Ronn Torossian article

I have an absolute right to use and distribute that picture. It bewilders me that people find so much issue with Ronn that they even give trouble to a photo. Please advise and help. Regardless of what you might think of the subject of this article, rights to a picture that I have should not be part of the constant commotion on his page. Juda S.

added again and with the license, which i did have on before as well. thanks Juda S. Engelmayer (talk) 15:08, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Click and the self-description is:'An incredibly wonderful individual who harnesses her superior literacy and vocabulary skills to educate an biased public.'

I'm still trying to figure out why 'b' in 'biased' here morphs into a vowel that requires the euphonic 'an' form of the indefinite article. I bridle in my harness at this illustration of my inferior illiteracy.Nishidani (talk) 13:21, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

I think it's because of the elided "œ" ligature - pronounced "oy, biased". --Ravpapa (talk) 13:27, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

I hope that's not a misprint for 'goy, biased', too close to the Nishidani bone for comfort! Ay? Oy! Cheers. Nishidani (talk) 14:01, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Excellent suggestion, added Internetwikier (talk) 13:33, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Elance editing

I think WP:PE is the relevant policy here. He's free to edit on behalf of someone else, but he's not disclosing the arrangement and engaging in discussions pretending to be a disinterested party. I'm away from my home computer for most of the day but I can start a report on WP:COI, possibly tonight. Not exactly sure what the sanctions are, though. Mosmof (talk) 14:49, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

I leave the matter in your capable hands. If you need anything from me, drop me a line. --Ravpapa (talk) 15:04, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

United Synagogue

I have added a response to your rant on the admins discussion page. I'd suggest that you find the time to find some new quotes / sources as the altering of direct quotes does not fall within purview as a wiki contributor.

I have no issue with information ADDED to the page - but you don't do this. All you do is remove / reverse changes. Please add new sources and stop your racist denigrating of Iranian news organizations which have just as much right to exist as FOX news.Internetwikier (talk) 13:18, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

Criticism of the US

Hi. I'm confused. Neither of the two references you've given seem to mention the United Synagogue. --Dweller (talk) 09:39, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

You are right. You will find specific references to United Synagogue on their websites. But I thought that it would be a bit over the edge to cite their websites. But, in fact, the whole thing is kind of iffy. Maybe you were right the first time, we should just delete it. --Ravpapa (talk) 10:17, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Re:GoldMoney

The article at the time of the afd and the article as it appears here were enough alike that G4 applied, so I exercised that right to delete the article on grounds that the recreated version and the deleted version were essentially the same. TomStar81 (Talk) 06:00, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Tibet at List of Military Occupations

Hi, I don't know if you're active anymore but I'm trying to resurrect the Tibet discussion at the List of Military Occupation if you want to chime in. Sir Joseph 05:12, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
