:::I'm afraid your apparent willingness to assume good faith is contradicted by your other comments. Putting "forgot" in italics, referring to how JB's edits could "look like shameless attempt to defraud" and "give more credibility to those who will allege underhanded conduct" don't seem compatible with assuming good faith. Making demands as to what other editors do is not that pleasant either. I'd ask that you try to be more civil towards others. ] (]) 18:23, 22 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
::::Fair enough, though I think my point was that a little effort (before or after my comments) towards publicly acknowledging and explaining a mistake would go a long way towards restoring any potentially lost faith. ] doesn't mandate a continued assumption of such when there is evidence to the contrary, and instead of dealing with the issue in the prescribed manner (which is generally transparent, acceptable, and would put the issue to bed) he simply tried to make it appear as if it never happened. No offense was intended, however bad behavior is often best corrected when immediately called out and dealt with. Not that this is the forum, but I take the civility comment to heart -- it's been a long 5 years dealing with difficult articles on Misplaced Pages, and undoubtedly my frustrations generally caused a rather terse response to this editor that was unwarranted and probably doesn't help the situation much (on an interpersonal level). For that, I apologize. //] <small>( ] / ] )</small> 18:33, 22 October 2009 (UTC) | |||
:::::Thanks for your response. I am able to completely appreciate that sometimes trying to improve the project can be quite frustrating and that can lead to problems. I also appreciate that assume good faith only works up a point and that I might not be aware of all the facts in forming a judgement. I agree, as I've clearly said, that striking out the vote rather than removing it completely would be preferable but it is important to recognise that it is really for JB to ultimately decide what action they consider appropriate. I think perhaps you should try to stick to simply making suggestions. The impression I got from some of your comments were that you were more making demands and that can upset people.

Spider Loc & Young Buck controversy
Hey boss, what is the issue you have with the Spider Loc and Young Buck controversy that you keep deleting the entire paragraph after numerous users have updated and added content to it? Are you not recognizing the beef as factual? Check out Spider Loc's homepage or MySpace page or any one of a thousand websites (including MTV) that have covered the controversy. I think at the very least, there needs to be a section for this controversy considering Spider has released several diss tracks on mixtapes and has confirmed that the primary diss track "Lean On Me" will be appear on his next album. I wont re-edit the page until I hear back from you, but please consider the addition as I think it adds a lot to the page. Thanks. (209.87.194.21 (talk) 14:11, 19 July 2008 (UTC))

- I agree with you about requiring strong sources for any information in the article. The article is a magnet for vandalism and unsourced speculation, and just reverting the vandalism / speculation has put it in my 5 most edited articles. We need to keep being aggressive in removing all unsourced additions to the article to keep the article in compliance with WP:BLP. You've been doing a great job! Royalbroil 14:28, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Michael Cavlan
Greetings, JB. You !voted to delete the article on Michael Cavlan due to absence of "evidence of non-trivial coverage by multiple, reliable publications".

A little confusion
Hi there, I noticed you removed an artist's entire discography besides albums, as you did in this edit. If you read Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Music/MUSTARD/Discography, it states: Pages on performers should have discography sections. These should be subdivided into albums and singles, or other simple systems as needed. Because Tyga's discography is small, it is appropriate to have the subsections of singles, guest appearances, and so on. Removing something per a talk page, in this case Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Musicians, is incorrect. Just thought I'd point it out. DiverseMentality 05:02, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
- No I would have to disagree with you on your point of guest appearances and would be willing to discuss that with you on a more appropriate talk page, such as the relevant article talk page or the WikiProject talk page. JBsupreme (talk) 00:34, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Edit summaries for PROD nominations
Just a friendly reminder to use an edit summary when proposing deletion for an article. Edit summary usage is always good, but it is especially important that edit summaries are used when proposing deletion. The reason for this is that articles proposed for deletion that later have the {{prod}} tag removed should not be proposed for deletion again, but rather sent to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion. The only easy way to check if an article was previously proposed for deletion is to look at the edit history and the edit summaries people have left before.

CSD Taggings
Hello, when marking pages for speedy deletion, please be sure to use proper criteria. "uploader has a NASTY HISTORY of uploading images with FAKE LICENSES!!!" is not a valid reason to delete something and could constitute a personal attack. If you notice a user is repeatedly uploading images without copyright information, give them a warning to inform them of the situation, and contact an administrator if the situation continues. For more information on how to tag these photos, please see WP:IFD. Thank you. Hersfold 02:25, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- I suggest you check their upload history first. I would also counter that it damn well is a valid reason to speedy delete something. If you don't like it, sorry. JBsupreme (talk) 02:26, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
PeanutButterWiki Deletion Vote
Hi. I noticed you voted for the deletion of the PeanutButterWiki article, claiming that there were "hundreds of other wiki farms just like it", but I'm not sure you'd find this statement to be true if you had researched it. I would challenge you two find one that hosts more private wikis (over 300,000 are hosted at PBwiki) and as far as we're aware, only one provider (WetPaint) hosts more wikis (we host ~600,000 wikis, WetPaint just crossed 1m last month). We're prominently cited in a Newsweek article this week alone and have been dozens of major press publications. So I'd like to ask you to please ensure that votes you place for articles for deletion contain factually correct statements. And yes, I am the founder and chairman of PBwiki, Inc.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Layzie Bone. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Consensus is how Misplaced Pages works, make your case on the talk page, don't just unilaterally redirect when you know it is controversial please.

Edit summary usage
JBsupreme, you need to start using edit summaries; you barely ever use them at all. This is especially important when you are nominating articles for deletion, such as here, just now; it is time-consuming and annoying to have to check every single one of your edits to see what you've done, especially since you tend to make large-scale changes in one edits; large trims or additions of PRODs or AfDs. I realize that you'll probably just remove this message as you have all the others, but your lack of edit summary usage of any kind, even just to say "trim" or "AfD", is testing the patience of many members of the community. Thanks. GlassCobra 16:46, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'm trying to make it a habit to mention the article is pending deletion, if I overlook this please feel free to add a null edit summary on my behalf and point it out to me when I forget. Thanks. JBsupreme (talk) 23:36, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
Improperly sourced edits
Am I within my right to remove improperly sourced edits from a BLP-related article? I formally stated my objection on the talk page of the offending article, and explained in detail to the offending user (JJJ999) why his changes violate WP:VERIFY and WP:NPOV. Following a request for comment, a neutral editor (DGG) also voiced concern that the material is improperly sourced. User JJJ999 seems to beleive that editors are not allowed to undo his changes, and that they must correct the offending material for him instead, even though I believe it is low quality and beyond repair. Dynablaster (talk) 17:03, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

First thing's first, good work cleaning up that article, getting rid of some of the more pointless stuff on there (wannabe gangbangers trying to rep their "set"). I have to say though I disagree with your removal of the Piromalli 'ndrina (a sourced article) and some of the yakuza clans. Dojin-kai and Goto-gumi are both sourced (I haven't bothered to check the rest, if they aren't sourced I'm sure they can be). Nicknackrussian (talk) 15:21, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

And second, I am not even sure why they were blocked in the first place. None of them have any prior blocks, are indef blocked accounts, and they all see to be well intentioned. I am going to leave a note for the blocking admin, and try and contact the CheckUser in this case. Please bear with us. Tiptoety 05:46, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- I confirm Rlevse's CheckUser results. However, I don't believe there's any evidence of abusive sockpuppetry here. This does appear a bit strange, though. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 07:06, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- JBsupreme, do you have anyone else (wife/kids/roommates) in your household that also edits on Misplaced Pages? You need to provide strong evidences because your IP returns 4 other accounts, which is a lot of accounts under same IP for a single household unless you're living in university's residence. I shall review my decision when you present your evidences. And if you do get unblocked, you should make an advance declaration on each user page in the same household, per WP:SHARE OhanaUnited 13:47, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

←I am very disappointed in the way this was handled. For starters myself and Nishkid both have stated that there really is no evidence of abusive sockpuppetry and yet this account remains blocked. I know plenty of administrators and users who have created multiple sock-accounts in good faith, and choose not to use them disruptively. Just because a user has sock accounts does not mean they have violated the sockpuppetry policy. Second, I am disapointed that the blocking admin reviewed and declined the unblock request which clearly violates the appeal policy. Ohana, I wish to avoid any unnecessary drama so I ask that you please unblock the account, with a rather forgiving unblock summary so that this does not mess up anything in the future for this user. (Also per WP:SOCK, users do not have to disclose sock accounts if they are operating in good faith, it is only recommended.) Tiptoety 15:24, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- Declination rejected. Reviewing one's own blocks is flagrant administrative misconduct from both the lens of community norms and policy; this was an obvious error that needed immediate rectification. There is no abusive sockpuppetry going on here, if any, and it is patently unfair to hold a good editor's privileges hostage until they reveal details about their living situation. To JBsupreme: this sequence of edits is quite strange... if you are in fact Urgblame, be aware that you've been nailed and that breaching experiments such as reverting your own unconstructive edits are unwelcome. I've unblocked you already, so happy editing and stay out of trouble. :-) east718 // talk // email // 17:45, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- Looks like a good course of action to me. Tiptoety 19:03, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- Unless there is something I've missed. I concur with the unblock, at least of this account. This looks like a productive, contributing editor to me. If abusive sockpuppetry was afoot, hopefully some learning has occurred, and we won't see a repeat. If a block is needed, I would suggest discussion at WP:AN/I before implementing it. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 19:14, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't initiated the RFCU myself. Someone else was also supicious about JBsupreme's behaviour. Furthermore, if he created these accounts in good faith, there's no harm done in disclosing and nothing to hide, right? He still hasn't answered why the IPs are related. OhanaUnited 19:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- I actually initiated the RCU because of what looked like tagteaming on the Bowler hat article by JBsupreme and a mysterious user:NajiimP who appeared out of nowhere to support JB's deletionism. Turns out both had muliple accounts, but no connection between them. I didn't see any sock-abuse either in JB's case (just a bunch of add alternate and little-used accounts) and so didn't request any action. I see that NajiimP has been nailed for 3-sock editing of a single article, and that's just as well, because I think he's been around WP even more than all his accounts and edits-together, suggest. JBsupreme appears a good-faith editor, albeit one who has an infuriating habit of making large deletions with in-your-face edit summaries. I'm glad to see his unblock and hope he goes on to contribute here at little less boldly when it comes to deletions, and with a little more use of article TALK pages. (hint). And JB, my apologies. To some extent if you were experimenting with alternate or ill-remembered accounts, or somebody else was with your computer, you sort of got caught in the crossfire.

Gangland (TV series)
I reverted your unexplained edit to Gangland (TV series) the result of which was simply to mess up the table. Also in reviewing your edit history, you have a habit of not using the edit summary, making many of your edit very suspect. Please note that unexplained edits with no apparent reason can be reverted as vandalism. It would greatly help other editors to understand what you are doing if you made use of the edit summary to explain why you are deleting a link or any other edit that is not self evident as to why the edit is being made.

Unsourced dates of birth
Hi JBsupreme. Regarding this edit: Unsourced dates of birth are typically not removed from BLPs unless there is some reason to believe they are incorrect. Was there a reason in this case? Or it could be that there is something in WP:BLP that I am missing or understanding differently. Thanks in advance for any clarification. Paul Erik 17:58, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- If you have a source please reinstate it. I've seen many instances where we are perpetuating wrong dates of birth and this makes Misplaced Pages look unreliable. This problem specifically affects hip-hop biographies to a greater degree. Hope that helps you. JBsupreme (talk) 18:02, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, yes it does. I had not realized that this had been a problem with hip-hop biographies. IMDB lists Rocsi's date of birth as agreeing with Misplaced Pages, but IMDB is not a reliable source. I've just found a 2005 article in the Chicago Tribune which says, "she refuses to give her exact age", so it's probably best to leave it out of her biography here.

debby gibson
why did you take off the link for videos? all the websites has ads and affiliated links. Its very disrespecting to the small website owners. You start a website put any content and promote it then you will know the pain. No we don't do that we just destroy the other website by deleting the external links for no reason and help the greedy corporate world. If you want to remove that link you should delete all the website that has ads and any other affiliate links. Debby Gibson is not popular like Britney spears . so im trying to spread the word for the artists i like. and you guys keep deleting if they are not popular. there is cnn.com, imbd.com and many other links that has ads. why don't you remove them? so wiki runs this website with their own money? they get donations from other websites. Where do they get these donations? from all of us its a team work we are like a family. so don't delete the link. its extremely unfair. If you invest some money and run something then you will know what it feel likes and what a business is.

Im telling you one more time everyone runs their websites with affliate ads. No one runs with their own money.

WP:ANI
There is currently a thread on WP:ANI concerning your edit summaries found here. — Σxplicit 20:35, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Edit summaries again
JBsupreme, the rough consensus at the thread on ANI is that your edit summaries are still not acceptable. They've improved considerably in the past month or so, but they're still laced with gratuitous profanity in some cases explicitly directed at others , even if not directly describing them, as was problematic before. Really the problem is not profanity per se as much as it is incivility, but the former contributes to the latter.
Given the tepid response of admins at ANI, I hesitate to say that you'll be blocked if this issue continues at its current level. So, my suggestions are two-fold. First, despite the messages above, not using any edit summaries would be the lesser of two evils (it's rarely disruptive to leave it blank, although it's a bit discourteous). If you can't resist cursing in edit summaries or typing them aggressively in all caps, then just don't use them! If you can write them more neutrally, then all the better. Second, if you need page protection, go to WP:RFPP to request it. That will work better than asking for it in edit summaries.
Something that went unsaid at ANI is that many of your edits (including those at issue) are enforcing the WP:BLP policy. That is hugely important and we need all the help we can get with BLPs. I understand that the poor sourcing and intentional defamation can be frustrating to deal with. I encourage you to work with others on the BLP Noticeboard or to contact me directly on my talk page to get some help with difficult BLPs. A helping hand, especially one with admin tools, could make it easier.--chaser - t 05:03, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Andy Samberg article
Why do you have keep deleting the impressions section of the Andy Samberg article? It is useful information that is properly cited, and an impressions list are fixtures of other SNL cast members' pages, such as Bill Hader and Darrell Hammond Nobody else has any problem with that addition, and I would note that there are numerous complaints of your unnecessary deletion of articles and sections of articles in this talk page. And quoting from WP: Other stuff exists article in response to your last reason for deletion,
In an article's deletion debate, an editor unfamiliar with guidelines may vote to keep an article solely because articles similar to it exist. Another contributor may respond simply by saying that just because other stuff exists does not mean that the article in question should be kept. While perhaps a legitimate response, the automatic dismissal of such a statement is just as lacking in rationale and thus the second user has provided no reason to delete the article.
Angry, Purplebackpack89 (talk) 20:57, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- You are adding tons of unsourced trivia. Your WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument holds no water. I cannot stress this enough. It is a list of trivia. It does not use prose.

I went through the history, and found there used to be quite a few. So I just had a quick look through the links. They seemed fairly relevant, so I copy and pasted them back in.

Hello, JBsupreme. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Jauerback/dude. 14:03, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi there. Regarding Khia's "My Neck, My Back"...
Hello. So I just saw that you reverted my last edit to the "Early Controversy" section, as my edit deleted the unreferenced section tag you added and instead I replaced it with a source. The source I replaced your tag with simply redirected to the charts section of the article. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming the reason why you added the tag to begin with is because none of the chart positions in that section were sourced? However they are sourced, just not in that section, but rather, in the chart section itself. If you were adding the 'unreferenced section' tag because of another part of that section, it's best to add a "" tag to the content in question instead. Thanks. Percxyz (Call me Percy, it's easier) 19:06, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- No it is not best to add a fact tag. I'm not sure where you ever heard that. Jimbo Wales disagrees. JBsupreme (talk) 19:55, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Also, why are you citing a diff? Do not cite another Misplaced Pages article as a source, and definitely do not cite a diff. If you have a valid source for something, just cite the actual source. JBsupreme (talk) 19:56, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- No no, I didn't cite another article, nor did I cite a diff. I cited the charts section within the same article. I figured that since you felt the need to add an unreferenced section tag, I'd take it out and, instead of re-adding the sources from the charts section, add one source that leads to the chart section itself. Either way, I ended up citing the chart positions within the Early Controversy (now Backgrond) section without citing the article itself, so I hope that clears it up. Percxyz (Call me Percy, it's easier) 21:54, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- That's more like it, thanks Percyxz. JBsupreme (talk) 23:22, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Maravilla
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Maravilla. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Maravilla (4th nomination). Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Did you delete most of the information on the Maino page because it was sourced mostly by his personal site?

Steppin: The Movie
I just did a quick copyedit at the article. While it still needs to be adequately sourced, I think with respects, a withdrawal may be in order to allow it to further be improved. The cast alone shows its gonna get coverage, as it was finally released only 8 days ago. I was able to cite it being the both the directorial debut and last film for Michael Taliferro. It might be best to see where this one goes. Maybe? Schmidt, 02:37, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

IP
I unblocked the IP 73.93.78.209 because amid all the vandalism there was a single sincere and productive editor who was trying hard. The unblock let him register an account, and I hope he will become an asset to Misplaced Pages. I will be happy to schoolblock the IP now that that's done: there's no need to shout. It's a useful reminder that IP blocks can prevent both the good and the bad from editing. Acroterion (talk) 22:22, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Red Bull Cola
"Lets be careful with what we add to the Red Bull Cola article. Every report I've read so far (and yes, I've read them all quite thoroughly) seems to contradict itself or say that the ingredients used by Red Bull are de-cocainized. There is no WP:DEADLINE here so lets wait until this has been fact checked by another reliable agency before we go around proclaiming Red Bull has cocaine in it, trace amounts or not. There are legal issues here at stake and there is no reason to intentionally cause harm to the reputation of Red Bull or put Misplaced Pages in any type of danger. Is there? JBsupreme (talk) 00:49, 28 May 2009 (UTC)"
Every article I've read says .4 microns. I don't care about the Red Bull corporation. They won't sue us for reporting a fact, just like they haven't sued any major news corporations. Do you know how I know there's cocaine in it? It's being banned for having cocaine in it.

Source issue
I know you have been active on several articles about street gangs, so I wanted to get your input on using streetgangs.com as a source. Personally, I don't think it meets the standards of being a reliable source. The problem with the gang articles often if lack of reliable sources (and vandalism by wannabe's). Sometimes I'm willing to give the source a pass if it's being used in a very limited role, but when it is being used for important parts of the article, I'm less inclined to turn a blind eye towards it. I kind of wanted to see if I'm the only one thinking this way before I made an issue of it in some of the articles. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:37, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Ryan Ross
Hi, you removed several paragraphs from Ryan Ross, without an edit summary, was there a reason for this. There seems to be several attempts to reduce the size of article recently. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:23, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes. Unsourced WP:BLP. -- I have reinstated the redirect as per Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Brendon Urie (2nd nomination).

Lets see if the growth can happen organically in the parent article before we go about creating dozens of microstubs. JBsupreme (talk) 04:40, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Reliable source question
I'm sure you are a lot more informed on the reliable sources in for the rap genre than I am.

Also maybe give the article a look and see what your opinions are if you have time. Thanks. Niteshift36 (talk) 04:42, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Questioning Sources

Undid revision on Music of Detroit
I'm relatively new to WP as an active editor so possibly I'm missing something "obvious". However, you made a revision to Music of Detroit for which the edit summary says merely, (Undid revision 302171444 by Dfjhsdf39 (talk)).
It appears to me that that revision consisted of little more than the addition of "Big Herk, K-Deezy," to the list of Detroit rappers. However, your change (a) removed the entire paragraph listing all of those rappers (from previous edits as well), (b) removed five entire paragraphs from another section, and (c) added more text (about 20 words) still elsewhere. (It's rather confusing, since the summaries don't match the diffs shown by WP.)
I'm wondering if you meant to make all those changes or if some of them were inadvertent. If you intended them, your mods aren't really well covered by the simple "undid revision" summary. (Seems to be a problem you've been working on, from other notes on your Talk page.)
Also, the paragraphs you removed were all in one section (1980s), so you removed the whole section, but now the article has a big jump from the 1970s to the 1990s. Hey, I didn't like the music of Detroit in the 80s either, but the article shouldn't have that hole.
I'd be inclined, even as a novice editor, to revert your change as obvious vandalism, sneaking in extensive edits under the guise of some simple reversion. However, you appear to have been around a long time, and seem to edit in good faith, even if your edit summaries aggravate people. So I'll just leave this note, and hope for some clarification here, but please add back the 1980s section. Thanks! –JohnFromPinckney (talk) 12:27, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Please add sources for said section. JBsupreme (talk) 16:32, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- It appears this has been an issue for 8 months now, so I will be challenging a few more sections full of original research as well. JBsupreme (talk) 16:35, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- Hi, JBsupreme. Thanks for taking another look. Sorry, I don't expect to be adding any sources, as I've never heard of a lot of these claims or even many of the performers. It looks like your tagging activity has provoked one SmackBot into action, though, so maybe things are looking better already. (The page has truly needed work. No wonder it was already tagged.) Three other minor things:
- (1) I notice your most recent mods don't have any edit summary at all. Is that usual for WP editors?
- (2) I see you changed the Article issues-expand tag at the top of the article to an original research parameter, but you left the date as November 2008. Isn't that misleading? Or how does the dating on those work?
- (3) Last and indeed least: You changed the title of this section. I know it's your Talk page, but why did you do that?
- Thanks for the welcome to WP, and I hope we can work more together. –JohnFromPinckney (talk) 06:13, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't both making edit summaries for every single edit I do, if it becomes a hard and fast rule that its necessary then a change should be made to the software. The article has had original research issues prior to 2008 and we need sourcing before we need expansion. The expansion tag is mostly useless IMHO.

Hey, regarding your edits to Sorority Row
No, no. I dare not accuse a reg. user of vandalism. I just wanted to stop by and say, firstly, thanks. Not many editors/wikipedians seem to be paying this article ANY mind, especially on a regular basis. And, yes, ya got meh. I mispelled "minutes"; it happens.
On the flip side, though, I would ask that you:
A. Try to alter the general tone of your edits. They seem...snarky and dismissive.
B. Perhaps, just perhaps, do more to improve the article directly, rather than just making minor edits and slapping on templates/warnings. Every little bit helps. but big edits help even more.

Deleting a bunch of stuff on the Del page
Hey,
I know the Del page needs to be cleaned up a lot, but wouldn't it make more sense to put a bunch of "citation needed" notices instead of deleting multiple paragraphs of info? I think that a lot of that stuff could be backed up if people just took the time to cite it. It seems counterproductive to me to just get rid of it all. I know you could just pull it back from the history and cite it, but people may not know to look. What do you think?
Thanks,

- I would maybe post something on the talk page. Actually, I'll do that later on tonight. If we cannot source it then WP:BLP dictates it does not belong in the article. JBsupreme (talk) 05:40, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
- Cool. Actually, most of it should be pretty easy to source (this DVD came out here, this CD was supposed to come out but never did, etc). And the whole last paragraph containing the long quotes, I looked them up, and were copied verbatim from a record label's website, so it should be rewritten anyway. I'll copy that stuff to the talk page since you haven't gotten around to it yet. Orblivion (talk) 12:46, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

We are being proposed for blocking at ANI
And neither of us have been notified of the proposal under some assumption that we follow ANI. I do, it is not apparent that you are. Miami33139 (talk) 17:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
- It is pretty obvious that A) Misplaced Pages needs a lot of house cleaning and that B) the parties on ANI proposing such things have a clear conflict of interest. If someone wants to ban me for doing necessary house cleaning around here, be my guest! JBsupreme (talk) 18:00, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Log/2009 October 2#Bullshido.net
Since you participated in Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Bullshido.net (3rd nomination), which was closed as "no consensus", you may be interested in a subsequent DRV. Since I disagreed with the close, I contacted the closing admin, who responded, "To be honest, Cunard, I would tend to agree with you, but I am not sure if the balance of things heads to delete rather than no consensus. Listing it at DRV might be a good option here; I won't endorse or oppose the close and will allow the DRV community to decide it. Therefore, I have listed this article at DRV; if you would like to participate, please see Misplaced Pages:Deletion review/Log/2009 October 2#Bullshido.net.

Hood 2 Hood
What you got against Hood 2 Hood: The Blockumentary? Portillo (talk) 11:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- I thought he was pretty clear....that it's the same reasons I nominated it. The film isn't notable. It's been out for 4+ years and there is almost no coverage of it (We can't discount that one small circulation weekly newspaper). A nobody director made a film nobody cared about and distributed it thought a company that is non-notable. Niteshift36 (talk) 13:57, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Oh i didnt know it was you that nominated it. It may not be that famous, but its a part of the growing number of reality documentarys, you know about gangs, street fights etc. Portillo (talk) 05:03, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
- Being part of a growing number doesn't make it notable. There are a gorwiing number of computer programs, but all aren't notable and many get deleted. So do bands, albums, politicians and actors....all deleted because of lack of notability. The fact that this movie came and pretty much left without the media seeming to care indicates a lack of notability. Niteshift36 (talk) 11:49, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
WikiReader
Hi JB. I just left this comment on the WikiReader AFD you started --
- "Actually, that's not correct. The earlier AFD was for something completely different -- Misplaced Pages:WikiReader, which was a wikis-to-print initiative that was the predecessor of Misplaced Pages:Books. This is a piece of hardware, developed by a completely different group. I'm not seeing the "self promotional spam" part, either; article was written by people unconnected with the project. Request withdrawal of AFD, based on faulty information."
I was around for the earlier WikiReader project (I have some of them!), and I am pretty confident that I'm right about this :) best, -- phoebe / (talk to me) 22:19, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
- agree with phoebe, the first afd was from 2006 and does not refer to the device being currently called WikiReader. Having an afd tag affixed to the article chases away potential good edits, hoping for nom withdraw please kindly thanks good sirriffic (talk) 22:28, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Multiple AFD !votes
Why on earth are you issuing multiple !votes during an AFD?
I suggest you strike your second !vote and give a clear explanation as to why you thought it was acceptable (lest it look like shameless attempt to defraud). //Blaxthos ( t / c ) 12:59, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
