Note about the Mullazai dispute

What do you make of this? A little insignificant 20:49, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Interesting. My guess is they'll go off-wiki to discuss changes to the article in their native tongue which they're more comfortable in. I think this is ok as long as they present their proposed changes on the talk page first. We may have to reiterate WP:N, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:COI at that point in time. --NeilN 20:59, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Come to my talk page for the rest of the conversation- note that edit made the sockpuppetry obvious, so I blocked newsfuse. Also: Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard#proposed topic ban for User:AurangzebMarwat tedder (talk) 21:21, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

I Comitted Vandalism????

How is adding a tag that says they have too much spam vandalism??? Did you see how many links they had, on the Call of Duty 2 article? That is considered advertising. So i added the tag, does that sound like vandalism to you?—Preceding unsigned comment added by Jesuzfreak777 (talk • contribs) 03:39, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry to butt in here but speedy deletion tags are for when the whole article should be deleted, not just content in it. Jesuzfreak, I suggest you look here. Furthermore, pages that are more than a few days old rarely get speedily deleted. Also, all the links in the body of the article are just to other wikipedia pages. — Oli Pyfan! 03:46, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Eh? I "tagged" you because it seemed you were making test edits. --NeilN 05:05, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

There does seem to be a degree of doubt and blp issues surrounding this addition, imo it is better at this time to leave it out as regards the blp issues and not the legal threat. Off2riorob (talk) 23:03, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Please wade through the talk page as it has a history of bad faith edits. --NeilN 23:05, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

I have read some of the discussion, whether is has a source or not it is disputed controversial material and until the discussion is over it should be left out. Off2riorob (talk) 23:06, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

The deletions occurred AFTER a court ruling against wikipedia in the US District, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, NOT a precursor to filing same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.235.215.80 (talk) 21:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

I highly doubt you're telling the truth. --NeilN 21:49, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

There is no room for your opinion..." I highly doubt you're telling the truth." You are why wiki has fallen into the abyss of credibility. Who is NeilN anyway? A woose who wouldn't know fact if it fell on him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.235.215.80 (talk) 01:21, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

There's no room here for unsubstantiated untrue assertions. Any court ruling against "Misplaced Pages" would be mentioned prominently on the site and a note would be placed on the talk page by a Wikimedia Foundation member. Now, please go away and do your trolling somewhere else. --NeilN 01:39, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Please advise and provide written guidelines that disallow the use of public legal documents as sources on wikipeida.org. You have deleted a verified fact, with legal attribution. Most importantly you have deleted a statement posted by the US Justice Department Civil Rights Division related to a court decision against Wiki citing damages of $250,000. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Timpanycecelia (talk • contribs) 23:38, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

The latest ones, there still seems to be an issue there? Off2riorob (talk) 18:53, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Did you actually read what I reverted ? --NeilN 18:56, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I did look, I am only asking you what is the situation there in general, not in regards to any single reverts. Off2riorob (talk) 18:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

You asked about reverting. The only reverts since the 19th have been done by me to remove unsourced info and the laughable claim that Misplaced Pages was successfully sued for $250K. --NeilN 19:08, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

You might be interested in knowing that the sockpuppet responsible for altering the Lester Coleman page has a history of altering several related pages. Mr. Coleman provided an affidavit which tied him to these pages, several of which I have posted notices in the discussion area. I am not a regular editor to wikipedia, I do not wish to use improper protocol, and since there are active homicide investigations and recent media coverage, it is harmful to my family and others to let these problems go unresolved. Please let me know if you have any problem with my posts in the talk section of Inslaw, Danny Casolaro, Michael Riconosciuto. I don't want to spam everyone related to editing these pages, I'm hoping you and/or Off2riorob would be able to direct me as to proper protocol if I have made any errors.Winksatfriend (talk) 05:04, 2 December 2009 (UTC)winksatfriend

I get it now though he was trying to add August Heissner, who is the co-creator of garden gnomes - 4twenty42o (talk) 00:07, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Didn't mean to, just wanted him to stop adding advertising material to the article. I did give him a customized warning and replied to his comment on the talk page. Re: Heissner - that should need a source, I'm thinking. --NeilN 00:11, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Hello NeilN!

it is ok, you are a good one. I give the whole informations to the Misplaced Pages-Management. If I get an feedback will I inform you. Do what you think and have a good live.

Please don't remove my comments

You removed my comments on the Thierry Henry article's discussion page. I was merely pointing out a good piece of vandalism. The edit which I linked to has become quite famous in itself having being copied onto FHM UK's website and newsletter communications. Not all vandalism is bad. Some of it can be funny and in real life too - like when people ammend street signs adding on the number of kilometres/miles to Timbuktu or some other far far away place.--Xania 22:11, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

You were also encouraging people to use the talk page as a forum. This is not acceptable. Plus, not everyone shares your sense of humour - quite a few women take offense to the word that was sprinkled liberally throughout the vandalized version you linked to. --NeilN 22:41, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Many thanks...

Fresh start

It would be my pleasure to assist in the talks and to help with research. I cannot read written Japanese, but I do have a translator pretty close to home if that would help at all. I do appreciate all of your help on this. When I stumbled into this mess I had no idea what I was getting into. Its kinda nice to know I have a little more help.

Please join the conversation on the talk page; the editor isn't getting it (yours or my objection), and I feel the article needs some clarity as to its goal before moving forward. Thanks. —Aladdin Sane (talk) 20:16, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Referencing to an event

Hello Neil. It wasn't clear maybe to whom I was talking (Peter or you) in my reply on the WGKF talk page, but when it comes to the question about an extra reference, it was addressed to you. I wouldn't ask Peter anything any more, except rhetorical questions. After 6 years of trying, I found that there is no way of communicating with him, even when he gets the evidence thrown right in his face, he will categorically deny it. Thereby, the only goal of Peter is to get WGKF removed, preferably dragging Genseiryu and GKIF with it. Why? I don't know. Ask him... But in many discussions about Genseiryu or WGKF here on Misplaced Pages he said, repeatedly, that his wish is to see the articles removed. Quite destructive, isn't it? He calls himself so "constructive", but wanting an article gone, is not constructive, but destructive. He actually tried the same thing on the Dutch Misplaced Pages, but didn't succeed... Now, I do want to be constructive. I've helped a lot with creating a NPOV article about Genseiryu on the Dutch Misplaced Pages, on which Peter Lee got blocked for a year after many warnings and other blocks (, , to name a few)! Makes you think, doesn't it? Anyway, to the subject, I have two websites that directly refer to the event of the tournament, held by the WGKF in 2008. One of them belongs to the Federation itself (the one I posted earlier, and I think you should have a closer look at that link, it even holds the official results of the tournament), the other one belongs to a (slightly) different karate style, so that one is not a 1st party reference, but at least a 2nd party, maybe even 3rd. I am trying to find more references, but it's difficult, since everything is in Japanese. Will these two references do, to mention the event? An event that should be mentioned in the article WGKF, to show that they are not just sitting on their buttocks, but they are actually doing something! Quite important, in my view. Anyway, nobody can deny the event happened. It's like denying the Summer Olympics of 2008 ever took place... So, please tell me, if it will do if I mention another reference, which is at least 2nd party? MarioR 21:41, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Help Requested

Hi there. It seems to me, that Mario Roering has commenced in yet another edit war here: Genseiryū Karate-do International Federation. It was changed, then I reverted the changes once, and now it has occurred again. As I will not submit to enter an edit war and/or violate the rules of Misplaced Pages, I hereby request your help. It is obvious that these attacks are done by Mario Roering, even though these attacks are done "anonymously", they attack the same issues we are now discussing on the WGKF talkpage. Further, attacks have commenced on my person on YouTube in the last 24 hours as have his continued attacks on his own personal homepage. It is clear to me, that Mario Roering's aim is not the creation of articles on karate, Genseiryu or any other noble aim, but only to attack and diminish the view in which people see me, as well as stepping on the GKIF and Genseiryu in general in a way to promote himself and/or the WGKF. This behavior should be stopped and consequences should ensue. He will not stop his attacks and infringements be it Misplaced Pages rules or the law of his own country nor any other law. He does whatever he wants, using whatever means he see fit, even if this means breaking rules and/or the law. 4-5 years ago, I was also part in the crap he caused here on Misplaced Pages, but at the same time he created so many homepages using "free webhosting" various places on the Internet. I spent a lot of time getting these homepages removed and I succeeded. Thus he ended up hosting his hateful content on his own homepage, which so far I have had no luck in removing as the owners of the servers/company has never responded to my mails and filled out forms. He has now started again with YouTube, and now the time has begun for me to search the net yet again. This man is a bitter man on a quest to destroy everything and everyone who do not agree with him. I hope for your understanding. Peter Lee (talk) 20:26, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Do you have a third-party source for this? --NeilN 20:30, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

For what? Peter Lee (talk) 20:49, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

"The Genseiryu Karate-do International Federation is the only officially recognized organization of Genseiryu in Japan." --NeilN 20:55, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, I do, but that is not the issue here. Mario Roering is falsely claiming, that we, the Genseiryū Karate-do International Federation is not allowed to write Genseiryū without adding Butokukai. That is the reason for the removal of the text from the article. That is the stated reason, why the person has removed this text. These are the exact same claims Mario Roering is using when he is in fact logging in using his own name. On these grounds, the text cannot rightfully be removed. Further, the homepage of the JKF (Japan Karate-do Federation) clearly shows that the GKIF is a recognized federation member of the JKF. I don't see anything in regard to the WGKF. And you should remember, that the WGKF is a new organization established in Spain with the main actor from Holland, Nobuaki Konno. It is NOT a Japanese organization at all. Thus I don't need any documentation, it should be common sense, that the WGKF is not recognized as an organization in Japan. If that reason is to be used, then Mario must come up with evidence saying that the GKIF, Butokukai etc. are not allowed to write Genseiryū without adding Butokukai. Mario or anyone else is not able to do so, because what they are saying is a lie. If a verdict was done by the law, meaning a judge, in Japan, then that evidence is very easy to obtain. Just having a transcript would be enough. But such a transcript does not exist, simply because their claims are a lie. That should be obvious by now. Peter Lee (talk) 21:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Honestly, the easiest way to keep your preferred text in the article is to provide a good reference. If that article was on my watchlist and someone added that text, I would have reverted and templated the editor with an unreferenced warning. --NeilN 22:01, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

It seems to me that EVerything omitted in the WGKF article is omitted because there is no accepted reference shown. At the same time the GKIF article shows completely no proof or reference on many claims mentioned. Shouldn't there be quotations, like the only accepted Genseiryu or Tosa was the first student, which is actually not true, be omitted too? I am not so familiar with wikipedia therefore I don't know the exact rules. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TenChiJin (talk • contribs) 23:27, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Yes, any material which is not sourced may be challenged and removed if a reference is not found. I suggest you add {{cn}} after each sentence you feel requires a cite. --NeilN 01:29, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Now, Mario Roering, how many accounts do you have on Misplaced Pages. 4-5 years ago, when your account got blocked, you created the TenChiJin account. Now you are pressed and using it again. When will you come forth and use your own name, such as I do, for EVERYTHING, instead of your deceitful actions here? Peter Lee (talk) 01:50, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

To NeilN. I understand about the sources, but in that case, like I have requested many times earlier, any and all articles on Misplaced Pages regarding Genseiryū should be removed from here. The Genseiryū, Genseiryū Karate-do International Federation and World Genseiryū Karatedō Federation articles. That would in more than one way be the best for everybody, as this is taking up too much time and facts can only in a few incidents be confirmed by a third party. Especially in regard to the WGKF, as this organizaiton is not based in Japan, and it is a very young organization. I have requested the removal, others have requested the removal, but everytime some thin excuse for keeping them come up. Latest in regard to the WGKF article, which Mario himself wants to keep. I want to keep the articles too, but NOT in this way taking up so much time of my life. So to end this ridiculous war, it would be better to remove the articles. They are about organizations anyway, which is a basic reason here for removal. Peter Lee (talk) 01:50, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

I challenged several statements and the reference presented are from the website of GKIF in my opinion an reference should be given from a neutral third party but just repeating themself on another website and claiming it as proof is quite ridiculous. I will chalenge again several statements. I don't know how it works but this way no solution is possible to make neutral article. Maybe it is nice to make a link to Peter Lee performing sansai Butokukai style. Another video is presented on a website from Mr. Roering Sansai performed by a 14 year old girl doing Geseiryu style, according sensei Kanai head instructor and personally announced by sensei Shukumine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TenChiJin (talk • contribs) 21:23, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Mario Roering, why are you keeping up this ridiculous sharade? Now, get out of your cocoon and use your real name instead of hiding behind IP-addresses, proxies and different accounts. I have reverted your requests for citations on citations in the GKIF article. You cannot ask for a citation on a citation. What kind of weird rigid thinking is that? You can dispute a citation or you can ask for more citations ON THE TALKPAGE, but you cannot ask for a citation on a citation just because you don't like to be confronted with truth and facts. WAKE UP. If a citation is from the GKIF or elsewhere on a GKIF member site, then that citation is done in that way for instance regarding membership. It is impossible for any other organization to know who the members of the GKIF are. THAT is why such a citation is included. That is logical, and it cannot be done in any other way. If you have another way, please keep me informed, or perhaps you can include that information yourself? And stop your attacks on Genseipedia, stop your attacks and ridiculous threats on your own external homepage, stop your attacks on YouTube, stop your attacks period. Peter Lee (talk) 09:22, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

To NeilN. About the WGKF article, nothing really seems to happen these days. Is it alright to start deleting, change, including etc. things in the article, or is it still "on hold"? Peter Lee (talk) 14:21, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

You might as well go ahead as it's no use reconstructing the article as I suggested if it could be deleted for lack of notability. Please make sure all additions are well-sourced. --NeilN 14:31, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Alright, thanks. The sources are the problem. I understand your concern. Peter Lee (talk) 14:46, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi NeilN. Just wanting some advice please. I tried to work on the article of WGKF for an hour or so, but it seems to me, that there are so many references in there, which are not easy to check up on. The ones which are websites, are easy though. The text on these websites are in some cases in accordance with what it is supposed to reference in the WGKF article, but the information on the websites are maybe not in all but in many or most cases based on none researched subjects, opinions or at best lack of facts. For example (without being too specific), the year of establishing Genseiryū, is completely different going from 1949 to 1953, some state that Taidō was invented in 1962, some in 1963, 1964 and 1965 etc. There is absolutely no consistency to the contents of the references. These homepages are written by people who have (obviously) no other specific references to rely on. I mean, they seem to base their own stories/sites on information taken form other sites. Sort of a go-around-information. In some cases I believe, the information has been "copied" or "transferred" but not entirely correct thus some information has been lost or changed. I have not deleted any of the references, but only changed a few things in the article. Most of my time went by because of reading the references. Even the main site in Japanese seems to not be completely correct. Perhaps written out of memory more than having documents etc. in front when writing it. In contrast to this, I have about five shelves full of pictures, news papers, transcripts, magazines, interviews, faxes, books etc. all research material going back to early 1955 or there about. Most (not all) of the information I have found on the websites contradict what I have here. My thinking right now is, that it may be nearly impossible to construct an article with references (even if these are allowed not to be third party references) that do not contradict. My question therefore is this: Could you suggest a way to go about it, as I don't want to be the "bad man" from GKIF attacking everything out of the WGKF. I want to make a fair article, but I now believe that it will not be possible under the circumstances. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Peter Lee (talk) 00:49, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Dear Neill,

I also would get some advice. Peter Lee suggests to change the article of WGKF. On the other hand he is changing his organization promotion article the article of GKIF. I asked as you advied for reference about the statements he is making. Well he is putting alot of references as I requested. The only thing that makes this ridicilous is the fact that all his references are from the website of GKIF and are not neutral and can't be verified. Therefore they have no value. What can I do?

You can do nothing, Mario Roering. You are not correct, as you very well know. Some of the sources CANNOT come from third parties, such information as number of members etc. and other sources ARE in fact third parties, even though you claim that they are not. Read the article and the sources correctly the next time, before you come up with more accusations. You are doing more than enough slander and defamation on your own external homepage already.

Best regards TenChiJin —Preceding unsigned comment added by TenChiJin (talk • contribs) 17:32, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Dear Neill, I understand that Peter Lee is now answering for you. To summarize the things that happen: Mr Lee makes an article about a karate style named Genseiryu. He tells the story from the point of view of the organization he is part of. The organization I am part of like Mr Roering changes this article according to a different point of view. Next Mario Roering tries to make an article from a neutral point of view and the decision is made Genseiryu Butokukai doesn't alter the article of the World Genseiryu Karatedo Federation and the other wway around. Mr Lee can't keep his promise and changes all articles and is finally blocked for a long time. This year he took up the idea to start slandering the name of Mr. Konno again one of the people started the organization World Genseiryu Karatedo Federation. Of course this lead to some changing of it by Mr Roering. Finally we are at the same point before the blocking of Mr Lee a few years ago. Now it seems there is a rule that statements should be proofed by third parties and you advised me to ask to mark th statements that need references. Well I followed your advise. Mr. Lee deleted these marks and put a reference instead. Most of the references are from the organization website the story is about so complete not a third party but from the storyteller himself. What is the next step should all sentences be deleted if there is no honest reference? If so I will be happy to do this job. If not please let me know. I have some proof that shows Mr. Lee is lying which I can't show directly on the websit but I can sent it privately to you. If somebody neutral can state the evidence is correct can the third person be mentioned as a neutral reference? Well I am waiting your answer.

Jewish mythology

Neil Check your history, the Jews were around in BCE 1300 and the Greeks emerged in 1000 BCE at least 300 hundred years. Also, the Deuteronomy is not my opinion, I give a reference to other that interpret that statement. I believe you are being nit picky and a tad spiteful. I concur with you about Harry Potter, that it is not classic literature, would you feel better if I added another heading, "Popular Fiction"? Get over it, everything ever written came from the Torah, it is much older then any text in existance, read Misplaced Pages its all there. But I apprciate your feedback.

Who do you think you are?

You removed My comments (which were true). I also changed some things which were untrue - BUT YOU put them BACK in. Winnipeg/Manitoba does not have another professional sports team which potentially detracts from it's CFL Blue Bomber fanbase - as was written in the article. This is completely false and misleading. Saskatchewan and Manitoba have comparable populations, however the Saskatchewan Roughrider's have the strongest sales of all CFL merchandise in the league... not followed anywhere close by the Blue Bombers. To boot that stupid write up on the Riders says that Manitoba has an excuse and it's excuse is that Manitoba has other professional sports teams actively vying for the population's popularity... Ok so WHAT professional sports team would that be? NFL... NBA... MLB... If there is any such team I have never heard of it... The Jets have been dead for over a decade and are not permitted to sell official NHL merchandise since they are no longer an NHL team - hence they can not be detracting from potential CFL fan sales. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LoTiKi (talk • contribs) 01:37, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
