Faraya MZAAR Thank you for your technical contribution to this article but, most probably without knowing, you are endorsing a version of the article which is different from the usual consensus and original article. It is all about "territorial" conflict regarding two different villages claiming "sovereignty" on the resort and "paternity" of it's development. The use of words such as "minorities" and other similar nonsense should have alerted you. It looks stupid but this Lebanon, where they know a lot about "civil wars".

Leonsis edits
Hi there, I'm hoping we can iron out the issues of the Controversies section on the Ted Leonsis article. I started a discussion on the Talk page about the back and forth the editors seem to be having regarding the 2004 Hammer incident, and about the section in general, so I'd love to get your views there so we can get some resolution.

Ronan Farrow
Hi - I noticed you recently had some of your edits to Ronan Farrow undone by a IP editor. I used to attempt to edit that entry but gave up because it was so overrun by sockpuppets trying to massage the bio. I wanted to let you know I've filed a sockpuppet investigation request for the editor who undid your edits (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/AsadR#15_January_2014). If you are interested in continuing to contribute to Ronan Farrow, or opening a point for discussion on the Talk page about reinserting your contributions, I would be happy to lend my 0.02. I thought your contributions were appropriate and reasonable. BlueSalix (talk) 10:21, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

small notes
Hi there. I twice wrote out a longer note here only to find my browser crashed and my unsaved edit was lost. Can you please just read my mind, instead? Thanks, --doncram 17:04, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- I guess not. Mainly I was hoping you might choose to fix up Draft:Bud Otis and move it to Harold F. Otis or Bud Otis, but no problem if not, i would submit it to articles for creation sometime.
- And FYI, since I drafted that by modifying from a copy of Jessica Fitzwater, i noticed miniscule suggestions maybe:
- when naming a reference to be able to re-use it, you don't need to use quotes if it is a single word. E.g. ref name=fnpprofile and ref name=fnpprofile/ rather than ref name="fnpprofile"/ saves a few electrons.
using {{cite news}}, the newspaper would be the "publisher=", is the usage I see. A "work=" might be part of describing an item as something unusual, different than a newspaper article, but i am not sure what. Maybe the work= field is more useful with {{cite book}}.(never mind, i was wrong per {{cite news}})- and Frederick News-Post has an article so can be wikilinked (and is hyphenated)
- date of the newspaper article is more important than the accessdate,
- So i'd revise from Jessica[1]
- to Fitzwater[2]
- (Oops, I have accessed the FNP too many times so it won't let me see the article and get the correct author and publication date here, so I just put in the ones that were correct for Bud Otis's profile, instead).

I was only ever interested because I saw Cunard making legitimate points at wp:AN or wp:ANI and I thought Cunard deserved support. cheers, --doncram 03:50, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Hirshhorn
Hi, I just wanted to let you know I've been in contact with User:Artmaven77 and other folks at the Hirshhorn museum about the recent policy violations that happened on Melissa Chiu's article. First of all, thank you for your work defending the Wiki from undisclosed COI, self-promotion, and sockpuppetry. I really wish that her husband hadn't decided to take matters into his own hands, but it is too late now I suppose. He is far from the first to get tripped up in this fashion. Anyway, I'm talking with other Smithsonian and Hirshhorn staff to try and increase their awareness of about how to edit ethically and avoid COI. I hope that, in the end, the result will be a better, more useful encyclopedia around art-related topics and biographies. Cheers, Sarasays (talk) 02:40, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for the note and for your involvement. Its great that the Smithsonian has someone on staff who is familiar with acceptable Wikipedia policy and discourse. Bangabandhu (talk) 06:04, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
Jack Evans and DC Council
Hi, I do mostly agree with your opinions that the Jack Evans page is poorly organized and contains some random, piecemeal information. As I mentioned, I am trying to improve the pages for dc government officials and information generally. Some of those pages are in need some serious attention and it seems like you have the interest and research knowledge of local sources to provide excellent content. Phil Mendelson is my first, major endeavor, as he is Chairman of the Council and his page contains very little information, but [Yvette Alexander]'s page also lacks rich detail.Anonymouse202 (talk) 20:40, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. You write Phil Mendelson is my first, major endeavor. It looks like you've deleted more text than you've added. Good luck. Bangabandhu (talk) 20:50, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
