why do mentions of redacted charges continualy get removed for wikipedia? is this a goverment censorship gone mad or what? we should learn that information for free not have to hide it from the public viewpoint or else its no different than china or iraq for god sake! we demand public information! if this happens more, perhaps I will be reporting it to national news media about the bias of wikipedia and then the whole website will lose its credibility and it wont be trusted as far as you could throw it! you have been cautioned. —Preceding

Obviously you're new here. The burden is on YOU to back up your assertions with reliable sources. If you are unable to do so, don't expect anyone else to stand behind your claims. If what you are saying is as true as you claim it is, you should have absolutely no trouble finding even one reliable source to back it up. A quick look online found NOTHING, which doesn't look good for you. Freshfighter9talk14:20, 26 July 2010 (UTC)reply
Spare us. Wikipedia does not deal in libel, and given no such Toronto Star article exists, your edits simply will not be allowed to stand. Do not repost it or you will be blocked.

Please help improve this article by expanding it.
This article is fairly short considering the profile of Scott Oake. I think we should add some more info about Scott himself. Would anybody have any objections to a short paragraph about his hairstyle? Also, does anyone else have any suggestions as to what we could add to improve this article? I think if we work hard and get this page bursting with info with maybe a few photos to break it up a bit, we could possibly nominate it to be featured on the main page. —Preceding

I'm adding a bit about him hosting Celebrity Meeter on Hockey Night in Canada. Can someone help with the referencing? I have the links but am unsure how to add them to the page... (interviews with Vince Vaughn and Snoop Dogg) —Preceding

Give it up. We both know there is no such thing as "Celebrity Meeter", and we both know that you are just wasting everyone's time with this hairstyle nonsense. You can choose to find something productive to do when your current block expires, or you can be blocked for a considerably longer period of time. Your choice.

Since you asked, yes, I object to "a short paragraph about his hairstyle". I object to absolutely everything you've ever added to Wikipedia, as it has all been a bad joke and a waste of everyone's time. Freshfighter9talk13:54, 3 August 2010 (UTC)reply
Whoa, just noticed these comments here... What's with the negativity? We're supposed to be working together to create the best possible Scott Oake article we can. No need to have a go. All you(pl) have added to the discussion is "you are wasting everyone's time" and "I object to absolutely everything you've ever added to Wikipedia". These are hardly constructive comments. Why don't you make an effort to contribute to this page instead? I seem to be the only person concerned with the quality of this page... Come on people, it's Scott Oake!!!! He deserves better. —Preceding

You are the only one concerned with damaging the quality of this page. Everyone else is concerned with upholding the quality of this page. -

This is what I mean - I come to the talk page to discuss improving the article, but I'm met with nothing but hostility and negativity. Does DJSasso have a personal grudge against me? Why all the threats of blocking and the personal attacks? Is there anyone on Wikipedia who actually wants the project to grow? —Preceding

I have no grudge, but what has happened is you have used up everyones good will towards you. You have repeatedly placed libelous information about this man on his article. At this point, no one will take you seriously. -

All I can do is move forward and try to contribute in a constructive manner. If you didn't want me to make any further edits, you should have banned me indefinitely. Instead, I have patiently waited out my block, and am now working to build up the project. Other users should save their attacks and critisisms for when I violate a policy. —Preceding

Celebrity Meeter
I'd really like to add a section re: Celebrity Meeter. It's a segment that Oake hosts on CBC. Does anyone have any ideas about what references we should include? Despite the fact that there are clips of the segment on youtube.com, the footage isn't considered as a valid source. Any thoughts? Let's be constructive! —Preceding

Scott Oake does not host a segment called this. The clips you mention did not show this. Find something on the CBC website that says he hosts something called this and you can add it, otherwise if you keep up your disruptive behavior you will be blocked again. -

I am not being disruptive. If you watch the segment featuring Vince Vaughn, Oake actually says the words "Welcome back to Celebrity Meeter on HNIC". For some reason, I can't find any reference to his show other than on youtube.com. Hence my request for help referencing... You don't have to resort to attacking me by suggesting I'm being disruptive. —Preceding

There is currently a mention of his activity within the Twitter community. Please do not remove sourced material (such as this) unless a clear consensus has been reached here on the talk page. Many thanks! —Preceding

It's the other way around. And given your history of unhelpful edits to this article, I'm inclined to remove it until consensus is reached. In any case, I don't see how a specific section on his Twitter profile is encyclopedic. elektrikSHOOS23:07, 11 August 2010 (UTC)reply
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Scott Oake. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
