The 30 round clip is not a Beretta product, it is an aftermarket product by another producer of magazines. That 30 round product is advertising on this web page. Wikipedia needs to rewrite and follow its own guidelines on advertising.Midnightvisions (talk) 12:12, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello. I have removed the content you added to this article, as it violated Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons. The claims you added were sourced to Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura and Coast to Coast AM, neither of which can be considered reliable sources by Wikipedia guidelines. Any negative allegations about a living person, and particularly allegations which might be libellous, must be supported by references to indisputably reliable sources, or they will be removed.

The source of that information was written in the article, that information came from the united nations task force, that Maurice Strong worked on, from his co worker, easily referenced by a google search and several other wiki pages. This information was covered by coast to coast am and conspiracy theory, was accurate and true. Wikipedia needs to rewrite its reliable sources section so that pertinent and accurate information isn't deleted by novice wiki editors!Midnightvisions (talk) 12:16, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Adminhelp with Removal of signature image from Maria Sharapova edit
{{adminhelp}} See this page on Maria Sharapova https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Sharapova Why is her signature displayed on this page? Displaying her signature will only cause an increase of fraudulent merchandise. Her signature needs to be removed.Midnightvisions (talk) 21:09, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
- You can post to a suitable forum, maybe Wikipedia:Village pump (policy) about the general issue you're raising, to seek consensus about not doing this. Until then, there are numerous articles with the subject's signature on display, and cherry picking the removal of this one is not warranted. FWIW, I think you have a point and I also think that displaying a person's signature adds very litle to an article, such that their removal out of the concern you've raised would not have to be balanced against any great loss to encyclopedic content. Note the essay referring to the practice of including such signatures, at Wikipedia:Signatures of living persons. Best regards--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 22:08, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
