Mae West
This is an interesting myth. However, you should add a source to your contribution to show that the myth itself is real.

Hi, I'm, too, a longhair. I have heard and read the rumor numerous times. There are a number of websites that refer to this rumor, including sex-kitten.net, maewest.net, and mae-west.com. What can I do at this point? Can these be external links or can I refer to these websites. Or what do you suggest? I know the rumor has existed for decades and I think it is important to share. Thanks.

Lead Belly
Impressive geneological information about Lead Belly, but I think it falls under WP:NOR because there is not an outside publication cited. I would suggest publishing the information in a journal and then it could be cited from Wikipedia. There is a lot of what you wrote, for instance about people not forgetting their birthdates, which sounds like opinions. Also, by the way, to sign comments you can use the 10th button in the edit menu, the one that looks like a signature.--Larrybob 19:48, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

In addition to teaching psychology, running a counseling center, and singing in a band, I am a professional genealogist. I am in the Los Angeles phone book under Family Quest. I am stating a professional opinion regarding the confusion of birth dates. People actually changed birth years frequently in those days. Regarding Leadbelly, Bessie Smith, and Ma Rainey, the census is the most reliable source, more reliable than biographies that copied each other. I have tried to contribute from my chosen fields and interests, because I believe Wikipedia is a great resource for people and that, as such, should come as close to the truth as possible.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. As a member of the Wikipedia community, please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information of living persons must not be libelous. Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article must include proper sources.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 01:18, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

January 2008
Please read up on WP:BLP and WP:V. All new content should be attributed to a reliable source. That way, users reading our encyclopedia can verify all content. This is especially important when it comes to articles about living people. It is never acceptable to add unsourced criticism to articles. Personal opinions or commentary doesn't belong in articles, per WP:OR. I have reverted a few of your recent edits because of this. If you have any questions about wikipedia guidelines, I'd be glad to try and help. Good luck in the future.-Andrew c [talk] 02:20, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe our core policies. KillerChihuahua?!? 13:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

The use of one physician's opinion or suggestion that a fetus cannot feel is not substantial. Opposing opinions by Thomas Verny and Arthur Janov and others should be allowed, if this physician's opinion is allowed. There is no proof of exactly when a fetus feels pain, but as an ex-Primal Therapist I have witnessed and heard descriptions of fetal pain. There is actual evidence that a fetus feels pain in Janov's books and Leboyer's books. The physician cited has no evidence. I am merely trying to give the article fair balance. Not allowing the opposing view by other physicians would, to me, indicate a non-neutral viewpoint. Please explain why opposing theorists and evidence are disallowed. Or if they are allowed, what must I do to report the evidence.

spanking
A piece of advice. To avoid been reverted I'd recommend paraphrasing Alice Miller's arguments as to why spanking is both child abuse and traumatic. She's notable enough to be mentioned in article, albeit briefly. —Cesar Tort 21:53, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Arthur Janov
Daviddaniel37, you may already have noticed this, but I thought I'd tell you that someone has recently undone your edits to the Arthur Janov article, without giving a reason. Giving a source for the claims about Janov's marriages seems like a good idea; I'm not sure why that was removed. Skoojal (talk) 02:34, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Ward3001 (talk) 00:10, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced or original content. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Ward3001 (talk) 01:35, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

RE: The Bixby Letter
''First of all, what is your position with Wikipedia? Why did you erase and threaten instead of communicating with me how I might reference this other than to say where it came from? I added as a reference that this information was from Massachusetts Town Births and 1850 Census. You erased my resource and my information. I am, in addition to being a psychology professor, a professional genealogist. (1)I stated where I got the information. (2) You state I made "controversial edits." Nothing I said was controversial. Those who state that someone deserted was being controversial. I am sharing genealogical information only. I do not see the source for Abraham Lincoln's birth date or George Washington's birth date in Wikipedia. (3) I have never added genealogical information to Wikipedia that was not substantiated by birth records, death records, or census records. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daviddaniel37 (talk • contribs) 07:40, 19 November 2008 (UTC) ''
 * First of all, what is your position with Wikipedia?: My position is conscientious editor who wants to improve Wikipedia and make sure its policies of verifiability and reliable sourcing are followed. I do not have to be an administrator to challenge unsourced edits. Take a quick look around. It happens that way all the time. Wikipedia does not have professional editorial oversight, so it depends on other editors to be sure the rules are followed in order to create a quality encyclopedia.
 * Why did you erase and threaten instead of communicating with me how I might reference this other than to say where it came from?: I gave you standard warning templates that are approved for use on Wikipedia. I only gave you an escalated warning after you repeated the same unsourced edits without explanation. If you consider that a threat, maybe you need to examine your editing habits. As for communicating with you how you might reference, if you'll click the blue links in the warning templates, you'll have an abundant amount of information about verfiability, sourcing, and citations. So please refrain from implying that the problem is my lack of communication until you read those links and any additional links that are found in those links.
 * I added as a reference that this information was from Massachusetts Town Births and 1850 Census. You erased my resource and my information.: Please read WP:CITE for information on proper citing of sources. I could state that the moon is made of cheese and that I found that in a reliable source, but if I don't give enough information for the reader to check out its accuracy, it does not belong in Wikipedia. "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiablity, not truth". That's a core principle of Wikipedia.
 * I am, in addition to being a psychology professor, a professional genealogist: I'm a university professor also, but allow me to let you know something about Wikipedia if you haven't already figured it out: Your credentials mean nothing on Wikipedia if you can't properly source your statements. That also applies in the world of the university, something you should already know. If you make statements in a dissertation without proper sourcing, is a reputable univerity going to let you get away with it?
 * You state I made "controversial edits: That's part of the standard Wikipedia template. If you prefer, I can warn you in my own words, but I think you would find something to criticise me for in doing that also, so I stay with the Wikipedia-approved templates when possible.
 * I do not see the source for Abraham Lincoln's birth date or George Washington's birth date in Wikipedia: "Other stuff exists" is a very weak excuse for poor editing habits. Wikipedia is a work in progress. Inadequacies in one article do not justify continuing the same pattern in other articles. If it did, this encyclopedia would be a worthless mess.
 * I have never added genealogical information to Wikipedia that was not substantiated by birth records, death records, or census records. : Very good, just please provide citations that can be verified by others.
 * One more point: I don't question your good faith in making the edits, I just want you to correct the inadequacies of your sourcing. That's the way it's done on Wikipedia. And it's a good idea to try to explain your situation on the article's talk page if you feel that you should not have to abide by a policy. That's far superior to simply reverting without explanation. If you need help on how to do any of the above, please place on your talk page and someone will help you. I don't wish to get into an endless debate with you about this. I simply want you to follow Wikipedia's policies on sourcing, and if you feel that you should not have to, then either explain on the talk page and wait for a consensus that allows the exception, or don't make the edit. Thank you. Ward3001 (talk) 16:06, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I have a problem with the citation of ancestry.com. There are census books and there are a number of websites including ancestry.com that have the census and the Massachusetts Births. One must be a member of ancestry.com to actually see the evidence directly. Can I just show ancestry.com as the citation? Can the 1850 U.S Census be a citation somehow? It is a fact that no matter whose copy of the 1850 census you look at, it will be there. Daviddaniel37 (talk • contribs) 11:40, 19 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Unfortunately, you can't use an online source that requires membership to access. You don't have to use online sources. If you have a hard copy (book) of a U.S. Census available (even from a library) with sufficient information to give details (publisher, year, page number, etc.), you can cite that just like any other book. But I've never done a citation of a census, so I'm not sure about details. I'd suggest placing on your talk page and someone with some expertise may be able to help you. You could also raise the issue on the article's talk page, although my guess is that it's not a frequently visited page. Good luck. Ward3001 (talk) 16:16, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Gertrude Baines
Greetings,

I was wondering where you got the below information?

The 1900 census states her birth as April, 1894, which is in agreement with other documents. She is the daughter of Jordan "Judge" Baines and Amy Baines. Jordan was born by 1860 but possibly earlier. He was a farmer. His parents, Peter and Avey Ann Bains, were born into enslavement in the 1820s, enslaved by Susan Bains in Georgia. Jordan was a child when slavery was abolished.

The 1900 census lists Jordan Baines as born in 1863, and her mother as born in 1867. Ryoung 122 13:08, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

I am a professional genealogist in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. Celebrities and other genealogists sometimes come to me. (This is besides my working in psychology.)

I found this information in several websites which are not accessible to everyone but I will soon find a book of the census in order to add a citation here. Daviddaniel37  13:08, 13 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Greetings,

I am still waiting for you to contact me. Please e-mail me at ryoung122@yahoo.com. Ryoung 122 18:25, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

When you see a hidden comment in an article saying not to add an unsourced or poorly sourced birthdate to an article, as you did on Michelle Thomas, please do not add an unsourced or poorly sourced birthdate. The talk page (and edit history) of that article documents a long running dispute over the dates of Thomas' birth and death. Your unsourced addition is unlikely to resolve that. - SummerPhD (talk) 14:51, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Date of birth - Rebecca De Mornay

Hi, Daviddaniel, the other two cites you added are not WP:RS for such disputable personal details - http://www.worldlingo.com/ma/enwiki/en/Rebecca_De_Mornay is a wiki and http://www.mademan.com/chickipedia/rebecca-de-mornay, personally I think what we have now is an honest reflection of the fact that there are differing dates cited throughout the media.

Hello, I'm VQuakr. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Talk:Shooting of Trayvon Martin that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. VQuakr (talk) 06:19, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Talk:Shooting of Trayvon Martin shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;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&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. VQuakr (talk) 01:19, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Arvid Vidar Røed
Hi, I have been researching the history of AIDS, for my own interest, for a number of years. I am curious as to how you were able to find Arvid Noe's real name.

Thanks. MaxCosta (talk) 21:45, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

I am working on a book on the History of AIDS. A few years ago, I announced it in a newsletter. (I also untangled a series of codes in The Mentalist. for example, that revealed the secret identiy of red John and is in my book The Mentalist Code and the Search for Red John. I do this kind of stuff). Anyway, the name Arvid Darre Noe is an anagram of Arne Vidar Roed. This is the only first-middle-last name that uses all letters of the anagram. Once I unscrambled the name, I looked at a genealogy site to confirm and he was there complete with the birth and death information. I looked further on search engines to find his wife and daughter.

email me at davidaniel_davidaniel@yahoo.com and I will share more, and, perhaps, we can communicate about the history of AIDS. I am interested in what you have found in your research. I am also the one who found Ardouin Antonio and who found Robert Rayford, until I found an old TV newscast from 1987 which anyone could see. I know several other names, that no one knows.

Bessie Smith
The word circa means "approximately". Our article about Bessie Smith says she was born on April 15, 1894, which is not approximate at all, so the use of the word "circa" is inappropriate. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 02:44, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

The date of April 15, 1894 is not appropriate or approximate at all. As I have noted, Bessie Smith's birthdate was chosen by a census taker at the time of the census of 1910, differing significantly from the census of 1900 which was reported by the woman who would best know when Bessie was born, her mother. That was July, 1892. Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey are victims of the same problem. Ma Rainey was born in September, 1882. The practice at the time when a birthdate was unknown was to assign a birthday for yesterday or tomorrow, as was the case for both Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey. In fact, pseudo-history has moved Ma Rainey's birthplace from Alabama to Georgia. I am a huge fan of both and they are both historical figures in the world of music, and I believe that they both deserve the honor and respect of historians.

Middle names
Hi. Sorry to contact you out of the blue. Can you please add where you are finding some of these middle names? Even though I personally think adding middle names is a little too detailed, consensus governs. I don't doubt your integrity; it is just some spellings have been wrong, and the one I reverted conflicts with the reference I added. Best regards,--Kieronoldham (talk) 02:45, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

I am a genealogist among other things, and I have been finding most of the middle names at ancestry.com. I am working on a project in my other field of psychology, and I have been finding the middle names. It is important to me to honor the unique individual, so I am adding them to Wikipedia where many already had their middle name included. Some middle names are unusual spellings like Antheney, but they are correct. Matthew Walter Bowman is listed in the Social Security Death Index as being born June 22, 1958 and his death is listed in December, 1978 because that is when his body was discovered. Did your source give a different middle name? This is his full name according to Social Security.

By the way--in April 1977, I was offered a ride by John Wayne Gacy at the Greyhound Bus Station in Des Plaines, Illinois.
 * I do not deny your integrity, as I have already stated. You did misspell "Jean" as opposed to "Gene" on the Corll article. No but the source is still a reputable one. Yours could be given a verifiable link - if not for me to check, then for the close to 500 other watchers of the article. More than likely, over time, had I not reverted the edit, some other individual on this article would have done so. Regards,--Kieronoldham (talk) 05:16, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I do respect and appreciate your efforts, . Make no mistake there. Accessible verifiability needs to be maintained. This article has seen this over the years.--Kieronoldham (talk) 05:28, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for correcting the spelling on Billy Gene Baulch. I will start putting in sources.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Dee Wallace, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. ''You've been approached about this before, but your edits to Dee Wallace added unsourced information to a BLP article without even providing an edit summary.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Rebop Kwaku Baah, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Also, "Reebop" is already listed as an alternate spelling. Sumanuil. 23:22, 2 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Reebop is not an 'alternative' spelling. it is THE SPELLING. He spelled his name correctly on all albums solo and otherwise. Someone has made a simple mistake that I have corrected. It should not say Rebop and have an alternative spelling of his chosen name. Daviddaniel37 (talk) 00:50, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Then provide sources, and quit "fixing" what isn't broken, like the file names. Sumanuil. 04:29, 3 July 2022 (UTC)


 * What do you mean sources. Look at his albums solo and group. Reebop every time. Just admit you made a mistake. Where are your sources that someone knows his name better than he does? Daviddaniel37 (talk) 06:08, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

You're the one blindly "fixing" file names. And as the one making the change, you HAVE to provide sources. EVERYTHING needs a source. Provide sources, quit fixing what isn't broken, and there won't be a problem. Sumanuil. 00:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * The list of LPs on the site spell his name correctly. Those are references enough. He knew how to spell his name. You blindly changed his name for whatever reason. Nothing of his says rebop. Ever ever ever. If you put John Lenon instead of Lennon I would correct you forever until you stopped. I need no reference. Everyone knows it is Lennon. And everyone knows it is Reebop. Daviddaniel37 (talk) 00:49, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Which site? And for the love of God, QUIT BREAKING THE FILE LINK! Sumanuil. 00:53, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * The site you are arguing about has this:
 * Solo
 * 1972 Reebop
 * 1973 Anthony Reebop Kwaku Baah Daviddaniel37 (talk) 00:58, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Which site? I can't read your mind. Sumanuil. 01:06, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * The Reebop site at Wikipedia that you are arguing about. That site. What site did you think I was talking about? Daviddaniel37 (talk) 01:09, 4 July 2022 (UTC)

Because you kept saying "site" instead of "article" I thought you meant something else. And I assumed you knew that Wikipedia cannot be used as a source for itself. I can see that the album covers say "Reebop", but that still doesn't affect the spelling of the file name in the infobox. If you want it fixed you have to ask for that on Wikimedia Commons. Changing the spelling merely prevents it from showing up. Sumanuil. 01:23, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I will do that. Daviddaniel37 (talk) 02:38, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
