Rand Paul middle name
I noticed you added Rand Paul's middle name, do you have any source for this? Gage (talk) 11:28, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes. If you go here: https://cdcbp.ky.gov/VICWeb/VIC and look up Randal Paul and his date of birth, you can see his middle name.

Rand Paul photos
Please stop uploading copyrighted photos of Rand Paul. Gage (talk) 06:45, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

You made a mistake. MJ787123 is the vandal, I am the one who corrected all his stuff. And put your previous photos back where they were.
 * You uploaded the two images, one of Rand with supporters in Frankfort, and the other of Rand with Congressman Brett Guthrie, neither of these images are in the public domain, or under any suitable license for use on Wikipedia. Stop. Gage (talk) 09:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Aggressive Editing
You seem to be involved in tendentious editing on two related articles: Trey Grayson and Rand Paul. Consider this a final warning on all of these issues. Continued partisan disruption of this nature will cause you to be blocked and/or the article to be fully protected. Toddst1 (talk) 14:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
 * On Trey Grayson, you seem to be trying to WP:OWN the article . Given the nature of these articles and your behavior, it appears you are connected with them.
 * Also on Trey Grayson, you have been involved in a number of edit wars. While the three-revert rule is hard and fast, please be aware that you can be blocked for edit warring without making 3 reverts to an article in 24 hours. You are not entitled to 3 reverts and are expected to cooperatively engage other editors on talk pages rather than reverting their edits.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:180px-Rand Paul in Frankfort by Gage Skidmore.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:180px-Rand Paul in Frankfort by Gage Skidmore.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 04:03, 13 January 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 04:03, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Better source request for File:250px-Rand_Paul_portrait_by_Gage_Skidmore_edit.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:250px-Rand_Paul_portrait_by_Gage_Skidmore_edit.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 04:07, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:250px-Rand Paul portrait by Gage Skidmore edit.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:250px-Rand Paul portrait by Gage Skidmore edit.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ww2censor (talk) 04:08, 13 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Hello. The file you were looking for is still there: File:Rand Paul in Frankfort by Gage Skidmore.jpg. Hope this helps. Angus McLellan (Talk) 12:27, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

File:Trey Grayson official photo.jpg
If you feel that the image has insufficient permission and/or should be deleted, please use WP:FFD or commons:COM:DR. If the image is a copyright violation, simply removing it from pages is not the correct course of action. Thanks. – Hysteria18 (Talk • Contributions) 16:13, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Rand Paul, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. AV3000 (talk) 12:04, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Rand Paul, you may be blocked from editing. Hekerui (talk) 09:28, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you delete or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did to Rand Paul, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Hekerui (talk) 12:09, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal the block by adding the text below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Materialscientist (talk) 08:32, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

 * [[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]] Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Rand Paul, you may be blocked from editing. HpK1029 (talk) 17:37, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

 You have been blocked for disruptive editing, namely the same removal of referenced content without discussion that got you blocked last time. To contest this block, please reply here on your talk page by adding the text along with the reason you believe the block is unjustified, or email the blocking administrator. For alternative methods to appeal, see Appealing a block. Daniel Case (talk) 18:03, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Please note
It should be noted that CullVernon attempted to remove the contextual evidence regarding his block and its subsequent review at 20:52, 5 July 2010, seen here. Thankfully Administrator Jpgordon undid CullVernon's disruptive edits promptly. This incident should be taken into consideration when reviewing the current unblock request--or may possibly be used as evidence to extend the current block, especially considering his several dozen malicious edits to Trey Grayson and Rand Paul have continued since his last block was lifted. The Original Wikipedian (talk) 23:17, 5 July 2010 (UTC)


 * [[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]] Please refrain from vandalizing your own talk page, CullVernon. If you wish to archive your discussions and warnings onto another page, you may find the MiszaBot_III resource helpful. As you have removed your own unblock request, it will not be restored at this time. However, a copy of your message will be left here for the purposes of further administrative review: to view CullVernon's "I do not regret my edits (...) the previous block was for not mentioning why edits were made, which was something different despite the "same as previous block" half-truth" unblock request in its entirety, it is available here.

Miscellaneous self-message
Wikipedia is a garbage source for anything political, religious or 'heated', pretty much tantamount to a political blog. Pages are slanted towards whatever the more active side puts on it and whatever bias a moderator might have. Sections are added with stuff already written on the page, so as to loudly proclaim "SCANDAL!!!1111" and then written in a laughably biased way.

Example of fair way, taken from Rand Paul's wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/Rand_Paul=Board_certification

Example of completely biased way: http://en.wikipedia.org/Rand_Paul=Board-certification_controversy

Yes, it's there twice. The bias is then defended by someone who ran for office with the "Democratic and Working Families lines". A fox guarding the hen house.

But try and add something about Jack Conway's LG&E scandal on his page, with sources, and it'd be gone quick. Yes it's there...but then as we can see it's alright to add something twice: the fair side and how the opposition sees it essentially.

Regardless, most people blessedly don't get their news or make their voting decisions based on an open source edited by partisans. And after the opposite candidates wins, well, THAT can't be edited. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CullVernon (talk • contribs) (UTC)
