Note on Continued AbuseHi FreeRangeFrog, I noticed you asked a user previously to stop editing the Tony Jones Theologian page without citing proper sources, as he seemingly was seeking to add inflammatory content. He recently tried to claim Jones was not the Theologian in Residence at Solomon's Porch church, but this fact is cited all over including a Minneapolis Post article about the church, as well as references from multiple universities and publishers. I removed the dubious note (not sure if this is correct) and suggested to the user that he must provide a source that shows Jones is no longer the Theologian in Residence. I wanted to draw your attention to possible further abuses on this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.154.69.239 (talk) 15:26, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

Adding properly referenced information to Tony Jones (theologian)Hi FreeRangeFrog, can you help me edit Tony Jones (theologian) so that it contains appropriately worded and sourced information? I tried to add some, but it was removed very quickly. I'd prefer to edit it to improve it, but I don't want to fall afoul of the 3 revert rule.121.45.218.89 (talk) 19:11, 14 January 2015 (UTC) I've pasted the content and references that were removed at Talk:Tony_Jones_(theologian)#Adding_properly_referenced_information_to_Tony_Jones_.28theologian.29 so people can help me edit it. 121.45.218.89 (talk) 19:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
I think I've come up with a factual statement based on reliable sources (court documents). I'd like to get consensus before proposing an edit. What do you think of the edit at the end of Talk:Tony_Jones_(theologian)#Statement_on_Court_Case_duration_from_Court_Documents — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.45.218.89 (talk) 20:23, 14 January 2015 (UTC) Ok, let's try again: Per Wikipedia:Verifiability#Self-published_and_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves, I'd like to use the blog posts on the talk page, and perhaps other posts of Tony's, for information about himself. How do you feel about this? 121.45.218.89 (talk) 20:58, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
Ribbit. It appears that an IP-hopper who is repeatedly copying and pasting my post to User talk: Jimbo Wales (and misconstruing it as an illustration of how Wikipedia is such a terribly corrupt place) is now trying to game the system by spamming every possible admin in order to claim that they are involved. I am guessing that the IPs are sockpuppets for a banned user, but I don't know who. The IP is apparently now trying to put every admin on report to the stewards. Maybe the stewards can globally block the IPs. Ribbit. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:59, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Eliminating the Michael Parker edits from the Satin articleDear FreeRangeFrog, - Thank you again for offering to eliminate all of Michael W. Parker's edits from the Mark Satin FA. I have now reviewed all 23 of them and must conclude that it would be good - no, great - if you did so. Because I do not want to be seen as "owning" the Satin article, I feel I should share with you my reasons for wanting each of the edits reverted: XX.) Please note that on Jan. 15 at 21:58, NeilN properly restored the Ben Franklin picture and caption. (Parker had been so incensed that draft evader Satin made use of a patriot like Franklin in his Radical Middle book, that he eliminated the image and caption.) 1 - 10.) Ten edits stretching from 21:11 on Jan. 9 through 9:22 on Jan. 14. These all consist of Parker's attempts to alter the Assessment section to reflect his antagonism toward Satin's draft evasion. By now they have all been reverted (by four different editors). Edits #11 - 23 were all created on Jan. 14. They should all be eliminated except the last (which I can restore if eliminating them all would be easier for you). 11.) 11:10. The word "militant" is not only not libelous of one of the fiercest (and best) polemicists in U.S. journalism, it is actually tamer than the words the source used ("nastiness" and "attack-dog mentality"). In the context here, it should not make anyone think of AK-47s or ISIS types. 12.) 17:10. Parker's "empty brackets" relate to a plural "s" that had been correctly edited out of a complex sentence that was being quoted. Like many of Parker's subsequent edits, this one appears to reflect a sincere misstep and / or unfamiliarity with the source material. 13.) 19:53. Overlinking (an ever-present danger in this article, addressed during the FA process in 2011) ... no need to link to the U.S. Constitution in this context. 14.) 19:57. Mention of the Vietnam War is turned into a link to the Vietnam Memorial. 15.) 20:00. No need to create an internal link to SDS here, since it had already been linked two paragraphs earlier. 16.) 20:04. Overlinking, this time to "racial discrimination." 17.) 20:07. Link to a publisher. On 1 Jan, 2015, possibly in anticipation of this article being summarized and linked on the Main Page, Colonies Chris eliminated virtually all the links to commercial and academic publishers (a couple of dozen), and on 4 Jan I eliminated the rest. We need to be consistent here. 18.) 20:25. The "a" is necessary here since there is no one "post-liberal, post-Marxist politics." 19.) 20:32. Removal of an ellipse from a direct quote. Perhaps Parker did not understand its function. 20.) 20:39. Overlinking again. The word "hippies," not even the subject of the sentence here. 21.) 21.01. The reference here is to the idea of New Age politics, not to anything entitled "New Age Politics." 22.) 21:04. More overlinking - "military intervention." Moreover, the entire phrase is "humanitarian military intervention," and the phrase appears in a direct quote. 23.) 21:16. This edit belongs, an addition of two commas. I will re-insert them if it's more convenient for you to revert everything at once. If you feel more of Parker's edits should stay, I will defer to your judgment. But I am confident I handled them properly. Again, I appreciate - more than I can say - your good offices here. - Babel41 (talk) 01:28, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Thasnai SethasereeHi, The page "Thasnai Sethaseree" can be edited if it is not written in the right format. But it should not be deleted due to the reason of advertising or promotional aspect. (Thasnai (talk) 17:55, 18 January 2015 (UTC)).
Hi FreeRangeFrog. I'm probably becoming quite a pest by now, but wanted to let you know I shared a draft on the Talk page of this article and there is an ongoing discussion (we talked about this article on your Talk page previously). I also started a string at the BLP Noticeboard. So far there is consensus that the current controversy is excessive, but not regarding whether the controversy should have a separate article or be consolidated to Bresch's page. CorporateM (Talk) 22:27, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Hey FreeRange. The discussion about the controversy has died down, but I'm expecting significantly less interest in the rest of the page, which is not so exciting I suppose. I was wondering if you still had some time to take a look at stuff. CorporateM (Talk) 00:52, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
Deletion of my page Utsav LalHi, I just realised that my page containing biography of living person Utsav Lal has been deleted or proposed for deletion ( not sure which one is currently the status). The reason indicated seems to be not enough references to substantiate information.I am totally unsure why this should have come up since multiple external links and facts were added to my page to substantiate all information. In case, thee was something that did not still have references, I can add links or edit. Request if you can advise on what needs to be done now.I would like to edit the page as per the wikipedia guidelines and restore but am unable to do anything. Alternatively, can I set up a new page.

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. OPNsenseHi FreeRangeForg, Yesterday I created an article about OPNsense a FreeBSD router/firewall project similar to m0n0wall and pfSense. The content of the page was setup just as other BSD related projects. The project itself is licensed under the 2-clause BSD license. As frequent user of Wikipedia i find it a bit disturbing that this article was deleted as others will need to use general search options other than on the wiki to compare the different projects. I can't imagine why only half of the BSD based router/firewall story can be told.. to me that is just an incomplete encyclopedia. I do understand there are rules for placing an article, but instead of deleting it perhaps you can help to improve it so it can be listed? Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read my message... you probably get a lot of these request. Best regards, Joswp (talk) 07:28, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi FreeRangeFrog, Thank you very much for you help, I understand the issue with the article and will improve it. Thumbs up!

CoffeeFestDear FreeRangeFrog, Thank you for reviewing our first contribution to Wikipedia as content creators. We are a small company that tries to satisfy needs, mostly in education space. I am persdonally a university professor and teaching and coaching is my raison d'êtree. The CoffeeFest is our first foray in the commercial space, but even there, education is an important component. Namely, our CoffeeFest objective is to inform, entertain and educate visitors. And for manufacturers to inform potential users of their products. And for baristas this is the only place in Serbia where they can get regular training free of charge. Based on the above, are we a commercial outfit, yes we are. But we are socially responsible and our goal is to provide service, and if the users are happy, we can make some income. After your deletion, I went to review some similar events as described on Wiki: [[3]] and I do believe that we are by far less commercial and more socially aware. There is one aspect that you are right. We have included a number of external and Wiki links as references (like in Literature in a scientific paper) but have not indexed them in the text. I asked my colleagues to make changes and link the items we describe/mention to the outside, verifiable sources. With those corrections, I hope that our contribution would be acceptable. May I ask you, if you care, to comment and help us on our journey through submitting this first contribution to Wikipedia.

fehmarnfestivalSorry for violating your regulations with my article "Fehmarnfestival". Originally I just want to fit a (missing) picture of the battle of Segale to complete the Wikipedia article of "Battle of Segale". According to your regulations I first had to write 10 articles before I´m allowed to upload a pictutre. Thats why I wrote about Fehmarn, because it was the first big German Rock Open Air Festival and as the German Woodsrock its evidence for beeing published should be big enaugh! May you publish it again without the link to the homepage? (I still don´t have any copy.) Or do you see another way to shorten publishing my picture and article of the battle of Segale, while I send it first to you?

Pakistan Advertisers SocietyHello, @FreeRangeFrogwant i want to know what was the main thing that was wrong in the article? It is necessary to make this article and since this is not the first time i am making an article. But i never know that what makes any article promotional? (Please don't suggest me to any reading section, if you yourself define it that would me more appropriate!) Since its about Society/Organization that promotes advertising i had to write about that. Can you point out please? And i am offended with such speedy deletion, because i am not given at least a day to make amends. This is really unfair, if article was promotional you should have given me a chance. I am making this article again and i think i know which points i have to take out which i previously put in the page. Fushan007Talk 11:21. 4 February 2015 (UTC).

Care Transitions Intervention DeletedHello, The draft that I created on Care Transitions Intervention was deleted and I was hoping to have this reversed. I understand that it was denied for publishing due to it seeming too much like an advertisement, but I believe this can be fixed with some editing and I would appreciate the opportunity to do so. In the comments left by kikichugirl on February 2, I was informed that I would be able to edit the submission and was encouraged to do so, however when I went back to edit it I found it had been deleted the next day, February 3.

Deletion of page Kneser-Ney SmoothingHi I was recently informed that my page on Kneser-Ney Smoothing was deleted by you this morning due to a copyright violation of the following website: http://www.donehealth.com/new-best-kneser-ney-smoothing.html. If you go to this link, you'll notice that the content is the exact same as what I had posted when I created the article. It also includes my Wikipedia username: ShreyaB94, which I find odd that a health website would have. I believe this is not a legitimate website but instead a web crawler that takes the content of hundreds of Wikipedia posts and puts it on their page so that it would seem as if the creator of the Wikipedia page had violated a copyright. I would like to contest the deletion of this page - this is indeed my content that was plagiarized by this website. ShreyaB94 (talk) 19:12, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
Undeletion of User:Sphilippian, then move of User:Sphilippian to User:Sphilippian/sandboxHello, FreeRangeFrog! Could you please undelete User:Sphilippian, revert to the revision just before it was CSD'd, move it to User:Sphilippian/sandbox, and add a sandbox header at the top? It's content that is appropriate for a sandbox, I am pretty darn sure. ApparatumLover (talk) 15:42, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

It's not web hosting, it was supposed to be an article about something I made up. You can continue to disagree with me, but I might go to WP:REFUND to see if other admins move it to my old account's sandbox. ––ApparatumLover (talk) 16:15, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

The CUS pagesDear FreeRangeFrog, thank you for taking an interest in my recent contribution to the CUS page. I can provide extensive referencing for these claims, many of which will be in a (hopefully) forthcoming article on CUS. I implore you to undo your undo, or at least undo the entire content of the CUS page, as it too has no citation. I was responding mainly to the original content which made a serious mistake: seeing CASA as part of the continuing legacy of national student organizations in Canada. The CUS pages have tremendous potential for expansion. I don't think it very useful to undo what little content there is. I also intend to provide citation when my work is published. If you are really concerned with the lack of citation, you may want to censor the page of the Ontario Undergraduate Student Alliance. I recently added a large section on the early history of this organization, with full documentation and citation and it was undone and replaced with a highly partial statement - all without any citation. If you could intercede here for me, I much appreciate it. I also would like to have my edit restored immediately. Please let me know the outcomes... sincerely, LSesomLSesom (talk) 20:27, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
WP:AE reportHi. You may wish to comment here: [5], as you have interacted with the user in question. Regards, Grandmaster 21:05, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
Frogs have short memory?In case you forgot, your last words on the talk were ["now the question is whether or not you can manage to insert that in an appropriate manner"]. And in case you didn't bother to check, this time I changed the phrase you had a problem with and inserted the sources you requested. Unless you have any further issues, please undo your edit. --Steverci (talk) 21:45, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
Deletion of Virtual Private Cloud OnDemand pageHi there. Was wondering if you could give specifics as to why you chose to delete the Virtual Private Cloud OnDemand page (see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Private_Cloud_OnDemand). I'm a user of the service and thought I'd put up an entry for it, as other services I use have entries like AWS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Web_Services) and Azure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Azure). Admittedly I'm new to Wikipedia, but I believe I followed the new entry criteria of providing third-party references to the service as well as staying away from it being promotional at all. Would like to hear your reasons. Thank you Clembk (talk) 17:00, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of Lorex Technology Inc.Hello, With regards to your deleting Lorex Technology Inc., I am unclear on the criteria used to establish encyclopaedic value, and further how the content could have been considered to be in violation of the following: (A7: No credible indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content, events)) Many Wikipedia pages that provide the history of an organization do not demonstrate any more credible indication of the company's importance or the significance of its leadership figures. I can point to other Wikis from related companies that publish facts of far lesser significance to the nature of the company being discussed let alone any kind of innate importance in general. I invite you to examine the links below and provide any excerpt that would nominate these Wikis as being somehow more important or less promotional: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dropcam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nest_Labs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLIR_Systems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoPro I direct your attention specifically to the GoPro Wiki, which has been marked for its semblance to an advertisement but has not been deleted. I am curious why there is a division in the treatment of content when nothing on the Lorex Technology Inc. page discussed the quality or usefulness of products the company sells. Any objective history of any organization evidenced by official sources such as public press releases and financial assessments and not by promotional content or marketing-driven assessments of the product should qualify as having encyclopaedic value. Please advise how I can proceed in getting the Lorex Technology Inc. page back online. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex2230 (talk • contribs) 21:08, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
Starting CoderDojo page from Scratchhello, I see you were the last to delete the CoderDojo page.

Your draft article, Draft:ZxaylisHello FreeRangeFrog. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Zxaylis". The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing.

Rick RossAll I did was copy and paste a section from further down in the article to complete it, which you will be able to confirm easy. That intro section did not have a citation in the first place, I should have added one. I am going to reverse the change you made while adding the citation, which will be easy as it's already down there somewhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abracadabra777 (talk • contribs) 01:10, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
No you're totally right it was a dumb move but there wasn't one there before me so I just didn't think. It's crazy story right. This guy kidnaps this kid with his mother's permission to rescue him from this cult, they do this whole trial, bankrupts the guy, ruins his reputation, then a year later, settles for 5K and 200 hours of his help.

ActivTrakHello! Is it possible to undelete ActivTrak and edit it according to rules? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Antonseidler (talk • contribs) 09:31, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
I work for the company. But as you can see from the log (probably) article was mostly created by other contributors. I did some most recent changes, like providing some technical details, OS support, etc. Personally, I don't see much difference in a way how ActivTrak was written comparing to other articles about the same kind of software: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpectorSoft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awareness_Technologies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclope-Series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retina-X_Studios However, I do respect your opinion.

Request for undeletionHi You removed my page. I understand that guidelines were flouted and I logged in to correct those. Please reinstate the page. I will make sure it remains an encyclopedia page with only relevant information and no peacock terms or other violations being talked about. I would be really obliged if that happens. If not, would you please help me retrieve the content. I am sorry I am new to Wikipedia editing and it confuses me a little. Hope you will get to read this and send me a reply soon. Thanks!

This is regarding the page Air Pegasus that you "Userified" per request in September 2014. Another editor has gone ahead and built a new page about the same airline now. The airline in question has still not commenced operations but has since inched closer to starting operations (in a month or so from now probably). My question is, what is the proper way of Including text present on my user page into this article? Do I move it to article space first and merge it with this other article? or simply cut and paste my text into the newer article? Do we need to somehow preserve the older revision history of the article currently in my userspace? Please help. Thanks Trinidade (talk) 06:55, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
