Trouted (incorrectly, for reverting COI on KWIC)
You have been trouted for: YOUR REASON HERE Bdweeja (talk) 11:29, 16 January 2024 (UTC) Delay section is very old & the informations are incorrect


 * Hello. First, please read conflict of interest and paid editing for information on required formal disclosures. You must disclose your relationship with this development.
 * The information contained is supported by reliable sources. Even if the information is old, it is still correct, as it covers the history of the project, not the current state. Wikipedia articles contain all information found in reliable sources, good or bad. If there is a reason based in Wikipedia policy to remove something, it should be discussed on the Talk:Kolkata West International City.

 * The information which are given on the delay & opposition section in Kolkata west International city’s Wikipedia page are wrong & old.I’m a current employee of this organisation that’s why want to make the changes. Bdweeja (talk) 06:58, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * As an employee of the company, you are prohibited from editing the article. Your only avenue is to propose changes on the Talk page, so that a non-connected editor can implement or decline. Also you must first declare your paid status. See WP:PAID. David notMD (talk) 09:43, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

Wrong reason?
You recently reverted an IP's edit with summary 'Rv addition of a racial slur'. But the actress seems to really have played the role as per the article. Maybe reversion is still valid for 'unconstructive edit', but not for racial slur? Exclusive Editor  Notify Me! 14:43, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Trouted (incorrectly, for reverting COI content removal on SETS)
You have been trouted for: YOUR REASON HERE The Sydney Electric Train Society page needs to be cleaned of the current defamatory content against this organisation. You are restoring a page containing many falsehoods and politically motivated hate content against SETS. I suspect its being written by members or associates of a rival rail preservation group that split of SETS in 1997 (Historic Electric Traction) to cause reputational damage to the current SETS.

What is the process for having a page edited (happy to have admins vet the changes) and locked when under attack in this manner?

Do you or Wikipedia support have an email address?

Regards

Hugh Burns

 * Hello. First, please read Wikipedia's principles on conflict of interest for information on required formal disclosures. You must disclose your relationship with SETS. You should also read our principle for resolving content disputes.
 * The information contained is supported by sources. Wikipedia articles contain all information found in reliable sources, regardless of whether it is positive or negative to the subject. Thank you for starting a discussion on the article talk page about the veracity of the content and reliability of the sources, let's continue there.
 * You can propose a page be protected at WP:RPP, but given the nature of this dispute it is extremely unlikely to be locked.
 * BalaM314 〘 talk 〙『 π 』 08:10, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The errors of fact examples I noted (as just a sample) are not supported by sources. Many of the changes since August 2023 are at best hearsay, at worst fiction. Others are obviously written to cause reputational damage as I previously noted. I presume you have read the negative tone of the material. It appears the extensive changes made since August 2023 (check the extent of changes for yourself) have been written by people associated with a rival group with obvious visible hostility to this group.
 * Dare I also ask are you independent in this matter, or are you also needing to disclose a connection with SETS or another rival group? Where is the requirement for the anonymous hostile content adders to disclose their relationships? There is a logic flaw here.
 * The way a page can be corrupted like this basically says Wikipedia is going to be un unreliable source for information when AI is launched against it (pages will be filled with generated rubbish like this Sydney electric Train Society page is now full of). If your actions in this matter are representative of Wikipedia’s normal procedures, then it appears Wiki has no means to quickly remove false and defamatory content. My deletion of the post August changes was to quickly remove what appears to be false and defamatory content. You actions have blocked this remedy.
 * If you want to resolve this matter properly I would suggest you should be asking what sections are the problem and why, and resolving them, not just restoring the page to try to protect the integrity of a page filled with falsehoods and negative propaganda.
 * I will follow up the conflict dispute link. However there needs to be a clear path forward for Wikipedia to promptly clear pages of misinformation as on display here. Otherwise Wikipedia will become worthless, or will become the subject of legal action for defamation, as the publisher of such material.

Concerning User talk:212.38.185.141
Thank you for notifying said IP. It wasn't strictly necessary, though. It's their 3rd block, but they only got templated for the first block. The "anonblock" template at the top of the page is usually enough notification. Cheers and happy editing. Lectonar (talk) 15:26, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
