El Goonish Shive

You mentioned on your user page that you're looking for a little help with bringing the El Goonish Shive article up to Wikipedia standards, anything I can do to help?--The Navigators (talk)-May British Rail Rest in Peace. 23:49, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

Thanks. It's been a while since I've logged onto the wiki. Really anything and everything can be of use, I'm pretty new to wikis and have little idea of what I want the article to look like. Mèþru (talk) 19:18, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Welcome, well the good news: The framework is actually pretty solid, the main thing is we need to clean up/update, simplify the synopsis, . (Since it's almost 10 years old, the plot has moved. First bad news: I'm absurdly behind on the series. (I've been catching up, I'm in 2013, and my memory's not the greatest to be trying to do a recap/synopsis. We also need to simplify, if people want detailed plot descriptions, the EGS wiki can help them.)

Now the bad news: The 'lack of notability' problem, and I'm actually stumped by that one. I did track down The History of Webcomics, and it does mention EGS, however it's like two sentences. Not really enough for us to make an article on. The other two articles in don't have good sources either. I'm actually baffled by the lack of information on the series. Further, because this got kicked for 'lack of notability' we need to have 'ducks in a row' on that. (Apologizes if this reply seems to state the obvious, I'm also mulling the project over, I haven't thought about it in a month or two. I start doing some of the cleaning up (getting rid of bad links, updating dates.)

(Also, tip: You can use {{reply to|username}} to tell editors you've replied. It's useful if you don't know if the person will see the reply, like older messages. Template:Reply to has more info about using it.)--The Navigators (talk) 10:01, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Invite to stuff!`

Oh my gosh, THANK YOU for joining the Webcomics work group!! Did you know that we have a WP:Discord? A bunch of us collaborate over there on the #wpcomics channel. I never used discord before, but it's easy to learn and great to use to talk with awesome folks!! –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 16:26, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Contentious topics restrictions are broadly construed--if you have to think about whether a topic may be covered by the restriction, or refine your wording to avoid mentioning it, you should assume that it is covered by the restriction. Please also see WP:GAME--making rapid edits in order to meet 500/30 in order to participate in editing this topic is going to be interpreted as disruptive editing that will result in a loss of editing privileges. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 15:47, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

I was trying to make my argument entirely about whether ADL is reliable for antisemitism, mentioning it only as an example of how one can find the ADL controversial but still reliable. I do not intend to become a very active editor again, and there is no need to worry about my editing in a way that intentionally violates Wikipedia policy. I may be unaware of policy, especially as there have been changes in the years I have not been active, but as you have seen in the noticeboard talk page I reach out when confused and try to comply.

I believe many of the people involved in the RfC are not acting in good faith, but both on the off chance I am wrong and to maintain civility I act as if they were in good faith anyway. All I ask is people extend me the same courtesy. They may believe privately that I'm a sock, a paid shill, a racist extremist, etc all they want, but they shouldn't act on such beliefs if I have not yet demonstrated bad faith.
