Hey. I am Richard Peterson. This photo is from a film I shot, Ironic Odyssey. It IS not a screen background. Please see the movie it is taken from at this link on Jeff Ragsdale's youtube page: http://www.youtube.com/jeffreyragsdale#p/u/4/v58Kt8Re1wA

Thank you, Richard Peterson. I own this photo.


 * Sorry but nowhere states that you are the copyholder, even IMDb. Tb hotch Ta lk C. 19:25, 20 October 2010 (UTC)


 * So add to the video description on YouTube a statement that stills are released under a Creative Commons licence - see cc-by-2.5. &mdash; RHaworth 19:51, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Jeff Ragsdale, you may be blocked from editing. ''Removing someone else's comments is not remotely acceptable, in particular when they raise a valid issue. Calling for them to be blocked at the same time is asking for a block yourself. You don't own the article on Jeff Ragsdale. Other users have every right to challenge the notability of the article.'' Sailsbystars (talk • contribs • email) 18:51, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Even though the article is plenty of sources (some of them unreliables), article's lead does not pass that rule. It talks about his television appearances and not his life nor his films, which are more important. If I were reviewing this article, I woud not give a "notability" tag, because it seems to pass it, instead I would add a "clean up". Talk with Theda and ask him/her for why the "notability" tag. If s/he comment the issues, work on them. Tb hotch Ta lk C. 04:34, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't worry about a notability tag. Agree with Tbhotch in principle, lead should assert notability (and not by saying ...is a notable X...) as a short summary of the subject.  Many refs are not necessarily needed for the lead, (although they are always nice to have) as the matter in the lead should be covered in more depth in the article proper.  Also the article should avoid phrases like "starred" unless these can be sourced. I didn't follow all the cites, but assuming they all recount individual success, this is not enough to say "starred" on WP.  One can say  "captained" if that's citable, or "scoring 30% of the teams points in season X".  Rich Farmbrough, 09:29, 21 November 2010 (UTC).


 * I have made a few minor changes, but my biggest criticism of the article was that on a third reading it seemed to be neither about Ragsdale, nor about his significant achievements, but about the media coverage of him. Of course this plays reasonably well to WP since we are so used to unsourced - and often unsourcable materials.  And indeed if his aim in life is column inches, and to be a notable self-publicist, and we grant that he has achieved that, this is a matter worthy of attention.  If however he is notable for his activism, for example, the article should expand on that. What other verifiable significant activism has he done? The same applies to his other claims to fame. Rich Farmbrough, 10:02, 21 November 2010 (UTC).


 * Re: your request on my page: I think I shall forgo this particular kerfuffle. There are more appropriate ways of getting more attention - WP:RFC, for example. As it is, the page looks a lot like a WP:PROMO page. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:54, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Block
As you may know from your reading of NLT, your legal threats bar you from editing WP until the termination of the process if any.

You may not be aware that the community also takes apparent physical threats, such as you posted on the IP's talk page extremely seriously.

For these reasons I have blocked this account indefinitely - i.e. until and unless you are unblocked by another administrator you may not edit, except for this page.

To request an unblock post " " on this page.

Rich Farmbrough, 11:09, 21 November 2010 (UTC).


 * Further to this I have requested a community ban, and that your posting be reported to the proper authorities, at WP:ANI. Rich Farmbrough, 11:25, 21 November 2010 (UTC).


 * Or, to put this more simply: "Wow, did you screw up". Half  Shadow  17:31, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
