Box office conflict

Hi TRPOD, with regard to this edit, though I don't object to the range, I don't think there's a real conflict between the sources. The IBT value was published nine days or so after the BOI source. Additionally, the BOI value was written as a guess. It's hardly an article and it would otherwise deserve a {{better}} template. Surely more information or more sales could have influenced the gross in those nine extra days, and other sources [1][2] considered reliable by the task force suggest the gap might be smaller. Anyhow, the chief reason why I even care is because of the typical POV behavior of these IP editors, beginning with this guy, who proclaimed that nobody should change the value or the source, and more recently, the shouty IP user who came to the party with a chip on his shoulder and who seems to have a specific agenda to report a single value that matches his POV.

Badlapur

It seems there is a problem is recognizing the impasct of this film. The current IMDB rating is 7.9 with much of recognized reviewrs giving it around 4/5. Which means critical acclaim, and with 25Cr budget from India BO only the producers have recovered 50cR now..with overseas the collection is around 70cR, which makes it a commercial success too. But repeatedly these words are being deleted by you.

Secondly the word HIT is generally used when a film recovers more than double of its investment, so even 100cr films may nt be a hit. Jogider Tuteja, Taran Adarsh and Komal Nahata have all acknowledged Badlapur to be a Hit but again this reference is repeatedly getting deleted by you. And surprsingly while you retain figures from a trade journal you deftly edit out the same journal's observation on the same figures. Guess a little objectivity will help.

On another note, the 96.1 crore overall collection mentioned in the right panel ys thatis not correct, and neither the source its referring to that. It should be max 70 cr overall. So you may need to be a little diligent too instead of subjectively removing words which for some reason you are not liking !!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.99.68.154 (talk) 19:12, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)@14.99.68.154: IMDb ratings represent user votes, which are not considered noteworthy. Any crank with a mouse can influence the vote. We only care about professional reviewers from reliable sources. More importantly, however, is that IMDb is not considered a reliable source anyway. Koimoi does not seem to be well-considered by the Indian cinema task force, and any such proclamations of "blockbuster status", "super hit", "hit", I would remove as being unencyclopedic unless they were directly attributed to a source and made clear that they are an opinion, not a fact. A fact would entail describing profits with numbers. "The film budget was ₹NNc, the expenses were ₹NNc, the profit (or loss) was ₹NNc." We don't need any more fluffy promotional language in Bollywood articles; we have no shortage. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:49, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Wadorf Education-Anthroposophy-Rudolf Steiner

Hi @TheRedPenOfDoom:, I don't know if you're into this kind of stuff, or even like taking requests like this, but I think there is a group of articles relating to Waldorf education, Rudolf Steiner, Anthroposophy, and Anthroposophical medicine that desperately desperately need The Red Pen of Doom. They're rampant with POV, ADVERT, and CITE issues. I've been focusing on Waldorf education for now, but these articles have a long history of pro-bias and sock-puppetry from activists on both sides. They need third party reviewers. *cue star wars music* PLEASE TRPoD, You're my only hope! --Shibbolethink ^{(♔ ♕)} 00:06, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Yevadu

Accepted that the word decent was an opinion, but still decent is a general term and in the lead, it can be like that as it is just a summary. But using the phrase "received what IB Times called "decent" feedback from critics" disturbs the lead's flow. It is already mentioned in the Reception section in detail and finds no specific and necessary place in the lead except for the fact - decent feedback. Using "what IB Times called" in the lead also looks like promotion though it was not your intention. Can you please reconsider your decision? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:10, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Agreed. But don't you think it indeed disturbs the lead? When mentioned "decent feedback" in the lead, the viewer/reader would understand that it was IBT's opinion once they reach Critical reception section? Give it a thought. We aren't evading anything in the lead, but i just feel that the summary need not specify IBT's involvement and highlight the word decent. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:22, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for your explanation of this new (to me) word. We do not disagree about the need to be skeptical of this case. but your edits have removed useful (and skeptical) information and references. Your blanket reversions appear high-handed. Please don't start an edit war on this. Another user has already chastised you for acting as though you own the page and your response was to threaten to block them, which rather confirms the point.

Malayalam cinema

You have made four reverts to the Malayalam cinema within 5 hours. We have a bright line regarding such behaviour outlined at WP:3RRNO, which is that a user who reverts three times in 24 hours is blocked to prevent them from reverting again. You need to explain the rationale behind your actions on the talkpage of the article. You may have a valid point, but that point is going to get lost in an edit war. Under the guidance essay WP:BRD, when someone sees something in an article they disagree with, they may be Bold and change it. If someone comes along and Reverts them, they don't get into an edit war, they go to the talkpage and Discuss the reason for their edit. That's what you need to do right now. Be aware, if I see any more editing warring on that article I may lock down the article in whichever version I come upon, and/or block those involved without any further warning.

Hi. Maybe it's not clear but I started editing the Park page in order to help and find a middle ground in order at some point to remove the NPOV tag. I provided a bunch of links presenting the other side. Some of them were already in the talk page months before I arrive there. I am not trying to push any POV and I sorry that I may have given this impression.

I am not good in article building (even though I try to improve) and I was hoping my contributions would be the start for someone else to improve the page further.

Please work in the direction to create a neutral page for Park containing all the info from both sides.

As you may see I also left questions in RS about the links I provided asking for more opinions and the conclusions will be beneficial not only for Park's page.

Anyway. Keep the good work. Thanks.

Thanks for your trust! I will take care of the article but this will take a little while.

Hello, I think to gather works at one place is basically a good idea, but in this case I prefer to put them where they were before => It doesn't take much extra space, I will not add more images and the article will be in line with the German and French version. Not to forget that I will work on more languages like IT end ES, so the structure of this article should basically be the same.

Endurance International Group

Greetings. I'm not sure why you would decide to avoid the "talk" section for Endurance International Group and revert the article once again, based on a judgement call you've made. You're actually removing valuable data from our encyclopedia because you feel it looks like a "directory". If that's the case, then by all means, do feel free to contribute by editing this "directory" into a paragraph that does not look so directory-ish to you - but retains the information. Please do not destroy value in articles because you do not care for the formatting. Also, please be careful here as these reverts are close to violating the sprit, and subtance, of the WP:Revert only when necessary rule, and that is never good for editors or the project.

Why are you always in the habit of redirecting TV shows articles. I had removed routine promotional plugs and added reliable sources of The Times of India, Indian Express, The Hindu. These newspapers are very big and popular in India. These newspapers are not routine promotional plugs, but are reliable sources. I want your reply or I will again restore these articles: Mohi, Tum Hi Ho Bandhu Sakha Tumhi, Yeh Ishq Nahin Aasaan (TV series) and Gulmohar Grand 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:03, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

If you think that the sources which I have linked in those articles are promotional blather, than which sources are reliable? Promos of these TV shows have been aired on the respective TV channels and people can search those topics on Wikipedia. Now you tell me, if you keep on redirecting TV shows articles, where they will find those articles on Wikipedia? 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:16, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

If they fail in establishing significant coverage about future event, then how many sources do you need to claim future event? I think 2-3 sources are enough to claim future events. If I find more reliable sources on the web, I promise you that I will add them to these articles. Please reply. 122.176.10.48 (talk) 13:34, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Thanks very much for contributing on the articles which you were earlier in a habit of redirecting those articles! I should say that it is the best to contribute on articles, rather than redirecting them. 122.176.10.48 (talk) 18:27, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

100 Days of Love

Why would one regard reviews from Nowrunning.com and Yentha.com as non-professional. Nowrunning review is written by Veeyen who has been reviewing Malayalam films since mid nineties in Indian Express's Screen India magazine. His reviews are published online since at lease 1998 making him one of the first online critics for Malayalam films. Also, Yentha.com is a much appreciated news website based in Kerala. Please reconsider your edit. Thanks. Malayala Sahityam (talk) 19:50, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

Regarding Venus Project redirect

Normally a redirect is proposed using the Wikipedia:Proposed mergers instructions. Alternatively, an AfD discussion may result in a redirect.

See discussion at Talk:The_Venus_Project#no_there_there.

You say there is no indication consensus of AFD has changed, but this is just speculation without going through the proper procedure.

Perhaps a Wikipedia:Third opinion is needed. Jonpatterns (talk) 11:33, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Need help with promotional articles

I've found a series of articles that seem promotional to me, and I'd like to hear your opinion on them, as you know more about this area than me. Though the films are American productions, the sources are frequently Bollywood-related, and some of these sources look suspicious to me. Can you look at Rohit Gupta, Another Day Another Life, and Life! Camera Action...? (Corridor film and Midnight Delight (film) are just stubs and apparently haven't gotten the promotional treatment yet.) My concern is that apparent SPAs are editing these articles to promote Rohit Gupta and his films. I'm not a very good judge of Bollywood sources, but I can tell when an article is promotional ("The making and success of the film is widely considered as an important touchtone of the digital-age film movement...", "...received universal acclaim and its message widely praised..."). I don't really know where to begin on cleaning up these articles. If you've got the time, please take a look. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:10, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Holidays and Indian film releases

There are sources indeed. For the record, generally few Indian films releases coincide with festivals like Sankranthi, Ugadi, Dusshera, Deepavali and Christmas. There were films whose makers fixed their release date to take advantage of the holidays. Article can be created but it is a herculean task and requires huge man work and time, which can't be found for now since examinations are being conducted currently for many groups. I believe everyone shall be free probably after June 2015. Then i'm sure many can show interest. Thank you! Pavanjandhyala (talk) 12:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

I'm going to comment on the relevant talk page, but I think your answer here is somewhat unsatisfying. From what I can tell, the content was taken from an actual print magazine, (link here page 52) so there is a presumption of editorial standards. What's the problem?

@CosmicEmperor: They have at least 14 issues, each having somewhere between 50-70 pages. There are numerous issues available for purchase here. I can't tell how often they publish (maybe quarterly?) and I notice a lack of "Volume/Issue" information, but that sounds more like a "they gotta get their shit together" situation more than anything.

@Destructor3: because you used a primary source in a manner that is not an acceptable use of a primary source. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:27, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

So you are saying that an article about how many members of a subreddit there are is more reliable then the numbers directly from a subreddit? Destructor3 (talk) 15:29, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Yes. For Wikipedia, the secondary source making their informed analysis of the primary sources is in fact more "reliable" than Wikipedian editors doing the same. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:34, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Wow. This website is in DESPERATE need of change. That is the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard of. Destructor3 (talk) 18:53, 3 May 2015 (UTC)'

Also, its not something thats up for interpretation. ITS A FUCKING STATISTIC. Its ridiculous how biased and un-neutral the admins are here.

There is all the analysis of how much that that particular site actually represents something that has no official site, how many of the sign ins are actual supporters, how many are trolls, how many are there to voice objections and how many are merely socks attempting to boost the impression that the harassment group is representative of gamers rather than merely a fringe of a fringe. As Mark Twain stated, "There are 3 type of lies: White lies, damn lies and statistics." -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 19:23, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

So, by your logic, if i went out made a blog and said that gamergate has 8 million supporters i could just just that as facts. Your logic is so flawed it is silly. There are so many people that support gamergate that a hashtag about pizza of all things was made trending just because of how many people they had do it. SJWs like you are an even smaller group known as the vocal minority, except you have a bit of power. But i'm sure that like everywhere else with cowardly, white knight, sjw mods you will just ban me.

(talk page stalker) @Destructor3: That wouldn't make any sense at all and no experienced editor here would encourage you to do that or tell you such a thing was okay. See WP:SELFPUB or WP:RS.. If you're concerned about being banned, (indefinitely blocked is often mistaken as "banned") the quickest way to have that happen is to go down the ignoble avenue of personal attacks.

Name lists

I realise that you have explained it but I can't get my head round this. Someone has described it as "pedantry" and, well, it certainly seems odd. Sure, it could be converted to a dab but I notice that we do have a category for lists of people who share a name. What it very specifically is not is a list of people from a caste. That was the entire point of the exercise, given that last name is not verification of caste. Indeed, that particular list is an extremely good example of the general principle because Helen Reddy is in the mix and the chances of her being a Reddy are as near to zero as makes no difference.

I think you probably need to take this to some sort of community decision-making forum, not the list talk page. I am not unduly fussed whether it stays as a list or as a dab but I suspect that those obsessed with lists and with categories might have something to say. - Sitush (talk) 11:26, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

2016 Obama's America edits undone

Dear Red Pen of Doom, Last year I made numerous edits to the wiki page about the movie 2016 Obama's America for which I was the lead producer and executive producer. I founded the company that created the movie and yet I was nearly completely written out of the wikipage, unlike the IMDb page (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2247692/fullcredits). I made changes to correct errors about my involvement and other people's involvement, which in many cases is vastly overstated. As an example, I founded the business and hired Gerald Molen, yet he is credited on the wiki page for my role and activities. This might be complicated for you because there was a significant legal dispute between myself and Mr. D'Souza, which I attempted to provide a clear understanding of the dispute and referenced news articles that weren't merely press releases from Mr. D'Souza about his claims in the legal dispute. Lastly, I thought it was appropriate to include Mr. D'Souza's criminal activity that he himself references the movie as leading to his prosecution. Because this is my livelihood, I would appreciate if the wiki page changes I made were restored. I can provide additional documentation such as publicly available agreements forming the company and my position as the president, lead producer, lead executive producer, and co-founder of the company and movie. Thank you for your time and consideration. Jayumpire (talk) 22:50, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

I do now, and I've updated my talk page, and my co-worker has put appropriate COI banners up. I'm very sorry for causing extra work.

Edits at Rajacenna

Hello TRPoD, could you take a quick glance at your major edits recently on Rajacenna? It appears that you removed a number of sources as being cites to Wikipedia, when actually they were cites to news pieces on official news channels, but where the submitter had misformatted the wikilinks to the names of the channels, thus making it look like they were citing Dutch Wikipedia rather than simply indicating that the channel whose work was being cited. I believe you removed a number of valid sources in doing so.

Also, a number of the points you removed had citations, but not inline ones, and I was working with the submitter to improve formatting to make this clearer. I had considered rolling back and leaving you a message, but the submitter has already started re-working the article. To avoid any back-and-forth confusion and hurt feelings by the novice submitter, it'd be great if you could drop in to give it a second look and see what has been removed that might've been valid. Thanks! MatthewVanitas (talk) 08:54, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

You participated on the page previously. I pinged @Lou Sander: here to see if he still has an interest in continuing to work on the article/discussion, such as by evaluating consensus here or considering this edit, but I got the sense I'd be dragging him to a page he no longer has a real interst in, which I don't want to do (see @BeenAroundAWhile:'s point here), but the article still has a lot of promotion and primary sources, hardly includes anything about the things she is primarily notable for, and contains a dedicated controversy section, I feel there is reasonable support for not having[12] (as a dedicated section that is).

I was wondering if you had any interest in working on it with me and/or potentially any others that show an interest. I have already collected all the sources I know of, put them into citation templates and thrown together a reasonable first draft.

Osgoode Hall Law School

Hi again...I don't know what your problem with that page is but you seem to want to prevent anything that you view as positive from being added to it. That school is an affiliated institution of the university so why did you change it? If you don't want me adding alumni to that page (why?) then why don't we collaborate on that part of the page? Regarding your last edit and removal of history here are my thoughts: a) whatever history you think you perceive that bothers you is irrelevant to how you should treat what was on that page, b) if additions to a page have a positive effect on the perception of the subject matter, that doesn't make them an advertisement, c) there was nothing inappropriate (or inaccurate) on that page, d) several parts of wikipedia guidance suggest that you should NOT delete content that is verifiable and that the proper behavior would be to improve the article by contributing rather than deleting, e) it specifically states in the wikipedia dispute resolution guide that you should NOT delete salvageable text. Cheers. Paulydee (talk) 20:48, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

I think it's normal to consider that anyone who takes it upon themselves to remove half the page obviously has a problem with what was there and you seem to say that you DO have a problem. But whether or not a fact added to a subject page might happen to promote the subject should not actually constitute a problem, nor does it in itself give you any particular grounds for behaving differently with that page than with any other. So your behavior is contrary to the guidelines and the spirit of wikipedia. If the lack of citations on that particular page is what your are intervening over then you should do what others do which is to put 'citation needed' and/or suggest to move it to another page, and/or collaborate to find some sort of solution. But you seem to be admitting that in fact that isn't why you are intervening. Rather, you're saying that you have a problem with that page in particular because it bothers you that there have been single purpose accounts with an interest in adding things to it, not just because there weren't citations, which actually makes your deletion intervention groundless and inappropriate. Single purpose accounts that add things to a page without violating the rules and spirit of wikipedia are not in themselves grounds for deletion, either in the past or in the future. I see that despite my proposal, you have no interest in collaborating with me. Paulydee (talk) 21:31, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

If you are still unclear then maybe we will have to do some sort of dispute resolution since I already took the trouble to elaborate on my position about why I disagree with your editing behavior. As for personal attacks I think you should stop making them about me by continuing to saying that I'm making them. I just explained regarding your reference to 'problem'. Since I haven't made any supposed personal attacks since you should stop saying that I am continuing to doing so.Paulydee (talk) 21:51, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

Impersonation Accounts

A request for dispute resolution was posted at the dispute resolution noticeboard about Osgoode Hall Law School. In checking whether the preliminaries had been taken care of, I saw that one of the editors was User:TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom. I clicked on the talk page link, only to discover that it wasn't you, but an indeffed sockpuppet of a banned user, User:WindyPegg. The account could probably instead have been indeffed for impersonation, but it was indeffed as a sockpuppet. It then appears that the sockmaster has at least two other accounts that impersonate your user name that are also indeffed as sockpuppets. You must have ticked her off somehow. Based on editing history, I would guess that you deleted unsourced BLP material, requested deletion of a poorly sourced article, or something similar. Are you aware of these banned impersonators?

The one that was mentioned at DRN really is TPROD. The inexperienced editor got the user name wrong, using the signature as the user name. The actual dispute really is with TPROD. There are between 15 and 20 blocked socks with either clever or crude parodies of TPROD, and multiple impersonations of an admin also. The real TPROD had repeatedly warned her in October 2014 for adding unsourced and defamatory material. He has an inexperienced critic and a dishonorable enemy. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:35, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

I think TPROD was aware because the impersonator posted two messages to this talk page back in October! It looks like it arose out of dispute over the Marilou McPhedran article last fall. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 15:38, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

thank you all. Yes, I am aware of a number of impersonation accounts. The recent name mixup at the DRN just a new editor mixing up my signature for my name. Its kind of interesting that it also happened to lead back to another set of promotional accounts hyping other Canadian universities /academics but that is probably just a coincidence.-- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 17:05, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi there. I noticed this edit you made earlier today. I would appreciate it if in future you avoided making such edits. If you were to continue to make comments like this you might well find your ability to edit curtailed, which would help nobody. If you have anything helpful to say on the subject I would be very happy to hear it, but I don't think this was, and I think it arguably breached the injunctions in place at the article. Take care, --John (talk) 17:13, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

I find it hard to believe that linking to an essay that directly addresses the ill founded concerns of the previous poster is inappropriate in any way. " Wikipedia's policies around this kind of thing are exactly spot-on and correct. If you can get your work published in respectable scientific journals - that is to say, if you can produce evidence through replicable scientific experiments, then Wikipedia will cover it appropriately. What we won't do is pretend that the work of lunatic charlatans is the equivalent of "true scientific discourse". It isn't. —Jimbo Wales, March 23, 2014" -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 13:12, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

List of unusual deaths

Hello
I notice that my additions to this page were removed a few days ago. Which is fair enough: I hadn't appreciated that entries had not only to be unusual (ie rare/unique, or remarkable/interesting) but also needed a source or sources stating they were unusual (though that does seem a pretty high bar, incidentally). But the thing I am posting for is your edit summary, which said "source...lumps it with the episodes from [Huntington'] own fertile imagination". So, are you saying it never actually happened? That seems a shame; Henry's fate was a staple (if you'll pardon the expression) of history when I was at school. The world feels a little smaller (by a couple of plates of eels, at least)...

(talk page stalker)@Menuka456: TheRedPenOfDoom is not the only editor who reverted your changes. I did as well. Look at how you left the article in this version for example. "The contestant pairs included [6] , included ,[6] ," If you're going to edit an article, you should be sure that it makes some semblance of sense and that it is formatted properly. If you're not sure how to format things like bulleted lists, you should make a request on the article's talk page, or look at other articles to figure out how it's done. The second time you submitted the same changes, you again left the article in a problematic condition. That's why it keeps getting changed back. TheRedPenOfDoom explained that to you in this edit. Familiarity with the series has nothing to do with formatting content cleanly. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:02, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Diamond Games and flag icons

RPOD, you need to read MOS:ICON in full: flag icons are expressly permitted to be used in international sports results tables to represent the sporting nationality of athletes:

"They are useful in articles about international sporting events, to show the representative nationality of players (which may differ from their legal nationality). Example: List of WPA World Nine-ball Champions."

The Diamond Games results may be an overuse of flags [13], and there may be a more efficient way to use fewer icons, but the use does not violate MOS:ICON. In fact, the use in the Diamond games article is extremely similar to that in the WPA World Champions list provided as an example by MOS:ICON of a permitted use. Please take your issues to the MOS:ICON talk page, where other knowledgeable editors who understand MOS:ICON will be able to discuss this with you, rather than edit-warring.

Also, please be aware of recent changes to MOS:ICON that have clarified that a single flag in an athlete infobox to represent the national team or sporting nationality of an international athlete is permitted. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 14:06, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi TRPoD, I have a small request, if you have a spare few minutes. In response to the challenge set on Jimbo's Talk page, I undertook to create a draft Article on Bonnie Ross, Head of 343 Industries, a notable woman in the video games industry. I have completed a rough draft, and am now seeking advice from experienced Wikipedians on potential improvements. It is only short at this stage, and will not be the best Wikipedia article, but neither do I think it the worst. If you have time, could you please look it over here.

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are indefinitely topic-banned per the standard Gamergate discretionary sanction, which covers: all edits about, and all pages related to, (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed.

You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/GamerGate#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Zad68 19:07, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

On a personal note, it brings me no joy to do this, but your behavior there has clearly been making the editing environment worse instead of better. Please do continue to edit in other areas that aren't so incendiary. Zad68 19:09, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Although the standard exemptions for BLP apply, I think it would be best if you stayed away from Ellen Pao for anything but obvious BLP violations of the sort that I had to revdel (Godwin's Law applied) as she falls under the "gender-related topics" clause as a consequence of her litigation. Some admins have taken a narrower view than I have of whether an entire article or just a section is off-limits, and that view seems to enjoy some consensus. However, if nothing else your presence allows the IP troll Bishonen blocked to claim justification. I've semi-protected Pao's article for another three months since IP trolling started immediately on release of the previous protection. Acroterion (talk) 15:05, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Since when is a standard employment law case "controversial"? - because its filed by a girl ? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 19:12, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

A gender discrimination lawsuit seems like a very clear-cut example of a gender-related controversy. I don't think you ought to be banned from all gender-related controversies, but I don't make the rules. Maybe you'd like to sponsor me for WP:RFA. Rhoark (talk) 19:24, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

There is nothing "controversial" about a gender related employment related law suit- unless you think that women should not be able to sue their employers if they are discriminated against? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 19:29, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

A "gender-related lawsuit" would appear to me to fall under "gender-related topic dispute or controversy." However, since you've stuck to objecting to Breitbart as a source for a BLP, with which few would argue, and to reverting the odd notion that her nationality is somehow "Asian-American," I see no problem based on the way these things are being enforced these days. I'm more interested in denying nutrition to the trolls. Acroterion (talk) 19:48, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom in its wisdom endowed a snack fund for the trolls; it's tough to ask poor TRPoD to single-handedly malnourish them. I’d like to point out how often people like TRPoD, NBSB, Strongjam, and I have been on the scene to cope with BLP matters like Ellen Pao’s nationality, and how seldom our resident crew of Gamergate supporters have addressed been there. Nor are the majority of these being caught by routine watchers: it's always these familiar editors plus a handful of engaged admins who take a great deal of flack from Gamergate for doing their job. This dynamic ought to be changed, but it beats me how to bring the change about unless and until the community manages to make it unnecessary for people like TRPoD to mop up these continuous messes. MarkBernstein (talk) 20:27, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

off topic

As I've mentioned before, I keep some troublesome pages on my watchlist, but other people are way more on top of it. I'm glad they're there as a first line of defense, but if they stepped back and Ellen Pao's page called her Asian-American instead of just American for 30 minutes instead of 10 minutes, I would not lose sleep over that.

To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your 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.
Consensus was reached for this project ages ago. If you do not understand the project you should focus elsewhere. This is not the "Bahamut" you know. Scr★pIron^IV 00:40, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

User:ScrapIronIV I don't see any edits by TRPOD on that page, please clarify. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 00:49, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

My apologies; corrected the notice to Bahamut (Dungeons & Dragons). The issue is tag-bombing an article in project space which adheres to project standards. While it is not optimal, forcing the Dungeons and Dragons project to adhere to real-world notability guidelines would effectively destroy the project. Scr★pIron^IV 00:56, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

LOL @ScrapIronIV: projects do not get to ignore policies because "if they followed policy they would not be able to host a free fansite on Wikipedia's dime - WP:POKEMON spoke to that. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 02:52, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

And yet, Blastoise still exists. I appreciate your contributions; if you focused on important stuff, you could actually make a difference. Feel free to tilt at windmills if it pleases you. I'm just surprised you stepped away from Gamergate and the dramah boards long enough to read an article. Scr★pIron^IV 03:28, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

@ScrapIronIV: Because Pokemoners were able to supply third party sources, as policy requires. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 04:41, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

He was topic banned from Gamergate, and rightfully so. --Krimuk|90 (talk) 03:31, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

This editor has a history of neglecting consensus and tries to run a one-man show. Barring his removal of spam links from articles, most of his edits are in extreme bad-faith and invariably create a hostile editing environment. --Krimuk|90 (talk) 01:34, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

Where consensus is based on policy, I follow it. Where "consensus" or claims of consensus are not based on policy, I challenge them. As is the right (and frankly duty) of every editor. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 12:23, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

This editor, as it happens, has a history of respecting consensus and of insisting that, when consensus and policy together are defied, Wikipedia will respect its pillars and its consensus. MarkBernstein (talk) 17:52, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

PolyEdit does support PDF export

Red, hi. Just noticed that you undid my revision (669420382) that makes clear that PolyEdit does indeed support PDF export, which the unrevised WP article strongly implies PolyEdit does not do. That implication is incorrect. I am a user of PolyEdit Lite and use it, in fact, precisely to make PDFs. The feature works perfectly.

You stated the following as the reason for undoing my revision: "unsourced promotional claim". First, I am the source of the information, a "primary" source: I have personal, direct knowledge of the fact and made explicit in the revision why it is I believe the article's implication is incorrect. I have no need of citing unreliable secondary sources for my revision, such as the "reviewers" unquestioningly cited in the article itself, the ones who made the mistake to begin with by not properly evaluating the software. Second, my revision is not "promotional". It is a factual correction of incorrect information that appears in the original article, not a promotion for the software. This is important: Wikipedia articles must be, first and foremost, accurate. To leave the article with the mistake untouched is a disservice to Wikipedia and its readers. Correction of errors and invalid information constitutes most of my contributions to WP. Third, my revision is not a "claim", an assertion unsupported by facts, but a factual statement that can easily be proved/disproved by downloading the software, which is freely available on the Web, and following my indications on how to obtain the PDF export option, as stated in the revision. A proven (and readily provable by anyone else) assertion is not a mere "claim". The onus falls on those claiming the contrary (the article's unreliable sources [1][2][3]) to show why it is they believe their glaring mistake to be correct.

When I was researching PolyEdit for possible adoption, I read the WP article, of course. On reading that it did not support PDF export, I immediately rejected it. However, I kept running into other reviews that vouched for PDF. So I downloaded the software and checked things out for myself. That very same copy is the one I now routinely use every day, including right now. Having been led astray by the WP article, I'm sure you will appreciate why it is I had to go back to correct it.

I have reinstated the revision in the article. Please feel free to make further revisions if you think they might be required. But please, do not remove the correction about the PDFs. It still smarts to look back and think that I would have missed out on this fine piece of software because of errors in Wikipedia.

Kasamh Se

Thank you for your recent edits to the Kasamh Se article. I see that excessive plot detail is an ongoing issue with this particular article, should we revisit this issue on the talk page? Regards, Yamaguchi先生 19:11, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

This is a provocative argument. These articles are a bitch to maintain. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:59, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

@Cyphoidbomb: they are a monster to maintain merely on sourcing and content- there shouldn't also be extra maintenance issues from unnecessarily complicated formatting. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:03, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Harshita Gaur

You tagged Harshita Gaur for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G4 as a recreation of deleted content. The main concern at the AfD was notability and lack of sources. The current version is not substantially similar to the version deleted by AfD, IMO. That version had no cited sources, this has quite a few. What the outcome of a new AfD would be, I can't say. If you like I will try to confirm my decline of the G4 at WP:DRV. DES ^(talk) 00:25, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Baahubali

Looks like you have a strong interest in this film-related article(s). May i know why so? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 04:41, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

@Pavanjandhyala: I dont particularly care about the film at all. i care about Wikipedia maintaining neutral encyclopedic articles that accurately reflect the reliable sources, and currently Baahubali is the article on my watch list that is most in danger of failing on all of those points due to influx of fanboy editors (surprisingly I am not seeing an influx of flamers which also usually accompanies a big new release). -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 04:47, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

The promoting guys are in majority always. Well, almost zero flamers is something amusing this time. For the euphoria now, i think the article shall get better i.e. GA/A/FA only after 2017/18. What say? Pavanjandhyala (talk) 05:00, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

my bet is that after ~ a week, they will be moving from The Beginning to The Conclusion with speculation and hype and claims of how big of a super-duper-ultra-colossal-mega-hit the second part will be. 05:07, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Of course. These fanboys are not going to stop their enthusiasm. They can show that at the BO, not here completely. I think you have to stress more on the conclusion (the screenplay reveals that major drama shall be there in the second part only which was supposed to be its second half before splitting into two films). But at least for stability concerns, i think the GA/FA plans shall be put to rest for sometime. Pavanjandhyala (talk) 05:13, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Please stop mindlessly deleting posts re: Dave Cornthwaite

Dear TheRedPenOfDoom,

I've already asked you several times to stop deleting posts. It takes a lot of time to research, write content and reference. If you have any suggestions please make them without deleting. I would welcome you to add content also; however, do not keep deleting sections because you do not think they are appropriate; this is subjective and mean.

Many thanks, Chris — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjsmillar (talk • contribs) 17:29, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

List of shared universes

I don't know what you're up to, but don't try to use the word "unsourced" as an excuse to to do whatever you want. You want a source, all separate pages around Wikipedia are the source...if you look closely to find the answer.

Look for this page too.

Fusionem (talk) 02:35, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

@Fusionem: You can't use Wikipedia pages as a source for other Wikipedia pages. I strongly advise that you don't use that as a reason to revert so much of what somebody else has done. PeterTheFourth (talk) 02:46, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Fusionem We also don't expect readers to chase references all around the project. They should be presented in-line, after the content they support, so that they will appear that bottom of the article and a reader can quickly access it. Also, TVTropes would never be considered a reliable source as it, like IMDb, Wikia, TV.com, and even Wikipedia itself are not considered reliable sources, because they are all user-contributed. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:04, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Then instead of criticize me and disparage what I had to do, each one of you should copy the unsourced information in the page and keep it inside your own sandbox before deleting that...of course, until you find the worthy sources you ask for. Because I know that even if I knew how to add references, you would never allow it, OK? Problem solved. Everyone happy. Fusionem (talk) 05:25, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Fusionem, I understand that it's not fun to have content you've submitted be reverted. It's not a personal attack on you. This is a community encyclopedia and sometimes stuff changes fast. The content hasn't been removed entirely from Wikipedia, you can copy it yourself to your own sandbox and let it stew until you can find some sources to support it. We are in no hurry. If you're not sure how to add references, that's an easy fix: there's information at Referencing for Beginners and there is a built-in citation tool in your editing window. When you click edit, you'll see the word "Cite" at the top right of the light-blue toolbar. Select a template, fill in the blanks and voila! Hope that helps. Please don't take it personally. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:48, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

My Humble Request

Please don't revert my edits especially from Awards Section of the article Kasamh Se. I am trying to make the article more concise and I have even provided reliable sources wherever necessary. Besides there are many articles where Plot Summary exceeds your so called prescribed word limit and also there are no references. If you just take a look at them only then you will know. If you are giving this much attention to article Kasamh Se, then you should give your special attention to all other such articles. One such article is Saat Phere - Saloni Ka Safar. Please, don't unnecessarily remove my edits. Also I have been editing wikipedia since last three years. I know very well what a wikipedia article must look like. 15 July 2015, 12:47 AM IST. I am not adding any unsourced content. Stop reverting my edits. It is a sheer vandalism. Wherever sources have not been provided, citation needed tag has been fixed. Why don't you look in my above mentioned article. I know what I am inserting are only reliable sources. And if you find the source unreliable, simply add citation needed after it. Those who can find better sources can add them. Why are you simply removing the edits ?

July 2015

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Conan chronologies. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. 99.53.112.186 (talk) 17:44, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

baahubali

As someone mentioned above I can't understand why you are so much interested in movies. In this case I would like to talk about Baahubali movie I always see you modify it from Telugu to Telugu/Tamil in the list of highest grossing-Indian movies although it is primarily a pure Telugu movie which is also made in Tamil with few scenes and shots. Also every time I see you modify & include Baahubali movie in the list of highest grossing Tamil films. Baahubali movie didn't even gross around 45 crores in Tn & Tamil version. It grossed around Rs 170 crores(Telugu version) in Ap/n & Kar States and Rs 45 crore in international markets from Telugu version alone totaling nearly Rs 215 crores and the dubbed Hindi version and malayalam version grossed nearly 95 crores (both from Telugu). How could you include it in the list of highest grossing Tamil films list. First time I'm seeing that a movie which didn't even gross at least Rs 50 crore (leave about share) in original language(Tamil) from both domestic and international markets which is very less in number, is being included in the list of highest grossing Tamil films. Its absolutely ridiculous. How could you do that? So I kindly request you to modify changes accordingly and remove the movie Baahubali from the list of highest grossing Tamil films. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Padukati raju (talk • contribs) 19:53, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

Reporting an User's poor article's

Hello TheRedPenOfDoom,

I studied lot of Wikipedia rules, through your Wikipedia edits. I'm very much thank for the same. Today I seen one article creator who creates about 16 articles that may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline, he included references may not meet according to the Wikipedia guideline . So is it against the rules of Wikipedia? his username is JithDominicJose04 , please go through the articles created by him, he is creating articles for every unknown persons. It's against the rules, isn't it? So can you please tell me whether I was mistaken or not? Josu4u (talk) 17:33, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Baahubali box office

why are you including Baahubali in the list of highest grossing Tamil films you are saying it as a bilingual then why are you including Telugu version box office collections in the list of Tamil movies. Entire Tamil version from India and the rest of the world grossed only 55 crores out of 401 crores and the rest 355 crores is from Telugu version alone (235 crores) including Hindi and Malayalam (120 crores) dubbed versions itself. So you should remove it from Tamil list. All the official trade sources rentrak india , taran adarsh, trinath, ramesh laus ( Tamil trade analyst) said Tamil version from entire world grossed 55 crores in 15 days, sreedar pillai said the total box office collections - padukati raju — Preceding unsigned comment added by Padukati raju (talk • contribs)

@Padukati raju: We are including it in Tamil and Telugu because it is a bilingual film made in Tamil and Telugu. Pretty simple. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:24, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

iam asking one thing why are you adding Telugu version in Tamil list you are mentioning it is bilingual then Tamil list should have only Tamil version box office why are you including Telugu version in it. it is not a dubbed movie so both languages should have their own collections each. No movie in the world will be listed in two languages of highest grossing films. Also it is primarily a Telugu movie which has no Tamil connect to it.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Padukati raju (talk • contribs)
