Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Suicide of Adriana Kuch, 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. And please read WP:POV. Meters (talk) 21:33, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Suicide of Adriana Kuch

Hello, SquirrelHill1971

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Atsme, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Suicide of Adriana Kuch, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

1. Edit the page
2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Atsme}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

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

Comment at Talk:John Fetterman

You made this problematic comment at Talk:John Fetterman. You can not say such things about a person without reliable sourcing. You need to read WP:BLP. Iamreallygoodatcheckers ^talk 01:28, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

I was asking for reliable sourcing. SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 21:52, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Aoi. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to MoviePass seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words.

Proposed deletion of Stockton, California, 7-Eleven incident

The article Stockton, California, 7-Eleven incident has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Documented by tons of news sources, but nothing beyond sensational and routine coverage. Fails SNG, WP:EVENTCRIT.

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.

August 2023

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generalisation, other talk pages such as Talk:Max (streaming service) are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at José Garza, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Meters (talk) 04:31, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

You really need to stop pushing WP:POV and inappropriate material with poor sources. You have been warned about this before. There's a reason your recent edits to Jamaal Bowman, 4chan, Diablo Valley College‎ and Oakland, California‎ have also been undone. Meters (talk) 04:35, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

And there have been multiple mentions of your POV pushing in summaries and on talk pages. Meters (talk) 04:43, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Please explain how these sources are "poor."

In August 2018, Diablo Valley College ethics professor Eric Clanton was sentenced to zero time in prison after he used a metal bike lock to assault the heads of seven Donald Trump supporters, even though there was video proof. Clanton had tried to hide his identity, but amateur sleuths from 4chan were able to accurately identify him, and his identity was later confirmed by police using forensic evidence.

SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 19:42, 24 November 2023 (UTC) SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 19:42, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Reliable sources show that these judges, district attorneys, etc. care more about violent criminals than about their victims.

SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 19:49, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Please explain how this is not a reliable source:

In October 2022, Garza made a plea deal that gave zero time in jail to a man who had beaten his pregnant girlfriend so severely that her fetus died.

SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 19:29, 24 November 2023 (UTC) SquirrelHill1971 (talk) 19:29, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

I didn't say that all of your sources were poor, but some of them certainly are. For example, in your list for Eric Clanton you include a personal YouTube channel, and the source for claiming that Garza made a plea deal does not mention Garza by name. Meters (talk) 20:04, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

Garza is the district attorney for that jurisdiction. All plea deals fall under his rule.

The YouTube video is mentioned by other sources, which are reliable.

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Talk:José Garza. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Stop pushing your POV Meters (talk) 20:41, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, 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.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

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.
