Your contributed article, 2015 Dallas City Council elections


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2015 Dallas City Council elections. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Dallas mayoral election, 2015. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Dallas mayoral election, 2015 – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. —teb728 t c 00:44, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Richard Sheridan
Hello Alwaysremember,

You removed well-referenced content that Richard Sheridan is an anti-gay activist and added the unreferenced claim that he is a retired engineer. If you want to mention his previous career, please provide a reference to a reliable source. I believe that calling him an anti-gay activist is accurate, neutral and well-referenced, based on how Dallas newspspers describe his political advocacy. He focuses on opposing homosexuality, doesn't he? Cullen328  Let's discuss it  05:36, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Cullen328, I was PERSONALLY there Saturday 7-Mar-2015 ~4pm to witness his interview after applying for the endorsement of the Stonewall (LBGTQ) Democrats, and he has family members who are lesbians, as do I. He is an anti-racism activist more than anything, but that is not something anyone can smear him for. There would be no objection to calling him a religious-right activist, biblical-sexuality activist, or anti-corruption activist (all of which have made him unpopular in the media), as he would frankly bear any of these descriptions, but anti-gay rights further extends an accusation of bigotry that is mis-reported. DCdanielcaldwell 07:03, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Please provide reliable sources that describe him that way. Your own observations are original research. There is another newspaper report that includes a voice mail he left for a reporter in which he repeatedly uses obscene angry language denouncing gay people and the reporter. I heard it. He is a bigot in my opinion, but let's leave it as it is. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  14:48, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Mr. Sheridan's own writing does not get a spot on the election page, but I did provide the more recent DMN citation for him as an engineer. DCdanielcaldwell 16:38, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Alwaysremember, I am not finding mention in any of the sources that Sheridan is a retired engineer. I also do not understand the anti-sodomy statement you added. The sources call him and his political literature "anti-gay". Where, precisely, is the "anti-sodomy" thing discussed in the reliable sources? Cullen328  Let's discuss it  20:43, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Cullen328, When you replaced the link at 18:43, 25 March 2015, you deleted the reference to the top post. The anti-sodomite remarkS (plural) come from the audio recording you removed at 19:12, 25 March 2015‎. DCdanielcaldwell 03:29, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * If your user name is Alwaysremember, why do you sign your posts as "DCdanielcaldwell"? That's very confusing. As for the audio file, that is a primary source, and a very low quality one as well. It is utterly unreliable as an audio file without commentary. How do you know that voice is Sheridan's, and more importantly, how does anyone else know? I think it probably is Sheridan, but maybe it is a troll trying to make Sheridan look bad. And he sure looks bad after listening to that voice mail message. We report and summarize what reliable sources say about things, not what people allegedly say about themselves. And the reliable sources I have seen so far can be summarized in three words: He is an "anti-gay activist". Cullen<sup style="color:#707">328  Let's discuss it  03:53, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

Cullen328, I use the 4-tilde thing to sign, and it inserts DCdanielcaldwell. A couple weeks ago, I got a message saying that due to some kind of conflict between platforms, I would have to change my username from Alwaysremember, and I did, but my login was not affected. In other words, I blame it on the programmers. :Meanwhile, I was a little surprised at hearing the audio file, but I know the man; it is his voice. The audio file was posted by the Dallas Morning News reporter whose voice mail message Sheridan was just returning. He can be belligerent, but his intent is not "anti-gay" even if his calloused approach understandably makes people want to frame him that way. You could editorially call him a Bible-thumping religious fanatic, and I would leave it alone as being consistent with what I have seen. Insert "government" between anti-gay and activist, and the implication is sufficiently corrected to explain that he does not protest against the people, but against the government openly endorsing sodomy. The difference is a fine line, but the reasoning follows the same line of thought that says the Catholic and Mormon churches are "anti-gay" when in reality they don't want straight people having sex outside of biblical marriage either. Under the Golden Rule, I do not want to be called something I am not, so I will defend him from being called something he is not.

2015 Dallas City Council elections
I didn't delete anything. If I had then 2015 Dallas City Council elections would be red rather than blue. The consensus at Talk:Dallas mayoral election, 2015 is for one combined article not two separate articles. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 08:48, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Daniel DC Caldwell, I
I do not want to be impolite, but please allow me to express my standpoint. This person page was inappropriately and ARBITRARILY flagged for speedy deletion under the A7 tag specifically contrary to the guidance of that criteria, then the flag was PROMPTLY contested showing the article cited MULTIPLE credible, notable, relevant, and reliable sources (at least one for every part of a claim), and the article was still removed without ANY discussion. Please revert and restore the deleted page, and feel free to call me, 512-761-5740.
 * "It is irrelevant whether the claim of notability within the article is not sufficient for the notability guidelines. If the claim is credible, the A7 tag can not be applied. Often what seems non-notable to a new page patroller is shown to be notable in a deletion discussion." Meanwhile, by comparison, Keyaira D. Saunders, another candidate, has not been so rudely discriminated against. Who am I supposed to report this abuse to?

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Alwaysremember. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:


 * Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. <b style="color:navy">Neil N </b> <i style="color:blue">talk to me</i> 06:41, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Blocked
A majority of your edits and recent comments make it evident that you do not understand the purpose of Wikipedia. This comment is particularly telling, as is the editorializing (per your own words) at this AfD. Wikipedia doesn't exist to provide balance or exposure in an election; it exists to provide information about notable subjects as reported in reliable sources. Most of your edits suggest that you are writing from the standpoint that, as a candidate, you have the right to an article about yourself, ostensibly for the purposes of self-promotion (this linkfarm and associated comment indicates just that). In short, you do not, and your repeated attempts to get your autobiographical article restored (even though, per the comments at its deletion review, it was rightly deleted) indicate that you're here for one reason, but that reason is not to build the encyclopedia. As has been told to you many times, this is an encyclopedia, not a place for you to promote your election campaign or to create "balance" in the world of said election, and your repeated insistence that you're being treated unfairly is unfounded and ultimately disruptive (i.e., via inappropriate page moves and posts in multiple locations about your deleted article). Until such a time that you can convince the community that you are here to improve the encyclopedia rather than promote yourself and your campaign, I do not see any benefit in allowing you to edit, and I am blocking this account per WP:NOTHERE. -- Kinu  t/c 17:08, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for blatant use of Wikipedia for election stumping purposes, disruptive editing, WP:SOAPBOX issues. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Kinu t/c 17:09, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Note: as indicated above, "indefinite" does not mean "infinite". However, any unblock request must indicate that you actually understand the purpose of Wikipedia and will stop using it as a means of promotion and/or soapboxing. -- Kinu  t/c 17:11, 29 March 2015 (UTC)


 * , in answer to your question, "At what point [...]?", (to show my thinking was reasonable and rational, not "Unbelievable") I was impelled to volunteer information I saw as helpful, appropriate, and even necessary when I looked up the election months after the campaign began and found then only one candidate or race, showing either neglect to mention the others or a slanted and biased POV intentionally excluding the others. Either way, the pillars encourage being bold and taking risks, exactly what I did.  Since not all candidates have a web page, I did not try to link  by my name, but instead, starting with the mayor candidates, unopposed, and my race, I did web searches for verifiable references.  When one of the other candidates was understandably smeared (because even the "reliable" sources often misrepresent facts) as an anti-gay hate-monger, which I know to be not true, I stood up to defend him even though I really have nothing to gain from that personally.  Sadly, the effort came back to bite me with this block.  When another candidate's supporter that I did not know (and that I probably would not vote for) started making a stub, I tried to help keep it from being deleted like mine, and I only mentioned hers in comments defending mine to point out the inconsistent treatment.  As a liberty-minded individual, I did not realize that talk-page explanations of equality principles justifying push-back against self-serving oppressive governments would have me targeted as a troll.  Furthermore, I was NOT intending the "implied threat" of sockpuppetry, but only attempting to thoroughly demonstrate that I did, as quickly as I could, read the guide, although admittedly not all the additional reading. With that said, could I at least get the Standard_offer, or is that out of the question?DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 03:51, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 04:04, 30 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Nobody is saying you are a vandal or a troll. But some of what you do is disruptive because you are trying to make Wikipedia something other than an encyclopedia. If you want to continue editing Wikipedia, you have to accept that it is an encyclopedia. The fact that you continue to defend yourself indicates to me that you do not accept that.
 * As an encyclopedia, its pages are articles about notable subjects, written from a neutral point of view. Our operant definition of notability is significant coverage in independent reliable sources like newspapers. Since you as a notary public running for the city council do not have such coverage, you don’t get an article. And your early editorials about incumbent advantage and voters denied the right to vote were not written from a neutral point of view. —teb728 t c 07:27, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * As a question after re-reading the WP:42 et al - Would those with a +/- interest be welcome to request other editors on an article's talk page to screen and implement recommended changes that they cannot do themselves because of the WP:COI problem?
 * Basically, my point is that a lot of valuable and useful NPOV input is being excluded because those interested enough to contribute information are disqualified from doing so. You can see that after discussion, several of my points were kept, being true and meritorious from NPOV.  In other words, rather than being directed to avoid the topic(s) completely, I believe COI editers should be told on the guideline pages that advocating with explanatory remarks on the Talk page(s) may be acceptable and to provide there any additions and corrections that would genuinely improve the article(s) for encyclopedic reference.
 * For example, although it is not my race, I would want to cite the definitely significant, useful, and arguably notable detail that Dallas ISD  is concurrently/simultaneously having school board elections for seats 1 (overlapping), 3, and 9, as covered in The_Dallas_Morning_News, Dallas_Observer, and D_Magazine, among others, and should be mentioned on the Dallas_municipal_election,_2015 page, even if not given its own article. Does this sound like an approach you could allow me to take? Will you forward that bit on for me? Recall: I am not even asking to be unblocked before the election, but to have it expire in a couple months. My timely response now is because I want to be able to contribute later, having learned the system a little better.DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 21:09, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Given that you are blocked, the purpose of your talk page access is for you to discuss your block and anything related to it (for example, to request an unblock). Per policy, others are not allowed to edit via proxy for blocked editors, so asking for someone to do so is inappropriate and may be considered disruptive. -- Kinu  t/c 21:54, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Okay,, allow me to point out that the Presumption of guilt does not apply here because, from your cite, the exception "they can show that the changes are either verifiable or productive and they have independent reasons for making such edits" completely applies to what I asked. Furthermore, I chose that example as a positive way to contribute to the main article I was blocked in connection with ("related to it"), so my questions should not be construed as inappropriate or disruptive, but per policy exactly. Although I had not thoroughly reviewed Template:2nd_chance yet, I was trying to follow the "proposing improvements" instruction in the appeal guide. For the 3rd time, I am not asking for immediate block removal, but only that it be set to expire in a month or few. Since it lines up well with my interests and self-professed expertise, I would be glad to give educated opinions here without any reasonable community fear that I would be campaigning because the election will already be well over!
 * And let me point out that linking to "presumption of guilt" is irrelevant here, since Wikipedia is not the U.S. justice system. You're clearly attempting to direct others into editing an article on a subject in which you have, per your own admission, a significant conflict of interest. My advice: if you truly want to be unblocked in a month as you claim, find something else to do for a month and come back then with a well-articulated reason. Wikilawyering isn't helping you at all. -- Kinu  t/c 22:44, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Kinu, in laymen terms, I was just making the assertion that the tone I see is highly critical and negative toward every point I try to make. Basically I was asking for the equivalent of being able to know when I could get out on parole.  And in regard to the "justice system", we don't have one.  It is just a penal system.  If life were all about justice, we'd all go to Hell.  I don't want that.  I ask for mercy and grace, and I really try to give them to everybody else when I am in a position to do so.DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 23:46, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
 * As indicated, "when [you] could get out on parole" is when you can convince the community that you would edit in a manner that is constructive and in line with the goals of this encyclopedia. I try to be a reasonable person as well, but failure to get the point is not something that can be fixed by a third party. Your comments and apparent lack of understanding of the actual reason for your block suggest that this may not be in the near future. You've wasted enough of the community's time and resources, and thus I am revoking your talk page access. Feel free to use the appeal method below at some point, perhaps in six months, to request an unblock. -- Kinu  t/c 04:10, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

I have reviewed the discussion above from six years ago and requested an unblock. I am still interested in politics, both as a candidate and as someone who wants to make objective, verifiable, neutral point of view contributions. I still think it is ironic that suggesting I make no direct edits but rather just suggestions for others to vet and implement is interpreted as a basis to deny me the opportunity to make suggestions that other editors would see value in. I'm not trying to be disruptive, and I laid off of Wikipedia for basically six years to prove it, without making sock puppets or block evading. I understand that managing a conflict of interest may require asking a third party to approve my suggestions. I'm asking for permission to ask for approval, citing my sources when I do so, and I think that if you let me make suggestions, other editors will agree with them, so that we can collaborate uncontentiously and nondisruptively. I'm trying to improve (both myself and) the wiki, and I don't find being politically active as a reason to permanently block a contributor from contributing. Will you let me now, or am I forever condemned as persona non grata? DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 21:38, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Recommendation
In addition to WP:COI and WP:NPOV, I think it would be useful to read the very brief guidelines for Notability (people). The bar is set pretty high for including politicians below the national level in Wikipedia.

Other recommended reading includes Verifiability and Identifying reliable sources. All content must be verifiable to published independent reliable sources. And although the Dallas Morning News may be a reliable source, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, (and even Wikipedia) are not. —teb728 t c 22:30, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Unblock request
.

Let's think about this... My sandbox or user pages were regarded as link farms. I can promise not to bother building a user page nor to make any stubs, sandboxes, or direct edits. I'm pretty sure that more than covers every behavior that might have been considered to justify a block. DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 22:44, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

Two questions
I am a user that was blocked more than six years ago for having a conflict of interest, and I am still denied the Standard Offer. My specific sins that the administrators consider to be unpardonable include: (1) I discredited a mis-characterization by a more senior contributor that inappropriately defamed a political candidate. (2) Trying to consolidate information sources for my sandbox or user page created a link farm. (3) I created stubs without adequate citation. (4) I defended my actions. Let's think about this... I can promise not to bother building any stubs, sandboxes, or direct edits. I'm pretty sure that this commitment more than covers every behavior that might have been considered to justify a block. What else did I do so horribly wrong? And what else, objectively, do I need to do to qualify to come back on a probationary basis since you clearly don't think I will ever merit a clean slate?

I'm just following up since my questions have been here for more than six months with no acknowledgment. DCdanielcaldwell (talk) 22:07, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
