hint

Please be cautious about including "philanthropist" in the lede, unless there's really something major. A number of NPP editors have begun to use it as an indication of likely promotionalism. DGG ( talk ) 22:26, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

DGG, Thanks for the hint. That's how most of the sources described him. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 23:21, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

of course they do. Most of the sources for a businessman are PR, at least to some extent, and most sources of any sort describe any one they are writing an article about in the most expansive way possible. That's why encyclopedias are different. DGG ( talk ) 06:31, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

A beer for you!

For your clean up on Marvin Heermeyer. Funny, from your editing you don't seem drunk as a rule. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:16, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

Margaret M. McChesney moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Margaret M. McChesney, has unclear notability: first female lawyer to appear before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court would be notable ; the. first to appear before the full bench might not be. incubate in draftspace. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Topics

You are a very good editor, a content creator of whom we definitely need more of around here on Misplaced Pages. So I ask you, why do you have to keep poking bears? You're already firmly banned from the KofC. Do you want to be banned from homosexuality next? Arbitration enforcement is on top of this one, unlike the Knights. Do you have any idea of the history of the article, between Roscelese and Contaldo80 and Esoglou and others? Esoglou was permanently exiled from Misplaced Pages by ArbCom. I hate to say Roscelese is in the right here, but she is a good-faith editor whose opinions should not be discounted or set aside so easily as you are doing. The best thing that could happen right now is for you to realize it's Lent, disengage from this topic, go edit in something inconsequential for 5-6 weeks, and see when Easter dawns whether or not it's really worthwhile for you to be messing around at contentious topic areas, against WP:SYSTEMIC bias that we'll never hope to upend.

Some baklava for you!

Thanks for editing WP and creating marvelous articles. WikiAviator (talk) 04:10, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, WikiAviator! I don't do it for the recognition, but it's nice to receive anyway. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 04:01, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Stop the Church

I would advise you to retract the statement you made "Contaldo, as another editor pointed out to you just 48 hours ago, you have been editing long enough to know the rules" or I will make a formal complaint. This comment was made by another editor, and not an administrator. And it was in relation to a discussion with which you have not been involved. It bears no relevance to the discussion under Stop the Church. You have used it to try to humiliate and belittle me. Contaldo80 (talk) 04:45, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
