BLP violation

edit

I've removed your BLP violation[1]. This seems to be an ongoing problem with you, based on previous comments. If you commit another BLP violation, you will be banned from discussing BLP material here under WP:BLPBAN and/or indef blocked. This is your final warning.

That contribution is a BLP violation why? The article has RS indicating Ping Fu has made false statements [Ping_Fu#Memoir]. While I'm not quite getting the intent of LarryTr7 posting the set of links they did, it's hard to see them as BLP violation. NE Ent 11:24, 19 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Clearly people here are mixing up BLP violation with negative comments. Even reliable sources of information do not matter any more. What has this page become! LarryTr7 (talk) 02:29, 22 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • I don't doubt your sincerity, and you are providing diffs which is helpful and I hope they will discuss it with you. Honestly, it is a lot easier to do so the way you presented your last info, just facts and sources without making claims, in a professional manner. Thank you. When dealing with BLPs, living humans, we are always going to be exceedingly careful about what is and isn't acceptable. My comments about your tone shouldn't be seen as questioning the validity of your information. Dennis Brown - - © - @ - Join WER 03:06, 22 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Larry, I feel like you aren't paying attention. This edit had two problems, a BLP violation, and you attemtped to use a letter to the editor as a source for another fact. I would think you've been warned sufficiently on these points, and I'm not likely to keep warning. NE Ent has asked for more patience, but I'm running out.

  • What BLP violation, and a more careful review of the link is in order -- none of the letters reference Ping Fu: the link contains the following:

Corrections

The December cover story on Ping Fu, founder of software company Geomagic, overstated the company's revenue when it cited a figure of $30 million. The source for the figure, a member of the company's board of directors, was offering an opinion about Geomagic's long-term potential. Geomagic has declined to give an accurate revenue figure for 2005 but acknowledges that its revenue was significantly lower than the figure printed in Inc. Additionally, the undergraduate degree Ping earned in China was in literature, not English as a second language.

  • I didn't see any citation for that paragraph that he added. Even if it was covered in another citation, when adding a paragraph that is this strong, at least one citation should accompany the paragraph at the end, even if it is a repeat of a previous citation. Maybe it is an issue of how it was formatted, but I usually assume someone knows how to format a citation when they are busy adding so much material and their citations have been discussed at length previously.

Blocked for sockpuppetry

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

LarryTr7 (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I am not using multiple accounts any more. On the other hand, please investigate whether King of Hearts and Fearofreprisal are using the same IP address.

Decline reason:

Attempting to undermine the blocking administrator by making claims of sockpuppetry won't help, nor will the kind of accusations you made in your UTRS request.—Kww(talk) 17:59, 15 June 2013 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

Multiple account use happened months ago, and blocking has been served. Other accounts were never used after that period of blocking. Please review account activities according to time. LarryTr7 (talk) 06:26, 16 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Accept reason:

While I still think it's possible to likely that LarryTr7 is socking, I must admit that the evidence is not conclusive and we should presume innocent unless proven guilty. King of 00:03, 2 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • What's this AhChoy13002 account? It's not among those I have used before (listed below). Please verify its IP.
  • I filed the sockpuppet investigation, as you would be able to see if you went looking for it. As for Fearofreprisal, they do have a talk page - you're linking to article space, not userspace. As to your comments about Fearofreprisal and King of Hearts needing checking - I can categorically say they are not the same user (after all, why would King of Hearts need a sockpuppet?) Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 07:57, 21 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Thanks for your comment, Lukeno94. I agree now that Fearofreprisal and King of Hearts are not likely to be from same person. I am trying to learn more about how to work with Wikipedia. The remaining question is the last one I posted: how come Ahchoy13002 has been attributed to my account, which is equivalent to: how was the blocking triggered this time? LarryTr7 (talk) 03:51, 23 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Wondering how to improve this kind of sock-checking. There should be no reason to assign any unwelcome account to a known 'bad' one, without any evidence. This time I am surprised by the assignment of user account Wwwdotwww. I have to say the technical method in this process is pretty much a failure. LarryTr7 (talk) 06:45, 17 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
