Im sorry that you think that my "original research" is in violation of Wikipedia policy, The fact is they have an original research tag for a reason,
This substance is illeagal almost anywhere in the world, and it is illeagal for good reason,
when people search google for "budder" they should get real, True, information from the people who have had first hand experience in both making it, and using it
I smoked alot of this stuff at one point and the person who introduced me to it made it sound like it was purer than any other hash, And it turns out this is the only Cannabis product that is potentially lethal and infused with a toxic substance called hydrogen sulfide.
I personally had multiple seizures and know 3 other patients who have since had severe seizures and medical problems because of those seizures, My back/spine is permentntly out of whack because of it, and i have spend well over 20,000$ in medical bills.
I understand wikipedia is a place for solid information, but this substance has not been scientifically researched, and it is very illeagal and RARE.
PLEASE do not remove my edits as they are simply THE BEST INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON THIS SUBSTANCE, if you would like me to further detail, or have these other patients post their stories or research id be glad to, and if you can suggest a way for me to verify my claims id love to do that as well.
BUT PLEASE do not ROB the people looking for good information of a WARNING that THIS IS NOT JUST THC, and it can potentially KILL YOU.
contact me at pwnsi6ht@gmail.com if you would like to discuss this as i personally would do any single thing i could to stop other people from having the same HORRIBLE experience that i did, And im sure you understand that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by NotAlright (talk • contribs) 17:33, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello Rrburke. Since you have made over 950 reports to AIV and 850 to UAA, would you like me to nominate you for adminship? Please either reply on my talk page or leave a ((talkback)) message. Good luck, --The High Fin Sperm Whale 18:50, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
Please review the latest edits at the Eido Tai Shimano entry by Mr. Marinello. It appears that he is attempting to suppress valid criticism from reliable sources with a major conflict of interest. He does not seem to take your direction seriously as supplied on the Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard.
Thank you. Kobutsu (talk) 23:04, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Rrburke. Have you been following User talk:Lib3rtarian? He has been using dynamic IPs to continue editing around the block and admits to it. I've protected two of the pages and his response to this was um, quite bizarre - he accused me of "raving" and something about me caring for "kangaroos and koalas, animals with a QI like (me)". I'm really thinking we just need to put an end to all this permanently. I thought maybe it was worth bringing in Italian-speaker but he seems uninterested and apparently thinks he's entitled to do whatever he likes because he basically owns the articles as the person who started them. I have also now been labeled a "fascist" so perhaps I'll finally warrant inclusion in his wiki-facism rant.:p It's all getting a bit tiresome and difficult to AGF when he shows no sign of wanting to follow any of the rules at all.

The information you have on Dawoodi Bohras is at best, not professional. I have no idea where you've received your data from, but if you are trying to allow people to get to know more about Dawoodi Bohras, you certainly are not accomplishing this task. Instead of removing everything I'm updating, why don't you spend more time on getting citations for the rubbish that's posted there right now! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Clarkcountynv (talk • contribs) 17:57, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I was visiting my Dad recently (user:Loweswatercam) and was cahtting to him about Wikipedia, and he mentioned that he had been to Austria recently, and took some photographs... I talked him through editing and he added to the Buchteln article with an example of somewhere famous that serves them, and a link to a photograph (I don't yet know myself how to upload the picture any other way to show it on the page). I can see you have reversed this edit - please explain why?
Thanks. Gazhiley (talk) 12:50, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

I read Talk:Just Detention International - if Justdetention is affiliated with the group, he is still allowed to edit the article and make updates. He just has to follow COI, which tells an affiliated person how to approach such an article. That's all. WhisperToMe (talk) 03:26, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. —DoRD (talk) 21:51, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I don't think this qualifies for db-web, so I replaced that tag with a PROD. ThemFromSpace 19:49, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, this thing really bugged me out and the nimrod is still at it. I've been working off-wiki with two other admins who've been victimized and I'm now handing out rangeblocks right and left across four different wikis. I was given admin rights at Eflightwiki.com (thank goodness) where he was particularly vicious and from there I've blocked all his known IP ranges for five years on that and other wikis where I have admin rights and the same username. We have a remarkable amount of data on the guy since his shenanigans have gone on for several years, so if things continue to get out of control, we can contact the police department in his area. Thanks again. Nice to know I'm appreciated around here. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 22:42, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi I was updating the page on Catholic fiction and inadvertently trespassed on the rules. I tried to fix it by deleting anything that had to do with me or my employer. Catholic fiction is a subject I've researched and spoken on, and I wanted to add some of my knowledge to the entry.
Hope what I submitted was better. I'm still not sure how to use references though. Scholarly articles on the subject are rare: I manged to reference one.
Also, the book "Compasse" that is referenced on the page is apparently a self-pub and I'm not sure why it's up there! Peace and good Regina Doman —Preceding unsigned comment added by Reginadoman (talk • contribs) 18:27, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! I think I managed to put the sources in correctly but I'm not sure how well I did with reference.

Hello Rrburke. I am just letting you know that I deleted Horacio Salinas (photographer), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided, which doesn't fit the page in question. Thank you. GedUK 20:56, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Dear Rrburke. I would be grateful if you would undo the changes you made to Inventages entries in wikipedia. Inventages is actively investing in start-up companies. At a time when access to capital is scarce, I think entrepreneurs would greatly benefit from increased awareness on our fund. I think Inventages also has significant impact in the start-up community, being worthy of an entry in Wikipedia. I'm new to entering information on Wikipedia, and I shall edit the articles to remove any bias in the entry, but please give me some time to work on the articles before deleting. Thanks a lot, Kind Regards. Siroperez Siroperez (talk) 14:54, 29 August 2010 (UTC)
I read your proposal of deletion of the article "Lucia Bova" then I'm adding bibliographical sources in order to let you value my activity and to render it verifiable.
All best Lucia Bova —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucia Bova (talk • contribs) 10:36, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
Dear editor, I understand what you mean and I agree with the general principle. But I would like to propose to Wikipedia a new rule: for biographies I think that it should be necessary that the article is signed openly by someone, as it happens with any voice of any encyclopedia on paper. Because, you see, anyone can ask a friend to use a nickname and create an article of celebration. I saw the articles "Claudio Ambrosini" "Paolo Ravaglia", "Lavinia Meijer" and "Floraleda Sacchi" and they haven't any reference or source. Is it enough a nickname or a name not verified to have an article on Wikipedia? I think that this is not a good system and that it shoul be improved for the future. I have thought to be honest and I have written the article about me with my name. If you think that it might be improved, deleting or adding something, please tell me and I'll do it.
Thank you for your kind attention and best regards. Lucia BovaLucia Bova (talk) 14:03, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi. It appears as though these two users might be the same person:
Anna Frodesiak (talk) 18:40, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Rrburke
I noticed you added the ((recent death)) template to the above-captioned article only four edits after I removed it with the edit summary "rm recent death template--only for articles being edited rapidly by many editors". If you review the template instructions, you will find that they state that the template is only for use in highly edited articles. Since his death, the article on Claude Béchard has been edited 28 times by 13 editors. There is no reason to add a sensationalist template to an article with so few edits.

Hey man,
Not trying to have an edit war. Just curious to your reasoning behind changing the picture. I want to just make this page look better, I am a constituent, not the candidate. The edits popped up in one of my feeds and got me interested.
I was adding more details around the elections as well. I am looking for more sources that are not the campaign page. Does the official State Senate pages work? They are not controlled by the subject.
Thanks.
Hope we can be civil on this one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peachpundit (talk • contribs) 18:11, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
No, I am not associated with www.peachpundit.com. I know of the site, but never go to it. I have added 5 or 6 sources today. I contacted Senator Chip Rogers, and he was emailing the email provided to give them permission to use it. He considers it in the public domain. He was providing his personal emails to confirm. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peachpundit (talk • contribs) 19:59, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
BTW, on another note. The reason I keep changing his surname back is verification. I cannot find anything that says that is actually his real name. I am pretty sure the first name is correct, I do not think the middle name is.
I don't know him, only emailed him once. Not entirely sure it was a response from him vs an aide. But they did respond with that message. You are going to leave William even though it is not sourced as a sure thing? You have deleted other things that are a sure thing that I have sourced. ??? Also you added that Craig Dowdy was a democrat. He is not. He lost in the primary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Peachpundit (talk • contribs) 20:41, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Man, again, you reverted back changes that I made that were factual. I.E. Tommy Williams that you keep linking too is a Texas politician, not a Georgian politician. Senator Rogers was never a legislator in TX. I have fixed this. But you refuse to accept that I know that of which I speak. --Peachpundit (talk) 03:31, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi Rrburke. Just to follow up on the report started on Jeannie Cho Lee edits, the seeming SPA accounts Asianpalate (talk · contribs) and Aphk (talk · contribs) now seem to continue under Winestudent725 (talk · contribs).

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding entering data about artists/photographers and linking to galleries and agencies.
For example, the photographer Mary Ellen Mark has a Wikipedia page with external links to the gallery which represents her (Trish South Management). Trunk Archive is an image licensing agency which also represents Mary Ellen Mark, specifically when her work is published. Trish South Management deals with Mary Ellen Mark's work as it is sold to private clients, collections, and shown in museums and other galleries (and profits from these dealings). They also are responsible for displaying her work on their website and in their gallery, and this serves the purpose of exposing the public to the work of the photographer. Trunk Archive functions similarly by managing the rights and reproductions side of the photographer's work in publications. Trunk Archive also has an extensive number of Mary Ellen Mark's images on their website. Trish South Management and Trunk Archive function similarly and perform as representation for Mary Ellen Mark, however when we try to add a link to Trunk Archive, we have been warned that we are acting out of promoting our business.
It is true that in linking to Trunk Archive on the page of a photographer we represent, we are essentially self-promoting, and I understand that this is against the rules of Wikipedia. However, we do it for the same reasons that a gallery adds a link on the page of an artist they represent (such as Trish South Management in the case of Mary Ellen Mark), and numerous other artists (such as Robert Adams and Fraenkel Gallery.) The Wiki for photographer John Akehurst has a link to one of the agencies which represents him (Camilla Lowther Management) but Trunk Archive has been edited from his page, although we represent him, as well.
On the Trunk Archive Wikipedia page, the list of artists that the agency represents has been edited and removed from the page. If you look at the Wiki page for Matthew Marks Gallery, you can see a list of artists that they represent.
Can you clarify why Trunk Archive has been blacklisted and if it is for any reason other than self-promotion? It appears as if we have been singled out when we are in fact operating in the same ways as the galleries and agencies listed above.
Thank you for your insights.

Those companies are not writing about themselves -- or if they are, they haven't been detected yet.

Please also see Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest. -- Rrburke (talk) 01:23, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Saw you reverted my addition to News_Embargo to remove the Embargo Watch/embargowatch.wordpress.com (as it is a "blog"). The site is notable: it is edited by the editor of Reuters Health (Ivan Oransky) and has been cited by major media outlets, including Columbia Journalism Review and NPR. It is an originally reported online news source solely dedicated to the topic of the entry.
If this doesn't meet the standards, it doesn't meet the standards. But it's not a personal blog and it's precisely on-topic. --Bbr53636 (talk) 21:57, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
Will follow your advice and re-add. I assume the fact that it's a Wordpress-hosted blog throws red flags. But the site is a recognized authority and the furthest thing from a fansite. --Bbr53636 (talk) 22:36, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
I also live in this area, and I've heard the term Upper Beach(es) used with some regularity. As search of newspaper archives finds that the term has been used at least since the 1950s. For the neighbourhood maps I used six different maps to determine accepted boundaries. Four of them include the Upper Beach(es): The City of Toronto communities map, Toronto Star, Toronto Public Library, and ToBuilt. The two exceptions are the City of Toronto demographic map that call the area East End-Danforth and Toronto Neighbourhood Guide that call the entire area the Beaches. - SimonP (talk) 03:44, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
