Hi Yve, regarding your edits to the 1943 race riots, If you want to see the authors of the article and film of the source you deleted simply click on the film details link in the article. Also, please provide sources for your opinion that the KKK in Detroit is "useless" to the background of the race riot. Regarding your "inflammatory" accusations, the racism, the KKK, and white supremacy are all real things. You cannot ban mentioning sourced material simply because you believe that mentioning it is offensive or not PC.Lance Friedman (talk) 12:57, 12 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

IQ and the Wealth of Nations

edit

Re your edit.

Per WP:BURDEN the person adding or restoring challenged content MUST provide a source. Period.

The rest of the paragraph, while not specifically footnoted is referenced to the actual content of the book itself. If you do not believe that the content in the article is an accurate summary of the book, then you may challenge it. -- The Red Pen of Doom 15:31, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. The content in the article needs to be presented as content from the authors in the book and reflect ONLY what is in the book itself and not any current review implying "See the authors were right in their predictions" -- The Red Pen of Doom 16:01, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Noel Ignatiev. Thank you. RolandR (talk) 12:47, 25 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Asian American, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please see Talk:Asian American#Multiracial Asian Americans.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 21:53, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

POVing

edit

POVing is not even a word. I believe you want to say "POV pushing." That said, I had already opened a section on the talk page to discuss whether the content you desire is appropriate or desirable for the article in question. Please join me there, rather than revert warring and refusing to discuss the issue. KillerChihuahua?!? 16:37, 1 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Gangnam District

edit

This is regarding your edits at Gangnam District. Please join me at the article's talk page, rather than revert warring and refusing to discuss the issue. -A1candidate (talk) 17:07, 1 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

edit
 

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we request your participation in the discussion to help find a resolution. The thread is "Gangnam District". Thank you! EarwigBot operator / talk 11:28, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Noel Ignatiev. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 21:54, 7 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. –Roscelese (talkcontribs) 17:28, 8 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Snarkiness

edit
 

Thanks for expressing your opinion of the candidates during the selection process at Talk:Asian American. However, your snarky comments in reaction to others votes can be seen as boarding on violating WP:CIVIL.

December 2012

edit

  Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Gangnam District. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. S. Rich (talk) 02:08, 28 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits.

I was getting tired of the feminazis trying to pretend that life is all rosy for men and that they are all evil misogynists. Men have much harder lives in the modern world. Women get everything handed to them on a platter. YvelinesFrance (talk) 12:25, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Get it together, editors

edit

It's clear from what I've seen on this talk page and the reasons that led me to this user's page in the first place that this user is not conductive to the sterile, NPOV Wikipedia that most Wikipedia editors aim for. It's funny how much you can get away with when you have a username. I once had my IP address blocked for a single edit to Sarah Jessica Parker's page in which I described her as having "equestrian" facial features. I was banned for arguing against the inclusion of an entire section devoted to sexual imagery on the page for the movie Alien. ("Because the guy who wrote the screenplay said so" beat out my argument, somehow.) But if I was to go around making edits that reflect my outdated and sexist ideologies, that'd be okay? 68.100.138.56 (talk) 03:33, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

lol. But seriously, your saying that I have outdated and sexist ideologies is not NPOV. Modern feminism has evolved into a men's hate group rather than people striving for true equality. YvelinesFrance (talk) 12:21, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did to Chenogne massacre, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. (Hohum @) 00:40, 1 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
