I refer to my proposed edit to the Pierre McGuire section. I have tried to amend this section earlier and was guided by another moderator named "Resolute". I have very little experience with Wikipedia so I don't know if this is possible but could he oversee my proposed edits? He is very knowledgeable about hockey and I think is better suited for this task. FYI, the third source I provided was not a real interview at all, it was all a joke and a very funny joke if you are familiar with McGuire's tendencies as a commentator. I will amend my edit to read "mocked" instead of "criticized" and make some other smaller changes to more accurately capture the essence of the articles I sourced. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitch macdonald ( talk • contribs) 02:12, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
This page has been under dispute for many months now,I stepped in as Lucas's page was being constantly edited,the original page was all based on a CV!
If you check out the abuse he received on June 1st..you will see he has had rather alot of slander.It seems like a particular user has a vendetta.Dont know why?
Can you tell me why CV and why an internationally respected database as SPOTLIGHT isnt recognised?
Also Lucas does appear in the Music Video and is Credited in the final credits.WHy do you not believe this?

Please can you advise RE the slander/vandalism level this page is receiving and what wikipedia does to protect people from abuse? Can you not make people who want to edit this page,become a user,so abuse cannot take place?
You yourself agree it's all very odd.Maybe the page should be scrapped as it seems that one person/people is using as a vendetta against Lucas.ALl very strange.Now it seems any info on the page will be disputed,all info is being removed or changed.Now as you have said, two Lucas references (including international actors ref site 'spotlight' is debateable for credibility).I have checked sources and they all back up most of his info,the sites where his professional attributes are sourced corrolate with his work credits etc etc.It seems a shame that any info on him will be disputed now because (as you suggest) actors lie on their CVs.Looking at Lucas's credits,it would be a shame.Maybe the page should be deleted,as at the moment its being used as a playground.

You've been accidentally performing edits at the request of Brexx, a long term banned user, at Bionic (Christina Aguilera album). I reverted the most recent one. You can add it back if you would, yourself, have independently added that information.
As a general rule, you should check the reason that an article has been semi-protected (it's in the protection log for the page, which you can click on on the history page). If the reason for the protection is sockpuppeting, it's generally a good idea to simply remove editsemiprotected requests.— Kww( talk) 22:28, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

Twp,
I noticed that you edited the page for Christ Episcopal Church (Waltham, Massachusetts) by noting that the page is primarily about the building, and not the community. I believe it's an important part of the building's identity to provide its history and an explanation of how it came to be, which is the purpose of my history section. In my exploration of other Wikipedia pages (Trinity Church Boston, for example) it is common and likely very useful for the page about a particular church building to provide some context about the building's history and the context of the community within it.
I am attempting to refurbish the page within the next couple of days as part of a project I did on the church's history; if you don't mind, I will ask you to refrain from anymore changes to the content until you see the final product and compare it to other similar pages for historic churches.
Thank you!

12:21, 17 July 2010 (UTC)Twp,
Thank you for your kind words regarding the page for Christ Church in Waltham! Regarding sources, you are correct that the reference "The History of Christ Church" is a self-pulished source. I am in the process of verifying more information with secondary sources, and my goal is to rely on secondary sources as much as possible for the "finished" product. I hope that a trip to the Waltham library this weekend will assist me!

Twp,
I am considering my work on the Christ Church page complete. I appreciated the edits you made and I hope that you'll give my final draft another read. As far as references are concerned, I added some additional secondary sources, and I also included a link for Christ Church's parish history - I found a hardcover version at the Waltham library, which I believe lends it some credence as a publicly available secondary source, rather than a strictly primary source.
I have enjoyed this first real adventure in Wikipedia - perhaps I'll find another pet project in the future.

Hi Twp,
Why do you keep on deleting the "Filomena on NCIS" addition to the Filomena Ristorante entry? There are no copyright issues, the whole page was started by me, and facts are backed by a link. So where would a potential violation lie?
Thanks for getting back to me.

I just found your response...Thanks.
I used to be WikiMiami...but changed it as it may be perceived a geographical reference. But 'Miami' is the name of my dog...hence, Ueberhund now.
I removed two references as the links have been taken down. Until recently, the removed reference gave information about the meeting between the President and the German Chancellor.
As for the YouTube link, this is the exact video clip showing the dialogue between the who characters. It is therefore 'backing' for the entry.
Ueberhund ( talk) 02:07, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi,
I would like to ask you for advise about your rejection of my article about Maxim Behar. The third-party independant source is http://www.forumdavos.com/Committee. Forum Davos is a reliable and well known PR forum. The other sources are cited to confirm Maxim Behar's membership in each organization. For example about the statement that he is a Deputy-Chairman of the Bulgarian Business leaders Forum (BBLF) the most reliable source is the organization site (bblf.bg), even if it is connected to Maxim Behar.
In other words I trust I cited all the needed information in order to confirm the statements in the article. What kind of source I can show more? Is it possible that you review again and reconsider the submission?

Hello. I've been working with others to clear the backlog of articles within this category and believe it may actually be superfluous. From what I've seen, articles with an image request are added to the category if they have images or not. Therefore, articles can be removed from the category if they have images in, but also if the request is still valid and they still require illustrating. This is taking the title of the category at face value but I would argue it isn't a necessary category, and, with a backlog of nearly 7,000, is creating an unnecessary workload.

Could you take a look at this proposal: User:Traveler100/bio-photo-bot. Are you willing to help me out with this or know where I could request assistance? -- Traveler100 ( talk) 12:49, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Thanks you for cleaning up the photo tags, some of which were my photos. I (and probably others) would appreciate it, though, if you would mark such changes as minor.
Also, you might want to look at AWB for such things -- it's much faster. . . Jim - Jameslwoodward ( talk • contribs) 17:34, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
I posted a response to your post yesterday but neglected to notify you. You mentioned your health problems, and I didn't want to aggravate anything. But, now I'm also concerned about violating Wikipedia rules.

hi thank you for starting the discussion at terry o quinn. i honestly dont have the time to really have that discussion it does not matter to me as much as it seems to to bovineboy2008. i am curious though is it not considered rude to do what he did and revert someones change without any comment at all?

Twp,
I noticed that you edited the page for Christ Episcopal Church (Waltham, Massachusetts) by noting that the page is primarily about the building, and not the community. I believe it's an important part of the building's identity to provide its history and an explanation of how it came to be, which is the purpose of my history section. In my exploration of other Wikipedia pages (Trinity Church Boston, for example) it is common and likely very useful for the page about a particular church building to provide some context about the building's history and the context of the community within it.
I am attempting to refurbish the page within the next couple of days as part of a project I did on the church's history; if you don't mind, I will ask you to refrain from anymore changes to the content until you see the final product and compare it to other similar pages for historic churches.
Thank you!

Given the work I have done over the past week, I believe that the page for Christ Church in Waltham no longer qualifies as a stub.
How do I go about getting the page "upgraded," if it indeed merits qualification beyond a stub?
Thanks!

Thank you for your kind words regarding the page for Christ Church in Waltham! Regarding sources, you are correct that the reference "The History of Christ Church" is a self-pulished source. I am in the process of verifying more information with secondary sources, and my goal is to rely on secondary sources as much as possible for the "finished" product. I hope that a trip to the Waltham library this weekend will assist me!

Twp,
I am considering my work on the Christ Church page complete. I appreciated the edits you made and I hope that you'll give my final draft another read. As far as references are concerned, I added some additional secondary sources, and I also included a link for Christ Church's parish history - I found a hardcover version at the Waltham library, which I believe lends it some credence as a publicly available secondary source, rather than a strictly primary source.
I have enjoyed this first real adventure in Wikipedia - perhaps I'll find another pet project in the future.

You've reverted my edits on National Canal Museum claiming that the source does not provide proof of the claim of birthplace of the industrial revolution. It is commonly known that since Beverly had the first cotton mill in America, it contributed extremely heavily towards the earliest parts of the industrial revolution, making cotton milling possible here in America.

Hi Twp,
Why do you keep on deleting the "Filomena on NCIS" addition to the Filomena Ristorante entry? There are no copyright issues, the whole page was started by me, and facts are backed by a link. So where would a potential violation lie?
Thanks for getting back to me.

I just found your response...Thanks.
I used to be WikiMiami...but changed it as it may be perceived a geographical reference. But 'Miami' is the name of my dog...hence, Ueberhund now.
I removed two references as the links have been taken down. Until recently, the removed reference gave information about the meeting between the President and the German Chancellor.
As for the YouTube link, this is the exact video clip showing the dialogue between the who characters. It is therefore 'backing' for the entry.
Ueberhund ( talk) 02:07, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
Well, the potential for copy-write violations linking YouTube makes sense. Will posting the text without the link be okay? Thanks, Ueberhund ( talk) 13:07, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi,
I would like to ask you for advise about your rejection of my article about Maxim Behar. The third-party independant source is http://www.forumdavos.com/Committee. Forum Davos is a reliable and well known PR forum. The other sources are cited to confirm Maxim Behar's membership in each organization. For example about the statement that he is a Deputy-Chairman of the Bulgarian Business leaders Forum (BBLF) the most reliable source is the organization site (bblf.bg), even if it is connected to Maxim Behar.
In other words I trust I cited all the needed information in order to confirm the statements in the article. What kind of source I can show more? Is it possible that you review again and reconsider the submission?

Hello. I've been working with others to clear the backlog of articles within this category and believe it may actually be superfluous. From what I've seen, articles with an image request are added to the category if they have images or not. Therefore, articles can be removed from the category if they have images in, but also if the request is still valid and they still require illustrating. This is taking the title of the category at face value but I would argue it isn't a necessary category, and, with a backlog of nearly 7,000, is creating an unnecessary workload.
