User talk:Philly 1940

July 2023
Hello, I'm Knitsey. I noticed that you recently removed content from Terenure College RFC 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. Thanks.

 * The information while partly true was defamatory to the clubs reputation. The comments were very slanted against the club.
 * Most of the allegations made were not proven simply stated. This is why i removed them. Philly 1940 (talk) 22:30, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The article details all of the sanctions imposed on the club. This is not disputed. It belongs in the article.
 * If you believe the reference was incorrect in any aspect then please provide a reliable source WP:RS that states this. Knitsey (talk) 22:35, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * This was my first time to edit a wiki page so apologies for not following proper procedure. I will endeavour to add reasons in any future changes or additions. Philly 1940 (talk) 22:32, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thats ok, it can be a confussing process. If you're removing anything then it's best to put a reason in your edit summary.
 * Articles often have sections criticising the subject. Just because we don't like it, it doesn't mean it can't be included. It's not defamatory to state the club was fined. Knitsey (talk) 22:37, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Terenure College RFC, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

 * The article was fed to the newspaper by the IRFU to suit their slant on what actually happened. Just because something is printed in a new paper does not make this content correct.
 * This article has a bias / slant against the good standing of TC RFC and should be removed please. Philly 1940 (talk) 22:38, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * As this is an encyclopedia you will need to reinstate the reference and then add another reference from a WP:RS as to why the news article was untrue/slanted.
 * It's not defamation to state the club was fined and why. Knitsey (talk) 22:41, 4 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I have reverted the removal again. The material is fine and the reference is solid. Do not remove the material again without consensus. Matt Deres (talk) 22:55, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Gain consensus
Hi, if you could take a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Edit_warring I'm posting this as you are a new user and I wanted you to be aware of this rule so that neither of us falls foul of it and gets into trouble. I'm going to revert your edit and then post a message on the talk page Talk:Terenure College RFC so that we can come to an agreement. This will also give other editors chance to comment.
