RE: reverting Jason Narvy

Hey, instead of taking the easy way out and reverting my edit, why don't you contribute to the community by Googling around and citing a source yourself, you laggard ineffectual douchebag? Here, I'll make your job even easier and paste the source right here: http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/ http://cuchicago.edu/faculty/communications-and-theatre/jason-narvy/

Re: Steve Jobs

You've been here long enough to know that this is not how we edit Misplaced Pages. This information is all common knowledge and attributed to fully sourced parent articles. Viriditas (talk) 06:05, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

I'm sorry. What the fuck are you talking about? --damiens.rf 13:44, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

• Eh, he's just calling out some of your usual nonsense.--Milowent • 19:33, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

  Which one? The link is not working. --damiens.rf 20:04, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

  There is nothing wrong with the link. It shows your incorrect use of the {{citation needed}} template which I believe has been brought to your attention before. To refresh your memory, please pay close attention to the section named "When not to use this template" in the template documentation. Why you refuse to abide by best practice is the problem.

Quotations

If there's an unsource quote, like the one you removed from Robert S. Barton, it's OK to remove it. But it would be so much more constructive to take a quick look and see if there are reliable sources, e.g. in Google Books or Scholar, as there are many of for this one. Quotes are the easiest thing to look up. Just removing them without looking is harmful. You could also consider a cn tag if you don't want to bother looking.

Huh?

I really don't understand this. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 21:42, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Care to be more clear? I cared to elaborate a very explanatory deletion nomination. What are your specific questions? --damiens.rf 13:16, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi, and thanks for responding. I'm not sure that I agree that your nomination was "very explanatory." It seems to me that this is a historic image, one of the few that document this particular event in Venezuelan history. To call it "a trivial image of two men meeting" is very strange indeed. It would be like calling this a trivial image of three men meeting. Nope: it documents a historical event of some importance. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 15:14, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

WP:ITSHISTORIC puts it better than I could ever do: "It is important to distinguish between an image that is, itself, historic and notable in its own right (such as the photograph Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima), and a non-notable image that illustrates an historic event". --damiens.rf 16:44, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
