As an non-profit organization writer, I would like to add more information to cyber bullying Wikipedia page. Endtocyberbullying (talk) 06:54, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) It seems that there might be a slight possibility of a potential conflict of interst here. I can't be certain, but his user name just doesn't seem right to me for what he wants to do. Sincerely, He's Gone Mental 10:33, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) I'm a little skeptic about this user as this user's only edit is this request. On a highly unrelated note, why is the Wikichecker not working properly?—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 20:57, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator comment)This user only has 1 edit as well. I'm skeptic and a little curious now that all three accounts are made in the same day and their only edits are to make a request to get confirmation.—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 20:59, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
WP:AGF ... the same thing happens a lot around here. People try to edit an article, create a userid, and ask for confirmed (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:05, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Duly noted. I should probably keep in mind that I did that myself too. But the consecutive create an account and request confirmation on the first edit in one day is a little concerning considering that the usernames could possible have a resemblance to each other.—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 21:34, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jdbrook1

I'm Wayne Grudem's (PhD, Cambridge)TA at Phoenix Seminary (where I'm also an M.Div. student). He's asked me to upload a profile/article picture to his wikipedia page. This is the reason I'm requesting confirmed status. This picture is a simple upper torso shot provide by Dr. Grudem for this purpose. Baring that, would there be any other means to get a profile/article picture uploaded? Thank you. Jdbrook1 (talk) 23:37, 22 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

User:Popovichh

I'd like to correct a typo in one article. Popovichh (talk) 20:33, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatively, some of the staff can do it for me if I can't be given that permission.

Article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa_Cakes

Section: Serbian Jaffa Cakes

Typo: A company from Crvenka, Serbia

Correction: A company from Serbia, Crvenka, (alt.) Crvenka, a company from Serbia,

Explanation: Crvenka is not a country, Serbia is.

I want to clean up some extremely sloppy writing in the Stop Online Piracy Act article. Cooleo100d (talk) 21:20, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure someone would, but honestly, I can't take the time to discuss each improvement to such a long article. All I know is the level of writing in this incredibly relevant and important article is severely lacking. For example, one sentence reads, "A day later after enormous internet protests calling to move all domains away from the web registrar Godaddy announced they no longer support SOPA" Stop Online Piracy Act (this version). I can't see much of a reason why I should have to tell someone else to correct a sentence, that as is, makes absolutely no sense. The article has similar writing throughout.
Yes, it's a high-visibility article right now, being heavily edited, and that's one of the reason's it's semi-protected (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 21:46, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Understood, but I wasn't looking to edit it for any content. I merely wanted to fix sentences like the one I pointed out above. Surprisingly, that error has been there for hours, so in some ways I guess it's not being edited enough. Either way, hopefully someone will take the necessary time to clean it up soon, because as is, it's a very poor representation of Wikipedia article quality on a current issue.
