thread_title: Given name

message: Hello, i have added an external link to the page which has been removed. Prior to adding the external links to player pages on Wikipedia, i have read all the guidelines to adding links. I believe that all the links that i added are absouloty appropriate to the pages in which i added them. They are not simple advertising or promotions and they add significant info for users who want to know more about the players that are featured. I see no difference than to link a player page to his FIFA page or a South American Blog than to his IMScouting player profile, which has unique information which you can't find in other places. Please explain to me the difference? because this way the subject of the Wikipedia page is given more information in an external site, which is as i understand the reason for adding external sites. If you would examine the www.imscouting.com site you would notice that adding player profiles is in no harm to the users and further more many fans of the site around the world had added by themselves more than 500 links from wikipedia to IMScouting. I urge you to reconsider allowing me to post the links to player pages (some player pages on Wikipedia offer very little and our data can be very helpful), IMScouting.com is the only online website in the world which has contracts with more than 100 proffessional football teams as their clients- like CSKA Moskva, Bolton, Club Brugge, Anderlecht, Olimpiakos, Portsmouth, Dinamo Zagreb, Lille, FC Zurich, Leverkusen, Dortmund and many many more (the equivalent in the film industry to imdb.com- which is featured at Wikipedia), which is also why our information is the most up-to-date and reliable.

The article says, "He was convinced that the best way to enhance the Gainesville community was to establish a hospital at the University of Florida." The source says, "After being elected a Florida Senator, he dedicated his efforts to enhance the Gainesville community by building a teaching hospital. Though initially he needed convincing..."

Talk:Jan Jones (Georgia politician)

message: I have a conflict of interest with the subject of this article, but I don't think it takes an incredible lack of bias to see what's happened to this page. User:ScottNAtlanta made some pretty drastic changes back in 2014 that violate a number of WP principles. A huge amount of weight is being given to a section on campaign differences with a very negative slant, and a number of sentences have little or nothing to do with Jones herself. I'm happy to further discuss this with anyone who's interested, and will remove myself from editing this article if that is suggested. For now, I'm going to remove the SPA's addition and add other content. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 14:08, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  COI 

message: So beyond the SPA issues, this section is a very clear violation of WP:WEIGHT. Three paragraphs are entirely negative in tone and massive stretches have been made to include tangential facts about people who are related to donations. I'm not sure why at all it's relevant that "Leslie Aycox is listed in disclosure forms as 'Home Maker'." The AFC section is sourced to a wiki and includes information about the chair of the group, which isn't relevant to an article on Jan Jones. The Republic Report source has nothing to do with Jones. I'm not sure there's anything worth salvaging from here; donations from the payday industry are a very small percentage of her fundraising. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 15:18, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

message: Hey so I am just fixing up some grammatical mistakes and fixing up some language issues. 
I noticed parts of the article have been directly copy pasted from a cliffsnotes website so I am working on rewording it all (and just making it better). 
I am nowhere near complete and have left many of the parts I have issues with in for now, just making progressive changes since the depth of the article was fairly shallow. 
Anyways, if anybody spots any mistakes or wants to change something feel free.

Category talk:Neo-fascism

message: I see someone has added the Proud Boys article to the neo-fascist series. For what it's worth, I think this is wrong. I don't really care if Wikipedia slanders a despicable group like the Proud Boys, but I think it is a dangerous misunderstanding. The Proud Boys are striving for something like the Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–1990). Like Augusto Pinochet's government, you can certainly find lots of references calling it "neo-fascist". Determining if those references are correct, or if this is really something different, is more difficult to determine. I think Wikipedia gets the Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–1990) article right by not including it in the neo-fascist series. Consider since 2018, the Proud Boys have been led by Enrique Tarrio, an Afro-Cuban. Under the leadership of a black man the Proud Boys vastly increased membership, received Donald Trump's “Proud Boys, stand back and stand by” endorsement during the 2020 presidential debates, and led the January 6 United States Capitol attack. It doesn’t really fit with traditional white-supremacist neo-fascism. Gouncbeatduke (talk) 15:47, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Højbjerg

message: Hi. Three things:
*The location of Moesgård, including the manor, museum and the forest does not need a reference. It is solely a matter of postal classification.
*Travel books might be interesting, and I'm sure this book is fantastic, but they are not sources of much. They have a tendency to be a little reckless about precise information. To be specific, this particular travel book also falsely mentions that the museum is located outside Aarhus, which is not true. Højbjerg is a postal district of Aarhus and part of the city. 
*If you ever need to cite a travel book as a source of anything, don't. Invest a little time and effort and track down the real sources.
