| Yes, our painfully handsome, incredibly rich and fabulous friend has heightened the language on his website to Threat Alert Olive. I'm not planning on querying Jimbo about the courtesy blanking, because if the guy's going to such extents to cover his tracks, I can only imagine he's going to steer clear of WP from now on. It's intriguing, though. Feels like he's got an elaborate scam going on. Or maybe he just wants to feel like a big shot. It's probably the latter, because I can't imagine a scam artist of any competence overplaying his hand like that. But his keywords are definitely going to remain on my watchlist. | |||

Nasdijj
Just wanted to say congratulations on the work you have done on the Nasdijj article. I'm following the story with interest, as I have an academic interest in forged identities, and your clear and unbiased report may be used in an article I'm hoping to publish on the case. Cheers, James. Vizjim 22:11, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Nasdijj
Given whatever the hey is going on over at Nasdijj, please tell me you've a copy of your article saved? Vizjim 23:03, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, I just used Google's archive function and now have a copy of the page saved on my hard drive with all links preserved. Once the strange vibes around the page have settled down and we have some clarity, I'd be happy to email it to you to reinstate if necessary (username at AOL). Vizjim 23:07, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
Just to make sure you saw this
My actions on Nasdijj were taken without a specific review of any of the claims in the article. We had a complaint about the article, and a quick glance at it shows that it does deal with a potentially extremely difficult topic, and it is better to carefully get everything exactly right before proceeding. I am happy to see you working on the rebuild. :) A few people seemed to be offended on your behalf, but I wanted to be sure you understood that I only intend that the article be excellent, and offered no judgment positive or negative on what was already there. :)--Jimbo Wales 10:55, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you
Hi, Just wanted to say thanks for the message you left about the Bette Davis article. It was a very welcome surprise when I logged in. I'm glad you like it. cheers Rossrs 22:19, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
Fake Diploma Mills
How is hyperlinking to the home pages of Bellford, Ashwood, and Rochville a "nuetral" act? A hyperlink from Misplaced Pages helps these fraudsters greatly in search engine rank, which helps them reach more victims. Why not simply type the URL in plain text if you must reveal their domains?

It would be great if you could address the detailed evidence at http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:Belford_University

Kola Boof
What needs to be done is for all wikipedians editing this page need to be unbiased (the pro Kola Boof people and the anti Kola Boof people I'm talking about here). Most of these new edits that give so much focus to bin Laden is not needed as it is not germane to Kola Boof and if anything should have an article of it's own if need be, but even that can be debated. Not to mention that many of these new citation sources come from the same website and may be biased against Ms. Boof and that should be noted. MrKing84 03:02, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
