Verifiability of categories

edit

@Walter Görlitz: @Kingstoken: According to guideline WP:CATV, "Categorization of articles must be verifiable. It should be clear from verifiable information in the article why it was placed in each of its categories. Use the {{Category unsourced}} template if you find an article in a category that is not shown by sources to be appropriate or if the article gives no clear indication for inclusion in a category." This edit was vital in order for that guideline to be followed. Without it, there is no corresponding assertion and no corresponding source to be found in the article supporting the category, Black Canadian actresses. I am enforcing Wikipedia guidelines here and the edit-war is very unseemly of you when you haven't a leg to stand on. Walter's refusal to discuss after I attempted to engage him on his user talk page was unproductive as well, and the very reason I persisted in making my followup edit according to criteria in his edit-summary "response". 98.176.128.60 (talk) 02:27, 5 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for mentioning that. For anyone who has seen Traoré in her performances, they can see that she is black and even you admit, in your WP:POINTY edits, here and here, by linking to a reference that's already in the article (http://www.theupperech.com/2016/04/26/feature-mouna-traore-success-thoughts-brown-girl-movement/), that the subject is black. So there is a corresponding assertion and it is verifiable in the article. But from this edit, it appears that your real issue is with the use of "black" to define an "ethnicity or a race", not not whether Traoré is or is not black or something else. So please stop playing games and address your real issue.
Tagging again is WP:POINTY and you're past three reverts.
Tagging me for your edit wars is also POINTY. Feel free to report me to the admins, but watch for the WP:BOOMERANG. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:41, 5 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
