Greetings MrOllie I have been working on the edits of Dr Davis, as you would know. I just wanted to run by a few links from you before editing them. During my research I came across the Nobel Peace Prize 2007, which was given to Al Gore and IPCC. Upon further research I came to find that Dr. Davis was one of the lead authors of the report and team that won the Nobel. I have also found out that in 2012 IPCC has clarified that the Nobel Peace Prize was given to IPCC as an organization and not to any one particular individual. This made me think, whether or not it could be said, "Davis worked as one of the lead authors and team lead for IPCC, on the report that won the Nobel Peace Prize." I am mentioning the links below and awaiting your guidance.

ClimateShield, I wouldn't personally. You should raise it on the article talk page, other editors may wish to comment. MrOllie (talk) 20:37, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MrOllie Ok.

tell me, please, how corporate self-promotion (whalewisdom(https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=whalewisdom&title=Special%3ASearch&fulltext=1&ns0=1)- 10 links,insidermonkey(https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=insidermonkey&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns0=1)- 12 links) differs, or maybe, corporate spam not spam at all? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poul Revere (talk • contribs)

Wikipedia is a large site and volunteer time is limited. The presence of other problem links is not a reason to make more work for us by adding more spam. - MrOllie (talk) 13:53, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

///so, you prefer deliberately close your eyes on corporate spam, even if provided with proof? very comfortable, if not also profitable! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poul Revere (talk • contribs)

• Poul Revere, we clearly don't close our to corporate spam, which is why MrOllie reverted your additions of spam links. And if you do that again, you will be blocked. Now, if you intend to improve our beautiful project, you might could look at those other articles and remove any spam links. Thank you, Drmies (talk) 15:46, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Dear MrOllie, those hedge fund articles are awful. Drmies (talk) 15:51, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  Drmies, They sure are! 1 part promotional text to 1 part listing routine business activity no one really cares about. But at least we are accurately mirroring the flaws of the financial press, I suppose. MrOllie (talk) 16:13, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

so, eventually, no disabling for these links their authors, no blacklisting for the corps, only small talks with a threat to me

Drmies, MrOllie, in a matter of fact, even if I waste my valuable time for free and edit those spam cases instead of you, your ClueBot NG count it as vandalism and reverting, so you could keep protecting corporate spammers such as walewisdom, gurufocus, insidermonkey, and so forth as you please, you are confirmed hypocrites. Under disguise of spam-fighting, you just provide pro-corporate censorship.

Hi Mr. Ollie,

I just received your message regarding our contribution to Wikipedia. We are not a large corporation. We are a small Indigenous social enterprise from a remote community in Northern Canada that added a factual category to the Wikipedia page "Hand Warmer". While the use of links to our website may violate rules, the complete removal of the sheared beaver fur product category is not accurate nor a reflection of available hand warmers. We have since revoked your complete removal of the hand warmer type. The citations remaining do not point to our website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seanmhougan (talk • contribs)

With or without the links, and regardless of how large or how small your organization is, Wikipedia is not a site to place advertising content. - MrOllie (talk) 20:04, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nor, Seanmhougan, may you edit on behalf of an enterprise, as you state above. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 20:05, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for informing us. Would you be so kind and add the sheared beaver fur category to the product page then so it represents factual and full information? I'm confused as to why you have not flagged the link going to Zippo's website? That is a corporate website that sells one of the product categories. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seanmhougan (talk • contribs)

No. That page is about powered warmers, chemical or electric. What you're writing about are mittens. - MrOllie (talk) 20:11, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They are not mittens. They are fur inserts that act in the same way as chemical inserts by insulating one's own body heat. Small piece of sheared beaver fur that is inserted into a mitten like the chemical inserts. The title of the page is "Hand Warmer" which encompasses just that. Sheared beaver fur hand warmers do all things listed in the introduction paragraph:

• held in the hand and produce heat on demand to warm cold hands • commonly used in outdoor activities • other types of *sheared beaver fur warmers* are available to provide soothing heat for muscular or joint aches

You're describing a mitten. That's what a mitten is. If you wear it inside another mitten, that's just wearing two mittens. - MrOllie (talk) 20:58, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I added some of my OWN published content, and this is deemed 'promotion'?. It is a source of multiple publish information, written by myself. I'd like to provide this information for others, so am confused as to why I don't meet the criteria after having read what was required — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pete Hawkins (talk • contribs)

Yes, linking your own content is considered promotion. Also, self published material does not meet wikipedia's sourcing standards. - MrOllie (talk) 12:25, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There are so many links to random reptile care-sheets (some are awful) from just regular people with a website. My content is peer reviewed for publication in various magazines, etc, and are used by many. I'm just trying to provide relevant, updated, and importantly, correct information.

Dear MrOllie,

I am new to providing content to Wikipedia, so perhaps I lack some basic knowledge, but why is my addition of TICS to the list of static code checking tools removed? And more importantly, what should I do to get it back on again? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FreeBeeJee (talk • contribs)

That's a list of software that already has an article. If you would like to start an article see WP:AFC and Help:Your_first_article MrOllie (talk) 16:06, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Mr. Olli I am afraid you are wrong with your notations. We have this public up which belongs to a computing center depending from a public well known university. This IP is used by professors and students, probably some of them are detractors or exegetes of M. Korstanje, he is a specialist in tourism but we have no links to him. Please avoid to block us for this reason. we are not starting any campaign. Many students edit Wikpedia content because it is part of the curricula.

Stop spamming his name (or take a walk down to his office and ask him to stop) and you will have no further problems. - MrOllie (talk) 17:24, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

no intention to disturb. Korstanje lives in England, not here in Argentina .. probably a student was populated Wikipedia with his references I have no clue really. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.168.57.106 (talk • contribs)

How strange, several pages around the web say he works for a uni in Argentina. - MrOllie (talk) 21:29, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I do not know really where he lives now, I attended a conference two years ago where he was a keynote speaker. he was working in Leeds U, West York, UK. I know Korstanje is included in my syllabuses and educational programs -as mandatory bibliography even here in the University of Buenos Aires, I bet a student want to introduce him obsessively. He hates social media and is not active on the net.
