User talk:NV Researcher

Thanks for noticing Rivenburg's violation of his block on the Michel Thomas article and pointing it out. I will do what I can to ensure he does not violate the block in future. Sometimes naughty boys require a little discipline! 166.205.139.18 (talk) 03:04, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting
You've made two requests on this talk page, both of which asking for "Republican" to be added to something or other. It's not going to happen for various reasons, one of them being that it has the distinct flavor of pushing a particular point of view. Please refrain--thank you.

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

FYI
On Michel Thomas, two things: yes, admins do not "approve" content, though they may disapprove content, so to speak, like BLP violations. However, your citation is to a primary source; it needs a secondary source. It REALLY needs a secondary source. I am not going to revert it for that reason, since the information is interesting enough--WAIT, it is actually a secondary source, it's just not properly cited. Please see WP:CITE and use the right template (Template:cite journal, maybe). If the IP reverts again, I will block and semi-protect. Drmies (talk) 00:12, 29 October 2019 (UTC)

Michel Thomas law case
You deleted my summary saying "‎Defamation lawsuit, Silver Star: The court made no such determination." Au contraire! I feel the summary I wrote was a fair representation of the court's decision. Please advise why you think otherwise. Arrivisto (talk) 10:18, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
