Playmates
In case you're interested, I have copies of all the American Playboys since roughly the late 80's. Before that it gets a bit spotty. Just in case you need something sourced or whatever. I realize you're going through all the Playmate articles for a reason and I'm sure I couldn't keep up with sourcing all of that but I just wanted to let you know... Anyway, sorry to bother you...

Savanna Samson
Just so you know, I reviewed the GAN for Savanna Samson and passed it. Congrats! —  Hun ter   Ka  hn  04:05, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Lisa Sparxxx
You seem to disagree with my edit on this page. I was hoping you might discuss it with me on the talk page of that article, where I already posted some thing. Thanks. 67.172.182.135 (talk) 12:12, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Did you even look at my sources? I didn't just point to her blog. Plus, if you cared to look at the talk page on Sparxxx and discuss it there you'd see I posted a lot more information there. First of all there's a video of the event and it's clearly her in it as she talks to the camera a couple times. Also, they talked about this event and Sparxxx on tv a couple weeks ago on a show called Manswers on the Spike channel. She was on the show talking about the event in an interview with Manswers. I will find more sources since you insist and I will post them on the SParxxx talk page and hopefully we can continue our conversation there. 67.172.182.135 (talk) 07:38, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

February GA Sweeps update
Thanks to everyone's efforts to the GA Sweeps process, we are currently over 95% done with around 130 articles left to be swept! Currently there are over 50 members participating in Sweeps, that averages out to about 3 articles per person! If each member reviews an article once a week this month (or several!), we'll be completely finished. At that point, awards will be handed out to reviewers. Per my message last month, although we did not review 100 articles last month, I still made a donation of $90 (we had 90 reviews completed/initiated) to Wikipedia Forever on behalf of all GA Sweeps reviewers. I would like to thank everyone's efforts for last month, and ask for additional effort this month so we can be finished. I know you have to be sick of seeing these updates (as well as Sweeps itself) by now, so please do consider reviewing a few articles if you haven't reviewed in a while. If you have any questions about reviews or Sweeps let me know and I'll be happy to get back to you. Again, thank you for taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 02:30, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Nominating a page for deletion shortly after rework
Epbr123, I am curious as to why you nominated a page tagged with construction for deletion a mere 7 minutes after it was revamped and moved by the editor that had worked on it back into mainspace from his userspace? As the page was tagged before your nomination with the construction tag, why did you not first consult with the editor that had added the construction tag to the page, and/or wait for that tag to be removed and allowing some time before nominating for AFD? Cirt (talk) 18:56, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * In my opinion, the article should have been speedy deleted as a recreation of deleted material. The nominations added don't add anything to his notability, based on guidelines. A construction tag doesn't make an article immune from deletion. Epbr123 (talk) 19:06, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.     Thank you. Cirt (talk) 19:15, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Epbr123, in the future I would strongly recommend that you at the very least attempt to discuss a page with other editors on the talk page if it is tagged with construction, prior to nominating for AFD. And that you wait more than 7 minutes after a page has been worked on. Cheers, Cirt (talk) 19:45, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, but maybe you should have discussed with the previous AfD nominator before allowing an article to be recreated. Epbr123 (talk) 19:47, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Hrm, I do not think that is standard practice - which is to consult with the closing admin (which was done properly in this case by Ash). Also, I would advise you not to be the same person to re-nom these AFDs a second time, in relation to the above circumstances - I see others have commented that you seem to have some sort of focus on getting rid of these pages on this particular topic. Cirt (talk) 19:53, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * If you're implying I have a bias against pornography article, I'll refer you to an above thread regarding Savanna Samson. I was also one of the main contributors to the PORNBIO guideline. Epbr123 (talk) 20:00, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps I was mistaken, as I see some excellent work on the article Savanna Samson, particularly with regard to the meticulous sourcing. My apologies about that, Cirt (talk) 20:01, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

The Editor's Barnstar

 * Thank you. I'm sorry about our disagreement. Epbr123 (talk) 20:17, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
 * As am I. ;( I highly respect you as an editor and admin. Hopefully we will both emerge wiser from all of this. :P Cirt (talk) 20:21, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Your reversion and a possible "experimental breach"
Re: Your reversion of Chayse Evans

User:PeterbrownDancin is an indefinitely banned strawman sockpuppet, he may have been involved in yet another "experimental breach" of unreferenced biographies of living people. See: Wikipedia_talk:RFC/BLP Okip BLP Contest 07:45, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Paul Carrigan
Now at DRV, see Deletion_review/Log/2010_February_15. Cheers, Cirt (talk) 14:21, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I have worked to improve the page Paul Carrigan, in a separate page in my userspace. Please see User:Cirt/Paul Carrigan. Would you think it would be okay to move into mainspace with this improved version? Cirt (talk) 17:07, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I won't start another AfD if it's moved into mainspace, but he's still not notable in my opinion. I appreciate the work you've put into the article, but all of its content is derived from database entries, primary sources and trivial mentions in movie reviews. If that was enough to make someone notable, every porn star in the world would have an article. Also, statements such as "Carrigan started becoming active as an actor in the pornography industry in 1992" can't be verified by IAFD, as their database isn't comprehensive. Epbr123 (talk) 17:22, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Um, well seeing as how it is currently at DRV, is it okay for me to move it to mainspace? Should I wait? Cirt (talk) 17:23, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Unless you can improve it any further, you may as well move it now. Epbr123 (talk) 17:25, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * As one of the staff members of IAFD, I can verify that our database is not comprehensive. We started including gay porn in our database in 2007, mostly from entries by only one volunteer staff person. Morbidthoughts (talk) 17:30, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Morbidthoughts, I can understand why such a database is unlikely to be comprehensive, however can one presume that if a video is listed on IAFD then it actually did or does exist? I note that the terms of reference states "every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the database" but as that is explained no further, such a presumption may be incorrect. Ash (talk) 19:13, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can presume a movie exists if it's in the database, but you can't draw conclusions like what year an actor first became active if there may be an earlier movie that is not in the database. Morbidthoughts (talk) 21:38, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Cool, well at least we have a reasonable source to demonstrate that Carrigan has been credited with acting in more than 250 films and directed 30. Ash (talk) 21:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Epbr123, suppose we take your word that you won't nominate it for deletion after it's moved to main space, what is to stop another editor from nominating it? As it stands, only a proper deletion review can determine the fate of Paul Carrigan. - 22:10, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
 * There's nothing to stop another editor from nominating it. Epbr123 (talk) 22:26, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Alexandra Nice
Why did you think the BLP sources tag was inappropriate? IAFD and AVN News are only marginally reliable sources by BLP standards. Kenilworth Terrace (talk) 19:18, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Why do you think that? Epbr123 (talk) 19:23, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
 * This for example. Kenilworth Terrace (talk) 19:53, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
 * In the discussions I've seen, there's been consensus that AVN is reliable, and it obviously is a reliable source for its own awards. I've started a discussion about IAFD at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Pornography. Epbr123 (talk) 20:14, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

IAFD
Why are you considering IAFD an unreliable source for some info? I remind you of what was said Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Pornography/Archive_4 from Morbidthoughts:
 * "I help run IAFD so I won't offer an opinion on its reliability. People can submit additions and corrections (but it should be adequately sourced if there's a conflict) but we have to approve it and sometimes we go to 2257 information on hand to confirm things like birthdate and height." (emphasis mine)

And 2257 information is a legal document. Tabercil (talk) 23:02, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Could you say that at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Pornography so we can finally get consensus on this. Epbr123 (talk) 23:09, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. Tabercil (talk) 23:39, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Final discussion for Requests for comment/Biographies of living people
Hello, I note that you have commented on the first phase of Requests for comment/Biographies of living people

As this RFC closes, there are two proposals being considered:
 * 1) Proposal to Close This RfC
 * 2) Alternate proposal to close this RFC: we don't need a whole new layer of bureaucracy

Your opinion on this is welcome. Okip  02:16, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

that thing I said
I saw the wording and just assumed you wrote it without reading more. I hope you can see my point and can see how contentious Afd nominations are best backed by detailed explanations initially and not argued after the fact. - Stillwaterising (talk) 16:23, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I disagree. When making a nomination, there's no way to counter every possible argument beforehand, especially when arguments made by other's aren't backed by policies or guidelines, as in certain recent AfDs. Epbr123 (talk) 16:45, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * well, maybe. Saying "doesn't meet gng or pornbio" does cite guidelines however it says nothing as to why. I think it's been established that performers need only meet one additional criteria as well as basic criteria. No need to also meet pornbio and gng if so, right? I'm pretty sure you disagree with my literal interpretation of the 2nd paragraph of gng stating that either gng or bio needs to be met, not both. Is there a guideline, policy, or essay that clarifies this? - Thanks. Stillwaterising (talk) 22:29, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * If someone meets WP:GNG, they are notable, except if it violates WP:NOT. If someone meets WP:BIO, they are likely to be notable, as they are likely to pass WP:GNG. Some users believe passing WP:BIO is enough to show notability, while others are stricter and believe it has to be proven that someone passes WP:GNG. Epbr123 (talk) 23:00, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Does policy trump guideline? - Stillwaterising (talk) 02:41, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, it does, although guidelines shouldn't be written than conflict with policy. Epbr123 (talk) 12:24, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

GA Sweeps Completed!
Thanks to everyone's amazing efforts in February, we have reviewed all of the articles and are now finished with Sweeps! There are still about 30 articles currently on hold, and once those reviews are completed, I will send you a final message about Sweeps process stats including the total number of articles that were passed and failed. If you have one of these open reviews, be sure to update your count when the review is completed so I can compile the stats. You can except to receive your award for reviewing within the next week or two. Although the majority of the editors did not start Sweeps at the beginning in August 2007 (myself included), over 50 editors have all come together to complete a monumental task and improve many articles in the process. I commend you for sticking with this often challenging task and strengthening the integrity of the GA WikiProject as well as the GAs themselves. I invite you to take a break from reviewing (don't want you to burn out!) and then consider returning/starting to review GANs and/or contribute to GAR reviews. With your assistance, we can help bring the backlog down to a manageable level and help inspire more editors to improve articles to higher classes and consider reviewing themselves. Again, thank you for putting up with difficult reviews, unhappy editors, numerous spam messages from me, and taking the time to help with the process, I appreciate your efforts! --Happy editing!

AVN is a reliable source? This is used in every performers entries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Felkel77 (talk • contribs) 21:48, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It's possible for people to lie during interviews, so they are unreliable sources for promotional claims such as winning awards. The statements about the number of films she did in 2000 and her enjoying a certain scene is just unnecessary trivia. Epbr123 (talk) 21:52, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

This individual has taken it upon themselves to strip the entire history of Bridgette Kerkove. The article has been repeatedly whittled down to nothing but a few minor sources.

AfD nomination of Candy Manson
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Candy Manson. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Articles for deletion/Candy Manson (3rd nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Robby D. (director)
This fellow was sent to AFD. He has received multiple nominations of awards that would seem to pass WP:PORNBIO, but he's not a porn actor... being rather a porn director and editor.

Speedy deletion nomination of Cassie Young
A tag has been placed on Cassie Young, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

BDSM Deletions
Hello, how have you been? Do you have any advice on how to best cleanup the BDSM project? - Stillwaterising (talk) 10:51, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Firstly, it's best to avoid nominating a lot of articles for deletion at once. I personally don't see a problem with it, but I know it bothers some people and it leads to a lot of keep votes being made for procedural reasons. Maybe leave a notability tag on the article for a while before nominating it. Epbr123 (talk) 11:22, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:KentDistricts.PNG
A tag has been placed on File:KentDistricts.PNG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Orphaned non-free image File:Blondie - Maria.ogg
 Thanks for uploading File:Blondie - Maria.ogg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.

unreferencedBLP tag
Just so you know, the unreferenced BLP tag should have the date set to the current month when you make the change, don't simply change the name of the tag. Let me know if you have any questions. --Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 00:25, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi. Could you point me to the discussion where this was decided? Seeing as the unreferenced BLP tag was only created in late-2008, this clearly hasn't always been the case. What's the rationale behind placing a BLP that's been tagged as unreferenced for three years at the back of the queue? Thanks. Epbr123 (talk) 07:23, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
 * See for example ,but the main reason is so the progress of referencing and tagging can be tracked. If you drop a bunch into non-existent or old categories, there's no way to tell how many are being tagged per month, which was a critical part of the tracking process.  The expectation is that ~1000 additional are being found per month, so we need to know if there are more or less than that number to know if the referencing is proceeding fast enough, because we want to be able to ramp up sourcing/deletion efforts if the current focus is not adequate.  If you ask this over at WT:URBLP, or WP:BLPN you'll get the same answer, I'm sure.  --Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 07:50, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, but I would have thought using the total number of unreferenced BLPs would be enough to judge whether the referencing is proceeding fast enough. Epbr123 (talk) 08:19, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It is, but we also want to know if (e.g.) someone finds and tags thousands of new articles in a month, rather than the expected 1,000. The eventual goal is to get to no BLPs tagged for more than a month, and the only way to determine that is if the date is set to the month in which it was applied. If you want, I can give you some regex to use that will replace the old date with the current date. --Joshua Scott (LiberalFascist) 13:13, 13 June 2010 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hi there, I've noticed that you've been converting a bunch of articles from unreferenced to BLPunreferenced. Do you have any idea how many you have done, and how many you still have to do? I assume you've been working from a AWB list comparison, so even a rough number would be useful... as you've been totally destroying our stats! The-Pope (talk) 11:35, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I've tagged roughly 1200, and I guess there will be about another 200 to go. Epbr123 (talk) 14:42, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks... despite my comment about the stats, I want to let you know that I think you are doing a good job - I see that this BLP issue as a three step problem
 * tagging the article with the BLPunref or other tags
 * tagging the talk page with a wikiProject or three to alert interested people
 * referencing is done by those interested people
 * I basically did all the #3s that I could earlier this year... now I'm heavily into #2. Hopefully we can get enough other editors to pick up the slack on the referencing soon. Cheers, The-Pope (talk) 16:39, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi from me to. I'd also noticed that very useful tagging you've done and thought I'd pop by to say thanks. One of the questions that obviously interests some of us who are trying to clear the unreferenced BLP backlog is how many more are still out there waiting to be found. So could you tell us how you found those 1,400 articles? Also I noticed you've been using AWB to project tag, do you have any suggestions as to how we can chip away at this list of 7,000 unreferenced BLPs without project tags? We've been trying to work through the projects as one way to clear the backlog, and the unproject tagged need tagging to fit that model.  Ϣere  Spiel  Chequers  19:16, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi. They were found by using AWB to search for evidence of references in each article, similar to how Larabot works. Until I found out about the 500 French Assembly members I somehow missed, I would have estimated that I had found about 80% of the remaining unsourced BLPs, as I had searched every page in the subcategories of Category:People by occupation and nationality, which was near to a million articles. I'll see if I can help with those unproject tagged articles. Epbr123 (talk) 20:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

advertisement
If it is not an advertisement then why does it say that at the top Off2riorob (talk) 00:49, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

http://business.avn.com/articles/Donny-Long-Launches-XXXFilmJobs-com-314042.html in the http business section Off2riorob (talk) 00:52, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

If you are a robot that has switched off, as you are unable to discuss I will replace advertisment as I have demonstrated it says advertisment on top of the article and actually it clearly is promotional in content. Off2riorob (talk) 00:58, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It is not advertisement. This article was originally in the print version of AVN and there was an advertisement there. When the article is archived electronically to the web, "ADVERTISEMENT" is the placeholder. Morbidthoughts (talk) 01:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)


 * If it is not an advertisement is is a promotional fluff piece. Is this your robot? Off2riorob (talk) 01:29, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Robot? No. Do you always throw around baseless accusations assuming bad faith or delete evidence of an article meeting the notability guidelines before you attempt to afd it? Morbidthoughts (talk) 01:52, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Crissy Moran
I see you recently deleted a recreation of this article per G4. I've been noodling whether to take this to DRV, and had an extended discussion with the closing admin already. Can you tell who recreated it? I didn't realize before that the subject has an article on at least 9 other language wikipedias, and got fairly massive page views, e.g.,, so I was interested to know who tried to recreate it. cheers--Milowent (talk) 15:22, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * User:Dbiela8293 recreated it, but it only contained a couple of images and a link to her facebook page. Epbr123 (talk) 16:09, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, thanks. Hardly an opus, then.--Milowent (talk) 18:37, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi, just a quick note to acknowledge and say thank you for all your work in adding the Porn Project listings to the Japanese Erotic Cinema talk pages. Cherryblossom1982 (talk) 16:17, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Raven Riley
An editor has nominated Raven Riley, an article which you have created or worked on, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Raven Riley (2nd nomination) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 02:33, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Math rating
The math project uses the maths rating template a little differently than other wikiprojects. We already have a list of mathematics articles and list of mathematicians that are maintained by a bot without using talk page tags. So our talk page tags are only used for carrying article assessment information. Please do not use AWB to simply add maths rating to talk pages; this has been discussed and rejected by the math project. Instead, if you add a maths rating tag, please fill in the quality, priority, and field parameters for the article, as discussed in the template documentation. It is not necessary to tag articles simply to mark them as related to mathematics. Thanks, &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 11:13, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Understood. Sorry. Epbr123 (talk) 11:23, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It's no problem; mathematicians are always a little idiosyncratic... &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 11:36, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Adult award winners and nominees
Is there a special reason why you keep this great and even well referenced list "secret"? Wouldn't it be much better to move it to a sub-page of WP:P*? Testales (talk) 19:36, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I think several project members are already aware of it. I use it mainly to find out quickly whether a performer meets pornbio. Epbr123 (talk) 22:31, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Some are apparently not aware of it and it could have saved me quite some time of googling too. ;) As long as notability in that area (unfortunately) depends so very much on "awards" and nominations, it would be rather useful if somehow exposed on the project page like the MouSearch. I only found your list by accident. Testales (talk) 09:55, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I've now added a link on the project page. To be fair to the user who prodded the article you mentioned, he is actually one of the projects most diligent members and I think it was just a rare mistake. Epbr123 (talk) 10:37, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I know that and it was not my intention to criticize him here. This article was just the perfect example for 1) even some very productive editors may not know of your list and 2) not every actor who won a prize or got nominated multiple times seems to be really THAT notable if nobody cares about him or her. There is even no article at all for Sharka Blue on the German Wikipedia although there is a red link with her name on the FICEB page, so I think it was planned but nobody didn't care there either. In contrast to the recently deleted article of Crissy Moran who had/has a rather comprehensive article on both Wikipedias. Testales (talk) 15:51, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Frankly, I don't make it a habit to search normally unreliable sources such as excalibur or imdb. The burden of proof of verifying things is on the editor who adds the item. Initiating a prod gives people enough time to verify notability and is easily removable even without a legitimate reason. Morbidthoughts (talk) 16:10, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Please stop continually adding an irrelevant category to the page for Jack Offer. Why don't you take the trouble to read the edit history? David Biddulph (talk) 16:56, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
 * If you have a reliable source that he's died, please add this and the appropriate death category to the article. Thanks. Epbr123 (talk) 17:01, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Now done. David Biddulph (talk) 17:24, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Category:Possibly living people
Can you please be more careful when adding the category "Possibly living people" to articles? I've already had to correct numerous mistakes where the individual's year or date of death was listed directly in the article but you added "Possibly living people" anyways. Thanks. Canadian  Paul  19:08, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Understood. At least it's encouraged someone to move the death dates to more prominent positions. Epbr123 (talk) 20:20, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
