Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Misplaced Pages. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Jon Stewart. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use the sandbox instead, where you are given a good deal of freedom in what you write. Paul Erik 03:28, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Your recent edit in ISIS

I see you entered your footnote for this edit as a bare URL. Could you write it in the normal way, please, the using cite-web or cite-news template? If you don't know how to do this there are instructions at at 3.1, or you can follow this (it's very simple): first put the cursor at the point in the edit text where you want the footnote to go, then click "Cite" in the edit strip at the top of the Edit Page, then click "Template" at the left, choose "cite web" or "cite news" and a box comes up, fill in the details of the citation, then click "Preview" and "Show parsed preview" to see it looks right (you can go back and correct anything by just correcting the box entries and then click those two "Previews" again), then click "Insert" and the citation automatically goes into the text at the point where the cursor is. Thanks. --P123ct1 (talk) 07:19, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

I see you have not altered the footnote yet. Could you attend to this, please? --P123ct1 (talk) 18:00, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Mike Huckabee may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Hello, I'm CorbieVreccan. I noticed that you recently removed content from Starwood Festival without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. - CorbieVreccan ☼ 19:41, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

It was deleted per a request of the VP of RP of the Starwood Festival. TGUSAGI (talk) 21:53, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. We are not here to help promoters clean up their image. If the festival is no longer psychedelic drug-oriented, you will need sourcing that documents that, and to the same degree that the drug stuff is, and has been, documented as a core part of this gathering. We don't blank content because the promoters don't like it. As it is, the creator of the article, and most of the articles connected to it, had serious COI. There have been so many spam/promo problems already, we don't need more. If you have new, third party WP:RS sources, bring them to article talk so we can discuss them. Do not keep blanking content. - CorbieVreccan ☼ 20:14, 16 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for the response Corbie. The SW festival is under new ownership by the Rosencomet Project, LLC, a non-profit corp. I forwarded your comments on to our voting members for discussion. TGUSAGI (talk) 23:40, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
