Please read Wikipedia policy re: [[WP:NOTABILITY]] and [[WP:RELIABLE]], as well as that on original research, [[WP:NOR]]. You've offered no references, and the continued removal of maintenance templates, without resolving legitimate issues, may be seen as vandalism. I did not nominate the article outright for deletion because you seem to know a lot about the publication, and may possess further published material that would support its importance. A Google search didn't seem to turn up anything, but that's not surprising considering the publication's limited range and pre- internet existence. Finding and adding reliable objective sources to support the subject's notability--not removing templates or making threats--is what's needed. That's just good journalism.

:Further clarification, as you might be new to Wikipedia: At this moment, nobody is proposing to delete the article. The placement of maintenance templates is standard practice when an article appears to be a product of original research, and lacks references. This allows you, and any other contributors, to assess the article's strengths and weaknesses, and to improve it. However, regardless of the factual accuracy, an article that has no sources will be tagged by other editors, and may be vulnerable to deletion.

Okay. I will investigate authenticating it, as you are obviously eager to put the template there, but did not answer my question at all. You have pointed out what you say is a problem, but offered no solution. I will leave the template and do what I can to get this taken care of, but in the meantime, you just end up looking hostile and this appears to be a form of harrassment.

April 2010
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Wikipedia. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. 99.156.68.203 (talk) 01:22, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Valley Entertainment Monthly
I have not edited Valley Entertainment Monthly at all. Please see the article history. Abductive (reasoning) 01:37, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
You added those annoying templates stating it is not 'authenticated' when it was a professionally published and produced California newspaper. I already asked you on your talk page to assist me in authenticating it. If you are going to put those templates on a legitimate article, you had better be willing to help out the people you are criticizing. Otherwise, you are just a fly in the ointment and I will continue to remove them. If you continue to put them back, I will also contact Wiki management directly to complain about the harrassment.

Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. 99.156.68.203 (talk) 03:09, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
