September 2024

Hello, I'm 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:E0C1:A3E1:922:144. I noticed that you recently removed all content from a page. Please do not do this. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. As a rule, if you discover a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If a page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you wish to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:E0C1:A3E1:922:144 (talk) 17:24, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pincermitosis:Pincermitosis/sandbox2 moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Pincermitosis:Pincermitosis/sandbox2. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has too many problems of language or grammar and error. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. 🔥YesI'mOnFire🔥^{(ContainThisEmber?)} 14:28, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject

Hi, btw a WikiProject’s been created on oral tradition if you’re interested, it’s at WP:WikiProject Anthropology/Oral tradition taskforce Kowal2701 (talk) 18:20, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I'm now onboard! Pincermitosis (talk) 20:09, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Western canon

Just fyi, I reverted your edit to Western canon because the article is about the Canon. It doesn't need a long list of 17th and 18th century philosophers, it only needs a few to illustrate the point.

If it is of any consolation, you are far from unusual in making such good faith edits but the result is that articles get bloated to the point that they fail the tl;dr test. (If an article is tightly edited, crammed with essential information, but still too long, it can be WP:SPLIT. So one to note for [long-term] future reference.)

Okay I understand that, but wouldn't you agree that Giuseppe Mazzini (romaticism) and Marsilio Ficino (Neoplatonism) be considered as majour canon philosophers, influential enough to be mentioned? Giambattista Vico is considered by some as the father of Philosphy of History, would that not be related to the western canon? Pincermitosis (talk) 12:36, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes if you can find a citation that explicitly identifies them as "canonical" – per WP:NOR, you can't do so based on your own knowledge ore experience. (I'm not defending the current list as it is poorly cited too, so do please feel free to prune it.) --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:10, 24 October 2024 (UTC) amended 15:12, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @JMF hope all is well! I added the information back with references let me know what you think and what we should do about the rest of the un-referenced information

Pincermitosis (talk) 09:32, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent work, that is exactly how it should be (and should always have been) done.

As for the others, we can (a) boldy delete them (which is maybe too provocative) or (b) tag them with {{citation needed}}, leave it for a month for a response, and then delete them or (c) search for supporting citations, if you are willing. I advise option b for now in any case. If you are motivated, then obviously c but that is not an overnight task. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 09:57, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think I will try and focus on this page for a bit. Thank you for the advice and encouragement! I only stumbled on it trough the "suggested edits" function, but now looking at the article and the discussion (wow!) I see there's quite a lot of work needed to improve it.

AfC notification: Draft:Fulesta has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Fulesta. Thanks! Vanderwaalforces (talk) 14:23, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thabk you @Vanderwaalforces! I couldn't find anything specifically related to that date of the shows starting from 2008, I only translated it from the Italian article where this reference is also missing. I found a few websites mentioning this show happening throughout the years, all pointing to different dates. I picked the one that looks to be most reliable however that article is referring to the 2016 edition. Pincermitosis (talk) 16:17, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How about removing it entirely on the grounds that it is unverifiable? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:10, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well the 2008 edition is unverifiable, but the 2016 version is. Pincermitosis (talk) 10:01, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
