Speedy deletion nomination of Concert Properties
Hello X-Editor,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Concert Properties for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

An extended welcome
Hi X-Editor. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 16:48, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Concert Properties, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Development ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Concert_Properties check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Concert_Properties?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar 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) 11:12, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

Stub tags
Please note that stub goes right at the end of an article -see WP:ORDER. Putting it anywhere else makes life harder for stub-sorters. Thanks. Pam D  23:24, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

A page you started (Mount Dennis (disambiguation)) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Mount Dennis (disambiguation), X-Editor!

Wikipedia editor Animalparty just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

"Please note that disambiguation pages should only list things that have the same name and are thus likely to be confused, not titles that are merely similar to each other or are partial title matches. The articles Mount Dennis and Mount Denson do not need disambiguation from each other. Also, disambiguation pages should have only one link per bullet point, so that the reader is quickly and accurately conveyed to the correct page. I've removed improper titles, and since this only disambiguates two articles (Mount Dennis is the primary topic, Mount Dennis station is the only other article which might realistically be called 'Mount Dennis'), I will nominate this page for speedy deletion, since it functionally duplicates the hatnote at Mount Dennis."

To reply, leave a comment on Animalparty's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mount Dennis (disambiguation)


A tag has been placed on Mount Dennis (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
 * disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. --Animalparty!

Why Revert a valid edit on LoTT page?
Dear X-Editor I see you reverted a valid edit I just completed - reorganizing content based on flow and structure as well as adding a comment to editors that the "teachers were fired" statement is dangerous and should be either fully verified using a reliable source, or removed. Just because there's a media article saying that someone says that someone was fired because of this account's posting, doesn't make it true. Yes, it's true that someone said someone said someone got fired.... but unless there is proof, it does not belong in an encyclopedic article. I'm curious as to your rationale for reverting the edit since you did not list one in your edit summary. I did not remove the statement but added an editor-only invisible comment so someone with actual verifiable content could add it..... why revert this non-controversial edit? Addressing it would improve the article. Best,  The Real Serena Joy Talk  23:16, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
 * You deleted a paragraph in the last section, which is why I reverted your edit. Go ahead and fix the grammar again. X-Editor (talk) 23:32, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

Nomination of Sunnybrook Stable Fire for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Sunnybrook Stable Fire 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/Sunnybrook Stable Fire until a consensus is reached, and anyone 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. Quek157 (talk) 11:13, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I withdrawn the nomination since you had added all info, I turned it into a redirect. I hope you can expand on things rather than one article, the park itself is not defensible per WP:ROTM and WP:GNG already FYI. --Quek157 (talk) 12:42, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

HEY
Listen, I understand your saying, but honestly. Your making it very difficult for me to enjoy Wikipedia now. I hope your satisfied with the deletion, but know that people who word comments so rudely that it puts a bad rep on the wiki. I don't even like the game! It was just fun to make an article that was a W.I.P!!!! So thanks, also real original name :( Timwardo (talk) 16:42, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Please calm down, I am not trying to be mean to you. I'm just pointing out that your edits were uncyclopedic as metioned in the AFD. Also, the article is getting deleted because there are not enough independent, reliable, secondary sources for it to be on this website, see the nominator's comment on the AFD page for more information. Also, complaining over your edits getting deleted and articles getting deleted is just not worth it. Please listen to what other people have to say before you get mad at people like me. Three of my articles were deleted, but did I whine and complain about it? No, instead, I looked at their point of view and understood why they were doing what they were doing. Wikipedia has rules, and if you don't like them, then leave. Also, you insulting me for wording myself rudely is very hypocritical because you insulted me as well at the end of your comment by making fun of my username. Please do not leave bad faith comments like the ones you left and attack others just because they deleted your edits or articles. If you want to act like that, then this website is not for you. Again, i'm not trying to be rude. X-Editor (talk) 18:10, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:Jimmy Wales are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. ''See User:Jimbo Wales on how to contact him. An article talk page is not suitable for this.'' 5 albert square (talk) 14:28, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

I suggest leaving the stuff by the commas like other Wikipedia articles have them sorted. It baffles me how people use their own Wikipedia pages to look indifferent from others, when that is not the case. Administrators need to check it first. Zacharyalejandro (talk) 07:22, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * You are assuming that I said that I am the creator of the article to make it seem as if I am indifferent, but that's not the case. I only said I was the creator because I wanted you to take what I was saying seriously and because I want the article I created to not have any uncited claims. However, I will take your suggestion above about the use of commas and I am sorry for the mistake I made in the article. X-Editor (talk) 19:26, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, this comment you left in the edit history,"READ THE REFERENCES BELOW! We don't need multiple same sources when we have multiple sources already stated in one of the paragraphs. Don't use br and /br crap when adding genres." is extremely rude and would likely violate WP:Civil. If you are going to argue with someone on Wikipedia, please refrain from swearing.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Gab (social network); that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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. Softlavender (talk) 18:28, 23 January 2019 (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.
 * I started a consensus on the talk page of the article and the people there seem open to chnaging the text in the lead to more accurately reflect the sources, so I don't think any of the editors really disagree. Thanks for the warning though! X-Editor (talk) 18:34, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Do you have a conflict of interest?
Hi, X. Are you personally, or financially related to Gab, or Andrew Torba in any way? If so, you must declare it. Undisclosed paid editing is a serious violation of our policies. If not, feel free to ignore or remove this post. Thank you. <span style="font-family:'Lato',sans-serif;color:#DC143C">Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 07:07, 2 March 2019 (UTC)

It looks like you must respond to COI inquiries and cease editing immediatly until you have done so. Sorry for the confusion. I'll leave the detailed notice below. <span style="font-family:'Lato',sans-serif;color:#DC143C">Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 08:19, 2 March 2019 (UTC) Hello X-Editor. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Gab (social network), but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:X-Editor. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. <span style="font-family:'Lato',sans-serif;color:#DC143C">Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 08:19, 2 March 2019 (UTC)

Using edit summaries
It's generally a good practice to fill in edit summaries for every single edit, so please consider doing so. Even simple ones like "ce" (copyedit) or "expand from XX source", etc, will help. It'd be a courtesy for other editors as well. And also please make sure edit summaries are accurate for the nature of the edit. Details may be found here.

Final warning on Gab (social network)
Even after May 26 warning to you about your longterm disruptive editing on Gab, you are still quoting Torba , still adding misinformation , still removing or changing sources without explanation , , still adding unnecessary clutter to the article , , , still editing promotionally , still edit-warring , and still failing to use edit summaries ,. Every single edit you make has to be carefully checked by an experienced editor, and is usually reverted or massively corrected. This is your final warning. I advise you to voluntarily absent yourself from Gab (social network) before you are officially topic banned from it. Softlavender (talk) 06:15, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Hello, X-Editor,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username John B123 and I thank you for your contributions.

If you wish to restore a page deleted via a deletion discussion, please use the deletion review process instead, rather than reposting the content of the page.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion] but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

Standard Noticification

 * What past disruption have I done in the COVID-19 topic area? I'm confused. X-Editor (talk) 21:47, 30 March 2021 (UTC)


 * That is a standard notification and as such just says you've have shown interest. That said some of your recent article at a glance may be concerning including your recent good faith article Vaccine-Induced Prothrombotic Immune Thrombocytopenia which violated MEDRS.  I have removed your link Oxford–AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine because of that concern.  What happens here will not be down to me but what is within the bounds of consensus, general sanctions and in my estimation any forthcoming announcements from the EMA who are on the case.

Corrected edits on Unite the Right rally
, letting you know I made a few corrections to your recent edit of Unite the Right rally. Specifically, I made the following corrections: Kimdorris (talk) 08:01, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) Restored original WP:HN that had been removed;
 * 2) Removed spurious citation acting as WP:HN;
 * 3) Created named H:RTAG for shortened paragraph you added summarizing joint Bush statement condemning racism, etc. in Reactions > Political Responses; and
 * 4) Added named H:RTAG to longer version of joint Bush statement in Reactions > President Trump's statements > Third statement.
 * I had no idea I accidentally removed another piece of text. I apologize. X-Editor (talk) 12:33, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

I've somewhat IAR in removing your comment on Talk:Palmer Report, so if you restore it I understand (and won't remove it again). However, the Palmer Report's Twitter account (and followers) are watching that talk page and would probably love to go into a protracted discussion around whether Wikipedia and its editors can be sued (both have been in the past, by the way), and I really think it's best we keep that talk page focused on improving the article rather than feeding the Twitter chaos.

Megan Ming Francis moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Megan Ming Francis, is not suitable as written to remain published. It does not show notability according to WP:PROF. One book is not enough for notability. If there are other publications, please add them. 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.  DGG ( talk ) 09:09, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
 * How does the article not meet WP:PROF? Also, she is a Senior Democracy Fellow at the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation, Racial Justice Fellow at the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, and a former research fellow at the Thurgood Marshall Institute at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. These are several fellowships to notable organizations. Does that meet criteria 3? X-Editor (talk) 14:56, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I did a quick Google News search and was able to find four independent reliable sources discussing her. Would this be enough to meet criteria 1? X-Editor (talk) 15:14, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
 * As a reviewer, I do not decide on notability --rather,Draft is just a screen, to predict whether it is likely that the community would consider the subject to be notable at an AfD discussion. The intention is to prevent an article from being rejected at afd, when it can be improved first.
 * The standards are not my own personal preference, but the ones the community uses in making decisions at WP:AFD, the deletion discussions. I work a good deal with articles on academic faculty, so I'm familiar with the ones for WP:PROF. The fellowships referrred to at WP:PROF are such honors as being a Fellow of the Royal Society, or the National Academy of Sciences, and a few of similar prestige.; not an award or appointment that is called a fellowship, because that's the term usuallly used for any graduate or postgraduate scholarship. The publication standard can be met by book or journal articles. For books, what is usually asked for is at least two books by major academic presses, which are well reviewed and widely held in libraries/ Her book, Civil Rights ... was published by Cambridge University Press, an extremely important academic publisher, and would certainly count as one of them/. Two others are mentioned that she is working on--if they are published by a comparable publisher, they would easily meet the standard when the appear.    The expectation for journals depends on the  subject, but it's  usually its 2 or 3 papers each with over 100 citations in google scholar or equivalent. I see two papers with 65 and 41 -- this might do it in this area, especially because of the discussion in Yale Journal of Law & the Humanities, Vol. 31, Iss. 2 ], Art. 10   where the editors say "In 2019, Megan Ming Francis published a path-breaking article" referring to The Price of Civil Rights: Black Lives, White Funding, and Movement Capture, .   (interesting work, by the way, sas you can see by the detailed look I'm giving it)

What I suggest is that you add the 2 Most cited journal articles -- this one and Black politics and the neoliberal racial order, add a book review or two for the book, and let me know on my user talk p. and I'll take care of it as an admin DGG ( talk ) 19:47, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

PewDiePie and pescetarianism
Hi,

I'm just wondering what source you would consider as reliable? I'm a bit confused as to how Dexerto isn't reliable as they have a sizable online following, even surpassing some sources on the article in Twitter followers (i.e the Humanist). I know having a superior Twitter following isn't a guaranteed source for reliability, but I certainly don't think Dexerto is unreliable.

Thanks PokeFan10025 (talk)
 * There hasn't been much discussion about Dexerto, but when I brought it up, the conclusion seemed to be that it is unreliable. If you want to start another discussion, feel free to post about Dexerto on WP:RSN. X-Editor (talk) 15:03, 2 September 2021 (UTC)


 * In fairness, the post is two years old and some of its criticisms, like the lack of a staff page, has since been created. Additionally, Finance Yahoo mentioned them in an article earlier this year as an 'industry leading site (in) award-winning esports, gaming and influencer coverage, including news, interviews, reviews, opinions, guides and tournament coverage' here: I presume Yahoo is reliable, so surely their mentioning of Dexerto is notable?
 * The post I made about Dexerto is old, which is why I suggested you start a new discussion at WP:RSN. X-Editor (talk) 17:03, 2 September 2021 (UTC)


 * So it turns out a separate Dexerto discussion was posted last month and the consensus remains that it's unreliable. With that said, I also began looking into using direct YouTube links as a source, and unless I've understood incorrectly, it's okay to use provided that it's from an 'official' primary source. I admit that the YouTube link I posted isn't the best but he has mentioned his pescetarianism multiple times in videos before, so if I find one that is clear, concise and irrefutable, would that be acceptable to use as a source?
 * I would suggest going to the talk page of Pewdiepie's Wiki page to get consensus on if it's okay to use a primary source to back up that particular claim. X-Editor (talk) 03:45, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

Gab
Dear X-Editor, I’m not sure if you are responsible for the Gab Wiki. You are the reason free speech is dying. How can Gab be responsible for anything it’s users post? That is ridiculous. Gab is a platform, not big brother or almighty god. Users post at their own risk. Saying that they were responsible for that capital crap, or for anything else is 100% insane. Read the 1st amendment one of these days. It’s the only reason you get to do what you do, regardless of how you feel. Next time you want to edit anything on here please leave your personal feelings out of it. This site should only be facts, not human misinterpretation.
 * What I've written in that article is based on what reliable sources have to say about Gab. If there is anything specific in the article that you don't agree with, feel free to leave a comment on the talk page of the article here.

Mass Killings AFD
Saw your entry there. I agree with your assessment. This feels like a habitual white wash attempt by a few motivated editors. It does seem to have hit mainstream consciousness though so I expect it to be very busy.

PS, I loled about the comment earlier about your political bias.

MKuCR
Please, self-revert this. First, "repressions" (with a reference to Wheatcroft) is not in the article anymore, and it contradicts to Weathcroft's own opinion:
 * " This is simply wrong. The main point of my 1996 article was not to make easy overall moral judgments about the Nazis and the Soviets in general, but to try to look at the terror, repression and mass killing in a more objective manner. I wanted to unpack these terms of their different components and then to analyse their specifics to provide a basis for further serious work.3 Instead of using general words like 'terror', 'repression', and even 'holocaust' and 'Gulag' I proposed talking directly about specific things, about killings, exile, imprisonment, ..."( Europe-Asia Studies, Nov., 2006, Vol. 58, No. 7 (Nov., 2006), pp. 1141-1147)

Second, noone called MKuCR "Holocaust", but many people raise a concern that comparing Communist mass killings with the Holocaust is the Holocaust obfuscation. Please, remove this b/s from the lead, I would like to avoid conflicts. Paul Siebert (talk) 03:27, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

In regards to this, the problem is that the article is supposed to be a general discussion of Communism as a whole a la The Black Book of Communism, which is why 's calls to rely on country experts, the only way to fix the NPOV issue about the events and their summaries, has been rejected but the problem is not Siebert or anyone else but the article's structure that is wrong in reverse. This [the article's structure] is, in itself, a NPOV problem because majority of scholarly sources discuss each country separately. It is not sufficient that the country was nominally a Communist state. If they are discussed together, there must be a clear connection. According to Dallin (the father of modern Sovietology), not a random Wikipedian editor like me, even the authors of The Black Book of Communism did not provide a connection or explanation to lump them together. Yet, that is exactly what we do too in that article. The only possible topic is discussing not the events, for which we already have plenty of articles about them not individually but also in each country's history pages, but the theories about them as a grouping. Since some theories do the grouping, that is acceptable. Davide King (talk) 13:39, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I didn't know relying on country experts was ruled out. Thanks for letting me know. X-Editor (talk) 15:22, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Indeed, that is why I think we cannot write a NPOV article about it (especially C) because to fix NPOV, we must rely on country experts (majority) for A and genocide scholars (minority) for B, but the latter are totally ignored by the former, and their weight status is confirmed by the fact that one side (genocide) rely on other (country experts), while the other (genocide) acts in isolation or is ignored.1 Yet, by trying to fix NPOV issue this way, we engage in OR/SYNTH because country scholars write in a totally different context and as a result tell two very different stories; they give much more focus to societal context and background rather than Marx or communism, as is done by Rummel.
 * I do not know how one can look at genocide/mass killing scholarship and come out thinking that Communism is their main focus.2 There is also a difference between finding a correlation, which is perfectly in line for B, and acting as though those scholars treat Communism as a separate topic, when they discuss it (Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot) as part of mass killings in general, hence my proposal to discuss them at Mass killings in history (akin Genocides in history) rather than grouping them them by ideology, geography, language, regime type, whatever, if that is clearly not what majority of sources do; there is no academic work titled Communist Mass Killings, Communist mass killings are discussed, like any other categories, in general works about the topic. We rightly do not have an Ethnic mass killings as a separate category, which is a subtype, alongside Communist mass killings, of dispossessive mass killing (the other major category is coercive mass killing) according to Valentino's theory.3
 * Notes
 * 1. I do not think that the fact they have a different scope is a good enough excuse to justify their lack of weight. Consider also that genocide scholars write in their own academic journals, rather than mainstream political science journals, hence are isolated (Verdeja 2012).
 * 2. It is Final Solutions: Mass Killing and Genocide in the 20th Century, not Final Solutions: Mass Killing and Genocide under Communist Regimes; The Dark Side of Democracy: Explaining Ethnic Cleansing, not The Dark Side of Communism: Explaining Ethnic Cleansing; Purify and Destroy: The Political Uses of Massacre and Genocide, not Purify and Destroy: The Communist Uses of Massacre and Genocide; and Why Not Kill Them All?: The Logic and Prevention of Mass Political Murder, not Why Not Kill Them All?: The Logic and Prevention of Communist Mass Murders. Can one truly look at their own publisher's synopsis and tell me that Communism (by which I mean Communism as a whole, which is the article's current scope) is their main focus, and were not cherry picked and synthesized? They are for B, not A or C.
 * 3. Straus 2007, p. 116: "'Valentino identifies two major types, each with three subtypes. The first major type is 'dispossessive mass killing,' which includes (1) 'communist mass killings' in which leaders seek to transform societies according to communist principles; (2) 'ethnic mass killings,' in which leaders forcibly remove an ethnic population; and (3) mass killing as leaders acquire and repopulate land. The second major type of mass killing is 'coercive mass killing,' which includes (1) killing in wars when leaders cannot defeat opponents using conventional means; (2) 'terrorist' mass killing when leaders use violence to force an opposing side to surrender; and (3) killing during the creation of empires when conquering leaders try to defeat resistance and intimidate future resistance.'"

Content mirroring
Howdy! Thanks for your help working on Libs of TikTok and Taylor Lorenz. One thing I'll note is to be wary of mirroring content directly between the two articles as there is content in Libs of TikTok that is not suitable for the Lorenz bio. Cheers, SiliconRed (he/him) (talk) 17:28, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

 * To be honest, I'm not sure that this controversy merits a section in The Washington Post -- the content seems to be given WP:UNDUE weight as the controversy is largely around the Twitter account and the article author, not the newspaper (WP doesn't add a controversy section every time a publisher issues a statement about an article). You might consider removing that content for now and instead including it as a suggestion on the talk page for further discussion. SiliconRed (he/him) (talk) 17:44, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

X-Editor, it appears that in this edit, you have severely misread the ABC News source you provided. You wrote that local police  with investigations. In fact, ABC News says that the claim of non-cooperation came from unnamed law enforcement sources, and that the local police did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Undid revision 1093521865 by Pdogtreefrog (talk) Did you read my edit reverting the content? Only one review really expresses this view and goes way off topic from the doc
My apologies I didn't realize there had been a review after I published and did miss the initial note. I would have definitely not republished the same version without some discussion - though I don't think there is a set of references available so far for me to add that here as a reaction or as a controversy section (which would be a more appropriate place anyway).

I agree only Jason Whitlock's review called out the disconnect directly or in a similar fashion as the additional context and reference I used to supplement that critique. However, The Catholic World Report and The Catholic Weekly reviews make a similar critique of the documentary lacking a Christian perspective on the gender identity question. Essentially references 29-32 along with Whitlock's all offer praise before making a critique of it's lack of a christian-based framing or in some way missing an opportunity to approach the topic in a way that is more aligned or beneficial to some Christian ideology. Ironically The Christian Post where he gave the interview I cited where he was admonishing the adoption of secular and academic positions over that of their faith is the only religious organizations review that didn't articulate some level of criticism due to a lack of Christian connotation - which should be a reliability issue were it not a reaction reference.

I'll take a look to see if there are any credible articles that connect the contradiction in any way that would be appropriate in an encyclopedic context. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pdogtreefrog (talk • contribs) 06:18, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of YouTube Vanced


The article YouTube Vanced has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "The poor sourcing indicates a lack of notability. A few internet hits indicate it existed, but that's about it."

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.

X-Editor, I've been meaning to mention this to you for a while. I really appreciate that you take criticism/challenges to your edits so well. I know a few times I've reverted an edit you made and I've seen when other editors have done the same.

Planned Parenthood v. Casey
What is your "not necessary" logic on the deletion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Avica1998 (talk • contribs) 20:03, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The section on the overturn doesn't have to feature the entire explanation from the supreme court regarding why they made the decision. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, we are here to summarize events, not provide full explanations. X-Editor (talk) 20:07, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Not my intent. The article spends a great deal of space analyzing the state decisis analysis, the viability of the fetus construct and the undue burden standard. All of those are now in the dustbin of history, along with the Dred Scot decision, Plessy v Ferguson and the Rubix cube. I will insert notes into each of those sections that refer back to the overruling authority of the recent opinion. That low-key enough for you? Avica1998 (talk) 20:18, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * True, but nowhere in the article did it repeat verbatim such a large explanation from the supreme court or any court. X-Editor (talk) 20:20, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * That was just from the first 8 pages! Its a 78 page opinion. I'll be concise. Avica1998 (talk) 20:21, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * 8 pages is still excessive. Try making it about one paragraph. X-Editor (talk) 20:25, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't mean to imply that the update should be 8 pages. The syllabus of the new opinion is 8 pages. The actual opinion is 76 pages. It is certainly more relevant to the article than a Politico story about a leak of a draft opinion, which is moot now and probably should be removed. A paragraph summarizing how that new opinion addresses the Casey Court's findings is succinct enough, but absent using actual language from the Court it opens things up to allegations of "opinion," "bias", etc. So, the Court's language can be confined to the notes section and can be selectively illustrative. In actuality, the aforementioned sections should be rewritten from a historical perspective and be about as brief as the update. But you know what happens if someone does that.

 * Looks can be deceiving. The amount of verbatim quotes from the original Casey court in this article is staggering. There are two columns of Notes as is: one is solely from "The O'Connor, Kennedy, and Souter plurality opinion section" and the other from the Dobbs opinion. I may revisit the "Upholding the "essential holding" in Roe," "Stare decisis analysis," "Viability of the fetus", "The undue burden standard" and "Key Judgment" sections at a later date.

Reverse racism
Greetings. I've removed the text you added to Reverse racism citing Dictionary.com. A dictionary like this is not an especially valuable source in an article that isn't specifically about a word or phrase. Thank you. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 04:17, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Would you mind explaining what you mean by "specifically about a word or phrase." What articles would qualify under that umbrella and how does the reverse racism article not? Would you also mind explaining why it is UNDUE? Would be nice if you could clarify these things. X-Editor (talk) 05:07, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The material you added was WP:UNDUE because the most authoritative sources on the topic do not focus on individual prejudice. Most Wikipedia articles, including Reverse racism, are about concepts, things, people, places, etc., not words or phrases, which are found in Category: words and phrases. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 09:21, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Thanks for explaining. X-Editor (talk) 19:48, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Changes to Lede at Michael Shellenberger
Hi,

Look, I'm not going to revert the changes to the lede again because this is quickly becoming an edit war. I'm not objecting to your sourced additions to the page, and I'm not claiming WP:Ownership.

All that I am asking you to do is follow WP:BRD when it comes to the language in the article's lede. The language there has been discussed many times by multiple editors, and the language was agreed upon previously. Thus, it makes sense to discuss there before drastically changing specifically agreed upon language, especially once you've been reverted multiple times, again, per WP:BRD.

If you'd like to go to WP:NPOV/V, then be my guest, but I'm not asking you to remove sourced content, and I'm not reverting your sourced additions to the body of the article. I simply stated that these sections are ballooning quickly; however, that's not really the crux of the issue and the wording can be revised and edited at a later date, either by other users or through productive conversations on the article's talk page. Right now, I'm simply asking you to follow WP:BRD policy when it comes to the lede, rather than hashing out disagreements via editing diffs.

--Hobomok (talk) 01:14, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I think it would be better to discuss on the talk page and go over the additions to the lede one by one. Sorry for edit warring. I won't take this to WP:NPOVN just yet. X-Editor (talk) 01:17, 29 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I agree, and no problem at all, this system is imperfect and a lot can get lost in the chaos of revising. That said, I think it would make the most sense to revert the lede to its originally agreed upon state, and then we can all work from there. Does that make sense? I'm not going to do that, because I don't want to revert again, so I'll leave it up to you. From there we can work collaboratively, with other editors, to improve the lede. --Hobomok (talk) 01:24, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for being understanding. I've reverted to lede back for now so we can discuss. X-Editor (talk) 01:27, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

BLPs
Trust me. It's a frustrating process to bring NPOV to the Donald Trump page. GoodDay (talk) 17:21, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Agreed, but I was actually partly wrong about what the reliable sources say on his remarks. X-Editor (talk) 18:57, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 01:03, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

3RR
If I'm counting right, you just passed 3RR at the Lorenz article. I recommend a self-revert. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 19:36, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I’ll self-revert if you revert the edit yourself afterwards, the text added is mostly badly sourced and badly formatted. Actually, some of the info being added by the user now doesn’t seem too bad, but it makes sense to discuss on the talk first. X-Editor (talk) 20:04, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I did intend to redo the reversion. I have now done so. Sorry I messed up your latest "fixes" edit. I assume the changes were all to the content I removed. Thanks for the self-revert. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 20:10, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You’re welcome. X-Editor (talk) 20:12, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

Removal of content at List of people killed for being transgender
I disagree with your removal of cited content, and your subsequent reversion to remove it a second time. I have started a WP:BRD discussion at Talk:List of people killed for being transgender. I have pinged you in that discussion. This is a courtesy note in case you miss, or do not accept, pings. 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 07:32, 4 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for both restoring the content and for your participation in the discussion. I have responded cordially to you there. 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:28, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Again, thank you. I am a little concerned about the number of comments on this page that are to do with possible edit warring. Is there any need for me to be concerned? Is there any help and advice that you feel would be useful to you? I'd far rather that no such comments appeared again and that you enjoy being a Wikipedian. The difficulty you face is that such comments will inevitably be acted upon by someone who might start to give you formal warnings that may lead to restrictions to your editing privileges. 🇺🇦  Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I've abandoned the latest edit war, so I don't think anything is going to happen to me from that. I think I should discuss more on talk pages instead to solve disputes. X-Editor (talk) 23:05, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Talk pages are the way to go. This means that good has come out of our meeting. We all learn all the time. Thank you for being amenable to it. The best editors here have made some of the worst mistakes early on, so you are in great company 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:26, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I appreciate the encouragement. X-Editor (talk) 23:36, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * If I can be of some help in the future, you know where to find me. The only thanks I ask for are to pay kindness forwards when you find someone else who may be having difficulties 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:49, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks again. X-Editor (talk) 00:37, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

July 2022
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on The Kashmir Files. 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. Kautilya3 (talk) 09:42, 4 July 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.

Gamergate is under 1RR
You've reverted more than once. - ForbiddenRocky (talk) 23:48, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I apologize and I wasn't aware of that being the case. I'll keep that in mind from now on. X-Editor (talk) 23:49, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
 * The alert for the 1RR is at the very top of the page. With the DS warning, also. - ForbiddenRocky (talk) 10:32, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Your edit at What Is a Woman? looks like original research a pov misuse of the source
Sure, fair use can be appropriate, but adding it there without a source directly connecting it to the film, no. It was an inappropriate comment. Doug Weller talk 15:20, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Nope, the source says "Images posted to public profiles on social media are often considered "fair use," meaning that they can be reposted elsewhere without permission. There are various factors to consider, however. Instagram’s terms include an explanation of such factors, which include whether the content is transformed or used for commercial purposes, in which case it may not be deemed "fair use."" X-Editor (talk) 20:40, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * My edit was reverted again anyways, but I don't really care. X-Editor (talk) 20:47, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I suggest you take into account 's warning, you're toeing the line with DS stuff and adding heavy POV. <span style="color: white; font-weight: bold; background: linear-gradient(red, orange, green, blue, indigo, violet)">PRAXIDICAE🌈 01:01, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Those other edits I made weren't even original research, since the article itself notes the fair use thing, but I decided not to readd it because it was undue. All of my edits were done in good faith and I have no intentions to POV push whatsoever. X-Editor (talk) 01:08, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Doug Weller's comment was based on the incorrect claim that there's no source connecting it to the film. In fact, the very source used for this incident makes that connection. Izzy Borden (talk) 01:23, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That's true. The Daily Dot article is clearly about the documentary because the title of the article is "Matt Walsh used trans people's Instagrams in his transphobic documentary—it's already sending hate their way". X-Editor (talk) 01:25, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @Izzy Borden@Praxidicae@X-Editor I agree it wasn't OR, it was simply a pov misrepresentation of the source. The text two of you were trying to insert says which is allowed as fair use in some circumstances" and Izzy Borden even said in their edit summary "critical to avoid a libelous implication". The source goes on to say " which include whether the content is transformed or used for commercial purposes, in which case it may not be deemed “fair use.” Looks to me as though the content was used for commercial purposes.  Doug Weller  talk 07:25, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Just looked at the talk page, hopefully this is settled now. Doug Weller  talk 07:30, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Glad the issue has been settled. X-Editor (talk) 20:28, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

The Anarchists (documentary) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, The Anarchists (documentary), 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. <span style="border:3px solid DarkRed;background:black;padding:1px;color:Snow;text-shadow:beige 0.5em 0.2em 0.4em; font-family:Papyrus, Georgia, Arial"> D IVINE  04:38, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. See Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents Judekkan (talk) 10:12, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Fair use images
Hello, non-free images used under a claim of "fair use" or "fair dealing" must justify their use in every instance. Therefore, you need to create a separate "Media data and Non-free use rationale" for File:Sad Puppies 3 logo.jpg when adding it to other articles explaining why the use is justified. Cheers, SVTCobra 23:42, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay then. Thanks! X-Editor (talk) 23:45, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
