Hello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nashville, Tennessee, 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. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:52, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Free Holiness Church moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Free Holiness Church, is not suitable 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.

Proposed deletion of Southern Baptist Logos


The article Southern Baptist Logos has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails WP:GNG with a single sources linking to the SBC's website, meaning it is not independent. I couldn't find any sources that WP:SIGCOV about the logo."

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.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generaliation, other talk pages such as Talk:Sons of Confederate Veterans are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. If you have sources meeting WP:RS a post including them would be appropriate. Doug Weller  talk 16:37, 15 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Let me add to Doug Weller's comment: It seems that you didn't read the article before commenting on the talk page: "The preservation of liberty and freedom was the motivating factor in the South’s decision to fight the Second American Revolution." That's what the article quotes directly from the official web site. Is that "supportive of the confederacy" or not ? Rsk6400 (talk) 17:15, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * What I am saying is that this needs to be edited in certain ways, and whole parts of the article need to be redone and get better sources. "The Sons of Confederate Veterans neither embraces, nor espouses acts or ideologies of racial and religious bigotry" This is from their website! Anything that makes this out to be an actively racist group, "Once Again, Racism Rears up in the Sons of Confederate Veterans" as this article does is wrong. While they support honoring confederate ancestors, not saying that your average southern soldier was in full support of the brutality of slavery, and the use of confederate symbols, that does not mean that you can over-exaggerate these claims. Thank you for contacting me. God Bless. Mullins315 (talk) 18:47, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * That’s the name of a source, the article doesn’t say that. It describes different factions, some overtly racist. Correct? And that source is for “ For years the organization has been divided between racial extremists and those interested in history and genealogy.”. Doug Weller  talk 19:00, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank You. I was talking about the extremely biased sources that were used. Mullins315 (talk) 19:02, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * See WP:NPOV Doug Weller  talk 20:04, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Every organization describes itself using language that has a positive connotation. Do you think that the Wikipedia article on NAMBLA should describe it primarily as an organization seeking "to end the extreme oppression of men and boys in mutually consensual relationships" as a key principle of "personal freedom", or do you think perhaps it would be better to find out from reliable sources what the actual substance of the organization is?  Do you think that we should describe PhRMA as "a trade association of leading biopharmaceutical research companies that represents the interests of patients and health care providers", or might there perhaps be something problematic about that self-description?  --JBL (talk) 17:55, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ertal72. I noticed that you recently removed content from Sons of Confederate Veterans without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please reach a talk page consensus, especially given that Sons of Confederate Veterans has been heavily reviewed by experienced editors and contains an extensive list of reliable sources. Ertal72 (talk) 23:55, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Mullins315! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Sons of Confederate Veterans several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. JBL (talk) 17:58, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Sons of Confederate Veterans shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

 * Thank You. I will do so. Mullins315 (talk) 00:14, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
