A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Magedoom is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Magedoom until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. TTN (talk) 11:47, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for March 5
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Extra Ordinary (film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Wind (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

editYour recent editing history at List of video games notable for negative reception 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.

Request reason:
I did not reinstate disputed material. The disputed material was an unqualified statement that Johnson has seven children (and was tagged as such), despite multiple reliable sources stating that he has "at least" seven children. The disputed material was reinstated by User:DeFacto and User:CzelloCortador (talk) 17:02, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

You were edit warring on that biography. The block is clearly necessary. PhilKnight (talk) 18:29, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- The words "at least" and the citations added in [1], [2], [3] and [4] have been edit warred back into the article without a consensus to do so having been found on the talk page. You are currently blocked to prevent you from continuing. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:12, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

- Czello has displayed disruptive behaviour in the past e.g. false accusations of three-revert rule breaks. I can only give people so much benefit. Cortador (talk) 06:59, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
- Are you still on this? It's been months, and you were edit warring, several times, as you continue to do. Let it go. — Czello (music) 07:19, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
- I see you have moved from a break of the three-edit rule to just "edit warring" to hide the fact that your accusations were fabricated. Also, since you apparently monitor my talk page (as evident by you replying to a comment you weren't even tagged in within minutes), I don't think you should be talking about anyone's inability to move on. Cortador (talk) 07:28, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
- Your talk page is still on my watchlist after the previous times I've had to warn you about edit warring. I've not had to "fabricate" a reason to do so: you must be aware of the fact you have a habit of edit warring ideologies into infoboxes when you don't have consensus. — Czello (music) 08:22, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

Financial ties to Russian oligarchs
editKia ora @Cortador. Just want to say thanks again for restoring the edits I made to the page for the Conservative Party (UK). As you can see here, the user Czello left me a message threatening to block me, after I tried reaching out to him to get him to come to the talk page. Bit irritiating. Aubernas (talk) 10:23, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
- @AubernasNo problem. I think it would have been more productive if anyone had actually voiced any specific issues they had with the addition, but none of the other editors did that. Cortador (talk) 18:53, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
edit war
editYour recent editing history 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; read about 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.
Note although this is a 3rr warning the page is (in fact) under 1RR, you have reverted more than once. Slatersteven (talk) 12:19, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- @SlaterstevenThe page states: "You must follow the bold-revert-discuss cycle if your change is reverted. You may not reinstate your edit until you post a talk page message discussing your edit and have waited 24 hours from the time of this talk page message." The BRD page in turn states: "When reverting, be specific about your reasons in the edit summary and use links if needed. Look at the article's history and its talk page to see if a discussion has begun. If not, you may begin one."
- Emphasis mine. None of the users who reverted the edit have a given a sufficient reason, and none have bothered to post a reply on the talk page. You are the ones engaging in edit warring by reverting edits while not following what a BRD cycle asks for. Cortador (talk) 12:30, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- You only posted that talk page discussion today. Slatersteven (talk) 12:38, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- Because nobody had bothered to give a reason for the reverts. I expect a good-faith effort when edits are reverted. Cortador (talk) 12:39, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- "This was added yesterday and needs to be discussed if added. Reversion was correct" is a reason. Slatersteven (talk) 12:41, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- No addition requires a discussion just because, not even articles about contentious topics. If you want a discussion, give a reason why you think that information doesn't belong in the first sentence of the lead. Cortador (talk) 12:50, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

- I suggest you take a good look at WP:BOOMERANG then. Cortador (talk) 13:05, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
Hi Cortador, regarding this talk page discussion that you have started, could you add a proposal for specific wording to be added into the article? Having closed the previous discussion as without consensus, I believe it would lead to a more lasting outcome if specific text was proposed to be included in the article, which can then be approved or rejected by consensus. Thank you. Onetwothreeip (talk) 21:12, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Onetwothreeip The specific wording should be: "Vivek Ramaswamy is a climate change denier".
- That said, I disagree with there being no consensus. Consensus should be formed on arguments made, and the no side has failed to demonstrate why Ramaswamy shouldn't not have this label, and/or didn't bring up sources that deny that he is a climate change denier. Cortador (talk) 07:11, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, you can commence a new RfC which includes that suggested wording, along with the paragraph it would be contained in. However, an explicit description as "climate change denier" did not gain consensus, as discussion participants were not convinced that the sources you provided adequately support the proposed description, so you may wish to propose an alternative description to gain consensus. On volume I would have determined that there was consensus against, but I considered there to be roughly equal weight between the arguments. Onetwothreeip (talk) 07:52, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- RfC aren't decided by majority vote. I didn't see anyone bring up sources that deny that Ramaswamy is a denier, so to be honest, I don't see how you came to the conclusion that there was equal weight between arguments. Cortador (talk) 08:25, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- It's not about sources refuting the ones you provided, it's about how editors have interpreted the sources. Onetwothreeip (talk) 08:39, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
- There's nothing to interpret. The source are clear. Only one editor had an issue with them, stating that two are biased, which isn't sufficient grounds to reject them.
- Also, the "No" have provided no sources whatsoever. Cortador (talk) 13:31, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

editIn this edit, you added a source[1] but the title you added in the "title=" parameter does not match the title actually used in the source.[2] Repeatedly doing this could be construed as disruptive.

Republican party article
editI empathize with your positions here, and I see that we agree on certain issues. I think your time will be better served avoiding the back and forth with other editors. I can certainly relate to your frustrations, but sometimes the best thing to do is to disengage if you know it's not likely to have any effect on swaying opinion or increasing consensus. Let's focus on improving the Far right section and try to keep it condensed down to what is DUE, with a few short sentences. We have a good start, we just need to be patient and open minded. Cheers. DN (talk) 20:18, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
- I'll be open-minded if I can see the same from others. All I get with these reverts are a bunch of links and no explanation. Both Springee and Muboshgu have claimed that GOP support for GRCT is a minority viewpoint, and both have failed to back that up with anything. Cortador (talk) 14:18, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- I really don't see much point in going back and forth with Springee. I think you should both disengage for a bit. I'm happy to work with you, so if you just want to use me as your sounding board I'm happy to act as a buffer until things calm down. Cheers. DN (talk) 19:12, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
Just a quick suggestion. I would not try to hold any other editor's hands and explain policies or walk them through justifications, at least not more than once. Sometimes it's OK to stop engaging if an editor clearly and simply can't or won't acknowledge things. Constantly going back and forth on tangents tends to distract from where the discussion is supposed to go. Focus on your arguments and which sources say what, and how it affects the article. Avoid discussions that tend to end up in WP:BATTLE and WP:LAWYER territory. Not that you are doing anything wrong, I also struggle with these issues myself, but I wanted to let you know that sort of thing happens, and can create unnecessary stress. I like to remind myself I do not control consensus, I simply abide by it. Cheers. DN (talk) 23:47, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
The tag isn't appropriate so there's nothing to replace it with. If you disagree, fine, but take it to the talk page and/or bring in an RfC &c. to show me how wrong I am. In any case, if there's an issue with any fact in the article, tag that but it is cited, so "needs cites" is definitely the wrong template for whatever the problem is you see.
(For Mount Qianliyan, btw, yeah, fair enough. There are cites on that article but, yeah, they should be replaced with a higher quality source so the template fits, kinda. For Qianliyan Island, no, they're journalistic and scholarly sources already and there's no actual problem with them as far as I can see. You're welcome to explain the issue on the talk page, ofc.) — LlywelynII 17:26, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

- @Dedemocha I'll have a look. Cortador (talk) 15:48, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Cortador thank you so much for your feedback so far on this request. I have left a response on the Talk page with some additional sources and closer wording to the original NYT source, which I hope are useful Dedemocha (talk) 16:27, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Gråbergs Gråa Sång Hahaha, wow. That's amazing. At this rate, we'll have to add the discussion about the medal to the article. Cortador (talk) 09:00, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Not if I WP:OWN it we wont (see [7]). Seriously though, I would approach that like the wig [8]. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:09, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Seems reasonable. Cortador (talk) 09:12, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- On height, I just imagined "Kamala Harris is an American politician who is the current president of the United States. She is the second shortest person to hold that office. Also the first woman." Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'd be all for a presidential height table, though that may not be encyclopaedic. Cortador (talk) 09:58, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Wait, that's an actual thing. Cortador (talk) 09:58, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Of course! That's where I got "second shortest." So Trump has got height on his side, like he did with Hillary. She did get more votes though. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:02, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
