Jelina Haines

Hello DragonLord, My apology for posting about the info of Jelina Haines. Would you be able to assist me of how to do a bibliographic about her.

thank you, Jelina40 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jelina40 (talk • contribs) 07:07, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

I cannot confirm that there is not a conflict of interest. As it stands, based on your username, it certainly appears that you are, or are affiliated with, Jelina Haines. — DragonLord 07:12, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi DragonLord, Thank you i wasn't aware with the conflict of interest in the content. I was just merely adding a section on notable filipino- Australian. Would you be able to delete my user page as well.

Thanks, Jelina40 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jelina40 (talk • contribs) 07:37, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

the edit was based on fact, people in this day and age should be warned about predators like him - freedom of speech that can be backed up with proof — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.166.48.89 (talk) 02:27, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Your edit was defamatory and was not backed by any sources. Misplaced Pages policy on biographies of living persons calls for immediate removal of defamatory material, and that's what I did. — DragonLord 02:32, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Please semi-protect this talk page

This request for help from administrators has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page.

Due to constant vandalism (this is April Fools' Day), please semi-protect this talk page for 24 hours. Thanks. — DragonLord 15:50, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Protected for 12 hours -- Dianna (talk) 16:40, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. —DragonLord 16:41, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Perins School

Hello DragonLord, thank you for your message to state that you undid my edit to Perins School. I believe you are referring to the "We strive for excellence in everything we do" This is not deliberate advertisement, it is simply the motto of the school. I, in no way, intended to advertise the school. I was about to add to this to explain in more detail that this is the school's motto.

Thank you very much for pointing this out to me, I am grateful and sorry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.225.116.198 (talk) 16:07, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

In cases like these, use the {{Under construction}} template, so that we can see that you're working on the article. Today is April Fools' Day, and we're on high alert for vandalism. Sorry for this mistake. —DragonLord 16:09, 1 April 2013 (UTC)

Breyer State

I am a rep for SACS accreditation body. The information is incorrect, as Breyer State is now in the process of acquiring accreditation. Also, The sources of the original text were provided by SEO's of competing schools. In addition to pursuing the accreditation process, BSU is pursuing a Civil lawsuit against the online groups who have contributed in providing the public with malicious and false slanderous information. Best, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.53.149.122 (talk) 16:46, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

See Misplaced Pages:No legal threats. —DragonLord 17:02, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Is it worth alerting legal@wikimedia.org about this? Chances are what the IPs saying is a dud but we can't be too careful. MIVP - (Can I Help?) (Maybe a bit of tea for thought?) 17:05, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Go ahead. This looks like a serious threat to me. I do not want to get too involved in this, and I'm worried about spam, so I can't send an email myself. —DragonLord 17:09, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Your request for rollback

Hi DragonLord. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Misplaced Pages:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Yunshui 雲‍水 08:38, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Parrish Art Museum

Hello, DragonLord,

I'm Mark Segal, PR and Marketing Director of the Parrish Art Museum. The changes I made, and you unmade, were made to more accurately reflect the museum, its mission, and its programs. There are inaccuracies in your version: the Esteban Vicente, Dorothea Rockburne, and Juliao Sarmento exhibitions took place in 2011. I tried to give more information on the Alice Aycock, Michelle Stuart, Pollock, Ossorio, Dubuffet, and Jennifer Bartlett exhibitions, including links to our website, but you have removed those references. Some of the past exhibitions you cited were quite some time ago, and I tried to update that section as well. Our director encouraged me to make the changes I made. I don't understand why you felt it was unnecessary to undo those changes and reinstate material that is dated and in some cases inaccurate.Msegal3054 (talk) 15:31, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

The edit was rolled back because it reflected a conflict of interest, as you replaced well-sourced content with material that referenced the Parrish Art Museum web site. See Misplaced Pages:Conflict of interest. —DragonLord 15:36, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Selena Roberts

How is your sentence any more 'constructive?' An already tainted Auburn football team? What is tainted? There have been 'allegations' not charges. If I say I heard you were a criminal does that make you tainted? Fix that sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blakeau19 (talk • contribs) 15:34, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced controversial material about living persons. See our policy for biographies of living persons for more details. —DragonLord 15:44, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Please give feedback on recent reverts

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I've just received rollback rights, and I've been using rollback in RC patrols and automated reverts using Huggle. I'm concerned that I may have gone too far with some of my edits or may have made some mistakes. Please take a look at my contributions and let me know if there are any problems, and I'll try to address them appropriately. Thanks. —DragonLord 16:09, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Addressed in IRC chat. —DragonLord 16:32, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Removed link on ceramic knife

Hi, I just made a small contribution by adding an external link and in less than 2 sec i got a message from you saying that the link was removed, no explanation just " contact DRAGONlord". I have big doubts that in 2 sec you had enough time to read that article and to delete the link without any explanation. So....what happen ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.146.85.190 (talk) 16:49, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

I thought the link was promotional. Sorry for the mistake; it has been undone. —DragonLord 16:54, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

No problem, i was just ....surprised to see that after i found something additional to be added as source on that article, immediately was removed without ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.146.85.190 (talk) 16:56, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Rexx

Is that what you people do for a living--police Misplaced Pages edits from one second to the next? How tragic. It's even more remarkable that you folks tend to complain about "vandalism" when someone adds a verified fact to a scientific article; I guess you're all multiple subject area gurus, as well as self-styled arbiters of all fields of human endeavor . . . ? It reminds me of how amusing I used to find barring logins and deleting directories and what-not when I was a 16-year-old operator in college (today it would be called a system programmer, but, back then, admin/operation was included). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.249.207.46 (talk) 17:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

The edit you made to Rexx is clearly nonconstructive. —DragonLord 17:08, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

the part i removed

the part i removed from the page women in islam says that in islam women can't prove rape cases, and that isn't true, i've studied islamic fiqh and sharia. and what happens in these states, are far away from islamic teachings, they usually misinterpret islam on purpose to save the tribal feudal capitalist elite using tribal uneducated mullahs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.205.142.1 (talk) 18:14, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

The content you removed had citations for it, and without an explanation in the edit summary, I can only assume that the deletion was incorrect. —DragonLord 19:25, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Cigarette smokers problem

What did you think about what I wrote? Did you THINK? I am not familiar with how Misplaced Pages works, and thought the few sentences I wrote would of course not become part of the article, but rather, be a note to contibutors, alerting somebody who HAS the knowledge and HAS the inclination, to make the article better. That was my intention, and if you are a THINKING person, you could have handled it by doing something to that point. Maybe you have, if so, Thanks! Hopefully, if you are in a mood to share with me what it is you do and the benefits those actions have, you could just as speedily effect I the change I had hoped to make, a clarification/article suggestion. I still don't understand why it is a problem, if the other smokers have to wait for the match man to finish his smoke. Cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.19.183.102 (talk • contribs) 22:28, 4 April 2013‎ (UTC)

If you want to raise a discussion about the article, use the talk page. Attempts to start a discussion do not belong in article space. Thanks. —DragonLord 22:35, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

About the edit war in List of Winx Club Episodes

I've trying to explain the user who is deleting the content that a site not being owned by Nickelodeon doesn't mean it's not official. As far as I know information from future episodes can be taken from tv schedules, which is the case of the content in the article. I want to report this user after the last comment he posted in my talk page "the soucre on winx club is not offical so stop the edit war...so shut the f*** up!! -.- that not official so stop it now!" and because he's always erasing information although it's sourced, hope this can help solve the edit war !
