I also think that TC should not have handled JJG's AE. The strong reaction to JJG as opposed to the measly hand-slap at most on DC (a veteran I-P battleground editor) shows clearly how lopsided and disproportional that judgement was. And if JJG did in fact file an oversight about TC as he claims, then TC should have refrained from even testing any conflict of interest. --[[User:Shuki|Shuki]] ([[User talk:Shuki|talk]]) 22:39, 22 July 2012 (UTC) |
Revision as of 22:39, 22 July 2012
Please read before posting
- Post all new sections at the bottom of this page, not at random. If you make it clear you ignored these instructions by placing it elsewhere, I am likely to ignore your request in turn.
- If you leave me a message here, I will respond to it here, as fragmented discussions are confusing. I may or may not leave you a notice that I've responded on your talk page. If you specifically request that I do (or do not) give you such a notice when I respond, I'll honor that request. If I contact you on your talk page, I will watchlist it so that I can respond there. If you'd like to leave me a notice when you respond, it would be appreciated, and you'll probably receive a faster followup.
- If you are an admin here to ask me about someone I blocked for vandalism or spamming/advertising, they've agreed to stop it, and you believe they intend to edit productively, go ahead and unblock them. If you still want my opinion please feel free to ask, but there's no obligation. For more complex cases I would appreciate a heads-up, but please go ahead with your best judgment if I don't seem to be online. I would appreciate it if you'd let me know after you do.
- If you email me a question or request, and do not indicate why the matter is sensitive and must be handled privately (and such is not immediately obvious), I may ignore it or respond on your talk page rather than by return email. Talk pages are open to other editors to read, and so are the preferred method of communication for matters involving Wikipedia. If the matter you are speaking to me about is Wikipedia-related and would not violate anyone's privacy by being posted publicly, please use my talk page instead of email. This does not, of course, apply to editors who are blocked from editing.
- If you are here to ask a question regarding deletion of any kind, please read this before asking, and ask only if you need further clarification or still disagree after reading. If you ask a question answered there, I'll just refer you to it anyway.
- While I will generally leave any personal attacks or uncivil comments you may make about me here, that does not mean that I find them acceptable, nor that I will not seek action against attacks that are severe or persistent.
- I reserve the right to remove, revert, or immediately archive any material on this page, but will do so only in extreme circumstances, generally that of personal attacks or outing attempts against others.

Help get rid of notices at top of wiki
Hi @seraphimblade,
Alright so firstly I'm contacting you in regards to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omer_Rains. His wiki has several notices on it that we're trying to get rid of, or perhaps instead delete the entire page. The notice that the page may have been copied and pasted, while being valid since the wiki contains information from wwww.senorains.com, I think should be able to be taken down since the website wwww.senorains.com contains a GNU Free Documentation License, which I believe makes the content eligible for Wikipedia.
Also, the notice about not being written from a neutral view point is true, I am Mr. Rains' personal assistant and he requested that I submit this article. Is there any way to submit it for third party review/edit?
I've also been looking at various other government officials Wikipedias--to see if they have come under the same scrutiny as our article has, and they have not, some of them even simply cited "Government Records" as a source which is very broad. All of the information contained within Omer Rains' wikipedia is factual and can be found within the UC Santa Barbara library (http://www.oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/tf496nb36j/). Unfortunately, he was a Senator in the 70's, so there is very limited information available about him online. We are in the process of contacting the Ventura County Free Press (his district newspaper) since they ran many stories about him while he was Senator--but this takes time.
Basically, I don't know what to do about this wiki and its various problems, I'm wondering whether it should perhaps be deleted until better sources, and a third party editor, become available.
Thanks so much for your time and help, Katie--AmatoKE (talk) 19:55, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
