Manoeuvre load factor in a spin
Thanks for taking an interest in our article Spin (aerodynamics). One of your changes added the maximum load factor specified in airworthiness design standards as normal acceleration in metres per second squared. The design standards only specify load factor as a multiple of g; never as a normal acceleration so I reverted your addition. Keep up the good work! Dolphin ( t ) 22:01, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Rocket page moves
Please do not make moves you claim are per WP:MOSCAPS to pages that are at the official, proper-noun designation. These weren't simple descriptions. Thanks - The Bushranger One ping only 02:42, 6 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I concur. Also, while you're welcome to disagree, it best that you propose the moves through the WP:RM discussion process. BilCat (talk) 03:01, 6 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I apologise for all this moves. I agree that these weren't simple descriptions. It's pretty obvious. Now someone should explain this to our comrade WP:RM exists for a reason and Manual of Style isn't justification for everything. Methinks it's not right for me to blame another editor, but it was his move of 5-Inch Forward Firing Aircraft Rocket to "5-inch forward firing aircraft rocket" that convinced me that same "rule" applies to other articles about rockets. Now I see that MOSCAPS is nothing in comparison with Common Name, common sense and actual names of article subjects. Thanks for reverting mine misdeeds. Arado Ar 196 (talk) 06:14, 6 January 2022 (UTC)


 * "Methinks it's not right for me to blame another editor...[but I will, anyhow]..." A couple of your moves were rightly reverted as they were weapon systems, the other reverts, and the revert of my move, were in error but, given the dearth of pageviews, it's nothing. Primergrey (talk) 18:04, 6 January 2022 (UTC)


 * "the other reverts, and the revert of my move, were in error [but I will not bother to prove that]". Can you prove that "5-Inch Forward Firing Aircraft Rocket" isn't official designation of that rocket and isn't its common name, but just the description? I guess it also counts as weapon system. Mine apologies for blaming you, but sometimes it's better to be honest and clearly explain the reason of your actions, than to be polite. I also hope that next time you won't move pages without discussion. Good luck at WP:RM! Arado Ar 196 (talk) 19:03, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Here's the thing; if an article could begin "The 5-Inch Forward Firirng Aircraft Rocket is a five-inch forward firing aircraft rocket...", which it could, then it is descriptive. Primergrey (talk) 21:59, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You're pretty right that it's descriptive. This rocket was really rocket-propelled weapon, was fired forward and had the warhead with 127 mm diameter (5 inches in obsolete units). But descriptive designations was common for American military equipment of that era. There are a lot of examples, like "Heavy Tank M6" ("heavy" describes its weight, "tank" describes it as tracked armored fighting vehicle and only M6 designates it as "Model Sixth"). But such descriptive designations are still official designations, not descriptive names invented by pilots, soldiers, historians or someone else. Yes, they're very different from modern designations, like "Hydra 70" (agressive nickname+calibre) or "9M14 Malyutka" (GRAU index+cute nickname). But as designations they still need to be capitalised as in sources. Of course, this is the free encyclopaedia and you live in a free country, so you have your right to disagree. I shan't continue this discussion though, I'd rather go drink some tea and read some GL manga. Have a nice day, comrade! Arado Ar 196 (talk) 09:20, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Restored biased language?!?!?
Good day, sir(?),

You recently reverted an edit to a biased version on the article "Child discipline". The biased version (as of current) implies that all people see "Hot saucing" as abuse, when this is simply not true (and I can vouch for this). An edit was recently made that was infinitely more neutral, yet was reverted to the prior, biased version. Do you care to explain such a bizarre revert? Wikipedia's policies on neutrality can be found here. Cheers! Kehkou (talk) 15:38, 15 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Well, I may be wrong, but when there's practice of inflicting pain and suffering to discipline somebody, we don't need over 9000 sources to call it 'torture' or 'abuse'. Currently, there are only two sources advocating for the practice in question: Lisa Whelchel with her book and some nuts from Today's Christian Woman magazine. So it's more like abuse with some advocates than "practice (sometimes seen as abusive)". But enough with that, your version is definitely more neutral than the one I reverted. Good job, buddy. Arado Ar 196 (C✙T) 16:29, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Neutral information is important
The article is full of elements that could be called biased, incl. the fact it cites many people who have strong political opinions on the matter. Wikipedia should be about providing broad enough and factual take on all topics. It should be neutral.

I would challenge you to identify what was NOT neutral about my chapter? The chapter included the notion that "gender identity ideology" is being critized by MANY people, including feminists and top scholars. It is a fact. I also offered a link for my claim that top-level doctors critize the erasure of the word "womanhood".

Can you point out how the chapter should be modified instead of removed? I hope that it will be put back, because it is factual :)

Waiting for your answer 194.157.43.230 (talk) 09:45, 23 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Well, you're talking about anti-gender movement article, right? You see, buddy, it's an article about a rather fringe right-wing movement, so nothing strange that it slightly biased against its subject, that's example of WP:GOODBIAS. Now, let's look at your edits to the article. Some say that weasels are very cute, but it was claimed by critics that WP:WEASEL words aren't really helpful for writing so called neutral article. Many editors say that claims about what people say, think, feel, or believe, and what has been shown, demonstrated, or proved should be clearly attributed, though it was disproven by many scholars . Well, you also added a reference to back your addition, but what's it? It's opinion piece from political newspaper. Wow, good choice, that's exactly what you need to outweigh all that references stating that anti-gender movement is just conspiracy theory fueled by moral panic and foreign disinformation campaigns~
 * So no, your addition to lead section can't be put back even reworded, since it's clear case of POV pushing aimed to give some degree of legitimacy and weigh to movement claims and discredit its critics. Maybe you can add some of that "top scholars" to Central figures section. With names and sources, of course. If you disagree with me, you are free to bring your issue with article neutrality to talk page of that article or to WP:NPOVN, but I'm not sure that someone will agree with you. Good luck, buddy!

Do you have a source for the ”russian disinformation”
Do you have source that Giorgia Meloni and Jaroslaw Kazynski are influenced by russian disinfo. Or is it far more likely that they are just catholic reactionaries. 109.240.29.132 (talk) 20:28, 21 August 2022 (UTC)


 * I haven't. But you also have no source that Catholic (pseudo)religious reactionaries are completely not influenced by it. The article already have sources both about disinfo (like that one ) and about Vatican's role (like that ), you have sources saying that specific politicians are Catholic reactionaries. But we can't do source alchemy and make conclusion that Catholics aren't influenced at all.

So you can use Kurdish propaganda but no Turkish

There is no Neo-Ottoman praise on the site, secondly, the site does not claim that the entire city is made up of Turks, it mentions the existence of many other ethnic groups such as Zazas and Kurds, even Assyrians and Armenians, but it is true that the majority of the province is Turkish.

if you are so anti-propaganda, delete the part based on separatist Kurdish propaganda that "the majority of the province is Kurdish" Burtigin (talk) 11:48, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Anna Eskamani's wikipedia page
Hi,

I encourage you to review the recent history of Anna Eskamani's page and note how biased many of the sections are written. It's bad enough that wikipedia has been keeping a warning on the page that it may not be trustworthy information as a result.

I should also note that it is very extraordinary for a single state house representative to have such a lengthy wikipedia -- let alone one who has only served 2 terms. Considering how short other more tenured members of the FL's wikis are (such as Toby Overdorf, Nicholas Duran, or Tracie Davis), I find it hard to believe that this is due to the supposedly long list of legislation that the representative has championed, and likely more an attempt to subversively campaign to readers on through what they are led to believe is a neutral source. 131.226.37.68 (talk) 19:30, 9 September 2022 (UTC)


 * If you think that articles about other politicians from Florida are too short, than go and fix it. Improve 'em.
 * Also, length of articles depends on amount of coverage of subject in reliable sources. It's not the fault of Wikipedia that some people get more media attention that others. But when article about Democrat happens to be longer than about Republican, it's, of course, the result of secret plot of Liberal Fascists, hired directly by Joe Biden, hiding in US embassy in Italy and editing using military satellites. Zero doubts about that. a! rado (C✙T) 20:04, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Fair enough however you didn't address the point I made about Wikipedia putting warning on this that a representative's page is likely influenced by a close associate of hers and may not be neutral 131.226.37.68 (talk) 20:07, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Russia is burning.

Between "hate speech" and death, I think I'd prefer the former. Ukrainians are dying every day, at the hands of the Russian military. Some Russians think it's unfair that they receive hate speech. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 18:11, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * My two first ideas for reply were:
 * Some parody of your bullshit like "Palestinians/Cops are dying every day, but some Jews/African-Americans still get triggered by K-word/N-word"
 * Explanation that it's bad to equate some ethnical, racial or social groups with actions of some members of those groups.
 * But screw this, idea #1 is too POINTy, idea #2 will fall on deaf ears, so I'll just invite you to go ahead and call me a "Russian asshole", like Jake in HM2. Maybe you can also beat me a bit with lead pipe? I wouldn't resist, I swear, just do it in a snake mask, for more kinks.

 * Verbose response --> Attaching oneself to an ethnic/national identity is simultaneously a birth-right and a choice. You were born Russian, but you also choose to identify as Russian. Indeed, I see on your user page that you identify as a member of the human race. If that is true, then why are you so offended when bad things are said about Russia? Indeed, it is easy to tell the difference between a global citizen and a nationalist by the degree that they are offended by criticism of their home country. If you are offended by the implication that Russia is a bellicose state, then you must identify rather strongly with the Russian national identity. And that's completely on you. You don't have to identify as Russian. You can denounce the Russian identity, if you want. If you are a very patriotic Russian, you can even support the democratization movement in Russia and advocate for the removal of Vladimir Putin. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 19:08, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
 * ^I am not opposed to "Russian people" as a whole (although some of my previous language may have been ambiguous on this point). I am opposed to the Russian Federation and everything that it stands for. I support a Free Russia that can participate in the global community on a respectable level.

Disruptive user
Hello Arado Ar 196, I hope everything is okay. I just wanted to let you know a disruptive user you have previously dealt and warned in the past and so has others for his disruptive editing: I'm currently having problems with him and I have also warned him  but he decided to remove it and not listen. He falsely accused that I didn't cite any sources when you can clearly look through my revision that I have added more than three references and he decides to remove them all. I came to update the population estimation from 2014 to 2022 and added other references not involving the population. The guy didn't bother speaking to me on talk page or reviewing the references. He just wants to edit war and have everything his way. Ayaltimo 06:29, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

"we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view." Are you insane??? Wikipedia is everything but written from a neutral point of view. For Wikipedia a neutral point of view means entirely written from a liberal point of view that is aggressively anti-conservative.

 * Ara ara, looks like you have finally discovered your talk page. Good work!
 * Firstly, what you quoted is standard templated message (Template:uw-npov1). So even if I'm completely insane psychopath with, you know, chainsaw and scary mask, I'm not the author of template, so take your questions about mental health elsewhere.
 * Secondly, Wikipedia really has policy about neutral point of view, see WP:NPOV. And whining about nonexistant "liberal bias" is really common mistake among misguided right-wingers trying to edit here. As common as calling everyone "racists" and "MAGAs" for misguided left-wingers trying the same. For a person with strong views, everything that doesn't comply with their limited worldview is biased against them.
 * Thirdly, I'm not offended by your words, 'cause I generally don't care about random mean people on the Internet, but you need to review WP:NPA policy. Calling other editors "losers" isn't okay, whether they care or not.

Alex Epstein Sourcing
Hello, The source being used to smear Alex Epstein as a "climate denier" in the first sentence is against Wikipedia's policy of using Tabloid Journalism.

Hellriegel 1915 "sourcing"
Hello! I wanted to discuss the reversion to the edits made to the Hellriegel 1915 page, mostly because I'm not certain exactly how to provide a source for this.

My inclination to edit the article was based on the analysis of Jonathan Ferguson in the video seen here: "Firearms Expert Reacts to Battlefield 1's Guns". This is not exactly what most historians would consider a proper source, hence my hesitation to link it, but Ferguson himself is an authoritative source, being a published and experienced firearms historian, and the question in question is what I'd call a matter of opinion anyway -- namely, what should the Hellriegel be defined as?

This is complicated since no physical examples of it survive, only photographs, and it was never used in combat. Generally, it's considered a submachine gun, due to being a fully-automatic pistol-caliber weapon. However, Ferguson argues that it would be better considered a light machine gun, since that would be how its designers envisioned its role when developing it -- a squad support weapon akin to the BAR or the Chauchat. The existing text of the article and that paragraph in particular mentions this already, but somewhat obliquely -- I simply intended to edit the paragraph to make it more explicit and elaborated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.215.217.26 (talk) 20:23, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * If Ferguson is an expert, then, I guess, you can cite his Youtube video (using Template:Cite web). WP:SPS says that "self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications". a! rado🦈 (C✙T) 21:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Inflammatory userbox
Hi, Arado. To enforce the userpage and userbox guidelines, I have removed from your userpage a userbox that violated WP:POLEMIC in the former (Polemical statements unrelated to Wikipedia, or statements attacking or vilifying groups of editors, persons, or other entities) and WP:UBCR in the latter (Userboxes must not be inflammatory or substantially divisive; Wikipedia is not an appropriate place for ... Opinion pieces, particularly on current affairs or politics), as well as. The community has generally been okay with userboxen that express generalized support for violent resistance (like the one you already have), which I imagine would extend to a userbox expressing generalized support for assassination as a political tool; but an incendiary statement in the context of one specific assassination—a recent one at that—is too far.

I noticed that you have posted comments to the page Lider-class destroyer in a language other than English. At the English-language Wikipedia, we try to use English for all comments. Posting all comments in English makes it easier for other editors to join the conversation and help you. If you cannot avoid using another language, then please provide a translation into English, if you can. If you cannot provide a translation, please go to the list of Wikipedias, look in the list for a Wikipedia that is in your language, and edit there instead of here. For more details, see Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines. Thank you. Comrade a! rado🇷🇺 (C🪆T) 08:57, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Arado Ar 196. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions&#32;to Adolf Hitler have been undone because they did not appear to use the name and gendered words that match with the subject's most recent reliably published gender identity. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks! a! rado🦈 (C✙T) 11:26, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you use names and gendered words in a manner incompatible with the subject's latest published gender identity again, as you did at Aleksandr Pokryshkin, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. a! rado🦈 (C✙T) 06:53, 26 June 2023 (UTC)

Threads need to remain on ANI at least 24 hours after being closed
Hi, thanks for thinking of keeping ANI tidier, However, threads need to remain there at least 24 hours after being closed/resolved, so that all persons in all timezones and with all sleep/wake/work patterns have a chance to view the close.

To make sure you are not archiving a thread prematurely, before you start, Google utc military time, click the first result, and subtract one day from that time and date. Then make sure you do not archive any thread that was not closed till after that time and date.

Thank you, Softlavender (talk) 23:11, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Roger that, thanks for heads up! I have deployed a lot of useragent-spoofing and finally forced that script to display time difference in UTC. So now, when it says "a day ago", it's safe to archive. (At least I hope it works like this) a! rado🦈 (C✙T) 09:47, 22 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I would not use "a day ago" as a sufficiently precise measurement (it's usually a very imprecise algorithm for those things), so please just check the actual time as I instructed, or make sure the display says at least two days ago. Remember, 24 hours is the bare minimum a thread should stay up after being closed. Thanks, Softlavender (talk) 08:08, 23 April 2023 (UTC)

Question from Lava Jernam (17:56, 18 August 2023)
Hello, Wikipedia says that you're my mentor and that I can ask you things. so I'm gonna ask, how i can revert an vandalism/bad edit on wiki? --Lava Jernam (talk) 17:56, 18 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Lava Jernam, reverting is easy: just use "undo" button (see wp:undo for more details). If you want more automation, you can install tools like WP:TWINKLE or WP:UV. They add a lot of buttons for quick and easy reverting edits, reporting vandals, requesting wp:revision deletion and stuff like that. a! rado – ばか (C✙T) 18:13, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

What is with your indiscriminate removal of links to Discord or WP:Discord?
I noticed that you have removed links to Discord or WP:Discord? Why so? – robertsky (talk) 06:41, 24 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Not in reply to Robert, but for posterity sake, Arado was banned from the Wikimedia Community Discord due to posting inappropriate images of yuri on the server. With the removal of the links and this userpage edit, it can be assumed the reason was because of this ban. I will let @Ferret explain the reasoning of said ban as they were the one who did it, although I would like to add as a user and as a fan of yuri, this outburst is inappropriate and will only cause further issues rather than solve them. 123Writer talk 09:08, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * For the context, last three pictures containing 2 girls (that excludes pictures of sole foxgirls, sent to foxtopic):
 * pixivDiscord CDN - two female military officers. One is Jungwi from ROKMC, other, well, I suck at uniform identification. That picture can be considered over the top, since they are definetely going to have rather serious strategical briefing, yes? Well, for some reason it wasn't the picture I was banned for (and techically it's not explicit).
 * - Asuka Langley kissing Rei Ayanami by surprise. No nudity. Kiss in question is somewhere between "wishing homie goodnight" and "my intentions to move with you to Taiwan are somewhat serious". Only concern here is that surprise-kissing is a bit non-consensual.
 * - two girls, both fully clothed in 19th century style military uniform. One holds other on hands. No nudity (except for that parts of legs between high boots and skirt, but that's acceptable in most places since, well, last half of 20th century, right?).
 * So, what we have here? 2 officer ladies looking eyes to eyes a bit too passionately, mecha pilots kissing a bit too deep, and literally Andou holding literal Oshida in her literal hands.
 * So, where such pictures can be considered inapropriate? Something like that:
 * Catholic abbey (for monks, not nuns)
 * Southern Baptist church
 * Some areas of Poland
 * surprisingly, Wikimedia Community Discord.
 * Are you folks proud of yourselves?
 * I'm done with all those Wikipedia shit and generally with "interaction with other people on the Internets" shit. I don't care about opinions of anyone of you. May God have mercy for you all. Nh283721 (talk) 11:30, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Considering the Discord server has LGBT+ admins, comparing it to traditionally-seen homophobic organizations is a bit of a reach. 123Writer talk 11:38, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Regardless, whatever happened in the server does not excuse your non-constructive edits here on Wikipedia. It appears that all of your related edits have been reverted, rightly so. – robertsky (talk) 12:32, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * This user has set a self-imposed block until 2420 (see ), so I don't think there is much else to be done here. I see that is their alternate account, so I'll say here that if you continue this disruptive behavior through that (or any other) account, you'll likely be indeffed for WP:NOTHERE. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 12:46, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * You weren't banned for the picture(s). You were banned for how you reacted and attacked moderators after you were asked to stop posting images that crossed a line of sexualization, including undergarments being visible. It doesn't matter whether you believe that's appropriate or not, you were asked to stop, which should have been simple enough to do. The Discord server has rules to avoid oversexualization of topics, and posting such images repeatedly in offtopic spaces is beyond the purpose of the server. It's not your picture that got you banned: It was your reaction. Your behavior since has only reaffirmed that this was the correct decision. -- ferret (talk) 14:05, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi there. If this behavior continues, I will indef block you for disruption, personal attacks and harassment. I don't think anything more needs said. -- ferret (talk) 13:57, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

 * @Ferret, thank you. You have set me free from my worst habit: helping out some random folks on the Internet to build some shitty encyclopedia. Those random folks who don't care about you until you stay useful and then kick you out for not licking their asses.
 * I'm absolutely serious now: I'm really grateful to you all. Societal rejection is one of the best methods for character building of a warrior. Bravery and chivalry are cool, but being heartbroken and dead inside beats them all.
 * I'm going to find some really fulfilling hobby. Something that will put my true personality to really good use. If my "career" as "editor" proves something, then it's: "mad dog of war can edit Wikipedia, but not for long". Negative results are also useful, right?
 * Anyway, thanks again. We both did it. May God continue to have patience for us all. Over and out. a! rado – ばか (C✙T) 05:23, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
