I am sorry if I violated some rule by adding a reference to an essay that is all about archaeologist George Mylonas and his career in the U.S.A. and Greece. I am about to write a new one about him and as I checked the Wikipedia entry for him which has not been updated since 2006, I thought that it would be a good idea to add mine. I could add more articles or books that have been written about Mylonas in the past 10 years. ([[User:Nvogei|Nvogei]] ([[User talk:Nvogei|talk]]) 07:00, 24 March 2018 (UTC)) |

Changes made
Hi Melcous
I have now made those changes. If you could let me know if it's been done correctly that would be brilliant.
It would be great to remove the notification and then I have a few requests to make about changes we'd like to make - as currently Jamie's profile isn't up to date.
Best wishes

- Hi BrookyTH, unfortunately you have still not made the correct disclosures as requested on your talk page, and I can't do them for you as you have not provided enough information. The connected contributor template needs to go on the article's talk page (not on yours), and include the name/s of those who have employed or paid you. There is also a problem with your notice on your user page as you repeatedly use the term "we", I assume for your firm. This suggests your account is able to be used by more than one person, which is not allowed per wikipedia's terms of use. Please try again to follow the steps I laid out on your talk page. Thanks, Melcous (talk) 07:48, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

Changes
Hi Melcous
Once again sorry - hopefully we are getting there now.
I've made those changes again using the standard template. I've also removed the "we" reference from our user page. If - in the future - we are asked to update client wikipedia pages I will update my user page. I will also request these changes are made rather than doing myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrookyTH (talk • contribs) 10:50, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
- BrookyTH Getting there, but still not quite, so I have gone ahead and made the disclosure for you on the article talk page to hopefully demonstrate to you what this should look like. Again, if you can use the template requested on your user page, rather than simply copying the content, that would be good. If you do not know how to do this, let me know and I can do it for you, but generally editors don't edit other people's user pages so I will only do so if you specifically ask. Thanks Melcous (talk) 11:47, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
- I've also noted in my edit summary on that article, that the issues with undisclosed paid editing go back prior to you with a number of other editors, and the article does not seem to have been substantially checked since then, so I have left a Conflict of interest notice in place - I will endeavour to check through it in the next few days if no one else does, or if you have specific suggestions you can request them on the talk page.

Psalms edits reversed
Greetings,
Regarding the edits I made to Psalms, which are marked as follows in the Edit History:
03:56, 5 February 2018 76.234.38.132 (talk) . . (70,425 bytes) (+663) . . (Because the moderators have (wisely) made it clear that discussion for or against authentic Davidic authorship belongs in the body and not in the header, I have moved said references to Structure, subsection 1.2. Also added citations/removed errors in 1.2)
These revisions were subsequently reversed.... I spent around 2-3 hours citing sources, correcting errors, adding information to create a more complete picture, and organizing parts of the page. My changes included:
(1) Addition of a contrary scholarly viewpoint with respect to the authenticity of Davidic authorship, backed by 4 scholarly sources (all with quotations). I don't understand why this would be insufficient, but the viewpoint citing one scholarly source with no quotations arguing against authentic Davidic authorship would be sufficient.
(2) I removed, in section 1.2, the words "and Psalm 110 to Melchizedek" from the phrase "The Talmud also states in Sanhedrin 38b that Psalm 139 belongs to Adam and Psalm 110 to Melchizedek." This is because the Sanhedrin 38b does not state Psalm 110 belongs to Melchizedek; this is plainly an error. See link to text: https://www.sefaria.org/Sanhedrin.38b?lang=bi
(3) I added citation links to the Talmud texts cited in 1.2 so visitors could read for themselves and prevent making the mistake in (2) above.
(4) Improved organization and coherence slightly.
I would very much like to help with this article, but I don't know why my edits were summarily dismissed in totality. I know that you can understand why it would be frustrating to have 2-3 hours of good faith effort get erased with no explanation. With that said, I'm sure you are very busy with your work here and meant no harm. If you could fill me in on how to proceed, I would greatly appreciate your time and attention. Thanks!

Delayed signature (my apologies): 76.234.38.132 (talk) 11:42, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
- Hi CB, thanks for your message and sorry for the delay in replying. I'm sorry that you feel that your efforts were dismissed, please do note that the content you added has not been erased, but is preserved in the article's edit history and thus can be seen and discussed by other editors. However, as you may have realised, your edits have coincided with some other edits that continue to be debated on this article.
With regards to the main point about David authorship, this has previously been discussed many times and the current wording reached by consensus. It is not one scholarly source arguing against David authorship, but rather the citation given is for one reliable source which summarises the positions of a number of scholars and reaches the conclusion as stated in the article that "David authorship is not universally accepted by modern scholars." This means obviously that it is accepted by some scholars, but not by all (and I would say not by most) scholars. So there is no need to present a 'counter' argument as the fact that there is more than one view is covered by this conclusion.
With regards to your edit about the Talmud, you are correct that this is not cited and that the information seems to be incorrect - I think if you want to correct that that would be good. (And as a note, making smaller edits, one key idea at a time is generally a better way to edit wikipedia articles so that things like this don't get tied together and can be assessed individually). Cheers, Melcous (talk) 12:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Updates and changes
Hi Melcous
Thank you for the amendment.
I'd like to update Jamie's page, but as requested I won't do this directly myself.
Would it be possible to make the following changes and updates?
Thank you BrookyTH
Change 1: Introduction
Please could we change the current line "he is the founder....in 2012" to
"He was the founder of JBW Group (a debt collection firm) in 2004 and then Hito (A FinTech company) which he founded in 2016. He sold both businesses for over £40 million and now operates a private equity fund, Firestarters.co.uk. He is married with two children and lives in London.
Change 2: Charities
Could we add a section called "Charities" with the following copy
"In 2017 the Jamie Waller foundation was set-up and is currently supporting a number of causes including The Princes Trust, Enterprise Scheme where Waller is Patron of the Trust and The Imps Motorcycle Display Team where Waller was once a member."
Change 3: Businesses
Could we add the following line to the end of this paragraph:
"Waller then went onto work in the debt recovery industry as an enforcement agent where in his early career he was held hostage at gun point."
Change 4: JBW Group
Please could we update this section to:
"Waller founded JBW Group in 2004 and sold the business to the Japanese outsourcing firm, OSI in 2016. He remained in the business for one year as Chairman until selling his remaining shares in 2017"
Change 5: Hito Limited
Could we change the Case Dynamics Limited section to be titled "Hito Limited" (the new name) and update as follows:
"Hito Limited (previously called Case Dynamics Limited) was launched in 2016. Waller sold the business just six months after product launch for a reported £9m."
Change 6: Firestarters
Could we add a new section called "Firestarters" please, with the following copy:
"Waller launched Firestarters a private equity vehicle in 2017. The business invests in a variety of businesses from consultancy services to car sales."
Change 7: Media Section
Could we add the following line to the end of the section:
"He is also a frequent contributor to UK news and radio where he specialises in entrepreneurship and personal finance.[18] Waller is the author of the business book; Unsexy Business." — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrookyTH (talk • contribs) 08:26, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
- Hi BrookyTH, these requests should be made on the article's talk page (Talk:Jamie Waller (entrepreneur)) rather than here, and the easiest way is to use the Template:Request edit at the beginning of your post. So you can copy and paste what you have written here there. However, you will also need to supply reliable, independent sources that confirm each additional piece of information that you are suggesting be added. Thanks, Melcous (talk) 12:28, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
Christopher Altman
Hi there, when you have a moment would you mind taking a look at your recent edits to Christopher Altman? I think this edit is the one which caused a ref error and some missing context from that paragraph. I'd patch it up myself but don't know exactly what should stay/go. Thanks! Jessicapierce (talk) 02:01, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- That reference error was tided up by Scope creep and I've now removed another cite error which was a second link to source removed as not a WP:RS. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 12:19, 20 February 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you! Jessicapierce (talk) 18:09, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

- Ah, thank you - and right back at you :) Melcous (talk) 23:45, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
You deleted my text in one article.
Hello
On 2 of February you deleted my text in "List of people by number of countries visited". Why? Utuzutuz (talk) 12:15, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
- Utuzutuz, as explained in my edit summaries, the text has been deleted because it requires a reliable, independent source, whereas the source you have used is user-generated content which is not acceptable. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 20:57, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
We consider that references to sources of TheBestTravelled.com (see the reference [7] "Best Travelled People - Best Travel Forum" in this article), MostTraveledPeople.com (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Veley) which we used, are very authoritative. These are the websites of clubs in which thousands of people consist. There are more than one hundred thousands of references to the websites of these clubs at the Internet. Unless it isn't confirmation of their authoritativeness? Utuzutuz (talk) 09:53, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
Edits
Hi Melcuous,
Thank you for your message. We are a book club and make edits to several articles about authors. We had made all edits to various articles without logging in. However, one of the articles was heavily targeted and then the Wikipedia community of editors decided that the targeting was wrong and decided on 'keep' for the article. We were advised to start editing from a logged in account for that article. Hence we did so. That is why you see only one article edited by us although we edit many because we were asked for logging in to make edits to that specific one on Sangeet paul choudary.
If you note our changes to the article, they are merely attempts to restore the information that had been removed by the targeting party. Please look at the TALK page of that article and you will note that the editors decided the targeting was wrong and asked us to restore the information. Apart from this, we have not made any subsequent edits. Note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sangeet_Paul_Choudary
We have no relationship with the author except that we read his books and his blog and follow his work, and hopefully that would mean no conflict of interest. Please let us know.
- Sgbookclub thank you for explaining who you are and yes, that does resolve the question of conflict of interest. However, wikipedia accounts are only allowed to be used by an individual person, not by a group. Each individual person who wants to edit wikipedia should create their own account, and this account should only be used by one person from now on. You should also read the guidelines on articles being written neutrally and not promotionally, and using reliable, independent, secondary sources to verify the content. Finally, when you leave a message on a talk page as you have done here, please "sign" your posts by including four tildes (~ this symbol) at the end. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 03:11, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
edits
Yes, the account is used by only one person and that has been the case earlier as well. Could you please advise if some sources are not reliable, secondary sources on the page and which ones those are? I will try to find alternate sources if some sources are questionable.

edits
Hello Melcuous, Yesterday I submitted an edit to update the image on Josh Waitzkin's page. I saw the change in the preview edit and then published. I have not gotten an any alert or response. Is there a time frame I should wait due to time differences to see if the edit was accepted/rejected before I ask? Thank you in advance for your help. Opala22 (talk) 10:59, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
- Opala22 the edit request you made yesterday was incorrectly placed on the article itself rather than on its talk page, which is why it was reverted. The edit request you have made today is in the correct place, however there are still some problems with it. 1. You have not formatted the request properly - the words edit request need to be surrounded by a double set of 'curly brackets' or braces, whereas you have one set of curly brackets and one set of parenthesis markers. This means the template will not work correctly. 2. You have not explained the edit you are suggesting. For example, you could write, "Please replace the current image with this image" and then insert a link to an image file. I'm not sure what image you are trying to link to either, as there is no link to a file uploaded to wikipedia, and the website you have in the footnote is not to a page that has a relevant image. Melcous (talk) 12:17, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Hi Melcous! You have recently reverted an edit by another user who changed the spelling of two words from BE to AE. However, the entire article uses AE spelling, those were the only two words in BE. While I believe that changes between BE and AE are arbitrary (articles about North American topics should be AE, British or European topics should be BE IMO), articles should be inherently consistent in their spelling. I have taken the opportunity to change the entire article to BE spelling following your initiative. Maybe you can cross-check I did not miss anything. Cheers. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 07:05, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
deletion
Melcous
apologies if my added link to the Brian Stableford external links was out with policy. However the link, whilst to a page I own, was not added to garner google hits as inferred in the deletion message but simply because I had interviewed Brian and was linking to that interview - having noticed several other links to interviews with him in the external links section. Again I apologise as I rarely edit Wikipedia and felt that the page linked to was in the same vein as other links accepted and that the interview might prove interesting to readers using the page.
regards

Hello Melcous. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Paola Andrea Muñoz Grandón, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Is a plausible, useful redirect or is not a redirect at all. Thank you. —Kusma (t·c) 16:54, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Hello Melcous. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Paola Andrea Munoz Grandon, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: plausible enough (no-diacritics version of full name), use WP:RFD to delete. Thank you. —Kusma (t·c) 16:56, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
As you wish, but 53.5% of the text is still by a paid editor, by far the majority of added text from any single contributor to the article. Regards. KJP1 (talk) 19:57, 11 March 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks KJP1 - but the current article is 68 words long and already tagged for notability and third-party sourcing issues, this just felt like overkill to me. Plus as far as I can see, the article was longer than that, including much of the same content, before the paid editor started working on it. I've been one of the first to tag Bbarmadillo's work for COI and promotional issues, but I do see his point that in this case (and some others) the penalties for being a paid editor who seeks to abide by the rules seem to give the message that it would be better to just pretend to be a non-COI editor like many others do :( Melcous (talk) 06:11, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

Chai Sirisute Changels
First, for the trivial. I corrected a spelling mistake on the word "traveling". You undid that.
Second, I am attempting to correct the historical record on a matter which emanated from my own pen. The links cited by wikipedia on Chai Sirisute were based upon journalism which I wrote and published in 1988 and revised in 1994, 1997 and again in 2002. Other citations mentioned on this page have either cited my work, or as is common on the Internet, just plagiarized it. This includes the links cited on the wikipedia page in question:
Sirisute,Surachai.(1987). Muay Thai Kickboxing, Unique Publications. ISBN 978-0-317-54356-8 Profile of Ajarn Chai Sirisute Archived September 20, 2010, at the Wayback Machine. Interview With Dan Inosanto Archived September 29, 2010, at the Wayback Machine.
I will republish the original articles shortly on thaiboxing.com and hopefully the matter can be put to rest.
The specific language I want removed has to do with Chai Sirisute teaching the Hell's Angels. I wrote that when I was barely 20 years old and my friend and teacher Chai Sirisute was in his early 30s. At the time I was trying to capture his mischievous sense of humor and found that anecdote laughable. I had little understanding of the brutal nature of gangs, and neither did Chai. He was a young man from a wealthy Thai family who had just arrived in this country and had no idea of who he was talking to or what crimes they were responsible for.
At this point, my perspective as well as that of Chai Sirisute, are much different. Ajarn Chai's health is failing due to repeated exposure to repetitive stress injuries associated with holding pads. He is thinking of his legacy and He does not want to be known for one naive mistake made in his youth. This language should be removed.

P.S.: Regarding your removal of links of notable students such as Greg Nelson, et al. I will update the language to include appropriate links.

From Opala22 03/15/18
Hi there Melcous,
I'm trying to navigate through editing a bio of someone I work with. You've responded to a few of my blunders as I familiarize myself with this process since I pose a COI.
Usually, after I've requested a change, I receive a message or alert if an editor flags something wrong. I try to read these notes carefully to correct my mistakes.
I tried to make an edit on Josh Waitzkin's page 2 days ago. It is recorded in my activity, and when i checked his page it said there were 2 editing requests in the queue. Today I went on and the notice doesn't exist, the edits haven't been accepted and I have no message explaining how I should correct my ways.
Can you let me know what happened here?
Thank you,

Pete Hawkes again
Hi Melcous,
I see that you helped to clean up some of the puffery at Pete Hawkes a while back. Well, he keeps on making throwaway usernames to edit the article, so I've reported him on COIN again. If you're interested, feel free to add a comment there. --Slashme (talk) 00:41, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
Your comments on deglobalization
Thanks! Your critical comments are highly appreciated. This page has for very very long carried the "This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (May 2007)". I would like to clarify what I have done and why. I have provided citations for verification and data (produced a graph) for verification that substantiated what was written by other people before. I cannot imagine that this is controversial. I have also updated the assessments of deglobalization. This is done on the basis of a recent issue of CJRES which containes only peer reviewed material. I am a contributor to that issue but I have not been involved in the design or editorial process anyhow. The fact that peer reviewed material is now available and that data have become available recently triggered my editing and updating. As you will see there are also references to opposing views. I will get rid of all citations that are unnecessary, in particular if this is to my own work (but I cannot help that I am one of the specialists) and keep updating this item in light of new literature. In my view that is good for wikipedia and your continued scrutiny will be appreciated — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peter a.g. van bergeijk (talk • contribs) 09:02, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

- Sure, and the fact that your sandbox and his contain identical promotional content about him is just purely a coincidence? Nope, not buying it. Melcous (talk) 11:27, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
Recent link to George Mylonas's webpage
I am sorry if I violated some rule by adding a reference to an essay that is all about archaeologist George Mylonas and his career in the U.S.A. and Greece. I am about to write a new one about him and as I checked the Wikipedia entry for him which has not been updated since 2006, I thought that it would be a good idea to add mine. I could add more articles or books that have been written about Mylonas in the past 10 years. (Nvogei (talk) 07:00, 24 March 2018 (UTC))
- Nvogei I am assuming you are referring to the edit made by the account Natalia Vogeikoff? If this was made by you there are two problems: 1. You should not be using multiple accounts to edit wikipedia and 2. You should not link to your own work. You may instead suggest the inclusion of the link on the talk page using the Template:Edit request. Thank you, Melcous (talk) 12:21, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
