Disambiguation link notification for November 14

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Michael Taylor (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Edit-warring on Fox News

Stop icon

Your 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. 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your edit is a violation of the following editing restriction on the Fox News page: "24-hr BRD cycle: If a change you make to this article is reverted, you may not reinstate that change unless you discuss the issue on the talk page and wait 24 hours (from the time of the original edit). Partial reverts/reinstatements that reasonably address objections of other editors are preferable to wholesale reverts." You should self-revert immediately.

Hello Curivity. You sent me an email about this block, called 'Reviewing sourcing for certain articles'. Since no private information is involved, you should raise any concerns here on your talk page. This helps to ensure transparency. Our articles related to American politics have been a source of many disputes. If you are concerned about editor bias, you might like to read
WP:ARBAP2. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 22:24, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply
]
Sure, here is the email I sent. I have already reviewed the article you linked.

Hello,

I was recently blocked by you for engaging in an edit war on CNN's article. I am writing to express my concerns for source material used on certain Wikipedia articles. I do not know if you have the time, desire, or if it is your place to review these materials, but I wanted to let you know anyhow.

Both Fox News and CNN's articles are using highly biased, and in my opinion, are not following NPOV standards. Within the history of these articles, and on the talk pages, you will see many criticisms of these article's sourcing from various editors including myself. I have recently began to reach out and engage in conversations with editors to present edits that will better help the articles follow NPOV and reliable sourcing guidelines Wikipedia has set before itself.

For instance, there are outwardly biased sourcing, opinionated sourcing, that are used in the majority space of the lead of Fox News. These sourcing, such as Media Matters for America, VOX, and others have openly expressed leftward bias. The problem is not that these are left-leaning per se, but that editors have reverted any changes to help explain the opposite viewpoints from conservative-leaning sourcing, stating these sourcings are not permissible because of the same bias. I have made attempts to reach out to editors on both ends on CNN's Talk Page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:CNN), Fox News' Talk Page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fox_News), NPOV noticeboard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard), Dispute resolution noticeboard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard), and talk pages of users. I have not received a response from an administrator as of yet. From what I understand, if sourced criticisms are allowed on one organization's article, but not another, this would fall under editor bias.

I hope you will look over the edits I've proposed and help me better understand what I did wrong as opposed to the sourcing on other (predominately conservative) pages: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:CNN#Proposing_a_Restructuring_of_CNN_lead,_adding_%22content%22_section_with_criticisms_and_new_controversies

In addition, I want to express I am not trying to push my own personal biases upon the article's content, but I am highly concerned, as many others are, with the editor biases going on within these articles. I highly suggest you get involved to help us clear this up, otherwise I fear these issues will continue (this is not a threat on my part).

Thanks! Curivity

Curivity (talk) 22:28, January 10, 2020 (UTC)


Admins deal with behavior in their role as admins, not content. You are talking to a content issue which must go through the normal dispute resolution processes. If you fail to get the community to accept your view, the chances are that you should examine your own biases and/or study the appropriate guidelines a bit more. I would also suggest that you wait until your block has expired before any additional discussion, unless you are specifically discussing why you were blocked. Any other discussion could result in losing talk page access. Just my one cent. We were all new editors once. O3000 (talk) 22:43, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I figured as much. I just wanted to let the administrator know, perhaps he could let someone else know about the problems here. I don't think it has anything to do with my biases, I think many people have raised issues with these articles in the past/present and helping to maintain Wikipedia's reputation as a neutral (political, social, etc.) source of information should, in my opinion, be everyone's concern, especially if you have the ability to explain why we're wrong here. I haven't seen very many constructive arguments on this issue within the talk pages of either article, it's just a back-and-fourth about one's personal political opinions.
