Restoration of Breanne Benson

I would like to ask to to move that article from my user space back to main article space. Morbidthoughts has apparently recreated it already by copy/paste but I see no point to lose the history here especially to prevent to re-do some mistakes and since that was the reason to actually userfy it. I don't think he wouldn't mind and already informated him on his talk page. The actress is now nominated for two awards for 2011 the nomination of 2005. Moreover she is will be Penthouse Pet of the Month (January) so I think that is enough to confirm notability. Or has that article to be taken to a DRV? Testales (talk) 05:49, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Well, the net effect is the same either way - her article is now present again. The only difference I can see if that he's (rightly I think) knocked the information from the Hustler article out. I'll make the same change in yours then move it. Tabercil (talk) 15:15, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
While you're at it, can you unsalt and restore Rachel Roxxx's article since she's added 3 more AVN noms this year? Morbidthoughts (talk) 15:22, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Done as well. Tabercil (talk) 15:24, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Well, I had her read over the article initially and she confirmed the now removed facts also in several live chats even though they may not serve as good source. So this information was correct, there was no risk to falsely claim something critical about the subject and therefore I had let it where it was. The actual main point here (beside the advantages of a complete history) was frankly Morbidthoughts blatant ignorance of the work that I had put into that article and his action to simply to re-create it by copy/paste is furthermore clearly contrary to the policies and procedures of Wikipedia, as can be read here "Do not move or rename a page by copying/pasting its content, because doing so fragments the edit history. (Wikipedia's copyright license requires acknowledgement of all contributors, and editors continue to hold copyright on their contributions unless they specifically give up this right. Hence it is required that edit histories be preserved for all major contributions until the normal copyright expires.). So thank you very much again for fixing that. Moreover let me add that you know that for WP:P* BLPs it is especially difficult to find sources that everbody would accept as reliable, even the AVN site gets regulary attacked as beeing promotional and therefore not acceptable as RS (just recently again, just see the discussions arround Rachel Roxxx and the related notability talk page). Let me also - without any specific implications - mention that Morbidthoughts actually has far more options to verify some facts than me if he only wants to since he is working for a known secondary source (IAFD). So I hope you can understand my point of view to this. Testales (talk) 16:49, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Well toss up the links to those live chats where she makes mention of the information and we can judge how reliable the sources are.
If you mean that really serious, what I remember right now is that she confirmed it in the recorded live chats on Naughty America, I think it was either in Nurse3 or Gym3, I could check that out exactly but unfortunately I doubt that this accepted as source on Wikipedia, isn't it? Anyway, just for clarification, her usual chats there were like 30 minutes chat, mainly answering questions plus some teasing/flashing and only like 10 minutes full sexual activity. They are also only available in the members section. Nevertheless Naughty America seems to be notable enough to deserve an own article on Wikipedia. Testales (talk) 17:21, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Hey Testales, sorry about the destruction of the article history. I did not know that I could have just moved your article from its userspace. About the Hustler article, I assume that you have the issue and all assertions of her early life came from there. However, as others have pointed out, many of the pictorials have fictitious biographies. We can not go and try to verify on a case by case basis with the subject whether it's true or not. If we have to do that, then the source does not have a reputation for fact checking. Yes, the reliability of a source is sometimes gauged in the context of how it is used; like using the howard stern site to demonstrate that someone appeared on the howard stern show. However using a magazine that has a history of fictional biographies for its pictorial models is not appropriate to establish biographical information about the model. Morbidthoughts (talk) 17:56, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
I can hardly believe that you don't know what the intention of userfication is, you are an experienced editor and there was also no reason for such haste. You did that hours if not minutes after that nominations appeared on their site. Moreover I think it's a matter of principle to give at least some credit when using the work of others, even if nobody "owns" an article. That was what made me really somewhat upset. I can not "fight" over what you have removed, the argument of the pictorials beeing not really a reliable source is not easy to defeat and that was also one reason that I had in mind when I wrote my little request on your talk page. But even if the rules are stronger when it comes to claims on BLPs, I don't think it was that critical that it had to be removed at all costs, especially as I made sure that this is alright. In the end you can always claim that a source has promotional interessts or that the listed fact is not really important and seen from a extreme position that is even correct. But in this case we would only have stubs at WP:P* and finally it's actually some additional background information that makes an article interessting, I just mention the changes in visual appearance here which are actually indeed of interesst for recognition purposes. I have already some more prepared, just not included yet. We might discuss that later if you really have a constructive interesst here. So far I can only thank Tabercil again who guided my through userfication, helped like when it came to the G4's and even answered questions via email. Testales (talk) 18:32, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Why would you assume that I knew what the intention of userfication beyond the obvious keeping a copy of the article so that a person can continue working on it? I do not have any experience with it since I'm not an admin to userfy a deleted article nor have I had to improve an article in my personal space to meet notability guidelines. My experience has been creating articles from scratch, using appropriate sources on the fly and not worrying about gaps in the article when there are a lack of sources. Pornography is an industry covered by few independent reliable sources, but we don't compromise standards to be completists. So I don't appreciate that your insinuation that my contributions/interests are not constructive. Morbidthoughts (talk) 19:28, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Ok, let's stop that here, it leads to nothing good, though I wonder how you would have felt in my situation, what impression you may have gotten. I'll try to contribute the one or other detail in the next time and we will see how it turns out. I would be glad if you do the same (adding) instead of only removing, whether it may appropriate or not, as the first one is much more diffcult and you proably have much better means to get information due to the contacts you seem to have. Testales (talk) 21:27, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. Let's chalk this up to miscommunication on both sides and leave it at that. Please. As for the live chats you mentioned in Nurse3 or such, pass the links along just the same... I can take a look and figure out their context to see if they might be considered useful. Tabercil (talk) 02:29, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Hitomi Kobayashi

Note that not only has the fair use image in the BLP infobox been removed (currently approved practice, I believe, though the image adhered to "policy" when it was originally uploaded), now fair use images of film posters/video covers in sections on those films/videos have been removed as "decorative", even though they still fit current "policy" (or at least "policy" last I checked). Unless all film posters are removed from all articles on films, this is a biased removal. Not that I give a fuck, of course, because I've seen this kind of shit go on and on and on here, and it is one of the reasons I have come to the realisation that it is a complete waste of time to contribute content here. Wikipedia is only a place to chat and troll. I just mention this to you because you seem to be one of the few Admins who does seem to give a fuck, occasionally. Dekkappai (talk) 01:55, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

I do think we're too strict in terms of when we can use fair use material, but I also know I can stick a finger in the air and get a clear sense of where the larger consensus is going. Tabercil (talk) 13:32, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Actually, the user you reverted and warned was undoing yet another attempt by an IP to change her birthday to 1981. The "ask men" reference states 1979. You may want to remove the warning. AniMate 00:26, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

You're right and done. Thanks for the catch. Tabercil (talk) 00:37, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
The only reason I caught it was because I almost did the exact same thing, but decided to check because that's back and forth has been going on for so long. Next time it happens, I'll either semi-protect the article or add it to pending changes. AniMate 01:00, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Re:

Sorry, ok!--Johnny Freak (talk) 23:32, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

It's just that not every image change you've made has been a good one - for instance, WTF were you thinking when you did the Tiffany Mynx one just now?? Tabercil (talk) 23:36, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
I wanted to remove only the nudity with another pic more suitable.--Johnny Freak (talk) 23:43, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
"Nudity"?? The Tiffany Mynx image is her wearing a bustier - there's skin, but no nudity. Tabercil (talk) 03:30, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Tabercil, you can't go mark his opinion as what is a better picture as vandalism. [1] I agree with some of his choices like Tory Lane and Ashton Moore. Morbidthoughts (talk) 00:39, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

The difference in quality between the two images is stark, and in my opinion constitutes a definite degradation. Tabercil (talk) 03:30, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Y'know what, on second thought, I've had it with all this image shuffling and screwing around. We've lost Toglenn over it - he sent me an email saying that he's not gonna contribute anymore if his images are removed (and they're used beyond the porn star sections, e.g. Hayden Panettiere). So I'm just gonna walk away from the P* stuff as well. There are other sections and topics on Wikipedia I'm interested in. Tabercil (talk) 03:36, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
No loss to me if he takes his ball and goes home. His actions had a deterrent effect on other users with the same rationale. Why would anyone donate a "non-revocable" license (for everyone) to an image only for someone else to replace it with his own image? He's a primadona in person so I don't take his threat seriously. Morbidthoughts (talk) 08:22, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Well at least he's contributing images to Wikipedia - I checked and he's got at least 500 images on Commons. Should I do the same to see how many there which you've contributed Morbid?? Tabercil (talk) 12:19, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Let me apparently be the first to tell you that wikipedia is not just about images. I'm not going to go placate his ego. Morbidthoughts (talk) 15:59, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Let me expand on this. You may remember that I once had a standing offer to donate any image from my Flickr on my profile, but all I kept getting were requests to replace images that I felt were perfectly adequate on wikipedia, especially just for identification purposes in an infobox. I could easily go and make it a point to replace every image of his that I felt was inferior to mine, but I recognise the disruptive impact it would have on the project. Morbidthoughts (talk) 16:17, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Well you'll probably have to step up for any new articles then, as I'm not aware of any source offhand. Remember, Toglenn's out and I'm not aware of anyone on Flickr who now routinely uploads with Wiki-friendly licensing from the get-go (Jimi has changed his license for the most recent images, and I'm not about to chase on that). Tabercil (talk) 16:24, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Since I am on friendly terms with Jimi, I'll ask him about the change although I suspect he wasn't happy with essentially giving a license to everyone to do as they please with his images. Anime Nut (Alan from Chicago) has always been gracious to donate images when asked. Morbidthoughts (talk) 16:34, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
Jimi has reset his flickr license to the appropriate CC settings. Morbidthoughts (talk) 17:33, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I undid your undoing of my correction to the Gabriella Wilde page; as my previous comment to the image removal stated, the person pictured is not Gabriella Wilde.

Johnsmith877 (talk) 22:32, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Well you have two problems... the first is that the actress in question may not be notable by Wikipedia standards. You would be well advised to read WP:BIO for more information on that topic. The other problem is the image you're wanting to add to it is tagged as being copyrighted on Flickr and we don't allow those images on to Wikipedia. You'd either have to ask the Flickr account holder to change the license, or find a different image which does have Wiki-friendly licensing. Tabercil (talk) 21:54, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
Thanks you Tabercil.I got it...I will try to make in Russian Dana Vespoli...

Robin Bain images

Dear Tabercil,

Please accept my apologies for the misunderstanding regarding Robin Bain images.

I have gone through the proper channels and have obtained a “declaration of consent” from the photographer of the photo I would like to post for Ms. Bain. The license would be: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license. I am emailing the declaration to: permissions-commonswikimedia.org in order to post this more recent and representative photo of Robin Bain with OTRS consent.

I wanted to make you aware before I posted the photo and I can also forward the email from the photographer directly to you to confirm authenticity as I am making every effort to do this correctly and not run into any additional issues.

Can you please advise me if I am doing this right this time around?

Thank you in advance for your help and guidance in this situation.

Sincerely. Jhillx01 (talk) 21:26, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

If it's been kicked along to OTRS, then it's up to them to process and approve. Once that happens I have no problems with changing the lead image. Tabercil (talk) 04:08, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick response. I'm going to post the new photo in the commons area today and label with OTRS pending, until it is approved. Jhillx01 (talk) 18:07, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Please see this link for uploaded file. An "permissions" email was sent to OTRS today. Can you let me know if everything looks to be okay so far? Thanks for your help. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Robin-Bain-photos.png Jhillx01 (talk) 23:59, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Offhand, I think you should've uploaded it to Commons, and send the email to the OTRS queue for there... that way the image can be used on all languages and not just English. As it is, I'm going to wait for the OTRS ticket to get attached to it before adding it to Robin's article. Tabercil (talk) 00:02, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

The OTRS ticket has been attached and the photo was uploaded to Commons. Thank you for your help and patience with this. Jhillx01 (talk) 15:52, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

The reason I keep changing her birthday to 1967 is that is when she was born. I have listed my source and if you bothered to look at the screengrab you will see that she is a director of Pumpkin Films. Do your seriously believe there are two Cathy Barrys who are directors of Pumpkin Films? One born in 1967 and one in 1973???

I have explained what Companies House is. I am surprised no amazed that anyone who would claim to be an "editor" or authority to change other's edits would be unaware of this organisation.

The sites for Companies House and 192.com which lists every company director are both subscription-based, which is why I took a screengrab to use.

Finally, who on earth would want to fake a tiff from an information-based website and why? What possible benefit would there to me????

Go to www.192.com (https://corporate.192.com/trace/index.cfm#); pay the subscription fee and then search for "Cathy Barry Bristol" and you will find her details. It's illegal to provide misleading information regarding company directors. It's not a porn site which is the so-called "verifiable" source that you are using.

Dear Tabercil, I'm glad an administrator take part to this controversy.

Actually, I'm a french author currently writing about the reliabilty of the infortion on the web (I would be pleased to provide you with more detail out of this forum if necessary). I've recently came on this page promoting a false allegation (please read the details http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Victoria_Silvstedt and the history of the page).

Actually this seems to be a typical case of bombing a false vanity news on many sites, tring to build an usurpated fame. This way is mre and more used by people magazine and web fan club.

The best evidence I can provide You with the actual facts are the files of the official ski federation who never ever recorded any facts about the person cocerned.

Maybe this person deserve her fame for other remarkable facts, but we really ust be carefull not to promote false information

Wishing you the best arbitration

Non-free use disputed for File:Linda_Wong.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Linda_Wong.jpg. Unfortunately, I think that you have not provided a proper rationale for using this image under "fair use". Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. Note that the image description page must include the exact name or a link to each article the image is used in and a separate rationale for each one. (If a link is used, automated processes may improperly add the related tag to the image. Please change the fair use template to refer to the exact name, if you see this warning.)

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted after seven days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

I'll unblock you per your request, but I do suggest you read Commons:FAQ before you start uploading again. Any sign of further uploads of copyrighted materials will simply get you reblocked permanently. And if you have any questions about whether something can be uploaded, ask first.

Service award level

Herostratus (talk) 16:31, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Actuall, you use Template:service awards which automatically shows the correct level based on input of start time and number of edits. But while I was here updating people, I took the liberty of updating your edit count param of this template based on this, and so you bump up to the next level.

Talk:Demi Lovato

I noticed your recent edit there. I went through and cleaned out more of the cut-and-paste complaints about the awards. Since I'm the evil person that cleaned out the award table in the first place, I'm probably prohibited from taking action. Even if I wasn't, I'm not sure exactly what I would do, but I certainly think the whining is somewhere near disruptive, if it hasn't already crossed the line. Consider this an invite to take action if you think it is appropriate.—Kww(talk) 23:33, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

It's irritating but it's not at the point where I'd personally say it's over the line. Yet. I'll keep an eye on it and act if the whining continues... Tabercil (talk) 04:30, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Tabercil. As someone who edits/looks after articles of musical artists, would you mind weighing in on the Talk:Chris Brown (American singer)#section 1.4 needs to be reWritten : 2008–09: Graffiti album and domestic violence case discussion? It's about whether or not Brown's domestic violence case should be divided into its own section. We desperately need other editors weighing in on the matter.

The problem is not the inclusion but the weight and prominence you're giving her former name. There was an agreement some time ago that the application of the BLP policy necessitated not putting former names that the person was never publicly known by in lead sections or infoboxes. Rebecca (talk) 03:38, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

So we don't place it in the infobox. It's still should be in the main text. Tabercil (talk) 04:02, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Notable / Non-notable??

Noob question... I noticed you deleted the entry for a pornographic actress by the name of Cody Lane. There are countless entries for pornographic actresses. What determines whether or not they are "notable"? 70.125.141.51 (talk) 01:51, 12 May 2011 (UTC) Sasquatch

Sorry for butting in but there are a number of guidelines a person can qualify as "notable" under such as WP:GNG but for porn stars, there is WP:PORNBIO. Dismas|(talk) 03:25, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Question

Is User:TabercilPorn related to you? If not, then something odd is going on over at my talk page; someone is using the names User:TabercilPorn and User:Mike south atlanta, and I note that Mike South was created by you a long time back. --Floquenbeam (talk) 04:59, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Nope - I have no other ID on Wikipedia. In fact Tabercil is (as far as I know) a unique word that specifically points to me, as I've never found any Google results for "Tabercil" that weren't about me. I'm personally tempted to block TabercilPorn on impersonation grounds alone... Tabercil (talk) 12:21, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
I was leaning that direction myself; I too couldn't find anything on Google that wasn't either a WMF page related to you, or a mirror/content scraper/etc. If Tabercil isn't a company, and you basically created the word, then considering your editing area I don't see how that name can be anything other than an impersonation or a troll. Since he's moved on to another name, I'm going to block User:TabercilPorn for username issues. Which brings me to his other username, User:Mike south atlanta, a problematic username when the user is trying to convince me that Mike South's blog is a reliable source. Would you agree that this is also pretty much a different type of "impersonation", even if he says he isn't actually named Mike South? Add to that the "I use three accounts to protect my privacy" comment, and I think we have a potential problem. I'm glad to see you're taking a look at Monika Star; I know basically nothing about porn star article standards, and couldn't find anything obviously wrong with it (unlike his first, now deleted, article). So I can't tell if this is more a username issue, or a trolling issue, or a competence issue. --Floquenbeam (talk) 12:55, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
I'd say he is intending to trade in Mike South's profile within the porn biz to add heft to his own edits, so he needs to choose a new name. I mean, if his handle was "Mike Smith Fan" or such that'd be a different story but "Mike Smith Atlanta" is too close to the existing person for comfort given the probable area of editing. As for Monika Star... the key thing I'd want to do is to double-check the noms to make sure that she was indeed up for those awards as they'd qualify her under WP:PORNBIO and WP:ANYBIO guidelines. I'll drop a note on User:Dismas's talk page asking if he can't verify the noms (I'm at work right now so that's not possible). Tabercil (talk) 14:09, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Elizabeth Mitchell Picture

I am not very good with Wikipedia and I know you have much more experience than me. The picture of Elizabeth Mitchell is very unflattering and I see you have discussed her picture before some time ago. I was wondering if you had time to perhaps change the picture to a photo from Music Fashion Magazine because I believe they are more accurate photos of her. Thank you Minilost27. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Minilost27 (talkcontribs) 08:07, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Diane Kruger

Dear Tabercil

Could you please keep a watch over the page Diane Kruger. There is a user, he keeps posting that she had a ADHD disease, and he uses a very unreliable reference. Obviosly the information is not true and the reference is not strong to prove it. Could you please keep an eye on that page. Because I get the feeling as if that user just wants to make Diane look bad and that is why he keeps posting that Diane had ADHD, could you please look into it. Many thanks in advance.

Dear Tabercil Thank you very much with all my heart. Middle-king (talk) 18:46, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Dear Tabercil, please explain me what's wrong with this source, since it has already been accepted by other Wikipedia Administrators on pages such as List of people diagnosed with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, by the time the page required approval. Thank you.

By the way, I'm not the only user who reverted you, Middle-king; I don't want to "make Diane look bad" like you said, I just wanna contribute with the informations I have. And why is the information "obviously not true"? You also said it was biaised on Diane Kruger's page, how is it biaised? I have a strong feeling that you have trouble dealing with the fact, and that you're trying to revert it for some reasons. ~ ~ Vokkare (talk) 21:56, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

I don't consider it to be a reliable source as I can't find any clear information about who is behind the site. 741.com is just a webhosting service, and the only author information given is "© 2011 ADHD women life" which is essentially the website name. In that absense, it's treated as a self-published source and as such can only be used as a source about itself. Making a statement about a third party (i.e. Diane Kruger, Avril Lavigne, etc.) is verboten. Tabercil (talk) 22:07, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

I think, typical Americans from tea party can not know the book of Michael Bulgakov the "Master and Margaret", but I will quote - "That is a fact. And fact is the most stubborn thing in the world!"

A hell of a lot more than you've shown so far. For starters, you have to edit consistently from a registered name. Also, from what you've said so far I'd guess English is not your native language.

I truly want to thank you for your hard work for Wikipedia. It is because of people such as yourself, that wikipedia is truly a better place, and it is always evolving to the next level. I think globally, everyone have to thank Wikipedia and people like you for making it possible to have a better and accurate source of information. I just wanted to make a small request; I know you are very busy, but it seems to me that, the individual who was told to stop putting the ADHD on Diane Kruger's page is very defiant to keep replacing back that same information into the page. I did not wanted to keep editing it because I thought he will just reverse my edits, so there was no point for me to do that. However I leave it in your hands and judgment. Would you please keep a permanent watch on Diane Kruger page to make sure the page remains accurate. I would really appreciate it. thank you. Middle-king (talk) 19:54, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
