Hey Kosh. There are so many issue with that statement that I felt it important to drop by. | |||
*{{xt|policy '''should ''' be enforced '''as written'''}} - from a high level ] is a guideline and ] is policy. The principle is what matters, not exact wording of the rules. Disputes are solved by discussion, not strict adherence to the rules. Does that make sense? The "rules" are just a description of what's happened before and likely will happen again... generally the right thing to do, but not be followed blindly. No matter whether you're right or wrong on the underlying issue, not understanding this fundamental principle is the reason you are blocked. | |||
*So, on to the underlying issue. Is the content on page in violation of POLEMIC? Honestly, I'd say no. POLEMIC '''in bold''' refers to '''Very divisive or offensive material not related to encyclopedia editing'''. Is what he's saying offensive? Barely. Very divisive? Not really. ''AND'' it's related to encyclopedic editing. It just doesn't fit in that section. It's not targeted at individuals or a specific group, let alone attacking or vilifying them. It's not a pre-meditated nasty attack, it's a person ranting on their way out the door. I don't agree with a word of it, but it's important to let people express themselves in situations like that. | |||
This way of thinking is fundamental to Misplaced Pages, it's why IAR exists. ]<sup>TT</sup>(]) 11:15, 29 September 2015 (UTC) | |||

I appreciate your edits to ], but the material you keep adding to the article is written in an ] and ventures off into ] land. Furthermore, the reference you provided is from a report written by a high schooler, which clearly does not meet our ] policy. Call it a gut feeling, but I don't think a neutral Misplaced Pages article should have a feel-good ending to it. :-) <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 21:22, 28 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
:The notability of the publisher does not guarantee the reliability of the author. It might be published by a noteworthy organization, but the article is written by a teenager. Let's consider the article on its merits alone: would you actually use a high school journalism report as a source in a Misplaced Pages article? Hopefully, you would say no, based on thee principal tenet of ]: "Articles should rely on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. This means that we only publish the opinions of reliable authors, and not the opinions of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves." Furthermore, per ] and ], primary sources (such as interviews) are not considered "reliable for statements of interpretation, analysis or conclusion". In that case, we would need ]. <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 21:51, 28 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
::The sentence taken from the source, "Lauderdale considers reaching out to the community, like telling aspiring students about the work it takes to get to where he is and the endurance it takes to get there, to be a big part of his career." falls into the realm of "interpretation, analysis or conclusion". Per policy, primary sources aren't considered reliable for statements of interpretation, analysis or conclusion. Also, how does the second sentence add anything to the encyclopedia? It seems like a highly trivial detail, which reads like ]. <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 22:35, 28 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::You misunderstood me. The policy refers to statements of interpretation, analysis or conclusion from the source itself. That's exactly what the sentence is. The author of the paper is not stating fact (Lauderdale was born in XX place), she's offering her own personal commentary in claiming that Lauderdale's community outreach to be a big part of his career. If his service to the community is so profound, you shouldn't have any trouble finding a ] to back up the claim. That will satisfy my concerns. <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 23:38, 28 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
::::Err, no, you're still not understanding my points. From ], "Primary sources are not considered reliable for statements of interpretation, analysis or conclusion (for example, a work of fiction is not a reliable source for an analysis of the characters in the work of fiction)." As I mentioned above, the sentence in question "Lauderdale considers reaching out to the community, like telling aspiring students about the work it takes to get to where he is and the endurance it takes to get there, to be a big part of his career." falls into the realm of "interpretation, analysis or conclusion". The article by Angelique Gayle is by definition a ] (it's an interview and then some). Including the sentence in the article does not meet policy because the Gayle article is a primary source and the line which you cited from the article is not fact, but opinion/analysis of the writer (if it had been fact, why couldn't she have just quoted Dwight Lauderdale to begin with?). In addition, my point regarding ] was in reference to this line: "Sometimes, it is just for the fun of it, like when he judged a Jamaican Jerk Festival at Markham Park Sunrise, Florida on September 24, 2008." It's quite clearly personal commentary, and it's unencyclopedic. So far, my arguments fit well within policy, and I have yet to find any solid ground in your rebuttals. I'm going to ask others who have edited the article to also participate in this discussion. <span style="background:white;color:#007FFF;font-family:Georgia;">] </span><sub>(])</sub> 01:37, 29 December 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::::I endorse this explanation. Interviews are considered ] which are not very useful for writing encyclopedic articles. In addition, the constant ] of this article, exemplified by reverting other editors, calling them trolls or vandals, and refusing to listen to their comments is getting a little tiresome. ] 01:43, 29 December 2008 (UTC) | |||

I have deleted ], a page you created.

Only such as ] have their own editnotices. If you think ] needs one, go to ] and follow the instructions there; however, the level of vandalism does not appear to be high enough to warrant it. | |||
Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Misplaced Pages about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: ), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Misplaced Pages community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Misplaced Pages everywhere) Regards from on meta. | |||

Master KoshVarlon, I didn't think that my splittings would become such a big deal. I made such splits on ], ], ], just to name a few, and didn't imagine that I would be bullied and shouted around, because there aren't that many users who patrol the talk pages, so I decided to be bold and split them. The user who has reported me is not a bad person, but I think this is just diminiutive and disparaging, concerning my lengthy experience, working here on Misplaced Pages, and also it is delay for the work on these articles. I beg you not to block me, because in fact, I intend to continue such work and splits of lengthy bibliographies and in fact to be more uncompromising with the user who reported me, because I kind of look at the whole matter more as a "cavil retail" than a serious Misplaced Pages matter. | |||

:::I don't see what part of this you don't comprehend. Just tacking a source onto the end of a sentence doesn't make it "sourced".

You can find a source that says he judged the competition, but you cannot find a source to give you his motives. In addition, there is no way this sentence is appropriate in any Misplaced Pages article: "His father in particular taught him the importance of being himself." Let me put this as simply as possible.

::: Adding a source on to any claim shows that this claim is referenced to a reliable publication and not a product of the editor's research, and that's just what I did. I quoted word-for-word the source. | |||
The source ''itself'' ascribed his motives. The source can do that, I '''cannot'''. Attempting to find out what his motives are would be OR on my behalf and it would be reverted. However, an article which states word-for-word a motive is different. It's simple. If I have a reliable source, it's not OR.
