Quick question on an article you reviewed
Hi Salimfadhley, I am looking through a number of articles on children's television programming that have been subject to subtle vandalism and hoaxes. I noticed the other day that you had reviewed the article on Toontastic Jr. Pirates presents Whiskers Revenge, and I was wondering if you had verified that the film was real when you reviewed it. I don't see any evidence online and I'm inclined to nominate it for deletion as a hoax, but I thought I'd check in with you before doing so. Do you remember this review at all? Thanks in advance. -Thibbs (talk) 11:47, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi again Salimfadhley, I'm sorry to keep pestering you about this but it bothers me that there are active hoaxes in mainspace and I would like to remove them if I can. I am not very familiar with this area of Wikipedia (Children's TV programming) so I don't know if there is someone else I should talk to but I want to ask again if you know anything about this Toontastic issue. I see from comments such as these that there have been a number of hoaxes related to it, but I don't really want to remove all traces of this information if some of it is accurate. I am currently considering the validity of Toontastic Easter and Toontastic In Paris, films listed at Hayden Panettiere and at 2009 in home video. Do you know of a good way to verify whether these kinds of films are real or not? I checked imdb, but they don't seem to have a very extensive children's collection. Are there children's-TV-specific resources that might help me? I can see that the Whiskers Revenge film I linked earlier has now been deleted as a hoax, but can you help me understand your review of it? Was there a website or offline resource you consulted that contained false information or were you just reviewing for punctuation and grammar? Or was the determination that it was a hoax an error? If you are too busy to give a full response right now please let me know so that I don't spend weeks waiting for a reply. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer. -Thibbs (talk) 15:49, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Thibbs, the article appears to have been deleted, and along with it any edit history or comments I might have made during this alleged review. As to what checks I might have made at the time, I do not remember. It is not a subject I have any particular interest in. I suggest that the entire range of topics should be transwiki'd to another site that specializes in cataloguing the details of animation compilation shows. --Salimfadhley (talk) 13:54, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Well the comments you made during your review were "Articles should make an attempt to describe the significance of a subject, not just describe plot." but there's no indication of what checks you made to verify the title. I was just hoping you might remember. Anyway thanks for your help regardless. I will probably move forward removing some of these hoax titles in the next few days. Cheers, -Thibbs (talk) 14:06, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I suggest you carry on with that plan. --Salimfadhley (talk) 17:58, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Hi User:Caballero1967, thanks for your email and your interest in Belinda Parmar. You are free to edit the article yourself, however I would suggest that as with any BLP type article you should fix problems if you can rather than tag inappropriately. I previously removed the tags added by User:82.11.177.11 since the article is obviously not "autobiographical", nor have I been the major contributor to this article. If you would care to review my own changes you will see that they have been strictly administrative and confined to tidying up, spelling, correcting citations and eliminating exaggerations added by others which contained obvious puffery. --Salimfadhley (talk) 19:23, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
