First thing wiki is always from supposed to be from a NPOV, secondly wiki itself is not a reliable source to be used for citations according to it's own policies, another site you used did not state everything you said it did. It doesn't matter if you took years to add it. If it is not added in the proper form, and in a NPOV it will be deleted everytime.Rogue Gremlin 23:03, 22 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sir: Your assertions are baseless. Please challenge any (any) specific point, and I'll be happy to reconsider. Otherwise go back to your job at PEI, and leave this alone.

Also the stuff you added does not belong on Hugh Hefners page, part of it might could go on Playboy Enterprises page(without assumptions and personal POV, since his daughter runs PEI and not Hugh Hefner, and I already told you wiki itself cannot be used for a proper citation, since it can be editted by anyone.Rogue Gremlin 19:44, 24 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sir: I'm trying to take you seriously. I provide citations and references for every claim I've made. You've provided none, for any. I'm bored to tears of your unsourced claim regarding internal citations, and I'm growing impatient with your continual, and unsupported characterizations of my POV. Try dealing with the text, not with me.

If you look at the talk page for Hugh Hefner I too agree with both Dysepsion and Rogue. What you are trying to input belongs on Playboy Enterprises but not Hugh Hefner's page and so I deleted it. Feel free to add it to PEI page. But it does not belong there. Rogue is also correct that Wikipedia cannot be used as a citation no matter how much you think it can. So I will point out to you what it says at the top of Hugh's talkpage as well as being placed all over wiki "This article must adhere to the policy on biographies of living persons. Controversial material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous. If such material is repeatedly inserted or if there are other concerns relative to this policy, report it on the living persons biographies noticeboard."Posah-tai-vo 03:13, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Also if you check PEI records you will see Christie Hefner is both, Chairman of the Board and CEO since 1981. Not Hugh Hefner, He is still the Editor in chief of Playboy Magazine and Chief Creative Officer thats it.Posah-tai-vo 03:22, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Can no one deal with the text?? I'll be happy to change the links (which you call citations) on Club Jenna and Spice Digital Networks in order to satisfy the (still unsourced) wish that I not use Wikipedia links. Does anyone argue that CJ and SJ are NOT owned by PEI. Please. This is nothing but a red herring. Second, to suggest that what I've posted is either controversial or potentially libelous is absurd. Once again, please comment on the text, not me. Finally if YOU check PEI records you will see that HMH is the controlling shareholder, and per my citation, the TOP listed executive at the corporate web site.

As you have been told by me and 2 others, What you are trying to add has to do with Playboy Enterprises, not Hugh Hefner as his daughter has been running PEI for the last 26 years. If you want to try and add it try there. But it will always be deleted here. Try adding something of value about Hugh Hefner. Not to mention PEI does not try to hide from all the companies it owns. But your comments are about PEI not Hugh Hefner, since he does not run PEI and is not even on the board of directors. Yes he is a coroporate officer and his name is at the top because he is the FOUNDER he is NOT the top executive, his titles are Editor in Chief, and Chief Creative Officer, neither of which are involved with the day to day operations of PEI. His daughter is the TOP executive and has been for over 20 years. So add it to PEI with proper citations and i wont delete it, but add it here and I will.Rogue Gremlin 15:43, 25 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Don’t be discouraged

[edit]

Hi Jerry, I wanted to reach out after seeing your comment removed from the 1993 Philadelphia meeting AfD. Please don't take it personally, SeanHolyland wasn't targeting you specifically. They were applying a standing rule covering the whole Arab-Israeli conflict topic area (the "extended confirmed restriction"), which requires an account to have 500 edits and be at least 30 days old before participating in that particular subject. It applies the same way to everyone, whatever position they're arguing.

I see your account's been around since 2007, so the 30-day part is long since covered, it's really just the edit count, you're at 380 and need 500. My honest advice: don't rush to close that gap with quick, low-value edits just to hit the number faster. Better to spend that time on solid, useful edits elsewhere on the encyclopedia, and maybe use it to get familiar with some of the policies that come up constantly in this topic area — WP:RS, WP:NPOV, WP:BLP, and WP:CANVASS in particular. Once you're past 500 with a good handle on those, you'll be in a much stronger position here.

Thanks for your interest in the topic, and hope to see you back once you clear the threshold. Michael Boutboul (talk) 18:27, 18 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Boutboul Thanks so much. I totally get it. I just didn't know that protected pages were not all marked. Separately -- not that I suspect you examined my history, but I've worked hard on a bunch of articles, most especially Robert Moses, and hope I never make low-value edits! Thanks again.

Invalid ref tag at Robert Moses

[edit]

This edit introduced a ref named NYSP_attendance with no content. It doesn't seem to have existed previously. Can you please either supply or delete this citation? It's been broken since May. Hairy Dude (talk) 20:10, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Having looked through the talk page it seems it did exist, over 4 years ago. AnomieBOT found some possibilities: Talk:Robert Moses#Orphaned references in Robert Moses. Hairy Dude (talk) 20:19, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thank you! I fixed it. Not sure what happened. It's a link to a searchable db of live data. JerryGraf (talk) 21:06, 1 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Information icon Hello, I'm TurquoiseGoose. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Six-Day War seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. - TurquoiseGoose•they/them•(talk) 23:48, 24 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
