Please do not start this again, take any edits to talk page first.Slatersteven (talk) 15:48, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Somedifferentstuff, Hi there, hadn't seen your comment here before last edit. Start what, sorry? Mdmadden (talk) 16:05, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Adding swaths of material that will just get deleted for example how is his ancestry about his early life, and how did he start the Texan revolution?Slatersteven (talk) 16:08, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why would it "just get deleted"? Where did it say he started the Texan revolution? Please quote, not following you there...(?) Mdmadden (talk) 16:10, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Jones has declared ancestry "at the core on both sides" of his family, starting the 1835 Texas Revolution against General Santa Anna."

That says (in effect) that his discussion of his ancestry stated the Texan revolution.Slatersteven (talk) 16:12, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And what has this to do with his early life, he was not alive at the time?Slatersteven (talk) 16:15, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No that's not really how "in effect" works. eg. my grandfather helped defeat the Nazis. Doesn't mean (in effect) that I did. His other ancestry is in the 'Early Life' section, maybe we should have a subsection on ancestry alone, that will likely help. I will raise with you on subject talk page, from here on out. It's not the best place for this conversation here. Cheers. Mdmadden (talk) 16:19, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No but that is not what it says. This is like saying that "My grandmother was important to me and WW2 started". You need to reword this to make any sense.Slatersteven (talk) 16:26, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Will will reply no more here, lets keep this in one place.Slatersteven (talk) 16:27, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, will do. Thanks Mdmadden (talk) 16:28, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding dubious or poorly sourced material, read sources before adding them please.Slatersteven (talk) 17:13, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Slatersteven, what is the source in question, and what aspect of it didn't correlate with added text to Wikipedia? Please provide evidence to claims. Mdmadden (talk) 17:14, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your source for the claim Jones believes Trump has weather weaponize, it does not say Trump (try looking at the date it was published).Slatersteven (talk) 17:16, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The date is post-Donald Trump's election. Either way, good point, the claim is about the office of President, not whoever personally is President. I'll change it, cheers Mdmadden (talk) 17:19, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It was not post inauguration.Slatersteven (talk) 17:21, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly, good point. Mdmadden (talk) 17:22, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is why we are asking you to suggest edits on the talk page first, it save a lot of work undoing faulty edits.Slatersteven (talk) 17:23, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Metro

I've moved the section you added to Metro (British newspaper) to metro.co.uk as the article was authored by a digital content creator and presumably did not also appear in the newspaper. --79.75.144.206 (talk) 01:50, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/CyboDuck, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
