User talk:Karohusb

Welcome!

Hello, Karohusb, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

Note about using talk pages

Quick note on the logistics of discussing things on Talk pages, which are essential for everything that happens here. In Talk page discussions, we "thread" comments by indenting (see WP:THREAD) - when you reply to someone, you put a colon in front of your comment, which the Wikipedia software will render into an indent when you save your edit; if the other person has indented once, then you indent twice by putting two colons in front of your comment, which the WP software converts into two indents, and so on, and when that gets ridiculous you reset back to the margin (or "outdent") by putting this {{od}} in front of your comment. Threading/indenting also allows you to make it clear if you are also responding to something that someone else responded to if there are more than two people in the discussion; in that case you would indent the same amount as the person just above you in the thread. I hope that all makes sense.

And at the end of the comment, please "sign" by typing exactly four (not 3 or 5) tildas "~~~~" which the WP software converts into a date stamp and links to your talk and user pages when you save your edit. That is how we know who said what to whom and when.

Please be aware that threading and signing are fundamental etiquette here, as basic as "please" and "thank you", and continually failing to thread and sign communicates rudeness, and eventually people may start to ignore you (see here).

I know this is unwieldy, but this is the software environment we have to work on.Jytdog (talk) 23:04, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your question - How does the NPOV dispute process work?

Note -- I moved this from WT:NPOV Jytdog (talk) 23:08, 2 November 2018 (UTC) [reply]

I'm doing a research project on wikipedian's motivations and ideals - neutrality seems to be an important one - and I was wondering how the process works when there are disputes over the neutrality of an article? Is there anyone that knows this process well - it does appear that clear from the NPOV noticeboard or FaQ page.

Hi Karoline - talk pages of policies/guidelines, as well as articles, are for discussing changes to those policies/guidelines or articles.

We have places you can get help -- see for example Help:Reference desk. You might also find WP:TEAHOUSE a helpful place to get orientation. Jytdog (talk) 23:08, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To answer your question, however -- please see WP:DR which lays out the ways for dealing with disputes. Ultimately the goal is to reach what we call consensus, as defined in WP:CONSENSUS. Fwiw, disputes are rarely simply about one policy or guideline - quite often a dispute about whether something is "neutral" might also involve how "strong" the sourcing is (see WP:RS which is an essential guideline). Notions about how we deal with living people often come in as well, per WP:BLP which is an important policy. Jytdog (talk) 23:08, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

introduction to Wikipedia

I wrote user:Jytdog/How which provides an as-brief-as-possible orientation to what we do here, how we do it, and why we do it that way. You might find it helpful. The links in the welcome message at the top of the page have the standard orientation material, which I hope you find useful as well.

Please also make sure you read WP:NOTLAB. Thanks for being transparent! Jytdog (talk) 23:09, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jytdog thank you for all the advise! Very helpful!! Karohusb (talk) 23:26, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
