Cheeseburger
Hey, thanks for the cheeseburger. I try to stick to fish and fowl, so this is a nice treat, if only I could reach in and grab it. :-)Anythingyouwant (talk) 23:22, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

copyright issues at Devyani Khobragade incident
I noticed that you removed the copyright problem tags at Devyani Khobragade incident. Given that the issue remains unresolved, no one has responded to the note I left on the talk page and (as far as I can tell) copyright bots have not flagged the issue, I believe the tags should remain until the problem is addressed.

 * If its blatant and you've found the article its pulled from, just yank the content and cite that its copyrighted material. The other solution is to paraphrase it or ask to have it rewritten on the Talk page. Either is an acceptable resolution. --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy...

Disambiguation link notification for December 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited EBay, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Native American (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

BLP applies to talk pages
WP:BLP applies to any Wikipedia page. Adding redlinked names of real people in that list, even as a talk page suggestion, is improper. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 17:13, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Please don't insist on re-adding names on that talk page, even if you've got a reference for some of them. Take a look at the banner at the top of the talk page. I urge you to remove that material. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 17:34, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * When dealing with BLP topics, especially ones which could be controversial in any way, it's better to keep your notes somewhere off-Wikipedia until and unless you have solid references to reliable sources, rather than to post them anywhere on this site (even talk pages and sandboxes). I've occasionally been amazed what kinds of obscure Wikipedia content is uncovered by search engines. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  18:14, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * OK, fair enough, but what exactly is the nature of the problem? A simple Google search of almost every name revealed a person with a name or stage name that is a porn actor.

Zimmerman controversy in eBay article
Hello Scalhotrod. This was already accepted by editor Barek so I am confused why you deleted it. I am also confused as this is/was a major controversy, irrespective of whatever ebay allows or doesn't allow. eBay allowed Zimmerman to list his painting, but disallowed another artist listing their painting in response. This is extremely noteworthy and was referenced extensively. Can we have a third wiki editor review this as an impartial adjudicator? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hamaze01 (talk • contribs) 09:11, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not the only one deleting your entry. Its not Notable for the article, its not consistent with the style of the content for the section, and just because you have a source for it does not mean it belongs in the article. You're speedily on your way to a block if you keep reverting it. --
