English language source question

Grandia, I remember at one point you mentioning that you're from Oman. Do you know if there are any websites from the government there providing more information about Ibadism? Or any common publications? I've gone through pretty much everything they have at my local library and am no longer able to expand the article. There's really very little about Oman in general it seems, and even in Arabic most of the sources I find just repeat what earlier sources already said.
Also...have you considered creating an archive for your talk page? It's getting pretty long. MezzoMezzo (talk) 04:22, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

April 2016

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; 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. Izno (talk) 13:56, 13 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Karl donitz.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Karl donitz.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 17:57, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Palazzo dei Normanni, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Frederick II (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Your edits to "Edward Kelley"

You have made a number of edits to "Edward Kelley" in which you claim the sections are unreferenced and original research. "Unreferenced" mean no citations at all, but some of these sections contain at least one reference, so this is not the correct template to use. Your claims are blatently untrue for the section "References in fiction, film and music". This section cites each and every work in which the reference occurs. Please note that although sources are usually given in endnotes, there is no need for an endnote when the source is sufficiently described in the text.

World of Warcraft: Shadowlands

Please don't edit RFPP archives. Let's continue here.

he has reentered that excessively-long and uncited plot again and i am not going to play this childish game with him forever. he can write his memoirs and actual playing experience on there for all i care. since you have declined this request and are watching this article yourself as you said then you deal with him, and don't ask others to do more work because of your decisions

First off, let's address "excessively-long". The current plot is 719 words. MOS:VG#Plot recommends 700 words, so we're barely over currently, and it's hardly worth concern. Secondly, let's address uncited. It's basically accepted that straight forward plot summaries do not require citations, as they are assumed to be primary sourced to the game itself (This is also in MOS:VG, for the record, as well as MOS:FILM, MOS:TV, and MOS:NOVEL). Finally, as I already noted at RFPP, protection would not have addressed anything because you can both edit through semiprotection.

If you're going to run to RFPP about content that's not really in violation of MOS, while edit warring yourself, then whine about how you won't collaborate with other editors outside of wholesale removal, it's possible that your own edits are the one that will be scrutinized. So to be clear: I consider your removals and edit warring to be disruptive. Do not continue. -- ferret (talk) 12:30, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ferret: you are correct about the unnecessity of making a big deal over a plot that's just 19 words over the limit and thanks for clarifying that for me. but you're saying that my edits could be the disruptive ones; then, what stopped you from telling me that and ending that edit-war before (especially since you are watching that page as you say)? it's very clear that you yourself do not seem to know what you are doing. Grandia01 (talk) 06:17, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

February 2023

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at New World Order (conspiracy theory), you may be blocked from editing. Are you really claiming that the Germans are Nazis? Because that's what your edit summary implied. Doug Weller talk 14:02, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am confused as to why you are saying that "I am" the one who is making this claim: Putin is saying that today's Germany is a manifestation of modern Nazism (and that's what the section is about - the resurgence of Nazism). And how am I adding a poorly-sourced content when is the source is BBC news? I am surprised at your logic (if you got any). if I did something wrong, I will refrain from doing so again. But I did not. Grandia01 (talk) 03:28, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Um, you really are going to insult me and at the same time claim that Nazism is increasing in Germany because Putin says "Throughout the war in Ukraine, Mr Putin has falsely sought to present Russia's invasion as a battle against nationalists and Nazis - who he says are leading the Kyiv government." Did you read the article? He mentions Germany in the context of celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Stalingrad and Germany giving tanks to the Ukraine. And the article is about the NWO conspiracy theory - you were reverted twice for violation of WP:NOR. So your content is very poorly sourced - original research and presenting the source as though it says something it doesn't. Ironically there are Russian Nazis fighting in the Ukraine supporting Russia. Doug Weller talk 08:47, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

*How* did I insult you? (stop being a softy) and didn't you read the rest of the article where Putin (again, not I) says that Germany is the "modern manifestation" of Nazism? Grandia01 (talk) 09:06, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You must be reading a different article as he definitely does not say that. Look at the context:

"Throughout the war in Ukraine, Mr Putin has falsely sought to present Russia's invasion as a battle against nationalists and Nazis - who he says are leading the Kyiv government.

And he returned to the theme throughout his speech.

"Now, unfortunately, we see that the ideology of Nazism, already in its modern guise, in its modern manifestation, again creates direct threats to the security of our country," he said." Doug Weller talk 09:13, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So no response? By the way, I'm not impressed by your "so not being a softy". I can guarantee you that I'm no softy - I find that knowing I'm dying soon makes me angry, not sensitive, no one can possibly hurt my feelings. And insulting editors is a good way to get blocked, it happens all the time. Doug Weller talk 08:10, 20 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Editing Question Re: Aurora University

Grandia, I appreciate you pointing out that issues were not resolved on the Aurora University page. You are correct, this account is managed by an affiliate of the university. However, we noticed the page was outdated, as shown by the "article needs to be updated" in 2016 template message at the top of the page. We maintained a neutral tone and looked to only update information that was no longer accurate. As you mentioned, we should have advised more experienced editors, but we are new to Wikipedia, so any guidance you have is appreciated. Would it have been better to continue to have the page be outdated than updating it? We also tried to add more external sources to address that the page relies too heavily on primary sources. Any advice you have on how to address that template message is also appreciated. Thank you. UC1500 (talk) 20:37, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
