Feel free to leave comments at the bottom of the page.


It should go without saying that trolling, vandalism, and personal attacks will be promptly removed. Thanks. IrishGuy

True sources by Wikipedia standards or not? Please advise.

Does any of this count as a true source and not original research? Please visit this Wikipedia article link: Jeff Hammond and click on the official website link there, fifth column down on Hammond's official website you will find an article written by Jeff Hammond himself entitled "Making pranks".

Please also look at this link to Fox Sports.com: [1], a few columns down you will find an article written by Jeff Hammond entitled 'Crank' it up'. Everyone involved with Lee Roy Mercer's new Gone Racin' album are donating their percentages of the proceeds to the Victory Junction Gang Camp including the prank call artist known as Lee Roy Mercer.

In addition, please look at this photo at Fox Sports.com with the caption: "Yuckin' it up", Carl Edwards (right) celebrates in victory lane with comedian Lee Roy Mercer.(NASCAR Scene/Special to FOXSports.com) [2]

If any of this works for Wikipedia please let me know.

I'm new at this, but I am more than happy to go by the Wikipedia guidelines in order to provide accurate information that is Wikipedia worthy regarding this matter.

In addition, I'm receiving personal attracts from user bobbystone in my talk backs to you. This is highly uncalled for and most certainly not appreciated. Please advise.

Thank you for your time regarding this matter.

Sincerely,

David Wojahn --GoneRacing 02:34, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Which guideline did I supposedly violate? The information is 100% accurate and can easily be verified from numerous sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Katrotat (talkcontribs) 03:19, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

autobiographical editing

Thank you for your response to the editing I did on my own Wikipedia article. I did not create the original article stub, and believed I was expanding on it objectively. However, if I have breached Wikipedia's conflict of interest, I apologize. Can the content be reverted to the stub?

Talbert1214 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Talbert1214 (talkcontribs) 20:54, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you would like it to be reverted, I can do so. The material you added, while unreferenced, doesn't appear to be unduly promotional. IrishGuy talk 20:57, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would prefer to leave it alone. I truly think that I have expanded factual content. I will restrict future editing (if any) to corrections only. Thanks again. talbert1214 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Talbert1214 (talkcontribs) 21:03, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. :) IrishGuy talk 21:07, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your bot keeps deleting my stub on Invade Earth

Some time ago I downloaded Invade Earth, played it, enjoyed it. Today I was browsing through the list of open source games page and happened to notice that Invade Earth was not on there. I decided to make a small contribution and add the link, but when I went to the edit page, there was a comment that said:

LINKS FROM THIS PAGE MUST HAVE AN ARTICLE ASSOCIATED WITH THEM OR THEY WILL BE REMOVED.

So then I figured I'd add a small article to go along with the link. But when I did it was promptly deleted because in creating the stub I had copied and pasted a small block of text from the website that was part of a description of some of the features of the game. I'm new to wikipedia, so I did not know that this would result in prompt deletion of the article on grounds of copyright infringement. Anyway, I'm sure that had the authors of the content known, they would have not only given me permission but would have actually thanked me.

Then I set out to write a small stub in my own words and it got deleted for having no meaningful content. But it did have meaningful content: it defined Invade Earth which was a small start, but nevertheless a start. It had the additional use that it would have enabled me to add that link, which I'm sure many gamers would have been grateful for.

Anyway, now I'm out of time. So I've written about 16 lines of complaints that could have gone to the article. Oh well, guess that's how it goes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dttopptewqxyn (talkcontribs) 00:34, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article didn't denote any level of importance or notability. Please read WP:NOTE. IrishGuy talk 00:37, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A Faraway Ancient Country

I was told you deleted my article because you thought I was avertising it. It's a good book that I picked up off of Google books. What is wrong with making a page about it? --JRTyner 02:49, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was an advertisement for a non-notable self-published book. IrishGuy talk 14:52, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I bought it after reading the newspaper article, I was adding sources when you deeted it. --JRTyner 17:28, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why was Adrenaphine deleted before it's completion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinhead1979 (talkcontribs)

It was about a band that didn't assert any level of importance or notability. Please read WP:BAND. IrishGuy talk 19:10, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aporia Cross-Media Entertainment

Trying to ensure that it conforms by pointing out the significance of the group within the first paragraph - if there is something I need to do to fix this please let me know. I'm just trying to get some information gathered and compiled for this group I'm researching. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Voodoojas0n (talkcontribs) 19:11, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is a blatant advertisement. Additionally, the article even notes they have plans for future works denoting they haven't done anything notable yet. IrishGuy talk 19:15, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It, also, points out a significant work that they have done which has been pointed out in the ARG community numerous times as an example for how future developers should proceed in developing low budget/no budget games. This is a group of game developers who have developed works and are working on future projects. How is posting about this group any different from software development companies such as Wideload_Games - a company similar to Aporia Cross-Media Entertainment with the exception that they actually profit from their games. Aporia Cross-Media Entertainment is a group of developers which does not profit from their games (or from my knowledge has not profited from their games yet) so how can this be blatant advertisement when this article is not selling anything to anyone and is only an attempt to gather information into one convenient location?
