Jeff,

You were involved in monitoring and deleting libelous content added to the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Coughlin by James Renner a couple years ago. Mr. Renner has begun vandalizing social media pages today with the same stuff. He added libelous content to the Wiki article today. It has been removed but he continues to to try to add it. May I ask you to check in on it?

Thank you,

Kevin Coughlin

:Kevin, no problem. Looks like my intervention is unnecessary, as User:Dayewalker (whom I don't know, and don't remember encountering before) has reverted the article. I still have the article on my watchlist, though, so I'll keep an eye out. (And yes, I do recall you were not the one to make initial edits to it.) -- JeffBillman (talk) 22:18, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to :File:WRQN logo.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under Non-Free content criteria but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a Non-Free rationale.

If you have uploaded other Non-Free media, consider checking that you have specified the Non-Free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:14, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

:I uploaded that nearly six years ago. Go ahead and delete; I doubt it's of much use to the article now anyway. -- JeffBillman (talk) 17:03, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Hello "Jeff",

First, there is a "In Memoriam: 9/11" link on your user page that looks fishy. I hope I didn't catch a virus by clicking it.

I have a question about a particular page you edited recently. I was perusing this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Harmony,_Florida&action=history

I noticed that you removed "award winning" as a "peacock term". This seems reasonable since a representative of the developer of Harmony is most likely the one who wrote it.

On the same page there appears to be another problem. Besides the obvious grammatical error, the phrase "The Town of Harmony host a variety of festivals" is not accurate.

It is the developer of Harmony that hosts these "festivals" and they do so purely for marketing purposes only, IMHO. When the developer is done developing, these events will likely be done as well.

Should the term "Town of Harmony" be changed to "developer of Harmony"?

Also, Harmony is not quite a "town" yet since it has no real government and no businesses. It is a development.

Thank you for your reasonable edits.

There was absolutely no reason for your uncivil comment on my talk page. My edit to the Dennis Ross article was correct. Nobody filed to run against him, therefore he is reelected without opposition. Even if I had been in error, in no way does that justify an uncivil comment. Safiel (talk) 18:54, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

:First of all, he's not even running for re-election in the 12th District. He's running in the 15th. So whether he is opposed or not in the 15th, your edit was erroneous. More importantly, though, your edit disenfranchises voters. If you think my comment is uncivil, just think of the uncivil comments you'd get in federal prison after a conviction of vote tampering. -- JeffBillman (talk) 19:01, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited George Seward, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Florida, New York (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I am one of the daughters of Charles Passel. One of my sisters noticed that he now had a Wikipedia entry. We were curious as to how and why the entry was made. How, after all these years, did his get an article?

Thanks

:Thanks for your inquiry. I was not the creator of that article, so I cannot answer any questions about how that article was created. My lone interest in the article comes through his association with Miami University. -- JeffBillman (talk) 20:53, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello, JeffBillman. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, "List of songs about Tampa".

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply {{edit|Draft:List of songs about Tampa|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}} or {{tlc|db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. CatcherStorm ^talk 14:35, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello, Jeff. I really like what you've done with this page so far. I was hoping you could change the title from "Obetz Fortress Field" to "Fortress Obetz". Fortress Obetz is the permanent name that this stadium has been given more recently than the previous name given during the press release.
