I noticed your post on BLP about getting your full background posted. Do you have a list of the sources for your laser work, or any sort of record of how much the CIA paid you for your ESP program? If so, I'd be happy to try to add in those citations and see if we can't make your bio more balanced.

Edit warring

April 2014
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Russell Targ. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. MrBill3 (talk) 23:33, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
AN/I notice
There is currently a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. - - MrBill3 (talk) 02:08, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring, and for persistently editing to try to promote a point of view, contrary to the requirement that Misplaced Pages editing be done from a neutral point of view. In addition, you should be aware that Misplaced Pages's guideline on conflict of interest strongly discourages editors from editing articles about themselves, their work, or any other subject in which they have a similar personal involvement. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:06, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
Recent edit to Russell Targ
Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to Russell Targ, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.Vieque (talk • ctb) 19:40, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
Conflict of Interest editing and Edit Warring at Russell Targ
Hello, Torgownik. We welcome your contributions to Misplaced Pages, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Russell Targ, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Misplaced Pages article or website of your organization in other articles (see Misplaced Pages:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Misplaced Pages's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Misplaced Pages when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. You have made statements in content you have attempted to add to that article that indicate you are the subject of the article. It is not appropriate for you to edit the article directly. If you have suggestions for improving the article post them on the talk page of the article.

You have been blocked once for edit warring on this article and have now returned and are engaging in similar behavior.
