  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to John McGuirk, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you.

Some advice: As mentioned in edit summaries, Wikipedia uses the term 'anti-abortion', not 'pro-life', for reasons I'd hope would be obvious. Please, do read WP:NPOV and WP:BLP. You can't just introduce content designed to disparage someone, when the reference you use does not back up the claim you're trying to make. Recent examples: Colm O'Gorman (Amnesty won their case); you can't claim that someone has "has links to radical left groups" and use an interview with the person as a reference, where their political affiliations are not mentioned once; as you did on the ARC article. Continue in this vein, and you will end up blocked for WP:BLP violations. New talk page sections go at the bottom of the page, not the top. And this page tells you how to properly cite a news article rather than using just a bare URL. There's a link on that page to the cite web template, too. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 00:18, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

You haven't given ant justification for using the term anti-abortion. It isn't a neutral term and its not balanced to use the term prochoice but not prolife. Please do not mistake article corrections and improvements with attempts at disparaging edits. All of my edits on biographies are contributing to make a fairer portrait of the person or group and I try to use their own own words in so far as possinle. Thank you Aerchasúr (talk) 09:09, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

But if that doesn't work, you literally just change what the reference says, to suit your agenda? Got it. So far, in the past couple of days, you've dismissed a criticism section on one BLP as "a rambling chaotic mess of points" (it isn't), yet introduced just that on another. (Some of your additions to that page have since been 'rev deleted' by an admin; i.e., not just removed, but removed completely from the page history). BLP's of people working as a journalist are fine, but a published author and broadcaster merits this from you?! I am trying really hard to assume good faith, but at this stage, you're really making that difficult.
I will find you a link outlining the use of anti-abortion vs pro-choice. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 09:44, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Using the word crusade to describe at activity of a pressure group seems to imply religious or fanatic. Changing the wording campaigning making it more neutral. The section on the far right links is a chaotic mess. Whatever about Youth Defences history, the organisation has a narrow focus on abortion and a few other issues but the sections on alleged far right links is is nearly longer than the coverage of abortion which is really weird and comes across as a crude hatchet job. Emma Dabri isn't a broadcaster. She is a PhD student. Most published academics don't have wiki pages and she isn't even an academic yet. She is a student and I didnt try to delete her page. I just added to the discussion Aerchasúr (talk) 09:59, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
You don't get it, do you? It's the text used by an external publication. You can't just change it because you don't like it. You just can't! C'mon, seriously - this is pretty basic stuff, and competence is required to contribute here. Emma Dabri is a broadcaster, and, more importantly, she's a published author, easily satisfying WP:GNG. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 10:29, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Well I didn't think colunists were an acceptable source outside of quotes as they by definition partisan. I am restudying the acceptable sources page and one issue that concerns me on the youth defence page is that many of the sources are not meeting Wikipedia:Acceptable sources because they are not Traceable to the author(s). The national library reference is not Traceability to author and neither is the link to the the defaced website. Can you fix this? Aerchasúr (talk) 10:45, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

We don't have to have author names. Quite often, newspaper or website articles won't have a by-line. We still use them. In the case of YD, the National Library of Ireland is the publisher, and that's fine. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 15:44, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
And what's "Emma Dabri isn't a broadcaster. She is a PhD student" about? Did you even read the article? Which lists her broadcast work on BBC and Channel 4? BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 15:58, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

The nugget of data from the National Libary isnt just authorless. It also does not proclaim to be published. Very unethical use of a 'source'. Do you have a conflict of interest?Aerchasúr (talk) 18:39, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

No. Do you? BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 18:44, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

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-1992 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. — Newslinger talk 13:50, 17 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Pro-Life Amendment Campaign

edit

I have rolled back your most recent edit at this article because I have found a reference to support the claim that the debate was acrimonious and added it. Autarch (talk) 15:38, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

You need to restore my correction. Your new source the History mag article doesnt mention it being acrimonious. Aerchasúr (talk) 18:16, 12 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

From the description in the reference it seems as if acrimonious was a reasonable summary. Autarch (talk) 00:20, 13 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

To me that is a value judgment, editorialisation but I appreciate the engagement. Aerchasúr (talk) 00:58, 13 April 2021 (UTC).Reply

Edit warring

edit
 

Your recent editing history at Kilmainham Gaol 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. You have already been informed that gript.ie is not a reliable source. This is the current consensus of the WP community. Do not use it as a source, unless that consensus changes.

August 2021

edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at Sex in a Cold Climate, you may be blocked from editing. In addition to the obvious synthesis issues, there are also clear neutrality issues, as discussed on the talk page. Please engage, per the WP:BRD process, rather than continuing your slow edit war. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 13:44, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • @Aerchasúr: I am an uninvolved administrator who has noticed the slow edit warring at Sex in a Cold Climate. You will be blocked if you repeat your edits without engaging in discussion on the article talk page. Challenged material is removed until it is supported by consensus. When disagreements occur, WP:DR must be followed. Study that page for information but it means attracting other opinions via a noticeboard or wikiproject or RfC (one at a time, not all at once). Johnuniq (talk) 23:36, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the comments and that is fine and all but it was alleged that my additions was original research. It is not. It was a quote from an accepted source, the Irish Times. I am happy to reach a consensus, as I always do but it has to be stressed Bastun's criticism's did not apply to my contribution. This Bastun's agenda to whitewash inconvenient stories, violating WP:POV Aerchasúr (talk) 23:49, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks you but you need to patiently explain that, with reasons/sources and without mentioning other editors, on article talk. Johnuniq (talk) 01:24, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
And I would request that you actually read WP:SYNTHESIS before engaging on the talk page. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 11:20, 8 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ways to improve Edmond Cullinan

edit

Hello, Aerchasúr,

Thank you for creating Edmond Cullinan.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The references are about this person's books. These are primary - see WP:PRIMARY. These references are insufficient to satisfy either of WP:BASIC (for a living person) nor WP:NACADEMIC - notability for an academic.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Whiteguru}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

Proposed deletion of Edmond Cullinan

edit
 

The article Edmond Cullinan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

References show he is a priest but no much else.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. scope_creepTalk 13:30, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
