For the Westley Allan Dodd dairy thing I didn’t use like a forum nor use it as chat room Dodd actually did had a diary where he wrote down all the stuff he said and plus I couldn’t find another source the only one I found was the link that I put next time you should probably do your homework and research before do something like that again.

Thank you Robert Hinckley (talk) 05:21, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You were not suggesting a change to the article. You simply copied a supposed diary into the article’s talk page. That is very much a WP:NOTAFORUM violation. Stop restoring it. See WP:BRD. And what you copied was from a usenet group… certainly not a reliable source. See WP:RS Meters (talk) 06:43, 14 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How would you know? Robert Hinckley (talk) 04:53, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

And also the wiki is also not a reliable source as well because anyone can edit anything on here and change stuff around and also this suppose diary was actually his diary better yet you can watch a documentary about this guy and they will display his diary on the screen and even mention he had a diary.Robert Hinckley (talk) 04:55, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

“How would you [I] know?” What? That’s it’s a NOTAFORUM violation? Again, you did not suggest any changes to the article. You simply dumped supposed diary material onto the talk page. That it is from a usenet group? Because you provided the link (in both of your edits), and I actually followed the link and read it. The material was a 1999 repost of a 1995 thread from Newsgroups: alt.true-crime. That the usenet group is not a reliable source? The usenet group is user-generated. Anyone could post anything. See WP:USERG.

You don’t need to explain to me that Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Meters (talk) 05:38, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My good sir isn’t everything from the wiki used from like newgroups and also from actually newspaper clippings before me and you were even a thing and some even come from YouTube, google, reddit, etc. other sources like the most recent stuff that came from all those sources and copied and get put into the wiki also your saying that I don’t need to explain to you that wiki is not that reliable how so because it true it not that reliable but I want to hear your reason plus your probably saying because you love the wiki some much after all you have been here for 19 years what a waste of time and I only been here for like 3 or 4 days now my good sir it time put the computer down and go live free.

Also why are you also recommend me to WP:USERG and NOTAFORUM how can I trust that simply anyone edit that say something different better yet I don’t need to read that at all I can simply search it up somewhere else where I can read it much faster and save time like google after all google has been around since the wiki.

And the way I got information about google being older the wiki it was not from the wiki it was simply clicking a couple of words into my keypad and boom in just 1 second it gave me all the information I need in 1 sentence. Robert Hinckley (talk) 06:00, 15 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
