I am looking at the emailed rejection from Live Nation of FotB's offer to buy the Boyd. I am not at liberty to post that document online. 205.147.200.37 (talk) 04:28, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(From Agrajag27) Oh, well then it must be true since an anonymous person on Wikipedia says they're looking at it but can't post any part of it. Also, this still doesn't mention a formal offer. It mentions a rumor about an e-mail, that you refuse to produce, of Live Nation rejecting an "offer" from FoB to buy the Boyd. No details. When was it dated? What was the offer amount? Did this have anything to do with the buyer referenced at the Historical Committee meeting? Seems we may never know, and thus, this information does not belong here until it is factually proven.

I am not Howard and the information I have was shared with me confidentially. Fact is, with or without you seeing it, you have no basis for your incorrect statement that no formal offer was made. 205.147.200.37 (talk) 09:02, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(From Agrajag27) I really don't care who you are. I assumed you're not Howard. Again, the point remains, until proof of such an offer is actually available to the public, it's a rumor. You're purposely choosing to hide your identity and trying to back up your actions with more unsubstantiated commentary. It also doesn't escape notice that you somehow neglected to answer any of the direct questions presented to you.

Again: Fact is, with or without you seeing it, you have no basis for your incorrect statement that no formal offer was made. You are stating as fact that there was no formal offer. You have no direct knowledge upon which to base such a statement. 205.147.200.37 (talk) 09:18, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(From Agrajag27) And again you ignored every question. My statement is supported by the lack of any evidence to the contrary. The word of an anonymous poster on Wikpedia not-withstanding. I also note that, contrary to your argument, that's not the section you limit your edits to. Why is that? I'll be more than glad to change the wording of that if it'll make you happy but we both know, that isn't your motivation here.

Then please do change the wording. I seek accuracy and a link to your inflammatory personal blog post doesn't contribute to accuracy with its baseless speculation. And by the way Sharon Pinkenson was never a founder of Friends of the Boyd or its predecessor. 205.147.200.37 (talk) 09:28, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(From Agrajag27) Again, ignored all questions. The link is one of several and there's absolutely nothing inflammatory anywhere on the site regarding this issue. Your true colors continue to shine through. The editorial is simply a different point of view, which supporters continue to remove at every turn, including Sharon Pinkenson's letter. Care to explain why you feel her letter isn't valid for this article as well? I can wait.... And perhaps you're not familiar with this:

http://articles.philly.com/1995-05-24/news/25675178_1_boyd-theater-sharon-pinkenson-united-artists-sameric

Are you saying Carrie Richey is a liar now?

I stand corrected, sort of, on that point. By predeccessor, I meant the Committee to Save the Sameric founded in 2002. I wasn't aware of the previous 1995 organization, which apparently dissolved, after that earlier crisis passed and the Sameric remained in operation for 7 more years. I can't answer a lot of your detailed questions without betraying confidences, something I will not do, but the date of the offer rejection from Live Nation was February 27.

And I don't think random letters to the editor and blog posts contribute much to a wiki article that should serve as a synopsis of the Boyd's history. 205.147.200.37 (talk) 09:46, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

(From Agrajag27) You can reach me at any time. I'd be more than glad to listen to any point of view -- and that's entirely sincere. I believe that the Boyd article, to be fair, should not just be a large advertisement for a preservation effort. Prior to the edits, no alternative view was offered what-so-ever. it was written entirely from the perspective of the preservation viewpoint alone. Sharon's letter to the editor is important. She played a major role in the effort early on and is a major film luminary locally. Her shift in support is absolute pertinent. I also am entirely wide open to your input on an editorial about the other side of the equation. I suspect if we actually spoke instead of carrying out a battle via Wikipedia, we'd probably have a good chat, a nice laugh and we'd both understand one another a bit better and walk away better people for it. Again, I simply could no longer ignore the growing questions that were continuing to come my way. I did not search them out and, as I shared with the press, I sat on the first ones for months without any public comment until, later, they were validated by other sources (which I also didn't search out). Had you been in my shoes, I suspect you'd also find it hard to just ignore and, in my view, I'd have been entirely derelict in my civic duty to just push them under the carpet.

Understand, I tried talking to Mr. Haas. The result left me with more questions as a result of how he handled himself. And I wasn't the only one that felt that way. Has anyone thought to actually take five minutes to have a conversation with me about this? Nope. Instead the group just circled the wagons and put on the armor. I'm sorry that no other path seems acceptable. But, I do want to thank you for the limited dialogue. At least someone is saying something other than just insults. You'll note that, as our conversation morphed, I also made changes to my comments including editing my own editorial.

Oh, FYI, there's one other section of the article that has a possible error. Several sources told me that Sameric never actually owned the building, that they only leased it from another group that. Could that possibly be the Goldenberg Group?

Information icon Hello, I'm 331dot. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Northgate Computers, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. While I believe what you say, your word is not sufficient as a reliable source, as any Wikipedia user can make almost any claim. If you have documentation of what you say, that can be used a a source. 331dot (talk) 09:54, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Philadelphia Film Critics Circle, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
