User talk:WikiOriginal-9
For your information, I looked for the topic in the search engine, but nobody had made a page about it. So, I created the first page on the topic. You probably created a second page while I was making the ORIGINAL page. Thus, it's your fault that a second page existed. Luckily, someone had the good sense to redirect it to my page. - Seislund — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seislund (talk • contribs) 19:29, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Alfred Gaynor
Hello. Category:American prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment is a subcategory of Category:American prisoners and detainees, and Alfred Gaynor was sentenced strictly to life imprisonment. Charles Manson, on the other hand, had a long criminal history that included time served in correctional facilities prior to becoming a serial murderer, and therefore there was a need to represent that period of his history as well. In most cases, however, we try to only include the most fine tuned category.Hoops gza (talk) 02:23, 14 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello. Your recent edit to List of serial killers in the United States appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(talk) 23:42, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

The edit summary appears in:

Serial killer list
Hello, WikiOriginal-9. From looking at your edit history it has come to my attention that you are probably interested in creating many new articles on serial killers (amongst other killers). I am working on redesigning the List of serial killers in the United States. You can see my work on it thusfar here: User:Magnoliasouth/sandbox (just scroll down. Although this is actually someone else's sandbox, I could copy and paste it to my own sandbox if I so wish). Would you be interested in working on creating this list? The list can only contain people with articles.Hoops gza (talk) 21:56, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Fhfg.png
Thanks for uploading File:Fhfg.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

murderpedia
While I appreciate the effort re Wolfgang Schmidt, I don't think murderpedia can be considered a reliable source. Can you consider rewriting based on other more direct sources?

- What's the problem?WikiOriginal-9 (talk)
There's no problem at all, I just was not sure if you were familiar with it for your own use. Sorry for the confusing wording. For instance, your inclusion of an image on Velma Barfield was reverted by an IP without an explanation given in the edit summary, so I reverted it back. For instance, if you are so inclined, you could have all of the pages of murderers on your watchlist.Hoops gza (talk) 01:19, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Ways to improve George Rice (American football)
Hi, I'm Teblick. WikiOriginal-9, thanks for creating George Rice (American football)!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. You need to flesh out this article with more information about George Rice. Consider the following as some possibilities:
- His work as a coach with the Oilers and at the high-school level
- The fact that he played three sports at LSU, his being selected as All-SEC and All-American, and his participation in the Hula Bowl
Additional information might be available, but these turned up in a quick search. I think Your subject deserves to have more told about him.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Eddie Blick (talk) 20:23, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Hugh Wolfe.jpeg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/48px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on File:Hugh Wolfe.jpeg, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- The image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated. (See section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)
- The image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. (See section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Orphaned non-free image File:Wolfe Hugh.jpeg
![⚠](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Ambox_warning_blue.svg/35px-Ambox_warning_blue.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Wolfe Hugh.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 10:00, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Since this subject is way outside my usual area of interest, would you mind giving me a quick review and tell me where I can improve this?

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Jack Butler (American football).jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Jack Butler (American football).jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{Non-free fair use}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Hey, WikiOriginal. Small request: can you be consistent in your use of American month-first dates in your footnotes? Mixed date formats in text, footnotes, etc., drive those of who participate in Good Article review absolutely bonkers.

Ways to improve Allen Lyday
Hi, I'm Fevrret. WikiOriginal-9, thanks for creating Allen Lyday!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. The article is too short
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Fevrret (talk) 00:55, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

You're absolutely killing it with all these football player creations. Keep up the excellent work. Yankees10 20:24, 6 September 2014 (UTC) |

Yup its gotta be the RB. According to his PFR page, he also was a DB.--Yankees10 01:27, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
People from Phoenix
Hi! Thanks for providing the reference. I just spent 4 days making sure all the folks in the athletic section were referenced. Hopefully over the next two weeks I'll have every person referenced. Onel5969 (talk) 03:18, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
re: Redlinks
Hi. I'd estimate at least 10,000, maybe more. Some areas are very well covered, some have little or no coverage. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 19:39, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

NFL free agent vs. retired?
Hey, WO, I just saw your edits to the Earl Everett article. When we're cleaning up the infobox after an end-of-career "free agency" and converting the article to the "retired" version, we delete the "currentteam" and "status" parameters from the infobox, and remove any reference to "free agent" from the lead. The "finalteam" and "finalyear" parameters should also be added. The "currentnumber" parameter becomes "number" and all jersey numbers worn may be added. Cheers.

Free agent
I understand what you are saying with the free agent thing, but if you don't include it in the infobox or intro it looks like the player is retired.--Yankees10 01:46, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, i've noticed it too. It's pretty bad. But i'd leave the guys who played last year or were just cut this year. Anytime before that I wouldn't have a problem with you changing.--Yankees10 02:07, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah I agree with 2012.--Yankees10 02:16, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah unfortunately there is still a bunch of guys that played in the UFL thats pages aren't updated, even though the leagues been gone for 2 years now. It's bad.--Yankees10 03:19, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah I agree with 2012.--Yankees10 02:16, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Stephen Jones (Football Player) and Stephen Jones (Canadian football)
Dear WikiOriginal-9: I see that you have made an article about football player Stephen Jones. You likely didn't notice that there was a draft already under development about this fellow, which I have linked above. Your article is a little short on info and sources. Would you consider using some of the information and sources in the draft to improve the article? If so, please feel free to move it; I can help with the attribution (to credit the original editor) afterwards if necessary. —Anne Delong (talk) 21:51, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Response to your question
At Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Stern review, you asked "Why was this account blocked?" In doing so, you have (likely inadvertently) walked into one of the stranger cases at Wikipedia. Stern review (talk · contribs) was originally blocked in December 2013 because of the spate of single-line, poorly sourced articles created by this user and all of the sockpuppet accounts xe created. Since then, every few days, a new spate of similar one-line poorly sourced articles (always about moth species) appears, and a new group of users is added to the list of sockpuppets. The articles themselves are not really the issue. The issue is the user's refusal to abide by Wikipedia policies and continued creation of new accounts to evade the original block.

DNB
I want to remind you that our rules about plagiarism say that all material quoted or copied from another source must be indicated exactly -- when you copy something from the DNB you need to indicate by quotation marks or some other means exactly what part of it is quoted--the copyright tag by itself is not suficient. --otherwise, when people make changes how will they know? (And I remind you that there is a new edition, available easily in any UK library and most large US libraries; even for older figures, there is often new information. DGG ( talk ) 05:42, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Well, its not the exact same and I haven't seen anyone else put quotes. I don't have a subscription for ONDB. WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 15:21, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Most of what is necessary to a successful DNB conversion is covered in detail on the page Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography/Walkthrough. That was put up three years ago. A more recent discussion is at User talk:Charles Matthews/Archive 39#DNB stuff.
- Matthew Skinner is mentioned there by User:Moonriddengirl, who for these purposes should be treated as fairly authoritative, given her role. What comes out there is that (a) for conformity with the plagiarism guideline, inline referencing is considered sufficient; (b) it is not entirely clear it is necessary.
- To sum up, not everyone likes DNB conversion, but the WikiProject guidelines seem fairly close to satisfying the policy requirements. Inline referencing is good practice anyway, and can be recommended.
- I can add that I'm putting together a package of fact-checking measures, in relation to some discussions Andrew Gray and I have been having with the ODNB. Emphasis in the WikiProject is likely to turn towards more explicit logging of checking measures. Charles Matthews (talk) 15:38, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- PS Wikipedia:OUP#Waitlist would be a way to get ODNB access. Charles Matthews (talk) 15:42, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
Tyle Patmon
If he made the NFL, his debut date doesn't really matter, check other NFL articles. Also, its not the best thing putting the word "made" in two concurrent sentences.Tecmo (talk) 16:00, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- I don't see the problem with it.--Yankees10 01:07, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
Wolfgang Schmidt
Hi, I transferred this article to your userspace as I don't need it anymore. I then realized that you had already created the article. Could you consider asking an admin to do a history merge, so the previous history (now stored at User:WikiOriginal-9/Wolfgang_Schmidt_(serial_killer)) will be preserved? Thanks.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 04:13, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
