Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 00:11, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Warned per the AN3 complaint

Hello Startropic1. Your edit warring complaint at Wikipedia:AN3#User:Walter Görlitz reported by User:Startropic1 (Result: Protected) has been closed. The article has been fully protected for two weeks and both parties are warned against further personal attacks, such as use of the word 'lies' or attributing malice to the other person.

In answer to your question at Talk:Larry Norman: "How are documents and recordings he shares on his site which are DIRECTLY from the Larry Norman Estate NOT valid sources?!" Because they are not published by a WP:Reliable source, such as a newspaper, magazine or book. EdJohnston (talk) 04:32, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Your logic fails, how can RECORDINGS be published in a newspaper, magazine, or book? Notarized documents, (such as the ones published on that site), are admissible in a court of law, how is this insufficient for Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Startropic1 (talk • contribs) 15:17, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorry for intruding, but I'd like to point out that it's not his logic, it's Wikipedia's logic.

In response to your question I'd be interested to know what recordings are you considering to be RSes and how do you intend them to be used? Template:Cite AV media notes allows editors to use liner notes as sources. As a primary source, they should be only used to support the existence of something directly related to the album such as a track name, duration, personnel, recording locations or a specific lyric. WP:NOR would preclude any interpretation of the lyrics though. As for notarized documents, you're right, they are admissible in a court of law, but are not admissible on Wikipedia, however the court proceedings can be used, provided that they're public and unedited.

I don't know that EdJohnston is watching this page so you may want to edit his talk page and add {{talkback}} ~~~~ to the bottom of it. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:24, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

If you're going to use the crossrhythms.co.uk interview with Charles, you might want to use this link rather than the individual pages: http://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/articles/print.php?Article_ID=48678 Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:50, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Editing

Is there a reason why your account has not edited in an article yet? Kingjeff (talk) 04:49, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

From his comment near the top of the 3RR report, it seems that Startropic1 is acknowledging the edits of 71.168.245.210 (talk · contribs) as his own. EdJohnston (talk) 06:04, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

BLP Survey

On the BLP survey, it would be helpful if you were to add a sentence of two explaining why you support/oppose. --Guy Macon (talk) 04:26, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps a BDP (deceased) area needs to be created as it seems some people on your survey dispute the relevance of deceased persons to the BLP board. Startropic1 (talk) 17:01, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
