Disambiguation link notification for August 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Inappropriate language (redux)

Hello HangingCurve. I've reverted your edit to Bulgarian parliamentary election, 1931 for several reasons. The most pressing was the fact that there was another multi-party election of sorts in 1939, but I'm also concerned about the unencyclopedic phrasing you used. "As it turned out" is really not suitable language for Misplaced Pages. I raised this issue with you in June, and also reverted an edit of yours to a German election article for using equally inappropriate language. There is really no call for adding these little phrases to the stuff you're adding. Thanks, Number 57 22:57, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for changing the wording of your statement. Re the change and your addition to the 1990 Albanian election article, do you have a source for either of those statements? The Bulgarian one is probably correct, but I've no idea about Albania. Cheers, Number 57 11:23, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Sal Vitale

I don't know how much you've read from Tony DeStefano's King of the Godfathers, but in its current state Salvatore Vitale borderline plagiarizes a lot of it (not full paragraphs, but some sentences.) If you're interested, it needs a major cleanup and I don't know when I can get to all of it. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 20:18, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Unsourced commentary

Please can you refrain from adding unsourced commentary to articles. One thing that is even more concerning is that here you completely change the content of a referenced sentence, but leave it referenced to that source, even though it does not say anything like what you have changed the sentence to. Number 57 08:38, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Re "1947 Romania coup d'etat"

I have redirected the article to the better sourced section of the article on Michael I. Misplaced Pages is not here to create knowledge, just to report what reputable scholars think... and the only Romanian coup d'etat widely recognized as such by scholars is the one that happened on August 23, 1944. What you (or I) may think about the subject is irrelevant, as long as you do not have your views published in a peer-reviewed journal (or in a book put out by a reputable publisher). The "article" also had many other problems, from generic judgements that distorted the material they were supposedly source to, up to presentation of primary sources (Michael's uncorroborated recollection of the events) as facts.

Referencing

Despite me asking you not to above, you have again attributed new material to an existing reference in an article that does not include the information. In this edit you attribute the claim that the Civic Forum received the highest % in a free election to the Nohlen reference, which does not support the claim. I'm afraid next time I see this happening, I will have to raise it as a WP:COMPETENCE issue. Thanks, Number 57 11:56, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
