hint

Please be cautious about including "philanthropist" in the lede, unless there's really something major. A number of NPP editors have begun to use it as an indication of likely promotionalism. DGG ( talk ) 22:26, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

DGG, Thanks for the hint. That's how most of the sources described him. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 23:21, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

of course they do. Most of the sources for a businessman are PR, at least to some extent, and most sources of any sort describe any one they are writing an article about in the most expansive way possible. That's why encyclopedias are different. DGG ( talk ) 06:31, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

A beer for you!

For your clean up on Marvin Heermeyer. Funny, from your editing you don't seem drunk as a rule. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:16, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

I am indifferent to your opinion on my edditing

Please don't edit my talk page anymore unless it involves article content. I will not be involving myself in you ABF offering anymore. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlmostFrancis (talk • contribs) 19:23, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

AlmostFrancis, I'm sorry you feel that way. It was a question, not an accusation. -- Slugger O'Toole (talk) 19:42, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

Of course it was a backwards accusation, no one is going to fall for this Slugger. To be clear, I commented on your TBAN because you talked about me without pinging me and made it seem like we have been working together as opposed to me just trying to keep your pro catholic editing inline with NPOV. Not wanting to make a diffless claim I looked through your contribs to find an example on an article I had not touched so as to be fair. Finding puffery I then edited the article. You can of course have the last word on you page but I please only ping me about article content. AlmostFrancis (talk) 19:50, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
