I'm asking you to review the Wikipedia:Etiquette guidelines, and WP:PROMOTION, which makes clear that Wikipedia is not "a vehicle for propaganda, advertising and showcasing." The inclusion of publicly available and well-documented information about an individual is not wrong just because it may present that person in a negative light. Reverting edits of mine made elsewhere on Wikipedia just because you have a strong POV about the A.J. Finn article does not help to make your case. --siriaeve (talk) 14:22, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- Your edits, here and elsewhere, focus on sensationalist information, which violates Wikipedia policies. You repeatedly introduce negative edits to Wikipedia pages of persons you appear to dislike (often having something to do with Ireland). The passages you *repeatedly deleted* in this page were well sourced and objective. If you wish to edit the page, please add information, even if it is the sensationalist information you focus on, without deleting the objective information added by others. Wikipedia is a volunteer community and you should improve, not destroy, the hard work of others. Accura9 (talk) 14:40, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- No, they do not. I'm not sure why you are assuming I make edits about people whom I dislike, as opposed to people about whom I became curious as a result of news stories or reading about them in other places. Cherry-picking from my contributions to Wikipedia over a period of several years is hardly fair or reasoned. I'm also not clear what my being Irish has to do with anything? You have accused me in various places on Wikipedia of being sensationalist, threatening, and destructive. This is over-the-top rhetoric. Please stop. siriaeve (talk) 17:14, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- Let me explain: You accused me of acting in bad faith and I looked at your editing history. It was my impression that you have introduced trivial, sensationalist information to several Wikipedia articles, often relying on tabloid sources including gawker. It was also my experience that when one attempts to correct you in the collaborative spirit of Wikipedia, you quickly reverse the changes. This makes Wikipedia worse, not better. That's just my opinion, and you don't have to agree with it. I do not know whether you are Irish or not, and it does not matter. What I said was: "You repeatedly introduce negative edits to Wikipedia pages of persons you appear to dislike (often having something to do with Ireland)." Why did I say this? You took over the page of a young female Colombian footballer and you made it all about a negative incident involving Ireland's women's national football team. That's not balanced and it violates Wikipedia's polices on BLPs. When I noticed this, I tried to fix it by making it less sensationalist. You promptly blocked my edit. Are you not concerned about the safety of this young individual? You are free to act as you wish, but please do not accuse me of being over-the-top. We clearly have different editing philosophies and that's fine. I am not trying to change your editing philosophy and I am not interested in having an argument. I wish you all the best. Accura9 (talk) 18:15, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- I absolutely did not "take over the page of a young female Colombian footballer"—I added in a brief paragraph about a high-profile incident to do with the World Cup which literally made both national and international news headlines for a number of days. That's not sensationalism. Accusing me of somehow having sinister intentions towards the person in question is so ridiculous that I cannot believe it's an accusation you're making in good faith. All of this is also beside the point, because I do not think the heart of the issue here is your concern with my "editing philosophy." The key thing here is that you're upset that I included information on the A.J. Finn page that readers may not think reflect well on its subject, and removed language that read like it was trying to puff up/promote the subject. That's the issue. siriaeve (talk) 18:37, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- The way you twist my words repeatedly calls into question your objectivity further. Please take a look at what I wrote above. You will see that I did not accuse you of having "sinister intentions" toward the young female Colombian footballer. Why make up an accusation of "sinister intentions"? I do think, and I did say, that you introduced sensationalist information that rendered the article about her unbalanced. And you were not interested in working collaboratively to improve it, but, instead, just reversed my constructive edit. Regarding sensationalism, I quote from the Wikipedia policy on BLPs:
- Biographies of living persons ("BLPs") must be written conservatively and with regard for the subject's privacy. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment.
- Again, I am not interested in having an argument and I do not think it's productive to continue this discussion. I wish you all the best and I am sending positive energies your way. Accura9 (talk) 19:00, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- "Sending positive energies" is passive-aggressive nonsense.
- You wrote "Are you not concerned about the safety of this young individual?", and I can think of no way to read that other than you intending to imply that my Wikipedia edit was in some way recklessly putting her in danger. I'd call that imputing sinister intentions, yes. I'm not twisting your words. I'm reading them closely and carefully.
- Again: your key issue with me is the A.J. Finn article. That's it. That's why you started this. To frame me as some kind of agent provocateur inciting people to violence because I pointed out that a mid-list thriller writer has admitted to lying to people repeatedly is over-the-top. siriaeve (talk) 19:12, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- I happen to believe in "positive energies" and I'm sorry you find that to be "passive-aggressive nonsense". I disagree with your editing philosophy, which I find sensationalist and non-collaborative, but I certainly did not call you "some kind of agent provocateur inciting people to violence". I don't know anything about you. Those are your words and your edits to the Daniela Caracas page are your responsibility. I tried to improve that page and others and you blocked my constructive efforts. I wish you all the best. Accura9 (talk) 19:34, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- My words are my responsibility, it's true. Yours are disingenuous, and that's on you. siriaeve (talk) 23:02, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at A. J. Finn 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—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—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, Accura9. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page A. J. Finn, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Nat Gertler (talk) 22:50, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
