Information icon Hello, I'm BlueboyLINY. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Bruce Vilanch, 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. BlueboyLINY (talk) 00:18, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya! Sorry, I wasn't aware iMDB wasn't reliable. I probably should have known better, but no issues on the fix. Thanks for the update! A person of sorts (talk) 02:46, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to Ruidoso High School, New Mexico. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and those sources should be reliable and independent of the subject. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:37, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2024–25 FC Red Bull Salzburg season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page SK Austria Klagenfurt. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Reversion

[edit]

@A person of sorts Welcome to Wikipedia. I have reverted all of your changes to the 2024 El Paso Locomotive FC season article. You are correct that standardization is preferred, but understand that it is not a rule. Standardization is only preferred when proper formatting is used. You can see on the WikiProject Football template the the formatting used on the page is preferred because it makes Wikipedia articles function better with page readers. Good luck in you editing as you move forward. Feel free to ask questions if you have them. Demt1298 (talk) 00:47, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox stats as relating to soccer players/footballers

[edit]

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to contribute to New Mexico United related articles. FYI the info box stats on a player's entry are to include only "club domestic league appearances and goals." Other appearances, such as the US Open Cup, can be tallied in the stats table in the article proper. The infobox stats are to only include league appearances and I think I've noticed that you've made a few edits and combine appearance tallies. Cheers!

Deletion discussion about Tucumcari High School

[edit]

Hello A person of sorts, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Tucumcari High School, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tucumcari High School.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|WormEater13}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Hello A person of sorts. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Lynch44 21:55, 17 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see. Frankly, was not aware of them. Appreciate the notice. A person of sorts (talk) 21:56, 17 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fringe edits

[edit]

You have added fringe content to Genetics and the Book of Mormon, please join the talk page conversation 107.119.53.130 (talk) 02:33, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy -
First of all please review Wikipedia:ASPERSIONS. My goal here is not to spread 'fringe theories'. My goal is a better Wikipedia. Heck, as you can see right on my talk page, I am an agnostic.
Religion is a very, very complicated matter to cover on a unbiased matter. I reverted your edit as User:Tvfunhouse did. This article does have bias issues, as is shown in the tags, but the issues of it being contrary to science are covered in the following paragraph. We don't need that initial section; the article already has that content. A person of sorts (talk) 02:40, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes we do. This is an encyclopedia, and our policies around what we summarize to create is clear. You may want to consider WP:UNDUE when deciding if science and sermons are on equal footing on Wikipedia. 107.119.53.130 (talk) 03:11, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What I see in this case, is the two parts of the statement. What the Book of Mormon says, and what mainstream science says. Those should be two distinct sections. UNDUE does have relevance here, but there is already a much longer contrast to that statment.
That article is a mess no matter what. Probably warrants a delete, but the WPNPOV mentioned on Tvfunhouse's page is my perspective. A person of sorts (talk) 03:21, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The book of mormon says nothing about genetics. Apologists aren't the equal counterparts of scientists. If you are interested in NPOV, please check out WP:FALSEBALANCE and WP:MANDY. We summarize independent reliable sources, not independent reliable sources and random preachers who say God cursed black people. 107.119.53.130 (talk) 07:21, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Who is "we"? You seem to know a lot about Wikipedia policy as an IP editor and have no issue getting increasingly hostile over it, so surely you understand that your edits were reverted by Vandalism patrollers who witnessed a flagrant violation, and not individuals who have written on the article or sourced any of its content? Tvfunhouse (talk) 13:52, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Well, in this case, the IP is right and the vandalism patrollers are wrong. It's okay, it happens, but now may be the time for the vandalism patrollers to step aside and let those who are familiar with the sticky details of WP:GEVAL and WP:PROFRINGE handle the situation. WP:BITE is perhaps worth consideration. jps (talk) 14:15, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is a blatantly false characterization. My stance, as I have explained, was simply to maintain neutral language in the lead and preventing an editor (IP or otherwise) from inserting an editorialized, non-attributed claim that violates WP:NPOV. If you feel you need to "handle the situation," then please do. I would love to stop getting notifications to these threads.
The IP's edit introduced loaded phrasing to the lead that did not reflect the balance Wikipedia requires on topics of ANY matter, regardless if the article is already worthy of deletion. Highlighting that does not promote fringe theories or "bite" new users. It seems perfectly in-line with upholding content standards to me.
I also want to note a suggestion left by IP on my Talk page, that I should apologize and revert or risk admin intervention. This was an obvious attempt from the editor to intimidate than to edit collaboratively. Quid pro quo completely undermines the chance of consensus-building and civil discourse. It'd be curious to know if this an actual "new user." Tvfunhouse (talk) 14:31, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't double down on WP:FALSEBALANCE. The IP is correct that we don't mollycoddle religious belief in the service of lies. There is no genetic connection between Bronze Age Israelites and any indigenous people of the Western hemisphere that indicates any concordance with Mormon mythology. jps (talk) 14:58, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So, just to confirm your stance, it is "mollycoddling religious belief" to cut information from an article's lead that is already sufficiently detailed within it? Tvfunhouse (talk) 15:21, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This edit that we are discussing was labeled as vandalism fighting. It was, as can plainly be seen, a removal of the WP:MAINSTREAM understanding of the subject. It certainly looks like you were acting in favor of sanitizing criticism of Mormon apologetics even if that was not your intent. jps (talk) 17:20, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
My revert was not in the name of vandalism fighting. If it was, I wouldn't have let an explanation. I viewed it as unconstructive due to the presence of later information on how the stance of the LDS church does not have any good sceintific backing. A person of sorts (talk) 19:11, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I know from experience that attempts to counter vandalism and/ior constructive edits can be quick-paced and fail sometimes to explain our stance well as there is a large feed of edits that need to be reviewed. I was frankly unaware of some of the failures of the articles to show scientific basis. But I still stand by my edit as it seperates a section stating what LDS has to say and the scientific counterpoints. I do not believe anyone here is seeking to serve as Mormon apologetics. A person of sorts (talk) 19:14, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm honestly comfortable with that. This argument has gone too far, especially for an article which is under articles for deletion. I accept the failures of my edit due to the context of the rest of the article not being unbiased and hope this can be resolved quickly. I do not have the knowledge you've got. I admit it, and I won't pretend otherwise. I edited in what I understood to be a good attempt at a constructive edit at the time. A person of sorts (talk) 19:18, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
