[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Joyous!. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Kristy Swanson seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Joyous! Noise! 04:02, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Kristy Swanson. Thank you. Splatterxl – talk 20:05, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Splatterxl the only person making anything "controversial" is you. But don't fret, I will indeed add a reference source under each sentence I add when I have time to go back later... including where Swanson herself is directly quoted. Thank you. 75.140.183.47 (talk) 21:07, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1. The burden is on the person adding the content to provide a source.
  2. It's poor form to add a reference source under each sentence I add when I have time to go back later.
  3. It's not that Wikipedia thinks you are wrong, or lying; it's just that you have to help Wikipedia vouch for your edits.
Add an atmosphere of collegiality, and you've got a strong foundation for a crowd-sourced encyclopedia. Cheers. signed, Willondon (talk) 21:46, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
1. You can go to nearly any page on Wikipedia and plainly see that not every statement or sentence about a person or subject matter follows a source link. This is especially true when it's about a person that has been public about certain beliefs or statements and doesn't dispute said opinions (as is the case in my edits).
2. Poor form to include the sources when I re-edit? Wait, that is what was being asked... hence, why I said I would add it all next time I make the edit.
3. See number 2. I will be sure to do so! 75.140.183.47 (talk) 05:35, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Kristy Swanson, you may be blocked from editing. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 06:14, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You need to stop, respectfully. Wikipedia isn't about being neutral (that statement itself implies bias), it's about being factual and accurate no matter the subject matter. And I have since added sources for each statement that I added. None of this is my "personal commentary". I did not make up said statements. Swanson was quoted on her own X (formerly known as Twitter) page and there are numerous articles from reputable news sources quoting her as well (again, sources were properly added). To threaten to block me from editing after following Wikipedia's own guidelines is against policy. 75.140.183.47 (talk) 06:20, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will also add, if you continue to delete properly sourced information, I will report you. You are not supposed to abuse said powers simply because you can and/or do not like the statements (statements provided by the person related to said article). Do not delete my contributions again, they are in line with Wikipedia's guidelines. 75.140.183.47 (talk) 06:22, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Kristy Swanson. Your sources are a tweet and HuffPo for a political topic, about which you make extensive personal commentary. Please see WP:HUFFPOLITICS for a longer discussion of reliable sources in political areas. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 06:34, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I reviewed recent edits. The commentary did not come from the editor, it came from the article and it was related to statements the subject matter has personally tweeted. First-person tweets is as fact-based as you can get. Additionally, HuffPost is an established news website, founded nearly 20 years ago, and is no less credible than other sources listed on this Wikipage (i.e. People Magazine, kenboxerlive.com). That said, the recent additions were properly sourced, so they should indeed remain. Anybody who removes non-inflammatory contributions which are based on factual information and properly sourced should be considered for blocking at this point. It all seems to be getting a bit personal and *I think* we can all agree, we do not want that on Wikipedia. CoryMH87 (talk) 06:48, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
