Museum hacks and museum edits

Hello there!

CSI: Cyber

To avoid edit warring, could I ask you for a favor? Nothing to do with WP:Canvass. Callmemirela (Talk) ♑ 21:13, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

@Callmemirela: I'm a little confused -- I'm not sure what I can do to help -- but feel free to ask. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 21:28, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Since you have edited on CSI: Cyber (I saw one edit you made), there's conflict over one edit. One user added that the second season of the show will have 22 episodes. However, the website is Australian and I wasn't able to access it being from Canada. If you live in or are outside of the States, you would mind checking if this confirms the said content from the user? Thanks, Callmemirela (Talk) ♑ 21:32, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

@Callmemirela: I live in the United States, and also can't access the video. I did an admittedly quick search for other sources, and found nothing except [1], which references a NON-reliable source on Youtube. Sorry I can't be of more help. --Larry/Traveling_Man (talk) 21:49, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Oh, no. You've been more help than you think. I am tempted to remove the content. I mean, no news about this on TV sources? I find that suspicious. Normally, TVbytheNumbers, The Futon Critic, etc. report everything. I'll try to search through Google for confirmation. Thank you for your help, Callmemirela (Talk) ♑ 21:57, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Could you please stop implying or hinting that User:Lucd13 is lying? Furthermore stop edit warring and canvassing to win your point. I will not hesitate to report you if you do not stop. You are warned. Caden ^cool 22:53, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

@Caden: Where exactly is the implied statement that I am saying Lucd13 is lying? Have you read my messages? I said I found it suspicious and I would search for sources. Did you read that? I have not even touched the article for two hours; how am I edit warring now? Exactly how am I canvassing to win my point? Asking for confirmation is not canvassing... Secondly, please don't disturb this user. If you have an issue, speak with me. Callmemirela (Talk) ♑ 23:22, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for reverting the edits to the Canyons pages made the other day. As you commented, Bryce and Cedar Breaks are not really Canyons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mi cuenta (talk • contribs) 05:22, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Talkback

Hello. My talk page has a banner that says "Hello, ETO Buff. You have new messages at Traveling Man's talk page." but I don't see my name or anything to me on your talk page. Please let me know if you have something for me. Thank you. ETO Buff (talk) 08:35, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Hey, dear! DavidStarIsrael7 published new reliable references for the restoration of the article Rodrigo Silva.

Please help us restore the article. We want to make it grow! We believe that the exclusion of the past was a mistake, because there are numerous references about the famous archaeologist. We need your help! Thank you! --MilenaSword1 (talk) 00:58, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Deletion review/Log/2018 April 29

Deleting relevant content.

Why do you keep deleting the actual content I’m posting? I get it, I can’t cite from certain sites. I reposted the content (which doesn’t even need a reference in the first place) without the referenced website, then you edited the wrong version and YOU added the citation again. Then, you went back and deleted everything I put again. Why not just delete the disallowed citation? You are doing this site a disservice by arbitrarily deleting pertinent and relevant content that is helpful to readers. If you want to delete the website I referred to that’s fine, quit deleting the valuable information I am posting. Thank you. Bmr1052 (talk) 21:38, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Erroneous Editing/revisions

Hello. Rather than go back and forth about your need to continue to knowingly erase valuable content, I will advise you to refer to the link below regarding Edit Warring. As part of my due diligence, I urge you to read and consider the information in the link as it is my last resort before I file a request for administrative involvement on the Edit war/3RR noticeboard. Your talk page has numerous messages about you arbitrarily removing content that is relevant to the specific page simply because you think it shouldn't be there, so this appears to be something of a reoccurring theme.
