Hello, my name is Dylan Hackworth, I have a YouTube channel, so I wanted my channel to be seen on Misplaced Pages. I'm sorry that I was being disrespectful on Chad Hurley's wikipedia article. I did that because more people that are on YouTube my see my YouTube channel and check it out. I thought I would get more views and subscribers. I apologize for doing all of this. 2605:59C8:409B:4E10:8CC3:7F6F:DCC3:E972 (talk) 15:12, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your apology Dylan. In the future, remember that you can't use Misplaced Pages to advertise your YouTube channel or anything else. Happy editing! 🐔 Chicdat   18:17, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Jenrick Pornographer IP

Hey there,

Just to let you know, the edits that IP are making are legitimate and more than likely good-faith. Richard Desmond is noted heavily as a pornographer (see the bevy of citations on his wikipedia article) - and I think intentionally or not you might be straying into edit war territory.

So sorry. From a first look the edits look extremely defamatory. Still not sure this is very relevant to the actual sentence (about a mere donation), but I agree the edits don't look like vandalism. 🐔 Chicdat   12:22, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Kevin Trudeau

It's worth noting that, even beyond the conviction for criminal contempt (which in this instance was definitely a felony), Kevin Trudeau also has earlier convictions for felony credit card fraud and larceny. 24.182.239.226 (talk) 23:12, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

So sorry about the edit summary, upon further research I saw that contempt of court is in fact a felony, but was on vacation and had no time to correct. Anyway, consensus per WP:FELON is to not label prominent BLPs as felons without a discussion on the talk page. For instance we don't describe Donald Trump as a convicted felon in the first sentence. Hope this helps. 🐔 Chicdat   16:56, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
