So you're gone in a huff?

That won't be happening. The one admin resigned his tools and apparently retired...and unless Tom appeals directly to the arbcom enforcement board (which I know he won't do) he is topic banned de facto for life.

I am also sad to see this response. An indefinite ban is not the same thing as a permanent ban: it simply means the timescale is unspecified. It could be lifted in a week or in four months. Tom is a decent, well respected editor, but he crossed a line. He will return to 9/11 articles, as I hope you will, despite our disagreements.

No, he won't. The ban is essentially permanent because Tom isn't going to cause a debacle by appealing, which would have to be to the committee as a whole since the blocking admin resigned. Heck, he may have even left by the time it is considered. Because of a poor-intentioned block accompanied by the perfect storm of an admin resignation, Tom is not going to be back for a long, long time, which is a shame since he is one of the most productive and level-headed editors on that topic.

My reading of the threads is that Mkativerata's resignation was precipitated by a separate issue, and despite being challenged about his impartiality here, his decision has been upheld by other independent observers (and I concur with their decision). Lesser editors than Tom might create a debacle by appealing prematurely or unreasonably, but Tom is perfectly capable of requesting, in his own time, and his own way, that the topic ban be lifted, without causing drama. To suggest otherwise is to underestimate him.

Nothing you wrote above is accurate in any manner. Mkativerata left over this issue primarily...not because someone was mad at being called a clown. Furthermore, I know for a fact that Tom is never going to ask for clemency on this matter...it would be "underestimating him" to assume that he would bother to do so.--MONGO 04:46, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-02-12T04:46:00.000Z","author":"MONGO","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-MONGO-2012-02-12T04:46:00.000Z-Geometry_guy-2012-02-12T02:18:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Something of this sort was inevitably going to happen: indeed in the absence of any initiative from other editors in the next few weeks, I'd quite likely put in a request myself to have the topic ban status reconsidered.

You guys are getting way too emotionally involved in this battle over 9/11 conspiracy theories. I just read through the talk page of the 9/11 conspiracy theories article, and I'm surprised that there hasn't been more AE or other administrative intervention requested. You all really need to step back on this, or I think it's going to go back to ArbCom again, just based on the tone of the comments you all make with each other and at the admin who banned Tom.

AQFK...what about an arbcom case which makes sure only the committee itself enforces prior rulings. Me thinks this might reduce the number of rash decisions that impact more than just the person penalized. I know there was a reason why the admin corp has been handling arbcom enforcement...something with conflict of interest issues, but that seems silly since arbcom hands down the decisions. Notice also how Tim dealt responded to questioning compared to the resigning admin and WGFinley...and yet the website is constantly lecturing everyone on compromise...I suppose the other admins should look at Tim's example...and I thanked him for his civil and compromising tone...thats the way to be an admin.--MONGO 02:07, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-02-14T02:07:00.000Z","author":"MONGO","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MONGO-2012-02-14T02:07:00.000Z-Wikiquette_assistance","replies":[]}}-->

Dear A Quest For Knowledge: Hello. This is just to let you know that you've been mentioned in the following request at the Mediation Cabal, which is a Wikipedia dispute resolution initiative that resolves disputes by informal mediation.

The request can be found at Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/27 February 2012/Wikipedia:Verifiability.

Just so you know, it is entirely your choice whether or not you participate. If you wish to do so, and we'll see what we can do about getting this sorted out. At MedCab we aim to help all involved parties reach a solution and hope you will join in this effort.

If you have any questions relating to this or any other issue needing mediation, you can ask on the case talk page, the MedCab talk page, or you can ask the mediator, Mr. Stradivarius, at their talk page.

I only skimmed it, but the article only seems to explain the fringe viewpoints. I don't see where mainstream viewpoints are explained. Take a look at Moon landing conspiracy theories. For each fringe claim, the mainstream viewpoint is also explained. I'm not crazy about the formatting (bullet points and italics) but Moon landing conspiracy theories does a decent job explaining the topic.

The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true.

All material in Wikipedia articles must be attributable to a reliable published source to show that it is not original research, but in practice not everything need actually be attributed. This policy requires that anything challenged or likely to be challenged, including all quotations, be attributed to a reliable source in the form of an inline citation, and that the source directly supports the material in question.

This verifiability policy is strictly applied to all material in the mainspace—articles, lists, sections of articles, and captions—without exception, and in particular to material about living persons. Anything that requires but lacks a source may be removed, and unsourced contentious material about living persons must be removed immediately.

"Verifiability" is one of Wikipedia's three core content policies. The other two are "Neutral point of view" and "No original research". These three core policies jointly determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in Wikipedia articles. Because these policies work in harmony, they should not be interpreted in isolation from one another, and editors should try to familiarize themselves with all three. The principles upon which this policy is based cannot be superseded by other policies or guidelines, or by editors' consensus.

For questions about whether a particular source is reliable, see the Reliable sources noticeboard.

Verifiability, not truth

That we require verifiability, rather than truth, as the threshold for inclusion does not mean that Wikipedia has no respect for truth and accuracy, just as a court's reliance on rules of evidence does not mean the court does not respect the facts.

Wikipedia's articles are intended as an overview of the relevant literature within the field in question, a summary of current published debate. The Neutral point of view policy, another core content policy, holds that all majority and significant-minority published views be represented in articles. But sources are not infallible. They may make simple errors, or be outdated or superseded. Editorial judgment is required to decide how to use the best sources in the best way.

When there is agreement among editors that an otherwise reliable source has made an unambiguous error, simply ignore that material, and when in doubt discuss on the article talk page, or on the reliable sources noticeboard. The concept of "verifiability, not truth" does not mean that anything published by a reliable source, no matter how mistaken, must be included in Wikipedia.

It's OK, you won't lose your work. I had one of my articles deleted a couple years ago and an admin was able to userfy it. Anyway, the result of the AfD might be keep or no concensus (which results in keeping the article). But if it is deleted, you'll need an admin to userfy it - I'm not an admin. But like I said, there's no reason to worry. An admin will still be able to userfy it even after deletion.

From what I read in the policy guidelines extreme sarcasm, name-calling and "outing" (albeit an "attempting outing" in this case) is forbidden. For some reason Bromiliad39 has really disparaged and slandered April Masini (to say nothing of apparently even posted her home address) as well as disparaged SW Florida's local media outlets and GMHayes. Is this type of behavior common and acceptable by the admins?

I'm sorry, but I just looked over Bromiliad39's comments at the AfD and the article talk page and I'm not seeing any personal attacks. The COI accusations are inappropriate at the AfD, and I would just ignore those comments. COI has absolutely no bearing on whether a topic is notable.

Hi AQFK, is there a way I can insert newspaper and magazine references onto the page? I also would like to upload pdf files, though I have no clue how to do this :-( Unfortunately the page says no changes can be made to it until the issue has been resolved, and unless sources get added it is clear the page will be deleted. Is there anyone I can contact to give me permission to add the references? Thank you in advance for any guidance you can offer.

I think you've misunderstood. It doesn't say that no changes can be made. It says "Feel free to edit the article, but the article must not be blanked, and this notice must not be removed, until the discussion is closed.". So go ahead and edit the article. You just can't remove the AfD notice. I'm not sure what kind of PDFs you're talking about. If your references are online, you can just use the URL as the reference. If your references are paper-based, then you specify the publisher, date, author, etc. like you were writing a term paper for school. Either way, here's a web page that makes it easier to fill out citation templates.[2] It's what I use.

I'm sorry to do this to you AQFK, but I posted a couple of revised lines in my Sandbox that have the pdf files attached.

I take it that these PDFs are image scans of printed sources? People don't upload PDFs like that for citations. Instead, they fill out a citation template only. I've taken the liberty of filling it out for you for the Governor Cayetano Honors Al and April Masini source:
<ref> {{cite news | title = Governor Cayetano Honors Al and April Masini | date = 1998-06-02 | publisher = State of Hawaii Office of teh Governor | work = Press Release | accessdate = 2012-03-25 | quote = "Governor Ben Cayetano is proclaiming June 4th Al and April Masini Day at a mahalo reception for the volunteers of the Miss Universe Pageant at Washington Place on Thursday, June 4 1998 from 5:30p.m. to 7:30p.m. Al and Appril Masini proved their immense love for Hawaii and the people of the state by devoting close to a year of their time and energy to make the 1998 Miss Universe Pageant widly successful," said Governor Cayetano."}}</ref>
As for my opinion, they appear to be secondary sources so they help establish notability. But the other PDF is too blurry for me to read so I can't say for certain.

You are incredibly kind AQFK. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for your help. THANK YOU! The other two are pdf files of magazines. Imi Loa Magazine is put out by the a branch of the Governor's Office and chronicles (in several pages) much of the work done by April Masini building Hawaii's television and film industry, including an interview with Baywatch's producer discussing how she convinced him to move the show. I don't think there is anyway to extract the related quotes... there are too many important ones. I don't understand why it's blurry on your end... It was fine when I uploaded it.

You don't need to upload PDFs. All you have to do is read the magazine article and summarize (as best you can) what the magazine article is saying in your own words. Add that to the April Masini article and add inline citation by filling out the citation template. You can fill it out manually yourself or use this tool. I'm heading out for the night.

Hi AQFK! It's the pest back to bother you again.... I've revised the April Masini page, changing it's focus from author to political activist for television and film. I've also listed a ton more references. I believe there is now an excerpt posted, from a source, to support every statement made on the page. I don't know if I'm allowed to do that or not, but I did? It was pretty obvious that people weren't reading the articles, so I thought maybe they'll read the excerpts. However, based upon what's transpired I'm not optimistic it will matter either way. Two questions: (1) Is there anything more that you think I should do? and (2) How long do you think it will be before they delete the page? (I have to assume that's what is going to happen.) It would be ironic it was on April 1st -- then you could add April Masini to your list of April's Fools Jokes! ;-) You've been a terrific help AQFK and I want to thank you again.

Hi Jenny, I think you did some great work, but you don't need 11 cites for the fact that she writes for Match.com. But since they're already in there, you might as well leave them be. WP:CLOSEAFD says an AfD can be closed after 7 days, but it might take more time to read through the discussion and the article.

I'm sorry! :( Sarah (talk) 17:34, 29 March 2012" Do you think I should remove all of the links to the Match.com articles?

Understood. I just thought such a statement was a bit of a mischaracterisation: I, for one, have had AN watchlisted for longer than AN/I. And yes, if outside input is desired, initiating discussion at a new forum may be in order.

The problem I think some people are having in that AN discussion is that they seem to be having a hard time discerning the difference between the "dispute" and the "abuse". They may look at the dispute and determine that he used his admin tools correctly, based on their agreement with him in the "content dispute". I think that you and I may be the only two who can clearly make out the difference, based on the comments at AN so far. These are clear violations of trust that I feel should not be tolerated from anyone with admin tools. I don;t know how else to explain to people to put aside their bias on the dispute and only look at the two clear violations of our rules for admins. Funny, I probably would have taken his side in the dispute had I been aware of it, but I will stay out of it, until this issue is resolved. Good luck. I wouldn't waste too much time on this though. I'm sure you have, as well as I do, better things to do with your time. Still it would be a shame to see this go unpunished.

Maybe. I'm not really all that invested emotionally in how this particular thread ends, but would give my opinion if an ArbCom was begun. I just hate to see these types of violations go without even a warning. They only breed mistrust and lead to more problems in the future. Shame.

No, it's not on hold. There's a list on the article talk page of items that need to be addressed. Previously, I asked on the article talk page who else was interested in reaching WP:GA status. Several editors responded positively, but the list mostly remains unaddressed. It seems like most of the work is falling on me - which is fine - but even I get bored/distracted by other things, and right now, I'm working on creating lists of self-published sources. I plan to return to the 9/11 article, but if things are moving too slow, it would be nice if someone besides me did some of the work.

It seems hard to believe, but perhaps you really do not understand what I'm telling you here. Let me spell it out. Statements you make involving an active verb such as "go", "claim" and prefixed by a subject such as "you" are statements about a person -- in this case me. Those statements are attacks on my conduct as a person, and hence personal attacks. Don't do that. Clear? If you refer to my conduct again in this fashion, you will be harassing me. Clear?

I'm not going to edit into the archived section, but I did want to answer your question. In fact you'll note that I answered it earlier in the conversation, up above the point Jauerback first posted. I believe it was in response to Ooobunnies (pardon if the usernames mispelled). Looking at the totality of the situation, the IP should have been blocked for 3RR inserting of BLP violating material.

You posted right after the close, I didn't have an issue with that, but I also knew if I replied there someone would come along and revert us, (And probably gleefully tell me I fucked up based on the exchange I had earlier in the thread). On the other, might be interesting, but might be swayed by other dynamics. You might get different answers to a blind hypothetical, and an answer knowing they were critiquing another admins actions.

NP, thanks for the email, when I first read the question, I thought it lacked even enough detail for a general answer (and what good is a general answer anyway? I would prefer the straightforward "here's the edit, here's the source, what's your thoughts?" kind of question), but I checked it out after I got your email and the website was back up, it was actually easier than I thought to rule it out.

But I would note that the last few RFCs on Wikinews haven't received formal closure, because the result was blindingly obvious—I'm not sure that anyone can offer any original facts or arguments regarding wikinews, but then again, I was brought up to let people revisit topics tiresomely (because ARBCOM and Admins wouldn't do their job in content disputes).

I suggest you go and retract the statement that I somehow have a conflict of interest. You've shown nothing to indicate it is a valid claim and it's out of line. I don't understand why some of you are so opposed to a standards-based discussion and insist on grasping at anything but the meat of the matter.

Thanks for your edits on the Six Day War article in regards to semantics, awkwardness, punctuation, grammar, etc. While certain editors duke it out in regards to content, it is always valuable to have editors fix the grammar, which can ruin a perfectly good article.

Just in the future, try to make your edits in only one edit. This way, it's much easier to see all of your edits compared to the previous person's edit. In case you don't know, an easy way to do this is to make your edit, click "show preview," see the preview of your edits, and then decide whether it's sufficient and save changes or to go back to the edit box at the bottom of the page and make more changes, and repeat the process.

It's just easier to be able to see the diffs. It worked out fine with you, since it's not a big deal for grammar, but if you could just keep this in mind for the future, that'd be really great.

And once again, thanks for contributing to Wikipedia and helping out on the article. It's much appreciated. --Activism1234 23:09, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-07-16T23:09:00.000Z","author":"Activism1234","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Activism1234-2012-07-16T23:09:00.000Z-Six_Day_War_edits","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2012-07-16T23:29:00.000Z-Activism1234-2012-07-16T23:09:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Activism"}}-->


I prefer to make my edits one at a time as I read through the article. If you want to see my edits as one diff, you can go into Six-Day War: Revision history, select the radio button immediately before my first edit and then select radio button of my last edit. So, for example, here's all my changes so far in one diff.[8] Does that work for you?

So far, it's pretty decent article. I got a little confused in the "Background and summary of events leading to war" section regarding Egypt massing its troops in Sinai. It starts off saying that a large part of Nasser's army was already in Sinai and that they continued a troop build up. But later, it states that Nasser began to concentrate his troops in the Sinai Peninsula.

Anyway, I'm probably done for the night editing the article.

You made a claim about "edit warring" on User talk:TrevelyanL85A2, demanding that "sanctions" be imposed on me. Looking at the talk page history, however, there is no evidence of edit warring. There is one reversion of a restored edit of a banned user/wikihounder per WP:DENY.[10] Collect made a similarly unjustified outburst to you on WP:AE, repeatedly making false claims of battleground conduct, and was barred from commenting there in matters related to WP:ARBR&I.

If you deem that some kind of sanction should be imposed on me, the way for you to proceed to is to make a request for a formal amendment at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Clarification and Amendment, outlining the sanction you have in mind. Every assertion in the request, particularly if serious, should be accompanied by diffs. Note also several arbitrators have expressed the view that proxy-editing on behalf of site-banned editors has intensified following the close of the review. You might want to address that point, since you seem to be in disagreement with arbitrators.

I was always under the impression that minor edits were edits that did not effect the page too much. Seeing as I believe that current contention around the difference between "Unification" and "Re-Unification" was quite minor, I thought it would come under that category; am I mistaken?

Well, it depends on how you define 'minor'. For contentious articles, even seemingly small changes can be controversial. If you think that someone else is likely to disagree with your edit, then don't mark it as minor. I don't edit in this topic space (so correct me if I am wrong) but apparently "unification" versus "re-unificatinon" appears to be point of contention.

OK, I took another look at it, and I think that the wording was confusing (or at least confusing to me). The phrase appeared (to me at least) to suggest that Pakistan had fore-knowledge of the attacks. I'v re-added the material back into the article (albeit in the body).

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Its not that they aren't notable (if they weren't then they wouldn't be given mention on List_of_The_X_Factor_finalists_(U.S._season_1)). I just felt that it was still too early to make an article about them in Wikipedia since they haven't released anything beyond The X-Factor. But I guess I shouldn't have nominated the article for deletion. I think that a Redirect for Discussion was a better alternative.

Hi, in edit summaries on talk pages, I don't mind seeing my username in normal case when someone has a noncombative question when we're trying to understand each others perspective. Seeing my name in (A) sequential edit summaries; (B) in all-caps; and (C) when in my opinion you are the only one arguing ..... it just feels overly combative and is not serving any purpose. I can't point to any policy that backs me up except expectations of common courtesy.... would you please not (unintentionally) shout my name in edit summaries quite so much?

Hmm, sorry to bud in :) I'm quite probably guilty of doing this once in a while[11] ... the reason is not to shout, or to prod, but because a short of a long name is usually capitalized (ie. i'd expect KDP for me, not kdp etc).

This is perhaps the most limp-wristed arbcom committee yet. It is more apparent to me than ever that one need not be even slightly repentant for calling half the editors on this website every foul name in the book, so long as you've got enough lackies around to twist knots in the facts. This committee obviously wants to pass the buck, and it will get passed since I can see no chance of reform if there is no motivation to do so.

They already had a chance to address the problem and failed to do so, so it doesn't surprise me one bit. I do find it ridiculously absurd that some editors are trying to justify MF's misconduct with someone else's misconduct. In what crazy world do two wrongs make a right? Can you imagine this discussion:
"Yes, officer, I burned my neighbor's garage and killed their dog, but they stole my car last week and poisened my cat."
"Well, OK, as long as both sides are guilty, there's no point it doing anything about it. Carry on."

Your block log indicates you have no idea what civility means as it is most impressive...not just 24 hours, but weeks at a time...and nothing is learned, perhaps you need a new idol? Please explain how my posting above was incivil and I shall modify it to suit your definition. Perhaps calling people arsehole, or asshole, cunts, and well, you name it, is your idea of civility?

I saw this edit during my topic ban and could not object then, but the edit summary is mistaken. The edit was supported by three other editors in this discussion. Would you please restore that wording?

The wording was the consensus of two different discussions. The fact that you could not participate in the last one is irrelevent.

I am posting it to your talk page because I figured that, rather than dragging people through yet another absurd discussion about such a small and harmless change that improves the wording, seeing if you would undo the change yourself was more suitable.

Wait - so rather than dragging everyone through "yet another absurd discussion" (your own words), you decided to drag me into one of these absurd discussions? Again, I suggest the following:
  • Propose your change on the article talk page (not my talk page; I don't WP:OWN this article; your suggested change should be judged on its own merits).
  • Explain why your change improves the article
  • Obtain consensus for your suggested change.
This seems simple enough. Please don't post to my talk page again.

First, thanks for closing the Star Wars Episode VII AfD.[12] That said, I'm a bit confused about your closing rationale. You said that WP:NOTCRYSTAL carried the most weight with your decision. Can you be a little more specific? Which part of WP:NOTCRYSTAL did it violate and how did it violate it? Thanks.

Hi
The arguements concerning CRYSTAL in the discussion were mostly "not enough information yet", and also by extension of CRYSTAL, it violates WP:NFF (which stands on CRYSTAL as its foundation, though it refers to an alternate shortcut: WP:FUTURE), because principle photography has not been started yet.
This is noted not only in the main part of CRYSTAL, about future events, but also specifically noted in point #5 at WP:NOT#CRYSTAL.
I hope this helps clarify. That said, if you have further questions (requests for clarification), I am happy to clarify a close. - jc37 15:40, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-11-07T15:40:00.000Z","author":"Jc37","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Jc37-2012-11-07T15:40:00.000Z-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2012-11-07T13:22:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Glad you're thinking about that last post, because it had me scatching my head big time. I'm not exactly sure what you've been trying to get at, but to me it seems like you trying to say that the sources we use to establish notability do not have to be reliable, as required by WP:V. The policy says "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list." Significant coverage in non-reliable sources cannot be used to establish notability.

That might not be what you intended, and I suspect it wasn't, but I just wanted to ask you to clear that up in your answer.

Hi, A Quest For Knowledge. I noticed you removed a tag that I put on the article List of Start Menu replacements for Windows 8. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. I placed the template because the links do not seem to meet the criteria at WP:ELYES and in fact some of them lead to promotional product pages (see WP:ELNO). If you disagree please let me know! --Noiratsi (talk) 21:37, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-12-04T21:37:00.000Z","author":"Noiratsi","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Noiratsi-2012-12-04T21:37:00.000Z-External_links_in_article_body","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2012-12-04T22:27:00.000Z-Noiratsi-2012-12-04T21:37:00.000Z"]}}-->

Sorry, at first I thought the tag was placed there by a bot. I'm not sure if I would have reverted if I knew it was a person. But yes, I do disagree. I've seen such lists before where the company website was listed as link. I can't remember any of them off the top of my head, but a search reveals List of software for molecular mechanics modeling that does this. There are others, too. Granted List of Start Menu replacements for Windows 8 isn't in a table format yet, but that's something that can be done later.

Well, I'm just looking at history. It's a predictable pattern: someone proposes a ban, Malleus' supporters whine and cry, Malleus' enemies whine and cry, and at the end there's no consensus for anything. I don't endorse the way Malleus chooses to interact with people sometimes, but a dramafest at ANI is not the way to resolve the problem.

Wait, your actions contributed to the pattern, and justify your contribution to the problem by saying it was going to happen anyway?

Look AQFK, as much as I think MF is uncivil, and I have very strong feelings about civility, your RFAR probably set back your goals by years - assuming your goal was a site ban. The wise among us pick not only our battles, but when to fight those battles. This specific set of incidents was not the right battle, nor the right time.

I don't have any goals to get MF site-banned. I just want him to treat other editors with respect and in a professional manner. If MF apologized and promised to self-censor, I'd happily withdraw the request. But I haven't seen any acknowledgement of wrong-doing or any attempt to do better.

No, I didn't look at the sources, but I'll accept on good faith your assertion that they were poor. I wouldn't have a problem with the deletion if you said, "I tried to find sources but I can't, so I'm removing the content" or "I think this information is wrong and it's poorly sourced, so I'm removing the content". We don't remove valid but unsourced material simply for the sake of it being unsourced. Another approach would be to remove the source but add a {fact} tag to it.

The case is not going to be accepted. MF has either retired or is taking a break [14]. The calls for sanctions against you for filing will blow over. There's really no point in continuing to add to your statement, I'd suggest you go do something else more wiki-fun.

You've nothing to be sorry about AQFK. The chilling threats and ill-informed statements about third party filing in response to your request were entirely predictable. I'd ignore them if I were you. I'm only here as I was about to post this on MF's talk page in response to his comments about how persecuted he is, but he 'retired' before I could post it. I thought you might appreciate the sentiment anyway. Yours, a person of European extraction and over the age of consent, who has been known to drink beer and say fuck in the company of friends, but is still able to work collegiately and professionally with others when in the company of strangers.

For the record, Malleus has said he is going to be leaving a large number of times, mostly after filings against him (which always leads to "he's leaving so why both with this?" comments). I think it is really expecting a lot to think he is serious this time.

I think we've worked together pretty well in the past, but I bit my tongue over the ArbCom request you filed. I really do appreciate that many people think he ought to go, but my purpose here is not to debate that issue. However, it is only fair to inform you that I posted something at User talk:Malleus Fatuorum mentioning your name, and not in a flattering way. (A mild irony is that not long before, I was indirectly supporting you in a mild exchange with Giano, although that's disappeared.)

That's fine. MF doesn't have to leave Wikipedia. He just needs to understand that he should conduct himself in a respectful and professional manner. This is an encyclopedia for heaven's sake. I work in an office and if I regularly attacked my co-workers, I'd get fired. And justifiably so. If he simply abided by WP:CIVIL, all of this would go away. I would try to talk to him, but I don't think he'd be receptive of my help at this point. Perhaps you can reason with him?

Actually, Sphilbrick, this is an editor who failed to understand patient explanations by supportive editors for a long time. Was it really so difficult for him to understand Rschen's suggestion?

We're fools for not having requested an interaction ban between this one and Malleus.

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmies (talkcontribs)

Hi AQFK...hope all is well. The section Drmies was pointing to is now closed. I made a suggestion there and will do so again now is that my advice would be to avoid commenting about Malleus anywhere unless you are directly involved in the dispute. While I don't disagree that everyone has a right to complain about what they believe is dubious commentary by others, no good can come from you (or me) doing so in regards to Malleus. Some may think its a vendetta or something along those lines, so I doubt we'll be taken seriously, especially if we're not directly part of the dispute. Though Drmies was seeking an interaction ban between the two of you, that was shot down, however I really think avoidance of Malleus will benefit you.

Meh. Drmies's proposal was DOA. As several editors noted, I wasn't the one who re-opened the thread. That was someone else. I assume that this was an honest mistake on Drmies's part.
I only made one single comment in that entire discussion. Trying to get an interaction ban on the basis of one commment is bizarre, to say the least.
I don't know why Drmies seems to be out to get me. I seem to recall reporting him for misusing his admin tools to win a content dispute he was directly involved in. Maybe he's still mad at me for that? I don't know.
In any case, I will not shy away from my opinion that editors should treat each other in a respectful, professional manner.
If Drmies disagrees, he's free to start discussions at WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL and have WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL changed. But I won't hold my breath.

Or to put in other words, I think that some of us get too caught up in the various disputes on Wikipedia and neglect big picture. I don't remember who, but someone once said that at the end of our lives, few will say, "I wish I spent more working." Similarly, I don't think anyone will look back on their life and say, "I wish I spent more time arguing on Wikipedia". It's food for thought for keeping things in perspective. YMMV.

  • I noticed your Google CSE comment on another page, and like the idea. I had a similar idea at the end of last year—it's surely better to determine actual usage by neutral-POV searches of reliable sources in English than to have long and bitter arguments—and found that this can also be done with templates. Template:Google RS and Template:Google LC are based on Template:Google. Several other search engines also support the site: protocol, so it would be possible to create similar templates for them too.
  • Unfortunately Google limits you to searching 32 different reliable sources at the same time. So it's not easy to create a single template to cover all the reliable sources in major European countries, for example—and some of them don't have Government-run official sites in English that can be searched this way.
  • WP:SET is a tutorial about researching stuff with Google.

  • I feel that properly researching and neutrally reporting BLP names and places names is critical to the survival of WP as a fair, neutral, and trusted resource. You can see the POV pushers attacking this here and here. I'd particularly appreciate your input at the latter TfD discussion, since this template idea closely resembles your GCSEs—except that the templates based on {{Google RS}} are completely open source; anybody can clone and modify them.

I will assume you were trying to be funny and lighthearted and that it is not necessary to explain to you that it is not actually a "law of the internet" and certainly not a Wikipedia policy and so I will skip right to the part about there being a time and a place for levity and lightheartedness.

I realise that you may consider me to be one of the Malleus "gang" but I've only happened on the recent ANI thread because I, too, am involved in some drama there. Two thoughts: firstly, without having looked beyond what was said in the ANI thread,if you think that was a personal attack then keep well away from India-related articles! Secondly, if you think that people should always be treated with respect then you perhaps should take a look at WP:PACT which, oddly enough, is something that frequently has to be utilised - in spirit, if not always by reference - in relation to those articles. Basically, your idealism is great but the Real World just doesn't work like that.

Quest, if The ed17 should ever notify you that N2e is engaging in mass removals I was wondering if you might then kick a note over to me. I come from the deletion-of-unsourced-material-is-okay-in-theory side of the debate, while still having some reservations about editors who do it habitually. If habitually was what was meant by "systemic" by Ed in this edit that's one thing; if he meant removal of huge chunks of text from a single article on a single occasion, that's another. And that's especially true if N2e {{cn}}-tagged the article and gave an adequate opportunity for response before deleting the stuff. I don't know if N2e's claim that he did is true or not, or what Ed exactly meant, and at this point don't care to spend any time looking to figure it out since all the heat has died down in relation to that particular incident, but if it comes up again I'd like an opportunity to join in the examination and discussion.

I think that two of the major arguments against keeping this (as cited in both AfDs) are that (1) most of the listed items don't have WP articles, (2) somebody is using this to promote their own software. The reason for (1) is explained by a short sentence or paragraph that explains why Pokki is the major contender (sourced from the Pokki article), and argument (2) is demolished by explaining that Pokki is free. I'd think that if you asked User:Ahunt's opinion (he's very active in looking after software articles, and he was one of the people who opposed keeping the list in the first AfD) he'd probably agree that a little useful info. about Pokki easily tips the balance from Delete to Keep. It's particularly useful to readers if it links Pokki (the major contender) with "Start Menu replacements for Win 8". Without this, it's "work out for yourself which, if any, is notable". I'd personally prefer to see a link to a comparison article, but a single sentence of explanation surely makes a huge difference and puts the other camp on your side...

It takes guts to try and get that article to through GAN again...but it is probably a hopeless cause. I do a fair amount of reading on Wikipedia and find a surprisingly large number of articles in my varied interests that don't have green circles or bronze stars atop them...I even check the refs in those articles and am usually impressed that the info is accurately supported by the ref provided. In other words, the 9/11 article doesn't have to have further decorations to be a excellent.

First of all, the sub-heading was neutral. It takes no position one way or another. Second, please don't change my posts. Start your own thread if you don't like mine. Third, you cite FAC instructions regarding subsections for short statements of support or opposition. My question expressed neither support or opposition, so you're citing instructions that don't even apply to my post. Fourth, I don't agree that articles should be nominated for deletion just to determine whether it meets notability. That's something the nominator should attempt to answer before nominating an article for deletion. Please see WP:BEFORE.

Hello, QFN. Starting with your final question, I was working in archives because an update to WP:FAS, which I have maintained since my delegate days, noted a mistake had occurred in archives, which I was correcting (June promotions were listed in May archives [19]).

While updating archives I noted several other older errors or work that had not been completed that I corrected, and I noted non-neutral headings were beginning to take hold at FAC, which is something that was specifically discussed when the use of sub-headings was approved. See Wikipedia_talk:Featured_article_candidates/archive58#Accessibility_of_headings; sub-headings should not be worded in a way that might influence subsequent reviewers.

Next, I did not say that an article should be nominated for deletion; any article that meets notability is eligible for FAC, and the place to question notability is not FAC-- it's AFD. Finally, I see you have restored the heading which doesn't comply with FAC instructions. I won't revert since it is already in archives and can't influence subsequent reviewers, and will leave it to the delegates to assure these issues don't take hold going forward at FAC.

Note that to violate 3RR, you have to make 4 reversions (or more). Since I didn't revert even once, claiming that "this is possibly a 3RR violation"[20] is totally wrong. As for harassment: noricing policy violations is explicitly excluded from harassment. That Jimbo doesn't like his violations to be highlighted is obvious, but neglecting his wishes in such a case is not helpful at all.

I will block you for that behaviour without hesitation. It's not a baseless threat, simply a statement of fact. You would be neither the first nor the last editor I had blocked for intentionally refusing to use inline citations when WP:V demanded them. You consciously restored material without inline citations, despite being aware that the material had been challenged. You were aware that the material had been removed twice, and you were aware that editors examining the blue links in question had stated that they did not support the claim made. Your editing was a conscious and deliberate attempt to retain unsourced material after a challenge. Blueboar has made a good faith effort to repair the damage you have done and he still cannot find source for several of the entries, putting them closer and closer to the truly unsourceable category.—Kww(talk) 15:59, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-07-02T15:59:00.000Z","author":"Kww","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Kww-2013-07-02T15:59:00.000Z-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2013-07-02T15:29:00.000Z","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2013-07-02T16:11:00.000Z-Kww-2013-07-02T15:59:00.000Z"]}}-->
First, you cannot block me because you're involved. Second, if you're going around blocking editors without a good reason, you need to have your admin bit taken way. We don't need cowboy admins overriding community consensus. Third, you're the one who's edits damaged the encyclopedia and I shouldn't have to clean up after your mess. Fourth, the fact that Blueboar and me have been able to find sources so easily[21] proves that your so-called "challenge" was completely and utterly meritless.

I'm not going to block you over this particular bit of misbehaviour because I'm involved in this particular dispute. The diff you have pointed to still includes four unsourced statements, including a "citation needed" tag which you know doesn't qualify as meeting your burden. It's readily apparent that you restored material without having verified it. If you restore material that has been challenged, it is your responsibility to provide an in-line citation supporting the material if you choose to restore it.

Most of the content is now sourced which means it's readily apparent that you deleted material without looking for cites. That's the problem here. Please read up on WP:PRESERVE:
Fix problems if you can, flag or remove them if you can't. Preserve appropriate content. As long as any of the facts or ideas added to the article would belong in a "finished" article, they should be retained if they meet the requirements of the three core content policies: Neutral point of view (which doesn't mean No point of view), Verifiability and No original research. Either clean up the writing on the spot, or tag it as necessary. If you think a page needs to be rewritten or changed substantially, go ahead and do so, but preserve any reasonable content on the article's talk page, along with a comment about why you made the change. Do not remove information solely because it is poorly presented; instead, improve the presentation by rewriting the passage. The editing process tends to guide articles through ever-higher levels of quality over time. Great Wikipedia articles can come from a succession of editors' efforts.
Yes, I'm aware there's an entry that has a fact tag. Hopefully, someone will be able to find a source. The other entries don't have a fact tag so I didn't look for any sources.

I am being reasonable. If someone was going around removing thousands of lists a day based on them being unsourced, that would be disruptive. That is not what happened here. This was a case of one editor removing one list from one article, and you failing to meet your obligation to source the material when you restored it. I removed the incorrectly restored material, and you restored it directly afterwards, in blatant and intentional defiance of WP:BURDEN. After being reminded of your responsibility, your reaction was that you hoped that someone else would take care of it in the future. That's not how it works: if you restore material after it has been removed for being unsourced, it is solely your responsibility to add an inline citation. As for my promise of a block being hollow, it's not: I haven't seen that you have done the same thing since I warned you.

Hello, A Quest For Knowledge, I just wanted to inform you that I edited one of your comments on the Obama Talk page. It seems tht your addition of the 'Ping' script caused the page to display some sort of HTML error that directed people to a redirect discussion. I don't know how to fix it, so I removed it from your comment. I just wanted to let you know the reason why and that I was not refactoring your comment for any nefarious reasons. :-) - Thanks.

Hi. Two editors are advocating for the exclusion of any mention in the Zeitgeist: The Movie article that Peter Joseph, the creator of that film has stated publicly that words attributed to him in a story cited as a source in the article misquoted him, and that he has not distanced himself from the ideas expressed in that film, as that cited source indicates. I have responded to their arguments, but neither of them has responded directly to my counterarguments, but simply repeat the same statements of theirs over and over. Myself and one other editor disagree with them, so two editors are for the material's inclusion, and two are for its exclusion, with no sign of consensus in sight. Can you please offer your viewpoint in the discussion so that we can achieve consensus? Thanks.

I don't believe that it's necessary to provide a rationale in this situation. This is not an AfD (for example) where you have to reference policy/guidelines as justification. Instead, this is a discussion about the policy/guideline itself. I'm an editor in good standing, and my !vote is as good as any other's. If NYB disagrees, he's free to open a discussion with me.

Apparently, SA was blocked for numerous violations of socking. The block fell under community authority, which was lifted at AN. At the same time, SA was also under an AE-authorized topic ban for other issues. The AN discussion resulted in a lift of the block, but not the topic ban. The topic ban wasn't even discussed. After being unblocked, SA immediately went to violate the topic-ban.

Okay..I get it...but the truth is he's more on our side than not...meaning he is usually there to keep the wackos at bay.

Neither do I...socking is an issue but for the record I do know of a few originally unannounced socks that helped me deal with various issues and even copyediting concerns who used those sock acocunts completely without malice...they did so to protect themselves from potential problems that might undermine their main accounts. The socking SA did shouldn't be condoned and I tend to agree with Canens that ROPE may be in play here...I'm trying to see the positive about the unblock and hope that it can remain that way as I have found SA to more benefit than harm overall.--MONGO 20:27, 11 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-08-11T20:27:00.000Z","author":"MONGO","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-MONGO-2013-08-11T20:27:00.000Z-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2013-08-11T12:45:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Yes, I see your point. It will affect others. That's an unfortunate consequence. I'm not at all familiar with Arbcom beyond this case so this might sound silly, but is there any way to engage the wider community? I know ArbCom is supposed to be the last resort venue, but frankly, I think the original ANI could have solved this if some admins had taken control back then. I've seen them deal with far worse than what occurred that night back in February. Might it be possible to ask at AN for admins to comment?

I'll give it a few days and see if an Arb responds, but if FoF seems like it's going to pass, I'll start a discussion at WP:EDITWAR.

Sorry to rain on your parade. (Re EW RfC). Having said that, I'm very troubled by many aspects of the Tea Party Arbcom case. One of the troubling aspects is the notion that the evidence cited to support a finding or sanction "simply" has to be illustrative. While I can appreciate the logistical challenge of the alternative, it means that if someone were sanctioned, and provided an exhaustive refutation of every single point cited in the finding, it still wouldn't be enough, as the committee could simply say those specific points were a subset of the evidence used to reach the conclusion.--SPhilbrick(Talk) 13:42, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-09-04T13:42:00.000Z","author":"Sphilbrick","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sphilbrick-2013-09-04T13:42:00.000Z-EW","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2013-09-04T14:05:00.000Z-Sphilbrick-2013-09-04T13:42:00.000Z","c-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:43:00.000Z-Sphilbrick-2013-09-04T13:42:00.000Z"]}}-->

But that's what the evidence phase is for. If I'm reading this correctly, they spent roughly 4-5 months (March 2013 to July 2013) collecting evidence. So they should already have this.

(edit conflict)Yes, but it would seem to goes even beyond the "illustrative" concept, as to be illustrative there would have be at least one diff that demonstrated a concrete instance of the type of misconduct being illustrated. No?
In retrospect, the Moderated discussion probably should not have happened, and the case settled as per the normal time frame and frame of reference. Some of the originally named parties had been sanctioned in relation to the same article in 2010.
There would also seem, however, to be a lack of will to enforce sourcing policies against editors asserting their political "beliefs" over and against reliable sources. Some arbitrators have expressed an opinion that seems to be close to stating that strict enforcement of WP:RS would come close to engaging in judging content[29], while another arbitrator has made an FoF against me that includes a content related assertion. --Ubikwit 連絡 見学/迷惑 14:43, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-09-04T14:43:00.000Z","author":"Ubikwit","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:43:00.000Z-Sphilbrick-2013-09-04T13:42:00.000Z","replies":["c-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:47:00.000Z-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:43:00.000Z"]}}-->
It could be argued that the statement made by AGK in response to Snowed in this section [30] argues against the notion that arbitrators have adopted the "illustrative" principle. That statement

The only relevant question to ask in connection with each finding is, "does it make an incorrect allegation?"

has since been quoted twice on the PD talk page.--Ubikwit 連絡 見学/迷惑 14:47, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-09-04T14:47:00.000Z","author":"Ubikwit","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:47:00.000Z-Ubikwit-2013-09-04T14:43:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

You said:

But that's what the evidence phase is for.

I had the same thought. But notice this, specifically:

I think that for the large part, the evidence and workshop phases were ignored in this case.

The entire quote, in case someone feels my excerpt was out of context.

I think that for the large part, the evidence and workshop phases were ignored in this case. I found some helpful things there, but honestly I just set aside some amount over time over a few weeks and read all of the talk page of the articles. I can't comment if others did the same or not but I would suspect that they did. I found that the evidence provided was good but not all encompassing. This was an interesting case, one which I was not especially enamored about (either the initial community's response or our actions). I will understand why, when all is said and done, people will label this as the worst case of 2013. But most Arbitrators also weren't given a ton to work with. We had to come up with the proposed decision functionally from scratch, and those don't end up going that well. I'm comfortable with your assessment with this as a process failure, but I'm not sure if it could have gone that much better.

As for where this discussion should go...WT:A/R or the proposed decision page. Take your pick.

The process underway is not an RfC, it is an RM; it is not supposed to be neutrally worded, it is supposed to make the case for the proposed move, which those opposed to the move can then rebut in the discussion. (Specifically, the RM filing instructions state: 'Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate).

Given that the last discussion was so contentious that it required an ArbCom case to sort through and that several editors face topic-bans and admins face desysopping, one would hope that we follow best practices. Unfortunately, since the legitimacy of the discussion is now is serious disrepute, I fear that we're just guaranteeing that the matter be left unresolved and we'll just have a third discussion on how to handle the article title. Is that what you want? I don't think so, but that is the risk that we run if the MR continues down its current path.

So I guess what I'm saying is do we want to resolve the content dispute, or extend it?

Please provide some evidence for your proposition that "the legitimacy of the discussion is now is serious disrepute".

I'm not sure what you're asking me since I believe what said was pretty clear. I gave three reasons. In order of severity:
  1. The wording should be neutral so as to not unduly sway the !voting or the consensus building process. As a point of comparison, imagine voting in a presidential election and the voting booth contained a long list of all the great things Obama is doing for America and how terrible McCain is (or vice versa). Such a scenario would be completely unacceptable. That's basically what we have here.
  2. It should be an RfC so as to better reflect community consensus. MRs rarely attract outside opinions from uninvolved editors.
  3. This is bad timing considering that ArbCom is in the middling of finalizing their decision. I expect that ArbCom will topic-ban the most disruptive editors. It should be easier for consensus building process to proceed after ArbCom completes.
Did I answer your question? If not, I'm not sure what you're asking me.

Let me offer a comparable situation. Not long ago, you !voted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jesse R. Waugh to delete the article. However, you raised no complaint about the fact that the deletion nomination was entirely one-sided, containing only arguments for deletion of the article, and none for keeping it. In your view, should that wording have been neutral, to avoid swaying the consensus building process?

It was me who moved your discussion, to centralize it with other people who had basically said the same thing; to me it felt like more of a !vote on the process, and not on the topic, and a few people had proposed that it be moved. No harm was intended and I didn't mean to discount your !vote, and will leave the 'abstain' as is and sorry if what I did bothered you. That said, I think I generally agree with you, and I had wanted to put together a more neutral statement in collaboration with others (in the same way we had built the whole move request that way), and had asked for input on same; however, the cat was released from the bag and Josh was storming around revert-warring with me, so I had to give up. In any case, the vast majority of RMs do have a single-sided statement at the top, and while I think a neutral RFC would have been better, the RM as it is still isn't fundamentally flawed - the evidence was carefully collected and is a neutral as can be, and people are free to draw their own conclusions in spite of the move header.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 14:17, 2 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-10-02T14:17:00.000Z","author":"Obiwankenobi","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Obiwankenobi-2013-10-02T14:17:00.000Z-Re:_Talk:Bradley_Manning\/October_2013_move_request","replies":[],"displayName":"Obi-Wan Kenobi"}}-->

The degree of wikilawyering which is going on here is making my head turn. Just letting you know, User: Skyring has thrown your warning back into your face and been whitewashed as well, where the reviewing admin really didn't get into the dispute. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_noticeboard%2FEdit_warring&diff=578449117&oldid=578448623#User:Skyring_reported_by_User:Skyring_.28Result:_No_violation.29

The admin is correct. I forgot that if the edits are consecutive, they count as one. But Skyring/Pete is being disruptive. I think they're blockable on that alone. You can file a report at AN/I but you never know if the admins there will do anything.

Following the completion of a previous BRD on Talk:Lynx (spacecraft) (link to previous discussion here), where User:Skyring (aka "Pete") was unable to gain a consensus on changing the lede sentence descriptive noun in the Lynx (spacecraft) article from "spaceplane" to "concept" (originally changed by Skyring/Pete on 12 Oct), Skyring/Pete has again made a Bold edit and changed the descriptive noun in the lede sentence, this time from "spaceplane" to "program."

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Ludwig von Mises Institute. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. You do not have a BLP exception. There are editors questioning the reliability of the source, but they have not been successful at impeaching it. That's why they left a notice, as opposed to removing the material.

Greetings, AQFK. I hope you'll reconsider your thinking re the mass deletion of expert/economist blogs on the Murphy page. Right now the section is outright misleading because the blogs have been purged. User:Carolmooredc placed an erroneous "undue" tag because, with your having deleted the specific information about Murphy's prediction (double digit inflation -- as measured by CPI -- was supposed to happen in 2012), it is entirely unclear as to what the time frame of Murphy's prediction was. Please refer to WP:ABOUTSELF to understand why Murphy's own views/predictions can be substantiated by his own blog, and then restore that content. Afterwards, you will realize that all the factual content referenced in the other expert blogs (namely, that Murphy predicted inflation at much higher rates than occurred) is already contained in the article, and that the expert blogs are merely offering their opinions on those claims rather than stating facts about Murphy.

Hi there, A Quest For Knowledge, I saw your edits to MicroStrategy and the Help Desk discussion and wanted to clarify the situation with that article for you. (I've left a similar message with Yintan and have also left a quick note on the article's Talk page.) The main thing I'd like to explain is that the article was written by me, while working on a contract basis on behalf of MicroStrategy. As I always do, I disclosed this COI on the article's Talk page, along with anywhere else I discussed the article on Wikipedia at the time, and I never edited the page directly. Although prior to my work on the page, someone from MicroStrategy had made direct edits, I went to great pains to explain that this is not best practice and they stopped. So far as I know, no one from the company has edited the MicroStrategy article or any other pages related to the company since.

Regarding your edits to the article, I understand that you disagree with certain wording from my version and felt it was promotional. I think your view and subsequent edits are completely reasonable, however I'd like to make clear that the draft I wrote was reviewed by independent editors, who approved by this language and moved it live.

One thing that is concerning to me, is that you flagged "scalable" as not being supported by the InformationWeek source, however it was. I'll admit that wording choice was one that gave me pause (it was something that MicroStrategy had specifically asked for, to explain that its software can be used by a couple of people or by 1000s), so I understand its removal if you feel such wording is not appropriate, however I disagree about it not being in the source. Here's the wording in InformationWeek: "The new version is also more scalable--it works with multiterabyte data warehouses and provides new caching, personalization, and security features." It stands to reason that if the author describes a new version of the software as "more scalable", then the software is "scalable". I'm not necessarily asking for the wording to be added back; I just wanted to defend my work here.

@WWB Too: The cited article says that it's "more scalable" than the previous version. That's a statement of comparison and doesn't necessarily mean that it is scalable. It could be that the scalability of the previous version was poor and the new version isn't as bad as the previous version. In any case, that article was from 2001. Even if it was scalable in 2001, that doesn't mean that it's still scalable today. IOW, the source is woefully out of date.

Thank you very much AQFK for your helpful involvement in the recent disruption over at Lynx (spacecraft). I have just closed the third of three BRDs on that Talk page (the more complicated one, in which a number of primary sources had been deleted). On each one of those three BRDs, no consensus emerged to support the original edits. Your part in the wikidiscussion is very much appreciated.

Since the comments on the use of primary sources were spread all over that Talk page, I have endeavored to summarize the consensus that emerged in a section on that Talk page: Talk:Lynx_(spacecraft)#Use_of_Primary_sources. If you might be willing to review that summary, and comment on whether it got the consensus right, I would very much appreciate it. I will of course quite look forward to fixing it if I got anything wrong. Cheers.

@N2e: I'm not sure how much assistance I can provide since I stopped following the discussion a while ago. In fact, I don't even remember how I discovered the article in the first place. I'm not really good as summarizing a discussion unless I really participated in it. However, I did look over your summary from a policy perspective and from a policy perspective, you seemed to have summed everything quite nicely.

Well, thanks very much. That particular disruptive editor had a nasty habit of running off good editors with tenditious wikilawyering and turning many discussion topics to the editor who was opposing him rather than merely about the content. So it's been a bit lonely to try to stay with it and keep dealing with improving the article, while remaining civil, in that environment. (Sort of like swimming in the Hudson River in 1968; one had to push the tur** out of the way to get anything done.) But I just don't like bullies, so I guess that gave me some additional energy in the matter.
Even if you didn't follow the last 20 or 50% of the Talk page discussion over there, if you would consider leaving a comment just on the wikipolicy side of your review, that would be helpful.
Again, very glad you went over to that discussion in the first place, and had a hand in reviewing what was going on, and responding helpfully on several occasions.

I'm going to jump in here about the notification issue only. Generally, administrators notify editors of sanctions. However, a non-administrator may do so provided they do not pass themselves off as an administrator. In this instance, AQFK did not pass himself off as an admin. However, the notification, in my view, was flawed. If you read, WP:AEGS carefully, it says "For convenience, the template {{subst:Austrian economics enforcement}} may be used by an administrator, or an individual message containing the same information." AQFK's message did not "contain[] the same information." It was highly personalized. If I were a non-admin and was going to issue such a notice - and it shouldn't be given lightly - I would keep everything in the templated message the same but change the very last sentence to "This notice has been logged at WP:AEGS."--Bbb23 (talk) 01:59, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-11-04T01:59:00.000Z","author":"Bbb23","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bbb23-2013-11-04T01:59:00.000Z-Re:_\"Warning\"","replies":["c-Liz-2013-11-04T11:08:00.000Z-Bbb23-2013-11-04T01:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

That is very interesting to read, Bbb23. As I said, I'm more familiar with debates involving the Pseudoscience Discretionary Sanctions and there are times when every Editor with a sympathetic point of view to a subject has gotten templated, warning them that their behavior could prompt sanctions (blocks). The messages are very intimidating and I can see where it would cause an Editor to just cease participating in the article Talk Page discussion. My own concern about this was it was only people with Position A warning people with Position B. It seems like AC/DS would target disruptive behavior, not the ideas or belief systems that an individual holds so they would be apply to both those with Position A and Position B. Or is this an incorrect understanding?

@Bbb23: Thanks for the advice. Next time, I'll use the template. But I think some further clarification is required. @NE Ent: has reverted my log entry[34] claiming that it was invalid because I am not an admin. This directly contradicts the advice you just gave me. While it's been a while since I worked in a topic space which community-enacted general sanctions, I do know for a fact that in AE enforced discretionary sanctions, any editor is allowed to make these warnings/notifications.

I didn't suggest you use the template but a slightly modified version of the template. I don't have a problem with NE Ent's revert, but that's because your warning, as I stated above, deviated too much from the template.

For what it's worth, since I'm not an administrator, I don't inform anyone about discretionary sanctions that might apply to them, relying instead on an an administrator to do so. However, in this case, I think the reminder or notification was appropriate...I mean, we'd hate to see them get topic banned or sanctioned, so it's best to let them know if their edits are not compatible with the topic area.--MONGO 12:33, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-11-04T12:33:00.000Z","author":"MONGO","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-MONGO-2013-11-04T12:33:00.000Z-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2013-11-04T11:23:00.000Z","replies":["c-MilesMoney-2013-11-04T17:21:00.000Z-MONGO-2013-11-04T12:33:00.000Z"]}}-->
As it turns out, that's not at issue there. The subject of the questionable warning voted for the sanctions. She knows they exist. The only reason to notify her is for an admin to warn her about a perceived violation. That's not something AQFK can do.

Hi, if you haven't already, please take note of the details of Template:Austrian economics enforcement. This is a general reminder, and not given in response to misconduct. I've decided to err on the side of caution to try to make sure that people involved in this topic area are aware of the discretionary sanctions. Consider this a "no-fault" notification. If you're already aware (which you probably are), feel free to remove this message.

I've restored the notice to the general sanctions page. As it says on the template I linked to "This notice does not necessarily mean your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions." Since you have edited Ludwig von Mises Institute in the past month, I thought it was appropriate to make you aware of this. The passage you quoted in your edit summary "Prior to any sanction being imposed, the editor shall be given a warning with a link to the community discussion and, when appropriate, should be counseled on specific steps that he or she can take to improve his or her editing", refers to the steps that must be taken before a sanction is issued, not the steps that must be taken before someone is notified that the topic area is under general sanctions.

See User_talk:BD2412 the topic ban discussed by the community was with respect to the article and The topic ban as discussed by the community related to the specific article, and nothing else. The editor has recently been editing a number of articles very closely related to that article, and involving BLPs. (expect a stalker to comment imminently) Cheers.

I'm following up on this because I just noticed that you actually did make a formal administrative warning. A consequence of this is that a notification was added to the sanctions page. Maybe you did it not knowing what you were doing, but I'm going to bring it to the attention of the admins so they can remove the warning from the case decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate change properly. __ E L A Q U E A T E 05:52, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-14T05:52:00.000Z","author":"Elaqueate","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Elaqueate-2014-01-14T05:52:00.000Z-I'm_going_to_get_an_Admin_to_reverse_the_consequences_of_the_warning_you_mistake","replies":["c-Collect-2014-01-14T06:04:00.000Z-Elaqueate-2014-01-14T05:52:00.000Z"],"displayName":"__ E L A Q U E A T E"}}-->

I suggest you read the current wording about notifying people about sanctions, and the use of the log page for such warnings. There has been recent discussion, but notifying people that an article or area is under sanctions does not at this point require an admin. Wikipedia:General sanctions "Any editor may make another editor aware of the sanctions and then log the notification. " Cheers.

Collect is correct. Any editor may notify any other editor of the sanctions. Yes, the template is poorly worded, and no, I did not know it at the time, but either way, the notification is valid.

@NE Ent: You need to read it again. Nowhere does it state that an admin is required to issue a warning. Sanctions require an admin, but not notifications. The sad thing is that this all started because I tried keep a WP:BLP from becoming an WP:ATTACK page. And this is the thanks that I get. No good deed goes unpunished, I suppose. BTW, the editor who was adding the disparaging content has now been topic-banned for violating BLP (proving I was right all along). In any case, editing Wikipedia is a hobby and hobbies are supposed to be fun, and fixing this article is more trouble than it's worth. As I explain here[39], I've removed the article from my watchlist and have dropped out of the discussion. Even though I don't have to, in the interest of closure, I was going to self-revert, but I see that you beat me to it.[40] Since it is no longer possible for me to self-revert, I don't think any further action is required by me and I consider the matter closed.

First, I have a formatted list in the MilesMoney banning - in the ANI here.
Second, there are two other editors who have been involved in the majority of these disputes, including bringing issues to noticeboards: User:Binksternet and User:The Four Deuces. I don't know if I can add them and don't have time to study the arbitration process in general til tomorrow.
Also, you need to reformat your notices. I didn't even see it at first cause you are missing two equal signs. Others also may miss it.

I have no confidence in ARBCOM's ability to handle this dispute. First, they are not able to resolve content disputes. In the Tea Party case, they took 6 months to reach a decision, said they did not understand the case and narrowly voted against banning everyone listed in the case. I was added at the last minute without having been involved in the disputes and no evidence provided. In the end, several editors were topic-banned, although how they chose them who knows. I also have little confidence in the administrators who self-select to enforce ARBCOM decisions.

There are already procedures for blocking and banning editors. Fortunately editors who choose to violate content policies are also likely to violate behavioral polices, which is the only way to remove them from articles. But if you hand it to ARBCOM, you could get everyone blocked.

Ditto to TFD. Dealing with the problematic editors who violate policy one issue at a time til the community sees the problem and deals with it is the best way to go, frustrating as it may be. I saw what others were saying and put in my two cents, so we'll see what happens. Of course if they narrowly focused on these constant BLP violations which admins refuse to deal with and don't listen to a bunch of phony accusations, then it would be worth it!!Carolmooredc (Talkie-Talkie) 02:18, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-16T02:18:00.000Z","author":"Carolmooredc","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Carolmooredc-2014-01-16T02:18:00.000Z-The_Four_Deuces-2014-01-15T20:29:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Backdoor (computing), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page SSL (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for your comments at AE.

You say "apparently this user has screwed this up so many times that the community has decided that they cannot be trusted to do this again."

Actually this restriction is from Arbcom. Arbcom is invoked when the community cannot resolve the issue - I foolishly waived other possible community resolution, having a naive faith in Arbcom at the time.

If you care to look at the findings (which are rather long and boring) you will see nothing about "screwing up". (What you do see is pretty baseless too, but that's another matter.)

I can read and understand Spanish and actually do all of my research for UFO AfDs in Spanish and in English, FYI. For Portuguese and Chinese UFO incidents, I usually ask for help. Please be more careful before you accuse me of not doing due diligence in these areas.

Hello A Quest For Knowledge, thank you for your feedback in the conspiracy theories RfC and previous discussion. I have recently found some new sources that discuss conspiracy theories within the historical context of 9/11 (Falk and 9/11 Encyclopedia). I know you were concerned about the historical context [41][42], so I was wondering if you could take a look and see if they meet your standards? I included a link to Google Books for both of them in the citations and they seem to be reliable and relevant. Also I reworded the second sentence of the proposal entirely, hopefully it's better now. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

No, it doesn't. I was already aware of the 9/11 Encyclopedia so you haven't introduced anything new there (search the talkpage archives for past discussions). As for Richard A. Falk, his area of expertise is law, not history. In order to argue that 9/11 conspiracy theories should be included in the main 9/11 article, you need to prove that at least a significant minority of historians who advocate conspiracy theories and have had these conspiracy theories published by respected, peer-reviewed journals. To the best of my knowledge, there is not one such publication, let alone a significant minority.

I noticed that you consistently cite the WP:NPOV page, which starts by saying "Editing from a neutral point of view (NPOV) means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without bias, all of the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic." I gave you two very reliable sources that do exactly this. Your increasingly stringent 'requirements' for inclusion do not appear to be supported by any wikipedia policy.

No, you haven't, and nor do you appear to understand what I have been saying. Let me repeat myself. Per WP:NPOV, generally speaking, there are three categories of POVs:
  1. Mainstream viewpoints
  2. Significant minority viewpoints
  3. Insignificant minority viewpoints
Given that, let's examine the quote you cited from WP:NPOV more carefully: ""Editing from a neutral point of view (NPOV) means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without bias, all of the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic." This means that mainstream and significant minority viewpoints should be covered in an article. Insignificant minority viewpoints such as a fringe viewpoint, do not get covered in an article about a mainstream topic. Period. If the fringe viewpoint is notable on its own, then it should be covered in an ancillary article. That ancillary article exists in the form of 9/11 conspiracy theories.
In order to prove that 9/11 conspiracy theories are a significant minority, you need to demonstrate where experts on this subject (i.e. historians) have published papers advocating these conspiracy theories. You have not pointed to a single such article, let along a significant minority. Please understand that reporting on a conspiracy theory is not the same thing as advocating the conspiracy theory.
I'll also add that, quite frankly, I find it a bit offensive for you to accuse me of "increasingly stringent 'requirements' " when this is exactly what I said when you first opened the RfC.[43] A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 14:42, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-08-31T14:42:00.000Z","author":"A Quest For Knowledge","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2014-08-31T14:42:00.000Z-Smitty121981-2014-08-31T05:43:00.000Z","replies":["c-Smitty121981-2014-08-31T17:48:00.000Z-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2014-08-31T14:42:00.000Z"]}}-->
  • Thank you for taking the time to explain more clearly and I apologize if I offended you. In the proposed text the conspiracy theories are discussed as a significant historical Effect (not explanation!) of 9/11, and the sources are very reliable and in agreement in this regard. Given the specific usage, I don't understand the stipulation that a reliable source must be found that "endorses" them, and I found no mention of this in the guidelines either. I have also never seen a guideline that limits sources and authors to only one specific genre.
  • WP:NPOV says "Neutrality requires that each article or other page in the mainspace fairly represents all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in the published, reliable sources." My current proposed paragraph is certainly less prominent than the coverage in the 9/11 Encyclopedia but is equivalent in tone, and I would appreciate it if you would address the coverage in the 9/11 Encyclopedia directly. The book is published by an established publisher as a History reference.
  • Also I have alluded to this many times, but no one has acknowledged it, that the proposal must be considered in the context of and relative to the existing Effects chapter. Let's consider the first one, Health issues - the primary sources are medical journals/organizations and the secondary sources are news reports specifically about the health effects and not 9/11 in general. There is not one single history journal nor history author listed in the current article for health issues. Yet health issues are still significant historically as an Effect of 9/11, and that is how the current wikipedia article and the 9/11 Encyclopedia depicts them. I'd also appreciate it if you'd address this point specifically. I certainly don't like lung disease, but I'm not trying to prevent it from being mentioned as an effect of 9/11. Praise for lung disease would be completely inappropriate though. Think about the conspiracy theories as a horrible disease, and maybe you can see where I'm coming from?

  • a) They're already covered as an effect. I don't see a need to expand the coverage. b) I don't at all agree that it is proportionate to reliable sources. c) I'm sure there's lots of problems with the article.

Thank you for your response, I see we differ somewhat on A and C but I understand your view better now and am satisfied with your response. I think with B, what you said is definitely true of older sources. What I have found is that conspiracy theories are rarely mentioned, if at all, in historical 9/11 sources published before 2008-9. It seems to me like newer sources are much more likely to include a description, particularly from 2011 onward. Thanks again for the responses.

The RfC: Is Westeros.org a suitable source for this content? was closed with the result that Westeros.org is reliable but that whether the disputed text was valuable enough to include should be addressed separately. The closing editor recommended that all participants in the RfC and related RSN discussion be informed that such a discussion was under way:

RfC: Should the article state which chapters appear in the episode?

If any of you wish to make a statement on this matter, you are welcome to do so and your contribution would be greatly appreciated. If any of you would prefer to stay away from this dispute, I think we can all get that too.

I don't have an opinion on the article, not a topic I'm familiar with, nor would I want to be, as it is obviously a hotbed for disputes. I just warned you both early enough because I didn't want to see someone drive by and block you both. Topics like this need good discussion, so I would encourage you to engage and get a larger discussion with more opinions. Typically, that tends to get us closer to what policy expects in the article.

Ah, ANI still remains on watchlist since I posted there earlier, will have to remove that. So, I have to ask you about that line, because at the moment a small handful of editors are using that line of thought carte blancheto keep the tag on. When do "POV issues" in any contentious article ever go away? Who decides that? The editors that want this tag in place have made their editing concerns known on the talk page, but have never gained a consensus for their edits to the article proper. At some point, do you think that lack of consensus for suggested edits translates to lack of consensus for a pov tag?

Let's clarify a few things. I've been the strongest defender of BLP in the article and its offshoot - I came to the article after finding it was at ANI with a wall of BLP attacks and misrepresentations. I was the one who was out (and did) remove all the Huffington Post sources from the article and this BLP nightmare from the Daily Beast which Ran1 and Cwobeel defended. I am continually attacked and reverted for removing BLP violations by these two editors and I even took Cwobeel to ANI after the reinsertion of a major BLP violation. The claim that an op-ed piece calling McCulloch a manipulative, criminal and a racist is not acceptable from Huffington Post or Daily Beast and etc. I'd like some assistance from someone who knows BLP well because the article has a multitude of BLP issues still.

I also looked it up at the Mayo Clinic[46], National Cancer Institute[47], American Heart Association[48] and Encyclopedia Britannica[49] (which theoretically should produce an article roughly similar to ours) and none of these sources describes acupuncture as pseudoscience.

Nor did I: I described Traditional Chinese Medicine as "pseudoscience", and said that the consensus on acupuncture itself was that it was "not shown to be consistently effective for anything and lacking in any theoretical foundation".

The Arbitration Committee has closed a case request by motion with the following remedy being enacted:

In lieu of a full case, the Arbitration Committee authorises standard discretionary sanctions for any edit about, and for all pages relating to Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Any sanctions that may be imposed should be logged at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Acupuncture. The Committee urges interested editors to pursue alternative means of dispute resolution such as RFC's or requests for mediation on the underlying issues. If necessary, further requests concerning this matter should be filed at the requests for clarification and amendment page.

The information is sourced. See the talk page. If we need to clarify the sources, let's do so.

To add: Everyone else agrees that all we needed was a secondary, reliable source that tied everything together. We've done this, but you disagree. I suggest:

  • Elaborating on what problems, if any you feel have not been addressed from your stated concerns.
  • Elaborating on what new problems you see with the current consensus by everyone else that the material is fine with the new references.
  • Responding to others comments, especially concerning the policies that apply.

As far as I understand it, you feel the new source isn't reliable, or maybe that the material is undue, or both. It would be helpful if you could clarify.

You seem to be stating that we need a source that predates work done on Wikipedia, because Wikipedia may have influenced subsequent sources, regardless of the new sources being reliable.

You might want to read how the RfC was phrased and also the read the closer's statement at Griffin if you haven't already. Conspiracy theorist is a contentious label which requires RS with inline text attribution. Instead, it was included in Wiki voice in the first sentence of the lead - he is a conspiracy theorist - and was also used as his "occupation" in the infobox - both of which were removed.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited StarTalk (National Geographic television show), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Geographic. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I'm going to bed now (and should have gone 5 hours ago, really), but I agree with Akhilleus. Calling WUWT (the blog, not a living person) a denier blog, based on a good academic source, is not a BLP violation. And the opinion is not fringe, it's very much mainstream. I suspect you count sources (always bad), and consider sources which label the blog as "sceptic" as somehow opposed to those that mention denial. But that is a fallacy - despite the very different etymologies, there is very much overlap between "denier" and "climate sceptic". --Stephan Schulz (talk) 02:27, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-04-22T02:27:00.000Z","author":"Stephan Schulz","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Stephan_Schulz-2015-04-22T02:27:00.000Z-Akhilleus-2015-04-22T02:15:00.000Z","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2015-04-23T11:48:00.000Z-Stephan_Schulz-2015-04-22T02:27:00.000Z"]}}-->
@Akhilleus: WP:3RR doesn't apply to removal BLP violations, and I have been discussing it on the talk page. And also you should know that the burden of proof lies with the one restoring the content, not the other way around. How about trying to meet that burden instead of edit-warring.
@Stephan Schulz: "Denier" is a WP:WTW and shouldn't be used unless widely used by WP:RS. It's not widely used, in fact, it's rarely used. And I don't object to having this in the article. My objection is that it doesn't belong in the lede. It's not widely used and minority/fringe POVs don't belong in the lede. But like I said, I'm fine with it being in the body.

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Anthony Watts (blogger). Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

This has been reported to WP:BLPN and WP:ANI, but to no avail. Personally, I follow WP:BRD, but BRD discuss only works when other editors are willing to follow it. Here, we have a situation where editors are attempting (whether thru misfeasance or malfeasance I cannot say) to ram changes into the article without attempting to address policy/guidelines.

It is silly to pretend that you object to edit-warring over content on principle, because everyone who has made some version of this edit is doing so and is perfectly aware of it, and we're all basically waiting for some form of meteor strike that will end the deadlock. I request that rather than using your edit summary on a second identical revert in the middle of an edit war to chastise me for making identical reverts in the middle of an edit war (and posting policy salads that convince no one), you find something more interesting to put there so that the whole waiting process is less tedious.

Concerning this edit, you are placing your "note" in the middle of JzG's comment, implying his words above are actually yours. More problematic is that your purpose is expressly to disrupt the RfC and consensus building process. I have no problem with adding your comment to the discussion, and even chastising the RfC if you'd like, but if try to disrupt the RfC by restoring your opinions to the (ostensibly neutral) summary again, I'm going to take this to ANI. Please stop. You are welcome to participate in discussion in the same way as any other editor, but you cannot intentionally disrupt a good faith attempt to build consensus.   — Jess· Δ 23:11, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-05-30T23:11:00.000Z","author":"Mann jess","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Mann_jess-2015-05-30T23:11:00.000Z-Disrupting_the_consensus_building_process","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2015-06-01T23:26:00.000Z-Mann_jess-2015-05-30T23:11:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Jess"}}-->

The RfC presents a false trichotomy. This is obvious to anyone who's following the dicussion. If you want to take this to ANI, for being right. go right ahead.

I'm not taking you to ANI "for being right". Many editors in the discussion are undoubtedly right (and wrong), and you have all the same privilege to join their discussion and build consensus too. I'm taking you to ANI because you've made a repeated and concerted attempt to disrupt a good faith effort to collaborate and build consensus.

The following sanction now applies to you:

topic ban from Anthony Watts (blogger) and Climate change denial until September 16, 2015

You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Climate change#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. - Penwhale | dance in the air and follow his steps 23:17, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-06-26T23:17:00.000Z","author":"Penwhale","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Penwhale-2015-06-26T23:17:00.000Z-Notice_that_you_are_now_subject_to_an_arbitration_enforcement_sanction","replies":[]}}-->

-- courtesy of Mann Jess. She filed on Peter Gulutzan, too. (nearby). A twofer!

Any tips? I have some notes to file a complaint against her, but am in a real time crunch in real life, AL through the end of next week. If you have notes on her (I presume she's a she), I'd appreciate seeing them, for when I have time to put something together.

[52] You're being treated the same way you and several other editors treat people who make edits to the 9/11 articles that you don't approve of.

I cannot speak for AQFK but if I'm one of these editors you assume has done some great wrong by trying to keep CT quackery out of 9/11 related articles, then you should award us barnstars. I did want to say that AQFK seems to have had very little involvement in 9/11 articles for some time now as the CTers seem to be absent...perhaps we finally drove the idiots away? In response to one of the few comments AQFK made on 9/11 articles this year in this discussion, I did want to say that the hijackers apparently deliberately picked a Tuesday because its the slowest working day of a week for airline passengers, which meant they would have fewer people to have to subdue, as well as smaller flight crews. So mentioning Tuesday in that context might be worthwhile if its citable. Also, the period right after Labor day is also a low ticket sale time due to less travelers what with schools being back in session.--MONGO 06:30, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2015-09-16T06:30:00.000Z","author":"MONGO","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-MONGO-2015-09-16T06:30:00.000Z-Cla68-2015-09-16T02:00:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, Quest. I believe you got the negations wrong in the sentence "Does anyone here seriously disagree that edit-warring WP:BLP violations and/or contentious negative WP:BLP content is acceptable conduct?" — it says the opposite of what I think you meant. You probably want to change "acceptable" to "unacceptable". Or simplify to "Does anyone here seriously think that edit-warring WP:BLP violations and/or contentious negative WP:BLP content is acceptable conduct?" — easier for the reader.

Hello, A Quest For Knowledge.

On that same note... I'm wondering if the RfC should be better rephrased as asking users to choose between alternatives. There the extant wording, your proposal in the section above and NorthbySouthBaronof's proposal (which I like the most). If you agree, I think the way forward would be to erase (or archive) your new thread, archive the RfC and start a new one. What do you think?

You can if you want. My only concern is that some people seem to be misunderstanding my proposal. I'm only proposing removing a single word in the opening sentence. Some editors seem to think I'm arguing that Pizzagate is correct, which is not what I'm saying at all. The article can and should include debunking. I just think that that single word in the first sentence should be removed. Is there a better way to convey this?

I'll archive it, then. Would you please put your proposal in the RfC in a manner that highlights it? I ask so that others can easily see that it's a proposed alternative.
I can't speak for others, but I got that from your participation in the thread we archived. I disagree about removing the word, but my disagreement is a temporary thing (more about that here). In a few months, when interest has died down and the article doesn't get so many drive-by editors, I feel like it would be best to remove it.
That being said, as you can see from my participation in the thread, there's an alternate wording that eliminates 'debunked' which serves the same purpose. Hopefully, that one will get the most support and we can appease everyone who agrees that it's not true (the opinions of the rest don't bother me because they're against policy).

Actually, you can omit my proposal. If you're willing to revisit the issue in a few months after the fuss has died down, that's fine with me. I can wait. There's no urgent need to change this.

Your recent editing history at Talk:List of fake news websites shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Saw your comment on the fringe page, replying here as this is conversational and not administrative. I agree with your overall comment (we don't know) and that thh 1.2m-4.7m numbers are likely overestimating. But I have some big issues with that week article. "very rare/not often" seems to be a flexible term. Gun control advocates regularly describe the ~30k gun deaths per year as an epidemic. At that number is somewhat inflated by suicide. The homicide number is much lower (~12k/yr). Meanwhile, the VPC (one of the more aggressive gun control advocacy groups out there, and therefore would be erring on the side of too low) admits to 67k defensive gun uses per year. [54] (p 7, 338,700 over a 5 year period). So there are almost 2x DGUs than gun deaths, and ~5x as many DGUs as homicides, yet gun deaths are an "epidemic", and dgu are "very rare" or "not often". And thats the bottom estimates provided by a pro gun control group. Going to another gun control advocate Hemmenway's estimate at 80k and "not often" is even more of a stretch, let alone anywhere approaching the high estimates.

Hello, A Quest For Knowledge.

I've seen you editing recently and you seem knowledgeable about Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; currently Wikipedia needs experienced users at this task. (After gaining the flag, patrolling is not mandatory. One can do it at their convenience). But kindly read the tutorial before making your decision.

Hi. I archived after @Geogene: replied because the section is from a single purpose account repeating a stale and debunked bit of fake news that's previously been aired in detail. I'm not going to archive it again, but it would be disappointing to see editors waste their time and effort validating this nonsense that we all know is never going to help improve the article.

Re: [55]

I don't know how else to put it. There was an RfC. This was the consensus. Stop edit warring.

Here is the RfC.

Here is the full text of closing admins comments:

"Closing this discussion as per a request at Wikipedia:Requests for closure; there have been no comments in a week. The consensus here, broadly, is that yes, the phrase "Polish death camp" should be described as an inaccurate term - a "misnomer" - in the lede, with further details in the body of the article. However, a number of the contributors saying "yes" to Staszek Lem's question have suggested that while it is appropriate to specify that the term is incorrect in the lede, an alternative term to "misnomer" could be used, for the sake of clarity ("misrepresentation" is suggested by quite a few). That's not a question that was posed by this RFC, and a simple follow up RFC giving a binary choice between "misnomer" and "misrepresentation" may be warranted; I leave that up to the article editors."

I've emphasized the relevant part.

If you want to reopen the discussion or something you have that right (but really, isn't there better things to waste people's time with on Wikipedia?).

But please self-revert because your edit directly violates consensus.Volunteer Marek (talk) 20:25, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-04-22T20:25:00.000Z","author":"Volunteer Marek","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Volunteer_Marek-2018-04-22T20:25:00.000Z-Misnomer","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2018-04-22T20:30:00.000Z-Volunteer_Marek-2018-04-22T20:25:00.000Z"]}}-->

It fails verification:

It really doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, but it did. And you know that invoking "community consensus overrides local consensus" is right up there with "I was just reverting vandalism" as a lame excuse for edit warring.

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Eastern Europe, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

I should add, that it seems you were topic banned previously on a different topic PRECISELY for not respecting/disrupting the RfC process.

I saw an obvious problem and fixed it. Instead of thanking me, you make empty threats on my talk page. And no, I have never been topic-banned for not respecting/disrupting the RfC process. (At least if I was, I don't recall it.) In any case, Wikipedia is not a WP:BATTLEGROUND. Editors are expected to be welcoming and work together to improve articles in an atmosphere of mutual respect, not antagonism.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

I am posting this on your talkpage out of an abundance of caution solely because you recently edited Talk:Sarah Jeong and, as the message says, not suggesting any policy violation by you. (I realize that as an experienced editor you probably know all this).

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on White privilege. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. - FlightTime (open channel) 17:54, 21 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-10-21T17:54:00.000Z","author":"FlightTime","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-FlightTime-2018-10-21T17:54:00.000Z-October_2018","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-2018-10-21T17:57:00.000Z-FlightTime-2018-10-21T17:54:00.000Z"]}}-->

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Dear (A?) Quest For Knowledge,

I take the liberty to contact you, I am a doctoral student in Political Science at the University of Paris 1 and my work focuses on the history of conspiracy theories, on which I have already published a few scientific articles and I am now preparing a book. I have been interviewing conspiracists and truthers, their critics and opponents for several years, working particularly on the French association ReOpen911 and the question of 9/11, as a now "historical" case of conspiracy...And obviously wikipedia has been a rather major theater of discussions/criticisms on the subject.

Looking at the related conspiracy pages' statistics, I realized that you have worked for long on these issues on wikipedia, hence my message and a small request: I would really appreciate if you can share bits of this "experience" with me in an interview.

All the best

Hello - my name is Susan Gerbic (Sgerbic) and I'm writing to you because at some point you joined Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism. This might have been months ago - or even years ago. With the best of intentions the project was created years ago, and sadly like many WikiProjects has started to go dormant. A group of us are attempting to revitalize the Skepticism project, already we have begun to clean up the main page and I've just redone the participant page. No one is in charge of this project, it is member directed, which might have been the reason it almost went dormant. We are attempting to bring back conversations on the talk page and have two subprojects as well, in the hopes that it might spark involvement and a way of getting to know each other better. One was created several years ago but is very well organized and a lot of progress was made, Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skeptical organisations in Europe. The other I created a couple weeks ago, it is very simple and has a silly name Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Skepticism Stub Sub-Project Project (SSSPP). This sub-project runs from March 1 to June 1, 2022. We are attempting to rewrite skepticism stubs and add them to this list. As you can see we have already made progress.

The reason I'm writing to you now is because we would love to have you come back to the project and become involved, either by working on one of the sub-projects, proposing your own (and managing it), or just hanging out on the talk page getting to know the other editors and maybe donate some of your wisdom to some of the conversations. As I said, no one is in charge, so if you have something in mind you would like to see done, please suggest it on the talk page and hopefully others will agree. Please add the project to your watchlist, update your personal user page showing you are a proud member of WikiProject Skepticism. And DIVE in, this is what the work list looks like [62] frightening at first glance, but we have already started chipping away at it.

The Wikipedia:WikiProject Skepticism/Participants page has gone though a giant change - you may want to update your information. And of course if this project no longer interests you, please remove your name from the participant list, we would hate to see you go, but completely understand.

Thank you for your time, I hope to edit with you in the future.Sgerbic (talk) 06:49, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-03-17T06:49:00.000Z","author":"Sgerbic","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sgerbic-2022-03-17T06:49:00.000Z-Rejuvenate_WikiProject_Skepticism","replies":[]}}-->

Dear @A Quest For Knowledge,

Thank you for your statement. I intend to learn and gain knowledge and am eager to do so :) Scientelensia (talk) 13:44, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231017134400","author":"Scientelensia","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Scientelensia-20231017134400-Scientelensia","replies":["c-A_Quest_For_Knowledge-20231020110200-Scientelensia-20231017134400"]}}-->

@Scientelensia: Please allow me put it directly. You can't go around accusing editor's of bias. Ever. Even if you think it's true, even if you think you know it's true, you just can't do it. Keep thoughts like that to yourself. If someone makes an edit you disagree with, try to address what you think is wrong with the edit, not what you think is wrong with the editor.
One of the key guidelines that Wikipedia has is assume good faith. Basically it means that you should assume that other editors aren't intentionally making bad or biased edits.
Editing Wikipedia on contentious topics is a time-consuming, difficult thing to do. I gave up on this years ago. But if you do want to edit articles where there are disputes, you have to follow the dispute resolution process. We have a variety of ways to address disputes. Discussing the article on the article talk page is one of the first steps. Other ways include using WP:RFCs or the many dispute resolutions noticeboards.
I hope this helps.

It does, thank you. I will absorb the knowledge and learn from it.

Hello! This is User:Luiysia (IRL name is Kelly). My main interests are fashion, music, literature, and history. I am fairly new to Wikipedia editing and I found that there has been very little activity from the Chicago Wikipedia user group since 2020.

I'd like to host a casual meetup in Chicago to celebrate Wikidata Day on Saturday, October 26.

Proposed location is Engine Coffee in the Wicker Park/West Town area, at 11AM.

Here is the official meetup page, where you can add yourself as an attendee.

(If you would prefer not to see messages like this, go ahead and take yourself off this list.)

Hope to see you all there!

Thanks for the invitation. I live in suburbs and rarely go into the city anymore. There's also a Battlestar Galactica Convention that same day that I already bought tickets for.

Hello! This is User:Luiysia again. At the last meetup, people expressed interest in having a Wikipedia meetup bi-monthly (that is, every other month). So, here's our December meetup!

The meetup will start at The Bourgeois Pig, in the Lincoln Park neighborhood, at 11 AM.

Here is the official meetup page, where you can add yourself as an attendee. See you soon!
