Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 04:31, 28 November 2014

Contribution to GamerGate ArbCom case

I recommend that you revert or change the title of the new section you created in Arbitration/Requests/Case/GamerGate/Evidence. Normally they only let you post in your section titled "Evidence presented by <your name here>" --Obsidi (talk) 02:41, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

This is not how you use that page . Your contributions will most likely be removed for not following the template and probably also for being a freshly created account. I suggest removing them yourself. Weedwacker (talk) 02:44, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

I appreciate that you're trying to help "your side", but I think your edits will unfortunately be made an example of, in a bad way, to demonstrate off-site coordination or something like that. They are not helping your case. Many of the references are not considered reliable sources by Misplaced Pages - they will be ignored. Please, remove your edits. starship.paint ~ regal 03:08, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

My links that circulate in the GamerGate hashtag on Twitter frequently aren't 'reliable' but Gawker is listed as a 'reliable source' on the Wiki itself? No, my entry stays. I don't know my boss's login password for the WTF Magazine wiki or I'd have used it but I'm deep in this story and I know what's reliable and what's not. I'm not pushing an agenda. Just putting the truth out. CwbinTn (talk) 03:18, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

I understand your intentions. I, too, have tried to make the GamerGate article more neutral. But I don't think you really understand what Misplaced Pages considers to be reliable and what's not. That's different from what you consider to be reliable. I've been on Misplaced Pages since 2011, I believe I understand the policies better than you do. starship.paint ~ regal 03:36, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

CwbinTn, regardless of the reliability of your sources, my understanding is that the purpose of the evidence page is to provide evidence of the wrongdoings of editors, not simply of what the article content ought (not) to include. 76.64.35.209 (talk) 03:47, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

I understand and would like to see if the mods could just remove my post entirely as to not muddy the waters. I'm helping out the operators of the gamergate.me site with things past 2 months and I'm new to Misplaced Pages and don't want to cause more confusion since the issue is already mired enough. I don't want to add to it. Again, If you guys can, just delete my entry and I'll leave it to the pro editors with the long-standing accts on the gamergate.me side edit / present evidence.
