Brian Stidham murder
Thank you for helping! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Location, location, location. Acme Plumbing (talk) 05:06, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

I saw the change that you just made. Maybe remove the plastic surgery part? It is referenced but may be an error by Fox News. Makes more sense if he wanted to do more pediatric surgery since he was a pediatric eye surgeon. Maybe have the other guy in the office prepare kids for surgery and he does it. Makes more sense than changing professions into plastic surgery.Acme Plumbing (talk) 05:34, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your help. You deserve a barnstar. I need to find out how to make one. In the meantime, settle for a temporary one. Thank you. Acme Plumbing (talk) 02:42, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

You did not "take over". You help save the article from people who did not know how different (and notable) this murder was. The guy who planned the murder losing his eyesight makes the case even more weird. Eye for an eye? Acme Plumbing (talk) 03:32, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

help?
You don't talk to people much. However, your help with Brian Stidham was much appreciated.

Would you help to write a story of Steve Titus. Somebody else did and won the Pulitzer Prize. I think this makes it notable because people could be looking up Pulitzer Prize stories and find it here in Wikipedia. Acme Plumbing (talk) 02:42, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Recent AfD comments
I understand if you feel strongly about the murderer-related AfDs. However, I don't really think it's fair play, or at least good form, to be patrolling my edits and specifically voting in all of my nominations. Presumably, AfDs in which the participants are the people who show up by chance are more representative of the community than the ones where you follow a nominator to all of his nominations in order to oppose them. As well, I don't know if you mean it that way, but it does feel sort of hostile to have someone copy and paste the same vote to something like 6 AfDs yours in half an hour, and then even again the next day when you create another one. Can we agree that it would be better to patrol the daily AfD subpages or sorted debates, rather than my personal contributions list? :-) Dominic·t 05:57, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

List of Supercentenarians
Greetings,

Regarding your argument below:

Weak delete per WP:SALAT: "Selected lists of people should be selected for importance/notability in that category and should have Wikipedia articles (or the reasonable expectation of an article in the future)." If being a supercentenarian in life is not inherently notable, then it should not be in death either. Location (talk) 19:38, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

This list IS selected for notability: only about 1 in 1000 centenarians reaches "super" centenarian status...overall, only about 1 in 5 million persons in industrialized nations (and far fewer in developing nations) reach "super" centenarian status. Also, there are quite a few Wikipedia articles on supercentenarians. The problem is that some get news coverage, and others do not. The list, as rendered, is more demographically sound because it includes all validated 110+ deaths in year X, regardless of media bias.

To summarize, SOME supercentenarians are notable for age, and receive adequate coverage, but this coverage is often uneven and may be biased (for example, the oldest person in Scotland will get more coverage than the 5th-oldest person in Japan, even if the 5th-oldest person in Japan is older). Having a list balances out the imbalances.

Of course, one could just turn to the GRG lists, but they do not have the added feature of WIKILINKS. So the Wiki articles serve a function that exists nowhere else. These lists are encyclopedic. This is not a list of tomato cans.76.17.118.157 (talk) 19:50, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Infobox runner
I have noticed that you marked this as depreciated without consulting Wikiproject Running. We have been working hard since 2006 and deserve a bit of respect and consultation. Contrary to the claims of some people who have established a spliter project, we do cover road races, track and field, cross country, mountain running and all aspect of the sport. In the United States, the term "athletics" includes all sports such as football, soccer, basketball, etc. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 18:34, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
 * That infobox was deprecated nearly four months ago after discussion in Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Athletics. You may want to bring up your objections in one of the relevant forums rather than here. Location (talk) 01:13, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * The infoxbox was created by WikiProject Running and you certainly did not consult with us about it. I understand that there are differences in terminology between the United States and Great Britain, but since last May, Sillyfolkboy has caused a lot of confusion and duplication by starting a second WikiProject with a very similar scope and then changing everything in site over from Running to Athletics.  In the United States, athletics include baseball, football, boxing, basketball, etc. Racepacket (talk) 03:55, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry if you feel that you were not given an opportunity to voice your opinion. The applicable edit histories indicate that WikiProject Running was essentially inactive when this issue was discussed in Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Athletics. If you feel that a consensus was not reached by proper means, you should involve other editors in the relevant forums. Location (talk) 00:08, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Multiple factors affect how an Afd is closed. The weight of the various arguments normally determines the final outcome rather than a strict tally of !votes. In that particular Afd, the presence of various IP without significant editing history points to the possibility of sockpuppetry. For example, your account is brand new and has an editing history that overlaps with other involved ISPs and registered accounts. You may want to talk to the closing admin for further clarification of his or her decision. As I mentioned in the Afd, redirect was my preference. Location (talk) 14:42, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Charles Lilburn Lewis
Interesting subject you have there! and some conflicting information to reconcile. I'm going to bring suggestions to you here, rather than add them myself, since I can see there is conflicting information out there and you have researched more thoroughly that I have.

For example, Lewis of Warner Hall (page 350) refers to him several times as "Colonel" Charles Lilburn Lewis, based on his service in the Revolutionary War as County Lieutenant of Albemarle County. I think that would be interesting to add if you consider it reliable, but his father is also referred to as "Colonel" so there might be some kind of mixup. Still, it clearly refers to them both as Colonel: "Col. Charles Lilburn Lewis, of Buck Island and Monteagle, was probably the oldest son of Col. Charles Lewis of Buck Island."

The Lucy article refers to him as "Dr." Charles Lilburn Lewis; is there any evidence that he was a doctor?

Was there some reason you didn't mention his Kentucky estate, Rocky Hill?

The flickr item implies that, like Lucy, he was buried at Rocky Hill. However, this may not be solid enough to include.

History, what fun! --MelanieN (talk) 04:00, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi, Melanie. I'm finding the history behind these article quite interesting. I put in just enough so that the article would pass the relevant notability guidelines, but there is certainly much more that can be added to Charles Lilburn Lewis including the Rocky Hill bit. From what I've come across, I agree that it appears as though Sr and Jr were both colonels. I haven't yet searched for any references to verify the doctor claim. Regarding Lucy Jefferson Lewis and Rocky Hill, there does seem to be conflicting information there. From what I gather, the monument and obelisk are one and the same, are not located at a cemetary, and do not mark Lucy's grave - despite what some sources may state. Using Google and GoogleMaps, I found the location of the monument (and bridge to the south) and am unable to verify the existance of a Rocky Hill cemetary in that area. There are many sources that state she was Pres. Jefferson's only sister; however, authoritative sources state otherwise.
 * Also, as I alluded to in Talk:Meriwether Lewis, there are a lot of people named Lucy or Charles in the Lewis, Jefferson, and Randolph families, and this certainly doesn't help resolve issues of contradictory information. Given their relationships to one antoher, there are a lot of mildly notable people in these families. I understand the objection to geneaology articles and linking non-notable people, but it sure would be helpful if these families had articles like Kennedy family to keep straight who is who. Thanks for the note! Location (talk) 19:03, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Hello. If you're interested in the history of the Lewis family, have you read Jefferson's Nephews: A Frontier Tragedy by Boynton Merrill, Jr.? If not, I highly recommend. Regards, MarmadukePercy (talk) 05:13, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Hipal/Ronz:I am not sure the issue is misrepresenting sources as much as much as it is failing to use "editorial judgement" per WP:REPUTABLE. In Wikipedia, there is presumption that academics and academic publishers put out reliable information; however, the work of Bartley and Bartley clearly relies on dubious sources to put forth a conspiracy theory, and the attempts to show that those sources are dubious - in other reliable sources not specifically related to the topic of Kiki Camarena's murder - is being tossed out as WP:OR.

Thanks for your help in updating the October Surprise articles. This Ben Barnes thing has brought a lot of people out of the woodwork. Rja13ww33 (talk) 17:36, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for jumping on this. You may have seen that I referenced Siva Vaidhyanathan's tweets on the talk page. It really is incredible how much credence people - not just Wikipedians - have given to this type of hearsay. Maybe because we aren't used to former politicians claiming things of that type. Cheers! -Location (talk) 20:52, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * People love the latest & greatest. It's sort of like whenever a new guy "confesses" to killing JFK or Hoffa. This story is (frankly) so ridiculous....it's hard to be objective here. I will be curious how RS treats it as time goes by. The big gaping hole in this that no one seems to be talking about is: as per this theory, they had already touched base with the Iranians prior to the Barnes/Connally trip....well if that is the case, why go all over the Middle East hoping a third party will pass messages on to people you are already in contact with? This is not to mention the fact Barnes said he concealed it because he didn't want to be known as a Bennedict Arnold to the Democratic Party. Well in the first place, he said he went on the trip not knowing its purpose (i.e. he was just a witness) so that hardly makes him a traitor to anyone....and secondly, if he had come out with this in '84 or '88, he would have had a statue in front of the DNC HQ dedicated to him for effectively ending the Reagan/Bush era. (Assuming Reagan knew what he supposedly spread all over the Middle East.) So yeah, a little hard to swallow. Rja13ww33 (talk) 21:15, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I noticed Viriditas replied to you on the Reagan page. Just a word: anything he says....check it out. Because he distorts/lies about everything. In any case, not sure I'd waste my time with him.....you know what they say about arguing with idiots. :)Rja13ww33 (talk) 02:27, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The "Benedict Arnold" claim doesn't make sense to me either. I think SV tweeted that Barnes had been out of politics for decades and it was common for Texas Democrats to jump ship with Carter anyway. He made these claims 10 years ago, so Carter being in hospice shouldn't have anything to do with them coming out again. If anything, stories like this help to remind people that conspiracy theories are propagated by both sides of the political spectrum. -Location (talk) 21:03, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia is pretty good about addressing the newest conspiracy theories that have entered mainstream discourse, but the spider web of Allegations of CIA drug trafficking, CIA involvement in Contra cocaine trafficking, October Surprise conspiracy theory, Iran–Contra affair, and Inslaw affair (and related articles) doesn't seem to draw the attention of people who might be able to mitigate the spread of crappy information.

October Surprise Allegations
Do you think changing the title to what is in the subject line throws a little too much weight to the other side of the argument? I'd be curious as to what you think. (Since you haven't voted on that RFC yet.)Rja13ww33 (talk) 20:53, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I may be away for the weekend, so I was hoping to see what others think prior to committing. October Surprise allegations would be acceptable to me, but I also think October Surprise conspiracy allegations might be more descriptive. If we are working with the definition that "a conspiracy theory is an explanation for an event or situation that asserts the existence of a conspiracy by powerful and sinister groups, often political in motivation, when other explanations are more probable" then there is no doubt that these allegations form a conspiracy theory. Still, I totally get that some people believe that "conspiracy theorist" and "conspiracy theories" are pejorative terms, and I would agree that Wikipedia sometimes does not seem to be consistent (e.g. Clinton Body Count was recently moved to Clinton body count conspiracy theory; Dick Gregory is a conspiracy theorist, but Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is known for promoting conspiracy theories). I wish there was a larger discussion about this. -Location (talk) 23:24, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
