carrera-Lemmon page was deleted because "facebook is not a reliable source" when infact that was the OFFICIAL Asia Carrera-Lemmon facebook page and the post was made my her personal assistant. I think you should un delete it. thanks.

did you see the source i added i misplaced it but it says salafi-wahabism. Vietcong nuturlizer ( talk) 23:31, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
To wit: Many, such as writer Quinton Wiktorowicz, urge use of the term Salafi, maintaining that "one would be hard pressed to find individuals who refer to themselves as Wahhabis or organizations that use 'Wahhabi' in their title, or refer to their ideology in this manner (unless they are speaking to a Western audience that is unfamiliar with Islamic terminology, and even then usage is limited and often appears as 'Salafi/Wahhabi')."

hmm, I have seen it before it was taken down, I do not think it is something that needs resurrecting, imho, I am sure there is a policy regarding photos of murdered children... However in this fraught environment, its your call, I do not think I am going to get into online discussion further regarding this issue. Other than that, good on your editing! satusuro 02:03, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
Be surprised all you want, but the next time you engage in an ad hominem like that I'll take you to task for incivility. Just because I disagree with you does not mean I don't understand the scope.

Hi, I know that there were some items available at the Disney shop in London in 2004. These articles are no longer available from the shop but I know they exist because I bought them there and still have them. I cannot find any reference to them anywhere on the internet. I do not know how to verify their existence because they are no longer available. Is there a way to verify them. Thankyou. Alanberris ( talk) 22:15, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi Dwpaul,
Can you please leave that -- the information is generally available on the internet. (Jean Fowler is actually my mom -- and my brother and I are doing it in part for celebration of her retirement. Thanks! Tom — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tefstrong ( talk • contribs) 05:42, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
Hi DwPaul,
I'm not exactly sure how to technically go about adding the references you mentioned. If you asked Jennie, Emma, Garrett, Alexxa and the many other entertainers the contribution my mom has left on their life, it would be enormous. She literally connected them from a small town to major gateways to their careers. This is on the Internet, all over. Therefore, it's common to find on the Internet. Google Jean Fowler and Jenny Garth or Garrett Hedlund or Emma Stone or Allexxa Havins and those always credit to her assistance. I'm not sure how to cite (I've never donw this before), and want to see that it's on their for her grand children. Would you be willing to help me contribute these since you know a lot more about than I do?
Thank you!
Tom Strong — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tefstrong ( talk • contribs) 04:02, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply and pointers on how to cite the pages. It's complicated the because, for example, Jenny Garth indicates her training experience but it's in an aubiography on Google Books. Garrett Hedlunds has many stories linked to him working to pay for acting lessons from my mom. But there is so much wiki jargon and citation etiquette. How do you actually take the webpage and put it I to the footnote? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tefstrong ( talk • contribs) 04:28, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

He is seen in the background of a photo of her with Aaron Paul, taken last night at the Elton John Oscar watching party (Zimbio). He is also seen with her in a photo on her official Instagram (Monte Carlo, May 2014). Other photos of them together can be seen on IG suewongfashion.

Dear Dwpaul, I just recently took a look at my Wikipedia page and there is so much about me that's missing. The fact that I'm a great host the things I do in the community and the Awards that I have been given. Yes I have made mistakes but when people look me up I dont want them to see just that. I tried to correct even the way I started my career. My song was just a freestyle I did on my way to the laundry it had nothing to do with radio stations. And UTFO didn't come up with a roxanne until they saw the success I was having. I have done projects with many Artists I have been sampled more than any other voice in hiphop on projects like Janet Jackson, Blackeye peas , j Cole, Nas I have been on other many soundtracks and too many complications to count. I just want the world to know there's more than just a not obtained or completed PHD. Sincerely Imroxanneshante ( talk) 16:10, 24 February 2015 (UTC)RoxanneShante

Category:Veterans of Foreign Wars was created for articles related to the VFW organization in the United States, not for any biography articles on a soldier who served in a different country. The main article is Veterans of Foreign Wars, it's parent categories are organizational, it's spelling is capitalized, and the content is clearly VFW. The main editor of the VFW article got a little carried away with applying the category, albeit in good faith. According to the sourced article, Truman wa a member but it doesn't seem to be defining enough to pass WP:NON-DEFINING or WP:COPDEF. If you want to add a new veteran's category, I have no objection. I want to make sure we avoid an (unintentional) edit war based on a misunderstanding of the category. If you still disagree, please tag me so we can discuss further. Thanks.

I understand the temptation to revert an editor who repeatedly adds unsourced material to an article, but you're not entitled to violate WP:3RR in doing so, which you did. I blocked the other editor, but, frankly, the main reason I didn't block you as well was because of the crude personal attack the user made on his Talk page. Nonethelesss, consider this a warning that if I see you do something like this again, you risk being blocked, and I'd hate to do that as I can see you're an experienced long-term editor with a clean block log. But for that same reason, you should know better.-- Bbb23 ( talk) 05:46, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining the standard I must meet in order to add Harley Gaber to the list of minimalist composers. For your reference, I'm now preparing an entry on Harley Gaber to submit to Wikipedia editors for publishing. This work in progress resides in my sandbox.

@Komchi: Hi Komchi. I'm afraid that isn't going to be a reliable source because it is self-published. You'll need to provide sources that have an identifiable kind of editorial review like a news organization or a book (that is not self-published). I, JethroBT drop me a line 02:29, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
