hope this helps explain. you can see for me to show you all the pictures with the serial number on tail planes, and then all the google earth location, then the forums which some are quite reliable when cross referencing, adding to scramble to verify the location, and if it exists, then from google earth number of hangers, then you add cctv footage from them taking off from base. it is more reliable then most if not all western sources. cause many times in whatever publication I can find so many errors. such as 2011 article from military anaylsis saying china had nothing simular to the arleigh burke destroyer, which is false cause PLAN has Type 052C, then he said that PLAN has no AESA in service, but the KJ-2000 & KJ-200 are using AESA. I tend to ignore analysis that view in a negative way, and ignoring physical proof.

counting and compiling JH-7A tail numbers there are well over 70 as claimed in the referenced.

Richelieu class battleship
When you thought that the material for the Richelieu class battleship was copied from that for the Dunquerque class battleship, this was only true for it before copyediting. Note that Richelieu class battleship doesn't have a copyedit tag (any more), unlike Dunquerque class battleship. I suggest, if you wish the material to be in the Dunquerque article instead of the Richelieu article, to copy it there from the Richelieu article.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to French battleship Dunkerque, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. The reverted edit can be found [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=485931938 here]. Shriram (talk) 17:04, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Battle of Fort Pulaski
Thanks for the assist at Battle of Fort Pulaski. The overall presentation is remarkably cleaner looking. Following your general guidelines, (a) 'small' and (b) 'center' coding is removed from captions, except for my hold out on portraits. (c) Captions are limited to two lines on my browser to limit gallery 'push down'. (d) Two pics in a four-frame gallery are deleted to limit 'push down' into text. (e) Caption wording now eliminates apostrophes and abbreviations, I think.

However on printing it, the forced breaks in two-line captions show as three and four lines. More to learn. Thanks again for your encouragement. Could you take another look to see if the most egregious misalignment is addressed? TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 12:03, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

22 Wing/Canadian Forces Base North Bay
Thank you for your remarks. The page is being rewritten and edited by the Wing Heritage Office of this base because the many folks who wrote the material before we (22 Wing/CFB North Bay) got to it either had never been to the air base and/or showed they hadn't the slightest knowledge of the base.

In terms of the page's extent, because we are responsible for the air sovereignty of the entire country of Canada and of the North American continent in concert with the United States we regularly have considerable interest shown in our base and its history (particularly our NORAD Underground Complex). Good example is a visit in the early 1960s by Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia -- how often does an African emperor take time to visit a Northern Ontario air force base? And last year the filming of a motion picture on our base, starring Laurence Fishburne and Bill Paxton. Due to this large, avid interest, and because there is no other public page where we can reach the public as well as Wikipedia, we have set the goal of having a thorough, correct history on the page.

As well, unlike fighter bases, bomber bases, etc., whose mandate is straightforward and readily understandable by the public, air defence and aerospace defence are more esoteric and require a bit more explanation. Example, integral to air defence is Ground Controlled Interception or "GCI", an air force term; a brief explanation of what GCI is helps readers understand what we do at North Bay.

Photographs will accompany the page shortly, by the way, many never having been seen by the public. These will break up the current masses of text, and add an attractive graphic note to the page.

All of this said, the page's final edition is not expected to be much longer than its current state.

Disambiguation link notification for September 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ivan Rogov-class landing ship, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Russian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:42, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

I have reported you for several admins for edit warring and removing sourced contents !
Since talking to you is of no use, I have decided to take this to the admins. You have no rights to determine if a source is reliable or not !!

Be gone ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:B8BF:C0:A40B:3EC8:EBC1:5351 (talk) 01:19, 25 January 2015 (UTC)


 * This behaviour seems to have continued. I will also report. Mr. Not Funny Nickname (talk) 16:48, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

STOP YOUR Revert War !!!
I am here to start a Revert WAR with you if that is what you want !! Stop removing sourced content and adding your own god damn opinion. You can add materials but STOP removing sourced content. I have already reported you to admins and any more of your revert will be considered edit war and you will be BANNED from wikepedia for good !!.

BTW, NO ONE Cares about your own damn personal opinions !! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:B8BF:C0:A40B:3EC8:EBC1:5351 (talk) 21:27, 24 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Simply adding sourced information is inadequate. Information must come from reliable sources. I suggest you familiarize yourself with the relevant Wikipedia policies on sourcing. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 21:40, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You call your source reliable source and other people's unreliable ?? PROVE IT FIRST !!!

The sources I have are all Chinese sources from official Chinese news media and backed up with latest pictures !!

Your source is a single source coming and is an American source !! Which is more accurate and reliable regarding Chinese military hardware?

NOW STOP YOUR GOD DAMN Editing warring !!

As I said, you can add materials but stop removing sourced content. NOBODY cares about your worthless opinions !!

If you want to contribute positively to Chinese military sections you are welcome to do so but first respect other contributors.


 * Your sources are blogs written by non-experts, which explicitly goes against WP:BLOGS. In addition, bare images are not reliable sources. An image needs to be interpreted by an expert to be usable. Using a bare image as a source violates WP:ORIGINAL, since the wiki editor will be the one doing the interpreting.


 * Again, familiarize yourself with the relevant Wikipedia guidelines. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 21:51, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

______________________________________________________________________

RovingPersonalityConstruct, I have just added official Chinese sources backing up with pictures for the JL-2, 093, and J-20 articles. Now please stop removing sourced content. You can add materials and trim the articles but please stop removing sourced content, as you can see now. The sources are all official Chinese news agencies and backed up with pictures. One of them even used US Department of Defense.

Thank you.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

RovingPersonalityConstruct, now with many relaiable Chinese and western sources added. I hope that you stop this. Thank you.

I do not mean to offend you but just to keep it straight.

Peace out.

________________________________________________________

BTW, the source you provided for the 093 article is actually a Wikipedia page which goes against the rules of using source. You can not use a Wikipedia page. Also, the wiki page you used as source direct to the US Department of Defense page and it DOES NOT have anything related to the 093 at ALL !!!

Anyway, just to point out. Here is your so called "reliable source" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_Defense

Thank you and have a nice day.

Peace out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:B8BF:C0:A40B:3EC8:EBC1:5351 (talk) 22:35, 24 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Refs that looks like refer to items in the Bibliography section, and are perfectly valid. That particular ref refers to the Annual Report To Congress: Military and Security Developments Involving the People’s Republic of China 2014, which was properly listed in the Bibliography section.


 * Looking through the refs you've added:


 * http://mil.sohu.com/20140916/n404363632.shtml seems useful for technical specs. I will add that when I revise my version of the article. http://www.guancha.cn/Science/2013_04_02_135879.shtml is no good; it says the figure of five Type 093s in service comes from foreign (non-Chinese) sources. Since it doesn't say who those sources are, the US DoD figure is still a better choice. Both articles also don't seem to say anything about units planned, etc..


 * tiananmenstremendousachievement.blogspot.com and http://aviationintel.com/ fall under WP:BLOGS; don't use them. The http://theaviationist.com/ article is inappropriately used; it does not actually say what the wiki article is claiming. The Liveleak video does not have expert commentary, so is not a reliable source. The wantchinatimes.com article, written by a "staff reporter" is apparently just regurgitating stuff from another site, so it doesn't seem useful. http://news.ifeng.com/ may have some value.


 * On the whole, your sources are haphazardly included. Your sources certainly do not justify using the old version of the Type 093 article. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 22:56, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

---

You still have the gut to say that your source is reliable?? It is another Wikipedia page for United States Department of Defense ! I will KEEP FIGHTING YOU UNTIL THE END. Bring it ON !

http://www.guancha.cn/Science/2013_04_02_135879.shtml is a Chinese source and hence more reliable than your source!


 * As I pointed out in my previous response, the reference you object to refers to an item in the Bibliography section. This form of referencing is used elsewhere on Wikipedia. Familiarize yourself with these practices. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 01:01, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule, as you did at Type 093 submarine. 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 appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Bbb23 (talk) 01:53, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Type 056 corvette. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. --MelanieN (talk) 22:24, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Your recent editing history at Type 093 submarine shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Sockpuppetry by Tamlinwah and Shulinjiang
No administrator has addressed the SPI I made. Do you know what to do in a case like this? I'm hoping there's a better way than just messaging admins after admins on their talk pages. Also, I'm planning to launch another SPI here because of a user named Peter O'Conner. Judging by the behaviour, it's definitely Tamlinwah and his other sock puppet was banned indefinitely. Khazar (talk) 05:41, 23 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Nothing I've tried has produced a long-term effect. The only way to stop the editor is to get the pages protected, otherwise the editor just makes the same edits over and over again. I haven't tried


 * I'm waiting a bit until filing another WP:ANI, since it would probably not do for me to file another so soon (you found my first one), but I'm confident another favourable - if temporary - resolution can be had on the grounds of continued Disruptive editing. From the first ANI, I can show I tried using other WP content-dispute resolution measures (which failed due to lack of interest), and that the editor makes more use of talk pages now but avoids addressing other editor's points.


 * But I suspect with two hefty ANIs worth of evidence it will be easier to go to WP:RFPP and have immediately-affected pages semi-protected, which may be the best we can do until the SPI is looked into.


 * I also suspect that User:Peter O'Conner and User:Tamlinwah are the same editor. I was actually thinking of filing an ANI for Peter O'Conner (still constantly adding unsourced and/or poorly sourced info), but an SPI would make making an ANI case easier. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 00:55, 24 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, somebody requested administrative action to the SPI so the resolution might arrive within a week or so. Unfortunately, it might just be a bunch of blocks rather than permenant page protections from IP addresses. As for Peter O'Conner, I will launch an SPI soon and inform you when it's made. Feel free to add any more evidence that I might overlook when making it. Khazar (talk) 23:29, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

New IP address on the Type 99 tank
There's a new IP address on the Type 99 tank article and he appears to be adding what looks like biased and possibly unreliable sources to the article to back up content he/she has added. Is it possible to give your inquiries about it? Khazar (talk) 18:52, 2 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure what you mean by "give your inquiries about it".


 * The editor has also popped up using Special:Contributions/2602:306:B8BF:C0:31F3:A780:D607:D158 (which is a within an IP range used before.) - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:06, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Al Khazar Sockpuppet?
Seriously, I have my doubt it's a coincidence you both show up at the same time and vandalize many articles related to Chinese defense topics, your "sources" are a complete joke and yet you 2 keep seeing fit to delete any sources that you disagree with no matter how much more reliable they are then your sources such as that Awful RAAF fanpage that's Geocities quality.

Requesting a ban on both of you either way on both topics, you've ruined them with so much false information they'll practically have to be re-written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.168.140.161 (talk) 12:16, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

According to ONI
RovingPersonalityConstruct, since you said that ONI is the most reliable and credible source. You openly said that it is superior to other source. According to that source on page 26: ""The more advanced 094 Jin class SSBN will carry the new JL-2 submarine launched ballistic missile with a range of 4000 miles or 7400 kilometers and carries 3 to 4 MIRV warhead. The JL-2 SLBM has an increased range over the Xia'sJL-l SLBM and is capable of reaching the continental United States from Chinese littorals. The Jin SSBN with theJL-2 SLBM gives the PLA Navy its first credible second-strike nuclear capability."

It clearly said that it is capable of reaching continental USA while sailing only along Chinese coast (Chinese littorals), mean while you used another source saying that it can not and you also add several BS such as it can reach India which everyone knows.

Since you are proved wrong with your own source. I decided to remove the other unreliable source. I also added some other changes such as the exact wording. You keep using your own exaggerated wording to push your agenda and propaganda through. This is not acceptable ! Because the source clearly said: "Nuclear deterrence patrols will likely commence this year". I added 2015 to clear things.

I also moved the ONI's report regarding 094's noise to a new section under noise because it is more appropriate that way, also adding its actual noise level using other source. I suggest you not to remove them unless you can come up with actual more reliable source.

Thank you.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Chinese sub sources

 * Hi. I would advise that the sources used be checked out fully via community input at the WP:RS noticeboard. I myself have had some issues with claims made about Russian missile systems, (The S-400 I seem to recall it was). It may seem pedantic, but it gives an authoritative outcome. Effectively I agree with your concerns, but using the talkpage I suspect will attract POV pushers.

Hi, this is for Harbin Y-12 edit you made earlier this month
You know, every editor can contribute. However, when it comes to correcting something that is FIRST written by an user, you should not be too picky. You can improve those edits made by previous ones, but not delete the whole progress and rewrite as the same information but the different style. I understand stylish and whatever is needed for perfectness, you can add a link to the text, but not delete all. This article is what I 've found, you shouldn't used it as your contributions activities. Besides, my text is 9/10 correct, you just rewrote it for contribution earning... ItalicAlso mind the copyrights policy Hypersonic man 11 Talk


 * This was my thought process. I read the original article text:

"On August 4 2020, a Kenya Air Force Harbin Y-12-II suffered an accident at Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia while delivering supplies to U.N. Amisom forces, 10 people on board survived but the aircraft was badly damage."


 * I saw "Kenya Air Force" and suspected it might by copy-and-pasted from the source (my first thought is that it should be "Kenyan Air Force".) I then read the source article, and in the first paragraph found:

"A Kenya Air Force Harbin Y-12-II suffered an accident at Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia. There were no serious injuries to the 10 people on board but the aircraft was seriously damaged. The landing gear as well as the left-hand wing have collapsed."


 * So it was copied. Then I thought that this might be borderline WP:PLAGIARISM if there really was no other way to put it (what were you saying about copyright policy again?) Then I realized that "suffered an accident" is very vague; there are many types of aircraft accidents. Fortunately, the article title indicates that the accident was a crash. Reading the source article a bit more, it also said that the crash occurred after take off, a detail that which I thought might be useful to add.


 * At this point, something like this was probably going through my head:

"On August 4 2020, a Kenyan Air Force Harbin Y-12-II crashed after taking off at Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia while delivering supplies to U.N. Amisom forces..."


 * Next, I looked at "delivering supplies to U.N. Amisom forces". As it turns out, this too was copied from the second paragraph of the article.

"The accident happened after the aircraft had taken off from Dhobley Airstrip after delivering supplies to U.N. Amisom forces."


 * Any concerns about WP:PLAGIARISM could be easily side-stepped by condensing it into "resupplying AMISOM". First, I capitalized "AMISOM" because it's an acronym. Second, the UN part seems superfluous since it's not a UN mission, just one that the UN approves of. Third, I thought "AMISOM forces" might be redundant in the context of a tactical resupply mission, so I got rid of "forces".


 * So now there was:

"On August 4 2020, a Kenyan Air Force Harbin Y-12-II crashed after taking off at Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia while resupplying AMISOM..."


 * Taking the immediately-above entries in the accident list as templates, and rearranging things because I thought it might make things flow better, yielded:

"On 4 August 2020, a Y-12-II of the Kenyan Air Force resupplying AMISOM crashed after taking off from Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia..."


 * As a whole, there was now:

"On 4 August 2020, a Y-12-II of the Kenyan Air Force resupplying AMISOM crashed after taking off from Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia, 10 people on board survived but the aircraft was badly damage."


 * To break up the run-on sentence, I got:

"On 4 August 2020, a Y-12-II of the Kenyan Air Force resupplying AMISOM crashed after taking off from Dhobley Airstrip in Somalia. 10 people on board survived. The aircraft was badly damage."


 * Taking the entries in the accident list as inspiration, I used one sentence for personnel, and one sentence for the aircraft. Those sentences could easily be merged.


 * "10 people on board survived" needed to be expanded to say "All 10 people on board survived"; otherwise, it could be interpreted as that there were more than 10 people on board. I like to think that changing "people on board" to "occupants" ("personnel" could also have been used) makes things less wordy, but I suppose that comes down to personal preference.


 * Changing "badly damaged" to "seriously damaged" was also a matter of personal preference. Either way works.


 * TL;DR


 * My edit was motivated by the desire to address issues - or potential issues - with the original text. Your complaint suggests that you do not understand the significance of what was done.


 * In your ignorance-induced umbrage, you claim that I am motivated by, effectively, a desire for personal glory. I wonder if you are merely projecting your own motivations upon others. Your user page seems to be well on its way to becoming a temple of self-aggrandizement. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 20:21, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Roving
Dear roving, for the citation critic you've made earlier this week, i agree with you. I later found out that Wikipedia (no matter in which language) is a unreliable source as some article itself is already having citation problems and Wikipedia is a platform where you collect information to write the article. However, according to community, WAF 2020 publish is a reliable hence international source thus cited multiple time by users, so you might want to undo your "undo edit" and find something that is wrong but not everything to delete. Besides, only the Chinese wiki have the stats. and they are often correct, we don't know the real, because PLA is highly suspicious and secretive. Hypersonic man 11 Talk — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hypersonic man 11 (talk • contribs) 09:35, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

HEY, I AM THE ONE THAT SHOULD BE SAYING YOU
Okay, it's my fault to add wrong source to the "J-20" section, the real stats. of it is 50+ and I have a correct source for it(as the official wikipage has it). WAF2020 has everything, and what does this"WAF2020 lumps together "J-11/16/Su-27/30/35" into one category, but you used it to (incorrectly) verify the individual quantities in the article." has to do with the stats.? The stats are also written in PLAAF page of the WIKI, and someone has the information. "lump" huh, you should do more research before you criticized others. As of now, Wikipedia did not "support and encourage" the citing, but the cn Wikipedia is the only place that have the stats., and we need it. Prospectively, we don't know the stats. because the Chinese are hiding some of it, but we manage to find it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hypersonic man 11 (talk • contribs) 06:55, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

copyvio tag at Al-Mansur Qalawun
You tagged the article with the copyvio template in November of 2018. The entire paragraph was directly lifted and was foundational, thus I deleted the paragraph and called for a revdel.

J-20 revert.
The source in my revision is newer, and they are both reputable source. Both sources explicitly state the newer version of J-20 uses WS-10 while older uses AL-31. If you want to mention AL-31, you could add a new entry in the data table like the one on Su-57. Do not undo revision if you disagree. Provide source states J-20 manufacturer uses AL-31 in 2020. Otherwise it’s counted as vandalism. —Loned (talk) 22:50, 12 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Apologies. Early this year a vexatious editor tried to push the idea that the WS-10C-powered J-20s were in production (see that discussion starting at []). From what I can gather, prototypes powered by the WS-10C are now flying; in January apparently it was expected that testing would take a year. I do not think it was mentioned that the WS-10Cs were being used in production at that time. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 23:05, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Chinese romanisations
1. Of all people you choose to misspell, you picked some of 20th century China's best statesmen. I find this absurdly racist, if not a neocolonialist reenactment of what these statesmen tried their hardest to overthrow, since NO ONE@wiki misspells ROMAN or Byzantine Greek emperor names, but that's not the point today---

About your misinterpretation of Wiki policies: It's not JUST a romanization. IT'S THEIR ENGLISH LANGUAGE NAME, because yes, mant of the great 20th century Chinese statesmen in question have been educated at IVY LEAGUE colleges. They can spell/speak English just fine!!! So your policy, if true, doesn't count, esp when ALL documents they or official media like Chou Enlai's "Hsinhua News" (literal spelling in Chou's document) feature "their English name," not just a garbled written transcription. Why is it an English name? Because...

2. You do know that Chinese people in the West consider Wade Giles their actual "Western name?" Just as Western as Peter/John, it's racist to consider one valid but the other not. You don't correct YOUR coworkers on how to pronounce or spell their names???

It's not a romanization issue but a basic respect issue, !!!just like it's not ok to be racist/ use the n word on Black people nor ANY ethnic slurs. !!!Willfully!!!/repeatedly butchering their names is a literal microaggression, if not hate crime akin to using racial slurs, and a fireable offense by HR.

3. It has previously been decided that pages CAN be MOVED to a romanization that they actually used. Ex: "Every name in his records refers to as "CHANG Hsueh-liang. It dose not make sense to rename a person to the name he never use. — HenryLi " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Chang_Hsueh-liang#RFC_for_Pinyin_vs_WG_names Thus, there is literally nothing!!! controversial about NOTING that people in the time they lived in, esp the person in question HIMSELF, didn't spell it that way in their own English Books (Mr Liang), signed letters to American, in other words, ENGLISH speaking government officials (Mr Chou), or ironically, even the Communist Party's internal documents.

This is indeed the "WP: CommonName." I didn't even ask to RENAME+MOVE the page to save you guys the hassle, even though it ought to be done OUT OF RESPECT to them+to undo this linguistic neocolonialism. !!! Why on earth do Westerners@Wikipedia try to popularize misspelled, disrespectful names, is it ok to constantly butcher personal names at the office????? Should Chinese wiki insist on "TRAHMPEU" or "Aurbornma" for "Trump/Obama???"

4. It can even be a paragraph: "English romanization of name" During Mao's lifetime, the English-language media universally rendered his name as Mao Tse-tung, using the Wade-Giles system of transliteration for Standard Chinese though with the circumflex accent in the syllable Tsê dropped. Due to its recognizability, the spelling was used widely, even by the Foreign Ministry of the PRC after pinyin (Hanyu Pinyin) became the PRC's official romanization system for Mandarin Chinese in 1958; the well-known booklet of Mao's political statements, The Little Red Book, was officially entitled Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung in English translations. While the pinyin-derived spelling Mao Zedong is increasingly common, the Wade-Giles-derived spelling Mao Tse-tung continues to be used in modern publications to some extent.[11]"

If I got any policy wrong or if you think the issues aren't that serious/racist (I view as "Wiki's racist usage of literal ethnic slurs"), feel free to correct me. ;) I am so tired of racism and neocolonialism.

In the future, can we come together/craft a Wiki policy stating an exception to the pinyin rule: that it's R@CIST/unacceptable to misspell famous Chinese people's WESTERN names.

Thanks for understanding. And hope you come to China one day rather than with these silly Roman letter filters. ;) Frankly, fvck the Roman alphabet/all romanizations. ;) - — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.85.185.153 (talk) 8:56, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Editing Chinese Military wikipedia
I noticed that you have reverted several updates that I made on Chinese military warship pages. If you believe that the updates that I made don't have a strong enough source, please check and revert all the Chinese military-related pages both in English and in Chinese Mandarin, because I believe most if not all of them also don't have the strong verifiable sources that you demanded.

The edit was reverted with the reason that the source is not strong. This is inconsistent. The same source (Naval News/Xavier Vavasseur was cited (see ref 42) and accepted in a previous update. Why is the same source acceptable in previous updates (commissioning) but my updates using the same source was removed?

Frankly, that line of reasoning is unconvincing.)


 * As for Defenceworld, I did not realize/remember it was even used until I checked just now. Based on the about page - which at least has something compared to naval.com.br or its English mirror - it does seem underwhelming; the source article also isn't much to phone home about. On the whole, I am ambivalent about the source, and would not object to its removal and the appropriate modification of dependent content. I leave it to you to fix since - evidently - you feel somewhat stronger about it. No doubt you will encounter other uses of Defenceworld to assess. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 12:11, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

PRODs
Hello, RovingPersonalityConstruct,

I just wanted to thank you for tagging articles for Proposed Deletion at the rate of a few pages, every few days rather than dozens at one time. There are only 2 or 3 admins who regularly review PRODs and it really helps to have a manageable number (usually between 20-40/day) rather than hundreds all at once. One day, an editor really overwhelmed us by PROD tagging 300 articles on one day but many of those articles were de-PROD'd and sent to AFD instead because it was such an unusually high number of page taggings, editors who check PROD'd articles couldn't review them all in a week. I appreciate you working through our articles on UAV and tagging ones that don't seem suitable for the project. Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 22:59, 17 September 2022 (UTC)

 * At the moment, I'm leaning towards just a general note on editing (notability, reliable sourcing, formatting references, refbombing, etc.) on XdeLaTorre's talk page. Going through XdeLaTorre's more ancient edits, it seems that at the time the edits were accepted; at least one article has a rejected contemporary AFD that was raised on similar grounds to mine. Perhaps it really is just a case of ignorance/laziness arising from prior tolerance, and improvement is still possible.

GJ-11 and Dark Sword have their own articles; relationship with 601-S is WP:OR and has since been removed from those articles."

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.

Hunan–Hubei–Jiangxi Soviet
I know I was a bit frosted and frustrated adding and readding the other text, like why did you remove the postal text "Hunan–Hupeh–Kiangsi Soviet"? Most of the publications in the 20th century are written in postal and Wade-Giles before pinyin was adopted universally in 1982 and the PRC phased out the non-pinyin texts after 1987. -174.95.137.59 (talk) 02:55, 22 December 2022 (UTC)


 * It's not a significant alternative name (MOS:ALTNAME), not for a topic that is heavily tied to the PRC-side of things is concerned, and certainly not in today's usage. A single self-published source does establish significance. Saying that, inclusion in one of the Chinese language transliteration templates would be appropriate; that's what they're there for.


 * For an ROC-related article things would be different where exceptions under WP:PINYIN are required/permitted.

In regards to article: HQ-9
Hey there,

Could you kindly elaborate on your concerns for WP:SELFPUB in citing the spec sheet from Zhuhai Airshow 2022 for the HQ-9 system?

The placard at the show appears to be directly provided by the system's maker CASIC so its a rare piece of primary source that is likely more authoritative than the current sources.

Thanks for your time on this.

P.S. Source placard as mentioned:

https://www.sinodefenceforum.com/attachments/hq9be-jpg.100974/ Freedomv20 (talk) 08:34, 4 February 2023 (UTC)


 * The file is inaccessible which makes verification impossible. WP:SELFPUB reflected the source (enthusiast web forum) and was the only thing I could say about it.


 * Even if it were accessible, it doesn't change that it was not published by a reliable source. Images can be altered. A reliable source would - one way or another - vouch for the authenticity of the work. Even better, a reliable source would describe in prose what the image depicted (which, incidentally, would negate the need to reference the image directly.) An enthusiast web forum is not such a source.


 * And if the image is authentic, it's also a primary source which is not ideal. If it got past the above hurdle and were to be referenced directly, the best way to use it would be to add something to the article body along the lines of "CASIC advertises the missile to have a range of x." - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 09:43, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the explanation, I agree with your retraction now as it was indeed inappropriate of my edit to cite an access-restricted link. I won't take further actions on this article.
 * I also understand your points on source reliability and think they are valid. One lingering concern I have is going forward whether to treat other similar sources as sub-ideal in providing reference to headline specifications. AIUI, it is unlikely for in-service weapon systems to release indisputable evidence on their exact performances and brief brochures/spec sheets provided by the makers during exhibitions or other channels are likely among the most authoritative information one can reasonably expect in the public domain.
 * Here is a 3rd party hosting of the placard image for what the edit was intended with just for the time's worth: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52478797028_3715b88a92_k.jpg Freedomv20 (talk) 19:22, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Shenyang J-8
Hi, what's with all the massacre-denial by this IP range? They obviously aren't interested in a discussion, just pushing their POV. I thinking of approaching the admin who indefinitely protected the massacre article, and see if he can give some long-term semi-protection to the J-8 article. BilCat (talk) 18:54, 1 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Page protection couldn't hurt. My request for page protection was met with a single IP being blocked (Special:Diff/1141889675).


 * Looks like a borderline problem editor judging from the edits and edit comments (including another massacre removal from Aspide Special:Diff/1138873223, and messing with the designer field in the infobox on the old favorite CAIC Z-10 Special:Diff/1013605648.) It makes me wonder what else may have slipped by. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 22:23, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, my request met with the IP range being blocked for a week, which is better than nothing. If they show up on another range, or from registered users, then that would be block avoidance, and we might get it protected then. It's a process sometimes, but a range block will help.

You reverted the edits on the History of the administrative divisions of China (1912–1949) article.

Hi there. I have a question about this edit. I understand your removal of the source for the max speed of the J-10, but in your edit remove the non-RS, you also changed the numerical value to Mach 1.8 from Mach 2. It's not clear to me from your edit summary why you have changed that value, but maybe I've missed something? Do you have a source for that lower value, or why you changed it? --OuroborosCobra (talk) 23:47, 14 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I neglected to note that I was reverting this edit. 1.8 is the value that was there before. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 23:56, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Great! Thanks for the clarification. --OuroborosCobra (talk) 01:25, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

ROC on List of legislatures by number of members
When you reverted the edits of List of legislatures by number of members article in regards to ROC-Taiwan, it would appear the ROC's tricameral parliament still exists de jure at least nominally under the Constitution of the Republic of China. Presently in the Additional Articles of the Constitution of the Republic of China, only the Legislative Yuan remains. The National Assembly is suspended and the Control Yuan is only appointed by the President. It can be explained here: -76.68.77.224 (talk) 01:44, 15 March 2023 (UTC)


 * You should add the details to Government of the Republic of China. Make sure you use a proper reference (Help:Referencing for beginners), and reference by page numbers (Help:References and page numbers). - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:13, 15 March 2023 (UTC)


 * On further reflection, I strongly disagree with listing the ROC/Taiwanese parliament as tricameral. In my view, the list reflects the current forms of various parliaments/legislatures. For the ROC/Taiwan, that parliament is de jure unicameral via various constitutional amendments. The historical forms of the parliament do not belong in that list. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 04:41, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The unicameral is technically de facto under the Additional Articles. They have a sunset clause that abolishes it once the ROC regains mainland China in the event of the collapse of communist rule. You may able to revert or add some parts of it in case. Both the original and Additional Articles are separate Constitutional documents but the latter is only applied in Taiwan, while the original is meant for the whole country of China before the communists took over. TLDR: ROC's parliament is still tricameral at least nominally. Under the Additional Articles, the National Assembly is de facto suspended since 2005 and the Control Yuan hasn’t had elections de facto since 1993. Both houses continue to exist de jure. -76.68.77.224 (talk) 09:59, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

WP:NC-CN question.
As far as I know regarding the reverting the edits to China–Honduras relations, I don’t understand why did you revert it for no reason. Can you explain regarding WP:NC-CN? 174.89.100.7 (talk) 02:24, 29 March 2023 (UTC)


 * WP:NC-CN pretty much means that, unless there is going to be confusion, "China" means the PRC and "Taiwan" means the post-1949 ROC; the use of those terms are preferred due to WP:COMMONNAME. If there is confusion, that's where "PRC" and "ROC" become necessary.


 * For a year now (if not more) you have been substituting other terms for "China" and "Taiwan" when there was no need, using "China" when "Taiwan" was appropriate, and otherwise mangling other terms (for example: Special:Diff/1146788452; truncating "The People’s Republic of China" to "the People’s Republics" is egregious and it is not the first time you have done something like that for the term PRC.)


 * This just ties into the Taiwan POV-pushing you have been generally engaged in for the past year.


 * I have had - and continue to have - the misfortune of dealing with PRC POV-pushing. You have the dubious distinction of introducing me to the other side of the coin. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:45, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

It may not have been your intention, but one of your edits, specifically one that you made on Russia–European Union relations, may have been a change that some consider controversial. Due to this, your edits may have been reverted. When making possibly controversial changes, it is good practice to first discuss your edit on the article's talk page before making it, to gain consensus over whether or not to include the text, phrasing, etc. If you believe that the information you added was correct, please initiate that discussion. Thank you. 174.89.100.11 (talk) 10:43, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Outer Mongolia, you may be blocked from editing.

This needs to be improved rather than removing and reverting. -174.89.100.11 (talk) 01:13, 16 April 2023 (UTC)


 * You need to stop pushing WP:FRINGE views. Outer Mongolia stopped being a significant division after it was superseded by some version of independent Mongolia. The historical items you added to the infobox are really part of the latter's history, not the former.


 * It really seems like the hallmarks of your editing are POV-pushing, FRINGE, and original research. It's a repeat of Talk:List_of_legislatures_by_number_of_members all over again, where you inject your interpretation instead of considering what reliable sources are saying. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 01:37, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Being from another language Wikipedia does not automatically mean that it is appropriate or necessary to include it on the EN-lang Wikipedia. They - or the sources they use - are potential sources of content if their use is appropriate and/or desirable.


 * In this case, you are effectively duplicating, using less accessible non_english sources, the content of other articles like Mongolia–Taiwan relations, various versions of History of Mongolia, and articles about independent Mongolia, in an article that should just refer to other articles for post-1921 (or just about) history. The lede already, to an extent, does this. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:09, 16 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I also note that the Tibet Area (administrative division) article pretty much tries to do what I outlined. For example, the infobox seems to limit itself to periods of effective control (if that, hard to say in relation to the ROC and Tibet, but the infobox cuts the ROC year at 1951) or administrative existence (in the case of the PRC.) The history section doesn't try to duplicate, in full, either the history or political status of Tibet during/after the indicated period. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 02:43, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
 * But hey, Roving, if don't want to keep Outer Mongolia, do you want to delete or merge it with History of Mongolia? 174.89.100.11 (talk) 03:57, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

I did not have a high authority to prevent or know much about mechanism in Wikipedia regulations against such construct, so I presume that you might able to offer some help.

 * I'll keep an eye out. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 19:03, 25 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi RovingPersonalityConstruct, I understand that LVTW2 has requested for your assistance on matters of my edits. I would wish to bring to attention that LVTW2 requests for increased page protection (Requests for page protection/Increase) for pages that I have edited have been denied multiple times. Similarly, 2 reports made against me on Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring have also found no violations. Additionally, LVTW2 has a past history of edit warring (talk) which resulted in a 24 hour ban from editing Taiwan, on top of past uncivil behaviour here that seems to have violated WP:CIVIL.
 * I'm not sure why LVTW2 is so fixated on all my edits, but I do believe that unjustified allegations both past and present (including socketpuppetry) against me are unwarranted. I hope that this provides some additional perspective. FlameCelestial (talk) 13:56, 26 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I am not particularly interested in LVTW2's proverbial battle scars. Participate long enough and you get them. I have them; just read my talk page. What I am interested in is your edits, FlameCelestial.


 * First, per WP:NC-CN and WP:COMMONNAME, it is acceptable to refer to the PRC as "China". In Wikipedia usage, "mainland China" is used to describe a geographical area, not a polity; it is not interchangeable with China. That's why your edit to the military band article is unacceptable; that article is divided by polity. Also note that the COMMONNAME for the modern ROC is Taiwan (the island itself is under geography of Taiwan.)


 * Second: I can only guess why "Republic of China (Taiwan)" is used, but I suspect it is meant to highlight relevance to the modern form of the ROC, as opposed to the pre-1949 form. This strikes me as reasonable and so I see little value in going around changing them. If there are instances that do merit changing (for technical reasons like matters of presentation, cleaning up the prose, etc.) it should be to "Taiwan" (taking advantage of COMMONNAME) not to "Republic of China" (which is more ambiguous.) - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 15:35, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your explanation. While I do not have any qualms using "Taiwan" to refer to the geographical island, my concern is that adding the suffix "(Taiwan)" to "Republic of China" is a contentious grey area topic as it has a reputation of being used as a subtle ideological push for Taiwanese independence (which if I am not mistaken will be go against NPOV). Furthermore, considering that "(Taiwan)" somehow gets added into the same hyperlink as "Republic of China", it does create certain confusion that having the suffix is the official term. Hence, I am of the opinion that with regards to any political issue, the terms to be used should be PRC/ROC and for geographical issues, Mainland China/Taiwan. Nonetheless, I do admit that there are lots of topics that overlap between politics and geography and I am more than happy to discuss further with you (though I do not know if this is the appropriate place for it).
 * With regards to the military band article, since you mentioned that the article is divided by polity, would it be best to rename "China" to "People's Republic of China" to deconflict? I will not be making further edits till we reach a consensus here (to prevent edit warring). FlameCelestial (talk) 15:56, 26 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I admit that I don't have any strong opinion concerning POV where "Republic of China (Taiwan)" is concerned. But if it is a concern, my reaction would be to reduce to " Taiwan " on the basis of COMMONNAME. References to the island would use " island of Taiwan " if the context is unclear; I'm sure there are places where " Taiwan " is used because the context is clearly geographical.


 * This is just my take on it. It may be beneficial to ask the people over in WikiProject China and/or WikiProject Taiwan for additional guidance and perspective. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 04:29, 27 April 2023 (UTC)


 * As for the military band article, I'm inclined to leave it using the COMMONNAMEs. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 04:39, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Liberal Party of Canada
Your recent editing history at Liberal Party of Canada 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. 16:18, 10 May 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.91.94.122 (talk)

Zhao Ziyang Comments
Hey, so you said that Judd was the one making the claim and not the All-China Women’s Federation. While I’d like to hear your interpretation which led you to this view, I don’t necessarily disagree as it is not entirely clear from the text where Judd is drawing her information for this specific claim. However, in that case I question where Judd got this information from as she cites zero sources for this and is not a primary source witness. In addition, I have examined dozens of different papers at this point about Chinese Feminism which mention Ziyang, and none of these corroborate her claim with many painting Ziyang in a somewhat positive light. So if the only evidence for this exceptional claim is that Judd mentioned she thinks it happened offhand, then I feel that should not be sufficient for it to be stated as if it is a commonly accepted truth by general scholarship. But maybe I’m misunderstanding something? Thanks! Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 05:35, 15 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Taking a closer look, I think the problem goes a bit deeper. The text in the article synthesizes two points in Judd: the lack of women in high-level party leadership in the 1987 congress, and the women organizations attributing the loss of women in lower positions to Zhao's comments. Presenting the two points separately makes it clear that the matter of Zhao's comments comes from the organizations.


 * Taking a look at Zhao's quotation and the source, it's a stretch to say that Zhao "denied" anything without knowing what the question he was responding to was. It might be closer to the sources to just say something like "according to Zhao the lack of women was not the result of a change in party policy." - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 06:29, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I think I am fine with your second sentence here, I can see why one might see my wording as somewhat inaccurate, as Zhao was answering a newspaper at the time asking why there were no women in the congress, and never made any comments regarding the later 2002 allegations in Judd's paper. His point in the quote was not that he had not personally caused the lack of women, it was that the party had not, as the common narrative at the time was that the Dengist reform movement was sidelining women in a reaction to the Cultural Revolution, not Ziyang specifically. So I can see why you think my phrasing it as him denying Judd/ACWF's claim would be inaccurate, as it implies he was making a direct response, when my intention was more to indicate that the quote still served as a denial of Judd's later argument because he denied he had anything to do with the lack of women in the 13th Congress.
 * For the first sentence, I also kind of agree, but I've made some minor edits to your version of the sentence to make it flow a little better and for minor accuracy points. The main one was that you said various women's organizations including the ACWF made the claim about Zhao Ziyang lowering political participation, when I believe the original claim was that the ACWF made the claim that Zhao Ziyang lowered political participation in women's organizations. Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 16:41, 15 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I think the problem I have most with your revision is that it seems to be trying very hard to make a value judgement, which not only makes it very wordy but also starts falling afoul of MOS:CLAIM and WP:NPOV.


 * In addition, it tries to interpret the sources (possibly introducing WP:OR), which given this seems to a somewhat controversial subject, should be avoided. Like the part of Zhao's quotation that really should be retained in full (possibly modified for clarity, via MOS:BRACKET) is "doesn't mean [the party has] adjusted [its] policies on women." This is not the same thing as saying that there were no changes to party policy; he's neither saying that there were nor that there weren't, he merely suggests that to assume that there were changes and that those changes - if there were any - affected the elections is not necessarily correct. (It's like if I were to say: "The garbage bin caught on fire while I was standing beside it, but it doesn't mean that I did it." I'm not saying that I did it. I'm not saying that I did not do it. I'm saying that without further evidence, which may not exist or may not have been discovered, it is not appropriate to make a conclusion.)


 * The part about women's organizations and the ACWF comes from Judd so there's nothing wrong with what I had, so far as the sources being used are concerned.


 * Try to stick as closely as possible to the points in the sources. As Wikipedia editors, we're just here to say — as bluntly as concision and readability allow — that they said it, not to determine whether what was said is correct. We can always present alternate views, allowing for WP:WEIGHT and explicitly attributing content in the body text as necessary (like how I was using "according to..."). If it really does come to down to a value judgement that needs to be made on Wikipedia, then that should be hashed out before changes to the article is made. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 19:16, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Could you tell me which part makes you think it is making a value judgement? If I read through my edit and imagined myself as a totally ignorant viewer, I honestly feel like I'd think Ziyang was just lying and quite possibly was secretly misogynist, which is not the belief I personally hold. Like, the statement he's making that congress having zero female members is just a coincidence seems like a blatant lie. I obviously can't objectively roleplay as a bystander, but I'd be curious to know which parts gave you that impression.
 * Isn't saying the "party hasn't adjusted its policies on women" the same as saying "the party hasn't changed its policy regarding women"? It seems to me Ziyang isn't saying something like "I neither confirm nor deny a policy change", its more like, "We allowed women to run for election as normal and the fact there are none in congress is just because all of the female candidates who ended up running were coincidentally not elected".
 * Okay I checked back through Judd's writing, and it looks like I was just straight up wrong on women's organization claim so I concede that this is what she said and I'm fine with keeping it as part of the claim. On a personal level though, I feel like the fact she names none of these women's organizations or representatives of those women's organizations again points to my issue with such an exceptional claim having no corroborating secondary or primary sources to back it up. I'm fine with keeping the quote and all of the information, but I feel due to this lack of multiple sources for an exceptional claim, which is to my knowledge a required Wikipedia standard of Verifiability, we should allow readers to gleam a reasonable doubt of the information presented. My goal in the revisions was basically to give readers the idea that there's a decent chance Zhao Ziyang might have been misogynist but there is not conclusive evidence (which again is not my personal position).
 * Regardless, I'm not sure if you saw, but Horse Eye's Back ended up just reverting my edit all the way back to the original version from a few days ago, which I personally think is much more biased and incorrect than my latest edit. However, I think your latest edit is definitely acceptably accurate, and my revisions to it were mostly nitpicks, so if neither of you like my edits I'd be happy to accept yours rather than go back to the original claim. I'm not sure of your feelings, but to me the current wording of Horse Eye's Back's edit, which is the same as when he originally added Judd's claim in 2020 to the page, makes it seem as if the claim that Ziyang was openly against female political participation is an accepted and/or well evidenced claim being used to prove the allegations from the ACWF, when in reality they are from the same secondary source, and are almost certainly from the same or similar primary sources. Plus he says that the allegations being proven are that Zhao is attributed with causing the lack of women in the congress, when I think we have both agreed that Judd only says Zhao was associated with the lack of women in lower levels of the party due to his alleged open comments against female participation in politics. Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 23:18, 15 March 2024 (UTC)


 * For the "value judgement":


 * The wording (use of "claim".) Zhao's view is worded to be accepted uncritically, while the opposite was true for the women's orgs. But this could easily be corrected by just using the neutral "according to".
 * Kyung Ae Park includes the quotation rather than write "When asked about this, former General Secretary Zhao Ziyang replied that the results were not due to changes in party policy." I am wary of categorically and outright saying that ourselves if Kyung Ae Park - who I assume is/was an academic in good standing - saw fit not to say that themselves. That phrase "doesn't mean", in my mind, makes it unsafe to declare either way.


 * If I were revise things further, I'd cut down the Zhao part to just:

"The 13th Congress was also notable for the absence of women in the party leadership; according to Zhao, the election results "[didn't] mean [the party had] adjusted [its] policies on women.""


 * For Judd, I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt; I cursory Googling didn't turn up anything alarming concerning her academic credentials. The lack of primary sources for the passage in question would be due to the book being based on her own field work from the late-1980s. Saying that, to be on the safe side going back to something like what you had before would seem appropriate:

"According to Ellen Judd, women organizations, including the All-China Women's Federation, attributed the reduced number of women in lower party positions to Zhao's "open comments" against women's political participation."


 * I agree that Horse Eye's Back's revision is inadequate. Would you care to start a discussion on the article talk page? I think this may become a three-way thing. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 01:24, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * On the use of claim, while it was definitely not my intention to use terms with different connotations for either of the claims (I believe my thought process was more along the lines of making the sentences flow well), I can see your point and I’d be fine with using “according to”, though I do think the grammar of your original edit did feel somewhat awkward though not informationally incorrect.
 * For the Kyung Ae Park point, I kind of see what you’re getting at but I’m not entirely sure if your argument makes sense to me. I think in the context Park was originally using the quote for, she disagreed with Ziyang’s statement that there had been no change in policy, or at least in implicit policy (there had been no formal policy change but clearly the lack of women was not just a coincidence). On top of the fact that I think I’d agree with Park’s assessment, I also concur that we should not state what Ziyang said as if it were necessarily true, however in my edit from my pov I thought I had made it clear this was a statement of Ziyang’s rather than some like official Wikipedia position. While I agree with Park that Ziyang was in the quote either lying or naive, the reason I nonetheless included it was threefold. First, because I think it puts into doubt the claim that Ziyang was openly making statements (meaning publicly) saying that he opposed female political participation, as clearly regardless of actual beliefs the party line at that time was that the Communist Party supported Feminist struggle. Second, because Ziyang personally made a statement disagreeing with an idea presented in the article about him, I thought it would be proper to include it, just as I would think you’d want to put Nixon’s quote where he says he’s not a crook in a page on Richard Nixon. And third, I think his sentiment that he wished a woman had been elected but none were, better represents what Ziyang probably believed on women’s issues, that being he really didn’t want to stick his neck out in either direction, as his primary focus at least in the short term was furthering political and economic reform. But I’m probably willing to just include the whole thing as a quote rather than have any of it being explained in my own words if you prefer that, again I feel this is probably mostly just a stylistic disagreement.
 * For your proposed edit, I do feel the other half of the quote is kind of important in the context of the broader debate, as whereas right now you only show Ziyang saying that the party is still feminist, the part about wishing women were in the party implies more that he’s stating what his personal belief is (or at least what he thinks is acceptable/beneficial to say his personal beliefs are to newspapers). It also is distinct because just the part you included seems more like he’s clarifying a procedural detail, that the official party platform had not been updated, whereas in the full quote he’s claiming all of the party leadership wished more women had run for election. It’s basically the distinction between simply not breaking with tradition and actively supporting said tradition.
 * I do agree with your statements on Judd. I tried to do my own research on Judd to see if she seemed to have any biases or issues with her records, and while I couldn’t find much in general, I don’t think I believe Judd was actually lying or anything here. I do have a lot more I’d like to say on this specific issue, but in order to not waste your time I won’t ramble about my thoughts here since I basically agree with you. So yeah I’d be happy with keeping my previous edit of that part if you have no objections.
 * I’d be happy to open a topic on the Zhao Ziyang talk page in reference to this. Edit: Which I have now done. Eternal Blue Sky (talk) 02:28, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I made some edits to the PLA, the PLA is not the armed forces, it is a part of the armed forces. It is the armed wing of the chinese communist party 158.223.122.211 (talk) 16:17, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Special:Diff/1214854349 - Note that the previous edit says that the PLA is the "the principal armed forces of the Chinese Communist Party". This seems true; the last edit to that sentence (Special:Diff/1178831294) explains the rationale for it. Your edit rationale completely misses what was said; it did not say that the PLA is the armed forces of China.


 * This is not the first time that you have failed to comprehend what was being said before making an edit.

 * You are attempting to address something that is unrelated to what the current revision of PLA is saying.
 * * The text in PLA is not about whether or not the PLA is the armed wing of the CCP.
 * * The text in PLA is not about whether or not the PLA is the principal military force of China.
 * * The text in PLA is not about whether or not the PLA is the only military force of China.
 * The text, as written, is about whether or not the PLA is the main/principle armed force under the control of the CCP. If you had bothered to follow the links in my previous post (Special:Diff/1178831294) — which I suspect that you did not — you will note that the comment for that edit points out that the PLA is indeed not the only armed force under the CCP's control.
 * In other words, the existing revision is fine. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 19:09, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

PLA unit grade
First, a million thanks for adding the grade system part to the PLA article. I've been working on a general article for the whole grade system in my sandbox, but I have a problem: what the hell do I call it? There is no agreed translation in the professional literature, and stuff such as "leader grade", "unit grade" "unit level", "leadership level" can all be found. The problem is that the concept is "unit grade that will give its leader a grade when appointed" can be interpreted as a unit issue (so you see translations as "sub-corps" unit) or a leadership issue (So it should be "corps-deputy-leader unit".

As I am trying to give the grade to all the PLA and PAP units that don't have it in the en wiki (the majority), it's kind of an issue. I'd appreciate your input.

Another thing, for someone more experienced than me, is there a way to change the military unit template to allow a slot for unit grade? Useless for other countries' armed forces, but important for the PRC.

--Arrorro (talk) 09:49, 8 June 2024 (UTC)


 * My exposure to the topic and relevant literature is limited, so I'm not familiar with the variations of terminology. My first thought would be to use grades like ranks. So saying that, here my half-baked thoughts:


 * Article title
 * Something like "Grades of the armed forces of China" (that would be like other titles which seemed based on WP:PRECISION). I don't know if there is a formal term that might be used instead.


 * Referring to grades
 * Avoid - where possible - using "grade" when referring to grades by name.
 * "Bob is a deputy division leader and colonel in the..." / "Bob was promoted to deputy division leader in..."
 * "The 123th Unit is a deputy division leader organization..."
 * "Organization" could be a good substitute qualifier for "unit", and could be used for nearly everything that's not a position/office/billet or person (various departments, universities, etc.) Maybe even for ships?
 * Handling organization "promotions"/"demotions" could get a bit wordier:
 * "The 123th Unit upgraded to deputy division leader in..."
 * "The 123th Unit upgraded to a deputy division leader organization in..."
 * "The 123th Unit's grade changed to deputy division leader in..."
 * "The commander of the 123th Unit is a deputy division leader office..."


 * I've never had to request a template modification before. Start a discussion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history (the template's parent project) about adding grades to the template. I think that adding a new field may not be best option given the limited wider application; I would find adding grades through another field, like type, attractive. But start the discussion and see where it goes. If there is support for template modifications, then make the request on Template talk:Infobox military unit with a link to the discussion. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 21:30, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
