Concerns of POV-pushing

Hey @JPHC2003, I recently reverted some of your recent edits to the pages regarding Ben Shapiro and the Killing of Trayvon Martin. I wanted to let you know that some of what is your basis for those edits seem to advance a personal view not reflected in RS and resembling WP:POV-PUSHING. It's of course important to give WP:DUE weight to both sides, but not reflect the opinionated viewpoint of politically-leaning sources like Mother Jones (it's okay to use them for facts pertaining to a subject, but shouldn't be used exclusively to describe a subject). Controversial topics like the Killing of Trayvon Martin should be approached with caution; I think it would be better to explicitly mention what the sources say instead of simply citing them (i.e. Mother Jones reported that...). GuardianH (talk) 02:49, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Alright, that's fine, sometimes I get caught up. I'm fine with the Ben Shapiro edit because I wrote in a bit of a bad mood. I agree with the need to cite them without a POV, but for the edit regarding the Killing of Trayvon Martin, Zimmerman statements in the recorded video provably contradicts his account of events in police interviews. Perhaps I chose a bad source, but I feel as though it is notable that very little on the internet other than 2 sources I could find (one of them that happened to be Mother Jones). But as long as someone else could point this out in some unbiased way I think that will be fine. I'll also avoid accidental opinion based editing. JPHC2003 (talk) 03:34, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for understanding. It's important to always try to make edits objectively and without bad faith. If you need anymore help in deciding which sources to use or how to word them, you can ping me or another editor — there's also the TeaHouse, which has a lot of editors willing to help.

June 2024

Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Halloween (2007 film), please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Also, it's not necessary to add a category and its parent categories. Only the most specific category need be added. DonIago (talk) 21:06, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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.

Zionists

Hi. I've reverted a number of your recent edits. Attendance at a fund raiser, or being opposed to military action against civilians, are not an indication of Zionism, which is a much more specific ideology. Yes, these people may be motivated by belief in Zionism, but I think you need far greater indication than this before deciding it is a defining characteristic. Indeed, it could be argued that attending a fund raiser is trivia scarcely worth mentioning on the biography. As indeed was the case for Gerard Butler. Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 12:02, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

You can't also decide that the best way to describe an organisation is "Zionist", without any source, then decide that working with said organisation makes someone a Zionist. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 12:17, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

The organizations being Zionist was right in the Wikipedia categories for those organizations, as well as their home pages on their websites. I can see why Butler shouldn’t be included, but Schlesinger and Goodwin should at least be included given how often they speak for Israel, especially on social media. JPHC2003 (talk) 16:04, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

I removed them from those categories, for the same reasons. All the articles verified is that they supported, in some way, Israeli military personnel or Israel. The articles never so much as mention Zionism or Zionist, far less have it sourced. You'll have to show me where either is mentioned on the websites, I don't see it. If you can find it, you might add it to their articles, citing their website.

Does "speaking for Israel" make someone a Zionist? I don't think it's anything like that clear cut. Also keep in mind the usual requirement that the category should be defining. Not just a one-off, never referred to again. Thanks. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 17:13, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
