Ryder cup
Hi Puffin,

I am perplexed as to why you keep removing my change on the Ryder Cup. There is a lengthly section in the future sites part about the selection process for the 2018 Ryder Cup. The 2018 Ryder Cup was selected almost 6 months ago and the selection process now appears on the 2018 Ryder Cup page, it should not be on the Ryder Cup main page as it is no longer relevant - I would also add that the next 2020 Ryder Cup has also now been chosen, so any selection process should relate to the 2022.

Please excercise common sense and dilligence when implementing changes as my changes in this instance are clearly applicable and shoudl remain,

Regards

Re:Welcome
Hi Puffin!

Thank you so much for your very nice suggestion. I may like editing but I'm not that intelligent enough to up an article. I'm also an unexperienced student and I don't even master the principles in writing an article. Deep inside me, I really wanted to put up my own article which can help others who will be browsing Wikipedia. But don't worry,'coz there will come a time when I will post my very own article. It can be on environment, it can be on science or it can be on complicated relationships, but I'll make sure that before entering 3rd year high school life, I already post my own article...Again, thank you so much,  Puffin  Let's talk!

Hi, Puffin.

I am actually a longtime Wikipedian in good standing, my registered account is. I am working on some school material at the moment, and as a rule when I do that I typically refrain from logging in so as to avoid the temptation to edit other pages of interest.

I do thank you for the welcome though, its uncommon for registered user to extend such invitations these days, and I would ask for a favor since you are apparently already logged in: would you tag the isp address I am editing under as being used by the University of Texas at El Paso? In this way others will know to be careful about sanctioning this particular address in the event someone other than I happens to use it for less than honorable purposes. 129.108.202.54 (talk) 19:57, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * That's fine! I tagged it for you.  Puffin  Let's talk! 16:18, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Puffin,

Hope this meets you well. I don't think the picture wiki put up for the Biafran war is suitable for the Nigerian page.

In the Article on USA, France, Germany and the UK; wiki does not have pictures of Negroes burning during the days of segregation and slavery and you don't have a picture of the horrors of the World Wars. How about the Japanese page, you don't have pictures of pearl harbor, do you? Why display the picture of a starving girl during the long forgotten Biafra War? Most Young Nigerians don't even know about that war. Shouldn't that be on another page? Why did you not put up the pictures of the second largest man-made structure (once the first)"The walls of benin": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walls_of_Benin or even :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sungbo%27s_Eredo or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agbani_Darego, or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oluchi_Onweagba? Do you really mean to say that picture you have selected is more relevant than all these? Is this really how wiki reported for other countries?

I think this should be on a separate page.

Many Thanks,

Hi Puffin,

I reverted Jean Seberg as she is quite famous for her experience with the FBI in the 1960s. I cleaned up the text and removed some quotes, but notably the FBI internal documents are quite important. Also, the way the document was written before was a whitewash for the FBI, which followed her for at least 3 years, if not ten. I've done reading on the topic, and the FBI got the US government involved in her direction in Paris, as well. Thanks for your help.

Oh, I'm not sure if you are familiar with what it is to be investigated by the FBI. They do drive people to suicide. Basically they take the person's life apart. This happened to the guy suspected of the Olympics bombing (Richard Jewell) who turned-out to be innocent, but before that was determined, the FBI did a huge job of discredit of him. It happened to Dr. Bruce Ivins, the anthrax-suspect after 9/11. There's other examples. Invetsigating people to death, before they go to trial is kind of an "FBI-specialty".

As for Ms. Seberg, her donating money to black people and minorities violated stated policy of racial purity the FBI espoused. I forget the exact name. It might even have been "racial terrorism". Amazingly, this was how civil rights was viewed back then. It seems you are based in Europe, but the U.S. was very segregated in the 1960s.

 * I think you should be thanking User:Nymf, they just reverted to the revision that I made as it was neutral, thanks anyway.  Puffin  Let's talk! 18:01, 8 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh, right. Well.  Neutral.  There's quite a few articles on the relationship of the abuse to her suicide:
 * * (In 1979) Time Magazine, LA times, "generally papers nationwide in the United States"
 * * (In 2009) The LA Times/Daily Mirror did a review of the situation, citing all old articles.
