:Yep, sourcing is always the main issues. Also remember to add the template {{tl|reflist}} or the magic word <references/> at the bottom of the page so we can see the references. But if you add some more reliable sources, it will look a lot better. I am about to leave right now, but just let me know when you have added the sources and I will review it tonight.

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment.

RE:Bo Burnham

Right now the article lacks any third-party reliable sources. The only sources on the page are from myspace and youtube, both websites are not considered reliable. You need better sources, and if you cannot find better sources, than Bo probably isnt notable enough right now to have a page. « Gonzo fan2007 (talkcontribs) @ 17:51, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for the wait. I have corrected the wikicode on the page and unprotected Bo Burnham. Now understand that my unprotecting this article is not an endorsement of the article, and it could very well be deleted by another admin. But looking back at the old deleted revisions of that page, this is by far the best written of them all. So what you should do now is go to User:Wikifan12345/Bo Burnham, at the top of the page one of the tabs should say "Move." Click that. You should get a page that gives you three boxes to write in. The first should be the page you are moving (and thus shouldnt be changed), the second is the target page, or the one you are moving this page to. Clear the second box and type in "Bo Burnham." The third box is a description of your move, just write something to the effect of "Moving draft into article namespace." Make sure after you move the article to add categories, if you need any help just let me know. « Gonzo fan2007 (talkcontribs) @ 18:37, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Page ban

Wikifan12345, per the ArbCom restrictions that we previously spoke about, I am asking you to stay off the Muhammad al-Durrah article and talkpage for one week. You are still welcome to participate at the mediation page in the meantime. Let me know if you have any questions, Elonka 22:50, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Stay Cool

Stay cool, wikifan. Elonka will be fair. You can participate at the mediation page still. She seems to want us to move the discussion there anyway. Let's do it. Don't forget, Wizardman is going to deal with content, and presumably not personalities. I believe our argument is the strongest. I am getting nothing from theirs except to ignore our points and negate our evidence. Let's let the mediation work. I am going to cool it a bit too. As my grannie used to say: "Rome wasn't built in a day." It will take 80 years before the icon's poison to leave the system, if ever. So hang in there. Tundrabuggy (talk) 00:42, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
