An article you recently created, Dovydas Giedraitis, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG, neither does routine sports coverage.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969TT me12:25, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Gerda Arendt: Hi, it is an interesting information I was not familiar with before. Thanks. However, I have not participated in discussions about such infoboxes problematism, so I don't have strong opinion regarding this question. -- Pofka (talk) 17:04, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've recently done some work editing Gediminas to make it more WP:NPOV (mostly getting rid of MOS:PUFFERY. In fact, I think the article may be sufficiently NPOV enough by now. If possible, can I remove the NPOV template from the article? If not, are there any additional edits I need to make to make the article more NPOV?
Below are the diffs of the revisions I made:
[1][2]
And here are the diffs of the subsequent revisions that occurred after I made the edits:
[3][4]
I decided to notify you as although I have already posted in Talk:Gediminas and Wikipedia:WikiProject Lithuania about this, as I haven't been getting responses to my questions. I want to reach a WP:CONSENSUS before I remove the NPOV dispute template on the article. I thought you might be a good person to reach out regarding this topic as you have far more editing experience than me (I only joined a week ago) and you seem familiar with the topic at hand judging from your contribs.
As you are no doubt aware, I am the admin who sanctioned Marcelus. I wish to clarify first that the sanction was explicitly for edit warring and not for any other conduct, and second that he is at liberty to edit the topic within the bounds of his restriction. There is no need for you to bring his sanction up in unrelated discussions. In fact doing so, and this comment in particular, are suggestive of a battleground mentality. Marcelus has explicitly asked for no sanctions against you so I don't intend to take this any further but please focus more on content and less on contributors. Thank you, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts?20:10, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You’re welcome. Btw, would you mind if I joined WikiProject Lithuania? I have virtually no knowledge about Lithuania but found that a lot of Lithuania-related articles seriously need copyediting, cleanup or disambiguation (well, I’m already in the Guild of Copy Editors and WikiProject Disambiguation). Also, I think I could act as a sort of “vandalism patroller” for the wikiproject.
Oh, and by the way if you want to know how I ended up finding out that all these Lithuania related articles need C/E, you can look at this user subpage. [5]
@Shadow of the Starlit Sky: Hi, if you want to contribute to Lithuania-related articles I see no reasons why you couldn't join WikiProject Lithuania. There are plenty of English language sources about Lithuania as well, so knowledge of Lithuanian language is not mandatory. -- Pofka (talk) 09:51, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Pofka IMO that article needs copy editing more than anything. LOTS of grammar issues and awkward phrasings. Also, there might be some unencyclopedic info/cruft too…. Either way, it seriously needs improvement. Besides, it’s even more important to improve it because it is a designated level 5 vital article- I never saw a vital article in such horrible conditions. So I’m working on copy editing it section by section as of now. -- Shadowof theStarlit Sky12:15, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
As a result of this AE thread, you are now subject to a one-way interaction ban with Marcelus. You may not refer to him, address him, comment about him, revert his edits, or interact with him in any other way, anywhere on Wikipedia. You may not report Marcelus to noticeboards and you may not comment on any noticeboard discussion concerning him. This does not prohibit you from commenting in the same talk page discussion as Marcelus provided you do not interact directly with him. No such restriction will apply to Marcelus but I will ask him to behave, as a courtesy, as though it did.
Further, you should consider this a final warning. There was not a consensus amongst admins for a topic ban this time but if there are any further concerns about your conduct in the Eastern Europe topic area, your previous topic ban will almost certainly be reinstated. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts?09:57, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
On 23 April 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Gediminas' Cap, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that during the inaugurations of Lithuanian monarchs, Gediminas' Cap(depicted) was placed on the monarch's head by the bishop of Vilnius? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Gediminas' Cap. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Gediminas' Cap), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
@Radom1967 I have responded to this issue on my Talk page. I will try to be more careful when using JavaScript Wiki Browser in the future.... I am new to using it. Sorry if I caused any inconviniences while doing this.
Hello! Voting in the 2023 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 11 December 2023. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
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. Barkeep49 (talk) 18:47, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Barkeep49: So I, being recognized as one of the finest editors and content creators in this topic (only two editors were recognized like that), received a WP:TBAN for explaining my opinion in a discussion by also providing WP:RS-class sources backing such an opinion? I did not recently performed any edits in Wikipedia's articles of this topic which would be questionable and there was absolutely no such evidence provided from outside the discussion (e.g. malicious differences in articles performed by me). Do you prefer a one-opinion discussion or a discussion with multiple opinions? Was it simply imposed for disagreeing with some editors in a discussion and explaining a different opinion than theirs there? Currently, this sanction prohibits me to edit articles in this topic, but recently there was absolutely no violations of Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines by me while editing articles in this topic (per provided evidence in enforcement request). So with this sanction it is expected to protect articles in this topic from a user (me) who did not performed any malicious edits while editing such articles in this topic? So why exactly such sanction is necessary if recently there was no malicious edits in articles of this topic by me? Can you please explain further this sanction and why it was imposed without any violations of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines in articles of this topic? -- Pofka (talk) 14:25, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Multiple arbitrators saw your participation as disruptive and unlikely to contribute positively in the topic area after having mutliple editors, who don't always agree with each other, express concern as well. Rather than reimposing the full Poland/Lithuania topic ban you'd recently had, we just did it for Lithuania. Barkeep49 (talk) 18:56, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Barkeep49: How such preconceived conclusions as "unlikely to contribute positively in the topic" (despite the fact that I'm one of two best editors in "Lithuania" topic, the other one is administrator Renata3) can be reached when recently there are absolutely no such examples in my edit history of this topic's articles? Why I was accused and sanctioned that I will do something when I didn't and I'm not planning to? So positively recognized content creators with 13 years of experience and 20000+ edits are now getting quick broadly construed TBANs purely on opinion that something likely / unlikely will happen before it actually happened? How is this WP:NPOV? If this undefined broadly construed TBAN in all "Lithuania" topic articles will remain without evidence that I actually done something wrong in Wikipedia articles of this topic per Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines, I'm quitting English Wikipedia right away and there really is no difference in sanctioning extent as 99% I am here for creating quality content about Lithuania.
Even though per provided evidence I haven't done anything wrong in articles related with Jews in Lithuania, would you/committee at least consider narrowing the TBAN sanction to topic "anything related with Jews in Lithuania" instead of "Lithuania, broadly construed" if you/committee consider that I will do something wrong in such Lithuania-related articles (based just on discussion)? Why I cannot continue to write such content as listed here: User:Pofka#Finest examples of my work (e.g. about Lithuanian cities architecture, Lithuanian basketball teams/clubs, etc.)? Otherwise, as I already mentioned, I will quit English Wikipedia completely. -- Pofka (talk) 20:14, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, amateur wikipedian here. I am also of the opinion that Pofka's ban should be reconsidered from a Lithuania to mabye a WW2 topic ban, since most of his high-quality work took place in the area of Lithuania and this is his greatest area of expertise. This is proven by the official wikipedia recognition of beeing a best content creator in the Lithuania topic.
A ban from the topic of Lithuania may equals like a global perma ban to him, which he certainly didnt deserve.
@Barkeep49 please, if you can do any exceptions for the ban, please do it. For example, I dont see how Pofka could be disruptive in non-controversial topics when writing about Lithuanian rivers or food.
His finest editor status has not been considered in the committee discussion, which is outrageous to me.
The reason that their finest work wasn't considered is because Pofka didn't participate in the sanction discussion. If Pofka would like to make an appeal to create some space to edit things like rivers or food they can. Barkeep49 (talk) 14:31, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for everything that you do. I have come across a few of your works and edits, as well as some of your discussions - mostly relating to the history of Lithuania, and the origin of many important misconceptions.
In some of your recent topics I see that you've gotten discouraged and perhaps even quit adding onto the amazing work that you've accomplished. I hope you can come back in due time, as wikipedia is surely better with you in it, than without.
Thank you for your constant truthful statements, and the mountains of well-explained, and well-researched work that you've managed to make accesible to many people, from many different countries over the many years that you've been active.
Pofka please check if you can ask for a repeat of the committee discussion. I have read the committee discussion and your status as top contributor was not even mentioned. It was just a lemming train of people saying "ban him". Only because you questioned the continuity of Lithuanias existence during WW2.IN A DISCUSSION.
Maybe the topic ban can be taken back or at least altered if the people in the committee take into consideration what you already contributed.
@MKW100: Hello, yes, the sanction was applied to me when I expressed my opinion in a discussion, but not for making any confirmed malicious changes in articles related with this sanction and topic. I have tried to ask Barkeep49 about narrowing the sanction (above), but received no response. Currently, I have almost completely left Wikipedia and plan to leave completely in the near future due to this situation. Additional free time in life after years of editing Wikipedia is a benefit as well. :) Anyway, thanks for your positive words and support. :) -- Pofka (talk) 17:12, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking just for myself, I saw this appeal as being reasonable under WP:ROPE-grounds, as was your last TBAN appeal. I'd caution you that misconduct in the broader Lithuania topic area is likely to result in either a broad TBAN or a site block. I hope it doesn't come to that, and I wish you all the best in negotiating your narrower topic ban. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 15:01, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Kowal2701: Hi, I am mostly interested in editing Lithuania-related content, therefore it depends how much edits about oral tradition will be related with Lithuania. I am not an expert in mythology, however I am able to analyze extensive English and Lithuanian languages sources. Best regards, -- Pofka (talk) 21:00, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That’s okay, you can stick to what interests you, you just might find some of the resources useful. The page is at WP:WikiProject Anthropology/Oral tradition taskforce, it’s still very nascent so a lot of the resources are yet to be made. I’d like to have a category that sorts all of the tagged articles by WP country tags but I don’t know the technical side of it Kowal2701 (talk) 21:09, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
