Corrie v. Caterpillar
editIs this 2007 case a rock-solid precedent? That case had to deal with potential abuse of bulldozers from Caterpillar for punitive home destruction. The delivery of heavy bombs is on a completely other level. Butnotinvain (talk) 11:47, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
Updating article
editI recommend updating the article to reflect its current status as a pending case before the Ninth Circuit. Oral arguments were heard on June 10. Localunnamedsource (talk) 17:42, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
Why is a dismissed case of particular encyclopedic value to Wikipedia?
editAnyone can put forth a case in a court of law. I am unsure why a dismissed case is of particular encyclopedic relevance if the court dismisses it. For example, if I were to put forward a dismissed case that Wikipedia was a pro-Hamas website, can I then create a Wikipedia page about it? What other examples are there that dismissed court cases are of particular encyclopedic value? Tobyw87 (talk) 05:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Easy. Trump v. United States (2022) is another example of a notable dismissed court case. Dismissed or not, all that matters is reliable source coverage. On another note, interestingly there is a post on the Israel discussion board of Reddit, posted over an hour ago, that explicitly shows the post above, calls Wikipedia Hamas propaganda and calls on people to create a Wikipedia account, as I/P issues are so one sided right now it is actually disgusting---I really wish more people would join in this fight in setting the "Narrative". starship.paint (RUN) 06:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Starship.paint Wow, that was a good catch. Thanks for archiving, too :) I wonder whether this call to creating SPAs should be posted on a noticeboard, or it's too mundane. — kashmīrī TALK 13:05, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Kashmiri: - mundane at the moment, I think, if we see new accounts pop up we can just refer back to this. They already know we know, by the way. starship.paint (RUN) 13:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, but it's not only new accounts. We had a flood of resold accounts[1] at Tamil genocide, need to keep an eye on those, too. They are still easy to spot if one knows where to look. Unfortunately, some admins do get fooled. — kashmīrī TALK 13:22, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Kashmiri: - plus the two compromised accounts who tried to take out Nishidani at WP:AE. starship.paint (RUN) 13:29, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
- Just noticed another recent post, 2 days ago, one person said: We should all become Wikipedia editors right away and start out editing articles on topics where we can contribute until we have brought editing history to be able to correct these false claims., another person said: I’m going to create a Wikipedia editors account, and so should you. starship.paint (RUN) 14:29, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
