:::Bolaño is my favorite author. I'm making my way through ''2666'' in Spanish now - one of the things that makes him such a master of Spanish prose is his unique ability to use the exact word he means to in every situation. The other thing that's interesting in ''2666'' from the Spanish prose perspective is because of the unique circumstances of his life, his writing style changes depending on the geography of where he's writing about/the nationality of the characters. In Mexico he writes using Mexican vocabulary. In Spain, he writes like a Spaniard, the Chilean characters speak chileno etc. Its a work of art on so many levels.{{pb}}Re: his article, yes, I was going to try to update his article a bit by translating from the es.wiki article on him( ].) Main problem is that a lot of the sources are print that aren't easily available in the US and I didn't want to introduce content I didn't have the ability to verify (in part because I'd be translating a summary into a summary in another language, and I feel like there's too much room for error there, even though my Spanish is professional level.) ] (]) 20:10, 24 November 2024 (UTC) |

I don't know if you saw their targeted toward the wikiproject, but ever since ], they've gone from very rare AfD participation since May 2016 to 9 delete votes in the past two weeks, all on women's biographies, so I'm pretty sure they're stalking the Wikiproject's article alerts . Since they don't seem to be familiar with notability policy past GNG (, ]), they're not very effective at trying to get them deleted (or maybe they're trolling or just doing it to feel better?), but it really doesn't seem healthy or productive. |

:: I apologize, I'm still a fairly new editor and thought the discussion on that AfD was enough. I respect your decade-plus of quality content creation, and there's no need for the passive-aggressiveness; it's fine if you don't believe something merits an article, but from an outside viewpoint, the sudden rash of non-policy-based delete !votes just seem very targeted - but as Tony said, disagreements with a wikiproject are fine. God knows I don't agree with the policy to include the rash of stubs on every minor football player who's played in a single national league game. Also, I'm sorry you feel targeted, but I don't exactly keep track of what everyone else is doing; it's just a good launching point to find people to write about and a great community that's taught me a lot about writing and DYKs. Please note that I asked for advice and not any action to be taken against you. I'm not familiar with every recently closed arbcom case or anything, so I thought an admin would be able to clarify. If he'd told me to talk to you about it, I would have. Anyway, I'm going to get off his talk page, but feel free to leave me a message if you'd like to talk about anything at all.

*Yeah, this isn’t really something I want to get involved in. It looks mainly like a content dispute. In terms of the rhetoric: people are allowed to have disputes with WikiProjects (we just had an ArbCom case where basically one editor had an issue with their view of WikiProject coverage of a subject.) Those concerns should avoid being personalized, but I see nothing actionable here. ] (]) 13:48, 27 August 2018 (UTC) |

Unfortunately, there's a disconnect between the amended language, the closure above it, and implementation to date (that I've seen). I knew this amendment would come back to bite people, and I've seen editors and administrators who are a bit too eager to impose the ban. The problem with the amendment is the use of the word "should", a weasely word that implies "not required", i.e., this key sentence: " Publicly documented CheckUser evidence should typically be involved before a user is considered banned in this way." My understanding and interpretation of that language is that "should typically" really means "must". For example, in the non-admin closure, which should (sorry) never have happened in my view, the closer says, "The CU evidence must be publicly documented." Moreover, I don't see how an administrator can impose a community ban on a sockmaster who has, as in this case, never had any publicly documented CU evidence of socking. Every account was blocked behaviorally and tagged as suspected. Ian also, in his usual thorough way, has explained to the user what the whole thing means, so not only should the tag be removed, but the user would have to be reinstructed. Oh yeah, I'd like to reword the policy.--] (]) 13:04, 29 August 2018 (UTC) |

::::I agree, ideally we would ban all editors who make their bias clear in their edits, but then we would have no editors. However, NPOV is somewhat more nuanced and also takes into account how a subject is discussed in reliable sources. NPOV only requires that all significant viewpoints are discussed with weight given based on discussion in reliable sources. I think it is an error to explain this as though the block is being imposed because the community believes the viewpoint is "abhorrent". We cover many viewpoints that many editors find equally abhorrent because NPOV requires it based on discussion of those topics in reliable sources. The content in Misplaced Pages is not determined by what editors, even a consensus of editors, feel is abhorrent. Arguments to include Nazi apologist content usually fails because it is ''false balance'' and editors who ] after this is explained are usually blocked for disruptive editing. I think blocking on these grounds would satisfy the handful of editors who raise objections on procedural grounds when these blocks occur, but the objections are not very vigorous because there is usually a good justification for the block even if support for it is not well-articulated by the participants at ANI,] <sup>(])</sup> 16:25, 2 September 2018 (UTC) |

•{{ec}} There are many troubling or problematic views where there may be 'grey areas' or where the principles of NPOV/NOTCENSORED or even the belief that freedom of expression is so valuable that we must allow expression regardless. However advocating, or even expressing, support for Nazism is a good place to draw a line as to what we as a community will accept. Nazis and those who support them have, as far as I am concerned, severed themselves from the society of humanity and we have no obligation to treat them with fairness or tolerance. No further justification need be given beyond ''"You are a Nazi and neither you nor your views are welcome here"'' followed by an indefinite block. ]] 16:42, 2 September 2018 (UTC) |

Hello Tony, you blocked me for breaking 1RR which I'm not disputing but I wanted to clarify what's happening on some of these related pages. The edit was restoring information which was agreed on the talk page which you can see from this edit as per ], ] and others. |

:Yes, everyone who is not an admin will lack the technical ability to edit the page. Admins are not allowed to edit through protection to impose their prefered version of an article, even if they have the technical ability to do so. ] (]) 21:33, 2 September 2018 (UTC) |
