Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 08:04, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Carl Freer

I villanize him because he is a villain. I don't like to see a valuable resource such as Wikipedia used to fabricate a squeaky clean resume-like profile in order to convince more investors to give their money to this fraudster. As I have said on the talk page, I realize there are two sides to most of these stories, and am happy to see both sides presented where the truth is not absolutely clear. Re the court documents, I have PDFs, you can host them on your googlepages site if you wish. If there are two Carl Freers involved in Blowfish Works, then I guess I might have the wrong man, and for that I apologize. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 00:56, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Point of View

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Carl Freer appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. When something is marked as a claim, you need to supply references from a reputable third party that support that claim as undeniable fact before removing the word claim. It would also help if the reference for the results of a British investigation into the dealings of a British company was in English, not Swedish, and was attributed to someone who was actually involved in the investigation. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 22:08, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mikael Ljungman

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Mikael Ljungman. Thank you.

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Mikael Ljungman. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed even if some believe it to be contentious. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. You also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you.

-- Fugu Alienking (talk) 14:05, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove references from Wikipedia unless you can supply better ones to take their place. While the Gizmondo reference contains only a small amount of detail about Ljungman, it is the only reference linking him to Gizmondo. Other material that you removed is supported by the references supplied, and provides balance to what is otherwise a promotional article. If you have a conflict of interest you may not be the best judge of what constitutes a neutral point of view and should probably refrain from editing the article. Instead, I recommend consulting Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Help if you feel that you or your associate is getting unfair treatment from other editors. -- Fugu Alienking (talk) 15:48, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With regards to the patent claim which you persistently keep adding, please note that the link that you are supplying is not a link to an issued patent, but to an application that is still being processed. So it is inaccurate to refer to it as being granted to Ljungman. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fugu Alienking (talk • contribs) 16:13, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Carl Freer again

Please be extra-careful not to remove content when editing this article. Thanks, --Damiens.rf 12:57, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, if you are going to remove content with a summary stating that the two journalists from a respected broadsheet newspaper who wrote the article are "under indictment", you need to explain yourself on the talk page, with references that back up that statement and show that their indictment is relevant to the article they wrote 3 years ago. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 21:10, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your most recent editing summary, it is you who is removing referenced content and failing to discuss your changes on the talk page. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 13:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please, stop reverting info from this article. You're being disruptive. --Damiens.rf 13:20, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Truthmaker1. Your edits on Carl Freer are being discussed at WP:AN/3RR. You are welcome to join the discussion there. EdJohnston (talk) 16:58, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

June 2008

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. Scarian ^{Call me Pat!} 16:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Mikael Ljungman

I have nominated Mikael Ljungman, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mikael Ljungman (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Fugu Alienking (talk) 15:55, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ljungman/Freer content removal

If you remove relevant, sourced content from an article, please at least provide an edit summary explaining your reasoning. Better yet, discuss such changes on the talk page. Yours, Huon (talk) 18:37, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please note the above. Persistent removal of content without discussion or even edit summary may be seen as edit warring and could lead to your account being blocked again. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 14:18, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts

Hi guy. Just to let you know that this was your third revert in the past 24 hours (1 2 3). Perhaps it would be worth just coming to a consensus on the talk page for now? It's not something where it must be removed immediately, like a life or death situation, so don't panic, and just spend a while discussing things on the talk page. If you think wider input is needed, feel free to file a request for comment. But be aware that further reverts might make your account vulnerable to being blocked for violation of 3RR. Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 00:03, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

May 2009

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for disruptive behaviour, single-purpose editing, and edit warring. Given your editing history, you are strongly advised to thoroughly discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than continuing in this manner.

Problems with upload of File:Carl freer.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Carl freer.jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.

To add this information, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:07, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File copyright problem with File:Carl freer.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Carl freer.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. FASTILY_sock^(TALK) 03:14, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Carl Freer image

You uploaded File:Carl freer 1.jpg, claimed to be the copyright holder and released it under a Creative Commons license. A while ago, you uploaded the very same image as File:Carl freer.jpg and claimed that the copyright was held by Carl Freer (which eventually saw the image deleted). This made me wonder: Are you Carl Freer? If not, which copyright claim was wrong? Or am I missing something? Huon (talk) 09:17, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

September 2010

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 month for contravening Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy, as you did at Carl Freer, and for repeated edit warring and abuse of multiple accounts. Once the block has expired, you may resume editing if you are prepared to make useful contributions, but you should be aware that your edit history demonstrates a clear pattern of single-purpose editing and an apparent conflict of interest. Further issues may result in a permanent loss of access to the site. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Possibly unfree File:Carl freer 1.jpg

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Carl freer 1.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Huon (talk) 20:18, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is my photo and I own the copyright to it. It can be used on this article and selected other reprints. --Truthmaker1 (talk) 01:53, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't you claim earlier that the copyright was owned by Carl Freer? Are you Carl Freer, or am I missing something? And by the way, since you released the image under a Creative Commons license, I believe it could now be used for almost any purpose whatsoever, provided you are attributed with the image's creation. Huon (talk) 11:06, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
