Question for administrator

<Hello I am having trouble with an account that seems to be a non- disclosed alt account, reverting edits and making sweeping changes to pages, there seems to be other accounts involved >

2. You have posted about this in several places. Please see WP:FORUMSHOP.

• Hello, I'm JimRenge. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nondualism, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. JimRenge (talk) 09:21, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Your addition of text copied directly from UC Berkeley without explicitly crediting the source may also have been a violation of Wikipedia:Plagiarism.

• The cite you just added to Intersectionality seems fine to me because its content supports the text of the article. Not because "An award for one is an award for all." - Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 15:43, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Bodhidharma

Hello, I'm JimRenge. An edit that you recently made to Buddhabhadra (translator) seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Bátuó is Buddhabhadra the Shaolin abbot, not Buddhabhadra (translator) . Please see also WP:INTEGRITY and [1]. JimRenge (talk) 06:26, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Apologies

Apologies for my harsh responses and criticisms; some of your edits really didn't make sense (Bodhidharma regarded as the founder op Chan-Buddhism in pop-culture, while this is a basic origins-story of the Chan-tradition itself), but I do understand now that your intentions are sincere, and that there are some obstacles with regard to cross-lingual subtleties. As I wrote on one of the talkpages. John Mcrae's Seeing Through Zenis really recommendable to read. Also Morton Schlutter How Zen Became Zen is very informative. John McRae is easier to read, but both are very good. Regards, Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 07:47, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for you're kind words Jonathan,My feeling is that robust enthusiastic dialogue is very important. Remembering to keep your equinimity so we can get to the truth. I am still not convinced that the history is correct. But we can work to some common ground through looking through the reference material, thank you once again. 🙏🏼 Foristslow (talk) 21:42, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
