Regarding Template:Place

Regarding Template:Place which you tagged for speedy deletion. There is actually template code on the page and it is transcluded to a couple of articles. I declined speedy deletion, but I have nominated it under WP:Templates for discussion as a template that can likely be deleted or merged, since something better likely exists.

Help

I recently made several edits to the page for Bob Babbage. These were added in good faith and with sources where applicable. There definitely wasn't any contentious material. Could you be more specific about why this entry was tagged? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.101.216 (talk) 16:30, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

Also, with regard to your other tag, the links were removed because they didn't have a Misplaced Pages page to link to and were added erroneously. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.101.216 (talk) 16:32, 4 February 2016 (UTC) @65.189.101.216: Could you link me to the edits in question? Dat GuyContribs 16:39, 4 February 2016 (UTC) Here you go...

Thank You

Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my user page, I haven't had that for a while! Zarcadia (talk) 19:06, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Protection

DatGuy, can you insert the semi-protection tag to the article The Fast and the Furious — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.88.250.93 (talk) 16:14, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

No, because the page isnt protected. If you want, you could add a request at requests for page protection. Dat GuyContribs 16:31, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Edits - Christopher Tambling

Hi I edited the page Christopher Tambling as it clarified, improved and corrected a number of issues on the page as follows:

  • He obtained an MA (Master of Arts) and FRCO (Fellowship of the Royal College of Organists).
  • He was educated at Christ's Hospital and was taught by Malcolm McKelvey there- it doesn't make sense otherwise.
  • St Peter's College is in Oxford, but as a constituent College of the University of Oxford it is referred to as St Peter's College, Oxford
  • 'Easy to get style' is also not a good English phrase, at least in musical terms. It is highly ambiguous.

Preston Doerflinger

Sited sources are court documents and state wide newspapers. How is that not reliable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.12.114.98 (talk) 18:59, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arteezy, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Uzbek (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.

Edit to Dowling Catholic page

Sorry I didn't leave an explanation for why I removed a section, "controversies" recently. I'm an administrator of the school, Ryan Osborn, and term "controversy" is not only opinionated, but overstated. The issue of reference was a Diocese of Des Moines issue, if at all- but not specific to our school.

Also, the president edit I made needs to be restored- it is not Nate Eichelberger, it is Jerry Deegan, Ed.D Thank you for your assistance Buffaloroad1972 (talk) 17:41, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

@Buffaloroad1972: Even if that is true, we cannot take your word for it. The content in Misplaced Pages needs to be cited by reliable sources. See Help:Citing Sources for how to cite a source. Also, please do not remove the section because even if you may not like it, the content is fit for Misplaced Pages. Dat GuyContribs 17:46, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

I appreciate your rationale and will update again with sources Buffaloroad1972 (talk) 17:57, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Gold Line

Hey,

Just wanted to give a link for the maintence facility. http://www.sgvtribune.com/general-news/20150412/new-265-million-gold-line-maintenance-yard-will-open-in-june-ahead-of-schedule — Preceding unsigned comment added by TJH2018 (talkcontribs) 18:40, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Your Changes to the Ishrat Jahan Case =

I have recently removed some content from Ishrat Jahan case  , but i have given the edit summary as "Removing sensationalist content" via this edit — Preceding unsigned comment added by an unspecified IP address

The content is not sensational because it is a quote. Dat GuyContribs 16:44, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

Escape from Tomorrow edit

Thanks for the message. I just wanted to add context and clean up the profanity. Tony Goldmark's review is highly questionable to begin with. How can a Disney fanboy possibly be objective about this particular movie? (He's not a notable celebrity or even an actual movie critic; its says he's a "Musician and comedian"...) He's also obviously trolling Drew McWeeny. Anyway, I just thought it needed to be clarified. If I'm wrong, I apologize. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.68.58.192 (talk) 17:23, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

note

I'm sure you'll note that I deleted your userpage. The person in question is eager for attention. Do not give it to him. DS (talk) 20:13, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

you have been named in a bogus SPI

You have been included in a SPI report. Please see here. I thought you should know so yu may defend yourself if you care to. deja vu Jilllyjo (talk) 05:41, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

Regarding the SPI

You're clearly not happy with me and what I said, so I'd like to take this opportunity to apologise. Although the other two were indeed confirmed, you were not involved. My apologies. --Ches (talk) 16:03, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

@Chesnaught555 and Winkelvi: Apology accepted. Some of these words, such as 'Obvious sockpuppets,' really did annoy me and were quite uncivil though. Dat GuyContribs 16:04, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
Indeed. I wasn't deliberately assuming bad faith (I did read your edit summary) - the evidence did suggest that you were involved, but of course that wasn't the case. Once again, mea culpa. --Ches (talk) 16:09, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
@Chesnaught555: Seems like Winkelvi isn't part of that apology. Feel free to ping him, but I won't because of the reasons above. Dat GuyContribs 17:07, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
