Can you put on K6kas page that there is a sock puppet investigation on him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ilovethesims5 (talk • contribs) 17:43, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pokeware

Discospinster

The Company is ceasing operations and on top of it the page included factually incorrect information.

I am the current CEO of the Company and responsible for winding down the Company.

As such, please allow me to edit it or please permanently take down the page until further notice.

Thanks,

Kalam Cosmological Argument

I made an edit on the Kalam Cosmological Argument page because the previous editor named Dan Barker as a critic of the argument alongside those who were actually qualified to make criticisms. Barker is not a scientist or a philosopher. J.L Mackie, Quentin Smith, and Michael Martin are philosophers and Paul Davies, Lawrence Kraus, and Victor Stenger are scientists. Whoever made those edits even gave Barker his own criticisms. Barker is a layman, nothing more. Putting him on there as an authority is like putting David Silverman or The Amazing Atheist as an authority. I could have made more edits since it all seemed biased put I decided to leave it at excising Barker since his inclusion was most clearly a mistake. Even a Dawkins fanboy would concede with that. I suppose some amateur new atheist read his book, loved it, and decided to include it. I hate to draw conclusions like that but if the editor was actually well read then he would have cited actual science and actual philosophy. Please take this into consideration before you remove my edits. It would be a mistake to misinform people into thinking that Barker is qualified or that his arguments are valid. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.84.77.224 (talk) 22:14, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, but you have to briefly say in the edit summary why you are removing the content. ... discospinster talk 22:17, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

EFT edits

Your information is out dated and unsubstantiated. There are dozens of clinical studies that now prove without a shadow of a doubt the effectiveness of EFT.

Please review the following article in the Journal of Psychology, 2013 and update you information. http://tappingsolutionfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Clinical-EFT-as-Evidenced-Based-Practice.pdf

My Father is a profession EFT couch who studied with Gary Craig and over 10 Years I have seen people come to him with all sorts of phobias such as agoraphobia, aquaphobia. The man with agoraphobia had never been able to take his children to the park, the lady with aquaphobia had never been able to go swimming or even take a bath. Both now free of their fears and living life stress free. Dozens of people with severe allergies, emotional traumas, women who had been sexually abused and in therapy for a life time after 1-5 sessions with my Dad transformed.

Read the research and hold yourself accountable for providing what clinical studies have now proven. EFT is an effective therapeutic tool and you a doing a disservice to those in search of help by not providing the true scope this method has to offer those in need. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angela10336 (talk • contribs) 23:15, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can't copy and paste content from other sources, like [1], as this brings up copyright issues. ... discospinster talk 02:22, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clifford Starks edit

But that dude's penis fell out and I included a reference link.

There's no apparent reason why this should be mentioned in his Wikipedia article. Was this an event that got noticed in the media? Did newspapers write articles about it? ... discospinster talk 02:40, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be hard pressed to find any print journalism about Clifford Starks, but media in the sporting niche covered his penis falling out of his shorts. Note the reference link from Karyn Bryant, Fox Sports 1 onscreen personality and host of much UFC content. It's the most distinguishable part of his career.

Then you should be able to find sources that verify this. ... discospinster talk 02:51, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Here's the aforementioned Karyn Bryant talking with the man, Clifford Starks, about how his penis fell out at the weigh-ins. Wikipedia will not let me include the external link here so you'll have to fill in the (DOT) to review. It has been queued up to the comments about his penis. http://youtu (DOT) be/h1yd-lnebNc?t=2m11s

...

Based on your lack of response I'm feeling you deemed that interview is sufficient, I'll amend the Clifford Starks entry again shortly to include when his penis fell out at the UFC 137 weigh-ins.

My lack of response was due to being away from the computer. I still don't think that the interview is sufficient to establish that this is an event worthy of being entered into an encyclopedia article. If it was more widely covered in the media then perhaps. ... discospinster talk 13:43, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't more prominent coverage of Clifford Starks altogether. If applying the same scrutiny to the man as you do to his penis falling out, it's difficult to justify his inclusion in an encyclopedia at all. National cable media such as Karyn Bryant of Fox Sports 1 documenting and addressing the time his penis fell out with him on video at the event doesn't stand out as unworthy among the other sources cited.

Sue Wong

I am wondering whether all these advertising editors on Sue Wong are actually the same person - in addition to Allenchai, please see Emelray, ISP one, and LukeSueWong (Sue Wong's son, seemingly). Note the claim in this edit summary that a message was left at "the office" by Sue Wong's PR. Apparently the subject has been making commands from on high as to what she wants on her article, including that her age not be publicised and forbidding use of File:Sue Wong 2014.JPG in the article - all fair enough, but rather a shame. But there's definitely some kind of PR campaign going on with this article. Mabalu (talk) 22:11, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I agree it's probably the same person. It happens sometimes, a subject of an article wants it to reflect a certain view of the person, which is understandable, but they can't control what goes in it unless there is a biographies of living persons violation. Not to mention copyright issues that usually arise (i.e. pasting the text from the official web page without realising that they are automatically offering the content under a Creative Commons licence which can then be used by anyone). ... discospinster talk 23:39, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can only the media and notable personalities criticize WP?

Please be so kind as to point me to the WP policy that states that a WP editor cannot criticize WP. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:15, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You can criticise all you want, but it doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article. Please refer to WP:OR and WP:NEUTRAL for relevant policies. ... discospinster talk 00:16, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Don´t act if you were stupid. You are not stupid. I have a criticism of WP. And I have the right to criticize WP which you cannot deny me. So, don´t act as if you were stupid. You are not stupid. You know very well that any WP editor has the right to criticize WP. Go and ask Jimmy Wales about that. You are not stupid. You are not going to fool me acting as if you were stupid. I know you are not stupid. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:22, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK whatever, just don't add your personal commentary to articles. ... discospinster talk 00:24, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please indicate the WP policy that states I am not allowed to criticize WP. Thank you. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:26, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is no WP policy that states I -as a WP editor - cannot criticize WP. And you and everyone else on WP know that. So, I will go ahead and state my criticisms of WP on the "Criticisms of WP" page. Thank you very much. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:32, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you continue to add your own complaints to the Wikipedia article, you will be blocked. ... discospinster talk 00:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I ask you again: please indicate the WP policy that states I cannot criticize WP? Or, I would appreciate it very much if you could be so kind as to indicate the WP policy that specifically states that a WP editor is forbidden from criticizing WP. Thank you. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:37, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No original research and Neutral point of view are the policies. ... discospinster talk 00:38, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not doing original research: I simply have a view I want to state about WP. It is a personal opinion from personal experience: neutrality is not relevant. This is completely personal. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:42, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Neither No original research nor Neutral point of view state that a WP editor is forbidden from criticizing WP. I thus have the right to criticize WP. ParvisStPierre (talk) 00:44, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are not going to fool me acting as if you were stupid. I know you are not stupid. Your opinion doesn't belong in articles. The policies were linked for you. Please don't pretend to be stupid. --Onorem (talk) 00:45, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not adding any content in the article here on the talk page: thus, it is impossible for me to "edit war" here on the talk page. How thick and stupid you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, thank you very much for your very useful contributions: now I know that a WP editor is (unofficially) prohibited from criticizing WP - which is, obviously, completely contrary to the basic principles of WP (which you thick and stupid lot here on this talk page obviously know nothing about). You are all very stupid - that is for sure: thick and stupid, as we say in my ´hood. Well, there is nothing we can do about it: you thick and stupid lot will take "good" care of this thick and stupid WP online encyclopedia (you lot do not realize how thick and stupid your are: imagine: accusing me of edit warring on the talk page!!!!! What utter stupidity!!!!!! And stating that a WP editor cannot criticize WP!!!!!!! What utter stupidity on your part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ParvisStPierre (talk) 01:25, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Mod Squad and others

Hi Discospinster,

I noticed the edits to The Mod Squad, and was looking at a bit. It seems that Worldvision Enterprises is a real distribution company, and at least IMDB (perhaps not the /most/ WP:RS out there) cites it as one for The Mod Squad. I am still concerned a bit though given the edits from that IP today. (all seeming to be along the same lines) I also noticed that the IP belongs to a "Communication" company, and I'm not sure there is COI or not. Along with that - there seem to be a series of "warnings" issues over the years to that IP. I'm not confidant enough to just blindly revert all of today's edits (including his revert to your revert), but perhaps in a few weeks I can help look into this if you'd like. I'm basically leaving this note to you as a placeholder to my own contribs so I can look back when I have more time. Cheers. — Ched :  ?  01:57, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've encountered this (type of) editor before and I found it's just easier to revert on sight than to check every single edit (assuming it's something that can be checked). Sure, one or two of the edits might be valid but it's a very low percentage and trying to verify is a waste of other editors' time. ... discospinster talk 12:37, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
