You can edit anything according to sources. You dont need to discuss in my talk page. Everytime you remove something in Princess Haya section, atleast another person has to restore those. I am surprised that administrators hasn't said anything to you for removing references. Although after your removed edits, I or others have reverted those, thats why you didn't go through further. For reminder, I dont want any discussion with you. I am not obliged to do something I dont want to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Woufeq (talkcontribs) 21:13, 13 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Woufeq I didn't mean to offended you. One reason I left that message on your talk page (which you deleted) was so that we can discuss in case you decide to revert again. You have reverted them. Let's discuss here then.
The sources do not support the claims theyre used to.
As an example, this article is used. But it is from before the case began, while the sentence it is placed at the end of is about findings after the case ended.
Can you show me which source I was mistaken in removing? FossilWave (talk) 02:31, 14 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
While the recent revert I made was large, the changes I was reverting to were this and the few edits after that. I made sure to include edit summaries, you can find my justifications in them. FossilWave (talk) 02:39, 14 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
I don't like to discuss anymore. Thanks Woufeq (talk) 19:20, 15 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Woufeq Hi, please don't blank sections from my talk page. FossilWave (talk) 04:42, 16 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Woufeq I did remove references, yes, but you choose to ignore why I did so. As I have multiple times mentioned now, I removed the references because they don't actually support the text they are placed after. I gave you an example in the reply above.
As the WP:BLP article says: "that is unsourced or poorly sourced ... removed immediately and without waiting for discussion." which I did, and you decided to insult me for it (and now erased it from your reply).
You are supposed to discuss so that we don't end up edit warring and can come to a consensus on what to do. FossilWave (talk) 17:29, 16 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Raltoid. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

@Raltoid These are the relevant parts of the two sources used:
1. "mainstream Christian religions, including Catholicism, have warned against the use of Oujia boards, claiming that they are a means of dabbling with Satanism" - which shows christian groups consider it a satanic practice
2. "and both are abhorred by some religious groups as gateways to demonic possession" - which does not claim christians think so, but only 'religious groups' more broadly
It could be that 'some religious groups' the second source refers to doesn't include christians. I think this very clearly justifies my edit and so I've restored it. FossilWave (talk) 18:47, 14 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi, the edits were intentional and I'd be happy to engage with more specific objections. I will be restoring my edits till then. Do look at the state of the article before my edits, it is a mess. FossilWave (talk) 17:10, 25 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
