• "...did not appear constructive" (???) Pointing out, as I did, the well-known (since at least the 1960's) combustion chemistry facts about the Merlin engine are only 'not constructive' if you happen to want to continue to hide the simple (well, I admit that combustion chemistry isn't all that simple - I spent a career learning it) facts. Since only rah-rah-spacex facts are allowed on that page, I assume that the Merlin Engine page is essentially "managed" or "guarded" by SpaceX-o-philes and musk-o-philes; noobs like me simply fall prey to deletion/banning due to our inexperience at so-managing a page. Negative facts are simply disputed out of existence, as the facts/references I provided were. I also realize that wikipedia has its own "true believers" (in the "invisible hand of wikipedia," if you will) who don't question issues such as I ran into trying to add facts to that page. Too bad.
• BTW: If you're ever interested in the actual facts, you can find them, for instance, here: https://www.essoar.org/pdfjs/10.1002/essoar.10509138.9 67.61.89.32 (talk) 01:14, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The "actual facts" are that you were blocked for edit warring--two years ago. Do you really think that that editor is still checking this page, two years after a warning? Drmies (talk) 01:19, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

VQuakr (talk) 21:57, 20 April 2020 (UTC) I understand scholarly style. I attempted to upload images but was unable to (prevented by wikipedia), and so added links to the images on my website. I was not attempting to spam. Should I upload images to some service like dropbox and link there? Thank You Very Much, 67.61.89.32 (talk) 22:02, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. Those still wouldn't be usable on Wikipedia, since they are

VQuakr (talk) 21:57, 20 April 2020 (UTC) Thanks again for the reply, but no, these plots are not original research - any more than other plots of the JHU data (and other data sources) which are already present in the article. Many plots are shown without being original research. Is this not true? 67.61.89.32 (talk) 22:13, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

VQuakr (talk) - oh, and I'm still pretty new to this - VQuakr - are you a 'Wikipedia representative' (not sure that's the right phrase), or an editing/contributing person like me? Thank You, 67.61.89.32 (talk) 22:16, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Like most of the people you may interact with here, I am an editor. Wikimedia employees acting in their formal capacity usually put a (WMF) in their user name. If you would like to upload graphs I believe you just need to create an account and wait a bit, but the correlation coefficients and text analysis on the web site you linked are clearly original research. VQuakr (talk) 22:37, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

VQuakr (talk) Thank you. Once before I was interacting with someone on a different Wikipedia article who seemed to not like my contribution, and someone else (I presume a Wiki associate of some sort, but now I'm not sure) pointed out that my contribution was helpful. I was just trying to understand where I stand in this current interaction. I have been a publishing scientist my whole life and I would not consider clicking on the spreadsheet to "add trend-line and correlation coefficients" original research! No more so than changing the plot type or axis from lin to log, as have some of the plots on the page under discussion. I referenced everything which was done in the plots, mostly to internal Wikipedia articles, to demonstrate the non-originality of this. However, I also realize that covid19 is a contentious page and I sought some clarification on Wikipedia policy. 67.61.89.32 (talk) 23:08, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You can fairly assume everyone is an editor here lacking clear indication otherwise. Granted, our definition of "original research" differs from what one would think of if using the term in an academic setting. I linked

WP:NOR to provide the local definition. Changing a the scale of a graph and basic arithmetic are not considered OR; adding a trend line along might be marginal. Your site also has a bunch of prose commentary and interpretation, though, which definitely is OR. VQuakr (talk) 23:19, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply
