			Hello Wikidan61, I'm not sure this is the right way to do it (I'm a PhD, but I'm new around here). I think you either have some kind of problem with me or with the Slavic people, because you attempted to undo whatever I explored and added as regards Slavic people, for some reason. I hope you are not a racist, but I'm sure it's just a wrong impression I'm getting out of you. You claimed the evidence on Waltz Slovenian ancestry is 'thinnest,' while I provided you with a link to the Austrian Humanities of Vienna, and there are a series of articles on Misplaced Pages (and the best Austrian encyclopedias), clearly not written by myself, on each and every of Waltz' ancestors up to Alojz Urbancic. You say it is not relevant, but ethnicity and origins are reported on each and every actors' article on Misplaced Pages. So I really don't understand what your problem is.

Norman Stevenson

I received the following email from Carlwark. I prefer to discuss Misplaced Pages matters here rather than by email so I will transcribe and respond to the email here.

Carlwark wrote:

It’s now a week ago that, as you suggested, I posted on Talk:Norman Stevenson a proposal for expansion of the article about him plus request for comments on two sources. But no response from anyone.

Please advise how to proceed. Is there now any reason not to write and post the fresh expansion of the article which I proposed on the Talk page? It would be limited to information from published sources and would carefully keep in mind all your earlier comments.

I look forward to hearing from you.

@Carlwark: based on the discussion you've included at Talk:Norman Stevenson, and in the absence of any dissent from any other user, I have no problem with your moving ahead with the changes you have suggested. In writing this material, please remember to keep your writing neutral. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 11:39, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Dennis Dillon Misplaced Pages

Hi Dan, thank you for the policy update. Would like to update Rev. Dennis Dillon's bio. Can you update on our behalf? — Preceding unsigned comment added by NY Christian Times (talk • contribs) 20:36, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

@NY Christian Times: You may have noticed that I've nominated the page for deletion. I was unable to find any significant reliable sources about Dillon from which to generate an article. The expansion that you offered was not based on any reliable sources. If you'd like to see the article expanded, I recommend the following steps:

Follow the directions in the block message on your user talk page to request a new username.
When a new username is assigned, be sure to disclose your conflict of interest with the subject of Dennis Dillon.
Edit the article's talk page and list the changes you'd like to see to the article, with valid sources to verify the changes you'd like to see.

The article will not be deleted for at least 7 days (and may not be at all, depending on the outcome of the discussion), so you have some time to manage this. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 20:49, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Malek-Ashtar University of Technology

Hello, The Malek Ashtar University is a public university is affiliated with the Iran government, not military. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehsanfarzadnia (talk • contribs) 19:17, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

@Ehsanfarzadnia: Not according to the reliable sources that you've been deleting. If the sources are in dispute, please address the matter at the article's talk page. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 19:22, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

Dear WikiDan61, I am graduated at Malek-asghtar university of technology. I am sure that this university is affiliated with the iran government and is public research university. my research profile is https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Ehsan_Farzadnia2 if you have any question about my university (MUT), feel free please. Best regards Ehsan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehsanfarzadnia (talk • contribs) 19:39, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

@Ehsanfarzadnia: Your personal sureness is not a valid source. Since the existing reliable source identify this university as being under the control of the Iranian military, that is the fact that we can verifiably publish. If you can find a reliable source that says otherwise, please introduce that source at the article's talk page so that the dispute between the sources can be discussed. (Some sources may be more reliable than others.) WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 19:48, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

My valid source is that I have educated at this university. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehsanfarzadnia (talk • contribs) 19:59, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

@Ehsanfarsadnia: That's not how Misplaced Pages works. Sorry. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 20:01, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

The authoritative source is myself because I have educated at this university and families with all of activities of these university. please please do not change this content. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehsanfarzadnia (talk • contribs) 20:02, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

@Ehsanfarsadnia: Mere attendance at a university does not make you an "authoritative source" about that university. If you can't find published information to dispute the published information that claims this as a military university, you have not leg to stand on. Your repeated removal of cited material from the article has already been noted as vandalism: your continued behavior in this manner will likely get you blocked.

receptor theory

Thanks for your take. As you imply, the page took a narrow view of receptor theory: its history as applied to pharmacology. However the title of the page is receptor theory, and receptor theory has been much broader and deeper than applications of pharmacological interest. I tried to touch on some of that history. I could start a new page called receptor theory in immunology, but then the current page should more accurately be called receptor theory in pharmacology. This starts us down a slippery slope of unnecessary fragmentation and disambiguation --probably not the best way to disseminate knowledge. I really thought my addition would be welcome and made the page more interesting and informative than it had been -- I'm sorry you disagree. CPDeLisi (talk) 16:08, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

@CPDeLisi: Please make your argument at Talk:Receptor theory so that the rest of the community can weigh in. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 02:28, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

United States International University

Regarding: Denied Publishing as Alliant International University Page Already Exists.

1) A) USIU merged with B) CSPP to form C) Alliant International University. And B) CSPP still has its own Wiki page. Based on this point wouldn't this logic justify a) USIU to have its own page? EXAMPLE: https://en.wikipedia.org/California_School_of_Professional_Psychology

2) USIU is now defunct. It was a storied not-for-profit university with a sports, academic and cultured background. USIU produced professional NFL/NHL players, academics, researchers, politicians and actors/singers.

3) The Result of this merger: C) Alliant International University, declared in 2015 that is now a for-profit-corporation with no sports team or makeup of the original university. How can this still be the only page for USIU which was an accredited, internationally recognized not-for-profit University?

4) I feel the now defunct USIU needs to be represented and there is further evidence below of a community trying to do that with this Alumni Wiki Page.Shouldn't that content be on a USIU page, or link to it? https://en.wikipedia.org/Category:United_States_International_University_alumni

If USIU a non-profit with a +50 year legacy and Alliant International a 5 year old for-profit-corporation with no legacy are the same thing, then can you please show me how to capture all of the history, story highlights, and citations work that I have just compiled on my USIU draft to fit into the Alliant Page?

I believe these two things to clearly be two different entities just like B) CSPP which is why CSPP has its own page. https://en.wikipedia.org/California_School_of_Professional_Psycholog

Thanks (@WikiDan61:)

Taxonomy & the pillowsock

I looked for the AN/I report you'd filed, and found it had already been archived. Unfortunate that I missed the chance to pre-empt that; I'm about to log off and have no time to file a new one. Their behaviour remains disruptive, e.g. , , , and . After that last one, I warned them for edit warring. Because their editing style is so persistently disruptive, and their knowledge of wikicode far beyond most new users, I'm beginning to wonder if they might have been banned under another username, either from another project, or from here sufficiently long ago that they've escaped notice in this incarnation. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 13:24, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

regarding my edits

Hello, sorry I haven't responded earlier but i didn't understand how. I reuploaded the edit since, according to the article itself, a newspaper of record is one "with large circulation whose editorial and news-gathering functions are considered authoritative." JN is the daily with the most prints and the most confidence in the general public while Expresso is the newspaper with the most confidence overall, while also being one of the most sought after nation wide. This to me seems to be enough to consider them both as such, unlike 2 less rated and less available newspapers, whose sources are almost a decade old, while mine are Reuters' reports from last year. You will also find that I improved my edit, after seeing that weeklies were up for consideration, and improved the sources as well. Please take this into consideration, as grounds for editing the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Editorptg (talk • contribs) 21:40, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Restore sourced information. Please discuss. If the information is out of date, please provide sources to show that.

Hi, you reverted changes I made for SRC. I'm not sure what sources you want to cite. I work there. That article is SUPER out of date. While I want to put in more useful content, it seemed good to get the old stuff out of there asap.

Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by JeniQ (talk • contribs) 21:28, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

@JeniQ: Your own personal knowledge from working there is not considered a reliable source. There are may programs listed on the page that are sourced to reliable sources. If these programs are now defunct, you'll need to cite an equally reliable source to indicate that. Further, if the programs are defunct, they should still be noted, with the wording changed to indicate these programs are no longer active. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 21:37, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

@WikiDan61:: So, if I edit the SRC website to show that a program is ended, then I can link Misplaced Pages to the website that I just updated? Is that kind of what you're suggesting. Sorry, I don't have Misplaced Pages edit experience so I don't know all the etiquette. Thanks.

@JeniQ: If you have enough connection to the SRC to be able to edit their website, you likely have a conflict of interest and should not be editing the Misplaced Pages page at all. However, if you have permission to edit the SRC website, and if the SRC website notes that a particular program that has existed in the past is no longer active, I think we could take the SRC's own website as a reliable source for that fact. I would recommend that you then edit Talk:Semiconductor Research Corporation and make an edit request there, providing the source. The SRC page should still list the programs, but note that they have been discontinued. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 12:00, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
