  Hello, I'm Dharmalion76. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Dharmalion76 the article (which seemed to be under your supervision) was not neutral. Now its better and I have simply added sources which had been selectively omitted from the original version on :es. I have also removed some rather libelous weasel terms (claims to have taught in Harvard). You certainly seem to have been trying hard to avoid neutral point of view. Regardless, it looks fine now. At least less outrageous. In the future please avoid owning articles with little exposure turning them into character assassinations. As you know, your old version would not last 35 second on :es.

It isn't under my supervision. I don't own the article and more importantly neither do you. I was enforcing WP:NPOV not avoiding it. As I explained in our conversation you used terms that were not in the sources and pushing your own POV about the critics of this author. Please cease with the personal attacks and try to assume good faith. You have already made numerous wrong assumptions about me and my motivations.

Dharmalion76 Which terms did I use which were not in the source? As far as I can see that was a false accusation. Assuming good faith, I imagine it is because you do not speak Spanish. The terms I used were taken from google translate of the sourced article.Harlyn35 (talk) 20:51, 21 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
I already explained to you that you used terms not in the source such as "far left" or "misogyny". It also makes no claims that José Luis Villacañas is "a supporter of the far-left Podemos" but instead states that Villacañas is " source of inspiration of some of the leaders of Podemos." Here is the google translate of the article. Dharmalion76 (talk) 14:05, 22 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
Ok but the author clearly accuses Villacanas of misogyny in his criticism of RCB.Harlyn35 (talk) 12:57, 23 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

When you do an edit

edit

such as you did at Strange Fruit it is considered proper to include a reference. Otherwise someone might remove it. Also, if you put something, anything, on your user page then your user name will change into a blue link rather than being the red one that it is now. The blue link, as opposed to the red link, suggests to others, or at least to me, that you are not the dead end that red links on wikipedia indicates and that perhaps you are even a serious editor who intends to stay around.

Carptrash I think you have mistaken me for another Wikipedian.Harlyn35 (talk) 13:06, 3 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Right you are. Sorry about that. Carptrash (talk) 16:03, 4 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Nblund It has been reverted in whole. Please be more selective in reverting other people's edits and threats are not warranted, particularly since my edits quoted the source. Thank you. Harlyn35 (talk) 20:48, 16 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

A warning is warranted when someone copy-pastes an entire article on to Wikipedia. You didn't quote a source, and even if you did, it would still be a copyright violation to include most of someone else's article here. I also notice that you've been copying extensively from within Wikipedia. For instance, in this edit you copied text from History_of_slavery_in_Florida#Spanish_Florida. When you do this you should follow Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia and provide attribution within your edit summary. In many cases, it may be better to simply include a link to the relevant material, rather than duplicating content from elsewhere. Nblund talk 22:07, 16 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

So I did Nblund. A friendly reminder/explanation is enough. No need to copy paste a threat template. Those are for people who insist on violating Wikipedia rules not for editors who make a good faith mistake. This behavior is what is killing Wikipedia.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Genocide of indigenous peoples, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Elliot (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
