WP:ANI Thread
I have closed the WP:ANI thread to which you were privy with a consensus to implement a topic ban for your editing. Effective immediately, you are hereby prohibited from editing any page on or relating to Fringe theories on Wikipedia for a period of one year. This topic ban is to be understood as applying to any FRINGE-related material in the article, draft, or userspaces. A record of your topic ban has been noted here. You may petition to have appeal this topic ban one year from now at WP:ANI, at which time the matter will be reviewed. TomStar81 (Talk) 03:11, 16 December 2016 (UTC)


 * This edit skirts the leash line. You know very well that Lionel's programming focuses on American politics, and you've previously added plenty to the article on him regarding conspiracy theorism. Ian.thomson (talk) 04:57, 23 December 2016 (UTC)


 * I just added a birth date. I didn't know I couldn't edit non-controversial things on personalities who may have diverse ideas, not even on his page, but the disambiguation page.  I thought my ban was about the "fringe" and "US political" topics.  There's nothing fringe or political about a birthday.  Now I know, I guess.  ~  JasonCarswell   (talk)   07:27, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
 * "any page on or relating to" means that if you made non-fringe and non-controversial changes to say, Talk:Alex Jones (radio host), you'd still be in violation of your topic ban. Ian.thomson (talk) 23:50, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of The Great NHS Heist


The article The Great NHS Heist has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern:
 * Non-notable film, no independent coverage, does not meet WP:NFF

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Please explain...
...How creating an article about a movie that claims that there's some conspiracy involving the food and health industries and western governments to actively poison people (causing 70% of deaths in the US), citing a network noted for airing conspiracy theories, does not violate your topic ban on fringe theories. Ian.thomson (talk) 04:57, 23 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I understand that I am banned from "fringe" and "US politics". The film, which I haven't seen yet but look forward to, is about the British health care system.  I don't think that everything political, financial, or health-related is a conspiracy. ~  JasonCarswell   (talk)   05:46, 23 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Considering The Great NHS Heist doesn't mention food and doesn't cite RT, you should know I'm talking about Eating You Alive. Don't play dumb, don't throw out red herrings.  You created an article about a movie that, per a source you cited, claims that there is a conspiracy by the food and health industries and western governments (which would include the US government). Ian.thomson (talk) 05:51, 23 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I apologize if I didn't get the right one. It's 1am and I'm tired and I didn't read it well.  I can be dumb at times, like anyone, even you.  I did both pieces at the same time.  I didn't pause to remember which had what, except that Thom Hartmann interviewed both.
 * Regarding the vegan documentary, which I also haven't seen but look forward to, I wasn't paying attention to the "conspiracy" part of it. It slipped past me.  I was more interested in the food and diet aspect.  Now that you point it out I suppose I'm guilty.  I was just trying to help and add a documentary stub about healthy food options.  ~  JasonCarswell   (talk)   06:12, 23 January 2017 (UTC)


 * The title of the RT citation alone ("Big Ag & The Politicians They Own Are Eating You Alive") should have been enough of an indication that you needed to back away. The description on the Youtube page (claiming that "Big Ag and the Food Industry - and the politicians they own -" [are] "forcing us to eat ourselves to death") should have likewise been a sign that this was dealing with a conspiracy theory.  The first five minutes of the video, which further presented all animal products as poison deliberately foisted on the American people in some sinister plot by the food industry and the American government (supposedly resulting in 70% of deaths in America) should have also confirmed that the film was well within the scope of your topic ban.  There is simply no way it could have slipped past you, unless you need to be indefinitely under WP:CIR. Ian.thomson (talk) 06:32, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for violating your topic ban on fringe theories. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.


 * I went with a year, in line with your topic ban. I did not set the end date to coincide with when your topic ban will be over because you either have not been forthright in descriptions of your editing or else you cannot distinguish between reality and conspiracy theory and need as much time to learn the difference as possible.  If another admin decides to shorten it, I won't object, but you've repeatedly demonstrated that you are either unwilling or incapable to edit from the mainstream perspectives this site sides with. Ian.thomson (talk) 06:32, 23 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I'd be plenty fine with a longer block if you believe that's necessary. The discussion above is the most readily available example of why I believe this user has been regularly lying about his motives and actions here, but too much of the topic ban discussion was repeatedly pointing out similar discrepancies between his claims and his actions.  However, the consensus for a topic ban only being a year instead of indefinite threw me for a loop.
 * @JasonCarswel: I wouldn't've posted the above if you hadn't continued to claim that you somehow missed out on the conspiratorial nature of the RT source, which could only have been accomplished by citing it without reviewing it and even without seeing the title of the source you added. Possible honest and competent responses would have required admitting that you understood there was a conspiratorial aspect to the source (too late now), showing sincere remorse for repeated lies or at least a desire to leave all lies behind in the past (you've demonstrated that you're fluent enough that there was no misunderstanding), promising to avoid all such actions in the future, and explaining how you intend to do so (editing topics that one couldn't possibly formulate conspiracy theories about would be a good start).  Again, though, that's too late for that now, as far as I'm concerned.  Ian.thomson (talk) 01:38, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

Cheers from Vegas! My free-thinking Anarcho-socialist-non-violent-pessimistic punk rock bro!
Hi, I am a novice editor who is primarily a bassologist in many punk rock bands. Your interest in "Lionel" of Lionel Nation fame has caused me to seek you out and say hello. I am bewildered as to why his Wikipedia page has been so heavily censored after seeing the amount of work you put into it. Similar things have happened to me with pages I basically wrote but finally got ironed out see:Steven Ronald Jensen. I was curious to inquire if this censorship is indeed coordinated and if so for what purpose? I hope they cut the shit. Cheers to you from Vegas Earl E. Smith (talk) 11:28, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

Request
Can you please review this Wikipedia page? - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:ODEM — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeff at ODEM (talk • contribs) 08:19, 24 December 2018 (UTC)


 * I'd like to help you. I added the "stub" to it.  I've never reviewed an article before so I don't know enough to adequately counter the other reviewers and at present I won't have time to look at the links and stuff as there are issues the others have noted that need addressing.  Be aware that Wikipedia is blocking a whole lot of alternative solutions because they claim they don't want to promote scams, yet banking, markets, governments, are major scammers that aren't blocked.  Further you have another problem, right there in your very name "Jeff at ODEM".  You work for the company you are writing the article for.  This is frowned upon.  If Brad Pitt's birthday is listed incorrectly he, nor his associates and friends are NOT allowed to correct it, even with a better citation.  Wikipedia's rules are rigged for your "protection".  I copied your article stub to https://infogalactic.com/info/ODEM where we can continue working on it and where they allow people and businesses to edit their own articles - as long as they are not fraudulent.  It's also a good place to start an article, build it up with details, content, and lots of corporate "mainstream" media citations into something robust enough, with notability, to pass muster.  On first glance your project looks legit, and I wish you all the best with it.  We need more decentralized alternative solutions to break through.  These are exciting times.  ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)   18:34, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

Douglas Valentine
Hi. Please note that I've nominated Douglas Valentine for speedy deletion as an unnecessary disambiguation page. Disambiguation pages are meant to direct readers to the correct article when there are multiple Wikipedia articles with the same name. In this case, there aren't any articles for anyone named "Douglas Valentine" in the first place. If you want to create an article for this author, you can start a draft under Draft:Douglas Valentine and work on it until it is ready to be published. Please do check if the author meets the notability criteria for their own article first though. Bennv3771 (talk) 07:30, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi JasonCarswell. I have deleted the page under the WP:G14 criterion. Did you intend to write about the author mentioned here on the Goodreads website?

Vistaprint
Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Vistaprint, please make sure that the category page actually exists. In some cases, it may be appropriate to create a new category in accordance with Wikipedia's categorization guidelines, but it is usually better to use the most specific available existing category. It is never appropriate to leave a page categorised in a non-existent category, i.e. one whose link displays in red. Thank you. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:56, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Gab Dissenter. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 14:51, 1 April 2019 (UTC)


 * My addition was not entirely inappropriate. I was putting a new alternative to Gab Dissenter forward to let others find it, and make an article about Comment Freely, which I don't have time for right now.  It was not meant as an ad nor promotion, but as an alternative, and especially an alternative to those who inhabit Gab.  I have ZERO affiliation with Gab nor Comment Freely, but am all for open source (see my archive for my voluminous contributions there and elsewhere) and I am all for free speech, no matter how unappealing.  That said, I wish to find a compromise that suits the needs of the Wikipedia community regarding listing this alternative to Gab Dissenter.  I'm asking you because you rejected it as it was and would rather deal with a human than the throng in that heated article's talk section.  I really don't have time for this to be drawn out, but I'll make as much time as is necessary without delving into the whole ordeal of making a new Comment Freely article.  ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)  


 * Update: I got no word back despite being censored very soon after my modifications. So I started a Comment Freely article despite wanting to.  Halfway through that I looked at the GitHub link to discover it was actually nested under BitChute.  Perfect!  So I didn't make a new article, I just added to BitChute's page.  I also restored a minimal reference on the Gab Dissenter page.  I'm no fan of BitChute, nor YouTube and their insane censorship, and I don't like the Gab crowd, but like voting, I'm for letting people choose the lesser of evils.  And definitely for freedom over tyranny of people who don't own me. ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)

CommentFreely
Please stop trying to add information about CommentFreely to various articles such as BitChute and Gab Dissenter without accompanying it with a citation from a reliable, independent source showing why it's notable. There are tens of millions of Github repos; their mere existence is not sufficient for them to be included in Wikipedia, which is not an indiscriminate collection of information.

Several people have undone your edits and explained to you what you need to do in order for this information to be included. Continuing to re-add the content without addressing the issues is edit warring. GorillaWarfare (talk) 13:01, 2 April 2019 (UTC)


 * There was an adequate citation to the very source that verifies it's existence and relation to BitChute. I only re-added it after removing the copyrighted material. ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)   10:19, 3 April 2019 (UTC)


 * You are not understanding. The mere existence of CommentFreely is not sufficient for it to be included in the BitChute article. We need some kind of third-party coverage of the software in a reliable source in order for it to be added. Continuing to re-add this without such sourcing is becoming disruptive. GorillaWarfare (talk) 20:09, 3 April 2019 (UTC)


 * It's needed on the BitChute article, where on countless other topics it is not critical. I have not continued to re-add nor were my legitimate attempt to improve that page disruptive.  Wikipedia has earned it's bad name too well. ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)   22:24, 3 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Well, I at least appreciate that you've stopped trying to re-add the content. You keep saying things like "it's needed" but you're not actually providing any explanation of how adding it with nothing more than a citation to the Github repository aligns with Wikipedia's policies on what can be included. I think you'll find you'd have a tough time making such an argument—as I've said several times now, Wikipedia policy requires that content be backed up with coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject to demonstrate that it is notable enough to be included. Simply linking to the Github repository does not satisfy the "independent" criterion, and there is no "coverage" to speak of. What you need is an independent source discussing CommentFreely, in more depth than just "it exists". I have plenty of Github repos of my own, but I don't try to add information about them to Wikipedia, because "it exists" isn't enough to show they're notable. If you take a look at the citations in Gab Dissenter you'll get a better sense of what kind of sourcing is needed for a software project like this. From what I've seen, that kind of sourcing doesn't exist for CommentFreely. Maybe if the project receives a bit more adoption and attention that will change, but at the moment Wikipedia isn't the place for it. GorillaWarfare (talk) 16:16, 4 April 2019 (UTC)


 * , I would add citations but the BitChute branding team, if there is one, picked the WORST name they could have for their project. "Comment Freely", being far too common, is just unsearchable by any engine.  I think it's very notable considering the state of social media, but a lot of what I think it censored on Wikipedia, and WP is hardly cutting edge, and this is not a passion project by any stretch.  ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)   18:29, 4 April 2019 (UTC)


 * We have Wikipedia articles on much less Googleable software projects. The fact of the matter is there is no coverage in reliable, independent sources to speak of. GorillaWarfare (talk) 01:34, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from William Chester Minor into James Murray (lexicographer). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.

Proposed deletion of Chris Taylor (journalist)


The article Chris Taylor (journalist) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No working sources confirming any of the claims here, my search for anything related to this journalist came up empty, does not seem notable."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * Sorry I didn't respond sooner as I've been out of the loop for a couple months. This is Chris Taylor (journalist): https://mashable.com/author/chris-taylor/, https://mobile.twitter.com/FutureBoy, author of How Star Wars Conquered the Universe, https://duckduckgo.com/?q=chris+taylor+star+wars, etc.  I think he's far more notable than countless crap articles on corrupted and censored Wikipedia, but have no need to fight for this one, even if he is a friend from 20 years ago.

Green Party candidates, 2014 Ontario provincial election moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Green Party candidates, 2014 Ontario provincial election, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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 " " 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.  CASSIOPEIA(talk) 08:06, 25 October 2019 (UTC)


 * The other article I recently created, Green Party candidates, 2018 Ontario provincial election, should also be moved to draft and/or deleted then, as well as the Green Party candidates, 2011 Ontario provincial election and Green Party candidates, 2007 Ontario provincial election because they SUBJECTIVELY don't have much information either - EXCEPT being the only full list of all the official Green Party candidates, not found online anywhere else in the entire world. While we're at it, why don't we just censor all the Green Party stuff?  Why bother putting anything informative on Wikipedia at all?  If you do that maybe I will not even bother to work on the recent 2019 national Canadian election and all of their Green Party pages - or maybe I will in spite of establishment efforts to squash Greens.  Instead of banishing it to Drafts for "lacking" maybe you could help by simply improving what's there and building on it, like Wikipedians used to do. ~   JasonCarswell   (talk)   16:06, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Some of what you have included in your new "see also" section is in the GPC template and thus duplicated. Me-123567-Me (talk) 02:14, 29 October 2019 (UTC)


 * It would have been better if you had talked to me first. Clearly I was at work and now I have no idea where I was.  I recommend restoring all of my edits and then I can fix them.
 * Apparently you have some issues with my edits and instead of correcting them you simply did the typical Wikipedian default of reversion/deletion instead of the old way of collectively building.
 * I guess one of the issues you have is that the Green Party Of Canada is separate from provincial parties despite being Canadian. Maybe there's another umbrella category that encompasses all of them, ie "Canadian Green Parties".  I'm trying to better organize the Green pages, the candidates, the history, the provinces, etc. and might even create new social media resources for Greens that aren't regionally limited.
 * If you have other issues you can list them here, either fixed by you (not reverted) or I can fix them myself.
 * I have no interest in dwelling in this bullshit so I'm done for today and will come back tomorrow or later to see how much you have or haven't destroyed of my efforts. ~  JasonCarswell   (talk)   02:23, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
 * So I didn't see this message due to not being on my talk page.
 * That said, you could have consulted the community before you began your efforts either on Talk:Green Party of Canada or at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Green Politics. That said, I kept most of what you had put in. Only put in redlinks per MOS:REDLINKS if you're going to create an article on that topic otherwise redlinks don't belong in an article. I hope this helps! Me-123567-Me (talk) 17:52, 29 October 2019 (UTC)

DYK nomination: Template:Did you know nominations/Christopher Ryan (author)
JasonCarswell, I'm sorry you weren't better informed about what happened with your nomination of Christopher Ryan (author) to be a DYK.

At DYK, nominated articles must be either newly created within the past seven days, or newly expanded fivefold within that same period. Christopher Ryan (author), unfortunately, was neither. Since it had been created back in 2012, its only options were expansion or becoming a Good Article, and articles that short are typically far from meeting the GA criteria.

Prior to your expansion on November 24, the article had been 995 prose characters long after the most recent edit, ten days prior. A 5x expansion would need to bring the article to 4975 prose characters, far more than the 1327 prose characters currently in the article (you added 332 prose characters in your edit). This is why the reviewer said that it was not feasible to expand it that much, though they should have asked you to be absolutely sure.

Since the nomination has been closed, it will no longer show up on the Nominations page, which is why I removed it after you re-added it there. If you think you would be able to add another 3648 prose characters to the article in the next week or so, please feel free to post a request at WT:DYK that the nomination be reopened while you're working on expanding the article. Otherwise, I'm afraid that this one simply won't qualify under the DYK rules (see WP:DYK for details on the various DYK length and time requirements). Best of luck should you decide to give DYK another try. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:38, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
