@Allthemilescombined1, I did. Read MOS:SEEALSO in particular MOS:NOTSEEALSO. Each of my edit summaries explains the reason for the removals in that edit. In the diff you supply, I removed links that are already in the Antisemitism sidebar template. The See also section prior to my edits was far too long relative to any standard of such sections.

I should say it's still too long, but the remaining links aren't removable for immediate reasons like the ones I removed were. Many of them would best be superseded by coverage in the article — I'm thinking e.g. of Holocaust inversion, which would go in a substantial section about Holocaust denial etc., but for some reason there is almost nothing in this article about Holocaust denial specifically, with the relevant subsection only two sentences long. edit: I've now added the beginnings of a section about Holocaust denial, with a paragraph about Holocaust trivilization/inversion.ByVarying | talk02:59, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Inclusion of 'Elon Musk' section in Contemporary Antisemitism section
My most recent contributions, which added an Elon Musk section to 'Contemporary Antisemitism' were undone by @Jpgordin with a reference to WP:BLP. This user has requested that I create a talk page here to discuss. Which policy was violated in particular by this contribution? Thanks. 81567518W (talk) 15:48, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It strains credulity to argue that contemporary antisemitism is not informed by the most influential figure in the world who regularly and very publicly engages in antisemitism. A section on Elon Musk's antisemitism does not give undue weight to any 'side' of an argument. 81567518W (talk) 18:01, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Has nothing to do with sides—and what argument? It gives undue weight to an individual who is really not that important to the topic of antisemitism. ꧁Zanahary꧂18:07, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If this is the case, then certainly a section on Musk holds as much weight as, say 'Black Hebrew Israelite antisemitism' (culturally marginal) or '21st-century antisemitism at universities' (sources in this section present no direct evidence of widespread antisemitism on college campuses). The former, for instance, has a due weight template. 81567518W (talk) 13:28, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
