Devil's Puzzle

Thank you for your message and for reviewing my article on "Devil's Puzzle." I thought it would be a great addition to Wikipedia given its metafictional style. Perhaps it could be included on the "Metafiction" page rather than having its own separate article. If you agree and have the time, please feel free to add it there. Thanks! I already wrote it to your other colleague. 😉 thanks

Poor edits (imo) on Gaganyaan

Hey there funnyfarmofdoom I see you've been active recently and was wondering if you could take a gander at some edits made recently to Gaganyaan by user Snoke333. Cheers, CapnJackDaniels (talk) CapnJackDaniels (talk) 19:52, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not quite sure if it was a good-faith effort to add content or not, but in either case it removed information from the page so I've reverted it. Funnyfarmofdoom _{(talk to me)} 20:10, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reversing my edits on Arecibo page

I'm not sure who you think you are, but telling me that I have a fringe viewpoint when I was simply removing bias YOU included is tantamount to censorship. Prove to me the crop circle formation was a hoax and you earn the right to call it one in print. Until that time, you only have the right to simply state that a message appeared in a field that mirrored back many of the same information with modifications. I insist you remove the word "hoax" from this entry. If you are a fair and honorable person you will accept that I am correct in accusing you of the bias of which *I* was erroneously accused. Ksparkler (talk) 00:15, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh please, read the article Talk page comments. It is not bias to include "hoax" in the page. As you will observe, I was personally involved in the initial investigation by the SETI Institute when the crop circle appeared. I am aware that this could be considered WP:OR, but the circumstances were researched and rejected as being anything but a "hoax". In any case the original Arecibo message is still on its way to its destination and do you really believe that any possible life beyond Earth would possibly use a crop circle as means of communicating? Of course, no-one had admitted to making the message, as it was considered damage to the farmers field. I never heard of anyone admitting to making this type of vandalism. In any case, your comments should be on the article Talk page and you should not be edit warring. Thank you & regards, David J Johnson (talk) 12:03, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't speaking to you. Keep your nonsense. Ksparkler (talk) 12:31, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that was really a courtesy reply. You will get nowhere on Wikepedia acting in that manner. Regards, David J Johnson (talk) 12:37, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The content I added in the Skull Island: Rise of Kong page

There is no need to provide a source to something universally reliable, objectively true and non-contestable in any way. Anyone that would make a research anywhere about that game will experience the statement I've added. Even by scrolling down in the very same page that was added in. Aldosa04 (talk) 15:53, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"generally unfavorable reviews" is not an equivalent statement to "one of the worst games of all time". If you find a reliable source that backs up your statement, feel free to add it. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 16:04, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I do know that grammatically "generally unfavorable reviews" does not equal to "one of the worst games of all time", but it does logically and objectively. Anything that has "generally unfavorable reviews" is one of the worst things of all time. If a movie has "generally unfavorable reviews", it will be regarded as one of the worst movies of all time, even if there are hundreds of them. But, what I said until now has nothing to do with Skull Island: Rise of Kong. This game does not have "generally" unfavorable reviews. It has EXCUSIVELY unfavorable reviews. It is like the priveè of unfavorable reviews. One individual just can't rate such thing as "not unfavorable". There is no such thing in the universe that can describe that game as "good" or any synonims of good. If you want to experience what I'm actually saying, just watch a YouTube video. You'll understand. Aldosa04 (talk) 19:10, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Removed by mistake

Hello,

Hope you are well.

I added 2 very useful links to https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Beaujolais_nouveau but they have been removed by mistake it seems. Both links were highly relevant. Please kindly add them back.

Thank you. 2A02:C7C:BF11:E300:5FF:5893:FB08:69E1 (talk) 21:07, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's something wrong with Walney schools article

I was experimenting with the logo then I put Marv Heemeyers killdozer and it can't come off after 20 odd minutes 92.9.143.123 (talk) 17:46, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why was my spelling reverted.

I simply changed write to Wright since the spelling was incorrect. This is disrespectful and MY last name is literally Wright and I’ve known it for 37 years why am I being shamed for it? I want this resolved RIGHT NOW Catsanddogslove0 (talk) 01:31, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article is titled Wright, hence that's what the content is about. Write is a different page. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 01:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for pages regarding humour

I see you have deemed it necessary to source the additions I made to Wikipedia's list of unusual place names for lack of sourcing, may I ask what kind of sources are necessary for humour? Practically none of the other entries seem to have needed sourcing, and if they do they list extra information beyond the humour itself. If there is some part you feel should be sourced could you please clarify? Asden999 (talk) 01:57, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, egg on my face. I didn't realize your edit was to a project page and not mainspace. I've restored it. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 02:02, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Why did you revert my KolourPaint edit? Obviously the GitHub page is dead and nobody wants to give it a fresh link. Somebody needs to replace the stupid link with a new one. 216.145.66.227 (talk) 23:14, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per the message I left on your talk page, just because a link appears dead doesn't mean it should be removed. It can often (and in this case can be) replaced with a suitable replacement link. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 23:35, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

Homebrew Taps for KDE Frameworks is dead: https://github.com/KDE-mac/homebrew-kde

If you go to it, is a 404 Not Found! Please look. That is why I removed it so don't undo my revision! 216.145.66.227 (talk) 23:16, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As I stated in my reply to the message you previously left on my talk page, just because a link appears dead doesn't mean it should be removed from a Wikipedia page. It often can (and was in this case) be replaced with a substitute link. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 23:39, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

use of formal terminology.

Hi, I suggest the correct formal terminology that should be used is 'Islamic Integration' not 'Islamism' in the Islamism article page. Islamism as the term doesn't represent its true nature and objective. The article sounds biased and unjust with that terminology. Later other world media house will also gonna use Islamic Integration term for the future references as the nations are working towards it collectively. Staying in good books is always great and beneficial. 103.218.237.39 (talk) 20:02, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please use the talk page for the corresponding topic to discuss changes such as this. This will allow other editors to see your proposed change and discuss. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 20:33, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I took the liberty of starting a talk page discussion, pointing out that direct quotes should not be changed. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 22:02, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Like he cares about correct terminology, he doesn't even bother putting correct sources! Hongkongpenang (talk) 23:37, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What??

Hi, I'm on the school alumni club and do you go to Duncraig? I think not. I've submitted a complaint as well. 74.122.117.204 (talk) 01:32, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, Wikipedia is unable to accept original research as a valid source. As the school's website states Peter Lillywhite is the principal, I have restored this information to the page. If you are able to provide a reliable source that says differently, feel free to change the page (and include that source on the page). Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 19:09, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vilmos Zsigmond

You reverted the edit where I said to leave that page for accolades. I was hoping someone else could change the title of that page, because I don't know how to do that.

15:50, 4 April 2024 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:1B3:9200:1175:5024:DB44:6DA0:8365 (talk)

The best course of action would be to create a new page, such as List of awards and nominations received by Vilmos Zsigmond. Please see Help:Your first article for instructions on how to create a page. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 19:03, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can't you just leave the way I left until someone can do that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2804:1B3:9200:1175:5024:DB44:6DA0:8365 (talk) 19:07, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately not, as it removes information other readers rely on. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 19:10, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

23andMe Controversies

Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I noticed that my recent contributions regarding the 23andMe data breach were reverted, and I would appreciate some insights into the specific reasons. The incident I added information about involved significant compromises of personal and medical information, highlighting critical issues within the direct-to-consumer market. This is particularly relevant given the ongoing debates about whether clinical tests should be directly accessible to consumers, especially considering HIPAA requirements and ethical concerns surrounding the handling of sensitive data.

Direct to Consumer

In another section, I introduced information about Cygenex, referencing a well-regarded source that discusses its success in the direct-to-consumer space and addresses major concerns highlighted in the article. Additionally, I mentioned Health Wellness Alliance's affiliate program, which provides a unique example of entrepreneurial opportunities in this area. This addition was intended to enrich the discussion on direct-to-consumer offerings in pharmacogenomics (PGx), showing a broader range of business models and practices.

I look forward to your feedback and hope we can reach a consensus that allows for a balanced representation of these topics in the article.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Your edits were removed for a couple reasons. Primarily, they were synthesized material. Editors must be careful to not draw their own conclusions by putting together data from multiple sources. Additionally the writing style doesn't use an appropriate tone for a Wikipedia article (see WP:PERSUASIVE). Finally, unless a specific company has it's own Wikipedia article it's generally not notable enough to warrant an entire section on a page not dedicated to the company itself.

Circle in the square

Hello,

Yes, I do think it's wrong that you removed some of the links. The reason is because what I provided are facts, not my opinions. The job of Wikipedia is to gather all information and share it. Harvey Weinstein has an accurate wikpeida page with similar information. Unless you remove his information as well? As I provided creditable information, it doesn't make sense to remove it. It's unpleasant however entirely truthful and backed up by links. Perhaps adjusting it but not delete it. Islandlife123 (talk) 01:31, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

unless you're going to remove the information on Harvey Weinsteins page which credits and states similar information, I kindly request the info is put back up immediately as it was inappropriate to remove in the first place. I'm happy to adjust the wording, but I provided facts. I have not violated community guidelines by posting it. Islandlife123 (talk) 01:35, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While I definitely used the wrong message on your talk page when I reverted your edit (as I had only seen the addition of a Youtube link that was not run by the subject of the article), reverting your edits was still appropriate. You attempted to add controversial information to an article. Potentially libelous material must be backed up by reliable sources. Youtube is not a reliable source. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 01:41, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Yes you actually missed two of the main sources I used. Youtube was additional and it's fine that edit was done. Youtube is a secondary link. Here are the main credits I provided - one from the schools actual website.

circleofinequity.com/stories

circleofinequity.com Diversity,

Equity, and Inclusion | Circle in the Square Theatre School (circlesquare.org)

Again these are facts, I kindly request my info is out back up as these are proven facts not my opinions. Islandlife123 (talk) 01:47, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Self-published websites and blogs are not reliable sources, especially for controversial information. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 01:51, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

here is the schools actual website confirming the info I provided

http://circleinthesquare.org/diversity-equity-and-inclusion/

let me know if you have any problems opening the links I can re send them thank you . I'm happy to re word the info I provided, but the info has been proven true. This is from the schools webiste. It's not a blog- it's creditable info. I will have to report you if you do not acknowledge creditable information. Islandlife123 (talk) 01:52, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The link provided leads to a website about quilting. Even if it was valid, my previous point stands that no reliable sources were used to back up the controversial content you added to the article. Until citations from reliable sources can be provided to directly back up statements made in the edits, the content should not be added to the article. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 02:02, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not even sure what website you opened. Try this- This is directly from Circle in the Square Theatre Schools website under Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. It's an apology for their actions and acknowledges the websites Circle of Inequity as being true and creditable . Your racing through assumptions without doing a proper search Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion | Circle in the Square Theatre School (circlesquare.org) go to- circlesquare.org - The diversity equity and Inclusion if you need to search for this link manually. . Islandlife123 (talk) 02:11, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I’m trying sending this on my phone instead https://circlesquare.org/diversity-equity-and-inclusion/ 2604:3D08:1D78:F580:E8D6:2BD3:BD0B:5AFA (talk) 02:13, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For example what I could write is In 2020, a large group of alumni created a campaign called Circle of Inequity' to publicly address the school for various issues including sexual misconduct, sex crimes against minors, sex based discrimination, racism and abuse of power. The president of the school has apologized for the behavior of himself and faculty. see his apology here- Apology from Paul Libin — Circle of Inequity

I believe it was against community guidelines to remove my post. Just because infoation seems innaproote, doesn't mean it isnt true or suited for wikipedia. I once again use Harvey Weinstein as an example. Islandlife123 (talk) 01:41, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
