Why do you keep on blocking my editing?

Hello Bennv3771, I would like to ask you why you keep on not accepting my editing!I did what you said!Gave a valid reason for my editing in the editing summary and provided reliable sources that prove my statements' reliability. Although,you keep on blocking my editing! I have spent countless hours of searching about the certain topic and finding reliable sources. Why do you do that and what should I do in order for my editing to be accepted?

Thanks,

Hello Bennv3771,

You keep on preaching about how my sources are not reliable but have you checked the sources provided? The sources you provide are not reliable! The sources that refer to the statement "Turf Wars is a canonical continuation of the original series" have nothing to do with the statement! The first one is just an article from comicbook/tv that just says that "Turf Wars" shows Korra and Asami's first kiss! It does not say that is a canonical continuation. The second one is from cbr.com and it has nothing to do with "Turf Wars" since it refers to another comic not the one the wikipedia article is about! The sources would be reliable if they contained statements by the AUTHORS of the original series that characterize "Turf Wars" as a canonical continuation of "The Legend Of Korra" . If you google it, however much you try to find that kind of statement from the authors, you will not find it, for the AUTHORS never said it is a canonical continuation! This is just a spontaneous conclusion! Also, the article overwhelms with generalization saying how everyone praises the integration of same sex relationships into the comics while there are NO SOURCES that prove the reliability of that statement! The truth is that it is a topic of major conflict! You can certify that if you search about it a little bit. Google it and you will came across with counteless sites that state how much they dislike the new addition! So not EVERYONE likes it! Even if the majority of the critics liked it (another statement that cannot be proven) it is of utmost significance to include the fans opinion! Also I am not the one aiming to push a certain POV since I just state facts that are not biased, not opinions like the ones the article contains and I am certainly not the one threatening to "block someone from editing" because I do not like the facts they provide. If you read my editing you will see that there is not a POV since I just state facts and not spontaneous conclusions. I do not aim to affect the readers' opinion, I just cannot stand misinformation and since wikipedia enables users to edit articles I thought it was the right thing to do to try and fix that. Wikipedia is supposed to be an online place where people from all around the world can share their knowledge. What is the point of enabling users to do that but accept only the "information" you like even when it is not based on solid evidence? What is the point of preaching to be a site that is based on the users' knowledge if there are people who CONTROL what will be posted and what will not? Who are you anyway? Why do you think you can keep others' mouths shut so that they cannot enrich the site with more information about a certain topic? The rumors about wikipedia's censorship incidents go rampant, I hope they are mistaken...Could please read my editing again? You will see that no personal opinion is included.

Thank you for responding, I will try to find "reliable sources" that prove my statement's reliability.So, I need to find a site like comicbook/tv and not quora? Because both contain articles and reviews by users. I would really appreciate it if you explained to me what kind of source will be accepted. Also, about the generalization part, will you take it into cosnideration? I think it is a solid argument that appeals to the reality. The sources I selected show the fans POV that did not like the new adition. I could also add sources that show the POV of the fans that like it. Will that be okay?

Hello Bennv3771, I did some research and found a source that is considered to be reliable according to wikipedia terms. It proves my statements' reliability and it is not a user-generated site but a website that hires staff to write its reviews.

There are many people that agree with me and you just do what? Shut their mouths so that they will not be heard? The article is biased! Anyone can tell that! You know what? Thank you for responding all this time. I have nothing else to say. The rumors about Wikipedia's censorship are so true. I feel really disappointed. You know I can do the same to you right? There is a whole article on Wikipedia about that!!!! I do not do it though. Because I believe it is ethically wrong! I cannot ban you from editing! Wikipedia enables all users to do so. Who am I take that right from you? People like you support censorship! I do not understand why you do that and I really do not have to. Well, censorship it is.

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019

Hello Bennv123,

Backlog

Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.

Coordinator

A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.

This month's refresher course

Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired Ballonman
, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for making the occasional mistake while others can learn from their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.

Deletion tags

Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.

Paid editing

Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to

WP:COIN
if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.

Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
  • Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for
    organisations and companies
    .
  • Blank-and-Redirect is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.
Not English
  • A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with
    WP:NPPNE
    . Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.
Tools

Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent enhancements to the New Pages Feed and features in the Curation tool, and there are still more to come. Due to the wealth of information now displayed by ORES, reviewers are strongly encouraged to use the system now rather than Twinkle; it will also correctly populate the logs.

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.

Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

DannyS712 bot III is now patrolling certain categories of uncontroversial redirects. Curious? Check out its patrol log.

New Page Review newsletter November 2019

Hello Bennv123,

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.

Getting the queue to 0

There are now 816 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards.

Coordinator

Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.

This month's refresher course

Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers:

This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks
to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.

Tools
  • It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
  • It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.
Reviewer Feedback

Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.

Second set of eyes
  • Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the
    Monitoring the system
    section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
  • Do be sure to have
    our talk page
    on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.
Arbitration Committee

The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.

Community Wish list

There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

Reviewer of the Year

This year's Reviewer of the Year is Rosguill. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.

Special commendation again goes to Onel5969 who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to Boleyn and JTtheOG who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

This month's refresher course

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag.

My issue with your edits is a simple grammatical one. "Cast" is a plural noun and can't be pluralised by adding an s. So "Notable cast members" is OK, "Notable cast" is clunky but passable.

New Page Patrol December Newsletter

Hello Bennv123,

A chart of the 2020 New Page Patrol Queue

Year in review

It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by Rosguill who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to JTtheOG and Onel5969 who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to John B123, Hughesdarren, and Mccapra who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by DannyS712 which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the

redirect whitelist

Your recent editing history at Sherri Tenpenny 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. 185.188.61.18 (talk) 17:55, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Bony-eared assfish year described

Every website I've seen gives the year as 1878 for the bony-eared assfish. Even the wikipedia page gives that year for (in the table to right). BulbousCow (talk) 19:19, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

I just looked at the cited source. It even gives the year as 1878. That 1887 work was just describing two specimens taken by the Challenger expedition. BulbousCow (talk) 19:22, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I must've been looking at the further reading section of the bony-eared assfish. The original 1878 description is also cited on that page. 1887 work was just elaborating on two specimens taken by the Challenger expedition. I don't see how a NatGeo article should be considered remotely reliable when you have two primary soucees in the article itself? BulbousCow (talk) 19:32, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Fixed. Not sure how to link that, but I just changed the ref format for the original descipton from 1878 so it could be cited twice. BulbousCow (talk) 19:41, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Wannabe

I added a reference to Wannabe yesterday and you said I forgot to add a page number. But I didn't forget though. Go back and the reference is right there (ref 117) and it said "Halliwell, Geraldine (1999). If Only. Delacorte Press. p. 309. ISBN 0-385-33475-3.". The reference currently says page "215–216" which is wrong, it was page 309. Grand Dizzy (talk) 15:50, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I think I got the wrong details. It's page 309 from 0 553 81529 6 Bantam Press 1999. Quote from the bottom of the page: "The video appeared to be shot as one continuous take from beginning to end, but was in fact two takes, so perfectly synchronized that no-one could tell."
