Jian Ghomeshi - needs semi-protect?
Hi Bearcat,

Thank you for your comments! I am trying to understand. (I will reread them once I finish this request for clarification.)

It seems you find only two edits objectionable; namely the addition of the "Trial by Media" and the "Rubin Report" however you've deleted all of the edits.

Could you please undo your reversion and simply edit out the offensive sentences or paragraphs? If not, why not?

Perhaps there is a problem with my style of writing. Perhaps it would be helpful to suggest changes in wording and style and provide an example rather than simply deleting everything.

An example of why I'm confused by your action is the deletion of a paragraph from the Trial of Jian Ghomeshi page. The paragraph discusses the problems arising when the alleged criminal conduct occurred a long time ago. I think this is a valuable addition to the "Trial of Jian Ghomeshi" page because it informs readers about why the complainants may have had difficulty testifying. My addition was essentially a small quote from the court decision. The addition was referenced to the court case and the specific paragraph so there's no concerns regarding its accuracy.

I very much appreciate the sensitivity of this page.

Thanks!

 * I am not in favor of restoring WSDavitt's edits. Most of the ones they transferred from the Trial article had originally been on Ghomeshi's article but were removed from there.  The addition of many sections and subsections on both articles were an eyesore and totally unnecessary as most of the sections are quite short to begin with.LM2000 (talk) 00:49, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Neither am I. The edits are opinions, OR and are clearly POV. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 01:58, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Bob Random for Articles for deletion request
Hi, I check out the Bob Random article and there are no citation sources, could you request the Bob Random article for Articles for deletion. The Bob Random article will be debating for deletion without a single citation source, Thanks. 2001:569:70DD:7500:39EA:19D8:DF90:EF4D (talk) 03:52, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Did you review the Bob Random article, if you see there is no citations, Request it for Articles for deletion the article has no citations and fails notability. Don't forget that. Thank you. 2001:569:70DD:7500:39EA:19D8:DF90:EF4D (talk) 04:53, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Donald Orazietti
When I came back from my summer vacation I noticed that you had deleted the article I created regarding a member of my community, Donald Orazietti, for the following reasons: (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion). The article was factually based and not to promote or advertise Donald Orazietti's business. Rather, the purpose was to show Mr. Orazietti's historical achievements as a significant member of the Sault Ste. Marie community. In addition, these historical achievements are significant to the national legal community as they helped shape particular precedents in Canadian court cases since the inception of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Furthermore, it is no more different in style than [|Edward Greenspan]'s article on Wikipedia in terms of your deletion claim. The historical achievements were well sited with quality sourced material in criminal court case files and appeal court records as well as in newspapers. What can I do to restore this article?

Kind Regards,

Hi - take a look at the edit history. Created by TheCrazyFer and then we have NINITMIMIN and an IP working on it. NINITMIMIN is doing some odd stuff including Félix Osores de Sotomayor which is a disaster and adding fringe stuff at Joseph of Arimathea. Neither has a clue about sources. Ah, Agustín Herrera Pérez has the same pattern. TCF created the article, then deleted some material, which was restored by User:David.moreno72 (although to be frank it looks pretty poor and maybe copyvio), removed by the IP, and - oh hell, who is NINIT?? I'm tired and going to bed, but I think that's enough evidence there for a CU. Let me know what you think, I might run one tomorrow. Doug Weller talk 20:42, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

sharon Christian
Hi, I wanted to say that I very much appreciated your early feedback on the wikipage on Sharon Christian -- there were many un-sourced statements about her notability. In response to your feedback, I have done a lot of research over the last several weeks (many hours a day!), diving into the archives of newspapers that are not readily searchable in any other way (e.g. the Calgary Herald), and contacting many of the art historians with whom Christian interacted (e.g. Brooks Joyner, the Canadian Society for Painters in Water Colour, the Masters Gallery and the Wallace Gallery etc.). I believe we now have a clear case of notability, and I'd very much appreciate it if you chimed in. I suspect many editors have a tough time "changing their minds" simply because we are all human, and all have egos, and in the case of this article, the case to keep the page would have been clearer if I'd done my research before launching the page...that was a grave error, which I hope doesn't undermine all the work I've now put in.

THESE ARTICLES ARE NOT FAKE!!!!''' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.249.225.55 (talk) 16:18, 5 September 2016 (UTC) Okay I have copied most of the radio station articles to be deleted and saved them on my own computer for future references WITHOUT reverting them on Wikipedia itself! Just to avoid me getting blocked on Wikipedia for repeated violation. Sounds cool? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.249.225.55 (talk) 16:49, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

I have just made a new nomination for renaming categories for those U.S cities where the article doesn't include the state name.

Hello B. As near as I can tell this thread Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents involves you. I wanted to give you a heads up since it looks like the IP was trying to avoid sending the proper notification. If I am wrong many apologies for bothering you. Best regards.

Hilary Rosen
Hi there, Bearcat. I've been working to implement an expanded and improved draft of the Hilary Rosen article, undertaken on behalf of her consulting firm. I am a paid representative, so I am not directly editing the page but proposing changes and seeking consensus for others to implement. Following three successful edit requests (starting here), I am seeking an editor to review proposed text related to her LGBT advocacy work, plus a short "Personal life" section. I recently posted a request at WikiProject LGBT studies, but since no one has responded, I thought I'd ask a few active WikiProject editors to help directly. If you are willing to help, you can view more details about the request here. Either way, cheers! WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 19:23, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

A kitten for you!
For not being me, although always being gracious when we are confused.

I need help on fleshing out the content that I added. WP:BLP encourages using sources to verify deep emphasis on his sexuality, and I am unsure whether the content is helpful. --George Ho (talk) 01:03, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

I'm not sure how to do this...but I'd like to create a new page for Central Ontario Broadcasting (previously deleted). It was deleted due to copy-pasting too much. I was unaware of this rule. Noahcamps (talk) 19:30, 13 September 2016 (UTC)NoahCamps

Chris James and Patrick Rynn
You may care to take a look at newbie user User:PMRynn and his edits to the above. I suspect he is one half of the act, and may need a friendly shot across his bows re WP:COI. I would do so myself, but as the originator of the article, it might look a bit presumptive or whatever. Thanks,

By the way, I forgot to thank you for the huge help on the Lauren Southern AfD making sure that votes were actually based on policy. It was closed as "no consensus", but I still appreciate your help educating the commenters at AfD, which unfortunately has even experienced editors making wonky statements these days. Happy editing!

Second opinion requested
Hi Bearcat (or any talk-page watchers here). If you have a moment, would you be able to look at my recent edits at the Gerald Butts article, and if you have any input as to how I handled what I viewed as NPOV/BLP violations there. Much appreciated. Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 02:50, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
