3 Kanya help!
I have recently learned that the film 3 Kanya was banned in a Government theatre in Kolkata. I am not sure if we should add this information in the article. At least two newspapers have covered it The Times of India, IBNLive. So, RS should not be a problem! The important question is if we add then how and where? We do not have any section on "Controversy" etc! Any idea? --Tito Dutta (talk) 05:26, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- Pardon the brevity, I'm on a mobile. I'd say start a Controversy section explaining why the film was banned and by whom. That's certainly notable information. I considered that it might belong in a Reception section, along with reviews, but using Borat as an example, I think Controversy is the way to go. --BDD (talk) 17:11, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, yes, thank you! I am not confident to start a controversy section (he header) since it'll have only 2 or 3 sentences! I am not seeing anything related to TWL here, are you applying for WP:TWL --Tito Dutta (talk) 06:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- O, I don't think so. "Many reliable sources are hidden behind expensive paywalls, only accessible through select schools, universities, or employers," but since I work for an academic library, I have access to many of those sources through my university/employer. I generally don't feel that lack of resources is a barrier to my editing. I'm happy to share information as available. --BDD (talk) 22:02, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- Not lack of resource, lack of content might be a problem! :-D we have only 1 sentence in hand: the film was banned from screening at a Government theatre in Calcutta. We have open RS. Links in my first post in this section! --Tito Dutta (talk) 22:22, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

Was I canvassing?
At User_talk:Emmette_Hernandez_Coleman#Second_warning it looked to someone like I was canvassing when I informed people who participated in Talk:Palestinian National Authority#Organization or Place? of Talk:Elections in the Palestinian_National Authority#Requested move. Do you think I was canvassing? I'm asking because if looked to someone like I was, It's probably best to get an opinion other then my own (please respond on my talk page).

Also considering that you made that reply on my talk page your input might be useful at Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Canvassing_by_user:Emmette_Hernandez_Coleman — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk • contribs) 01:15, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

What did you mean by "Organization"
At Talk:Palestinian_National_Authority#Organization_or_Place.3F there seams to be some confusion over weather by "organization" you meant "an autonomous geopolitical entity with specific territory - similar to Hong Kong", or if you meant an "organization" like the Government of Hong Kong or the Kurdistan Regional Government". Could you clarify please? Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 02:59, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
Mentoring a new editor
Hello, BDD. I am hoping to edit copy here at Misplaced Pages. I am quite daunted by the whole "getting-started" thing. Could you be my mentor? Are you still available? Cellequilit (talk) 23:37, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- Certainly! I'm still wrapping up my Thanksgiving holiday, however, so I'll get back to you about how to proceed tomorrow or Monday. Will you watch here or should I contact you on your talk page? --BDD (talk) 18:49, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
- Either way works...I got the orange message strip on my page when I signed on, which then linked here. Thanks for taking the time to reply during the holiday. :) Cellequilit (talk) 02:36, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Sorry to be late!!
I know it's been two weeks, but I replied to your questions at Talk:Haibun some time ago. I was initially too bothered by the immediate attacks my response received from the WP:COI/WP:SPA/WP:HOUND Tristan noir, and failed to notify you directly of my response. Basically, he posted an article on Misplaced Pages that cited a Woodward book that had not even been published yet, and while he claimed the article was based on verifiable, objective facts, he protested when I deleted the inaccurate Woodward publications and asked him to find secondary sources. On the Haibun article itself, I proposed a compromise in which one link stays and the other, since it contains inaccurate/offensive statements, gets deleted; he complained that this was not an acceptable compromise. He was therefore clearly not interested in building an encyclopedia article, but in advertising the Jeffrey Woodward link.
Additionally, the mere fact that he created the "tanka prose" article is itself circumstantial evidence that he is linked to Mr. Woodward, since no one other than Woodward and his cronies have ever heard of "tanka prose", which Woodward made up sometime between winter 2007 and August 2008 (which is when Tristan noir posted the article on Misplaced Pages).
