As there have been some messages about the page not being constructed neutral enough I would like to ask for help. The person this page is about had not a minor impact with his non commercial, but inspirational concept projects (under the concept brand VISIONS), further he contributed to the open source project OSMAND Android Navigation App with his UI creations (http://www.osmand.net/en/blog/76-osmand-100-released.html),(http://stefanradev.com/osmand-gps-app.html). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OsmAnd

All references that were included are of different and reliable sources (web & print media).

Please offer a suggestion of an appropriate edit about the article in order to be compliant.

Thank you in advance.

As the boxes at the top say: This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. You need to provide citations for each of the claims in the article. See WP:CITE. This article contains wording that promotes the subject in a subjective manner without imparting real information. The language is too promotional, not appropriate for an encyclopedic bio. This goes hand in hand with the lack of citations, since it seems you are providing the praise, not your sources. This article's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. - same thing. See WP:MOSBIO at least. Finally, if you have a conflict of interest then you need to be extra careful how you edit the article - that's why we discourage people from writing about topics they are associated with. It's difficult to maintain a neutral point of view. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 19:59, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Ping Fu (again)

Hi FreeRangeFrog, it's been a little while since you helped me on the Ping Fu article and I was wondering if you'd be able to lend a hand there again? Back at the end of May, I proposed a more detailed introduction and updated version of the article's infobox for editors on Ping's page to take a look at (see request here). One editor was happy with what I'd suggested and the only critical comment was from an editor questioning her job title at her new company, which I've since been able to provide a very clear source for. Although no-one has objected and I think the updates would be an improvement, I've not had any luck from asking if anyone there would make the changes in the article. Would you mind taking a quick look and moving the drafted updates live if you're happy to do so? Totally understand if you're busy on other things, let me know if you think there's someone else who could help. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 22:45, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

@16912 Rhiannon: I'll be happy to help, I'll take a look on Monday and we'll get it squared away, no problem. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 17:31, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

@16912 Rhiannon:  Done I closed your edit request on the article talk page as well. One thing - your infobox markup did not include the photograph, so I added it with the photograph. I assume that was an oversight, let me know if not. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:08, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks heaps! And yep, I just hadn't included the image since it wasn't available when I first made my request (the original photo had been taken down off Commons and I don't think this had been added yet), so thanks for adding that. 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 21:25, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Break

Dear FreeRangeFrog, Thank you for removing the biased part from the article about Volodymyr Viatrovych. Several people have tried to remove the Critique section as it contains blatant disinformation and full of Polish chauvinism. I have complained to Wikipedia about the author GlaubePL. Wikipedia support have replied that they will open up a discussion on the topic on the Bio poster board (or smth like that). I believe contributing authors may participate. I encourage you to take part in the discussion. Thank you again. Petro Mohyla — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.9.1.100 (talk) 14:23, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Dear FreeRangeFrog, Thank you very much for your valuable contribution to the BLP noticeboard discussion on the V.Viatrovych article. As you can see from the discussion GlaubePL has no intention whatsoever to adhere to Wikipedia standards and rules to be neutral and impartial. He is probably not aware there is more life outside the Polish borders... Anyways, thank you again. Sincerely, Petro Mohyla — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.9.1.100 (talk) 14:24, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Please keep in mind that I'm not taking "your" side in this, whatever that might be. I am concerned with the way the article presents information about a living person, that's all. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 00:26, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi, what do you think about a new version of Critique section in my sandbox [1]? If you think it needs some linguistic corrections feel free to do it. GlaubePL (talk) 13:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

@GlaubePL: Honestly that's not much better. But I'll post to the NPOV board tomorrow so you can get a second opinion. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:34, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Ewa Siemaszko, Władysław Siemaszko

FreeRangeFrog, I noticed that you take care about keeping standards of BLP. So please explain me why English Wikipedia tolerates biased cricicism secion about Ewa and Władysław Siemaszko? There are only negative opinions quoted (positive have been silenced), some of them from doubious sources like Yaroslav Tsaruk (who is mentioned as "historian" but he is not historian at all, but the etnographer; in the citations I did in the talk page of Volodymyr Viatrovych, you can find very negative opinion on Tsaruk by professor Partacz). GlaubePL (talk) 20:33, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Please see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. If you feel those articles have the same type of problems, you are free to take the same steps I took with yours. Any editor is free to do so. You seem to be emotionally invested in this topic - all the more reason to stay away from it, because it's very difficult to maintain a neutral point of view. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 00:23, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

FreeRangeFrog, Noone can be neutral to the mass killings and its denialism. Anyway, I will try to redact 'Criticism' section on V.Viatrovych according to your remarks (however I still don't understand some of them). GlaubePL (talk) 07:25, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

There is no "my side". I was appalled that GlaubePL used Wikipedia as a public forum for his petty Polish chauvinism which goes against Wikipedia fundamentals. It is even more valuable that you personally probably don't have a slightest idea what Glaube's emotions are all about. I thanked you not for taking "my side", but for being true to Wikipedia policy. Great job, I am really impressed! Petro Mohyla — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.150.223.78 (talk) 02:16, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

@JohnCD: Thank you for the heads up! Like I mentioned in the talk page, Dstrob had created this in their userpage and asked for help to "change the title", so I assisted in creating the article, reminded him of his COI, clarified the article could not be an advertisement for his book, etc. I figured it was a worthy historical topic, but never really looked into it much. If the entire notability is based on iffy evidence provided by the author's own work then it should definitely be deleted. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 18:36, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Nomination of Engelbertha Stroebele for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Engelbertha Stroebele is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted. I have included in this nomination the related article John Joseph Stroebele.

The articles will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Engelbertha Stroebele until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the articles during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notices from the top of the articles.

(A German user made the main nomination, but did not inform people: I have bundled in the related article about ENgelbertha's husband, which evidently stands or falls with hers). Regards, JohnCD (talk) 17:42, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

Regarding Yelena Mizulina page

Hi I am a newbie and am perhaps a bit confused. You mention that the refs are in Russian and that this is somehow bad- indeed I cannot find much information on the Internet concerning this person in English. In light of the recent controversy, I feel that it may be important to for people to be aware of the fact that there are more politicians in Russia than its president. As I pointed out in the article Mrs. Mizulina is a VERY controversial public figure and I felt that it was important for people outside of the Russian-speaking world to be aware pf the different personalities involved in the debate surronding several of the controversies that she has been involved in, of which I have mentioned the main ones. Please indicate what you find excessive. The infromation I mention has made headlines in Russia.

Lori Alan started talking as soon as she fell out of the womb, and hasn't stopped since. A native of the Washington, DC area, her passion for entertaining led the five-year-old actress to make her television debut as the star of a Shakey's Pizza commercial. She went on to graduate with honors from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts and set off cutting her teeth on the comedy circuit, as a longtime member of New York's Gotham City Improv (Groundlings East).

Lori is perhaps best known for her voice-over work. She starred as Diane Simmons on Family Guy, Pearl the Whale on SpongeBob: Squarepants, and Sue Richards, The Invisible Woman, on Marvel Comics' The Fantastic Four, among many other fantastic animated roles (Monster's University, Toy Story 3, Despicable Me 2, WALL•E, Henry Hugglemonster, Metal Gear Solid, Cow and Chicken, Animaniacs, and Futurama) and a long, successful commercial career.

Lori has firm roots in theatre, where she's thrived for over three decades. She most recently mounted a smash solo show, Lori Alan: The Musical, and appeared alongside Paul Reubens in The Pee-Wee Herman Show. Of her role as Queen Celia in the hit musical Sneaux!, Backstage West proclaimed, "Lori Alan might give Carol Burnett pause!" She originated the role of Mae in the award-winning musical ReeferMadness, a performance that earned raves from Kenny Morse of CBS Radio, who called her "a standout whose talent will take her very far". Luckily, that talent brought Lori right to the small screen.

From roles on the gripping Showtime drama Ray Donovan, to the hilarious Comedy Central gem Workaholics, to the deliciously naughty Desperate Housewives, Lori's energy and natural essence flow effortlessly from genre to genre. A true character actress in every sense of the word, when Lori speaks, the world listens. She delves deeply into her material, emerging with the power to make the audience laugh and cry in the same moment. Her television career has flourished with appearances on Bones, Southland, CSI, 90210, Law and Order (both LA and the original), and every other show imaginable.

Lori lives in Los Angeles with the love of her life (whom she met on the plane!) and as many rescue dogs as she can fit in their yard. Her hobbies include singing in the shower, discovering new gluten-free cookies, and trying to switch to decaf. Despite having no kids, she is a MILF. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.148.254.86 (talk) 02:41, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi - I'm not sure which article you're referring to, is it Lori Alan? And you want all this pasted in there? We need reliable sources for that. Can you provide them? Also, the image would have to be emailed to the photo submissions team as detailed here. I'll be happy to help you but we can't just add unsourced stuff to a biography, that's not the way it works.

Please Try to Understand

FreeRangeFrog, I am not frustrated in any manner because the fact is fact. The block on me from adding content was lifted and I have reverted Deepa’s(my wife) marital status in the Article. The fact is that from the beginning, when I created the article, the marital status was there for three years. Now you started to edit the article even after giving you enough links to prove marital status. Still you revert the article by hiding the fact Deepa is married to me, I think you have some personal interest in this matter. This will affect the credibility of encyclopedia. Most of the people depending on the information provided by Wikipedia and trust it. By the action your kind of editors, without knowing the fact directly, will lead to misunderstandings. So, kindly try to be self controlled while editing the Wikipedia encyclopedia. Please do not allow to reflect your emotional jousters on hard core information. If you can’t understand the language in links (for citation), you can ask for a marriage certificate which is in English. I can provide it through a personal email. My mail Id is anto.pandeth@gmail.com, or you can contact me on my phone. Please feel free to send your email to me if you want to see the marriage certificate. I hope this statement will help me.

Fort Augustus Abbey comment

Hi. You removed an edit of mine from the Fort Augustus Abbey because it was unsourced. Wasn't it clear that my edit was itself addressing the *lack* of sufficient sourcing for the rest of that section? The section contains the statement "The allegations included ... sexual abuse". My intent was not to say that that statement was false, but rather that it wasn't sufficiently sourced to be included. By asking me four a source, you are effectively looking for me to provide a *negative* source -- i.e. a source that shows the other statement was unsourced! Or, put another more convoluted way, can *you* provide a source to show that my statement -- itself intended to balance an insufficiently sourced statement -- is itself insufficiently sourced? I won't challenge this any further, and I won't myself re-insert my edit. However, if the above: a. makes sense, and b. is convincing, you could perhaps reverting your revert?

If you feel that the information there is incorrect, or incorrectly phrased, then you (and anyone else) are free to fix it - without changing the meaning and purpose of the paragraph. What we cannot have is commentary on sourced information. Sourced counterpoints are fine. I don't doubt what you said is correct, but we need verifiability, not opinion or analysis. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:52, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for helping out there. I'll back away from the article so we avoid edit conflicts. You are removing things I already removed days ago and were put back in. We will need to monitor this article and deal with some aggressive IP's in order to keep it cleaned up. We'll see how it goes I guess.

@Keithbob: I'm sure the IP(s) will revert, etc. Let's keep an eye out, if it gets beyond 3RR we can justify protection. Right now though a BLP vio protection would be a hard sell since there's nothing incredibly inappropriate or insulting, etc. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 00:49, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

Moved to Talk:Raul Julia-Levy Good afternoon- I thank you for your edits however stop editing information that is correct. You are posting things about Raul Julia-Levy which are false and slanderous. If infact you continue to post these things action will be taken thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chuy33 (talk • contribs) 22:30, 1 October 2013 (UTC) @Chuy33: Let me be clear - if you threaten me or anyone else again, I will ask for your account to be blocked and the article protected, at which point you will be unable to edit it at all. Your wording about the "biological offspring" on the article is in contradiction with the available sources, and Wikipedia must strive to be neutral and present all sides of a topic whenever possible. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 17:09, 2 October 2013 (UTC) Chuy33 seems to mainly a SPA that is interested in deleting information from "celebrity" bios. Liz Read! Talk! 21:42, 3 October 2013 (UTC) @Liz: Yes, and I just reported the threat above to WP:ANI. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 21:47, 3 October 2013 (UTC) I'm not sure why I took it on but I found an account (Otooledupree) from 2007 who did most of the edits to Raul Julia-Levy's page and he/she went to Help, declared him/herself Levy's publicist, and asked that the article only be edited by his representatives. So, that's where much of the early content came from. There have been a couple other accounts (including IPs) who focused on editing that article, but not exclusively. Liz Read! Talk! 00:07, 4 October 2013 (UTC) @Liz: I too noticed the Wikipedia:Help desk post from Otooledupree that he signed "L.H. Vaughnes". The Raul Julia-Levy bio on IIMDb was created by one L.H. Vaughnes. Otooledupree (who also edited from IP 70.187.146.15 signing his posts Otooledupree when asking for full page protection, Diff of Wikipedia:Requests for page protection) uploaded numerous images, created Flauntmypet (a RJL project), and created a back story like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abraham Levy the alleged maternal grandfather (maybe identical to the bio here), and he added some unsourced fluff to Aerolíneas Internacionales, that I have now removed. For what it's worth, RJL's "deep commitment to the issues of animal welfare ... was motivated by the sudden death of his beloved Scottish Terrier, O'Toole". Best, Sam Sailor Sing 12:46, 8 October 2013 (UTC) Wow, Sam Sailor , you couldn't make this stuff up if you tried. Luckily, you and §FreeRangeFrog trimmed back the most egregious puffery (WP:Peacock). I think the biggest question is whether to remove his claim of being Raul Julia's son. As far as I can see, there is only his claim and no public acknowledgement from Julia's family...in fact, his widow sued him for this claim (for which, there is apparently documentation). It would be a huge hit to his biography but without verification, it shouldn't be asserted as fact in Wikipedia. Liz Read! Talk! 13:09, 8 October 2013 (UTC) P.S. Should this conversation be copied to Levy's Talk Page? L. I support to move this discussion to RLJ's talk page using {{Moved discussion to}}, but since we are on Frog's talk page I believe the move should be left to him. (Btw having more than one section with the name "Break" gives a minor problem.) Best, Sam Sailor Sing 14:21, 8 October 2013 (UTC) One last thing, Sam Sailor, I don't know if you stumbled on to RJL's Live Journal Page but, man, if this is the same person, it's amazing that such a bogus biography lasted as long on WP as it did. The unedited claims on that page ("known as the Howard Hughes of Mexico") are so patently false, it's like really bad fiction. Liz Read! Talk! 16:53, 8 October 2013 (UTC) Oh the lulz... Anyway, if you guys want to move this to the talk page, that's fine. Probably better there anyway. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 17:09, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

question about boxing articles

I've tried adding a boxing article but it seems like there's little to no impetus for boxing fans to help write wikipedia boxing articles, especially for 2nd-tier and 3rd-tier boxers. Not only that, but boxing articles seem to be written (and dominated by) boxing enthusiasts who are pressing for a particular point to be made or advocated. In your opinion (of someone with no particular enthusiasm for boxing) are boxers inherently notable the same way as, let's say, baseball players? (every single 2013 MLB player has a wikipedia page) Any boxer who has made a name for himself is notable imho. It is extraordinarily difficult to train, grow, and develop a fighter's skills due to the vagueness & complexity of the sport; yet, boxers who have a non-meteoric career seem to inherently have no belonging here on Wikipedia. Boxing fans don't care about putting in "mediocre" boxers (who are stellarly gifted and extraordinarily athletic in their own right) because the way boxing is presented to the public is highly correlated to the way the general populace presents boxing to the readers of Wikipedia. Until boxing fans realize they are being sold a "product" based on coverage bias, they will fail to give more than passing mention to 2nd and 3rd-tier boxers, sadly. Lemonsdrops (talk) 20:48, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

@Lemonsdrops: That people are not interested in creating articles about a certain topic doesn't mean the topics are not appropriate, it just means they have to be created. As long as they pass the notability guidelines you should be OK, even a few stubs wouldn't hurt. There's also a project with folks that might help. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 03:46, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

Just curious, is it frowned upon to make 10-20 stub articles and leave them after just 2-5 sentences? I feel bad because it feels like i'm gaming the system if I just toss a few bones to assert their notability and nothing thereafter. For the same effort I could create one well written article than 10-20 stubs but I'm soured by that which is beyond my low investment hurdle of minimal effort. Should I create a couple more measly stub articles and go from there? Or should I seek feedback first on the wikiproject rather than asking an admin? Wikipedia has a daunting amount of "help articles" which seemed geared for serious editors rather than casual, small-scale editors like myself. Sad and confused :-( Lemonsdrops (talk) 10:23, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

No, it's not frowned upon at all. And stubs are better than having nothing :) Definitely check with the project folks, especially from a notability perspective. Wouldn't make much sense to create material that will end up being challenged and deleted because they feel to meet the inclusion guidelines. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 18:01, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

The link has Stevenson's contact information and lists her name within the information box. So it is in fact a reliable source (and yes I am aware of the WP). WillieLimpD (talk) 01:31, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

YouTube is not a reliable source. Find one, and then use it to put that in. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 03:44, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

The WP lists that if the link fits the criteria, then it's reliable. The uploader of the content is a music video company that produced and released the video. Furthermore, it lists Stevenson's contact information and even has her in the video. Therefore, it is a reliable citation.WillieLimpD (talk) 12:31, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

@Illovecoffee: I don't mark unsourced information with {{cn}}, I remove it. That's what WP:BLP is for.

Andy Vollmer

I've restored most of the material you deleted from Andy Vollmer because you seem to have some basic misunderstanding of what WP:OR is and when WP:PRIMARY sources are appropriate and when they are not. In this case, quoting directly from the WP:PRIMARY source when the citation is that someone said something is highly reliable. Interpretations of the primary source require secondary sources as do personal details. You deleted a direct quote from the transcript, not any interpretation of it.

However, I have provided additional secondary sources because that paragraph does do some interpretation (which you left!).

Toddst1 (talk) 02:48, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

No, a transcript is by definition a primary source, and extracting a negative quote from there is POV at best, OR on a good day. In that same transcript there's a claim by another one of the SEC employees basically telling the congressmen that they were responsible for the problem, since it was Congress who enacted the deregulation that allegedly ended up creating the situation where Maddoff could get away with what he did. And that seems to me a perfectly valid point, no less valid than some congressman's (who for all I know is trying to look good to his constituents) claim that the SEC and its employees are worthless. But now we're into interpretation of the source, right? Which is inappropriate to begin with. Anyway, I removed the quote, since it represents undue weight to me. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 18:45, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

John Stephenson (actor)

Hi, below is a copy of a message sent to Wikipedia's help desk. I'm not going to make any other edits to the article and I understand now about not using the sources given but how can you or anyone else for that matter dispute the SSDI? Also, I suggest that you don't talk to me like a dog anymore or I'll report you to the same people. You could very easily have made your point without the threats. Also, who are you to be deleting info that I've provided which has been verified to be fact? I've been doing this for a few years now and was doing obituary research long before anyone ever heard of Wikipedia.

Here's the message I sent. Like I said, I won't make anymore edits in regards to his presumed death but it's only out of respect for the family in the minute chance he may still be living and certainly not because of you.

No, I wasn't. There's a point where I have to be frustrated when someone decides to violate an important part of one of Wikipedia's most important policies because they think they are "right". I'd recommend you volunteer for OTRS so you can reply to distraught people who are looking at Google search results and Wikipedia articles saying their loved ones are deceased, and then tell me to be nice. We are stewards of people's information and we have to follow the policies that have been built to manage that information responsibly.

Andrew Gilligan

I wanted to raise a concern beyond the allegation issue (which I will leave for the BLP noticeboard). There appears to have been regular attempts over the years to try and remove or rewrite anything that doesn't portray Gilligan in positive terms; some users seem to exist solely for this purpose, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Craig142 - compared to a few years ago, the entry has significantly reduced in a manner that may seem suspicious. Relevant content has been removed and is not even referenced. As I have been a regular editor for that entry, my perspective may be subjective; perhaps you could offer a fresh viewpoint? UsamahWard (talk) 09:26, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

@UsamahWard: yeah, that looks like a lot of suspicious SPA edits. But even SPAs with a conflict of interest sometimes have a point - the trick is to prevent them from removing valid information while making sure we don't create unbalanced POV-y messes out of bios. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 18:46, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Taking your last point, perhaps the fact that he worked as an intern for Keith Vaz should remain in the article, omitting the allegation he forged references. UsamahWard (talk) 20:08, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Per your point in the article's talk page, I see no problem with that. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:03, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

Further changes by an unnamed editor leave the impression of an effort to 'sanitize' the entry. I have used the entry's talk page for discussion about specific changes. Perhaps you could keep an eye, as I may be becoming oversensitive to the many changes. UsamahWard (talk) 13:51, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, that's definitely trying to remove valid information - the incident is perfectly well sourced and obviously notable given coverage. I'm watching it as well, so no worries. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 14:05, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

I'm just about worn out on this, life's too short! Despite your clear comment on the talk page, the 'Sockpuppeting' was removed again; 'John' and the anonymous editor between them have appeared out of nowhere and really gone to town on Gilligan's entry. 'John' has posted twice on my own talk page in the last couple of days to warn me not to edit the entry. I was interested to find, whilst fruitlessly looking for mainstream sources about the Sockpuppeting allegations, a report of a much earlier attempt on Gilligan's entry: http://www.boriswatch.co.uk/2009/02/02/wikipedia-wars-now-thats-funny/. The mention of an apparent SPA 'Sandler151' is shockingly similar to the aforementioned Craig142. I'm going to try and take a day away from all this! UsamahWard (talk) 17:51, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Just realised, that external link I gave relates to an archived discussion on the Talk page for Gilligan's entry - sorry, it's been a long day, I'm slowing down! Anyway, it's clear this matter was debated at great length before, then retained. In the light of that, I think its removal is even more questionable, as no new reasoning has been brought to the discussion. UsamahWard (talk) 18:17, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Ah, my apologies. Actually my intention was to convey the meaning of {{Uw-delete3}} but that's a bit harsh and would also be inappropriate at this point. But you get the point, right? You're removing properly sourced information, seemingly because you don't like it, against consensus to retain. In any case, it's your talk page, if you wish to remove that you're free to do so, or if you want me to do it, I will. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 14:51, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Nope, I removed weakly sourced negative information from a BLP, in line with policy - which says we're supposed to now discuss it before it is reinstated. Very far from 'disruptive editing'. If I'd reverted again then maybe there would be a case for that, but I haven't.

I hope you might investigate it a bit further. At first glance, it might seem like something worthy of inclusion with those newsworthy-sounding sites but, they're not news articles, they're blogs - and they're the blogs of people who have frequently expressed a great disliking for the person in question. The newspapers themselves have not covered this quite frivolous accusation. It's a blog saying another blog says that in a blog, he used a pseudonym - it's all very tenuous - just repeating some claims made on anti-G blogging sites; if there was any chance of proving he'd done it, I'm sure newspapers would have carried the story - that they have not is quite telling. 88.104.19.237 (talk) 15:15, 16 October 2013 (UTC)

Kristine W

Greetings,

I have been a close personal friend of Kristine Weitz for many years and I can vouch that her birth date is definitely June 3rd,1963. I have traveled with her abroad and have seen her passport. Also you might want to consider logically, if she won the pageant in 1981 (as stated and shown in the photo link) then she would have to have been at least 18 years old of age in 1981.

I find no reason as to why you are constantly removing accurate information. I'd be happy to provide proof, however just about every site that refers to a census costs money.

If you can be kind enough to point me to the right direction for finding a free site that includes census and/or birth records I would be happy to include some kind of linked proof.

Cheers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.17.96.222 (talk) 23:05, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

The standard modus operandi for biographies when a secondary source cannot be procured that can support personal details such as a date of birth is to exclude that completely from the article. That includes what we call "primary sources", of which census information would be a good example. You can read the policy here. And while I don't doubt your sincerity, we also don't allow personal recollections or knowledge, because information must be verifiable. That's why we don't have a DOB in that article, and many more in Wikipedia. If you produce a reliable source that provides the date then we would have no problem whatsoever with including it. Until then however, the DOB needs to be omitted. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 00:22, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Dear FreeRangeFrog kindly let it understand more why suddenly this article needs more citations and "potentially libelous" since it was recreated by you on 24 May 2013 and clearly states in the notes the situation of the "reliable sources".

Thanks. UNMD (talk) 02:54, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I added the tag because there is a lot of content there that is not supported by citations. Please see WP:CITE. The "potentially libelous" part is not necessarily the case, it's just the wording on the tag. Just make sure that all the material there is correctly cited. Remember that anyone is free to challenge and remove any unsourced material from any article, and that's especially true for biographies. Better to add sources than to have someone simply remove the text. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 03:53, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi Again. Sorry to bother you, but because of your advanced experience, could you kindly point out parts of the article to be supported by citations as I went through the article, but I can't identify them as although the few same sources, the citations are all pointed from that same sources because of poor availability? I do really appreciate if you could kindly advice. Thanks again. UNMD (talk) 19:27, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

The last part of the third paragraph in the intro lacks a supporting citation, which is required when claiming someone is "controversial". Almost the entire "Early life" section lacks citations, A note like Early life off-line information are gathered from relatives, friends, journalists and some municipal corporation offices and other private and public sources. is not acceptable as a reference, you're essentially just accepting you don't have sources for the material, in which case I'd just as soon remove the entire section. See WP:V. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 20:53, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Thank you FreeRangeFrog, this is professionalism and neutrality: suggesting things and not disputing or arguing for it. Your advices and guides are great. However, just browsing on the net I fund this link from an italian newspaper which confirms a certain past of the personality by the major of the town and the newspaper "La Citta" (http://lacittadisalerno.gelocal.it/cronaca/2013/10/29/news/s-severino-toriello-ambasciatore-onu-1.8018529) seems a reliable source. Kindly cast your advice if it could be sufficient. Regarding the "controversial" claim, as far as I could go through it is mentioned in one article by the Indian journalist/columnist Arvind Bandhari. Let me know how to point it out. Thanks again and regards.UNMD (talk) 11:12, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

ANI and you

Do you understand WP:ANI? In particular, the warnings every time you try to post something? About revdel and such? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 22:54, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

I do now. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:56, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks - sorry for overly blunt ranting :) --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:08, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

No problem :) §FreeRangeFrog^croak 01:01, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

Norwegian article

In case you are puzzled by what I posted to the article creator's talk page - that was also not a very nice thing to put up about someone. Yngvadottir (talk) 16:31, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, that too. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:05, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Back in December 2012 you PRODded this, and it was deleted. Undeletion has now been requested at WP:REFUND, so per WP:DEL#Proposed deletion I have restored it, and now notify you in case you wish to consider AfD. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:03, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

@JohnCD: Thanks for the heads up. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 21:04, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Howdy

Hi FRG, My thread at BLPN went unanswered so I'm approaching you individually. Would you have 10 minutes to look at this rather short BLPN Bevan Morris and make any edits that you feel are needed? To me it looks a little fluffy but I'd like a second opinion. Many thanks,-- — Keithbob • Talk • 14:42, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

@Keithbob: It's kinda puffy here and there and it seems he's the director of pretty much everything, but what's the concern? §FreeRangeFrog^croak 17:04, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for taking a look. Listed some areas of concern thread here. But if you feel like it looks OK, then I'm OK too. Just wanted a second opinion. Cheers!-- — Keithbob • Talk • 17:53, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Vlad the Impaler: Thank you!

I thought you might find it amusing that I was in the middle of reverting the vandalism done to Vlad the Impaler when you got it done, just a moment before I did! Thanks for doing it. I didn't mind the juvenile humor the vandal added, but removing the REST of the useful info was unforgiveable. I don't know why people do such things.

Love your handle, FreeRangeFrog. Frogs are cool! I've had calendars featuring colorful photos of strange and beautiful frogs.

--Ben Culture (talk) 19:11, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

Well, it's definitely good to know someone else is looking out for that page, for some reason it's a vandalism magnet. Thank you! §FreeRangeFrog^croak 22:35, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

Viktor Sonnenfeld

Hello FreeRangeFrog,

why are you removing sourced info about Jewish heritage of Viktor Sonnenfeld? It is backed up by Croatian source written by known Croatian historian Zlata Živaković-Kerže, who specialises in Croatian-Jewish history. Soon I will add another source, from the book, that claims Sonnenfelds Jewish heritage. What are your sources for claiming that Viktor Sonnenfeld is a Roman Catholic? With regards, --SadarMoritz (talk) 11:17, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Rupert Taylor

Is no longer a prof at Wits, so that would make the lede inaccurate. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 23:18, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

You are right of course, I amended the intro to reflect that. I was mainly trying to get the "scandal" out of the intro. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 23:21, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! Jim1138 (talk) 23:31, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Centerville Delinquints Comment

Sorry, Free. Didn't mean to step on your toes. We must have been reading the same posting over at OTRS. I thought the thing warranted a speedy, but I like your note at AFD - let the admins decide. Cheers, mate! Geoff ^{Who, me?} 00:39, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Hah! Yeah, we were definitely reading the same email :) §FreeRangeFrog^croak 03:05, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

And it looks like we made the right choice, as the article has not only been speedied, but salted. Who'd a thunk it! Regards, Geoff ^{Who, me?} 02:43, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
