You seem to be familiar with Wikipedia policies, but have only edited three different pages (not counting talk pages) under this name. Do you edit pages under other names? Have a nice day! Steve8675309 14:23, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

I did, quite some time back, as, IIRC, Cardsharq (or cardsharque), but I couldn't get back to that account so I made a new one. So, no, I guess is the answer to your question, I don't. Why do you ask?--RemoWilliams 06:11, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

To be honest, this looked like a sockpuppet account (WP:Sock#Characteristics of sock puppets). But if you say this is the only account you edit from, I'll take your word for it. Steve8675309 21:53, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Please believe me that I'm not trying to cause any hard feelings on the Churchill thing. The more I read about that guy the more I dislike him, and he probably deserves to be on the page, but really, for a living person, your evidence must be unimpeachable. I came along the con artist page because I was looking up some people that were mentioned in the BBC show "Hustle."--RemoWilliams 06:11, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Confidence trick

I saw your mediation request for this. I took a look at the page and I agree with you regarding sources and how WP:BLP applies to this article. I think the best way to approach this is to watch the article and require that all names added to the list have multiple reliable sources. I've gone ahead and removed all names that did not have an inline citation. I think this should make it clear that we are making sure that the article conforms to Wikipedia's policies. Otherwise it might appear that we are selectively enforcing the policy only for 1 person. In this way we can avoid an edit war. Take care.TheRingess (talk) 17:12, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] from here

Once again, keep it out while it stands alone; it's unfair to the other side. And even then the fairest and justest thing to do with literature is to say, "Read it, and make up your own mind." We are in the business of enlightening, not confounding. --VKokielov 18:05, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
