My view on Edit Wars (OPINION. Written on November 30, 2024. Completed on December 1, 2024)

I don't support edit wars. It makes Wikipedia gloomy for the editors (old and new):

• Some were on the news, as indicated in this article.
• Others did not get reported, for example:
  • whether The Love Album: Off the Grid is Diddy's last album (due to the accusations against him)
  • whether Robert Wagner killed Natalie Wood or not.

Screenshot of the latter can be seen here (it was taken on Nov 30, 2024):

Later, at 14:23 PM (GMT) the same day (November 30) - the word murdered^{[NOTE 1]} was removed. Why?

HERE IS THE ANSWER ~ Natalie Wood's cause of death is disputed, as indicated in the following:

• Natalie Wood#Death
• Robert Wagner#Death of Natalie Wood
• Christopher Walken#Personal life - in the last paragraph of the section
• List of unsolved deaths#1975–1989

People are victims to sensationalism these days, as seen in the People article talking about Natalie Wood's death, often coming to this conclusion (sadly accepted): Robert Wagner murdered her - when THERE IS NO confirmation. I believe Donald Trump is a likely supporter of the murder theory^{[NOTE 2]}, as with other theories - all to be found misleading; deceptive; unsolved or just 'blatant disinformation'. But PEOPLE keep believing in them, thanks to sensationalism.

If Trump makes such statements about the deaths of Natalie Wood or Marilyn Monroe - it would not be surprising, given his nature. Marilyn Monroe's tragic and shocking death in 1962 is subject to various conspiracy theories already - long before Trump started his own theories on other things. Again, if he airs his views on Natalie Wood and Marilyn Monroe's respective deaths, it will remind me of the controversy of his friend, Jeffrey Epstein's death, many people thought (some still do) he was murdered too.

How to prevent Edit Wars

Please - cite reliable sources. Sources like the Daily Mail and Breitbart News are banned from Wikipedia - they CANNOT (in any circumstance) be added into an article. See in their articles for more info.:

1. Why Wikipedia banned the Daily Mail as a source around February 2017
2. Why Wikipedia banned Breitbart News as a source around September 2018

Conclusion

Don't succumb to misinformation - especially if you ARE a Wikipedia editor like me.

Notes for My view on Edit Wars piece

• [NOTE 1]: Since c. 2010-2012; Robert Wagner's reputation as a respected actor has been largely destroyed by alleged suspension/guilt over his wife's death. Despite this, he still has loyal fans (including me; who learnt more about both Wagner and Wood - sans controversy of Wood's death - in 2023).
• ^{[NOTE 2]}: There is no public evidence of Donald Trump supporting the theory.
