  Hello, I'm Mellk. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Seven Sisters (Moscow), 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. Mellk (talk) 15:42, 22 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Seven Sisters (Moscow). Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Mellk (talk) 15:49, 22 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

edit
 

Your recent editing history at Joseph Stalin shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Partial block

edit
 
You have been blocked from editing List of European cities by population within city limits for a period of one week for edit warring. You cannot give up on the discussion but continue edit warring. Note that you are only restricted from the article itself — its talk page remains unrestricted, so you could still continue that discussion (@Talk:List of European cities by population within city limits#Bucharest population) at any time, if you so wish. If you wish to discuss this block further, please WP:PING me here, or reply at the ANI thread, just not my talk page, please. Thank you. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  El_C 06:40, 29 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I'm sorry, but the only one edit warring is FromCzech. I edited the page and added an adequate citation, and he engaged in nonsensical arbitrary arguments to revert sensible changes. The only one who should be p-blocked is him. The data is not obsolete, it was collected in 2022, many other cities on the list have data going back to 2021, and hard-core census data is always the most reliable vs momentary approximations/forecasts. Not to mention, I wasn't even driven by any personal motivation but simply bringing the list to the figure listed on the city's wiki page! Another editor has also brought up this weird inconsistency a few months ago on the "List of cities in the European Union by population" talk page. Wikipedia should be consistent. There is simply nothing to discuss and FromCzech should stop obstructing. Perhaps he is Romanian and feels hurt by the results of the latest census, I do not care, ordnung muss sein!

Block converted to site wide

edit

Due to continued aggression and attacks during the block, from the last sentence in the above unblock request: Perhaps he is Romanian and feels hurt by the results of the latest census, I do not care, ordnung muss sein!, to some of the latest at ANI: Being right settles the discussion. That's how it works with normal people, at least. FromCzech clearly strays from normal. This isn't an acceptable manner in which to conduct oneself. I've converted your block to site wide and reset the timer. Please note that any further hostility and personal attacks on your part may result in having your access even to editing this talk page revoked (which in fact I considered doing) as well as the seeing the block possibly extended (possibly for an indefinite duration). Please follow the steps outlined in WP:DR to resolve any outstanding disputes. That's what everyone is expected to do. No one gets a special pass due to... reasons. Thanks. El_C 01:05, 30 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

= WP:BLP violation at Talk:Jedwabne pogrom

edit

  Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 09:00, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

It is not poorly referenced. The image is real, the people there (among them Adam Michnik vel Szechter) have people in their family who worked for the Stalinist regime. pl:Zygmunt Gross was a party member during Stalinism and onward. Galehautt (talk) 10:25, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
First, you should read WP:RS to understand why this image [1], which you yourself uploaded on Commons and described as "own work", does not qualify as a reliable source. Who says that the people there depicted are the ones you claim? And where do you find the information on them being Jews who work for the "Stalinist regime"? Secondly, and most importantly, that biographical content is totally irrelevant on that talk page. You can't undermine a source (Gross) by describing their ethnic background (Jewish) and the political views (communist) of their parents. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 14:06, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Nowhere is it claimed they were "Jews who worked for the Stalinist regime." They are of Jewish descent and their parents were involved in the Stalinist regime which ruled Communist/Soviet-occupied Poland between 1944 and 1956. The image is real and depicts a group known as Komandosi. I would be glad if you did not deem yourself the final judge who somehow has the right to edit war and delete neutral good faith discussions at will. That is bad faith. Galehautt (talk) 14:10, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
The conflict of interest may be such: (1) inclination to whitewash Stalinism due to ties to the regime which existed before the deck got reshuffled in 1956, at the same time, (2) feeling unjustifiably purged as a result of yet another reshuffling in 1968 causing enhancement of nationalist (Jewish) feelings and enhancement of bias against the Polish nation which the subject considers guilty at large
All this causing a portrayal of the Kielce pogrom as above
Also, hasn't Grabowski been funded by Viatcheslav Moshe Kantor, the leader of an organization named European Jewish Congress and at the same time one of the most trusted pals of KGB-man Putin?
Galehautt (talk) 14:15, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yes, this is an irrelevant and hateful WP:BLP violation. Please stop posting fringe theories about the biases and unreliability of professional historians based of their ethnicity and their parents' political views. This kind of comments are WP:DISRUPTIVE and could get you sanctioned. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 14:44, 23 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Writing "piss off" at my own talk page is not a personal attack. Compare IceWhiz and his harassment campaigns against users like me. I have not done anything wrong on the Stalin page and racked up enough support on the Talk page to carry out at least the minimal edit that I applied which just fixes the flow of the first paragraph and deletes the euphemistic formatting of the hyperlink to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Mellk is engaging in an edit war to whitewash Stalin contrary to the wishes of users on the talk page. I am being harassed and just defending myself. Galehautt (talk) 20:20, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Your conduct, both in personal attacks, and on articles and Talk pages, is unacceptable. Whether you were harassed by IceWhiz or not is irrelevant, but you are not being harassed here. It is you who is doing the harassing. Be careful: if you make another unblock request or continue to make comments on this Talk page that accept zero responsibility for your actions. If you persist, you may have Talk page access revoked. Bbb23 (talk) 21:03, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

"Piss off" may not be, but accusations of anti-Polonism, Stalinism, and harassment campaigns are personal attacks. You might have a point about the content, but it is your conduct--in particular your WP:BATTLEGROUND mentality--that has you blocked. Unless you address that conduct and explain what you will do different and better in the future, it is unlikely you will be unblocked. —C.Fred (talk) 20:32, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
What am I supposed to do when the Talk page on Joseph Stalin has been open for the whole past month and already 2 users Support the point (and my edit isn't even as far-going as the one Supported in Talk, it's just Wikipedian formatting cosmetics) and it's just getting repeatedly rolled back by one and the same user? There's also a topic started by another user with I think all users agreeing that the current pic of Stalin in the article is presenting him as a "folksy" type and cultivating the cult of personality rather than showing him as the war criminal he was. Someone has been behind this, I don't know who. But Mellk has been adamantly forcing through the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact -> (generic) non-aggression pact euphemism. This is actual propaganda revisionism of the Russian state today. Hence my accusation (not a personal attack). As for anti-Polonism accusation, this is not a personal attack, it is an accusation like antisemitism and Wikipedia has hosted Anti-Polonism accusations since its creation. Furthermore, what concerns that case aren't even edits, just my questions on the Talk page (!) that keep getting deleted and silenced. This is absurd. I have not met with such absurd and arbitrary behavior on Wikipedia ever. I am blameless here, everything I do is good faith and not trying to attack. Merely defend against the silencing campaign targeting me and not attacking but accusing, which I am allowed to. Galehautt (talk) 20:38, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Bbb23 Just asking a question here, not forwarding a discussion about my blame: what precise counter-arguments are you using/what precise rationale are you following in your decision to decline my unblock request considering the lengthy statement presented by me above? I just want to know, I am trying to follow good faith and want to know how to be the best version of myself and a good Wikipedian, please help a brother out!

I’m not exactly sure what happened since I haven’t read through the whole thing on the Stalin talkpage & I’m just browsing as a bystander, but from what you say here, “What am I supposed to do when the Talk page on Joseph Stalin has been open for the whole past month and already 2 users Support the point (and my edit isn't even as far-going as the one Supported in Talk, it's just Wikipedian formatting cosmetics) and it's just getting repeatedly rolled back by one and the same user?”, I think a course of option would be to create a WP:RFC or to report their behavior if you found it rule breaking.

  • 331dot, before Gordon's block, he posted screeds against multiple reputed Polish historians accusing them to be unreliable/biased because their ancestors had collaborated with Stalin.

Request reason:

I'm sorry. There must be some kind of inconsequence here. Either on my part or on part of the administration, some kind of goalpost-moving. I was blocked after I did personally call out the user Mellk. I was unblocked after a while for reasons visible above. Jpgordon told me to attack ideas, not people. I was unblocked and did not call out any single person since and have engaged in meritocratic arguments and nothing else. Unless a new explicit guideline is highlighted that I will have to stick to from now on, assuming everyone else does too, isn't my word that I shall keep to the guideline provided by Jpgordon enough?

There's no misunderstanding. As I said before: If you don't think that calling other volunteers as "Stalin fanboys" constitutes a personal attack, then there's really nothing else we can do.

I didn't call other particular volunteers Stalin fanboys. I attacked the very idea of being a fanboy of Stalin and noted that it just appears that the article attracts mostly (notice this word, mostly) their attention and not a more diverse group's of editors. That is a valid remark and I don't know how you can claim otherwise, it's what Wikipedia needs, a diverse group of editors of different backgrounds. This is speech that is legal.
