User talk:OlderWorker

Hello, OlderWorker, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

• Introduction and Getting started
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page and How to develop articles
• How to create your first article
• Simplified Manual of Style

You may also want to take the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit The Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:53, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I am attempting to provide information that is all verified by government reports, and as a blogger and journalist believe the public has a compelling right to know. The people who are repeatedly removing the information appear to have a conflict of interest. I would suggest they cooperate in the editing process instead of just removing text. It is also my understanding that far from being exonerated from the variety of issues highlighted in the government report, that the Inspector General has expanded the scope of the investigation. If those other editors feel this is inaccurate, please furnish some document, letter, report, etc. from either the Department of Labor or the Inspector General.

Hello C. Fred, I think I made an editing mistake on the Census Bureau. Still getting use to the formatting. How it reads now is correct. The US poverty line is calculated by a formula established by the U.S. Census Bureau. You are correct, it is not part of HHS. Rather the Commerce Dept. While HHS, DOL and other agencies incorporate poverty data into program eligibility requirements, it remains a Census Bureau number. Thanks for your help and wiki guidance.

Hello OlderWorker,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Paul DelPonte for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiAviator was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject

independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid

when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

While some sources cover extensively the organization he works for, the mentions of DelPonte are trivial, which fails to establish notability.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Voorts was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Nothing has changed since this article was deleted. Please review the notability guidelines and ensure that there is in-depth coverage of DelPonte, not merely the organization he works for; quotes in a news story from DelPonte don't constitute in-depth coverage of him.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Hello, OlderWorker, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Khaliduncle (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections.
