::FYI, my comment to your reply. The latest change was sourced to a blog (not ]) (also note I was unable to open the referenced URL), and contained materiel saying she (being Jewish) has stated that she considers "Jews racist" (not ], clearly). Prior edits were unsourced and appeared to be deliberate errors. I discovered only through vandalism patrolling - I am not an editor of that article and my only interest in its content is that it be well sourced and meet guidelines. --] (])
:::In BLP cases, it is always best to err on the side of caution and revert; I have no problems with your approach there. When I looked at the URL for that last edit, it did appear to be a bit less a blog and more a news article. However, I accept that anyone with good HTML editing skills can make things look more authorative, and I might have been erring on the side of caution a bit too much the other way.

:::What I would suggest is that if someone adds a reference and you can't view it, it is hard to know that it is vandalism. If you are in doubt as to the validity of the source, by all means revert it, but explain your reasoning why on the talk page. In an ideal world, someone else will check, the original editor can state their case, and this would encourage discussion and hopefully move to resolution before reaching content dispute. I appreciate that this does not always happen, but one can at least try! LOL! ''']''' <sup><small>'']''</small></sup> 09:28, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

The departure of a great Wikipedian happened today

Hi! :( Just would like to inform you that we have lost one of our greatest editors, Neurolysis. Have you met him/her before? He left a {{Retired}} template on his talk page.--Berlin Approach | Lufthansa 533 at FLT230 10:18, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Do you care to any of the victims of the Padang Quake?

If you do, tell me of anything you've donated to the victims, or to any Padang Wikipedian, which also seems to be a victim of the disaster.--Berlin Approach | Lufthansa 533 at FLT230 10:31, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Whilst I'm sure your motives are completely above board, please can I draw your attention to two policies - namely WP:CANVAS and WP:SPAM. Dropping notes on people's talk pages about donating to charity is not going to win you any friends, and at worse, may result in blocks. Also, who I choose to donate to or not is entirely my affair and no one elses. Stephen! 11:56, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
Well, according to these two links, not only a donation, a PM is also something adhering to WP:SPAM. Asking personal questions can result in WP:SPAM as well, if the question adheres to games, anything outside Misplaced Pages. Whoa, I think I'm getting that Uw-spam4im warning. I asked something about your Facebook page. Warn me if necessary.--Berlin Approach | Lufthansa 533 at FLT230 11:15, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
I'm not going to put a formal warning in, just consider yourself a bit wiser now, and try to stick to Misplaced Pages related articles.
On a completely unrelated note, could you vary the number of colons (::) you put at the start of a line when replying? It makes it easier to follow threads. The usual method is the first person to reply would use one colon, the second two colons, the third three colons, and so on. If it gets indented too much, then someone usually starts afresh with "(outdent)" at the start of their text. Thanks. Stephen! 11:59, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
