Fred Wilcox
Hello Srich32977, I am a new Misplaced Pages editor just getting up to speed (I realize it will take a while). I hope that a veteran such as you will forgive me any unintentional errors in process I might make while trying to educate myself.
I am writing in regard to a living-person biography of Fred A. Wilcox, where you inserted a .
I do not want to simply remove your note because you make a defensible point, but the problem quote you cite would be easily fixed with a simple word change: instead of "broke" the story, the article should have said "illuminated" or "greatly expanded." I will add such a clarification to the References note 2.
Beyond this, I am adding to that bio several other articles from other sources that support the assertion in the section you found fault with.
I hope I've followed proper procedure here. Let me know what you think.
Best wishes, MSWriterEditor (talk) 21:25, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
- @MSWriterEditor: Another welcome to you. When I "tagged" the Wilcox article I also made a note on the article talk page about the tag. As I recall, I did not read the reference supporting the article text, so I simply commented about why the claim was dubious. Once you get a bit more experience in Misplaced Pages editing, please feel free to make the changes you feel are appropriate. (And you might explain the changes on the talk page also.) I will put the Wilcox article on my watchlist. And feel free to contact me for any other questions, hints, concerns, etc. – S. Rich (talk) 23:20, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Eamonn Butler
Why is Eamonn Butler subject to "discretionary sanctions"? I'd like to remove the notability tag; he is clearly notable...Zigzig20s (talk) 04:37, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Zigzig20s: Discretionary sanctions because of Ludwig von Mises/Austrian School connection (a big arbitration was held). Agree on the notability tag. Have at it. – S. Rich (talk) 04:58, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

WP Theology - question about 'Defunct status'
Greetings, Since I joined Misplaced Pages last year, I've been doing updates & article assessments for WikiProject Catholicism. Today I came across WP Theology and am wondering what (if anything) should be done with the articles tagged for WP Theology? Thought I would contact you as the defunct tagger from 00:36, 2 May 2014 Srich32977 (talk | contribs) . . (2,229 bytes) (+1) . . (no activity for more than 1 year, move to defunct status). Not urgent - just thought to ask since this is new to me. Regards, JoeHebda (talk) 15:13, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
- @JoeHebda: As I understand, you've seen the WikiProject Theology as being tagged defunct. From there you've seen articles tagged as being of interest to the WP. Tacitly you wonder what value is there in posting the quality/importance assessments on the various articles with the defunct project. Well, I don't think leaving the articles as tagged or un-tagged with the project makes much difference. (Projects serve to help Wikipedians focus on areas of interest to them and in turn they can improve related articles.) Still, it is possible that the defunct Project will be revived, in which case the articles of interest will get some attention and the quality/importance assessments will have more value. All this said, I'd simply leave the WP Theology tags and assessments alone. Thanks for your question and many thanks for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. – S.
