User talk:Stifle

Welcome to my talk page. Please read my Frequently Asked Questions, which may answer your question.

Replies

Please reply to me here if possible.
If your message is about an AFD or other discussion that you want me to (re)contribute to, I will generally not reply other than by checking the page and adding a comment.
I will normally reply here and copy my reply to your talk page, but may sometimes use {{talkback}} or, occasionally, reply here only.
Please don't leave your email address. My email address is user.stiflegmail.com, but please don't email me anything that isn't confidential or sensitive (unless you're blocked or I'm away and not responding). I check my email far less often than my talk page, so leaving a message here is significantly more likely to get a quick reply. I find that offwiki messages are contrary to the open and clear communication that I prefer, and if you email me with a non-confidential request, I will reply to you onwiki.
- Exception: if you are requesting the text of a deleted article, then make sure your preferences include a valid, confirmed email address, as I will email the article to you at that address (only).

Andrewponsford, who you warned for edit warring on 7 October at User talk:Andrewponsford#October 2009, has continued to restore his unsourced personal opinions at ESPNsoccernet after coming off a 24-hour block for the same thing. Though I could block again for a longer time, it would be good to get an opinion from another admin about what to do. EdJohnston (talk) 23:05, 31 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've given him a strong, specific warning. Best to make sure people understand what they're not supposed to do. Stifle (talk) 10:25, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for looking into this, and giving him the further warning. EdJohnston (talk) 16:44, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the direction on how to cite the sources. To that point, how does this old page I posted not comply though when I used links to the Soccernet pages with errors? Should I use a link that cites the correct fact instead? Thanks for your help.

The link to the soccernet page shows what he said. You need proof that a reliable source has said the statements were "glaring errors". Stifle (talk) 11:40, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Summit Tunnel Fire

Hi,

A few months ago a number of photographs were remove from the Summit Tunnel fire article due to valid copyright reasons. I now have the publishers written authority to use these and I believe it will enhance the article. Can you give me advice on the best way to restore these?
