Liberal Darling AOC
You don't seem to have a handle on the policy for editing the article about AOC, so here is my understanding: 1) Anything AOC says, no matter how ridiculous, ill-informed, or offensive, can be included, because she is AOC. 2) Any statement in support of AOC is of course allowed. 3) Any statement critical of her or her policies or positions is not allowed unless a) it specifically mentions her by name (not just refuting statements she made or positions she took), and b) was widely reported in liberal media. 4) Any edit which includes a cite to Fox News will we immediately reverted, despite Wikipedia listing Fox News as a reliable source. 5) If you take issue with the policy, some editor will cite a Wikipedia rule that has little if any relevance. I hope this clarifies things for you. -JohnTopShelf (talk) 17:58, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

- You initiated three consecutive nominations for deletion for pages that Alan had either created or recently contributed to. The encyclopedic merits of your nominations aside, it is not really believable that it was a coincidence, particularly when you link at the history of Elizabeth Shin. I can't read minds, so I can't determine who's in the right, but you're well aware that this exact thing is part of a long-running issue between you two, to the extent that you accepted a TBAN from this specific thing. And that's the thing—you're not banned from this any more. And we can't know that your intent is to harass. But it can be reasonably construed as baiting. Surely you can understand that. As a neutral party, I think it's a pretty reasonable reaction, given the context, the timing, and the history. It would seem like the exact sort of thing I cautioned you against doing. One deletion nom isn't going to create an issue, but this looks like a "drive by". Not saying it was intended as such, just that that's how it looks. It's not some wild, unhinged allegation like you're saying it is. While you're not under sanctions, I'm sure you agree that we do not need the conflict to re-erupt because of unlikely "coincidental" interactions that may or may not be intentional, depending on who you choose to believe. "I'm not under sanctions" will not exactly be a great look if it re-erupts at a community noticeboard, you know? I'm not out here to give you a hard time because I'm somehow invested in this conflict. I'm purely here because I closed the discussion, which means that Alan is coming to me with his complaints. So I can pass it along that it seems like you're maybe pestering Alan in some way, and that it would be in everyone's best interest if you were more careful about not doing that, and tbh it doesn't really matter whether you have good excuses for the interactions or not. If the complaints keep coming over debatable interactions that Alan thinks are meant to bait him, we're going to end up with yet another protracted thread at AN/I about it and relitigate the existing sanctions. ~Swarm~ {sting} 22:25, 6 October 2019 (UTC)]

Unless you want to file a full blown case at arbcom and that will be a slugfest, trust me. At AE they may sanction and they may blow it off but the AN/I thing is done and it won't be forum shopping since ElC said it belongs at AE. Or you could ask Awilley to examine the evidence but I prefer a plurality of admins on this matter.

- Questioning the competency of others is worse than a personal attack in my opinion.--MONGO (talk) 23:27, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
- 1. Don't pin this on bad advice from El_C. Yes, he said that AE was the correct venue, but he definitely didn't advise you to take it there. He said, "Rusf10 is free to relist this as an AE request, but I don't know if it is going to amount to much." and that was after saying he didn't find the content in question to be a personal attack.
- 2. BullRangifer didn't interpret...that's literally what the sanction says. Article Talk pages. But no, he can't personally attack anyone anywhere else, because WP:NPAapplies everywhere.
- 3. If you really want an apology you could try asking for one. Or a retraction/strike. (That's what BR is supposed to do when he slips up on talk pages, and there's a good chance he'll do it here too.) But in my experience the best thing to do with personal attacks is to ignore them. They just make the attacker look bad. (See also meatball:DefendEachOther) ~Awilley (talk) 01:51, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

- Awilley, no idea why we have NPA policies or expectations that editors are to refrain against commenting on other editors motivations, biases or mental capabilities of they aren't enforced. The occasional slip up is to be ignored yes but a constant barrage with multiple examples that are done even after being warned? There is no doubt in my mind that if I was reported with the diffs offered I'd be TB immediately.

1. I'm not going to wait for Rusf10 to seek an apology. I'll strike it right now. It was ill-advised, and I'm sorry about that.
2. El C is an experienced administrator who made the right call. My comment was a criticism, not a personal attack. Not all unpleasant things that are said are personal attacks. They're just uncomfortable criticisms. If I had resorted to name calling, now that would be a personal attack. Civil criticisms should not be interpreted as anything other than that. They are not personal attacks. The civil expression of differences of opinion should not be punished.
3. To make sure there is no misunderstanding of what I meant, I consider it a bad idea to ignore the notability rules for article creation and start an AfD. If an article is based on RS, give it a chance. Wait a while. If it was created on a deceptive or false basis, or it lacks RS to document notability, then, after a few days, try an AfD.
4. Awilley is absolutely correct that NPA applies everywhere, especially on article talk pages. Differences of opinion and criticisms that are directed at editors should be dealt with elsewhere, such as on personal talk pages. In that regard, Awilley did not unfairly intend for me to live by a different or higher standard than every other editor, although that has been the effect of the sanction I live under. So be it. Many other editors regularly engage in very hard criticisms, swearing, name calling, ad hominem attacks, etc, without anything happening to them, and they do it in front of many admins, including Awilley. I just have to accept that they are judged by a different standard. Even before and without the sanction, I do not engage in such behaviors, so my "infractions" have been rare and mild compared to what other editors are regularly allowed to do all the time. Where things can get really dicey are drama boards, which are designed for especially nasty things to be said, and, if backed by good diffs, they are not considered personal attacks. It takes thick skin to survive around here.
5. Drama boards should be used as a last resort. The process is inherently disruptive. Conflict resolution should start on article talk pages, then personal talk pages, and then, if no mutual understanding or apologies are reached, bring others into the picture. One does not have to be a Christian to see the wisdom of Christ's advice:
- "If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector." Matthew 18:15-17 (ESV)
If, after all that, a resolution cannot be achieved, only then should one go to AN/I, AE, etc. Those are nuclear options and very disruptive. They often create more heat than light.
That's why, in all the years I've been here (16 years), I have rarely used those measures, and never without having solid backing among a group of involved editors who agree on the nature of the problem. I'm not about to start a procedure where I'll end up standing alone looking like a fool. I don't trust my judgment that much, but if other editors have also been involved in trying to solve the same problem, then together we can accomplish something at a drama board.
We should seek to de-escalate, rather than escalate, problems. We should not try to get other editors into trouble. We should try to save them and maintain a collegial atmosphere. Seeking to escalate problems is battlefield behavior. It shows ill intent, a violation of AGF. By contrast, those who seek peaceful solutions are not engaged in battlefield behavior.
Only if an editor is recalcitrant and repeatedly refuses to collaborate or follow policy should we go to extreme measures, and then only to protect the project and defend our policies. We all make mistakes, and we should not be punished for occasional missteps. "Judge not lest you be judged by the same measure with which you judge." --

- Have you noticed that both of you keep using the word "attack" many times above, even though others have told you it wasn't an attack? Even after they have told you, you keep repeating it. Just think about it. Your perceptions need to be tweaked, and no one else can do it for you. You can decide to remain angry or not. It takes a conscious decision to see things in a more positive light.
- And MONGO, for some reason you are always the one edging Rusf10 on and inciting them to go after me and take revenge, so you share in all this. That doesn't help them or anyone else. You too have a grudge against me. You didn't use to be like this.
- If you both want to keep carrying a grudge against me, that's on you. It harms both of you more than me, and that's both a sad and unfortunate pattern that keeps repeating itself. A grudge is like cancer in the soul, just like being unforgiving. It will keep gnawing away within you. If you could let go of it you'd both find more peace. We don't have to have wonderful feelings about each other, but you'd be better off without that grudge. Really, just let it go, and take the high road.

- Rusf10, I was told after a one day ban last summer that all non-complimentary personal commentary about another editor--even if you're simply repeating something the editor has said about himself--is considered out of bounds. I found this clarifying at the time, and I've tried to abide by it since then, and I do think it is helpful advice. At that time, on my talk page, there was something of a consensus to reject the distinction made above between personal criticism and personal attacks. We should really be making no such distinction in my view. You don't need to talk about other editors to edit content. But, as expected, I have seen that this standard is really only for people like you and me, and another standard is in place for others. Shinealittlelight (talk) 13:12, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Following up from several pings I got from AN/I the other day, yes the sanction is depricated, and sorry for not logging it. It slipped my mind at the time. In the absence of a formal sanction, you should still consider this a warning about filling vexatious requests for admin intervention against ideological opponents and recognize that if you continue to do so any admin is likely to hit you with a standard sanction like a topic ban. ~Awilley (talk) 23:45, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

William Barr
On the page, "William Barr," I added two lines of important information about the relationship between William Barr, his father Donald Barr, and Jeffrey Epstein. The edits were small, convey uncontroversial and biographically relevant facts, and were backed up with reputable journalistic news sources. You undid my revisions, noting that the article is about William Barr, not Donald Barr. Of course, this objection is irrelevant, since my edits were also about William Barr, and the mention of Donald Barr occurs in a paragraph that already contained details about Donald Barr, who is William Barr's father. If you believe that the article should contain *no* information about Donald Barr, then you should remove that entire paragraph and make your case for doing so on the discussion page.

It appears you have nothing to say about this AE report, such as its description of a user's behaviour, its diffs, or anything like that. To instead take the report as an opportunity to attack the filer over something completely different, as you did here is simply abuse of a noticeboard.

- Rusf10, which "controversial opinions"? That the Democratic Party is centre-right? That's an objective fact. This chart is representative, there are dozens out there like it. Sanders and Warren are centre-left, the mainstream of the Democratic Party is centre-right. Guy (help!) 15:35, 3 May 2020 (UTC)]

- , and others. The Democratic Party is to the right of parties like the Liberal Democrats in the UK, they align well with Germany's CDU. I have no idea why you would consider this remotely controversial. In fact the reason that Sanders and Warren stand out to such an extent is that they are centre-left candidates, whose policies are aligned with the European centre-left social democratic movement. And being centre-left puts them well to the left of the mainstream in the party, though the success of AOC and others does suggest that might be moving as younger voters become more engaged.
- You mustn't view this through a lens of 2020 America. Of course the Democrats appear left by comparison with the 2020-era GOP. But a moment's reflection will show you that this will put Reagan and GWB in the centre, which is absurd.

- Rusf10, and see the below as well. But there are two things here.
- First: is the Democratic Party centre-right? That will depend on the specific analysis used. Straight left-right models give a different answer tot he more modern two-axis models, some of it depends on how you score individual questions, and some on how you define "the Democratic Party" (Biden's politics are to the right of Klobuchar's, for example). One might reasonably ask where the party's platform would lie if unconstrained by the need to be electorally acceptable, given that the Overton window is so far tot he right now. Reasonable people may differ. Centre-right, centre or centre-left, all will depend on how you define the terms and how you define the centre of gravity of the party. I would say centre-right (aligning with the CDU).
- Second: is the view that the Democratic Party is centre-right, controversial? No, it is not. Politics exists outside the US as well. There are plenty of Keynesians in mainstream European politics, and precious few in the US. The Democratic platform remains, as of today, market-driven solutions. Adoption of a universal single-payer healthcare system and improved social security, funded by wealth taxes, would push them into centre-left territory for sure.
- Now, the idea that the Democrats are centre-right might be wrong, by some measures of the various terms involved, maybe they are closer to the centre, but it's defensible.
- As to AOC being a socialist, no, she is not. She calls herself a democratic socialist, which is a different thing, but even that is questionable: I don't think she actually supports universal social ownership, for example. But democratic socialist is as good a label as any for both her and Sanders. Both would be solidly in the mainstream centre-left in Europe, and both are acknowledged as being at the outer edges of the Democratic Party. Guy (help!) 17:11, 4 May 2020 (UTC)]

Political orientation of the US Democratic Party
Hi. I just read this statement of yours. As a European I can tell you that, yes, in many other parts of the world the Democratic Party would be considered more centre-right than centre-left. Sanders and Warren would be considered centre-left but they don't represent the party mainstream, yet. And yes, the Republican Party would be considered far-right in many aspects.

- Okay, I'll ask you what I wanted to ask here in your user talk. I have recently been studying this page, but it isn't up to date. Several reports from the American Politics topic area, such as this one, are missing from that list. I would like to have a complete version of that page to refer to in discussions outside Wikipedia.

Thanks for your reply to the GOP RfC. I fell for the initial scoping of the question where it was implied that we had only these three options. You were correct that we didn't have to pick from any of the above.

Bally Sports website amd app
I'm posting this here because its definitely more of a forum-type post, but what the flying heck is going on with Bally Sports and their website and app? I was very surprised that the "Coming Soon" notice didn't appear on the Bally Sports website the day of the launch date announcement. Further, I'd have had sports stories on the website for a week before the launch, or at least a link to a Sinclair-owned website like Stadium. I'm Assuming Good Faith that this might not have been done for legal reasons, but there is absolutely no credible reason that the site should not have launched at Midnight on March 31. (I know I looked at it expecting a launch.) This looks to be a SNAFU of epic proportions. Heads should roll! BilCat (talk) 18:27, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

No worries. It really was a different time back then — mayors really were once considered "inherently" notable as long as the city surpassed an entirely subjective "regional prominence" test. But there weren't actually any specific standards for how "regional prominence" would be measured, so as long as a city's article made it sound regionally prominent there was no requirement to actually source its mayors beyond technical verification that they had existed as mayors. Yeah, it sounds stupid, given all that we now know about how determined some people are to fill Wikipedia with unsourceable junk — it was stupid, and I say that as someone who was there. But just because our rules have changed, and I've changed along with them, doesn't mean I've always actually remembered all of the old junk I created in the past for the purposes of getting rid of it myself. So, again, no worries. Bearcat (talk) 20:39, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

a man who has the lowest title of honor that can be given in the U.K., below a baron but above a knight, and given from father to son
A little explanation is obviously required. What that means is that baronet is the lowest hereditary title that can be passed on. However, below it are eleven grades of knighthood and damehood, which confer titles, and seven levels of companion and commander (of which CBE is the lowest), which do not but which have long been held to satisfy

- (1) The article already said he was an MP and this was sourced; you just didn't read it properly before nominating.
