There is a guy on this IP who makes random changes to Transformers articles which are nonsensical. I have to constantly monitor it and revert them. Can he be blocked? user_talk:mathewignash —The preceding signed but undated comment was added at 02:51, August 20, 2007 (UTC).

He hasn't received any warnings for vandalism. You can find warning templates at WP:UTM and if he persists, you can report him at WP:AIV. IrishGuy 02:54, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Please read WP:COI. You shouldn't be writing about an organization you are affiliated with. Beyond that, you created a single sentence article about a person with no assertion of importance and no references at all. IrishGuy 19:26, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion

Sir, It is evident that you don't want the other readers of wikipedia to see the content of that link. This links is evidently appropriate for the subject covered and presents an alternative view of the same subject treated here. The fact that it does not say that this document is a fraud bothers you, so you have made an excuse for it to remove it. You try to look cool, but you have been dishonest with me at worst or grossly negligent in your comments at best. Please provide a precise explanation why you want to censor this link (your response was merely a cut and paste of wikipedia policy and does not apply here, evidently). No alternative opinion or view is expressed in this document as it should be to keep it neutral. Regards. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.218.11.70 (talk)

Removing spam isn't "censoring". It isn't a reliable source, it isn't even remotely neutral or encyclopedic. It is spam. Stop. IrishGuy 20:39, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

You are calling names but you refuse to respond. Labeling webistes "spam" does necessarily make them so. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.218.11.70 (talk) 20:56, August 21, 2007 (UTC)

I did respond. The fact that you don't happen to like the response doesn't negate it. IrishGuy 21:00, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Clive Barker sites

You seem to be erasing two legitimate Clive Barker sites used as references for various articles, including some articles for which I can personally vouch has having use those sites. I'd like to show good faith that you are not simply removing these sites out of a dislike for the author Barker. You are, however, methodically erasing these through Misplaced Pages, and I'm not sure how one can be confident that they were never used as reference. Any talk-page explanation on these sites would be appropriate; saying just "linkspam" doesn't fully give reasoning regarding what seem to be standard non-commercial websites. Thanks. --Tenebrae 23:42, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

A year ago 85.210.225.157 simply spammed these links into about fifty article. No content was added, simply the highly promotional link about the link having a archive of fascinating comment. In Clive Barker's article...fine. In the fifty other articles they were spammed into...no. IrishGuy 23:44, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for getting back to me. I did look through some of the Barker links elsewhere, and they were indeed appended with promotional comments. I've no input as to those links, and can only say the Barker/Razorline links were legit. You might want to check if some of the other ones you removed were OK, i.e., had no appended promo statements. In any case, thanks again for the collegial collaboration. Cheers, --Tenebrae 02:01, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

No problem. If they belonged in an article (e.g. Clive Barker, Cenobite, etc.) I mainly left them in place...but the bulk of them were clearly promotional and added to many articles where they just didn't belong (e.g. a link to the website because Barker wrote a forward to a book once).

SAVE Program

Please undelete this file that I load yesterday. I am with the United States Citizenship & Immigration Services and I'm the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) Program Chief. I'm attempting to load a page about this program that I manage for USCIS. I am the owner of this information and have permission to post it here. Thanks. Boundsdh 11:54, 22 August 2007 (UTC)David H.

You just erased an article I made. Is this some kind of Gestapo on Misplaced Pages? If you feel that the page is lacking, say so. I can work on it further. Especially if the page is edited by some registered user.--Sebastian Stadil 02:25, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

It was an article about a company with no assertion of notability or importance. Misplaced Pages is not a venue for advertising. IrishGuy 02:28, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

why do you keep on deleting my pages. they are representing me my friends and my company do not delete anymore thanks. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kloc-187 (talk • contribs) 20:20, August 23, 2007 (UTC).

Stop attempting to use wikipedia to promote yourself. Please read WP:COI. IrishGuy 20:24, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for blocking vandal Lan Cafe Whatever. It was very much appreciated. AngelOfSadness talk 00:35, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

No problem at all. IrishGuy 00:36, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm saying thanks again for the block placed on the editing privledges of User:AngryAryan. AngelOfSadness talk 00:56, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Again, no problem at all. :) IrishGuy 00:58, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I feel I am being discriminated against

I followed the rules regarding posting links on article pages and have used the discussion page to get a link approved. However if you take a look at the talk page for the Emigrate article you will see the points I have made and so far the only responses I have gotten seem a little hypocritical and prejudiced against me personally. The reasons I have been given for not being able to post a link are because 'fan sites' are of little value and offer 'nothing exceptionally unique or informational'. However this article and many others on wikipedia allow links to fan sites that are little more than shrines with very little info at all. I feel that the website I am trying to get approved holds very comprehensive information on the subject and would be of value. Others have posted links to the site but these have been removed too even though other people clearly feel that the link should be there.

Please see the article and discussion page for further info. Emigrateunofficial 13:23, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

You aren't being prejudiced against. Fansites ordinarily fail WP:EL across the board and are routinely removed from articles. IrishGuy 20:49, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Mary Christina Brown discussion

So I read the discussion on this article on this actress/producer..It sounds like your staff is saying she is not legit or that her credits are not true? Is there a way to resolve this problem or can someone help assist the article? Go ahead to http://www.hollywood.com/celebrity/Mary_Christina_Brown/3595550

or other sites for proof that she is not an extra. Look forward to hearing from you! :) whitney —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marychristina8 (talk • contribs) 20:42, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

That link gives her exactly one credit. How does that make her notable? IrishGuy 20:49, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Edit count discrepancy

Hey man, I've got a question for you, if that's okay. I was in my preferences making myself a signature and I noticed that an edit count was listed; however, it's much higher than the one listed by Kate's tool (Misplaced Pages says 1799, Kate's tool says 1420). I know the discrepancy comes from deleted articles, but my question is, which do people usually go by? Thanks! GlassCobra (talk • contribs) 02:18, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

I assume you are asking in reference to a potential future RfA, am I correct? In that case, Kate's tool is usually what is used. IrishGuy 02:32, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

hi again

Hi. Irishguy,

So Im trying to understand what to do...so are you going to delete Mary Christina Brown for WIKIPEDIA? or can you assist me on how to make it work? Should I have a professional redue this article? There are so many actors and actresses who are on the site and they dont have as many credits as Mary Christina. She's up and coming and has some movies coming out later this year. What should we do?

Please let me know...

Thank you so much!

If you have a conflict of interest you shouldn't be editing the article at all. The AfD will be decided on policy, namely WP:NOTE and WP:BIO. IrishGuy 02:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
