{{helpme}} Recently someone editted my article by placing links related to an individual with a similar name and a case of child molestation. I deleted the links but am concerned that the same person may resort to similar attacks and perhaps with an even more horrible topics. Is there any way to identify and locate them to prevent another personal attack such as this? My creditibility and reputation is seriously important to my line of work and I value it highly. Any information or assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated. ~~Robert Hunnicutt~~

First, and most important, if you are Robert Hunnicutt, you need to be familiar with our conflict of interest policy. It is generally frowned upon for anyone to edit articles with which they have a close connection. As far as negative information, we have strict policies relating to the biographies of living persons. Any unsourced negative or potentially libelous content will be swiftly removed. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:18, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Also, please remember, it's not your article.  Chzz  ►  18:20, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I am Robert but did not create the article, I simply added new reference articles as they were recently printed. My apologies for referring to it as "my" article, but please understand that it is important to me as many people across the country do see it on a regular basis. If it would be better, I will have my secretary or other in my organization edit it in the future, I meant no disrepect or intentional rule breaking.

~~Robert~~

I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but as I look into this further, I have to ask you to apply to change your username. It violates our username policy because it clearly is being used to promote a particular organization or person. You can request a username change at WP:RENAME. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:45, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Not at all, this is all still very new to us all, the current user name is the one we use for most of our online sources because it is easy for the staff to remember. Please let me know if my request for change below is formatted correctly. Thank you again for your help and understanding.

Robert

I was going to mention this before, but I thought I didn't need to. Wikipedia has a one person/one account policy. You cannot share one account among multiple users. I know that from your perspective, all these rules are a pain in the neck, but this particular rule helps with accountability. Your staff will need separate user accounts. Besides, neither you nor your staff should be editing content related to you. You should allow some uninvolved third party to do the editing. This isn't a place to promote your self and, unfortunately, that is how it will always appear if you or your staff do the editing.
Additionally, all of your hard work in creating content is appreciated, but I can't find any sources that establish the notability of Robert Hunnicutt as outlined by our notability policy. I'm going to nominate the article for deletion because of this. Don't feel that this is a slight against you personally, this nomination will do two things: First it will bring the article to the attention of a wider audience of editors, second, this wider attention will help us to find sources to establish notability or determine that the subject is not notable. If the decision of the community is to keep the article, you generally won't have to worry about it being deleted in the future. You are welcome to participate in the discussion. There will be a ink here on your talk page when the discussion begins. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 19:27, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

AfD nomination of Robert Hunnicutt

edit

I have nominated Robert Hunnicutt, an article that you have edited, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert Hunnicutt. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 19:31, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply


Just curious, why have you even bothered to assist me in getting this straighted out if you intended all along to delete the article. I can only type so fast, why can't you give me enough time to fix the problems. If you guys had given me this info over a period of time there wouldnt be a problem. How about a little time? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mnengrmh (talkcontribs)
In the process of trying to help sort things out, I was unable to find any support for notability. If you are indeed notable enough to warrant an article, you will have one, but it needs to happen in the absence of your own input. This is one of the ways that we can ensure that articles are of high quality, that they are free of bias, and they are written from a neutral point of view. The AfD should last 5 days. The article shouldn't be deleted during that time and if it is updated in the meantime to meet the requirements, that will be taken into consideration during the discussion. (I emphasize shouldn't because it could be deleted if the consensus to delete is overwhelming.) -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 19:46, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply


Just because YOU don't think it's important, then why does my Talk Page present this?

You have too many rules and don't explain them adequately or fairly and you know it. You take the position of not being responsible because you can't be fair. Too bad If given time to correct the problems it would fit your opinion of being note worthy Talk:Robert Hunnicutt From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search

This article must adhere to the policy on biographies of living persons. Controversial material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted or if there are other concerns relative to this policy, report it on the living persons biographies noticeboard.

I understand that you are frustrated. This is not a question of whether I think you are not notable. If that were the case I would have just deleted the article. I put it up for discussion to make sure that the community agrees. This takes the decision out of my hands and gives you a better chance of being the subject of an article. As far as the rules are concerned, I can point you directly to the relevant policies and guidelines at WP:BIO and WP:YOURSELF. Read those, and then make an argument here as to why you feel that you meet the objective criteria that were set forth by the community. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 20:02, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
At this point MUFKA, I don't trust you at all. Fact is, I'd rather discuss this with your superior if there is such a thing there because I believe you have taken it upon yourself to make an example of the article. If you took the time to do a google search for Robert Hunnicutt and Bob Hunnicutt, you'd see there's more than enough reasons for the article. To be honest, I don't really care one way or another if you delete it now or not. It wan't done by myself but one of my group members after shooting a 5 part documentary. They followed the article on Patrick Burns as a template and upon inspection, his is pretty much the same as mine with a few differences. An article on Wikipedia does not define or qualify my contributions to research or investigation. The next time you film a television program for Turner South or a film company, become the featured guest on Coast to Coast AM and other radio programs around the world, then we can exchange resumes. Otherwise, just keep sitting in front of your computer putting your opinions and what little power your exercise and then we'll talk. It's obvious you don't know the meaning of customer service or being helpful or you would have allowed me to correct the problems and list the sources you deem necessary. Hopefully, they don't pay you for your work because you have done nothing today but to demonstrate your total disregard for the opinions of others.

No, I'm not a black president, a British King, a television star or even an author, but I have been featured in enough magazines, radio shows, newspapers and television programs to not even lose a drop of sweat over an insignificant persons opinion on what is relevant and what is not.

I'm sorry that you feel this way. We have processes that help us to ensure that we can maintain a quality encyclopedia. The system is not perfect, but there are a lot of volunteers that put a lot of effort into maintaining it. Your response is an important example of why we have conflict of interest policies. They may not seem fair to you, but they are as objective as we can make them. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 21:59, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Robert Hunnicutt. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 21:22, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

It's not the policies I have a problem with, it's your attitude. Go ahead and delete the article NOW. You won't let me delete it or edit it to a point no one will know it's supposed to be me. After checking you out, it's obvious why you have an issue with me, maybe Darwin should begin chlorinating your gene pool.

  This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Robert Hunnicutt.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 03:14, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

WHY CAN"T I EDIT MY OWN DAMN PAGE! YOU WON"T DELETE IT AS I REQUESTED SO WHY CAN"T I REMOVE PERSONAL INFORMATION I DON"T WANT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SERVICE
You people are ridiculous! FIrst I ask for help with a problem after my page has been up for over a year and I get raped by one of your volunteers who doesn't know customer service if it bit him on the ass. Either delete the article about me or allow my people to put back the way it was before KUFA or whatever his name is raped it.
HOW DO I PROCEED WITH THIS? If a user thinks an administrator has acted improperly against them or another editor, they should express their concerns directly to the administrator responsible and try to come to a resolution in an orderly and civil manner. However, if the matter is not resolved between the two parties, users can take further action (see Dispute resolution process below). For more possibilities, see Requests for comment/User conduct: Use of administrator privileges and Administrators' noticeboard: Incidents.

Your question about how to deal with an article about yourself

edit

Hi there. I came across your talk page here and it seems you're a little aggravated about the state of the article about yourself. I'm not an adminstrator, just another editor, but there's a page on Wikipedia that you might find helpful called Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Help. If you go to that link, you will find suggestions for how to deal with this article. Hope this helps! Raven1977Talk to meMy edits 17:15, 4 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
