Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

The Satanic Verses

WP:RS "Whether a specific news story is reliable for a fact or statement should be examined on a case-by-case basis." .. 49.36.183.242 (talk) 14:51, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted that source after I examined the website. Any news source that introduces itself as which pulls no punches when it comes to defending true Hinduism against the intellectual foolishness of the Khan Market Gang and the spineless IAS 'baboo'ns and fawning IFS buffoons who surround them. Our valued subscribers have no hesitation in NAMING and SHAMING the enemies of True Hinduism and ranking them in order of their un-Hinduness, cannot be considered as a reliable source. Plus, the source have no real information except for being sort of a news bulletin. Lastly, the format of the source was entirely wrong. ਪ੍ਰਿੰਸ ਆਫ਼ ਪੰਜਾਬ^{(PrinceofPunjab | ਗੱਲਬਾਤ)} 15:00, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That seems to be the personal opinion of a self declared Khalistani LGPBTQ+ activist. Before such rash actions you would have been well advised to obtain consensus before reverting. Since the news website and its publisher is very well known to WMF's Legal department eg. [1], so you should think 3 times before attacking the reputation of a private news website, read by many in India and outside, by falsely characterising it as unreliable -without any independent confirmation. NB: One ANI matter in Delhi High Court is more than enough for WMF to handle, considering that WMF narrowly escaped contempt by a whisker on 16.10.2024 due to its foolish Indian editors (who incorrectly think they are anonymous)..49.36.183.242 (talk) 15:10, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I will open a discussion regarding the use of this website, but I would like to remind you that name calling an another user is STRICTLY forbidden and can result in editing ban. So, you currently have a chance to retract those insults right now. ਪ੍ਰਿੰਸ ਆਫ਼ ਪੰਜਾਬ^{(PrinceofPunjab | ਗੱਲਬਾਤ)} 15:33, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was merely illustrating the dangers of forming opinions on the basis of an "About Us (me)" page. Pot calling the kettle black &c. If you remove the Anti-Indian tags from your user page, I will hasten to recall what you incorrectly perceive to be an insult. Till then it is self-declared fact, fair comment, and not opinion and so not in the least bit insulting. NB: I am choosing my words carefully so not to trigger WP:NLT. 49.36.183.242 (talk) 16:52, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You calling me a "Khalistani". That is a personal attack because you are associating me with a militant force without any proof. Where does in my user page, I am stating that I support the Khalistan movement? ਪ੍ਰਿੰਸ ਆਫ਼ ਪੰਜਾਬ^{(PrinceofPunjab | ਗੱਲਬਾਤ)} 16:56, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Khalistan is not exclusively about violence / militantcy. It is an ideology, and your user page tags show it. 49.36.183.242 (talk) 17:01, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am again asking you to please mention the specific part of my user page which even insinuate the fact that I support the Khalistani movement, otherwise you need to retract those baseless allegations. ਪ੍ਰਿੰਸ ਆਫ਼ ਪੰਜਾਬ^{(PrinceofPunjab | ਗੱਲਬਾਤ)} 17:04, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
