In response to your comments on Kyle Sandilands
I have to say that I'm curious. What is it about Kyle Sandilands' comments that "India is a shithole" that isn't notable? In the context of the time, it was particularly unfortunate because Australia had a major diplomatic row with India over treatment of Indian students. So much so the Australian Prime Minister at the time took a special trip to India. The comments from Sandilands further inflamed the situation. Are you saying that this was not a notable event?
But hey, I'm not going to push it further. If the Wikipedia admins and editors want to deliberately exclude an important event, then I guess Wikipedia can't really be called a particularly good source of information. If editors want to sweep this under the carpet, with no consideration of the implications for not including the info, then there isn't much I can do about it. Good to see Wikipedia is as biased and ignorant as ever! - 58.163.175.192 (talk) 12:41, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
Paterno edit request confusion
Hi there - I reactivated the edit request on the Paterno page that you discontinued. I had actually revised it per the previous editors suggestions, so it is not the same as the original request. Should I just resubmit the new version as a new edit request? Thanks. --AVR2012 (talk) 21:19, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Deaths in 2012, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Longest Day (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Mixed ancestry?
I am curious as to your listing of being of 'mixed ancestry' on your user page. It seems completely meaningless. Everyone alive is of 'mixed' ancestry, as everyone currently alive shares several common ancestors, not too long ago. 94.214.196.189 (talk) 03:08, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
- It is meaningless if you take it to that extreme. In the past few generations, I have representatives from a large number of ethnic groups in my family tree, so I have mixed ancestry as opposed to someone who might, for instance, be able to trace his German heritage back tens of generations.

Blueware
I have some changes I need made for my company the company name is "Blueware" I have everything in the talk section. Is there any chance you could take care of that for me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.34.34.242 (talk) 12:40, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
- That is going to be difficult; the content you are asking to have added reads like a company brochure. You should read the policy/advice about conflict of interest. The gist is that you can edit with a conflict of interest, but you need to be very careful about writing in a neutral manner and providing reliable sources for any facts you present. Are there specific errors on the current page which you want to correct immediately? If you provide an independent, reliable source, we can state what the source states. If we rely on company websites, we can only state that the company claims this. Thanks, Celestra (talk) 14:46, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
SWTOR consensus
I apologize if I failed to follow protocol when I made my edit request for the article Star Wars: The Old Republic. I am not a regular contributor to Wikipedia and was not aware of the proper etiquette for the situation. I read the article you included in your message and created a new section heading for the topic (In search of consensus: fansite wiki project external links). Is this an appropriate start, and if I have failed to recognize a step in this process would you please share it with me? -- KingDMS (talk) 23:24, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, I do have a question; what recourse is there when the established users that respond to the recommendation refuse to even attempt to reach consensus? When they use personal attacks and attempt to identify conditions about myself that would invalidate the entire idea? I outlined my concerns and proposed a course of action, but instead of speaking on the merits of the ideas, or lack thereof, I'm being forced to defend myself on a professional and ethical basis. Even when they do cite a guideline or policy, they refuse to explain why it applies in one case and not the other. It seems like the established users in question are exercising bias, not necessarily against any content, but against me personally. -- KingDMS (talk) 14:27, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
Second Amendment Collective-Rights History pre-Heller
Please review prior to editing or commenting further on the Second Amendment. I have posted it on the Talk Page as well, but I'm reaching out to you and all other editors personally because I sincerely believe when you review the evidence and when you search for contrary evidence, you will see I am correct about this history. I'm not claiming you personally had any statement about this, but I wanted to post the identical thing on every editors' talk page so please do not take it personally. "You" refers to anyone who disputes the reliable sources I have posted below.
The law WAS collective only prior to Heller. If I show you 3 cases and several commentaries by irrefutably accurate sources and you cannot show me a single case from 1939 to 2000 to refute it, you have to accept that history is history.
- Here are some quotes from:
In 1977 at a Denver hotel, Don Kates paced a conference room lecturing a small group of young scholars about the Second Amendment and tossing out ideas for law review articles. Back then, it was a pretty weird activity in pursuit of a wacky notion: that the Constitution confers an individual right to possess a firearm.
“This idea for a very long time was just laughed at,” said Nelson Lund, the Patrick Henry professor of constitutional law and the Second Amendment at George Mason University, a chair endowed by the National Rifle Association. “A lot of people thought it was preposterous and just propaganda from gun nuts.” ...
The Second Amendment states: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Before the Heller decision, the Supreme Court and lower courts had interpreted the language as “preserving the authority of the states to maintain militias,” according to a Congressional Research Service analysis.
“It was a settled question, and the overwhelming consensus, bordering on unanimity, was that the Second Amendment granted a collective right” enjoyed by the states, not individuals, Bogus said. Under this interpretation, the Constitution provides no right for an individual to possess a firearm.
Lund [Remember he's the NRA-endowed Second-Amendment professor!] agreed that there was a consensus but said it was “based on ignorance.”
OK, you don't trust the Congressional Research Service, the Library of Congress, the New York Times, the Washington Post, or the National Rifle Association-endowed professor of constitutional law and the Second Amendment? How about trusting the courts themselves? Just read these three:
- Cases v. United States, 131 F.2d 916 (1st Cir. 1942)
- United States v. Warin, 530 F.2d 103, 106 (6th Cir. 1976) (“[i]t is clear that the Second Amendment guarantees a collective rather than an individual right.”)
- Love v. Peppersack, 47 F.3d 120, 123 (4th Cir. 1995) (“the lower federal courts have uniformly held that the Second Amendment preserves a collective, rather than individual right.”)
All of them cited Miller. All of them were the law of the land. There's not a single case in all of American history in any court state or federal that found an individual right to bear arms absent service in a militia and struck down a gun law as unconstitutional prior to 2000. I will pay $100 to anyone who can find any case that says so.
Furthermore, there is not a single President prior to 2000 that stated he believed the Supreme Court conferred an individual right to bear arms under the Second Amendment absent service in a militia. Even Reagan didn't believe it. I will pay $100 to anyone who can find any President that stated this position prior to 2000.
Truth is truth. If you don't like truth, you should not be editing wikipedia. Many editors here, I know you believe otherwise. But whoever told you a lie was true was mistaken. Read my sources. Then look for reliable sources on your own. When you can't find any (and if you do, I'll give you $100), I would respectfully request that all of you withdraw your objections. If you don't, then you are clear POV-pushers and should not be editing wikipedia.
Otherwise, if the only way to remove unreliable sources in wikipedia is to put up a request for comment and/or mediation, let's do it. I'll bet my reliable sources against all of your absence of sources any day. There is nothing wrong with admitting you are wrong. People are trying to revise history and some people fall prey to it. Maybe you read something on the Internet from some ignorant blogger and believed it to be true. I respectfully request you look at the sources and come to the only accurate conclusion.
My history is backed up by EVERY judicial decision and EVERY President prior to 2000 and the Library of Congress, and the Congressional Research Service, and the NRA-endowed Professor of the Second Amendment, not to mention the NYT and the WP. And the contrary position is backed up by some sincere mistaken beliefs AND NOT A SINGLE SOURCE.
An honest and ethical wikipedia editor cannot look truth in the face and declare it untrue without a single reliable source to back it up. I will post this on the talk page of every editor who has edited or commented recently because I sincerely want all of you to review the sources before further editing or commenting.

I posted a well referenced section on economics in Gun Politics and you, dliigencedude and Grahamboat decided that you didn't like the sources, like the UN treaty on the black market manufacturing and sales of firearms (which addresses political firearm issues in the States), and deleted the section. Why would I have anything to do with a group of people who censor the reality of the relationship between economics and politics because of their own ideology? Wikipedia has a crap reputation for accuracy because of ideological censorship and the deliberate insertion of false material based on ideology. Go ahead, censor all you want. Eliminate anyone whose material invades your little fantasy ideology. Why would I ever even bother to contribute again? Censor me, I would rather be censored than live in a fantasy.
