I want to note that 90% of the 50 edits you have made to Wikipedia since registering have been to the articles about author and travel writer

I am trying to work with you, but your challenges of the

MOS:PUFFERY. I would also note that the project is not 'her project' as you have just suggested in talk:Knepp Wildland, it is a big project with many people involved. I will ask you more directly. Do you have an personal connection to this project or more specifically to Isabella Tree, because if you do you should definitely avoid editing this article. If you don't have any personal reason to be editing the article then I find it very strange that you persist arguing on this small point when there are so many other areas on Wikipedia that need attention.

Can I also encourage you to do two things: Firstly to create some content on you user page – it really doesn't need to be more than 10 words if that is your preference, but a red link to a page contributor doesn't send a great message to other contributors. Secondly, can I would encourage you to widen the the range of articles you contribute to and try improving them as per

WP:BOLD rather than simply tagging them. Tagging is better than nothing, but articles can sit with tags on them for a very long time and it is much better to have a go at improving the articles directly. Often you will be left to get on with it, sometimes other people will engage with your work and sometimes you will find any changes are vigorously resisted. I sometimes walk away from articles which seem to be heavily defended and move on to another one simply because it isn't worth the effort. Anyway, nice to meet you, thanks for contributing and see you around from time to time! PeterEastern (talk) 12:21, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply

Thank you very much for your advice. I'll try to contribute more and add to my Talk page. I'm still learning with Wikipedia, so I'm still making mistakes and feeling how things work. No worries about the misunderstanding. Honestly I'm wrong on the internet 19x a day. Stix1776 (talk) 04:18, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am checking and adding references on Holodomor in modern politics, there is no need to remove content.  // Timothy :: talk  16:57, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate it. I do believe those countries were added disengenously though, as the source does not support what Wikipedia editors have written. Separate lists seem more honest. Anyhow, I'm logging off for a few days for work. See you later and have a good weekend. Stix1776 (talk) 17:01, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Stix1776.  // Timothy :: talk  06:16, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ymblanter, lol I have little interest in sticking around this area. TBH, this is not my area of interest or expertise. But thank you for this information.Stix1776 (talk) 11:18, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

According to the WHO (page 2/18) at https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/978-92-4-000854-0 (you have to download the entire 160 page document): "Risk compensation. There has been no evidence of significant risk compensatory behaviour post-circumcision – that is, more risky sexual behaviour following circumcision driven by perception of lower HIV risk." The WHO is an authoritative source, and should take precedence over the primary source referenced. The link in the article was to the summary of this longer document, but the full document is only available as a download link. Petersmillard (talk) 15:48, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I understand now. As I wrote in the Talk, this wasn't the source in the paragraph.Stix1776 (talk) 16:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Circumcision and HIV. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

              WP:V, as the source is debatable but not terrible. I talked about content on the talk page of the article, as I'm supposed to. Anyhow, I find you to be very insulting, and I'm requesting that you step away from this issue. Prcc27 and I have stepped away from edit warring. This is not worth the time you're putting into it.

              • The source is terrible: an old, non peer-reviewed, letter. Trying to use it to undercut current medical consensus in a top=quality source is obviously very bad.

Thank you for reminding me. Apparently, I have a bad memory. People tend to forget things that are extremely unpleasant, and this is one of them. As about the page about Furr, I would rather avoid it for a while, so you can resolve the content disagreement with other contributors. My very best wishes (talk) 14:13, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Remember that it was you who pinged me at the corresponding talk page earlier. That's why I started editing it. But in any case, I self-reverted there, and I am certain we can easily resolve any content disagreements out there in a future if I return to editing it. Not so with page about Furr because there are several other contributors involved. My very best wishes (talk) 16:08, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@My very best wishes, I was aware that I pinged you on the Antisemitism in the Soviet Union page. Sorry it was a question about the text of a reference that you made and I was unaware of the TB at the time. At the very least, I can't imagine an admin caring that you responded to a ping.

I later noticed that you were topic-banned for that issue, which was why I just went bold and changed the page. I apologize that I didn't let you know about my thinking.Stix1776 (talk) 00:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's OK. This is all my fault. But I hope you are satisfied by my response about it. I also re-checked your quotation of a source on BLPNB, and replied about my reading of it, but again I would rather refrain from further editing of the page about Furr for a while. My very best wishes (talk) 00:43, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's OK. I put the full quote from the book in the source, if you don't mind.Stix1776 (talk) 01:42, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
