User talk:MTO Poster


 * I've asked the blocking admin to comment. Please keep in mind, however, that making legal threats is completely unacceptable, and always results in an immediate indef block. You cannot be unblocked until you state clearly that you have no intentions of taking legal action against any editor or this project. Also, rather than reverting, try commenting on an editor's talk page if you feel your edit should have remained. Edit warring is a blockable offense for all but a very few specifically defined reasons. Please also take a look at our policy regarding conflicts of interest. - auburn pilot   talk  19:03, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

OK. I agree not to take any legal action.


 * Hi there, I seem to have forgotten about this, my sincere apologies. As User:AuburnPilot said, you should really comment on talk pages instead of reverting - to stop Edit Wars. Also, it seems that you have a conflict of interest with the article which is discouraged. Before you consider re-editing Wikipedia, please see no legal threats and the indroduction to know what Wikipedia is about. Then you may also want to read this page which lets you know all about conflicts of interests. Per AuburnPilot, on my talk page archive here, I am currently not sure about an unblock (although I am assuming good faith) - and will appreciate the views of another admin in this matter.


 * Regards,

The company is under attack by users looking to post blatantly negative posts. Currently the wikipedia page says he following - "MTO's journalistic integrity has come into question due to the lack of basic grammatical skills by its writers. The site has come under further criticism because the site has been known to start rumors/lies and perpetuate negative stereotypes of black people. Media Take Out has also been known to demand recognition when they are the first to report an event and even put their logo on other people's copyrighted images, but yet never give credits to the stories, videos, and pictures from other sites they have been taken from."

There are NO cited sources and the above is clearly opinion and not fact. And the last sentence is a blatant lie - if you look at the site you can see that close to 100 other sites are credited every day.

When I (who am NOT associated in any way with MTO) recognized this, I tried to correct this - first by trying to delete the above text (which is NOT fact). Then, by placing other text that would balance out the criticism of the site with some of it's credited stories. And when I did that, the user concocted some story to get me banned.

Then end result here is that I've attempted to work withing the Wikipedia system and for whatever reason you believe that it's OK to have opinionated lies on the page of Media Take Out. It's sad that this is what Wikipedia has come to.


 * I have removed the unsourced statements here as they have been there long enough unsourced, and will be watching the page from now on. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 10:11, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
