Some questions to the singlechart templateI just wanted to try to understand the kind of technical things you are using in Template:Singlechart for maybe being able to edit it later by disassembling all parts of the template, but I finally failed. Template:Singlechart/chartnote for example is a macro that made me get really confused as I totally understand nothing what a macro contains. I also got confused trying to edit the sandbox as my changes were not saved and it instead showed an error which I could not understand. So, I tried to copy the template into my userspace (User:Ali1610/Template:Singlechart to edit it but it just displays nothing, what depends on some missing other linked templates, I suppose? So how to get into this template or at least how to understand it? :S --Ali1610 (talk) 15:22, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

The user linked has been removing a picture of Christina Aguilera unnecessarily on "Birthday Cake (song)". (The difference is: before and after). I have reverted him twice: the first time my edit summary/reason was that it was unexplained, the second time I reverted and posted on his talk page here with a warning explaining why it should not be removed. He has reverted me three times, and says that the picture is spamming the article, and thus is on the 3RR borderline. He doesn't understand that the mention of a singer, or anyone/anything, means that it is allowed to be included and is allowed to stay. It was heavily reported that Aguilera was on the remix, fuelled by Rihanna's actions. Instead of me reverting him for a third time, I am asking you to put the picture back in the article and take whatever action you feel necessary on User:Loginnigol. — AARON • TALK 18:30, 8 May 2013 (UTC) Reporting User:Calvin999This person is trying to insert picture of a person in Birthday Cake (song) page even though the picture has no factual relevance to the subject. --Loginnigol (talk) 23:42, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Let There Be Love (Christina Aguilera song) [To save edit warring...]How is it "completely" detailed?? It's one short sentence saying when it broke into the top 10, and one sentence about how when it charted at number 5, it spent each of the next four weeks rising by one position. Hardly a trajectory. I haven't written "The following week, it rose by one position to X" four times over. It's not like I have given a trajectory of the entire 3 months that it has been charting, I could understand I had (Not that I would do that anyway...) Look at the section, it's tiny. All I talk about is the debut, the top 10, the top 5 and the number one position. Nowhere does it say on WP:CHARTTRAJ that you can't mention these things. I'm surprised you're making an issue out of something as small as this... If anything, you've made it worse, because now all there is is the debut in mid Feb, and the peak at the end of May. There is nothing in between, it gives no insight to what happened in the time between mid Feb and end of May. — AARON • TALK 23:43, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Edit war with User:SuperVirtualHi, I am in the middle of an edit war with another editor and I need an admin to intervene. Firstly with the article Walk (Foo Fighters song). User:SuperVirtual keeps on adding information that is not directly supported by the source he is using. He is stating that the song was only released in Germany and quoting a linked source to the German iTunes page for the song. Apart from the fact that the song is available to down load pretty much in any country in the world, the source he is quoting does not specifically say that the song was released exclusively in Germany - and is therefore in breach of Wikipedia:No original research#Synthesis of published material that advances a position. I only speak a little German myself but can tell that the source does not give this information. Just to make sure I have requested, as per Wikipedia:Verifiability#Citing non-English sources, that the said user give a quotation of relevant portions of the original source be provided, either in text, in a footnote, or on the article talk page. OK, the next article, also a song by the same rock band is Arlandria (song), in which the same user is stating that the song was the second single from the affiliated album, in the United Kingdom. Again he quotes the UK iTunes page as a source, but again there is nothing in the source that says that the song was released as the second single in the UK, and is therefore again in breach of Wikipedia:No original research#Synthesis of published material that advances a position. Further more I have given reliable news sources that say that the song is infact the third single: [1] and [2]. I have tried discussing this with the said user on both of the articles talk pages, yet he wants to turn it into an edit war. The user also appears to be Italian and has a poor grasp of the English language when attempting to discuss the issue. Please can you intervene. Many thanks.QuintusPetillius (talk) 16:37, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

French singles chart archivesHey. Out of interest, do you happen to know if there's a French singles chart archive for positions prior to 1994? Although lescharts.com is very accurate and of proven reliabilty, it only goes back to this 1994, and the archive on the SNEP website only goes back to July 2001: I've been trying to search for Pink Floyd single positions to add here, and most of them occurred before '94. I spotted this at InfoDisc, which isn't listed here, claiming to list the single positions from August 1955 to December 2009, in a similar layout to their albums archive. However, whilst the accuracy of InfoDisc's albums archive seems to be perfect when the positions it lists for certain albums are identical at both InfoDisc and lescharts.com (see Nelly for an example) the singles positions do not match at all in many cases in both archives (in Pink Floyd's case, compare "Take It Back" and "High Hopes"), and even seem to list positions for songs not released as singles at all, in the days before digital downloads made this possible (see "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" and "Pigs on the Wing", as well as their chart dates). As a result, I seriously doubt its reliability. If you know if InfoDisc's singles information is reliable or not, or if there is a better archive for positions before 1994 that I have missed, I'd greatly appreciate your help. If not, I'm sorry to have bothered you. Keep up the fine work! I Am Rufus • Conversation is a beautiful thing. 16:47, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Explaining rules to adminKww, evidently, you're unclear on Wikipedia policy despite being an administrator. But when another editor has some suspicion that a revert will lead to edit warring (as was clear here [4] where I reverted the information as factual with a source because it was removed as untrue), it is up to that individual who knows full well his actions are contentious to initiate the discussion on the talk page and refrain from reverting otherwise it is belligerent and acting in opposition to policy. Doniago has engaged in similar behaviors of this nature in the past on American Dad related articles, one of which he even had to revert himself on his own edit because it was unconstructive (as shown here [5] and here [6] ). Since you seem to be unclear on Wikipedia, despite being an administrator, I've copy and pasted the following and bolded it for you, located here:

Hi Kevin, we have this article Italo disco which I strongly believe should be about a term rather than a genre. The main editor of the article insists on believing that it's a genre, not a term. This term was invented to refer to Italian based (mostly English sung) synthpop/new wave dance projects of the '80s. I was wondering if you'd have any knowledge about the topic and would like to comment in this thread that I opened up. By the way, most of the article is unsourced, and has been tagged as unreferenced since 2011.--Harout72 (talk) 06:44, 14 June 2013 (UTC) SinglechartCan you take a look at the singlechart usage on Sweater Weather and tell me what's wrong?

EarwigBot operator / talk 13:08, 17 June 2013 (UTC) Rusted Auto PartsI do admit that he has a weakness against the third-revert rule and sometimes being civil. I told him off that personally. But I do feel like pointing out that he is not always a bad contributor though. He's a good updater on articles related to notable death etc. It's sad to see him go because he really does love to contribute. I feel that a weekly block or something to just let him cool off might be better. Also I am hoping that he would promise something that he hopefully will keep (that I recommended to him). I might just need to be there to probably warn him that he goes too far. He might just listen to me and I am willing to do that. Jhenderson 777 14:13, 17 June 2013 (UTC) TalkbackHello, Kww.

RFC HelpI am trying to set up a request for comment on the notability of schools. I use the GNG for WP:ORG which states "No company or organization is considered inherently notable. No organization is exempt from this requirement, no matter what kind of organization it is" we also require WP:RS to verify this. Unfortunately often at AFD ( Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Port Moresby International High School ) is a good example of the types of arguments made. I personally think this is crap and I want to get more discussion on it. the RFC page is a little confusing so I was wondering if you could help me or point me to someone who can help me set it up?

I appreciate your thoughts and it may well just be a moral victory but if we can use that discussion to at least prod an admin to think about the substance of the article rather then the number of keeps or deletes we will have at least gained a little.

List of songs recorded by Drake BellHi there. I noticed that you recently made a major edit on List of songs recorded by Drake Bell. I think what you did was great (removing all unsourced material), but I personally think that was just a little too big, because most of the unsourced songs that are not on any album actually do exist. Would you like to maybe reconsider reverting your edit and help out adding references to those songs that you removed? Thanks!

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. Re Self Control other versionsFine - when time permits I will restore the list with the versions for which sources are available. It's not a question of my "wanting it back": comprehensive information on various versions should as much as reasonably possible be featured in any article on a song, and is more likely to interest interested parties than the minutia of the formats of release for the versions discussed in the body of this article. And I honestly fail to see why the lack of sources justifies deletion rather than tagging with the "unreferenced secton" template - if that template shouldn't be used in this instance then what is it for? The "Dealing with unsourced material" section of WP:CITE states: "If an article is unreferenced, you can tag it with the unreferenced template, so long as it is not nonsensical or a biography of a living person, in which case request admin assistance. If a claim is doubtful but not harmful, use the citation needed template, which will add an inline tag, but remember to go back and remove the claim if no source is produced within a reasonable time. If a claim is doubtful and harmful, remove it from the article. You may want to move it to the talk page and ask for a source, unless it is very harmful or absurd, in which case it should not be posted to the talk page either. Use your common sense. All unsourced and poorly sourced contentious material about living persons must be removed from articles and talk pages immediately." That's Wikipedia's stated policy on "Dealing with unsourced material". And there's nothing to support instant deletion of material such as the Other versions section of the Self Control article.--Cherrylimerickey (talk) 03:01, 21 June 2013 (UTC) I don't dispute that "Any material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed": however as WP:CITE explains in a case such as the Other versions section of the Self Control article - which is not the biography of a living person - not being sourced, resolving the issue via tagging as unreferenced section should have been attempted prior to removal. Again - if that template shouldn't be used in this instance then what is it for?--Cherrylimerickey (talk) 03:40, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Deneuve15 (talk) 20:48, 3 July 2013 (UTC) I stated that 20 years old sounds a bit old for Lana to have in fact started her career since 2005 was her beginning of her active career, although I'm well aware of the fact that she started writing at 18 years of age, there is no set year for this so it's possible it could have been 2004 but it seems no one knows for sure, however there is now an updated info saying "she signed her first recording contract when she was 22 years old with 5 Points Records in 2007", these references here were made in 2012, although the age from 2007 is not mentioned there but in one of the articles her age at the time still states as 25, do you know whether the birth date is 1985 as Deneuve15 keeps insisting or as recently mentioned in most articles these days 1986? I see the reason you blocked him is because he did not get consensus with the birth date, and really birth dates shouldn't be messed with, I wonder who started this rumour, personally I wouldn't be in here if it wasn't for the sudden changes a week after her birthday.

Diamonds was # 12 on editing a note on February and March (issue # 38) which featured three months of HOT100 because sometimes the Billboard Brazil used not to publish in January, perhaps for vacation and bring 2 or 3 months of Hot100 Airplay in the next edition. The position was # 15 in the April issue (number 39), which was related to HOT100 March. I would not edit the page Diamonds because someone had already placed at # 12, actually I opened to copy the similiar code to edit pages of other songs and clicked save wrongly. Finally, the problem is that sometimes the peak of the songs are not updated on the website of the American Billboard as the one you showed me or are updated with delays. The billboard Brazil is still young (4 years) and still thinks more on selling physical issue, ignoring a bit to put data HOT100 Brazil Airplay on the internet, unfortunately.

It's okay to put in the infobox tribal-electropop? I think it means electropop in tribal-style and that is incorrect to put tribal-electropop in the infobox because it does not exist as a genre.

Talkback - User talk:Launchballer#SinglechartHello, Kww. You have new messages at Launchballer's talk page.
Message added 18:17, 25 July 2013 (UTC) by Launchballer. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template. Eric Corbett unblocked[11] What an extremely sad, little person you must be. Corbett had been pointlessly blocked for ages and the decision to unblock was quite clearly for the benefit of the project. That project is something that most us are here to improve, not spend half our lives enforcing ridiculous rules and judgments. You really need to get over yourself - edits like this [12] make the project appear narrow minded, spiteful and downright pathetic. I recommend that you amend your ways and grow up - fast. Otherwise, find some other hobby in which to indulge you yourself. Giano 19:04, 25 July 2013 (UTC) Coulda at least came up with a better name. — Statυs (talk, contribs) 02:19, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

ThanksHey Kww, I know you're not especially happy with the state of VE, but I still wanted to thank you for the template hack to disable VE on a per-page basis.

ChicagoWiz 01:52, 31 July 2013 (UTC) RE: Translation helpIt is literally translated as "Hay una petición de comentarios en curso en cuanto a si el editor visual debería ser/estar* habilitado para nuevos usuarios y editores anónimos." It can be freely translated as "Hay una petición de comentarios en curso en la cual se discute si el editor visual debería ser/estar* habilitado para nuevos usuarios y editores anónimos." (There is an ongoing RFC in which is discussed if the Visual Editor should be enabled for new users and anonymous editors.) The "ser/estar*" verbs in this particular sentence have a little difference in their meaning (in Spanish, in English the meaning may vary), as both forms are grammatically correct. In my opinion, the difference between "debería ser" and "debería estar" is that the first means something like "it should be enabled"--it is not enabled but it should--and the later is like "it should have been enabled"--VE had to be enabled for all users, but it is only active for registered users. This Yahoo! Answers question can help you to understand more the difference between them. I think you are referring to "it is not enabled but it should", if it is the case I would suggest you to use "ser" and not "estar". I hope this helps you. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect?

Crazy Kids certificationSorry, but Crazy Kids is gold because it has sold 552,308 units, and the gold certification. Is when a dong sold 500,000, it's not my problem that RIAA dont update the new certifications, example: Ke$ha - Die Young sold 2,500,000 and in the RIAA's website there's no any certification for that song, the same with We R Who We R and Blow, but it's Ke$ha and we all know that songs habe certifications.

Greetings, Kww. I have volunteered to oversee and close the WP:RM discussion currently taking place at Talk:Chelsea Manning#Requested move. I have also agreed that, given the contentiousness of the issue, it would be good to have a panel of admins close the discussion as a committee. Your name was suggested in the discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure#Talk:Chelsea Manning#Requested move, and I would be quite pleased to have you involved, given your solid record in carrying out your adminship. I intend to draft a proposed closure once the RM has run its course, and present it to you and the third admin on the committee (I have asked User:BOZ also), for evaluation and revision. Please let me know if you are interested, and cheers! bd2412 T 02:24, 23 August 2013 (UTC)
Just a quick heads up that this discussion will close in about 12 hours. My plan is to close it right on time, put the headers and footers on, and indicate that the result is PENDING. I have updated my sandbox draft with the latest votes, and a brief summary of the rationale behind each vote (I think most of these are self-explanatory, but let me know if my abbreviations are too cryptic). Whenever all three of us are available thereafter, we can discuss and determine what consensus there is, and what it means. Given the breadth of this discussion, and the passion on both sides, I think we should try to come to a unanimous agreement on the closure if at all possible. Cheers! bd2412 T 03:37, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
Lindsay LohanGood day, kww! I noticed that on Aug. 5, you undid my addition of Oprah's Next Chapter to Lohan's television filmography. Your logic was that it was a talk show, which is not correct. You also stated that "talk shows are meant to promote films..." Actually, the project is a television series. Not a special, or a talk show. While I appreciate your input, this does belong in the section, and I was correct. It is not my intent to come across as rude, but I'm assuming you can relate to how frustrating it is to have legitimate edits "undone." I look forward to working along with you on future articles, including Miss Lohan's. However, if you could go to my talk page with the issue before undoing my edits, I would really appreciate it! It just really stinks to have your work vanish with a click, especially since its not like I posted libelous info. Things like filmography should be a little more open to discussion, in my opinion.

You may not consider her as a song-writer but officially she is. From her first studio album she writed 8 of the 10 songs that are on the abum. On her second studio album, she writed 8 of the 13 songs on the record, and 2 of the songs that she didn't write on that record are covers. On her first EP, she didn't write any song of the 6 songs and (one is a cover), because it was released as a promotional vehicle to promote er line of clothes nad its not even an full album. And on her third studio album she writed all of the songs except for one, wich is a cover. On her lastest recordwich will come out cotober 8, she writed the two songs that are out of the album, and she mentioned that she writed all of her songs on this record. So SHE IS an SINGER-SONGWRITER. For examples Birtney Spears or Selena Gomez are not one, because she write like 2 songs of her albums. --Raúl Romero (talk) 01:18, 6 September 2013 (UTC) oh and one more thing 4 of the 14 songs published under her name that aren't written by her are COVERS.

Please reconsiderKww, I am asking that you reconsider your proposed course of action (using common.js to suppress VisualEditor). Acting hastily to actively damage the experience of users, numbers of whom have repeatedly given anecdotes of better editing experiences using VisualEditor would be in violation of long-standing practice about not breaking the software, and be an exceptionally bad idea. Further, looking over your code and having quickly discussed with colleagues, we are extremely concerned that this will place a significant amount of strain on the servers, while not actually accomplishing what you're (presumably) aiming to do. I ask you as a partner in improving the project to consider not doing this. Your long experience as an admin here is noted, and I’ve always respected you - I’m dismayed that you’d consider this course of action when the WMF has expressed an interest in finding a compromise solution that would work. To pursue this without even considering compromise solutions, or reaching out to us, strikes me as unnecessarily adversarial. We are, and remain, open and willing to discuss actual solutions with the community. This one, though, is not one that we can support.

Possible RfCWhat do you reckon on User:Dpmuk/JamesForrester as an RfC?
Thanks for hiding VEThank you for the patch to hide VE, and that is the best "broken code" in the world: to allow opt-in after only one edit was a brilliant feat of engineering. I still believe if we pull together as a community, then we can improve many important aspects of the site. For example, most wp:edit-conflicts are simple to auto-merge, and the MediaWiki diff3.c utility could be easily modified to allow edits to adjacent lines without triggering "Edit conflict" (currently limited to 1-line separation). However, we need to set the edit-Save operation to perform a database read-lock on the page, because 2 edits within the same minute both read the same (unlocked) prior revision, and after the 1st editor merges to the prior revision, then the 2nd editor overwrites the 1st editor when he should have merged with the 1st editor's revision, waiting after a read-lock. Although WMF does not seem to care, numerous hot-topic articles and busy talk-pages get edit-conflicts, such as the Talk:Bradley_Manning page in recent weeks. Similarly, we could set the wp:expansion depth limit higher, such as 41/40 to 50 or more. There are many important simple changes we could make, if we take a stand to focus on major improvements, rather than push a complex tool (mis-)used by 3% of editors. -Wikid77 (talk) 05:41, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

You oversighted several edits to this article including addition of downtown redevelopment discussion and links to buildings articles from image captions. Please restore those edits and/ or undo your oversighting. If you want to undo the merge of content regarding Silver Lake that's fine. I can proceed with it once the AfD is completed if there are no objections (I haven't seen any) but you oversighting has disrupted both the AfD and the work improving the Fenton article. Notice for example that someone had to revise their comment in the discussion because you undid the merge by means of oversighting. If you have a content objection that's fine. And yes, you are correct that if/ when a merge is carried out the history has to be preserved. So if you have a substantive argument against doing that you should express it instead of carrying out unilateral action.

Legality of archive.is questionYou have raised the question of whether there is something illegal about archive.is. That raises the question of what law. US federal law? California or Florida law? WMF is subject to those, but there is no reason to think that archive.is is subject to them. We don't even know where it is. The TLD is in Iceland, and the domain is registered with the Icelandic registry, but its registered address is in Prague, Czech Republic, and one of its name servers is in Lichtenstein. Your concerns that the operation is strange are well taken. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:24, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
PodcastHi Kww, thanks for your comments. I invite you to be on the Wikipedia Weekly podcast next week to comment and clarify those issues that you brought up. The tracking of the chronology of all this, without real centralized, threaded discussion is incredibly tough, and we always work on the best information we have at the time that we can glean from things that are read after the fact. We welcome those who want to make their positions and interpretations clear. I would also like your views on how you view an understanding among the veteran editors, WMF employees, chapter participants and newbies can create what constitutes "community consensus." The "community consensus" phrase was used over and over again in the RFC to declare a quasi "will of the people," which was accepted as a trump card over WMF actions, without much pushback. But as I said on podcast, I'm very skeptical claiming this as a valid consensus that imbues individual actors with such authority. The community has more communications channels than ever, with constituents living in different geographical and virtual spaces. Without the implementation of a system of "public notice" and widespread engagement in debate and comment, in what way can "community consensus" be declared in any meaningful way on one set of pages in the corners of Wikipedia? How many people know how to navigate the labyrinth of RFC, Village Pump, Administrator's Noticeboard, Talk pages to understand the progression of these issues? (I will also note that pushback against the addition of "social media" features in Wikipedia by certain loud community voices may be a hindrance to getting a wider audience for determining consensus.) Also, in an era where every year sees fewer and fewer en: regulars, and administrator numbers dwindling, shouldn't the concerns of potential new editors be seriously taken into account, and their user experience in coming and staying? The only ones in the position to study this in any systematized way are the WMF and other NGO/academic partners (such as UNU-Merit, who did early user editor surveys). The mistrust of a small cache of power users of the WMF leaves some significant casualties: attracting potential editors, engaging new editors and retaining existing editors. After being in the editing community for ten years, I think the blasé view that the complicated technical editing environment and unfriendly community norms in Wikipedia is no big deal (and that it's OK to keep bozos out) is stronger than ever. And that's worrying. But I invite you to the dialogue. Let me know if you're interested. -- Fuzheado | Talk 17:39, 2 October 2013 (UTC) archive.is abuse filterIs blocking use of archive.org by newbies necessary?

I've got everything I need in order to improve any song article and I'm ready to continue what I've been doing so far, because I know it's the perfect way to improve song articles.

More than 1000 edits...More than 1000 edits and thanked 3 times ! What am I talking about ? I'm talking about this. I've continued editing Wikipedia, but on my language-speaking Wikipedia this time, and here are some proofs my edits are actually helpful & constructive : "tu apparais souvent dans ma liste de suivi, ce qui est une très bonne chose, c'est cool ce que tu as fait pour les classements." "continue ce que tu fais, je trouve finalement que je t'embête pour rien. Oui, c'est très bien ce que tu fais, j'ai beaucoup d'articles de chansons dans ma liste de suivi et je te vois tout le temps passer !" I imagine it can be quite hard to imagine this kind of situation, however this is the truth. This positive messages come from my talk page. While I've been editing here, I've been learning how to improve songs articles as efficiently as possible. Look at the differences before and after I've been improving each of these articles. Look at Bad (before/after), Macarena (before/after) or We No Speak Americano (before/after). This is what I'm really able to do ! This has nothing to do with my very first edits. Don't listen to other editors who missed an essential detail about me. I've been edting over 150 songs articles like this on the French-language and I can do the same on the English-speaking wiki without any problem. If everyone trust me, hundreds of songs articles would see the same benefits from my edits.

Lucy Liu Chinese nameHi there, I saw you reverted my edits on the Lucy Liu article. I thought there were sufficient source(s) to back up my edits. Here's an article from the Guardian, which states that she does have a Chinese name. And even though it doesn't provide the pinyin of her name, if you do a Google search, the majority of Chinese newspapers refer to her Chinese name. Maybe it's because Liu doesn't have a middle name - most American-born Chinese/Canadian-born Chinese people have their Chinese name as their middle names. But it doesn't negate the fact that she has a Chinese name. How do you argue Michael Chang and Connie Chung's Chinese names? Yes, their middle names are their Chinese names, but what about the characters? How do we know their Chinese names are those specific characters? I don't see any sources that prove that - unless you do a Google search and see Chinese newspapers actually use those names... Anyways, please let me know what you think. I apologize if I do appear to be aggressive/angry. This isn't an angry message - I just wanted another person's opinion. Thanks!--Guat6 (talk) 05:34, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

I wanted to let you know that I responded to your message on the Ramtha's School of Enlightenment discussion page. Another editor, Maproom, also thought that my version treated Ramtha as if he were real, though there is no concrete evidence to prove this, so I went ahead and made a few changes to my draft in places I thought you might be talking about. Will you please point out any other areas you're concerned about? Still, I'd like to share with you the same thing I told Maproom: My intent is certainly not to present Ramtha as if he is real, but instead to provide an accurate account of the school's teachings in a neutral way. In articles for new religious movements, such as Cao Dai, beliefs are clearly labeled as such, but once labelled, are discussed as if real. The intro to the article for Tenrikyo, for example, contains the sentence "Followers of Tenrikyo believe that God, known by several names including Tenri-O-no-Mikoto, expressed divine will through Nakayama's role as the Shrine of God…" Note that it doesn't say, for example, "...allegedly expressed divine will…" or something similar. This is the model I was trying to follow. Did you have any other specific thoughts about my draft?

NFCC policy problemsI'm sure you're not following the defunct discussion on the notice board, so I thought I'd repost my last comments here. I think I bring up some valid points. The following graf is an exact repost:
I think of lot of policies that were put in place to protect WP in theory have in practice turned out to be detrimental and contribute to the amount of wasted time editors must spend on dispute boards. Copyright law is meant to protect copyright holders from exploitation by those who would illegitimately profit from pirating the copyrighted works; it is not and never has been to stifle criticism, discussion, and education. The overreaction of WP on purported copyright violations in reality just feeds the control lust of those who live to enforce rules. If WP adopted some common-sense policies it would go a long way to making this place a lot more attractive to content editors. And the lack of content editors is WP's big problem, not rule enforcement, IMO.

VE still puts nowiki-wikilinks one month laterI just fixed yet another garbled wikilink for a nowiki tag (cut nowiki dif564), added by the VisualEditor on 24 October 2013, the one-month anniversary of removal from the top menu, in new article "John Cowan (computer scientist)", who ironically co-authored XML 1.1, a forerunner to wikitext markup. VE is still putting garbled nowiki tags in pages, in late October 2013, even after 6 months of knowing it was a major bug corrupting articles edited 99% by wikitext source-editor. I had suspected VE would still be defective 30-days later, and I estimate at least 100 pages still contain VE-corrupted text. I cannot emphasize enough how wise you were in September 2013 to remove VE from the top menu, and reduce the planned disruptive editing fostered by VE. BTW: I am now one of the 40 wp:template editors fixing protected templates, and many improvements are being made much faster to major templates.

The link expired in December 2011, but it doesn't mean that anyone dare lay the burden of proof on me to go find another one after everyone had 1.9 years of access to the link to confirm its validity. Again, that source was live and present for essentially (a remaining) 2 YEARS, so for one to now just decide at the last minute to delete it due to the dead article link, is absurd. That should be done all across the board on Wikipedia then. I've known that from the Backstreet Boys Wikipedia main page issue in early 2010, your conduct towards me is very negatively biased and not objective one bit, especially regarding how you chose to handle that situation poorly. I let that go years ago, but I necessarily won't swallow such a thing again, as deleting information due an expired/dead link/source is unacceptable to me and Status doing so is also questionable. When that supposed policy is not fully applied across the board in other articles on Wikipedia. If that was truly Wikipedia standard then, random deletions of information would be occurring all over Wikipedia based on dead links. I endlessly encounter articles, in which they have interesting statements with a citation next to them. Often clicking on those rather proves to be useless in having a dead or redirected link, due many years passing since them being cited. My first instinct is NOT to go and delete or "clean-up" the information provided because of a dead link. I will leave it alone or do my own research to re-confirm its validity. You knew very well why I reverted the removal of the "All I Have" recording information by Status and saw my explanation towards that, yet chose to disregard it on supposedly being "unsourced". When in the first place, it should have NEVER been reverted by Status without further analyzing where it came from. I do not like pettiness and will point it out when I see it, as I do not care to go wasting time, money (pay-per-view archives), and effort doing research of deeply/privately kept background information, for it to be treated as mere poppycock. For all the reverts you are more focused on doing, why haven't you corrected the incorrect "March 10, 2003" release date that contradicts its December 2002 Hot 100 chart debut?
