Working Group on Syria, Propaganda and Media (SPM)
A Misplaced Pages article on the SPM was begun and speedily deleted about a month ago. As it is, citations about the group may be equally relevant to Piers Robinson's article as those concerning Tim Hayward and Tara McCormack, but risks excessive duplication. I am concentrating the most detailed version of events to this article because it would seem to be the least likely of the three to be subject to an Afd nomination. In my opinion, the situation is not satisfactory in the long term, and should be raised for the community's consideration. Philip Cross (talk) 16:42, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
Padraig Reidy Article
Just removed the quote of this article because, on a close reading of Reidy's article together with a reading of Robinson's Guardian article, the quote is not borne out in Robinson's text and is very misleading. I suggest this quote was added to this Misplaced Pages article in order to cast its subject in a poor light. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tibloc (talk • contribs) 17:01, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
We use reliable sources on Misplaced Pages. In these unusual circumstances, with continual and suspicious activity from multiple troll accounts, I shall not bother linking to the WP:IRS page. "Close reading": you cannot even spell Padraig Reidy's name. Please try again. Philip Cross (talk) 01:29, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
This is not about "troll accounts", it's about attempting to make Misplaced Pages a fair and reliable source of information. I object to your attempts to cast individuals with whom you disagree in a poor light. Again, the quote from Reidy is misplaced and should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tibloc (talk • contribs) 07:48, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
I have taken note of your point and have not reverted. Would be a nice concession from you to correct the earlier typos concerning Padraig's name. Philip Cross (talk) 07:54, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
The point that is in dispute is whether the White Helmets are a legitimate humanitarian organisation. If so, then they are indeed entitled to protection under the law. The point that Beeley and others have made is that they are not entitled to this protection as they are demonstrably not a humanitarian organisation. This needs to be made clear somehow otherwise the article appears to make a grievous smear against Robinson. --Tibloc (talk) 17:17, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
Vanessa Beeley is not considered a reputable source on this website or by any publication or broadcaster with a serious reputation. Try again with another excuse. Philip Cross (talk) 01:32, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
I suspect that, by definition, you cast as 'unreliable' and 'serious' any source in terms of whether there is an agreement with a particular view of the White Helmets. This is 'not about excuses, it's about using Misplaced Pages in a fair way and not using it to smear people with whom you disagree. --Tibloc (talk) 07:57, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
Eva Bartlett's Bracelet and Weasel Words
"Eva Bartlett (who reputedly wears an “I ♥ Bashar” bracelet)". Unsourced and "weasel words". Whether true or not, tt's also irrelevant in an article discussing Robinson. --Tibloc (talk) 08:38, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
I can wait for you to be blocked again without feeling the need to report you. Page is probably heading for another 30/500 block anyway. Philip Cross (talk) 11:17, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
"Again"? I've never been blocked and this is my only Misplaced Pages account. It seems that you are the one playing fast and loose with both the spirit of Misplaced Pages and its editing conventions. I would be very pleased to have an unbiased party look at both this matter and your other, quite frankly, egregious edits elsewhere. --Tibloc (talk) 11:40, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
I'm sorry but you will have to try harder than that. You may have heard of the word "disinformation", but I don't know how to render it in Cyrillic script. Perhaps you can help me? Philip Cross (talk) 11:53, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
