[edit] Corwin8 Talk

[edit] Saying it over and over doesn't make it true

Corwin8 insists on adding information that is simple a re-hash of material already on the page (Hatsumi having Hayes' placard removed from the judan board) only through his assumption of just what that action meant; as well as patently false statement regarding selling an "instructional DVD set that would let someone become a black belt in Ninjutsu." I don't know he/she is intentionally lying, or honestly thinks that what the To-Shin Do DVD program is... but it doesn't matter, either way this person is wrong and their misinformation needs to stop.

I'm taking out the "interpretive" text (let's stick to the facts, and not our interpretation of what those facts might or might not mean - see Rustedshuriken's comments of 25 May) as well as the false information regarding the DVD "Black Belt Issue."

Finally - the diatribe here on the discussion page is little more than a rant against Mr. Hayes, filled with unverifiable information, speculation, and hearsay. Certainly this person is entitled to their opinion... but is this the forum to air it? --Jikaku 02:30, 20 June 2006 (date added by Corwin8)

Please, stop it with the personal attacks. You are accusing me of providing unverifiable information & speculation. Did you read the SKH talk page as I asked you to? Did you see me provide detailed dates, names, what was said and who said it? Are you calling it "unverifiable" only because you were not there? What standard do you apply? Just what do you want - wiretapped evidence, a hidden spy camera, what? Do I need to remind you that this is a COMMUNITY and that all may contribute? Or is any personal testimony that you do not want to hear automatically excluded from all Wiki articles? Look, you have reverted the article three times - that's blatant violation of Wiki policy that you seem to have purposely ignored. I have written from experience, and Wiki is here to allow those of us with that experience to shine upon it the light of day. I put 2 and 2 together and came up with 4 - you, on the other hand, seem to think that just because you don't like the information that you have personal license to toss insults at me. On Wiki, everyone may contribute based upon their own experience an evidence and I've provided you with detailed dates, times, and even names. If you want to provide me with contact information I can email or fax you the material that I have. Is that acceptable to you, or do you want to insult me again? What evidence will you accept? Or will you play more word games? --Corwin8 02:52, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trump University Spam

You can't just delete sections. You mayt request additional cites[1], and include the 'citation needed' tag, but you can't just delete it. --Corwin8 17:13, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Actually, allegations without appropriate sources should be removed... Wikipedia:Citing sources says:

If it is doubtful and harmful, you should remove it from the article; you may want to move it to the talk page and ask for a source, unless you regard it is as very harmful or absurd, in which case it shouldn't be posted to a talk page either. Use your common sense.

So I put it on the talk page and it hasn't disappeared from view, and can be reinserted if properly sourced. I didn't want to annoy anyone... Feel free to check on this at and get the opinion of others at Wikipedia:Requests for comment - please do so before reinserting the improperly sourced material. --Singkong2005 · talk 00:13, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

I noticed your extra citation, which improves things (I'm not sure if that's a notable source, but definitely looks better than the other sources). See my comments on the talk page. --Singkong2005 · talk 00:34, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
