There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Tenebrae_WP:HOUNDING — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Kingfisher (talk • contribs) 04:48, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Closed here with a WP:BOOMERANG against User:The Kingfisher. --Tenebrae (talk) 17:40, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

False quotation

This edit by User:The Kingfisher contains a false quotation attributed to the article subject. As seen at the cited source, that is not a Carolla quote but an opinion by the writer of the article.--Tenebrae (talk) 17:40, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And that editor has tried again, re-adding the non-quote. You cannot add a quote not by the subject, which is putting someone else's words in the subject's mouth. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:19, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please point me to the policy where a quote from a RS cannot be used? The Kingfisher (talk) 19:32, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There's no policy that has to say, "Don't put words into someone's mouth." Additionally, an outside source cannot characterize something that doesn't yet even exist. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:46, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment that words are being put into someone's mouth is wrong. It is not a false quote by putting a quotation attributed to a RS.
You make a good point about not giving a quotation about something that has not yet happened.
You deleted what the political correction is about, which is on college campuses. I'm reinserting. The Kingfisher (talk) 20:47, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough point about campus specificity. Done. --Tenebrae (talk) 21:53, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't like him much until I read that controversies section. That was hilarious and could include a lesson for people in the public eye: if you're forced to apologise, be transparently insincere and continue to be offensive. Awesome! 144.48.37.102 (talk) 04:23, 17 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
