DYK for Fiat 130 HP

On 27 April 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fiat 130 HP, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the 1907 Fiat 130 HP racer had wooden wheels? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fiat 130 HP. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

A beer for you!

I'm just now seeing all of the fallout of the sockpuppet activity on Universe Sandbox ². Great to know you had it under control! Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:25, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

You couldn't even put a bet on that!

At 20:15 on 30 October 2015 you completed an edit on Peppa Pig. A minute later, on the same day, you edited John Wayne. Just how does your mind work? Cassianto 09:30, 31 October 2015 (UTC)

There are some who would claim it doesn't :-) it was probably me just monitoring my watch list, which is an eclectic mess... Scr★pIron 14:10, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

What is going one?!

Why did you revert me on the Fedor Emelianenko page?

I added a referenced piece of information about his ancestry. Why was I rudely reverted?!

I will tell you the same thing that others have told you. You are trying to use WP:PRIMARY sources to enter potentially contentious information in a WP:BLP Please read WP:BLPPRIMARY, find an acceptable source, and then seek consensus on the talk page if you wish to make these changes. Scr★pIron 20:32, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

First of all, my source is not original research. It's an interview with Emelianenko.

Secondly, "Misplaced Pages articles should be based on reliable, published secondary sources and, to a lesser extent, on tertiary sources and primary sources." That means primary sources are allowed.

So I still fail to see why you're reverting me?

Echoing ScrapIronIV's response: your references are primary sources, and per Misplaced Pages's biographies of living people policy, such references are much more strictly enforced on these articles, and information added to them that is not referenced by a reliable source must be removed, especially if controversial. Your references do not meet these guidelines. Other experienced editors have also shared the same concerns. Continuing to revert this content back into the article will result in you being blocked. Thank you for understanding. ~Oshwah~ 22:09, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
