I think you forgot to sign here. Joyous! Noise! 21:15, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

RFCs

I highly recommend that you start similar RFCs for Cate Blanchett, Meryl Streep, and the likes. That could be like a good movement toward a fair approach to all articles. Shahid • 10:53, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Actually a good idea, it should be removed from those articles as well --FMSky (talk) 11:09, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

I meant it for real, didn't mean to question your fairness. Still, I don't completely agree with you. Misplaced Pages should be neutral but factual positive commentary isn't necessarily bad as long as it is a good summary of the article. Who could ever doubt the fact that Streep is regarded as one of the most talented actresses today. Shahid • 11:21, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

RSN discussion on The Shortcut source for Sweet Baby Inc.

I've noticed that you didn't comment anything here, if you have some time to look through the discussion - see if you'd like to add something, and please provide your input!

P.S. But please stay calm and civil :)

Have a nice one --Moon darker (talk) 05:36, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Please watch WP:3RR at the Sweet Baby page

Just a word to the wise--I know all too well how easy it can be to lose track of one's edits within a 24-hour period. Cheers. Dumuzid (talk) 19:31, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

I get it. But I'm making unrelated edits to this page. They are not "warring", these are completely seperate issues in different areas of the article that i'm adressing in hopes of making the article more neutral --FMSky (talk) 19:33, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

I understand, and that's why I didn't template you or say I was going to report you. I won't. But 3RR is a bright line rule, especially on a page that has been contentious. Even a bunch of unrelated reverts around the page could very easily get an editor in trouble. I don't think I am telling you anything you don't know, but for me, reminders are helpful. Cheers. Dumuzid (talk) 19:37, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Sure and trust me I initally didnt want to get this invested into the article. Its just tough when every good-faith change (even minor ones) is immediately reverted, so I'm just trying to find some common ground--FMSky (talk) 19:38, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Tupac changes

I edited Tupac's lead using sources that contained the opinion of an academic, what's more even an administrator told me that I have good sources. Why consider this a puffery? I have tons of other academic sources that describe Tupac as both a very influential activist and one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Misplaced Pages should be a page of information, not a page of personal ideas. Just as it is written to other artists in the lead that they are among the most influential artists of the last century, it must also be written to Tupac. If not, what are academics for? Tupac was a very influential figure culturally and in various fields. Pier1999 (talk) 10:50, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
