Michael David Weiss
So what kind of "cleaning" are you thinking about on his page? This is almost the only information you can find about him on Internet. If you can find more than that you should add it to his page instead of adding random tags everywhere. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 02:54, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi, I just went ahead and cleaned up a few of the issues I saw with the Michael David Weiss. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.  Thanks! -Aaron Booth (talk) 03:01, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello, I disagree with the personality section removal. I do understand that some of the content of this section was a bit subjective, but you could have ripped off only a part of it since the other part was kind of a fact. Also, since the Safety syringe case was a real case that other lawyer worked on, removing this header would make in harder to spot in my opinion. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 03:41, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * The header of the "Safety Syringe Case" could be replaced. Just with a standard header, instead of bold text.  This will keep the formatting consistent.  I will go ahead and do that.


 * Great thanks, I also moved the Death section to then end since the Other Mysterious GPO Deaths section is related to the Safety Syringe case. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 04:22, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * As far as the personality section goes. You could try to re-write it, however every sentence in that section contained one or more  weasel words. weasel words are beyond WP:Puffery. -Aaron Booth (talk) 03:55, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I've thought about re-writting this section, however, I found it hard because as you can read in the reference page it seems like a quote from someone who worked with him. Unfortunatly, there is no such thing as who really said that. I don't know if you have any other ideas about it, I could still try to re-write it without the weasel words. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 04:22, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh and please be carefull when you cleanup the section. I just saw that one of the reference name was now missing. I had to add it back, it was from Puncuture the movie unofficial website. Also, you added a "Infobox person" which is great, but you forgot to mention the birth place while it was written in the first paragraph. Regards ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 04:37, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * It was not missing (the reference), I didn't include the full reference, only the "ref name", everywhere but it's first occurrence.


 * Look at the history of the modification, they were no more description of the reference in the bottom of the page. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 04:49, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Also, I added a copy/paste tag to the article. After going back and looking at your source [], I have now understood what you said about that is what the source said.  Please refer to the Wikipedia policy on  copying and pasting text from other sources.  -Aaron Booth (talk) 04:43, 26 February 2012 (UTC)


 * The reference are there. I will read about that, by the way, next time read the full article and reference before adding anything to a page. Seems like you haven't read the page at all before adding the first cleanup tag. All of them could have been made in a single edit. ~ ForceMagic ~ (talk) 04:49, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

Action regarding your previous requests
Dear Mr.Booth, The article is now entirely re-written. I hope I won't see any of your tags on that page anymore otherwise I will consider them profanity and an act of sabotage. I strongly suggest you try to help the community by adding revelant information instead of posting tags everywhere without reading the entire article or the sources. Furthermore, from what I understood. A contribution is usually the act of editing a page in order to improve it. You can do it by adding or modifying missing/incorrect informations. I believe your help would be much more appreciated in the community if you took the time to make those changes happens instead of delegating them with "a tag". Good luck!

 * You may want to familiarize yourself with this page: WP:TEMP. And yes, I didn't realize at first that the problems present on the page were much deeper than initially observed.  When I found, for example, the problem with the personality section, the problem would require the entire section to be re-written anyhow; therefore there was no reason to check for copy/paste.  -Aaron Booth (talk) 17:52, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
