Hi! Did you not read through my post right before yours at [[Thread:206566]]? I was trying to stress that we '''cannot allow self-sourcing''' and we have '''no way of knowing for sure that these posters are who they claim to be''', and you've undone that by giving them validity (to quote your words: "the FP authors in this thread"). I (and the few other active admins) have had to deal with a lot of activity lately regarding our distinction between valid and invalid, and it doesn't help at all to have an admin (especially one who hasn't edited in a long time and might not be familiar with more recent policy decisions) come in and completely undermine our efforts. I suggest you read the policy and forum thread I cited since they are apparently new for you. Thanks.

:Sorry, no, I did not see your post before mine. I started a reply a while back, and was interrupted before I finished; you must have posted while I was dealing with my sleepless daughter. | |||
:I can understand the objections to self-sourcing, but I can also personally verify that the authors in question are who they say they are. At least, they are posting on [https://www.facebook.com/stuartamdouglas/posts/10155614226059502 Stuart Douglas' Facebook page] that they have commented in that thread. | |||
:Anyway, not intending to undermine anything. I just thought that the views of the authors and publishers were relevant to the discussion. —[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] [[User talk:Josiah Rowe#top|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 03:50, December 21, 2016 (UTC) | |||
