User talk:S0793217

Welcome!
Hello, S0793217, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:36, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Women in Red
Hi there, S0793217, and welcome to Women in Red. It's always good to have members from WikiEdu. I see you have already made many constructive additions to existing women's biographies. When you feel like creating biographies yourself, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 10:26, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Misuse of talk pages
Wikipedia is not a soapbox. No matter what you "think" of something, unless you can provide reliable sources to support your stance regarding the "truth" of something, then that's irrelevant. Talk page discussions should be kept focused on improving the article: and without reliable sources, you can't really improve an article. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 01:17, 7 April 2022 (UTC)


 * You have  no  reliable sources. You have allegations that the media pushes with no expert opinions or even an investigation, you have lies, and all that is 'protected' and not allowed to be edited. You are correct, though-- Wikipedia is not a soapbox-- it is a dumpster of poorly sourced propagandist beliefs. Cheers, S0793217 (talk) 01:27, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * WP:RS defines what reliable sources are. If the "media" all say the same thing (and heck, if even China and India condemn the massacres), then that is what is "true" for the purposes of Wikipedia. See WP:VNT. If they're all wrong, well, too bad, that's not Wikipedia's problem at that stage. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 01:31, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * A reliable source of information would be a report from an investigation of potential war crimes by the International Criminal Court, for instance. Which is why nothing, until an investigation has taken place, can be interpreted as 'facts'. Wikipedia is not a place for sensational news stories. S0793217 (talk) 01:40, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * That's not what "reliable" means on Wikipedia. Reliable means "has a reputation for accurate fact-checking and not spreading misinformation". Most news sources (except maybe those on either extreme, which have a reputation for partisanship and sensationalism over accuracy) fit this definition.

Controversial topic area alert
—  Newslinger  talk   03:11, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

April 2022
Please stop your disruptive editing. 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 Ribbon of Saint George, you may be blocked from editing. —  Newslinger  talk   03:13, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Ribbon of Saint George. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and 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. —  Newslinger   talk   03:13, 7 April 2022 (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.

Hi S0793217! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor&#32;at Ribbon of Saint George 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. —  Newslinger  talk   03:19, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
