Rochelle Coleman's Page
Hello Amortias
The "User: Rochelle Coleman" page was deleted because it violated G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion. I understand it may have seemed like an advertising scheme, but that was not my intention. I am new to Wikipedia so I may have violated some rules without meaning to. I realize the external links I provided were a red flag, so I will remove and not add them again. I am not Rochelle Coleman so my intention when creating the page was to tell the unique and interesting story of a friend. In no way shape or form was my intention to advertise any company. With this being said, I was wondering if there is any way the page could be brought back, or if I could receive the information i had posted on the page, in order to help me outline a new page which I will create (with all of Wikipedia's rules in mind of course). Thank you for your help.
Regards, Anthony — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rochelle Coleman (talk • contribs) 03:54, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, you will need to request this at requests for undeletion, it would be best to ask for it to be recreated as a deaft to allow you to edit ti without risk of it being deleted (unless you post something against the rules). It might also be worth requesting a username change here so that people dont think your self promoting and writing an autobiography. Hope that helps as a starter for ten.

dude!!!!!! why did you delete my stuff????!!?!?!?!?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.225.164.76 (talk) 19:36, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, there are various policies on Wikipedia including, WP:CIVIL that explain how we have to behave even when dealing with people we do not nessecarily agree with. I personally have no time for this particular church or its policies but i still have to treat everything equally. If I find I cannot be impartial when dealing with an issue on here I try to avoid it alltogether. Amortias (T)(C) 19:41, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

ANI closure
Thanks for your contributions and activities around number of noticeboards. You are doing an impressive job.
I don't think that you should have closed this issue. Last month, the page was discussed on ANI because of misconduct carried out by some editors. Check [1], [2].
What you have to say now? OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 02:52, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- @OccultZone: As there was no administrator involvement and the issue was between 2 editors who were just edit warring it appeared more appropriate to move the report to WP:AN3. I closed the report after raising it at this location. I felt that as it appeared to be unrelated to the previous issue it should be discussed in the appropriate place. If you feel this was in error feel free to reopen it but I did not feel there was a need for two reports on the same issue. Amortias (T)(C) 08:10, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- No worries and thanks for explaining your action. OccultZone (Talk • Contributions • Log) 08:20, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
My recent edit.
Hi, I got your message regarding my edit that you reversed. I like to know why it was reversed since it is factual? The initial explanation for "assault weapon" is incorrect and needed to be explained better. The article as it stands now after reversal and edited is incorrect as well. The first part starting with "In the United States, assault weapon is a legal and political term used in firearms laws to define and restrict specific firearms." That entire paragraph is false. The legal classifications that i tried to explain are by defined ATF (Alcohol,Tobacco and Firearms)that regulates these firearms. There isn't any category named "assault weapon" because a "weapon" can be anything and "assault" just describes an attack. So please explain to me why this was denied. Jorgen — Preceding unsigned comment added by Midwinternight (talk • contribs) 17:40, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Midwinternight
- Your edits were reverted as you removed information that was backed up by external sources and replaced it with unsourced information. If you add information to an article (especially if you have removed evidenced information) then you need to back up your additions with reliable sources. On your first edit you also falied to provide an edit sumary explaining your editing. Amortias (T)(C) 17:50, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
The "reliable sources" backing up the paragraph I object to are all opinions from four different anti-gun media outlets. Is that what Wikipedia is all about? Quoting media outlets?
In my edit I referred to ATF as my source. That's at least a Government source and if you try buying a firearm it will be very clear to you what definitions the Government use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Midwinternight (talk • contribs) 20:00, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
- Wikipedia relies heavily if not almost entirely on sourced information, the information you added had no sources to confirm what was being said. You would need to include inline citations to back up where someone could find this information to verify it. The information you removed had these citations included and they have been decided by the community to be reliable (I make no claim on the reliability of these sources as gun regulation is different in my country of residence so the rules and government policies I am aware of are not the same) if you wish to iclude your information again it stands a better chance of remaining included if you can provide links to this information, this link should provide you with the guidance on how to reference information included on Wikipedia. Amortias (T)(C) 20:37, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
reply
Thanks, I will find exact sources. I do find it, shall we say "questionable" that Wiki uses mainstream media as a "reliable source" when we all know they are nothing but a part of the political campaigns. Referring to there own articles as a "reliable source" is a great way of distorting information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Midwinternight (talk • contribs) 22:38, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Cornish Riviera Express page
Hi Amortias,
Sending this again because I forgot to sign with 4 tildes. I tried to add an external link to this page. You have removed it because you thought it was a test, which maybe because I am finding the Wikipedia systems confusing.
Any chance you could reinstate it and put it in the "External Links" section please? Llantiliocastle (talk) 10:16, 7 September 2014 (UTC) 07/09/2014
- Hi, moved to external links. if you have something that is removed you can still see it by going into the page and selecting view history, this will let you see anything from any of the previous version of the page to copy/paste it into the correct place. There wasnt an extenal links section o this page so I have created one. You can add an external links section to any page without one by including ==External Links== before the ==References== line and including them there. Amortias (T)(C) 10:42, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

deletion of page
I find the information on Marvell Academy very biased and dated. The article leaves out information about the current school and it's mission and purpose. It is an incomplete history that does not pertain to current faculty, staff and students. I believe this article falsely leads readers to think this school still operates as a segregation school. Editorofcontent (talk) 18:23, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi. If this is the case you would be better placed editing the article to bring it up to date. If you have more up to date information then you can replace the current content to bring it in line with its current setup. Attack pages {{db:G10}} are pages that have been specifically created and used solely for the purpose of attacking an individual, organisation or another article. As this page was accurate it cant be considered an attack page but just out of date. Hopefully you can bring it in line to reflect its current status. Amortias (T)(C) 18:28, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
change to an article, DJ Umek
Hello Amortias!
I'm Dénes, official ambassador of UMEK and his label 1605 Music Therapy. Please check it here: https://www.facebook.com/umek.si/app_245705742279727 So, I have informations about him from first hand. Please tell me what should I do for the restoration of the deleted stuff. Thank you for your help. Czafitdenes (talk) 20:06, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Czafitdenes. Information on Wikipedia needs to be backed up by reliable sources from a neutral uninvolved party. If you have a conflict of interest as you may have being involved with him profesionally you would need to request this information be added on the talk page of the article providing evidence to back up the information. This can then be reviewed by an uninvolved editor who can include it or advise what else is needed for it to be included in the article. Amortias (T)(C) 20:09, 4 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi Amortias. I need some help. I would like to upload a photo about Umek, but there is no free about him. I have some copyrighted and I can get permission from him. What can I do, how can I upload it to the infobox? Thanks a lot :) Czafitdenes (talk) 19:57, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, you would need to get the copyright holder to read and undertake the actions on this page which releases the image to wikipedia for use.Once his is done it will be able to be uploaded. Amortias (T)(C) 20:01, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Tulsa race riot
You guys make a mockery of Wikipedia with bullying tactics to prevent real information from reaching people. You and the others have not and will not actively discuss the article Tulsa Race Riot because you know you will lose that battle. Instead you war with technicalities and using bullying tactics. This is brigading and its been done for years. You hope to silence me with your friends, but all I have to do is attract more people to this situation. Then what will you do? Try and ban everyone? Is THIS how change is made here? By "consensus" instead of what is actually right? If enough voices say something is true, then its true? The logic you are using is pathetic. I hope you can sleep well at night using bullying tactics and "shouting louder" in order to try and steam roll over others. Also notice I have not called you any names and there is no personal attack here at all. I am speaking of your tactics, which are a complete joke and an affront on truth and knowledge. Your tactics are the worst when it comes to unleashing true information. Your tactics are sneaky, and I hope others see your tactics for what they are. Cquest (talk) 23:37, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
- If you have reliable sources to confirm the changes you have made then please feel free to present these at the talk page, a reliable source will swing a lot more consensus than repeatedly claiming something as the truth. The enough voices saying something making it the truth unfortunatley does not work as evidence to support a claim. Millions of people claim the universe was created by a Big Bang with millions of others claiming it was Divine Creation this is why Wikipedia works on the bsis of sourced information and not what is considered the truth. Amortias (T)(C) 23:46, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
Again, this is rubbish that completely dismisses what has gone on with the Tulsa Race Riot for nearly 100 years now. It was covered up. It was finally said to have existed much later. The term domestic terror attack doesnt come into popular lexicon until 1994. There is no rush for America to call it a terrorist attack. Yet, its a pick and choose problem.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_terrorism_in_the_United_States
Bombing of Los Angeles Times building - 1910 Wall Street Bombing - 1920
These are said to be domestic terror attacks but I don't see any sources having to SAY they are domestic terror attacks. Its just accepted by what HAPPENED that its a domestic terror attack. You don't need a source to STATE that. You need facts to show substantiate, and then you need to source those facts. FOr example, we don't have to show proof that Phil Ivey is a poker player, we see him playing poker to know this. We then note that he has played poker and source that this has indeed happened. We don't need to nor do we source someone calling him a poker player as evidence that he is a poker player. That is NOT how wikipedia works or has ever worked. The evidence that he is a poker player is the action of him playing, which is then sourced.
So if you want every time someone has called something something to be sourced, instead of the facts of the event itself, then the entire system needs to be uprooted. But we all know this. This is just a tactic, its an excuse to justify actions instead of actually confronting the issues head on - what happened in fact was indeed a domestic terror attack by definition and there is no disputing that as the facts are in the wikipedia article already. You can't dispute those facts, and those facts add up to domestic terrorism. But none of you will actually READ the article to see that. Stop with the farce. This is a circus.

- No problem, it looks like we were both trying to fix it and it got screwed up somewhere inbetween. I've reverted it back to a version further back hopefully pre-vandalism. If you can havea second look to make sure it reads ok again it would be appreciated. Amortias (T)(C) 20:50, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Response to your message
Hello Amortias,
Yes, I recently edited the page on Islamic Sports. As I understand, Wikipedia is open for anyone to make contributions and edits. Also, everything I intentionally scrapped (which you restored) is not "encyclopedic content", is from unverified sources, therefore it should be open to editing. Secondly, I did write an edit summary. I would have explained further but the edit summary had a word count limit to how many words could be used. The reason I edited the page is because the content currently on the page is an inaccurate portrayal of "Islamic sports", and I edited the page to contribute a redefinition and some facts that might be of benefit for someone. I do not appreciate your removal of the content I posted without just cause or reason.
So I think you should review the reasons why you restored the content that I edited, and restore my contribution; and no, I did not make the edit by mistake.
Thank you.

Re. Chefallen - Adam Neira discussion re. Tekhelet. Please read the details of the case below...Thank you...
Extended content

---|
11:15 am Paris Tues. 16th Sep. 2014 To Chefallen, Please inform me how I can send messages to you in the correct manner via Wikipedia, and also how to use the Talk page for Tekhelet. BTW, all the correspondence you have written plus edits, deletions and changes have been recorded. I keep excellent records. Jurisprudence and issues of truth and justice interest me greatly. As a litigant I won a very important court case on Feb. 2nd 1998 at the Melbourne Magistrates Court. (There was twelve months of preparation for the case ! I defeated two QC's) My grandfather was a well respected solicitor in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia. Anyway let me go through a few things with you now...I will respond to your little asides and put downs. (Not sure who is paying you either. It would be fun to meet you face to face in a bar for a little chat nu...) Your writings begin with C : Mine are prefaced with AN : C: Adam, you have an opinion about tekhelet AN : Gee thanks for the condescension. I don't need or seek your validation. G-d knows what I am up to. C : and that's fine. You might even be able to find AN : “Even be able to find”...Wow ! You make it sound as if everyone wears the blue thread. Go to the Western Wall of the Old City on a Friday Shabbat and count the number of observant Jewish men who are wearing tzitizit. You will see maybe 2% maximum who wear the blue thread. I’ve spoken to various Rabbis and their assistants over the last six months about the issue. I visited Lederman’s Shul in Bnei Brak on the afternoons of the 28th and 29th May for five hours total. You must be aware that Rav. Chaim Kanievsky has not made a psak on this issue. C: support for your contention that "there is no unanimous decision by all of the current leading Jewish sages that the claims of the Ptil Tekhelet organisation are true" if you were to go about adding this to the article in an encyclopaedic way AN : What is an “encyclopaedic way”. You are trying to undermine my presentation by getting bogged down in semantics. Sabotage by pedantry and nit picking. C : that is, adding the statement in a neutral tone of voice AN : What is a neutral tone of voice when writing ? Your use of language is very poor. Of course when you are presenting evidence to a court you present facts. A fact is not “neutral”. It is just that. A fact ! C : and citing reliable sources, (not yourself) or your original research. AN : In a court of law evidence is presented by witnesses, prosecutors and defenders. The evidence can be in the form of written words, witnesses, objects, DNA etc. etc. On all these counts in front of an honest judge with my claims on tekhelet I will be proven to be a “Reliable Source”. C. However, what is not fine is the following: Disruptive editing[edit] Deleting sourced statements such as [1], [2] and adding material sourced to or referring to yourself, such as here: [3], [4] ; see WP:COS is disruptive editing and unacceptable. AN : Any typographical errors I have made or with editing errors are a result of unfamiliarity with the Wikipedia platform. But the factual, content rich parts of my updates are correct. They are not “Disruptive Editing”. C : Soapboxing An article is not a discussion forum or a platform for your personal views. So adding long (or even short) commentary such as [5] is unacceptable. AN : When discussing certain complex subjects especially ones as esoteric and clouded in mystery as Tekhelet, one must present certain commentaries. A responsa in Jewish law IS a form of commentary/counsel. C : Sockpuppetry If you edit an article using your user name, then using your IP address User:87.91.50.226 to repeatedly make the same edits that have been challenged by other users is in contravention of the Wikepedia policy on sockpuppetry. AN : If you read the history of my edits, you will see that only in my eagerness to present my findings did I edit via an IP Address without logging in. This was a result of enthusiasm not an effort to be anonymous. FYI, over the last 14 years I have been actively presenting my counsel on a vast range of subjests on many media platforms all around the world. I am proud to say I always use my real, legal name. Unlike others I don’t snipe from afar. C : "Ownership" Please stop assuming ownership of articles. Behavior such as this is regarded as disruptive and could lead to edit wars andpersonal attacks, and is a violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. No-one owns an article. So telling me "Please desist from editing my revisions to the "Tekhelet" page" and "Desist forthwith from removing my edits/updates" is way out of line. AN : Interestingly, the Intellectual Property for making tekhelet in the first place was private. Someone, i.e. the High Priests family, did own the Intellectual Property. When the truth comes out about Tekhelet and how it was rediscovered the Wikipedia Page willn need to reflect this. If Wikipedia is to be reputable form of media it must protect the rights of various companies and organisations to their intellectual property. You will not find various pieces of confidential information, e.g. the secret recipe for Coca Cola on Wikipedia. When you are slandered, libelled or defamed it is quite within your right to stand up to the abuse. Also, you should maybe look up the concept of lesee majeste. C : Threatening other users. Please stop your disruptive behaviour. Your behaviour is verging on harassment. Wikipedia prides itself on providing a safe environment for its collaborators, and harassing edits potentially compromise that safe environment. If you continue behaving like this, you may be blocked from editing. It's completely unacceptable to make direct or indirect threats such as "A warning to you...Be very careful who you cast aspersions on" as here: [6] and [7] and here [8]. See above; you do not own the article and do not have the authority to tell another editor not to edit it. That behavior constitutes bullying, violates the civility principles of Wikipedia and is not tolerated. AN : You are being disingenous. Trying to suggest that by defending myself and my findings from slander, deletion, silencing and abuse that is somehow bullying. You are trying to frame the debate and use the “rules” of Wikipedia to fix the outcome. Thus it is not a fair court hearing. See the following article for how someone, i.e. MK Litzman also tried to “set someone up”. www.timesofisrael.com/lipman-denies-making-death-threat-against-haredi-mk/ I am also a very polite and civil person, but one must react to abuse on one’s person... C : September 2014 You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. I've reverted your edits to the article based on all of the above and as noted in the edit comments. If you want to change something in the article, open a discussion on the talk page and state what you want there. If you gain consensus from other editors, we can add it in. If you simply revert to your changes again, I will take this case to the administrators with the request that you be banned from editing Wikipedia as someone who does not seem to be willing to work collaboratively and within the policies of Wikipedia. Chefallen(talk) 02:59, 16 September 2014 (UTC) AN : I repeat...I am happy to work within the parameters of Wikipedia, if it is a fair court setting, and my findings and research can be presented, so please inform me how the Talk forum works. How does one access it ? Is it a “to and fro” process ? Does one post one’s questions then they are answered ? I await your responses to my questions here. I repeat...I keep extensive, detailed notes of all important events and proceedings in my life. It is a habit I have developed since a young man. G-d loves truth and justice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AdamNeira (talk • contribs) 20:19, 16 September 2014 (UTC) |
Hi, not sure what im supposed to be looking at here could you advise the reason for posting this here. Amortias (T)(C) 20:21, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
10:25 Paris Time. Tues. 16th Sep. Well as far as I am aware you and Chillum are some sort of moderators for Wikipidea and you have been sent a request from Chefallen to censor/silence me. Before you make a judgement shouldn't you get both sides of the story ? Thus you should read my response to Chefallen this morning. Also I am not sure how you track people but my updates to the Eduardo Campos site are accurate. I have already received positive feedback from various Brazilians who agree with my pursuit of truth and justice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AdamNeira (talk • contribs) 20:28, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, unfortunatley you are mistaken with regards to my status here. I am an editor with only minor priviliges and nothing that I can use to censor or moderate Wikipedia. Every user is able to see other editors contributions by searching for them under the contributions link near the top of any wikipedia page (as well as several other places). If you coudl provide a link to the specific edit in question that you responded to it would be helpful, this can be done by going into your contribution (link mentioned above) finding the one where you replied, right clicking on the date and time of the change and then copying it and then pasting it between a set of [ ] brackets on this page. this will let me see the exact reponse made at that time without any of the future edits carried out by other individuals.

Welcome to wikipedia? I've been making several edits for several years. Who are you to tell me it's non-constructive or that I've violated some rule? You seriously couldn't have done this in a more polite way or specified what is wrong? You remind me of a lot of people who have really irked me. Go back to kindergarten and learn some tact.

- Hi, the message I placed on your talk page contained the following This information has been discussed repaeatedly and consensus is not to include it. Take it to the talk page to discuss. The information added with reference to the game has been included and removed on various occassions and the consensus has been not to include the information. While the line also includes the message leave a message on my talk page I do not appreciate the tone of your reply. If you can not be WP:CIVIL in your responses especially when accusing me of doing something that appears to fall under this remit please stay off my talk page. Amortias (T)(C) 11:45, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
1. I also did not appreciate the tone of your original post. I thought Brits (I assume your are British (or at least Commonwealth-ish) by how you spell) were the world leaders in manners. Exactly how was I supposed to know to not add the change? Is there something hidden somewhere that I am supposed to check? I've been doing this for quite a while and have never had this issue before. Also, from what I saw, I still didn't see anything that said there have been prior times of people doing the same thing. And don't worry, I don't plan on further editing the page to spite you or anything, but it appears from what I've seen that I'm not the only one who has had this issue with you.
But for real, dude..... damn. And does anyone really OWN the Alien 3 page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.204.114.204 (talk) 22:50, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

172.97.7.247
No need to "threaten" me or anything. I simply removed "India" from "Relations with Samoa" because it didn't have any content under it. It obviously makes no sense having a title floating aimlessly in the middle of an article without any content or text related to it. In the spirit of good faith, I did go check all the Edit History of the page thinking that maybe someone had erased/deleted the content about eventual India-Samoa relations by mistake, but then I saw that no, a user had really just randomly added a title without any single line of content, any single font, even a simple mention saying "Samoa maintains diplomatic relations with the Republic of India". The way it was (and is, now that you reverted it), it makes no sense and has no point in being in the page. It looks like poorly don work.
I then checked said user's page, and I realized that said user had done this to many other pages - just included a title saying "Republic of India" in many countries' bilateral relations' pages, for no real reason. All said changes took place ages ago, so it isn't even possible that said edition were still "ongoing". I removed such blank entries from the pages attempting to clean up this possible vandalism, and I honestly believe that's what ought to be done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.97.7.247 (talk) 17:32, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi the "threats" as such are standard escalating warning given when issues are found within articles. The removal of content should always be backed up with an explanation in the edit summary at the bottom of the edit section, this was the cause for concern with regards to the edits carried out. As there appeared to be a pattern to the removal without explanation this did cause it to be picked up by edit filters taht warn various editors about activity that is classifed as cause for concern. If you wish to remove this information while providing an explanation in the edit summary this will be fine. Amortias (T)(C) 17:38, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: J.C. Spink
Hello Amortias. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of J.C. Spink, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: not a hoax. e.g. http://www.thewrap.com/producer-j-c-spink-puts-asses-seats-goldbergs-clip-video/. Thank you.

- Fair enough I've just tagged a duplicate article with WP:A10 as an obvious duplicate. Could you swing a look at that one though,
- I deleted the second one per housekeeping and mop-up. Can you create the AfD? That will give the newbie time to work on it. Bearian (talk) 21:48, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hopefully the points in the afd will give them an idea what to impove on but im going to go and tag the big issues on the article as well as they ahve some mre useful links available. Amortias (T)(C) 21:56, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Help needed
I don't know what this user is up to but he/she again seems to be engaged in an edit war. He/she had been deleting all sentences with the citation needed tag, and sometimes even referenced information saying that they are against Wiki's policies, even though they were not so. I didn't go for a 3O as we had discussed on our talk pages, and not the article talk page. And he/she had told me many things which really hurt me. I had gone to the administrator's helpdesk, but there all supported him/her. Just by saying that he is a good user and that we can learn a lot from him/her. But that really seemed biased. Since then I have tried to talk to him/her nicely, accept his/her views and even thank him/her for his/her edits. But is this deletion of info correct, even though we can add a citation need tag. And is my inclusion wrong/correct? There's a reference so I deleted the cn tag. I have not come here to win over your belief. But just to intervene and catch hold of the wrongdoer, be it me or RedPenOfDoom. Nor am I rebuking him/her, or asking you to catch hold just of him/her. Please help me!--Tamravidhir (talk) 04:56, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
- I don't think any further help will be needed 'cause as far as my perception is concerned i think the matter has been sorted out. I have added the required tags and references in the concerned article, though TheRedPenOfDoom never turned up (on the article's talk page). But I would request you to go through the edits I made to Bade Achhe Lagte Hain. And I would also like to notify you that TheRedPenOfDoom once again got himself/herself involved in an edit war here. I would just request you to go through this. It's not that I have a grudge against him/her. But I feel that it demotivates other users (as it had demotivated me long back), who may have their own opinions. He/she should instead discuss calmly with others on the concerned article's talk page. Well, that's what I feel. I would not like to generalise it. And if I do so that would be too wrong and unfair on my part. --Tamravidhir (talk) 06:49, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Jason Gann
Hey Amortias! I just realized I totally did that wrong! I'm a huge Wilfred fan, so I wanted to make sure the information was up to date. I was attempting two major issues: 1. It recently came out in various (mostly Australian) periodicals that Gann was indeed innocent of the mentioned assault. It's sort of difficult to weed through. I tried to shorten it to a sentence or two. 2. I also wanted to restructure Gann's Wiki to highlight some of his other notable accomplishments, such as his band, and other experiences. Where I went wrong: 1. Unfinished, I pasted it ALL AT ONCE a. Tiresome (and down with the flu) I had restructured a basic Wiki not including the other accomplishments. b. I updated and shortened the "assault" section. I understand this may have seemed incomplete -- and is totally understandable! Do you recommend I reconfigure section by section or complete then paste? Thanks so much for your understanding! I'm a ravenous researched and stickler for the facts, but a lot of times the citations can play games with my eyes. -itsashaunparty — Preceding unsigned comment added by Itsashaunparty (talk • contribs) 21:08, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
- Section by section is best you can then include an edit summary for each explaining the changes in a bit more detail rather than cramming lots of cahnges into a small description space. Amortias (T)(C) 21:10, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
