R.J. Atkins
Hi - just a note regarding the draft you're working on. I don't want to seem unfriendly or disparaging, but it might help you to read a few guidelines: Based on what's in the article right now, there is very little chance of the article being retained - you are going to need substantially better sourcing (look at WP:RS, WP:IS and WP:SECONDARY for more on this). As I say, I don't want to put you off - but I don't want you to waste your time either. Best Girth Summit  (blether)  15:57, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:FIRST gives advice on writing your first article
 * WP:NOTABILITY describes the concept of notability, which determines whether or not we host articles about particular subjects.
 * WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR are the guidelines that this subject would be expected to meet.

Thanks for yiur guidance... McCoolRedd (talk) 16:14, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

In order for me to investigate, please point to the exact location where this draft article was published outside of Wikipedia. Additionally, please indicate why you thought it appropriate to copy content from another site in violation of copyright. --Yamla (talk) 12:08, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

The article is published at https://en.everybodywiki.com/R._J._Atkins. I found it via a Google search at https://www.google.com/search?gs_ssp=eJzj4tVP1zc0zDAtyCkzN802YPTiLMpSSCzJzswrBgBmMggP&q=rj+atkins&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS819US819&oq=rj&aqs=chrome.2.69i60j69i57j46i39i395i410i424j69i60l3.3255j1j4&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8. It is approximately the 7th or 8th search result about the person.

If there is such a thing, I'll say that my utilization of this content was an amateur mistake (not that it justifies or excuses it). I now totally understand that it was not appropriate of me to do so. The last thing I would ever want to do is jeopardize my integrity and should I be reinstated, I assure you that I will never copy anything from another site again.

 * I'm sorry, I'm not buying it. This doesn't explain why you are so interested in an actor who fails WP:NOTE. You are free to make a new unblock request but given the previous WP:UPE editing in this subject area, content which you copied yourself, I'm not comfortable advocating for your unblock. --Yamla (talk) 15:11, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Wow that was rather harsh to say. But then again it's pretty easy to criticize others when you're hiding behind a computer screen.

Perhaps I'm interested in the underdog and like to see those who people like you see as "failures" succeed.

Do I know R.J. personally? No I do not, but I've heard of him through a few Houston circles and think he has a rather intriguing story (and fought for this country), some of which cannot be published since you are so against original research. Is it a crime to take interest in a person who "fails?" Not at all, but if you'll do your own research, you'll discover they are the ones who usually become huge. Does the name Abraham Lincoln ring a bell?

I've screenshot our convo and I'll make sure that Mr. Atkins gets ahold of it. I hope he makes it as big as Denzel so he can rub egg in your faces?

Geez, I thought Wikipedia was supposed to be unbiased. Obviously, you're a failure too. I don't see you working for ABC News or a bigger platform but I will be someday and I'll make sure to refer back to how NOT to be belittle others. Thank you for revealing your true biased opinion. Good day. There's other sources than Wikipedia. McCoolRedd (talk) 15:32, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
