These tags are not accurate.
1) There is nothing libelous in my entry (I am Jack Nusan Porter) 2) It does not "read like a resume" , whatever that means. 3) I am an expert scholar at Harvard, not a self promoter. Some books that I list are indeed published through my press The Spencer Press (which also publishes other authors besides myself) but are not puff pieces but scholarly, historical or sociological analyses.
I am a world-class social scientist.
And I should not be tagged for deletion. Its a good entry and has good material added to it, mostly about my family but also some added books that have been published recently, all of them scientific, scholarly and based on fact.
Sincerely,
Jack Nusan Porter, Ph.D. Research Associate, The Davis Center, Harvard University

- @Princessrishika: As it says at the top, this is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Multiple issues template. Your question would be more suited to WP:Teahouse or WP:Help desk. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 12:13, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Hoax tamplate
[edit]Is it possible to make one template stand out? For example, the hoax tag on the article KCBS pentagram is not very visible. I tried moving it outside to display the more noticeable warning (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=KCBS_pentagram&oldid=1306175873 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Christian75 (talk • contribs) 18:41, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- The whole point of this template is to avoid banner overload. It may be better to spend a couple of minutes to resolve the existing tags. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:56, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
- I understand why we have this template, but the hoax warning is on another level than 'lead too short' and stuff like that. As a reader, I want to be warned, and I guess normal readers (like me) ignore all the clutter at the top." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Christian75 (talk • contribs) 05:13, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
- Please sign your posts using ~~~~. I guess I disagree with emphasizing the hoax template, especially using this article as an example. It was clearly not a hoax. The article that describes that concept is apparently cited in over 300 journal articles, so if it is a hoax, it is a hoax referred to by many sources. Putting extra emphasis on the hoax template instead of resolving the issue with a minute's research doesn't seem like a good idea to me.
- If an article has multiple issues, different editors will have opinions about the importance of each issue. This template flattens all of them to avoid arguments. That helps editors focus on the content rather than the tagging. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:41, 22 August 2025 (UTC)

"No issues specified. Please specify issues, or remove this template. "
[edit]Currently when the template is not wrapped around anything it says: No issues specified. Please specify issues, or remove this template.
It would be better if it just didn't display anything in that case, and then we can have a bot clean em up. Polygnotus (talk) 13:19, 3 September 2025 (UTC)
