Obviously CrazyAces is a lost cause, so for this one-week block let's just leave him to his seclusion and prepare for what can be expected from him when the block is lifted. In an attempt to get on equal footing, I offered to fix up the [[Pee Wee Kirkland]] article, which he called me out on for reasserting the notability tag. I ask you, however, if it is worth the editing as I still believe the subject is unnotable, despite some references mentioning him. He receives some recognition, but it isn't for anything marvelous, just a "legend" status for street basketball and as a drug dealer. Any thoughts?[[User:TheGracefulSlick|TheGracefulSlick]] ([[User talk:TheGracefulSlick|talk]]) 19:42, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

:*You're right of course. I just get annoyed with the endless playing the victim. I'd have to say that Kirkland probably passes GNG. That NYT piece is pretty substantial. The ESPN piece is too. That said, the article sounds like a fan article, not an encyclopedia. Several sources won't pass RS. I found one non RS in the lead and it didn't even say what was being claimed.

I detest stalkers, especially those who can't get their facts straight.

Re: Our earlier disputes

A beer for you!

No worries, Niteshift--I was happy to back you up there (that was easy anyway, since you were right). Man, some people need to get out more, so they don't have so many words left when they get here. Cheers! Drmies (talk) 22:48, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Peace

Thank you, fine by me. Let's move on. ~ Kimelea (talk) 21:12, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Tell you what, I had the opposite happen tonight. Old neighbor comes by, there's a bottle of champagne, she and Mrs. Drmies claim to be tired etc; by the time they're gone and I'm thinking about finishing that bottle, it's empty after all. Plus they were disrespecting the Clint Eastwood movie I was watching, tsk tsk. Also, I made a promise: to not respond at ANI. Hey, we're all buddy-buddy now, with all this stuff going on, but weren't we in a fight a couple of months ago? Where you were wrong, of course. Later!

A barnstar for you!

The Teamwork Barnstar
For working with me on Dave Aronberg article. You've supported him, I was dead set against his most recent bid for office, but we worked together to make the article encyclopedic rather than looking like a press release. ...William 17:45, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Good Shephard

I suppose you think that's funny. It took me all day to transcribe that trash from my TV screen. :) When I wrote that stuff I was a young and foolish 63 year old with a new toy. I am now 64 and a little wiser and I.Won't.Do.It.Again.(promise). That article isn't deserving of all the attention it gets anyhow. The reason for all the caps is that that was how it appeared on the TV. However, there should be a way to cite the credits from a film, or even scenes in it. Could you point me in the right direction on that? If I change my mind after all when I know how to do it and put the music back in I hope you won't come after me with your nightstick! Please accept this with a good heart, I don't think much of stalkers either. :) Jodosma (talk) 22:37, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies (Re RSN)

Hi. I'd like to apologise for my behaviour in the recent RSN on Hazel Kirk. I think that my behaviour went over the line on multiple occasions in the way that I addressed you and your arguments. I don't mean this from the perspective of an online civility "policy", but just in terms of how one should normally address another human being. Normally I find it easy enough to deescalate in those kinds of situations; unfortunately I didn't in this instance. Sorry again for my remarks, including my initial one, many of which were unfair, rude and condescending. FiachraByrne (talk) 21:47, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was gonna thank you here...

But then I saw "I detest stalkers, especially those who can't get their facts straight." as soon as I came to your talk page, so I know you already know all about it! Thanks for the back-up! Hopefully that IP can settle down eventually. At least until they make another account. JesseRafe (talk) 03:16, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Folk Nation

Folk Nation exist in Texas. Brought to the State by Chicago Gang Members. Google sunset players gang youthgangs in texas and you can see they are listed as one of the serious gangs in tx by a govt study. I cant post a link because it is pdf TexasChris82 (talk) 07:06, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's not a question of if they exist. Nobody disputes whether there are Folk Nation gangs in Texas. There are. That doesn't mean we mention every location ever. And the sunset players may exist, that doesn't make them notable. Niteshift36 (talk) 18:26, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Let's not encourage him

Obviously CrazyAces is a lost cause, so for this one-week block let's just leave him to his seclusion and prepare for what can be expected from him when the block is lifted. In an attempt to get on equal footing, I offered to fix up the Pee Wee Kirkland article, which he called me out on for reasserting the notability tag. I ask you, however, if it is worth the editing as I still believe the subject is unnotable, despite some references mentioning him. He receives some recognition, but it isn't for anything marvelous, just a "legend" status for street basketball and as a drug dealer. Any thoughts?TheGracefulSlick (talk) 19:42, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • You're right of course. I just get annoyed with the endless playing the victim. I'd have to say that Kirkland probably passes GNG. That NYT piece is pretty substantial. The ESPN piece is too.
