I'm puzzled by your response to my message. I attempted to present it in a friendly tone, & I meant it as a bit of advice. Edits to political articles can -- & often are -- taken in the wrong way. A simple response was all I felt was needed to avoid this issue & establish that your were making these edits in good faith; deleting my question only raises suspicions. Editors who don't engage in discussions with other editors at all end up having a bad experience at Wikipedia, something I don't want anyone to have. So I'll repeat my request for an explanation of your edits, & hope to see an answer here. -- llywrch (talk) 16:42, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
- You wrote
Okey I found some pages with Errors in the Numbers so I Did the Math and fixed them.
- A suggestion: Unless there is a reason not to, respond to posts on your talk page there. That way third parties can follow the discussion more easily. Thanks for the response. -- llywrch (talk) 17:07, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
- Schwede66, Llywrch, what do you make of all these edits about minutiae, like this one? The editor has made dozens of them, without explanation or talk page consensus. Alexjon, you should stop this, at least until a. it is clear that you have consensus for this (I don't think Impru20 thinks you do) and b. you explain what you are doing in edit summaries. Please let it be clear that your edits look disruptive. Drmies (talk) 00:47, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Drmies, I think the editor is well-intentioned but does not (with one exception, I think) engage in discussion, undertakes edits that are often controversial, and is thus a net-negative. When you go through the talk page history, there are various attempts to get the editor to engage in discussions about their edits. My patience has expired and a block for disruptive editing may be in order. Schwede66 01:34, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- [From my talk page:] "Okey I will stop fixing the Spain elections."
- But that's not the point. First of all, the question is whether anything needs fixing. Some of your edits are to change these numbers--but two digits after the period isn't necessarily "fixing" anything. And besides that, there is the issue of explaining what it is that you are doing. Please remember that this is a collaborative project: it is incumbent on us that we work with other editors and make it clear what we are doing. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 01:52, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Drmies, IMHO these edits are harmless. I'm more concerned that Alejxon doesn't seem to know how to communicate effectively. Unless he is able to do so, it's going to be a mess when when he crosses paths with the wrong person. Not sure what to do to avoid this potential disaster beyond what I & Schwede66 have done. -- llywrch (talk) 03:34, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- I don't like at all being threatened at my talk page just because some guy doesn't like their non-consensus edits being reverted. Impru20talk 05:37, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Two things. Firstly, Impru's contribution above had just been removed by Alejxon and that is not on. Secondly, in reply to Drmies, at WP:WPNZ we do use double-digits for results accuracy so Alejxon going through and adjusting those pages that show single-digit accuracy is most welcome. At the same time, Alejxon was putting percentage signs where our convention is not to use them. It would be good if one could communicate with Alejxon but that seems to be beyond reach. Schwede66 06:33, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Communication is definitely this editor's weak spot. -- llywrch (talk) 18:10, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Alexjon, are you reading along? So you need to talk, and give edit summaries. Impru20, apparently the user is not working against consensus? That should be relevant to you. Schwede and Llywrch, thank you so much. Drmies (talk) 21:54, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, Alexjon has been working against current consensus for Spanish general election articles, where double-digits are not used at infoboxes (they are used in the detailed tables instead). That this is done for New Zealand elections is a matter of WPNZ, but most countries do not actually use double digits in infoboxes.
- Further, I wouldn't consider persistent threatening, disruption and removal of others' comments as a mere "communication" issue. Impru20talk 22:06, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
