Information icon Hello, I'm PKT. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Regional Municipality of Durham have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks.

Homelessness and crime tend to be tied together everywhere, not just in Durham Region. The text you provided was biased (eg. "caused by poor government management") and the reference did not point to the Housing Committee report, so the statements were impossible to verify. PKT(alk) 14:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
my source can be verified as the words are lifted right from minutes in the advisory committee report!...why are you "shilling" for durham region??...investment?...hired by criminal john henry?....my edit is correct and can be viewed on durham.ca, i am reporting your edit as " a malicious conflict of interest"...it is fake news instigators like you who have obfuscated reality in our world making it a dump!..the homeless crisis in durham is the worst in ontario and i live here witnessing it....you probably think justin castro is innocent too?..it is your ilk ruining the world unlike hero like jordan peterson burying the 58 gender myth lol BigCdogWS (talk) 15:20, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please cool down. Wikipedia guidelines call for disputing content, but not attacking other editors. I agree 100% with PKT for the revert of your original posting. You had a vague initial sentence, and the 'reference' was in adequate to verify what you added. Referring to the durham.ca website is not sufficient. If the content is to be restored, it must be verified by a link to the advisory committee on homeless report itself. David notMD (talk) 15:27, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Is it these minutes? https://www.durham.ca/en/doing-business/resources/Documents/HousingDevelopment/DACH/March-29-DACH-Minutes.pdf 199.208.172.35 (talk) 15:30, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Those minutes appear to be from the committee mentioned by BigCdogWS, but they don't speak to the info that they added to Regional Municipality of Durham, specifically there's nothing there about crime rates. PKT(alk) 15:47, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Attacking other editors is grounds for you being warned, temporarily blocked, and if you persist, indefinitely blocked. David notMD (talk) 15:49, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

why is wikipedia page on gender not able to be edited?...half of it is speculation with no references?...professor jordan peterson has proven 58 genders is a myth? BigCdogWS (talk) 16:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Gender - as you can imagine - is a hot button topic and Wikipedia requires people to get more experience with editing before tackling it. Can we work on your edits to Durham first? 199.208.172.35 (talk) 16:56, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

Information icon Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Wikipedia:Teahouse. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 15:58, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Regional Municipality of Durham, 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. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:47, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I saw you were trying to include references, BigCdogWS, but the formatting didn't work correctly. You can read this page to find out how to format references. Thanks! Perfect4th (talk) 16:49, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What's really needed is a secondary source rather than the minutes of a meeting. See
WP:PSTS. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply

my references are fine, this is fake news....how come your gender article plagued with obfuscation of truth can not be edited? BigCdogWS (talk) 16:58, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As I told you above, there are some articles which can't be edited until you gain more experience (time/edits) on Wikipedia. Gender is one of them. If you try adding incomplete references to that article in the same way you did to Durham, you'll find yourself being reverted again.
Your references can be fixed if we just work together on this. Wikipedia is all about collaboration. 199.208.172.35 (talk) 17:02, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
wikipedia as rebel news has stated is all about FAKE NEWS!...your article on gender is full of fantasy, bold faced lies and alternate agendas brainwashing our youth with asinine lies...professor peterson proved 58 genders as false, wikipedia is worse than cbc news lol BigCdogWS (talk) 17:14, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
i wouldn't want to ruin your fake news lol, reading your fake gender article loaded with false reports, unreferenced opinions and state funded weirdo agenda fortifies my suspicion...wikipedia is FAKE NEWS!! TRUMP 2024!!!!!! BigCdogWS (talk) 17:17, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, on the one hand, I'm glad you found your way back from UTRS. On the other, you've misused your talk page. If you are not going to make an unblock request, I'm afraid we'll need to remove your talk page access. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:11, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And, your talk page access is pulled for your most recent comments. Please direct future appeals to UTRS. -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 19:23, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if you do, please change your tone, withdraw your legal threat, and explain how you will edit constructively. Thanks. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:26, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm gonna miss this guy  :)

Thank you to admins and other serious editors for your support. It is very much appreciated. PKT(alk) 20:15, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
