Hi, I noticed you moved ] and ] to names without the macrons, citing ].

It is used in reliable sources for the companies but not universally, similar to something like ] or ] where we include the diacritic even if it's not universally used in English sources.

== Kevin Campbell ==
Hi. You reverted my Trina Robbins edit. I'm not sure what I am supposed to do here. The original sources currently being used are clearly incorrect. Jan Duursema drew issue 300 of Wonder Woman in 1983. Trina Robbins drew Wonder Woman in 1986. One of these clearly comes three years before the other. Is Misplaced Pages of value if it cites sources that are clearly false? I included a source that mentions Duursema's contribution chronologically (1983). This demonstrates it occurse before Robbins contribution. If the books are not sources - as they are the highest form of accurate information we have - than how can any of the other sources have credibility? ] (]) 19:54, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
:Hello, there must be no ] on Misplaced Pages, i.e. editors may not provide their own analysis in articles. That's exactly what you've done here; you conclude that Trina Robbins must be the second woman to draw Wonder Woman based solely on the fact that a source lists another person as the first. Because Trina Robbins isn't explicitly mentioned in the source as the "second woman to draw Wonder Woman", you're conducting original research. If you're convinced that the is incorrect, you can remove the information altogether. However, please don't restore your revision unless you can find a source that ''explicitly'' supports your claim. I hope that clears things up. ] <sup style="font-size:.7em; line-height:1.5em;"><nowiki>{</nowiki><nowiki>{</nowiki>ping<nowiki>}}</nowiki> me!</sup> (] &#124; ]) 20:07, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
::I started with a simple deletion of the incorrect information as you suggest, but it was reverted as I was deleting "verified" information. Verification from an external source is only of value if the external source is correct. We can see from the publishing dates and the actual book credits (a primary source of information) that the secondary sources of information being used are incorrect. That said, again I am fine with simply deleting the incorrect information - but that will (I suspect) just be reverted).
::I get what you are saying about the interpretation of sources. That's stated clearly in guidelines. But guidelines for sourcing also say "Proper sourcing always depends on context; common sense and editorial judgment are an indispensable part of the process."
::The fact that Duursema has a credit drawing Wonder Woman (and that this credit IS posted on official, secondary sources - https://dc.fandom.com/Wonder_Woman_Vol_1_300) clearly shows that the information about Robbins (through third-party news sources) is wrong. This just falls under the idea that we is used here should be dictated by common sense first and foremost. ] (]) 20:21, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, you have reverted the changes that removed the claims that Grzegorz Braun was a far-right politician. Although the citations that were meant to prove that only claimed that he was far-right, but never argued for why he is so. In one of the citations, it was said that he fought pro-LGBT propaganda and was against Jewish restitution claims, although those aren't distinct far-right positions, as you can be against both while at the same time holding non-extreme political views, as for instance you can be against Jewish restitution claims not because of the fact that those claims were pushed by this specific group, but because legitimacy for those claims has already expired - making it independent from the group pushing the claim. So this is the part that I don't understand, why were those sources used to prove that he was far-right, when they didn't prove it but only claimed that he was far-right? Is a claim from a popular news article sufficient evidence for wikipedia? ] (]) 21:51, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
:{{u|Ekcja}}, to answer your last question, if the publication is deemed ], then, generally, yes. Sources don't have to "prove" anything. If reliable, independent secondary sources commonly describe Braun as "far-right", then Misplaced Pages should reflect that. If you find that individual sources contradict themselves or are otherwise flawed, you can raise the issue at the article talk page and seek other editors' input. ] <sup style="font-size:.7em; line-height:1.5em;"><nowiki>{</nowiki><nowiki>{</nowiki>ping<nowiki>}}</nowiki> me!</sup> (] &#124; ]) 22:18, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Gorillaz/Hardcastle

In regards to the revisions to Lee Hardcastle - what's the difference in how he's still attributed as an artist on Tranz, but can't be on his own page? 24.125.26.243 (talk) 23:09, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

You cited a Fandom article, which features user-generated content and WP:FACEBOOK. Neither of these sources can be used in this case because they are unreliable. Throast (talk | contribs) 00:26, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

I applaud you for your continued commitment to the truth. I am so sorry that a particular someone has been threatening and shit-talking you for doing your job. I support you and I love you <3 2605:A601:A9E2:E000:CC63:43A7:EAB9:364D (talk) 18:26, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Kanye West edit requests

Hi, I know I'm going out on a limb here by just asking you to let me edit Kanye's Misplaced Pages article. But I've noticed that the people in charge on editing have left out a lot of information in the sections about 2016, which was a pivotal moment in his life. If we can work together to come to an agreement then that'd be great. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tronfa (talk • contribs) 19:17, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey Tronfa, nobody is in charge of any article on Misplaced Pages. It so happens that some editors who probably have the article on their watchlist are more willing to respond to edit requests than others. That said, if you'd like to add anything specific to the article and don't yet have the necessary user rights to edit it directly, feel free to make a request on Talk:Kanye West following the steps here and using this template.

Kevin Campbell

Hi I edited and removed information on Kevin Campbells Misplaced Pages page because a. It was untrue and gives a false impression of the relationship with Mark Morrison and b. There was no court injunction or dispute with Mark Morrison. I know this as a fact because I was in the room with both Kevin and Mark at that time advising them both. I would be grateful if you would remove once again that which I edited. Thank you. Robert 90.247.92.2 (talk) 15:41, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I advise you refrain from editing any articles on Misplaced Pages about subjects you have personal or professional relationships with as this presents a conflict of interest. The information you removed seems to be supported by reliable sources. I suggest raising the issue on the article talk page using {{Edit COI}} and providing independent reliable sources to support your claim. Note that these sources need to be published; your own testimony does not count as a reliable source. Throast (talk | contribs) 16:04, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

Helmuth Nyborg and far-right

Hi, I have significantly updated the Helmuth Nyborg article with reliable sources . I believe that "far-right" is warranted for a description in the lead. Would you agree with this? 51.6.193.169 (talk) 19:47, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

I've responded on the article talk page. Please consider the compromise made by the other IP. Also, while acknowledging that you were not the instigator, I ask you to refrain from personally attacking other editors. Throast (talk | contribs) 20:40, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
Could you please give your opinion about the latest attempt to add the "far-right politician" label in the article's first sentence? On the talk page, we seemed to agree for a while that the wording I proposed here was the best summary, but now there is another attempt to restore the 51.6.193.169 IP's original change. 84.212.187.87 (talk) 16:38, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
The label should not be included pending consensus, so feel free to remove it for that reason. I've stated that I'm opposed to the "far-right" label in the lead sentence and have proposed a compromise which nobody (neither IP nor other participants) have commented on. However, I don't feel passionate either way and will probably not comment any further. If editors keep restoring the label without discussion, WP:RFC might be the way forward. Throast (talk | contribs) 18:58, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
As I said on the article talk page, I think additional RFCs or noticeboard threads would not be appropriate after the existing noticeboard thread already failed to make a consensus for inclusion. Of the two people who came to that article from the fringe theories noticeboard, there is one (you) who opposes including it in the first sentence, and one (Joe Roe) who thinks it should be mentioned in the lead section, but also supported my proposed compromise. But I also think I shouldn't revert the additions more than three times, even though BLP issues are an exception to the three-revert rule. My next revert will be my third in about 24hrs. Can you suggest any other solutions, if the material in the first sentence keeps being restored after I next remove it? 84.212.187.87 (talk) 04:15, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
You should try hashing it out with Generalrelative first. They've interpreted my "bottom up" comment to be about the "far-right" label, which it was not, so there seems to be major confusion/miscommunication there. The label is clearly contentious, and a single editor's judgment should not override the discussion on the talk page. If it gets restored again, I suggest requesting full protection (of the version without the "far-right" label in the lead sentence) at WP:RFPP pending consensus. Throast (talk | contribs) 08:23, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
Do you still think reverting again and then requesting page protection is the right solution? The user now restoring the material in the first sentence is the same one who added it there recently. It looks to me like someone also is using a blatant sock puppet to try to poison the well for undoing this change, and I'm not sure what's the correct way to react to that. 84.212.187.87 (talk) 22:39, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
I suggest requesting full page protection and briefly describing the content dispute + linking the version without the disputed content. That way, an admin can decide the appropriate course of action, and you're in the clear regarding reverts. However, looking at how the talk page discussion is developing, consensus seems to be turning against you. If your RFPP is declined, which it very well might be, I strongly recommend moving on from the article altogether. Throast (talk | contribs) 07:50, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

166 Medium Regiment (India)

I have restored the version of the article 166 Medium Regiment (India) before editing by ODSTsog. As far as I could see, edits made by other editors, including you, during the period when ODSTsog was active, were essentially reverts of ODSTsog's editing, rather than substantially new edits, but if I have inadvertently undone significant contributions of yours then please accept my apology, and, of course, restore the contributions. JBW (talk) 20:23, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

JBW, that's perfectly fine, I would have done the same had I looked at the edit history. I think one of these edits popped up at recent changes, and I reverted without looking into it further. Thanks! Throast (talk | contribs) 20:35, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

Discussion about "Label" or "distributor"

Hi Throast. In the recent discussion about "Release history" table, Andrew318 said that those are distributors, not labels. So if you have any further comments. Regards. 2001:D08:2910:FB3C:17E0:D15C:D305:FC85 (talk) 10:21, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
