Hello, I'm Dudhhr. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, American Enterprise Institute, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. – dudhhr talkcontribssheher 21:43, 26 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you Dudhhr, I'm surprised it isn't a reliable source, I've seen discussions about making that integrating that website into wikipedia, regardless I'll go find a different source, thanks for the help Alexanderkowal (talk) 21:46, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Politics of Germany. 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. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 03:15, 26 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Diannaa I did attribute it, but only in my first edit. All of it is copied from other pages, I’m going to add more myself at a later date.

April 2024
Please do not add or change content, as you did at History of North Africa, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. On a smaller note, please also do not mark your edits as "minor" unless you are making superficial changes such as fixing format or grammar errors; see Help:Minor edit. R Prazeres (talk) 16:08, 1 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Oh yeah my bad, clicked minor out of habit Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:45, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * It’s all from General History of Africa volume 3, do I put that in the bibliography or cite each page? Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I've used emotive language as I was writing for the History of Africa article and I'm trying to use a tone similar to oral tradition. If you don't feel it fits then feel free to change the phrasing. I've got to trim down what I have so I thought the extended version was better for that article. Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:57, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * No worries. But two things:
 * 1) You must add citations inline, not at the end of the page. Read the guidelines, as this is part of the basics of editing Wikipedia. Please fix that in your edits, otherwise I'll revert it again as the problem wasn't addressed properly. (Editors are happy to fix any minor format problems, but it's not up to others to add sources and citations for you.)
 * 1) Do not use emotive language or try to emulate oral tradition. Wikipedia uses an encyclopedic tone; see WP:TONE for what this means.
 * If you have any other questions about guidelines, feel free to ask, but do also familiarize yourself with Wikipedia policies in general. Thanks, R Prazeres (talk) 17:06, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * PS: Please also remember to include page numbers in your citations, if you haven't already. R Prazeres (talk) 17:10, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I'll do that now. I have seen a lot of pages just use a bibliography but I guess for history the convention is inline citations and that does make sense. Regarding the tone, please see History of Africa, this is what I'm trying to emulate. I don't think it falls outside of WP:Tone but idk. Alexanderkowal (talk) 17:17, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
Selfstudier (talk) 13:42, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

About your edits
Hi, I'm QwertyForest. I have just seen the dispute going on at Politics of Germany. Although the IP has been edit warring with you, it appears that you have also been edit warring with them. I would suggest going back to TP discussion or perhaps Dispute Resolution. Keep in mind that bringing the matter to an admin noticeboard at this point is probably going to land you with the same sanctions as they give the IP. I hope you and the IP can come to a resolution. QwertyForest (talk) 15:36, 12 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you, I did reach out first and we are talking on the TP but we’re still warring. I’ll leave it for now and see whether we can talk it out. Thanks for your comment Alexanderkowal (talk) 15:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Edit summaries
There's been a discussion about reverting a lot of your recent additions basically because of no edit summaries based on the belief some contentious material is being added. I suggest you use WP:Edit summaries in the future... to avoid what might be a mass revert. Moxy 🍁 22:26, 25 May 2024 (UTC)


 * On which page? If I've written something, I usually do loads of little edits trying to find the right wording or phrasing. I usually do edit summaries for big changes or contentious ones Alexanderkowal (talk) 22:31, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll use abbreviations in the future Alexanderkowal (talk) 22:33, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Agnosticism and Atheism
Hello, I reverted your 2nd sentence in the agnosticism article, but I also see you are trying to edit the Atheism article. I just want you to know, as someone that has been editing the agnosticism article for over a decade, that the atheists in the atheism article are dogmatic. They've been trying to re-write the Agnosticism article for years to conform to their atheist narrative. You will almost certainly have, no luck getting changes in the Atheism article.They want the broader definition. I agree with the arguments you are making, but they want the broader definition so it can encompass agnosticism and then make agnosticism just a subset of atheism instead of being something distinct. Obviously up to you on what time you invest, but I just wanted to share with you the very, uphill battle you are facing. IIXVXII (talk) 21:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks, it’s okay, it’s natural for a page to have a bias towards the topic. The broad definition is problematic, however as long as there’s a disambiguation link to agnosticism I think it’s okay, I’m not going to invest anymore time into it Alexanderkowal (talk) 21:35, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I do think the agnosticism article needs to be expanded to discuss absolutism vs relativism as this seems to be the dividing line between agnostics and atheists Alexanderkowal (talk) 08:14, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Or rather perspectivism Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:16, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Reviewing the norms
Can we get you to review WikiProject Countries... Specifically WP:COUNTRYLEAD and COUNTRYSECTIONS. Country articles are simply not set up like pop culture articles... there's more of an academic approach. Moxy 🍁 22:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Okay will do, thanks. At the moment the government section reads neutral and adding criticism in might make it read negatively, and I’m not sure how to fix that Alexanderkowal (talk) 08:24, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Is WP:BRD appropriate for contentious topics? Going by policy it is, but in practice idk Alexanderkowal (talk) 19:14, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

United States
I notice a tendency on your part to insert politically opinionated text into general discussions. You have done this in several articles (with warnings from WP editors and administrators to desist), and now you have added ideological POV commentary to a general section on U.S. foreign policy. This cannot, and will not, stand&mdash;not without a full discussion on the Talk page about its appropriateness. Mason.Jones (talk) 15:31, 3 June 2024 (UTC)


 * ? I have not had warnings to desist? Not everything in the US article has to come from a US perspective, in order to reach WP:NPOV others must be applied and this is an example of that Alexanderkowal (talk) 15:34, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Editors do not insert sweeping, opposing viewpoints on every U.S. government policy in a general country article. There are sub-articles in Wikipedia that delve into ideological positions (and where several viewpoints are presented). The article "United States" is not the place for ideological asides, and certainly not without discussion on the Talk page. Your editing history is rife with such interventions, and they won't be tolerated. Mason.Jones (talk) 16:04, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * ? I don't know what you're getting at. In a section on foreign relations I included a sentence about the US' relations with developing countries, including Africa, with the preceding sweeping clause giving context. This has nothing to do with ideology at all. I honestly didn't feel there was a need for prior discussion since the content is so obviously relevant and extensively cited. I work via WP:BRD, my edits are not made in isolation, they require input from other editors. I think you've overreacted, and I hope we can work constructively Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:58, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I saw your deleted comment, please take a breather and come back to this later Alexanderkowal (talk) 18:02, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Keep it civil
You can make your point without challenging an editors common sense, as you did here. Also, keep in mind that edit warring is still edit warring even when done in slow motion. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:48, 7 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you, I don't think we're edit warring although the discussion could be more collaborative Alexanderkowal (talk) 15:50, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Lead fixation
In one of the many Wiki chat rooms people are discussing your lead fixation all over. I suggest you review How to create and manage a good lead section. Moxy 🍁 16:12, 7 June 2024 (UTC)


 * it's because I know its importance, and it's usually the only thing I read when reading wikipedia. I struggle to process lots of information, so I find it easier to start with the lead as a summary and expand on the summary in the body, in contrary to wikipedia policy. Tbh w you, it is mainly ego that attracts me to highly trafficked articles, however I think I still make positive contributions. I suppose I should always have a cursory overview of an article before editing its lede, it's just not how I intuitively work Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:20, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll read the policy more, I'm British so prefer convention to rules Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:21, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Seriously thinking of taking action against this Mason guy Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:31, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Feel free to join the community IRC.... Moxy 🍁 16:44, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you, I'll make sure not to spam or anything Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:47, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

While on this subject, I agree about the lead fixation and the current RFC about the Nakba in my view is a form of disruption, since the only editor at all concerned about this has been yourself. There has been no current dispute and therefore no reason to have an RFC. Selfstudier (talk) 09:15, 9 June 2024 (UTC)


 * How the rfc a form of disruption? It's trying to correct my mistake in not seeking consensus first on a contentious issue. Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:18, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
 * There is no evidence that this material is contentious. It is not disputed by anyone. Furthermore, we specifically discussed this issue on the talk page and you agreed that there was no need for an RFC. Selfstudier (talk) 09:38, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't have a strong opinion on whether there should be an rfc, I didn't start it, I just gave reasoning for it. People can predict what is going to be controversial and possibly contentious Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:41, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the criticism I'll work on it, if I seem to be doing it again just link the policy that Moxy has done above Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello
Hello, can you help me with something? There is a user (FMSky) who reverted absolutely all the edits I made, without justification, and continues to remove referenced information, such as in Jobbik party, where he removed information that I had not even included. Hidolo (talk) 01:09, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * You're a single purpose account / sockpuppet who mass inserts "far-right" to political parties, often without sources to back it up, and does nothing else --FMSky (talk) 01:11, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I'm not that. I only want to fix Wikipedia, because of your biases edits. You only eliminate sourced info. That is not well. Hidolo (talk) 01:15, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I recommend contributing beyond polemical insertions as it’s a good way to gain experience and familiarity w policy, just find something you’re passionate about. Admins will also be more sympathetic with an editor who contributes more widely Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:12, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * WP:BRD is a good policy Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:13, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I don’t think you should be mass reverting another editor on all their edits. Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:15, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I recommend doing an WP:RfC with the various options, and do a survey below that where you search “Jobbik ideology” into Google scholar and tally up all the academic sources that discuss Jobbik’s ideology about which labelling they use. Maybe the first 5 pages? Make sure to not be biased when doing it as people will check Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:06, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * You can also start a topic at Administrators' noticeboard if your issue is with the conduct of another editor Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:09, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * ^ I would do this Alexanderkowal (talk) 09:30, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * When doing polemical insertions I try to be really careful with the wording so as not to ruin the flow of the article and avoid loaded words where possible, people’s opposition tends to be around the wording rather than the content, and you’ve always got to be thinking about WP:NPOV and representing the different POVs weighted by their appearance in WP:RSs Alexanderkowal (talk) 10:04, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

1RR violations
Please self-revert your latest edits to comply with 1RR, this is not the first 1RR violation I have brought to your attention.

and. Makeandtoss (talk) 14:01, 23 June 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm confused, those two diffs you've linked weren't both reverts, the second one was expanding on the first Alexanderkowal (talk) 14:07, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The second one's edit summary states: "Undid revision 1230563017 by האופה". Makeandtoss (talk) 14:43, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * you're right, I'll revert, I still think that edit is awful though Alexanderkowal (talk) 14:46, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * so if two people revert make the same edit you can't revert both even if it's against consensus? Alexanderkowal (talk) 14:50, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes, 1RR is a very strong restraint on editing. Multiple edits in a series count as only one edit ("an edit or a series of consecutive edits") if no one else has edited between them, but if you make an edit that has the effect of reverting and then someone else makes an edit, you can't rapidly follow that with anything that reverts that edit or any other recent edit (unless one of the exceptions listed in WP:NOT3RR applies). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 16:43, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you. I think there should be some sort of exemption for content deriving from consensus from an RfC (which wasn’t the case here) Alexanderkowal (talk) 16:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I hear you, and I've been there, but the rules seem designed to avoid the possibility that any one person will start enforcing what they perceive to be a consensus that others do not see and to enforce a "cooling off" period for editors to try to gain some perspective about what they are doing. The rules also make you more careful about performing reverts of minor aspects, since you know you're using up your ability to do other reverts for a while. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:10, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That makes sense, I do think there should be an exemption for strong consensus from an RfC as that would’ve received community wide input that don’t have the page watched Alexanderkowal (talk) 17:19, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I've put it at Village pump (policy) Alexanderkowal (talk) 17:30, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately here this rule is taken literally instead of the spirit of it, i.e. even if someone on the talk page explicitly tells you that they now agree and you can revert, you still can't revert if you had already reverted once in the past 24 hours. Makeandtoss (talk) 09:29, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
