I don't see this source that you used as being reliable. it says it largely posts positive reviews. Is there any other reason you feel that the source is reliable? |

- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Misplaced Pages
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Misplaced Pages's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Misplaced Pages page and follow Misplaced Pages's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Misplaced Pages is not a forum.
The Misplaced Pages tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump.
May 2013
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add soapboxing, promotional or advertising material to Misplaced Pages, you may be blocked from editing. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:29, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
- Well, you've got a lot of nerve threatening me with a potential block given your long history here on Misplaced Pages Mr. Wofowitz. Your intimidation tactics are not welcome here on this page.
- Please kindly self-revert your very recent edits to the following pages: Karina Kay, Jayna Oso, Lea Lexis, Nessa Devil and Katie Kox. The links that you (twice) recently removed from those articles are a part of the list of valid External Links from the Misplaced Pages Pornography Project, of which I note that you are not even a member of. See: "AdultWhich aka WhichPornstar – Database listing website appearances of European and other adult models. Includes an number of models not found on Eurobabe Index. Their filmographies are considered reliable", "Excaliburfilms.com – Many performer and director biographies", and "Eurobabe Index – Database listing website appearances (and sometimes filmographies) of European adult models. Includes a number of models not found on AdultWhich. Part of the Template:Female adult bio box template. Their filmographies are considered reliable".
- I will go further to say that your well-known crusade against pornography-related articles is unwelcome here on Misplaced Pages. I welcome any further input from an uninvolved administrator on this issue, since it may likely result in you being blocked Mr. Wolfowitz. We could do with a break from your "I don't like it" attitude on here. All your doing here is making more work for the rest of us with your constant deletionist tone.
- In my five years on Misplaced Pages, I've never been blocked, but I note that you have been blocked twice for disruptive editing & editing warring in the past. I have not engaged in either activity, nor do I have any interest in doing so now or in the future. Guy1890 (talk) 02:07, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
- Mytwocents, I would avoid Excaliburfilms.com, it is a web-shop site, so its presence in EL might sound promotional or at best inopportune. Eurobabe Index and AdultWhich are two reliable database sites, so they could stay. If I could point something, for the cases I checked, AdultWhich appears to be very, very incomplete, so its removal does not appear as a serious lack in terms of informations (that does not mean it should be marked as spam). Cavarrone (talk) 13:00, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
- From what I can tell from his history here, this wouldn't be the first time that Mr. Wolfowitz has tried to enforce some phantom Misplaced Pages "rule" that doesn't exist. I really don't know what bee is in his bonnet now, or why he chose to troll through some of my recent edits to revert a bunch of non-controversial external links for just a handful of articles.
- In the searching that I've done so far, not all adult actors have "Excaliburfilms" entries or entries there that had any useful information on it, so I haven't always added an External Link to that site on every porn actor article that I've edited. The same thing goes for "AdultWhich", not all adult actors have existing or useful entries there. It's certainly not true that I've been "spamming" multiple articles with entries for these sites for some personal monetary gain. I've also not tried to use any of the above sites for citations in any article on Misplaced Pages. Guy1890 (talk) 20:07, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
- Still waiting for those self-reverts User:Hullaballoo Wolfowitz. You're not going to weasel your way out of this. Those legitimate links belong back in those articles. Guy1890 (talk) 20:01, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
- So, it's been over a week, and Mr. Wolfowitz continues to happily edit away while ignoring this discussion (as I unfortunately expected). Fair warning, I guess I'll have to slowly start to re-introduce the necessary links back into many of the above articles. Guy1890 (talk) 23:42, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, this unnecessary saga continues. When I tried to make some minor edits to Nessa Devil (like moving some links around) and re-added some non-controversial links along with a link to this very discussion (which Mr. Wolfowitz continues to ignore), he reverted those edits again and made an unfounded accusation by saying in his edit summary "remove advertising links added back with deceptive edit summary". There was nothing "deceptive" about my edit summary and the links in question aren't "advertising links". Unfortunately, this kind of activity has been going on with Mr. Wolfowitz for apparently a number of years without much of any correction...more on that later after I do some more reading.

Disambiguation link notification for June 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Censor bars, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Blurring (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.
- Fixed. Guy1890 (talk) 19:16, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Merge discussion for Timeline of Sun Myung Moon
An article that you have been involved in editing, Timeline of Sun Myung Moon, has been proposed for a merge with another article. If you are interested in the merge discussion, please participate by going here, and adding your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. Steve Dufour (talk) 15:49, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
- I have no expertise in this area, and it appears that I was only involved a while back in solving some reference link issues in the article in question. I have no opinion on the proposed merge. Thanx anyways. Guy1890 (talk) 18:21, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
- Views/Day
- Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
- Quality
- Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
- Content
- Is more content needed?
- Headings
- Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
- Images
- Is the number of illustrative images about right?
- Links
- Does this article link to enough other Misplaced Pages articles?
- Sources
- For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Misplaced Pages better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 00:09, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
unreliable source
I don't see this source that you used as being reliable. Here it says it largely posts positive reviews. Is there any other reason you feel that the source is reliable?
