History of chess

You will have to get consensus for your claim that chess originated in China on Talk:History of chess before you make your edits. Please be careful to not violate the Three Revert Rule. Quale (talk) 10:15, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're showing intellectual dishonesty in this argument. You have to attack the points and not provide fallacious arguments such as appealing to authority which is simply a form of ad hom and does not address the facts. Luan Hanratty (talk) 11:31, 30 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I really hate to get administrators involved in a content dispute, but if you continue to edit war you may be blocked pursuant to the WP:3RR. You should slow down and work through your concerns on the talk page. Quale (talk) 03:42, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably the administrators will look at this on the actual merits of the points in the edit, the references, the relevance and so on. They will probably not consider vague assertions, appeals to authority, appeals to fear etc. Luan Hanratty (talk) 09:50, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disruption on History of Chess again

I see you're back to disruption on history of chess again. Disappointing, but not surprising. Quale (talk) 03:08, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't make the rules. There's a lack of citations and there's original research. I'm just pointing that fact out. Every statement should be referenced:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research "Best practice is to research the most reliable sources on the topic and summarize what they say in your own words, with each statement in the article attributable to a source that makes that statement explicitly. Source material should be carefully summarized or rephrased without changing its meaning or implication."

No need to get upset. Luan Hanratty (talk) 05:08, 16 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
