Doomed (novel)

Why do you keep on removing "Doomed(novel)" from the Doomed page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stergiosss (talkcontribs) 19:07, 18 February 2013 (UTC)


did your recent edit stem from The Oregonian being somewhere declared as now failing WP:RS?

I can agree that Geek Magazine has not yet have their reliabilty determined, and understand THAT source being removed... but where and when was it decided that authored articles (even if brief) in The Oregonian were not reliable sources? Sure, the author is reporting the novelist's announcement, but do we now have an assumption that that newspaper no longer has editorial oversite or a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy? Schmidt, 00:36, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
The typically reliable source is putting none of their reliability behind the claim, they are simply repeating a claim made by someone with a conflict of interest -and so in this case, no it is not a reliably sourced claim to be made in wikipedia's voice without specific textual context. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 00:43, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
The COI would be if the newspaper article itself were authored by the novelist rather than by an independent journalist choosing to report upon his announcement... OR if were shown that the novelist specifically paid The Oregonian to simply post "an announcement". As The Oregonian does not specialize in unsubstantiated gossip, I do not think we can assert or assume without evidence that a typically reliable source is somehow not putting their own reputation for fact-checking and accuracy and editorial oversight behind something they publish. I have acted on our suggestion that the names need "contxt". However, you are welcome to state at WP:RSN that The Oregonian does not check what they publish.

unwanted deletion of reviews

hai are you from india ?. if yes its a real pity that you dont know reviewers like nowrunning.com who have been reviewing movies for years and you are deleting all the reviews from these sites and you are depriving readers from the right for information . this is cruel that you are using wikipedia for writing and maintaining only what you like . please stop this procedure. Vinayachandranlovedr (talk) 06:03, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

when most of the reviewers are considering it as readable review you are trying to put in your personal thoughts. this is truely depriving people for the right for information. Vinayachandranlovedr (talk) 13:44, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Edit of Rader Page

Anything medical is commercial. Just look at the medical system in the United States. Should we call all those medical treatment commercial. Clinical is the correct word. Please look it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grammaring (talkcontribs) 23:41, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Please state the source for commercial you are talking about. (talkcontribs) 23:46, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Please keep article neutral and based on sources. (talkcontribs) 23:50, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

The correct grammar is clincal. Please look it up in a dictionary. (talkcontribs) 23:56, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

The treatment is not in the US for it to be breaking the law. As you can see from the sources it is in the Dominican Republic. Stop putting libelous information about a living person. (talkcontribs) 23:56, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

The recent change is correct. Thank you. I am going to fix the grammar and add additional information from the current sources of the article. Do you have any issues with that? (talkcontribs) 0:10, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

I don't get it. You ask the community to correct the grammar on Rader's page and yet when I correct it, you change it back. When you say "he published", it means he self published. Stating that he self published is grammatically incorrect. Self should not be in the sentence. • contribs) 0:10, 22 February 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grammaring (talkcontribs)

Wow, I have looked at your past edits. You are ruining what wikipedia stands for. Please stop with the editing wars. State your concerns in the talk pages. Grammaring (talkcontribs) 4:15, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

TheRedPenOfDoom do not remove my comments in the talk section of Rader's page. I will report it to the admin if you do it again. Medstudent213 (talkcontribs) 12:09, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

Rediff and Bollywood Hungama are not spam links

Check my edits. Rediff and Bollywood Hungama links provided are not spam links Snigdhasinghsweet (talk) 13:30, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at William C. Rader shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.  Ronhjones  22:42, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Gomolo is a leading source for Indian movies

It seems you're not fully aware of the site gomolo.com which is a leading authority site on Indian movies. Leading publications like Times of India, IBNLive etc refer gomolo for various information on Indian movies. It also has a valid Misplaced Pages page outling the details. Please don't delete the references. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vuttaa (talkcontribs) 13:49, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Potential conflict of interest

You seem to know a lot about Rader and his background and his publishing.

Hello, Grammaring. We welcome your contributions to Misplaced Pages, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Misplaced Pages, you may need to consider our guidance on conflicts of interest.

All editors are required to comply with Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

  • Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
  • Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
  • Avoid linking to the Misplaced Pages article or website of your organization in other articles (see Misplaced Pages:Spam).
  • Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Misplaced Pages's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Misplaced Pages when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. -- User talk:Grammaring 22:48, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

I am quite willing to say publicly that I have no connection to Rader and know absolutely nothing about him other than what I have found in the reliable and not so reliable sources that that have been included to create both hatchet job and beatification of the man and what my google-fu has found in trying to get the article to approach something that does not make a mockery of our polices of WP:BLP / WP:V / WP:NPOV and WP:MEDRES. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 22:54, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your message regarding the verification of accuracy in articles that I review. I have responded and would really like to hear back from you, as I would like to determine what the typical policy is regarding this, as I am a bit confused as to what the "de facto" expectation is versus the "de jure" rule at WP:REVIEWER. Thanks again! Jackson Peebles (talk) 04:58, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Stem cell educator

Hallo, I see you have removed materials from Stem cell educator. This passed detailed and very proper scrutiny at AfD. I note you are concerned to apply the policy on medical references, which is good and right. However, there is no reason why a 'Reception' section - whose job is, after all, to describe the reaction or reception by the world's media to the subject of an article - should be written to the standard required of medical claims. The standard for 'Reception' of something is what it is everywhere on Misplaced Pages, namely that it is true that the press said something of relevance, and that what they said is reasonably substantial, and that the claims are properly cited - which they are. We cannot insist that the journalists conduct medical research; they have neither the time nor the training, and that is not their job.

Similarly, you have removed some truthful description of what the 'stem cell educator' does, viz the material flows through in a certain way. This is not controversial and should not have been removed.

Therefore, I'd be grateful if we could find a way to restore the article. I do not believe that it is correctly tagged, for the reasons given. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:33, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 25

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alex Jones, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New World Order (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
