[edit]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Kevin Mitnick may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • </ref> At the time of his arrest, he was the most wanted hacker in the United States history.<ref>{{cite press release | url = http://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/27/technology/27HACK.html | title = F.C.C.
  • web|title=Cool! Someone uploaded the piece of Person of Interest that mentions me. Very cool :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNLk7qoqVzo&feature=youtube_gdata_player ...|url=https://

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 10:55, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It appears as though we successfully resolved our editing differences on the Mitnick article. Thank you for your understanding, patience, and contributions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boorsours (talkcontribs) 09:16, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The best way to approach editing here on Wikipedia is to keep things objective and neutral as per https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch. No one is here to "vandalize" your edits or anyone else's. It's not personal. Unless you're the subject of the Kevin Mitnick article in question. Are you? If this is the case, it's against Wikipedia policy for reasons and conflicts of interest that should now strike you as self-evident. We're all here hopefully trying to do the best we can to create a neutral, objective result. I think we have to remember that we are not here to pass value judgments (for ex, characterizing someone as "legendary" is a value judgment and not an objective fact). You and others may consider the subject of this article or another article to be "legendary" or "epic", as may others, but Wikipedia policy stipulates that such qualifiers are to be omitted in the interests of ensuring an objective result. The same effect can be achieved, however, in the following manner. When you have included the phrase "At the time of his arrest, he was the most wanted hacker in the United States history and a federal fugitive", the use of a subjective qualifier is redundant. However, the requirement to maintain objectivity as per policy is upheld along with your achieved objective. See how that works? If you need another illustration, please contact me via my talk page. It's important to maintain neutrality and to remove our personal views from the editing process. All your sources have been retained. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boorsours (talkcontribs) 10:20, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Calm down, please. Your edits aren't being removed. No one is trying to eliminate anything. This isn't an adversarial process. Your contributions are being included along with others and nothing is being deleted. "Social engineer" still appears everywhere you added it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boorsours (talkcontribs) 16:24, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Boorsours - You keep vandalizing my edits that are completely objective and within Wikipedia's policy. As such, your removal of my edits are reverted.
