Nomination of Zina Spezakis for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Zina Spezakis is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Zina Spezakis until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Paisarepa (talk) 00:07, 27 November 2019 (UTC)

Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Mayra Flores, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. ''Please also note that these articles are subject to WP:DS. Do not reinstate them without adequate discussion and consensus.'' PRAXIDICAE🌈  21:05, 15 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I included the category based off of the citation below, which has already been included in the article proper.

Hi Rhino Ryan! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Libs of TikTok that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. — Shibboleth ink  (♔ ♕) 11:24, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Blaze Wolf. I noticed that you recently removed content from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly 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. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 22:35, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SomeNeatGiraffes. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person   on Twitter Files, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''While the description "right-wing pundits" might not be entirely inaccurate, to make such claims requires the backup of one or more reliable sources. Moreover, their description as "journalists" and "author" is more descriptive about their line of work.'' — SomeNeatGiraffes (talk) 22:31, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

Final warning: Unsourced or poorly-sourced statements about living people
Hi, Rhino Ryan. I see you've received notes above about edits you made that edited unsourced or poorly-sourced statements about Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, J. K. Rowling, and Mayra Flores. I've just reverted another such edit you made, this one about Jennifer Sey. Please understand that Wikipedia takes content about living people very seriously, holding it to high standards of verifiability, neutrality, lack of original research, and source reliability. It is absolutely unacceptable to paraphrase a blog post someone wrote as "defend[ing] ... praise of Adolf Hitler", without citing any source that characterizes the statement as praise. On Wikipedia, primary sources must only be used for very straightforward claims about a subject. Adding your own editorial interpretation of what someone said violates all three of our core content policies: It is original research, it is unverifiable in independent sources, and it is non-neutral.

Given that you haven't replied to your previous warnings for similar issues, I want to stress this here: If you continue to make edits like this, the next step will be a request for action from an uninvolved administrator. I hope it does not come to that. I'll submit politely that if you find yourself unable to edit about a topic with requisite detachment, it may be better to edit about other topics instead. -- Tamzin  &#91;cetacean needed&#93; (they&#124;xe) 22:14, 8 February 2024 (UTC)


 * In the future, if I write about something like a person's views, I will be certain to only refer to it as something cited by a reliable, secondary source. Rhino Ryan (talk) 03:25, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
