Grammar check
I have seen your grammar checks, can you provide a quick one for Mudhugauv also explain the problems in the edit summary. Thank you.117.248.60.4 (talk) 13:00, 2 September 2016 (UTC) -> Done deal; summaries of movies are probably better placed on IMDB or 'themoviedb.org'... but a best effort was made nonetheless... idfubar (talk) 03:56, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Hey, thank you. What would you say the grammatical issues were.(To avoid future issues.)117.215.195.208 (talk) 04:20, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Uhhh, hard to say... I am not a linguist (or language expert) so my assessment is only casual - but if there is a problem it seems to stem from a pair of factors (i.e. the fact that the content is better placed in another forum/medium & that the content is non-typical of that which is written in English, i.e. a summary of a complicated story which relies upon references to multiple characters and complex interactions); there might also be some issue about the grammar of listing a given set of things in English... but it's nothing worth getting preoccupied with, IMHO...idfubar (talk) 23:29, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Idfubar. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. Editing for the purpose of advertising or promotion is not permitted. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:46, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Many thanks ; it's always nice to hear from other community members - and especially so with respect to those who spend countless hours making Wikipedia an invaluable, impartial source of knowledge (all for no personal gain on their own part - as WP:ABOUT makes clear!); such contributions put my own humble financial & editorial contributions in perspective... though, to be fair - and honest - were contributions truly comparable in such a sense the community would not be as robust as it actually is: the fact of the same is evinced by the spirit of friendly, collegial learning per the other posts on the page; further, your comment wouldn't be accompanied by a second, hidden comment serving as an automatic, near-infinite WP:COI sanction (expiring in "a while", specifically the year 5000, per as-yet unreferenced administrative guidelines regarding the volume of such concerns & the managability of the same). Please do try to think for yourself in determining if you could be creating as many conflict of interest arguments as you're likely purporting yourself to have solved - as bullying goes hand-in-hand with lessons of hatred (and tends to detract from actual diversity, i.e. that not of the tempramental kind) & is fully consistent with a compulsive obsession to have the last word in any disagreement; further, if the scrutiny already afforded to the nature & detail of my Wikipedia editorial activity has not yielded satisfaction please allow me to suggest that, given some concern about conflict of interest, the WP:INCIDENT process be used to clarify that any given volunteer whose employer has a broad scope of interest, e.g. federal government, IBM, university, etc., would not only present the same concern but would also be better served by a declarative understanding of expressed editorial suspicions being better relegated to silent, rather than expressed, bias (as, again, we are all volunteers who work under the same honor system - no matter how daunting & inaccessible initial contribution may appear to be). Fair enough?
 * PS: Your thoughts - but not your suspicions (given the accompanying authority, time-intensive process of remediation, and irrevokable damage to the reputation of Wikipedia) - are welcome; hope you feel the same way...  idfubar (talk) 02:28, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Your response to is complete bullshit. Highly experienced editors and administrators here have seen a wide variety of bizarre responses to legitimate concerns, but yours really takes the cake. Unless your attitude changes quickly and dramatically, your tenure as a Wikipedia editor is highly likely to be brief and inconsequential. Please drop the attitude now.

Blocked
This account has been blocked indefinitely for engaging in undisclosed paid editing activity for Blockfolio, which is a violation of the Terms of Use (please read the section "Paid contributions without disclosure"). To appeal this block, please follow the instructions at Guide to appealing blocks. Alex Shih (talk) 15:30, 25 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Thank you ; mail was sent to you in reply via 'Email this user'... but an attempt to use the ' ' template to notify you via your Talk page didn't (for obvious reasons) succeed... idfubar (talk) 03:31, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * File a proper unblock request by using  please, instead of attempting to harass over e-mail with bizarre nonsense. I have ran a check on this account, and there is non-public evidence that this account is connected to the subject in which you have contributed despite of clear conflict of interest, but refusing to disclose even when it clearly violates the Terms of Use. I suggest you read over the documents I have provided to you before filing a unblock request, and do not attempt to wikilawyer (read the essay) with another bizarre response. Alex Shih (talk) 03:48, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for sharing your perspective on harassment (please consult WP:EMAILABUSE with any further concern).  Aside from Draft:Foobarbaz_Blockfolio - a blank, draft stub article, there is not evidence of any connection to the subject ("Conclusions derived from CheckUser data have limited usefulness" per 'WP:CHK'); is it possible '(current)' log entries have confused you...? (Violation of Terms of Use is a pretty serious allegation - would one be subject to not only presumed guilt but secret evidence in defending one's self against it, and, if so, when/where?

 * Comment--Can someone please revoke his TPA?! The responses are bizarre to say the least and functionally equivalent to trolling. Winged Blades Godric 08:54, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Uh, WP:NEWCOMER...? Please note WP:UNCIVIL, ; your contributions are welcome insofar as a constructive solution is itended... IDFubar (talk) 10:09, 26 December 2017 (UTC)


 * IMO the attitude and 'bullshit' as described by and the personal attacks here and elsewhere are already sufficient for Idfubar to remain indefinitily blocked. WP:Standard offer might apply after 6 months - at administrators' discretion. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:40, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * We (again) have more than a half-decade of typographical & grammatical edits & zero involvement with the alleged subject ('Blockfolio'); there is no valid concern regarding the account 'Idfubar' & paid editing - neither now nor six months from now. There is (obviously) nothing preventing  - or anyone else with the requisite privileges - from issuing a block for any given reason. IDFubar (talk) 15:07, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
