February 2024

Hello, I'm Magnolia677. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Danielle Smith seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. The tone of your edit was not neutral, and your sources were cherrypicked. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:25, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I would kindly ask for you to provide explanation as to how my edits on the Danielle Smith page were not neutral. Everything added was a statement of fact (the announcement itself, the content of the announcements and proposed policy/legislative changes), and all quotations are direct - including a direct quotation from Danielle Smith herself.

Further, the backlash from medical associations in Alberta and Canada are not "cherry-picked" - they are the professional representative bodies for the very doctors whose medical practices currently carry out these gender-affirming treatments, and will be affected by these changes if introduced.

Seeing as this issue has received media coverage in virtually every news outlet on a local, provincial, national and to an extent international level, it would be prudent to not completely erase this subsection but work collaboratively to add to it. To erase it would be to diminish the situation's importance and to shy away from a basic reporting of facts and statements (even if we do not agree with them personally as editors), which I'm sure you would agree is the point of NPOV.

Friend, you titled your section "Attacks on gender-affirming healthcare and children's rights". Attacks? Here is a major Canadian newspaper--two days ago--calling Smith "a voice of sanity on gender". I could care less what your personal opinions are; what I do care about is the quality of Wikipedia. You added a highly biased edit with cherry-picked sources, which leaves other editors the choice of fixing it, or deleting it. Please take a moment to read WP:NPOV and WP:VNOT. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:01, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Friend, I find your interpretation of these events dishonest and troubling. When hundreds of children stage a province-wide walkout, and when the affected children themselves are calling it an attack on both their access to health care and their rights, simply stating details and the language being used to describe these events is not "highly biased". If you don't agree with the word 'attack', what would you instead call it? 'Policy changes'? 'Legislation against ...'? I am open to hearing your ideas.

I am not sure why you have included a National Post opinion column to back up your argument, since this is not a credible source by any standards. The sources I linked to are fact-reporting and incidentally also include a range of opinions within them - if you chose to read them, you would have known this. Countless major Canadian newspapers have reported the facts, including the aforementioned protests staged by children who are directly affected by these policies, medical professionals who are responsible for carrying out the affected treatments and procedures, and so on. I would be happy to include National Post reporting, but not opinion columns - for example, this one which re-states the same facts reported on in the sourced CBC article that you deleted. Please re-read WP:NEWSORG for clarity on this distinction.

You have also not addressed the main concern here, which is that you have still provided no reasonable arguments as to why you decided to delete a subsection of an article, instead of first editing it and working to fix it. It would seem that you would rather not have this contentious but true policy decision listed on Smith's page, which I find worrying. Thank you.
