LoS as neo-Nazi group

edit

Hi. I cannot find a source that explicitly says that the League of the South is a neo-Nazi organization. The SPLC says they have aligned themselves with the neo-Nazi Nationalist Front, but does not say that they are themselves neo-Nazi. If you have a source that does say this, please add it to the article and restore "neo-Nazi" to the lead. Thanks, Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:57, 7 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Important Notice

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Nick Fuentes, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Meters (talk) 22:01, 14 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Richard B. Spencer ‎. Bump to final. Recently removed a level 3. Meters (talk) 22:10, 14 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

People actually do read sources to see if they support the claims being made. Meters (talk) 22:14, 14 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

CozyandDozy, I didn't remove your paragraph, but combined it with the one above. If you don't like the way I revised to remove redundancies, then please do it yourself. There is no need to say things twice in three paragraphs. Thank you. Pkeets (talk) 03:58, 21 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Your recent bold edit has been reverted. Per the bold, revert, discuss cycle, after a bold edit is reverted, the status quo should remain while a discussion is started instead of edit-warring, and it should be resolved before reinstating the edit, after a needed consensus is formed to keep it.

Edit warring

edit

Take it from someone who's learnt the hard way, edit warring is going to get you blocked if you keep at it, you've had plenty of warnings, please stop.

 

Your recent editing history at Lauren Southern 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.

This is really not okay: "it would be best if you self-published an article describing which views you now repudiate...We can use your own writings as a source about yourself" You should not be coaching the subject of an article to write favourably about themselves offsite in order to present self serving claims about themselves in their own article on wikipedia. That is a text book example of WP:GAMING. I'm assuming good faith, but please don't do it again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Lauren_Cherie_Southern#Note_regarding_your_complaint_on_your_article Bacondrum (talk) 22:09, 25 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Mike Enoch. 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. And if it's "firmly established", then actual reliable sources shouldn't be a problem, should they? Calton | Talk 16:04, 27 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Per your request, here is the additional information I collated about the various warnings you've received over the past year. I've collapsed it since it's a bit long, but reformat it if you'd prefer.

      • Edits from 22 February 2020
      • Warnings from MrX asking CozyandDozy to use edit summaries, and noting that they violated the 1RR DS on the page: As you saw in the big yellow box, If an edit you make is reverted you must discuss on the talk page and wait 24 hours before reinstating your edit.. I'm not sure why you ignored it, especially given the recent warnings that you received, but please don't violate editing restrictions again or you may end up blocked or topic banned from these article.
    3. 4 March 2020: block by Doug Weller, see "Diffs of previous relevant sanctions" for more on this.

        • Edit in question was 21:55, 14 June 2020 (UTC), where CozyandDozy added "Fuentes' Latino surname comes from his Mexican paternal grandfather. Fuentes admits that he is a quarter Latino, but identifies as white, not Latino." to the article lead. At the time there was no mention of Fuentes' heritage anywhere else on the page.
      • 14 June 2020 (UTC): Meters leaves a {{uw-unsourced4}} warning for CozyandDozy (noting that they'd increased the warning level because CozyandDozy had cleared several unsourced editing warnings from their talk page recently)
        • Edits in question were 04:43–04:51, 14 June 2020 (UTC)‎, where CozyandDozy removed According to political scientist Tamir Bar-On, Spencer defends "racialist and anti-Semitic agendas" of the Old Right under a new metapolitical guise, acting as a cultural influencer rather than a direct political actor, and using various media outlets to "disseminate his views to ordinary people in an accessible manner".{{Sfn|Bar-On|2019|p=225–226, 228}} and replaced it with Following the failure of his political endeavors in the Beltway, in 2018 Spencer moved back in with his mother, at whose Montana home he continues to reside.<ref>https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/06/white-noise-documentary-alt-right/612898/</ref>.

        • 22:04, 14 June 2020‎ (UTC): Meters reverts, summary undo. The supposed source says nothing of the sort
        • 04:19, 15 June 2020‎ (UTC): CozyandDozy removes the same graf, not replacing it with anything this time. Summary This is not on topic and does not belong in the lede. It is one scholar's analysis.
        • 09:20, 15 June 2020‎ (UTC): Calton reverts, summary A) Since it's specifically what he's known for, yeah, it's on-topic; b) yes, it's a scholar's judgment. that's why it's attributed.

GorillaWarfare (talk) 04:20, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Also, just as a note, AE uses sectioned discussion, meaning you should only reply in the "Statement by CozyandDozy" section rather than directly in my section. It's a little disjointed to read, but it's how most arbitration and arbitration-adjacent pages work. I've moved your two comments already. GorillaWarfare (talk) 04:22, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
oh my goodness, this is extremely weak sauce. And here I was actually inclined to think that you'd have something. Saying "Fuentes" is of partially Hispanic descent is a serious BLP issue? Saying Milo "ridicules" feminism is a BLP issue? Saying Milo mocks transgender people is a BLP issue? Note also that these facts were and are cited in sourxes in the article.
Ironically, your additional diffs corroborate my point that Enoch is the only serious offense, and the rest is weak sauce. Since I still kinda like you, for reasons less obvious than they may appear, I do not question your intellectual honesty, but certainly speculate about how I rubbed you the wrong way. (The missus gorilla stuff was a joke about the norms of Wikipedia, namely how it's absurd that we are expected to take a formal, exquisitely polite tone with people while simultaneously referring to them with glib and cutesy nicknames. Did you take this for condescension?) CozyandDozy (talk) 04:58, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
I don't make AE reports because someone's rubbed me the wrong way or because I took something they said as condescension. It's exactly like I said at AE: I was honestly at a loss for how to get through to you that this is a serious problem. Perhaps I am indeed misreading or overreacting and this is all "weak sauce"; that is up to the uninvolved admins at AE now. GorillaWarfare (talk) 05:03, 1 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Oh, come off it Gorilla. The thing was over the second you filed it. Had it been some rando I may have had a chance.
I'm going to dramatically retire from Wikipedia now; I am certain to be topic banned but at least I can beat them to the punch. For the record, my crimes including listing that a Serbian neo-Nazi was Serbian, that Milo ridicules transgender people, and that Nick "Fuentes" descends (in part) from Spanish speaking persons. (One irony is that, in almost all cases, the consensus of editors came to favor my "contentious" change; that change became the new, stable text; and said changes were backed by RS.)
