User talk:LadyNyx666

Welcome!

Hello, LadyNyx666, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Witchcraft does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Questions page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

I do appreciate your edit, and I agree that that article probably needs to be corrected, but swinging the content from one polar side of the argument to the other doesn’t help. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Shadestar474 ^(talk) 20:29, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Where does it say that factually witches are evil? I’m a witch and I’m not evil. I come from a long line of Scottish Calliach Wise Woman. Not an evil one among us. LadyNyx666 (talk) 20:32, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I come from Scottish and Gaelic ancestry as well, and nowhere should anything say that witchcraft in inherently evil, but it shouldn’t say that it’s inherently always good, either. Please read WP:NPOV. Thank you. Shadestar474 ^(talk) 20:34, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

is, not in

The article is based on scholarly opinion in reliable sources. Please read through the talk page archives at Talk:Witchcraft where such issues have been discussed to death by experienced editors with knowledge of the field. Esowteric + Talk + Breadcrumbs 20:39, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Skewed

Stating that witches are evil and intend to harm people needs to be removed. LadyNyx666 (talk) 20:33, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Few interested editors will see this message on your own user talk page. It might be better placed on the article's talk page at Talk:Witchcraft. Esowteric + Talk + Breadcrumbs 20:37, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, @Esowteric. I’ll move it. Shadestar474 ^(talk) 20:37, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree wholeheartedly, @LadyNyx666. I practice some forms of witchcraft as well. But as I’ve been saying, it shouldn’t say that it’s always good. It shouldn’t say that it’s bad, either. It shouldn’t swing to either side of the argument. Shadestar474 ^(talk) 20:37, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I actually agree with you. LadyNyx666 (talk) 21:06, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
