Adding category to Lou Reed

Hello,

do you have a reliable reference proofing his sexuality? If not, you should not insert any fringe categories unless cited. Regards.--Tomcat (7) 09:37, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

LGBT Scientists

It looks like you've added quite a few names to the LGBT Scientists category -- thank you! I'm part of a group that's planning a mass edit-a-thon this spring (likely in April) to add or expand many queer scientists' pages. Any chance you'd be interested in helping out?

Is Rebecca Hall black?

Why did you add a black actress category to Rebecca Hall? Is she actually—or once was—black? —EncMstr (talk) 19:25, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Rebecca Hall is Black. She's of African-American descent, so she qualifies as a Black British actress. —And we drown 19:28, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Agnostic

Since the article about Serge Gainsbourg doesn't support your recent addition of Category:Jewish agnostics, I have reverted it. Debresser (talk) 07:49, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Halle Berry is not from Los Angeles

So I reverted your change adding her to "Actresses from Los Angeles, California" Famartin (talk) 16:46, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tomio Aoki, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Not Forgotten (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

LGBT category/violations of WP:BLPCAT again

And we drown, you really need to stop doing stuff like this. You've been told this various times, including once by me before with regard to Janice Dickinson. WP:BLPCAT is policy. You need to follow it. If I continue to see you disregard this policy, then I will feel the need to bring this matter to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Flyer22 (talk) 03:20, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sigh. Okay, per your response here, I will take this to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. See you there. Flyer22 (talk) 03:32, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reported here. You are allowed to weigh in there to give your side of things; that's why, above, I stated, "See you there." Flyer22 (talk) 04:06, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did the warning in the WP:ANI thread above not stick? In what way is being an ex-Roman Catholic relevant to Anne Hathaway's notability? Nymf talk to me 17:33, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since you are still adamant about it, how exactly is it relevant to her notability? Nymf talk to me 06:14, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It was notable enough to have this much of her article devoted to it: "Hathaway was raised Roman Catholic with what she considered "really strong values", and has stated she wanted to be a nun during her childhood. However, she decided against it at the age of 15, after learning her brother Michael was gay. She has stated: "I realised my older brother was gay, and I couldn't support a religion that didn't support my brother. Now I call myself a nondenominational Christian, because I haven't found the religion for me." In 2009, Hathaway stated that her religious beliefs are "a work in progress"." —And we drown 06:22, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Carrie Underwood

You have added incorrect ethnicity categories to the article Carrie Underwood, a BLP. Please see the talk page where she explicitly denies being either Native American or of Scottish ethnicity. Please take care that this material is not restored. Thank you. Carrite (talk) 02:35, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A slow edit war is still an edit war. Per WP:BRD please engage on the talk page or you risk being reported for edit warring ----Snowded TALK 11:23, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Ayn Rand, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 11:38, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

April 2013

This is your last warning. The next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Tyler Perry, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Drmies (talk) 14:51, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Your talk page history clearly documents that you edit and add categories to BLPs not in accordance with our policy. I'm going to go through your recent edits to see where else you have added inappropriate categories--if it were up to me, HotCat were a right whose use I could revoke, since you appear to have little clue about how to use it properly.

    In particular, the category "Rape victims" is under discussion right now; a major argument for deletion is that it allows for BLP violations such as the one you just made. I have to defend the existence of that category, and foolish actions like yours make that very difficult for me.

    In short, be very, very careful with adding categories in the first place, and with adding categories to BLPs in general, esp. in regards to sexuality, sexual orientation, political and religious affiliation, and ethnicity. The previous warnings and comments here are so plentiful and so serious that a block is the appropriate result of any next infraction. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 14:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please tell me this is an April Fool's joke! It says in Tyler Perry's article that "he was moved to relate for the first time accounts of being molested by a friend's mother at age 10; he was also molested by three men previous to this, and later found out his own father had molested his friend". How is that not rape? How is he not a rape victim? What did I do? How is this at all similar to before? How is him being molested four times make him not a rape victim? -User:And we drown 12:30, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Besides all the other problems, molestation is not the same as rape. This is no April Fools joke. Drmies (talk) 23:38, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Please explain to me what esoteric planet you live on where molestation is somehow not rape, and is therefore somehow consensual. Secondly, why are you not assuming good faith and then wasting your time by picking on me by going back through my edits and deleting my contributions without any kind of fairness, consistency, or reason? If, for example it is unverified that Cesar Chavez was Catholic, why just pick on me and remove the category "American Roman Catholics" and yet leave the parts in his article where it says he is Roman Catholic? As another example, why delete Socialist Feminists from Patrick Stewart? If Socialist + Feminist doesn't equal Socialist Feminist, then what esoteric definition, pray tell, does? And how does it apply to say Hayao Miyazaki or Gloria Steinem, but not to Patrick Stewart? As for Sexual Personae, all of the categories I added apply to it, so why remove any of them, let alone all of them? The book is both feminist and critical of contemporary feminism, etc. There seems to be a whole lot of inconsistency in how you're applying things, and it seems very personal and derailing, and I'm sick of it.
