Hello, Ethan, I did remove your content from the helix Studios Academy Article because it violates the wiki and information placed there in belongs to Helix Thanks for understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.106.222.184 (talk) 20:05, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
Hello, 99.106.222.184. I did not add any content to the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/HELIX STUDIOS page. First, the page is not owned by Helix (see here.) Second, if you contest the deletion of the HELIX STUDIOS page, please post on the talk page. If you contest the deletion, I would advise that you improve the page by adding more information. Thanks, Ethan. Eteethan (talk) 20:21, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
re: plurality agreement I see. Thank you. I am pretty unfamiliar with Wikipedia features. The four-tilde-signature is nifty. 76.16.250.48 (talk) 11:30, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
Sorry for any confusion. Eteethan (talk) 21:24, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
Undoing of edit
Why would you think my edit was unconstructive? Did you look at it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.61.83.123 (talk) 23:40, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
Hello, 66.61.83.123. I am sorry for undoing your edit to Dyscrasis hendeli. I made a mistake. Please remember to be civil when discussing things with other editors. Also, don't forget to add four tildes after comments you make on people's talk pages. Again, I am sorry for the error. Eteethan (talk) 00:40, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
AFD vs. PROD
Please stop mixing up the AFD and PROD processes. You are continuing to issue AFD removal warnings to users who have not removed AFDs, but have removed PRODs as noted in the WP:PROD policy on objecting or contesting PRODs. In other words, removal of PROD notices is not a violation. Thank you. 2602:30A:2EFE:F050:884:A54E:F6D5:C2AF (talk) 21:50, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

DSS Logo
Eteethan, I'm afraid you are mistaken. The seal you're trying to put up is not an official seal. It is fan art. Please see the DS article talk page for details. AFAIK the State Department has not granted DS permission to develop and use a separate official seal/logo. MSD often uses non-official patches they develop internally, but the only official seal representing their unit is that of the State Department. If you believe I'm mistaken and that the yellow/blue badge seal is actually official, please cite an official source (e.g. a .gov website). Thanks. 69.143.107.180 (talk) 01:58, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
69.143.107.180: The seal has been in use for some years now. It should remain in the article, unless you can find a source that says it is unofficial and not used in official settings.Rockford1963 (talk) 06:42, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Not sure. Seems like this issue is over...Eteethan (talk) 00:36, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
Why removing facts, it is not a question of neutrality but facts. If you have opposing please state them not remove something because you call for neutrality. 178.149.25.175 (talk) 12:56, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Hello, 178.149.25.175. Please cite content you add before you call it a "fact". It may very well be a fact but you need to add references. A youtube video is not a valid source. If you add citations to your content feel free to re-add it. Thank you for your understanding.Eteethan(talk) 13:34, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- There was other references beside YouTube videos and did you read them at all? Beside that many YouTube videos are documentary and historical material, and why not to use them? What makes them not valid source and if there is web site that writes something it is valid source? Was a valid source thousands of claims in web sites and books and media that Iraq has WMD? Yes it and all was false as we later learned but it was used massive everywhere including Wikipedia. Why then video material that clearly show what happens in some situations is not a valid source can you explain, is it only because it is not a part of some web site that have text to accompanying it? Thank you for explaining your stance but for fact sake you need to talk about facts and not about your thoughts what should be and what is not acceptable to use as reference without explaining what content in reference is not accurate. You can say that videos are unreliable but tell me why after looking them or go to Talk page of article and start discussion and ask what do you need to know about video materials if there is anything that you don't understand in them I will gladly help. So if we are going to discuss material content then lets talk about it, but to remove references only because it is video material posted on YouTube is not right. We do not breach copyright with those documentary clips made by users so lets talk with arguments and facts considering concrete case - Mujahedeen and Bosnia war. Best regards 178.149.25.175 (talk) 18:16, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
- Videos not uploaded by the original producer cannot be used as references on Wikipedia because there is a copyright concern (see WP:VIDEOREF.) There are also a few problems with your edits. First, this part of the article is not written in proper English. Second, one of the references is not in English. Third, the addition is written in a confusing way. For these reasons I am going to revert your edit. Please don't undo my reversion because if you do that this will have the potential to turn into an edit war (which I don't want to happen). Please note that I am not labeling your edits as vandalism (they are in good faith) but before re-instating these edits please make the changes I have asked for. If you would like help fixing your addition to comply with policy I would be happy to help. Best, Ethan. Eteethan(talk) 20:06, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
