I saw the change that you just made. Maybe remove the plastic surgery part? It is referenced but may be an error by Fox News. Makes more sense if he wanted to do more pediatric surgery since he was a pediatric eye surgeon. Maybe have the other guy in the office prepare kids for surgery and he does it. Makes more sense than changing professions into plastic surgery.Acme Plumbing (talk) 05:34, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

You did not "take over". You help save the article from people who did not know how different (and notable) this murder was. The guy who planned the murder losing his eyesight makes the case even more weird. Eye for an eye? Acme Plumbing (talk) 03:32, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I'd simply deleted the previous entries as being nothing more than a declaratory statement. By all means, feel free to make a real article out of it. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 02:26, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
I understand if you feel strongly about the murderer-related AfDs. However, I don't really think it's fair play, or at least good form, to be patrolling my edits and specifically voting in all of my nominations. Presumably, AfDs in which the participants are the people who show up by chance are more representative of the community than the ones where you follow a nominator to all of his nominations in order to oppose them. As well, I don't know if you mean it that way, but it does feel sort of hostile to have someone copy and paste the same vote to something like 6 AfDs yours in half an hour, and then even again the next day when you create another one. Can we agree that it would be better to patrol the daily AfD subpages or sorted debates, rather than my personal contributions list? :-) Dominic·t 05:57, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Greetings,
Regarding your argument below:
Weak delete per WP:SALAT: "Selected lists of people should be selected for importance/notability in that category and should have Wikipedia articles (or the reasonable expectation of an article in the future)." If being a supercentenarian in life is not inherently notable, then it should not be in death either. Location (talk) 19:38, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
This list IS selected for notability: only about 1 in 1000 centenarians reaches "super" centenarian status...overall, only about 1 in 5 million persons in industrialized nations (and far fewer in developing nations) reach "super" centenarian status. Also, there are quite a few Wikipedia articles on supercentenarians. The problem is that some get news coverage, and others do not. The list, as rendered, is more demographically sound because it includes all validated 110+ deaths in year X, regardless of media bias.
To summarize, SOME supercentenarians are notable for age, and receive adequate coverage, but this coverage is often uneven and may be biased (for example, the oldest person in Scotland will get more coverage than the 5th-oldest person in Japan, even if the 5th-oldest person in Japan is older). Having a list balances out the imbalances.
Of course, one could just turn to the GRG lists, but they do not have the added feature of WIKILINKS. So the Wiki articles serve a function that exists nowhere else. These lists are encyclopedic. This is not a list of tomato cans.76.17.118.157 (talk) 19:50, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Interesting subject you have there! and some conflicting information to reconcile. I'm going to bring suggestions to you here, rather than add them myself, since I can see there is conflicting information out there and you have researched more thoroughly that I have.
For example, Lewis of Warner Hall (page 350) refers to him several times as "Colonel" Charles Lilburn Lewis, based on his service in the Revolutionary War as County Lieutenant of Albemarle County. I think that would be interesting to add if you consider it reliable, but his father is also referred to as "Colonel" so there might be some kind of mixup. Still, it clearly refers to them both as Colonel: "Col. Charles Lilburn Lewis, of Buck Island and Monteagle, was probably the oldest son of Col. Charles Lewis of Buck Island."
The Lucy article refers to him as "Dr." Charles Lilburn Lewis; is there any evidence that he was a doctor?
Was there some reason you didn't mention his Kentucky estate, Rocky Hill?
The flickr item implies that, like Lucy, he was buried at Rocky Hill. However, this may not be solid enough to include.

No problem at all! I find the whole battle of women getting into road running in the 1960s/70s really interesting. It shows how much the world has moved on, for the good, in a relatively short space of time. I think stories like those of Wilton and Switzer are also great examples of feminism in action, with both men and women working together to rightly upset the prevailing mindset. Good work!

Thank you for being bold and making changes to the page. I've swapped the opening paragraph for the version in my proposal, though, since it's been up a while and seems to have consensus. I've modified it so that its also about victims, per the talkpage discussion. I think the opening of your version ("For notable criminal acts...") is problematic because the guideline is about determining notability in the first place. Do you get what I mean? In any event, I think the two versions have pretty much the same effect, so hope you'll be okay with that.
I think there are other issues still, so the job is not necessarily done and dusted, but we can continue to discuss that. Cheers. --FormerIP (talk) 03:38, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

The reason I had 1992 written as a year of Ikenaka's death is because I got this "information" from the Japanese Wikipedia. However, since that foreign article is still a Wikipedia article, it may not be sourced (which it was not).

Thanks for the compliment. Sometimes I come across an interesting story by chance when doing the research work on athletes! Pretty much the same thing happened with Ser-Od Bat-Ochir. One man's obscure Asian runner is another man's window into the increasingly global nature of everyday life. Good job on 2011 Boston Marathon by the way. I think it is a really positive thing to make note of both these important happenings at the elite level and the interesting little asides that are part and parcel of the biggest mass races.

Hi there. I'm the Online Communications Director for Newt Gingrich's campaign. I noticed the section on the Meet the Press interview you posted to the N.G. Presidential campaign page. I thought it was balanced. I am hoping you could provide a similar balance to the entitlement reform section of the Newt Gingrich Political Positions page. If you check the Talk:Political_positions_of_Newt_Gingrich page, you will notice that I posted a note requesting an edit of the entitlement reform section to also reflect Gingrich's explanation. Also, the language used currently ("however") seems inappropriate. Unfortunately there has been no response. Would you mind providing some balance to that section?

I wanted to alert you of an ongoing situation I am having with another user on the Adolph Rupp page. The situation has been ongoing for a few weeks now. A few weeks ago I went on the Adolph Rupp page to read the history of the coach. I was curious about his past and I did what I usually do to learn about something quickly, I checked his wikipedia page. When I read the page, I found it loaded with points that were not cited, extremely subjective, not in a neutral point of view and just generally slanted towards making the individual looks as good as possible. Many of the points that were cited were cited from a popular UK basketball blog.
I began to make some smaller edits and removing content that was not acceptable to an encyclopedia. Every edit that I made was reverted immediately by the same user. I also attempted to add in a section about some serious violations of NCAA rules that happened when Adolph Rupp was the coach at UK. Essentially, UK basketball was the first school to receive any penalty from the NCAA for rules violations. I added what I thought was a fair and objective section on the event that I cited to a few unbiased sources on the web. My edits were again reverted by the user. He claimed that my edits were not factual and completely inaccurate.
At this point I became frustrated and alerted another editor of this situation. This editor went through and made some changes to the page based on the same issues that I wrote about above, the article was not meeting academic standards at all. He was very helpful and neutral in his edits. However, the user who was reverting all these edits became angry and combative to the changes being made to the page. Eventually, we were able to reach consensus on a few points. However, this user kept changing the page even after we agreed on the edits to be made. He also added all the other sections back in that were not written in a neutral point of view. A few days ago, he made over 45 edits to the page.
This user has a long history of making biased edits to UK basketball pages. He also has a long history of reverting any other edits to the pages that he personally disagrees with. He literally owns the Adolph Rupp page. I have since given up on trying to make the page historically accurate or meet Wikipedia's standards for content. No matter what changes I make or anyone else makes, he will revert them or rewrite them later to suit his own point of view. Why is a user like this still able to make edits to pages on wikipedia?
Leochews (talk) 06:40, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello Location, this is just to let you know that I moved the article you recently created to User:Location/John F. Kennedy assassination conspiracy theories. As it was, it was showing up in Special:NewPages and it would show up in any searches that readers do. These things won't happen if you keep it in your userspace, so it's probably better to keep it there before you put it back in the main article. Just make sure that you attribute the text properly if you copy and paste it back in. Let me know if you have any questions about this. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 14:39, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello Location: I hope you will provide an email address at which I can directly communicate with you concerning the writeup of David Lifton, author of BEST EVIDENCE. I am closely associated with Lifton, who is now 72 years old, and rushing to complete his life's work on the Kennedy assassination with his new book, FINAL CHARADE, which focuses on Lee Oswald. He has been very concerned that the constant editing an re-editing of his entry in Wikipedia has been so severe that the result was a writeup that did not even contain a reasonable or accurate summary of the basic thesis of the book. Please communicate with me via my talk page. Thank you. MardinEden5. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MartinEden5 (talk • contribs) 13:42, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
Dear Mr. Location: Could you please explain to me why it is that your editing keeps removing from the Wikipedia writeup of David Lifton the central thesis of his work? Do you not think it appropriate that readers of the entry describing him, and his work, should contain a proper--if brief--summary of his work? The central thesis of Lifton's work is that the President's body was altered, prior to autopsy. (By "altered" is meant the removal of bullets from the body, and the changing of the character of the wounds, prior to autopsy). The result (per the central thesis): President Kennedy's body was tantamount to a medical forgery at the time of autopsy--i.e., the autopsy conducted at Bethesda Naval Hospital, outside Washington, D.C., some six hours after the Dallas murder. The result: the written autopsy report relied upon by the Warren Commission was not a reflection of the medical facts at the time of President Kennedy's assassination (at 12:30 PM CST in Dallas) but rather the way the President's body appeared at 8 PM that night, at the Bethesda autopsy. As I assume you are probably aware, the treating physicians in Dallas said that President Kennedy was shot from the front; the Bethesda autopsy said he was shot from behind. Communicating this thesis is central to a proper understanding of Lifton's life work, which was a major national best seller (in 1981) and was published three more times by three different publishers (1982, Dell; 1988, Carroll and Graf; and 1993, New American Library). Please explain what has to be done so as to state the thesis of BEST EVIDENCE, without that material being constantly removed, as if it were somehow in violation of Wikipedia's rules. Surely there is a way of communicating to Wikipedia's readers the central thesis of Lifton's life's work, without having you, or anyone else, constantly editing out the key sentences. Please explain and clarify, so that this problem can be addressed. If you were editing Charles Darwin's "Origin of the Species," would you remove the sections explaining "natural selection"?? This is the sort of problem that seems to be faced here. The word "conspiracy" does not adequately explain what David Lifton's book is about; terminology like "wound alteration" or "body alteration" is necessary.

The article about WikiProject Athletics would serve as the beginning of a special "Summer Sports Series", giving you an excellent opportunity to draw attention to the project's efforts and attract new members. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Multiple editors will have an opportunity to respond to the interview questions, so be sure to sign your answers.

Hello. When I commented on this discussion page that the CHP policy for stranded female motorists was changed because of this disappearance you asked if I had a source for this statement. The LA Times reference for this on the Wiki page is behind a Paywall (as are the other Times references.) I went to the Los Angeles Library and purchased a copy of this article. It is now on my website: http://www.TheZodiacMansonConnection.com/victim_graham.html. It states the changes that were implemented and gives the reason for the change as being the Graham disappearance. I also put up an article from the San Mateo, California The Times of the same date that also states that CHP change and the similarities of other murders in the same area in a two year window around the Graham disappearance. (These are also related to on my website.) This article was obtained from NewspaperArchive.com. By the time I had gotten these articles on my site and was going to answer your question on the discussion page it had been archived. So I am telling you about it here.

Your recent editing history at Mark Lane (author) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Crime victims and perpetrators |
---|
Current version
Crime victims and perpetratorsA person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person. Where there is such an existing article, it may be appropriate to create a sub-article, but only if this is necessitated by considerations of article size. Where there are no appropriate existing articles, the criminal or victim in question should be the subject of a Wikipedia article only if one of the following applies: For victims, and those wrongly convicted of crime
For perpetrators
References
Proposed version
Crime victims and perpetratorsConsistent with WP:BIO1E and WP:BLP1E, a person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article. An article about a person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should only be created if one of the following conditions is met: For victims, perpetrators, and others associated with a criminal event or trial
For perpetrators only
Note: A living person accused of a crime is presumed not guilty unless and until this is decided by a court of law. Editors must give serious consideration to not creating an article about an alleged perpetrator when no conviction is yet secured. References

The spa tag for User:DezDeMonaaa is legitimate in that this is a new user whose first Wikipedia edit was in a a recent Afd. Your edit summary stating "[T]his is not the place to discuss accusations" is both accurate and ironic. Accurate in that it is true, and ironic that you have shown no interest in reigning in the accusations coming from your voting block. The tag is only a notice so that the user's editing history, which may reflect bias or lack of knowledge of Wikipedia policies and guidelines, is considered in closing.

I wanted to let you know that I have apologized to Tokyogirl79 for suggesting that she was perhaps not acting in good faith. Unfortunately, she made some undeniable mistakes on her talk page regarding the proposed deletion of the Camille and Kennerly Kitt article which made her look suspicious to both Robcamstone (talk) and myself; however, we all make mistakes. Anyway, it is very clear to me now that she is an honest Wikipedian. I truly wish that only administrators had the authority to propose articles for deletion because a lot of disagreeable experiences would not occur that way. The page in question has been around since December 2011, and since then it has only improved, and it had never been considered for deletion.

My name is Donald Taylor and I'm the Wikipedian-in-Residence with the University of Maryland Libraries, Historic Maryland Newspapers Project. The Historic Maryland Newspapers Project is a part of the National Digital Newspaper Program, a joint program of the Library of Congress and the National Endowment for the Humanities. We are digitizing historic state newspapers for inclusion in the Library of Congress's Chronicling America online digital collection of America’s historical newspapers.
We are conducting a survey of Wikipedia contributors who have cited Chronicling America as a reference in their edits to Wikipedia. It is the objective of our study to identify ways that Chronicling America might be made a better resource for people editing Wikipedia. We recently used Linkypedia to identify contributors who have used Chronicling America. As an editor who has made use of Chronicling America, we hope that you will take our survey.
If you are interested in taking our survey, you can do so at this website.
More information about the survey is provided before you begin answering survey questions. Participation in the survey is strictly voluntary. It should take you less than thirty minutes to complete. You must be at least 18 years old to participate. If you have any questions about this survey, you can contact Donald Taylor, Wikipedian-in-Residence for the Historic Maryland Newspapers Project, at dwtii@umd.edu, or Elizabeth Caringola, Historic Maryland Newspapers Project Librarian, at ecaringo@umd.edu.
If you decide to take this survey, please do so within a week, by Sunday, 3 August 2014.
Thank you for your contribution to our study.

I had added a 'see also' link to Anderson Cooper's page. Cooper freely admits that he worked as a CIA intern before becoming a journalist. The Wikipedia page on Cooper also claims that he has no training as a journalist. For these reasons a link to his page may be of interest to those who browse the Operation Mockingbird page. In other words, it is something that users may like to 'see also'.

This review was begun on 10 December; it's been 17 days. Nearly 200 revisions to the article have been made in the interim. WP:SYNTH is no longer an issue. WP:FRINGE was only so because the controversy surrounding Altgens #6 lay mostly on the fringe; the article never lent credence to any theory (at least, not after I got back in). WP:NPOV is no longer an issue; no theory of any kind is even mentioned, only observations and "controversy" that now are as strongly documented as mainstream ignorance will allow. Only WP:DUE remains wherein, once again, the controversy is now unquestionable in the main, and the update by Marrs is not undue in the context. (That Marrs is an award-winning journalist who now lives on the fringe does not detract from the fact that he is an award-winning journalist. )
I've worked on this article on and off for years. When it's a Good Article, that's not going to stop. (Frankly, I think it's FA-worthy, but I swore I'd never go through that again when the nom died on the vine.)
Two other editors have recommended that this article pass. If I'm correctly reading the GA process, that's on you as its original reviewer. Am I out of line to wonder why I'm still waiting? —ATinySliver/ATalkPage 04:09, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi Location, I'm curious what you think should be done about the A.W. Hill article since all the duplicate articles (Andy Hill (music supervisor), Andy Hill (music producer), Andy Hill (Film Music Supervisor) have been deleted. Does the AfD for Andy Hill (music supervisor) carry any weight in our decision? My instinct is to AfD this older article. I don't see anything at Google News, and there doesn't seem to be anything about him at Google Books. One book review is listed in the article as a reference, but this hardly a notable author makes. I don't think he qualifies as notable as an educator, as he is described as an adjunct faculty member for what does not appear to be a major educational institution. ? The article has been up for 5 years, so I guess he's had a good run here. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:26, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello, Location et al. I seem to be getting a crash course in Wikispeak, and I applaud the (relative) transparency of your decision-making process, though it does sometimes strike me as a little arbitrary. It's odd to listen in on a group of people whose identities are deliberately concealed, and among whom there may be none who've written a book, composed a piece of music, advanced a piece of legislation, or even parented a child, discussing in the most authoritative tones the merits or accomplishments of a biographical subject, and often belittling or deriding his or her accomplishments. Please explain why you've chosen to delete my article, and do me the courtesy of being specific. "Google Books" and "Google News" are not the be-all and end-all of sources for a writer's legitimacy. Do your sources of verification go beyond Google? Beyond the web? Here, for your reference, is the publisher listing for A.W. Hill: http://counterpointpress.com/authors/a-w-hill/. A search will also lead you to a number of extant reviews of each of his three published books. As for Philby Greenstreet, well, you might be very surprised to learn who he is.

I reverted your edit to Louis Jolyon West as it appears that you (possibly inadvertently) restored an earlier revision of the article.

Why did you start the RfC on Talk:Amy Hughes, the debate you're trying to have is about Marathon#Multiple marathons, so why isn't the RfC there? I specifically made sure that Amy Hughes didn't say she broke the record, as reliable sources didn't confirm this.

Thank you for listing your dispute at Wikipedia:Third opinion. Your request did not follow the guidelines for listing disputes. These guidelines are in place because they make sure that the editor who writes the Third Opinion is not biased, and that (s)he can easily see what the dispute is about.
The description of the dispute should be concise and neutral, and you should sign with the timestamp only. A concise and neutral description means that only the subject matter of the dispute should be described, and not your (nor anyone else's) views on it. For example, in a dispute about reliable sources, do not write "He thinks this source is unreliable", but rather write "Disagreement about the reliability of a source". To sign with only the timestamp, and without your username, use five tildes (~~~~~) instead of four.
Your request for a Third Opinion may have been edited by another editor to follow the guidelines - feel free to edit it again if necessary. If the dispute is of such a nature that it cannot follow the guidelines, another part of the dispute resolution process may be able to help you.

Hello user:location, i joined you briefly on a Federal Bureau of Investigation edit... thanks for that. I'm helping to edit an article Planned Parenthood and m trying to find a legal reference. Where would you point me to help look for a source document on a 1918 ruling of a NY State appellate court decision upholding Margaret Sanger's earlier conviction, but which opened the door for doctors to hand out prescription birth control? The references I have are vague:
[1] "....Sanger appealed her conviction, at the same time appealing for a doctor's right to dispense advice about birth control methods. She lost her appeal, but the New York appellate court gave doctors the right to hand out contraceptive information, if prescribed for medical reasons. -AND- [2], ".....Sanger appealed, but her conviction was upheld. Nevertheless, the state appellate court's 1918 decision interpreted the prohibitory statute broadly enough to allow physicians to prescribe birth control to women when medically indicated"
Thanks, I would appreciate any help, direction? --Cityside189 (talk) 23:46, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello, the source you quoted is a letter to the editor, it is not reliable. The national archives, states that this particular film was created by the Department of Justice's Drug Enforcement Administration and therefore is in the public domain per 17 U.S.C. § 105.XavierGreen (talk) 13:33, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
@Hammersoft: I always come to you when I have questions regarding potential copyright violations for images, however, this one relates to a link to a YouTube video. XavierGreen has pointed out that the National Archives appears to have released an ABC News report into the public domain, thus we are free to use a YouTube link with that video in Project MKUltra. (One can also purchase a DVD through the Amazon link noted on the National Archives page.) The National Archives link indicates the work's creator to be "Department of Justice. Drug Enforcement Administration." but I assume that this might be the entity from which the Archives received their copy. There is no evidence in the report or reliable secondary source coverage that this report was actually created by or funded by the DEA. I am wondering if you might be able to provide some insight here on how a television report by a private entity makes it way into the public domain.

I see you've tried to fix some of the content in the Michael Ruppert article. For your reference, Ruppert was interviewed by both the DOJ OIG (DOJ report ([Chapter 4 section A 4 c]) and the CIA OIG (CIA report Part I: The California Story: Findings, paragraphs 142-147]) during their investigations of Gary Webb's Dark Alliance newspaper series. The odd claim in the Ruppert article that "Experts who interviewed him later verified that he believed his own story" seems to be based on the conclusion in the DOJ report: "Based on our review, we believe that while Ruppert communicates his allegations fervently, they have no firm anchor in reality." I haven't got time to do anything with this, but based on the material in the reports, I also have serious doubts that Ruppert's mother worked for the NSA, as the article states.

You're probably referring to the head of CIA counterintelligence, James Angleton, who was not actually paranoid, just overwhelmed by the KGB's interweaving, since 1959, of its traditional "active measures" counterintelligence operations with new, Sun Tzu-like "strategic deception" counterintelligence operations.

Hello Friend. I'm writing about our JFK dispute. I have no wish to get into editing wars, especially on such a controversial subject. However, I honestly don't understand your reasons for reverting my edit. My source is Dr. Michael Parenti, who himself is featured as a rather respectable entry in Wikipedia. Likewise, if I'm not mistaken, he is the author of many books with reputable publishing houses. So, please enlighten me: What's unreliable about this ONE sentence? Moreover, this entry gives a picture of the field, showing that conspiracy in this area is not only popular among the public, but among scholars. This is simply a fact, which I sincerely hope you are not trying to suppress. I hope we can at least reach some compromise on this. Cordially awaiting your answer.Brachney (talk) 22:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)Brachney
Hello "Location":
Let me just add this Wikipedia entry about what you call a "fringe source":
"Parenti received his PhD in political science from Yale University. He is the author of 23 books and many more articles. His works have been translated into at least eighteen languages.[3] Parenti lectures frequently throughout the United States and abroad."
But, as I'v said, I don't wish to get into editing wars. So I'll leave this matter up to you. What shall it be then: Truth or propaganda?

Hi there, I think you misattributed an unsigned comment to me at Talk:Safari Club. Aloha, groupuscule (talk) 14:57, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
I have seen that Lee Harvey Oswald has been named as John F. Kennedy's killer on Wikipedia; I suggest the same be done to O.J. Simpson and name him as the killer of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Lyle Goldman. Wikipedia is a mainstream encyclopedia so this article presents the accepted version of the events according to reliable sources. Various programs (America Crime Story, Made In America) have resulted in the consensus that reliable sources state that O.J. Simpson murdered Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Lyle Goldman. If you disagree with the current status, you are welcome to bring your concerns to the article talk page. The legal contexts of "burden of proof" and "presumption of innocence" apply to someone who is being tried for a crime. Although Simpson was found not guilty in a court of law, reliable sources firmly establish his culpability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.97.98 (talk) 03:45, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
It was a simple question: the writer here was just suggesting that O.J. be named as the killer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.234.125 (talk) 09:09, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
The suggestion is that since Wikipedia goes by the official and still confirmed accurate record - Oswald acting alone - in the Kennedy assassination, we could go by O.J. Simpson murdering Nicole and Ron despite being found not guilty, as evidence points to his guilt. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.97.98 (talk) 16:07, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
Redirected from AfD Candidate's Talk Page [1]:
Location Sir:
It is very clear that in many recent months you have taken a keen interest in editing JFK Assassination articles. Including an article on my person which only peripherally associated me with the event in my role as a producer [2]. I was therefore taken aback to see concluding with a full Afd request rather than some citation.
In the discussion[3], I tried to address possible misunderstandings which may have provoked your action.
The principle being your apparent disdain for "Fringe Theories" and your conclusion that I may be associated with them. This, owing to my involvement, some 24 years ago in representing the intellectual property interests of three KGB officers assigned to the Mexico City Rezidentura of KGB in 1963 and their interactions with Lee Harvey Oswald.
Location, for the record, I do not subscribe to any of the theories associated with JFK's murder. Before I went to Moscow, in 1990, I harbored suspicions. But - after 2 years of immersion into the case - and assisting in the writing and production of a book "Passport to Assassination" by my then-client Oleg Nechiporenko, my sentiments changed. In fact, wholly-galvanized in favor of what is affectionately called the "Lone Gunman Theory". This came about as I correlated existing evidence plus rather startling new information about the psychopathology of the accussed assassin emanating from the KGB Archives and the 3 operatives themselves.
Most notably, LHO's erratic behavior, attempted suicide in Moscow during a tourism holiday and most critically, evidence shared with me and published manifesting significant personality disorder and violent tendencies. Pulling a pistol during a visa interview is not the hallmark of a stable personality. (In the days before metal detectors.)
Perhaps the fact that the article referenced my speaking invitations to the 2 dominant American conferences during the 50th Anniversary in 2013 made you think I was guilty by association? Au contraire, I was the Daniel in the Lions' Den at both conferences. Sneered at and nearly spat upon. And it was quite something confronting fellow speaker Oliver Stone with my alternative views. So, if that is what you thought, I might ask you to reconsider your position. I am pretty much in the Posner/Bugliosi camp.
As I have not observed that you have written, but rather that you have edited a lot, I honestly don't know your own views. But given the time you have invested in your clarifications, I would be keen to know them.
As for the lack of mention of me in the Nechiporenko article, I don't know who wrote it, nor do I care. Anybody can selectively edit reality. My reality with Nechiporenko was evidenced here [4] or [5] or in various other citations.
While I discussed many details at the two 2013 symposia, I have reserved some information for my own writing.
However, if it interests you at all to communicate any further on Oswald's defection, Moscow, Minsk or Mexico, I would be happy to discuss with you. Online or off.
Otherwise, I regret that the article written about me did not adhere to Wikipedia standards. Somebody *could* fix those. I just didn't think that -as one of the KEEP commenters said- that the "baby be thrown out with the bathwater".
Thank you for your time. litman_bd (talk) 02:35, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

The article currently says that Marrion Baker saw Oswald on the second floor, but JFK historian Stan Dane has pointed out in his book and research, “Prayer Man”, that Baker originally said he saw a man walking away from a stairway on the 3rd or 4th floor, a man who doesn’t match Oswald’s description, and that original interrogation reports say Oswald was on the first floor, at the entrance, (not in the first floor room or second floor lunchroom) and may have captured on film outside, and is the figure called “Prayer Man”. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.235.62 (talk) 10:43, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
I just noticed that the Lee Harvey Oswald article (great job, btw, it certainly deserves its star) contradicts the one covering Jim Leavelle. This article says Oswald was questioned by Detective Jim Leavelle about the shooting of Officer Tippit on the 22nd after his arrest. But Leavelle’s biographical article on Wikipedia states the exact opposite - that he only interrogated Oswald on the 24th - the morning Oswald was shot, and that he had never talked to him before. Not accusing Leavelle of being unrealible or a liar but his interviews he has done in recent years are in contray to his WC testimony. Memory always distort from time to time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.13.17.72 (talk) 17:49, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
