Deleted text from user page
Did you mean this? :)


 * I do not think that secondary sources are that big a deal when dealing with obscure, non-controversial subjects, and that the lack of secondary sources should not be criteria for deletion. This is a particular issue when dealing with articles relating to Dungeons & Dragons - D&D is a self-contained universe, and a lack of secondary sources does not change the fact that certain concepts within the game require articles for the casual browser's understanding.


 * I also believe that deletionism often borderlines on vandalism - and in a few cases goes well over the line. Some deletionists do truely just want a higher standard for articles, and this I think is a good thing.  Many a poorly written article has actually been saved because a deletionist brought it under the axe.


 * However, hardcore deletionism is vandalism. Users with opinions like "video game content decreases the quality of wikipedia" are quite acting contrary to the founding purpose of wikipedia.  And you'd think it would be obvious to everyone that hardcore deletionism is contrary to the spirit of wikipedia, seeing as most of them have been caught running sock farms or punished/banned for disruption.

If not, let me know and I'll dig more. That was from your Sep 29 2008 version. BOZ (talk) 13:42, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * That looks like it. Thanks a bunch.  Mc  JEFF  (talk)  13:43, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Absolutely no problem - any time! BOZ (talk) 15:15, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

User:McJeff/Userboxes/NObama
Hi. Not sure if you're already aware of this, but that userbox is used on several userpages. Do you still want it deleted? – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 19:39, 26 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I decided to scrub my userpage of all political stuff, that's not an area of wikipedia I want to be involved in. But if people are using it I'll ask if one of them would prefer to host it - I'll remove (or you can decline) the CSD for now.  Mc  JEFF  (talk)  19:42, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, that'll be fine with me. Thanks. Crippler4

Asaga possibly no longer need to speedy.
I think Asaga is saved from being speedy deleted. Would you agree to this? (I ask you since you placed up the speedy on that page). Cheers!Calaka (talk) 14:26, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I think that's good enough to decline the speedy. Mc  JEFF  (talk)  16:14, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Tucker dispute
Hey there. I saw your note at WP:RFPP and decided I'd mediate this; see here. Also, please read this. Just a heads-up for next time. Cheers, Master of Puppets  - Call me MoP! :D  06:20, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the mediation and assistance, though I categorically reject the statement that asking another guy who's done extensive work on the article to help push back edit warring IPs isn't a fully legitimate action to take. Mc  JEFF  (talk)  07:54, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * No problem. As for the approach, it isn't. Believe me. It would be much better if you could report such incidents to WP:AN3 or something, where they would be dealt with; asking others to help you revert a dynamic IP isn't productive. Master of Puppets  - Call me MoP! :D  11:36, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * OK, fair enough. Mc  JEFF  (talk)  15:15, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Tucker Max: 3 revert rule
Hi McJeff, by my count you're at 3 reverts in the last 24 hours on the Tucker Max article. I'm not looking to make an issue of it, but please stop edit warring to insert text for which there is no consensus at the talk page. If we've somehow misunderstood your point, I'm happy to discuss it further there. cheers. --hippo43 (talk) 15:19, 25 August 2009 (UTC)


 * By my count it's two, but thanks for the heads up. Mc  JEFF  (talk)  15:38, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

Bret Hart
As I have said, I have no involvement with the film. I do have issues however with the way the Bret hart page is being treated. Want to do something worth while? You too put this forward to a moderator. I am confident an unbiased person (who is not blinded by wrestling fanboyism) will agree with me. 92.40.92.52 (talk) 18:34, 1 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Considering the evidence I've compiled, User:Commoncase, I don't in the slightest believe that you aren't in the film. Perhaps you'd care to put forward an explanation as to why you're intimately familiar with Bret Hart's manager, a person whom most wrestling fans wouldn't even know exists?


 * I do, however, fully intend to put this to an administrator - wikipedia does not have "moderators" - with the express intention of reigning in your negative POV push against Bret Hart and your obvious conflict of interest in regards to him.  Mc  JEFF  (talk)  18:52, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Commoncase and Arthur Cutz seem to have similar syntax and both make the same spelling mistakes. Darrenhusted (talk) 20:04, 1 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Yup. I'm filing an SPI as we speak.  Mc  JEFF  (talk)  20:05, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
