Names

Funny thing. I came on here under an invented pseudonym because I too share a name with someone famous (or possibly infamous - in certain quarters...). What do I find? Someone using that name as a pseudonym. Gets me confused when we edit close together on something. I prefer to live in compartments on the net (and elsewhere...), and don't let them know who's who even. Only one other user here knows who I really am, and I intend to keep it that way - if only to avoid any suspicions of advertising. Peridon (talk) 22:47, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I guess you are a bit wrong about my name, as my real name is Michael Nicholas Jackson. I can only blame my parents, or perhaps my great-grandparents, who gave my grandparents those names...

I have experienced that people ask if i'm kidding, or i'm using a pseudonym, but I actually find it quite amusing :P MichaelJackson231 (talk) 07:19, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

May I suggest adding User:UBX/ubx-5? — Arthur Rubin (talk) 09:04, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that's quite a good idea :D MichaelJackson231 (talk) 09:08, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

You seem to like food alot. (Goatcheese384 (talk) 10:41, 6 August 2010 (UTC)).[reply]

Yes, I do. Thank you. (I though prefer real, serious questions..) MichaelJackson231 (talk) 10:59, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's "Serious" not sereious.lol (Goatcheese never goes bad (talk) 11:04, 6 August 2010 (UTC)).[reply]

Ever heard about a typo? MichaelJackson231 (talk) 11:05, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ross Worner

Yes, but he has not actually made an appearance in the Championship yet. Thus failing the guidelines as noted. --Jimbo^[online] 11:28, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, but we have lots of articles on nonleague players... Apart from that, I think he will get some appearances in the League one this season, as he looks set to be the reserve goalie. And all Charlton players have an article. MichaelJackson231 (talk) 12:39, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. He might play, but at the moment that is not definate. The articles on other non-League players should pass WP:ATHLETE or WP:GNG, if not nominate them for deletion. --Jimbo^[online] 13:35, 8 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kristof Goddaert

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Kristof Goddaert. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:10, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:N requires significant coverage by third party sources, not just trivial entries or coverage on the teams website. --Active Banana | bananaphone 14:08, 16 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But this BLP is referenced by Cyclingnews, the world's leading cycling webpage. His team's homepage and his Cyclingnews profile confirms that he is a member of the team. It seems nothing can make you happy, even if I list up 100 references, you probably wouldn't be happy. I get an impression that you are one of those who should have everything perfect. If you so badly want that BLP to be 100% perfect, improve it yourself! And from what I see of your contribs, almost all of your edits are adding unreferenced BLP tags to referenced BLPs?? MichaelJackson231 (talk) 09:04, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[1] is NOT significant coverage. ~ Active Banana ( bananaphone 12:47, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is appearant that you have no insight in cycling at all, as cyclingnews is the world's leading cycling webpage. And do you really mean that footnotes are needed for a single-sentence BLP? MichaelJackson231 (talk) 17:34, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPA Do not attack other editors. And yes, footnotes are required for articles about living people WP:BLP, even one sentence articles that have not yet been shown to meet the requirements of significant coverage in reliable third party sources.

Your request for rollback

Hi MikeNicho231. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
Rollback should never be used to edit war.
If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY ^(TALK) 07:49, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

August 2010

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Anne Curtis. 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 several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. -FASTILY ^(TALK) 17:57, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I gave you rollback so you could revert vandalism, not edit war. Regardless of whether you used rollback in the dispute or not, continued edit warring will result in removal of your rollback rights. When handing out rollback privileges, I purposely maintain higher standards than many other administrators; I would expect better conduct from you. -FASTILY ^(TALK) 18:00, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for this edit war is appearantly conflict of interest. I mean there are enough reliable references. Some of those may be considered gossip, but most of the others are reliable. MichaelJackson231 (talk) 18:11, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your note

Sorry for the late response to your posting. Regarding your message, it seems you already have rollback now. I have only been logging in recently, and was unable to answer your request at that time. Thanks. Acalamari (from Bellatrix Kerrigan) 11:25, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

protected images

Regarding File:Taric Alani Cum shot.jpg, the image is protected and it can only be used in certain pages (the pages are listed in the information page of the image). You added it to the article, but it was not visible at all, so I removed it. --Enric Naval (talk) 20:39, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

STOP re-posting an inaccurate and LIBELOUS article about me.

If you would like me to somehow confirm that I am the subject of the article that you keep reverting, I am more than happy to do so. The article that was up was FALSE and LIBELOUS and all I have done is replace it with accurate information that is completely supported by my links. I don't know why you are so passionate about the article that was up originally but I have REPEATEDLY noted that it is false and misleading and misattributed. PLEASE STOP messing with my edits. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with them until someone actually disputes the information which NO ONE HAS and NO ONE WILL. Thank you. 99.17.29.147 (talk) 16:32, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, please stop using CAPS, and second, please verify that YOU ARE the subject of the article. And I am higly in doubt that you are the person you are claiming to be, I would expect a recognised film director to be able to articulate himself in a proper way. And, I would suggest that you would take a look at WP:MOS, to see how you should edit Wikipedia in a proper way. MikeNicho231 (talk) 16:33, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How would you like me to prove it to you? I used caps because understandably I am a little irritated about this bizarre crusade to restore a sloppy, misleading and misattributed article about me when the revisions I have done are completely supported and accurate. I can't begin to figure out the motive behind it. And I did the edits using the Wikipedia instructions.99.17.29.147 (talk) 16:45, 30 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
