Thanks for your edits at ]. I found it especially interesting that "traditionalists" are not anti-communist or opposed to the ideal Marxist society — I wish all of this would contextualized and made more clear in most Communist-related articles because many users and readers simply take it as given that they were a form of socialism, rather than {{tq|"bureaucratic absolutism" almost Prussian in nature, where the "monarch was dependent on his bureaucracy"}} and that {{tq|the Soviet Union developed a "propensity for authoritarianism" after Marxian principles ''had failed to be established'' }} (Lewin), or {{tq|a tsarist autocracy, emphasized that the Soviet Union was not guided by socialism or ideology but more by ruling class}}, to quote your improving additions to the aforementioned article. | |||
As an example, when one links Stalin to Lenin, one then links it to Marx, when I have read that Werth does trace the roots of Stalinist violence in Lenin, but Lenin is seen as a successor not of Marx but of Nechayev (who was criticized by Marx as "barracks communism"), and Werth emphasizes specific features of pre-revolutionary Russian society. I wish Communist-related articles would better contextualize this and make such distinctions rather than generalize like Communism's "real socialism" was indeed the only form of socialism in practice or that Marx was to blame for all its victims. The fact that so many users seem to believe this show that even "anti-Communist" sources and "traditionalists" are misread and given a more extreme picture than they are, and that Communist-related articles must be improved. ] (]) 20:38, 8 December 2021 (UTC) |

KylieTastic (talk) 15:21, 28 January 2020 (UTC)Got a quote?
I noted your edit to Pelorus Jack in which you said he was named after the Pelorus marine navigation aid, and not Pelorus Sound where he lived.. Seems logical but it's at odds with every attribution I have ever seen. Is it possible you can quote here what the Breverton book source says? Moriori (talk) 01:27, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- 2012 edition, "Pelorus Jack" entry . "At that time, when navigation was difficult, a 'pelorus' was a navigational instrument used to complement compass readings. Jack was so competent at guiding the ships that there was no need of the pelorus, and he became known as Pelorus Jack as a consequence". Admittedly, it's a tertiary source. Rauisuchian (talk) 01:49, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I have amended the page accordingly. Moriori (talk) 22:58, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Greetings
Hello @Rauisuchian:! I've recently been involved in a small editing war on the Cryptozoology page, and your edit of the cryptozoology in art section for the page (which got deleted in a very similar fashion to the way my edit was deleted) has been brought up. If you're available, please consider giving the latest section in the Cryptzoology talk page a read. Also, I quite enjoyed your now-deleted addition to the article, it was not only relevant to the page but it was also very well sourced, contrary to what the users who deleted it claimed. Please be well. Joe (talk) 20:42, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. I checked it out and left a comment. Though, be careful not to get into editing wars. After the first revert, just go to the talk page. Rauisuchian (talk) 15:27, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
- Cheers for the advice and for the suggestions on the proposal. Joe 02:38, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
'Soviet Empire' edits
Hi Rauisuchian. I'm here checking if you're still interested in discussing my edits in Soviet Empire as per WP:BRD as I'd like to reach consensus, be it with you or alone.
- Fasscass (talk) 18:25, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- I have responded on that talk page. Rauisuchian (talk) 08:19, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
Brand new logo for Warner Music Group
I work for Warner Music Group. I see you have contributed in the past to the Warner Music Group article. There’s a brand new logo for WMG. I uploaded it to Wikimedia Commons as the representative of the company, but I know I’m not supposed to directly edit Misplaced Pages articles when I have a conflict of interest. Would you be able to take a look at the request to swap out the old logo and logo caption at Talk:Warner Music Group#Help switching to new logo ? Thank you so much for your consideration.Music2022 (talk) 00:08, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Soviet and Communist studies
Thanks for your edits at Soviet and Communist studies. I found it especially interesting that "traditionalists" are not anti-communist or opposed to the ideal Marxist society — I wish all of this would contextualized and made more clear in most Communist-related articles because many users and readers simply take it as given that they were a form of socialism, rather than "bureaucratic absolutism" almost Prussian in nature, where the "monarch was dependent on his bureaucracy"
and that the Soviet Union developed a "propensity for authoritarianism" after Marxian principles had failed to be established
(Lewin), or a tsarist autocracy, emphasized that the Soviet Union was not guided by socialism or ideology but more by ruling class
, to quote your improving additions to the aforementioned article.
As an example, when one links Stalin to Lenin, one then links it to Marx, when I have read that Werth does trace the roots of Stalinist violence in Lenin, but Lenin is seen as a successor not of Marx but of Nechayev (who was criticized by Marx as "barracks communism"), and Werth emphasizes specific features of pre-revolutionary Russian society.
