is there any reason why you're peppering all of your talk page replies with trademark symbols? ViperSnake151  Talk  17:26, 18 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Of course, there is! Just like there must be a reason why you took interest SPECIFICALLY in that. So before I can formulate my to-the-point answer: Pray tell, may you kindly specify at first? –Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 03:47, 19 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
Noting that your reply fails to assume good faith. Doug Weller talk 10:16, 16 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
What's that? A prejudicial assumption, or are you psychoanalysing me, from a single reply? The said 'Wikipedian'( "@ViperSnake151") with resembling-hierarchy( WP:UAL) from Your Highness is clearly a WP:JAGUAR, and so am I. So.. We do have a history. Is it owing to Credential Inflation that you had no choice but to take this “note”? What's the purpose of your “note”, exactly? Particularly when your independent interpretation of WP:GF applies explicitly to the talk-pages as well, whereas the actual text doesn't. May you bother to specify the same exhaustively? —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 11:33, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Edit Note: Fixed the "mentioning" template, line-placement of my reply and the typo on titling Wikipedia®'s of relevant coverage on a pertinent sociological topic. —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 12:03, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Important Notice edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Ditto, as earlier! And I dunno whether you would bother to pay attention or think it through, whilst I would love to vehemently oppose the policy of "Discretionary" Sanctions given it goes straight to the many offline-universe Philosophical principles such as Free Will, Equity by Merit or Free Thinking, what-have-you and so on — as propagated to most of the Civilised Humans through the Occidental[ly-inspired] education-systems. But Thanks to the informed personal philosophies of my own, I do understand fully well that no lingual version of Wikipedia® is supposed to be neutral in tone( neutrality doesn't exist!), unbiased in its treatment of subjects( interchangeable-word/synonym to the preceding), with utmost reliance on what socially-"reliable" sources are telling and establishing some semblance of balance thereon. Masses are dumbfucks, and hence as much as I would ideally love to hate such policies to bits — I couldn't agree more.( Contingent on: 'Wikipedians' with greater WP:UAL not having confidence of a bureaucrat/politician pushing papers( "approving license applications") and judging every single case independently of the other, even if it appears eerily-similar to a previous one and above all, taking the initiative of discharging their duties ONLY AND ONLY when in an ideal frame-of-mind to perform such tasks — rest of the time better be spent in WP:HOLIDAY than the short-lived kicks of exerting power( propelled by ids found in each one of us) over the "subordinates". After all, “discretion” can only be exercised Best when the jury-less judge is at their best intellectual-capabilities.) —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 12:55, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Edit Note: Fixed the "auto-incorrect" typo and the missed punctuation at the end( specifically: closing-parenthesis). —Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 13:03, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Edit-warring on Media Research Center edit

 

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

"Favoring the science of climate change" doesn't seem to make sense... science facts can be reviewed and assessed and sometimes rejected, but favoritism? As CBC's Fifth Estate called it, MRC is "spreading the gospel of liberal bias" (that is similar to a conspiracy theory: understanding that climate change happens and why, doesn't mean you must be a liberal, except if all non-denialists effectively were and that for some reason not rejecting fair consensus would be a "mainstream media bias problem")... —PaleoNeonate – 15:35, 8 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
May I please urge you to post that there, instead?( Assuming you're willing to engage me in this dialogue, at first place.) 'Case, you wonder: "Why" has already been answered in the introductory-message over there*, other than the very basic premise of this conversation having to do with that article only, prima-facie.
H/T: If by any chance, you haven't read my 'edit-descripts' very, very, very carefully to process sufficiently, I urge you to process them and hopefully, revise your input accordingly than simply copy-pasting the text of this reply.( Not insinuating that there would be something "undesirable" in that. After all, it's myself who's asking you to do that.)

Hi edit

Hi there. I can tell you're doing your best to contribute and that you're pretty frustrated by the way things work here. I want to help you succeed here, so I have a few pointers:

  • State your position and then your reasoning. Posts like yours at Talk:Al_Jazeera could be much more effective if you started with something like "The sentence An example sentence here should be removed because the source that supports it is not reliable in this context and because it does not present a neutral point of view." and then gave your reasoning afterwards.
    • Similarly, posts like Just a reminder-'buzz' — presuming you're not receiving timely notices( read notifications).( Totally try to ignore this: Guess I've to extend my wait for a week further.. Ahh! Damn superstition!)[1] are almost impossible to parse.
  • Avoid the use of trademark symbols in prose; see Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Trademarks#General_rules (Do not use the ™ and ® symbols, or similar, in either article text or citations, unless unavoidably necessary for context.). It can get really annoying in talk page posts; they aren't legally required and they look like marketing, which can be very irritating for Wikipedians.
  • If you find yourself becoming frustrated, disengage. If you let yourself get visibly frustrated, you lose credibility.
  • After posting on a talk page, if you find yourself in a dispute with other editors that you would like to resolve, see Wikipedia:Dispute resolution for further steps.
  • Many editors get annoyed with "drive-by tagging". It is often best to fix the problem if you can, and explain your position on the talk page if necessary.
  • Try not to use as much bold, especially in large blocks. It puts people off and doesn't help you make your point better. Instead, make every sentence clear and keep things short if possible.
  • Please try not to overlink policies and Wikipedia-space pages.
  • Edit summaries like Fffuuuuuucccck! Editing from flashy, bare-bones "Wikipedia Lite" interface is so tedious. For anybody concerned, please ref to the Edit Note.[2] can reduce your credibility greatly.
  • You use a lot of brackets in your talk page messages. I don't understand any of them, and it reduces comprehension.
  • Administrators are not "higher" users than others, and it's almost insulting if you intentionally make remarks referring to them as e.g. Your Highness. That said, experienced users (including administrators) often provide very good advice, especially about the things that aren't explicitly covered in policy.
  • I've included more links to available information at the top of the page in the "welcome" section. I suggest looking through that, which may be helpful.

Best, Kevin (aka L235 · t · c) 17:46, 22 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Noted! I seem to already know quite a few of them. But Thanks for your niceties, anyways. No, genuinely so. Will seek further-clarification later on, at a sufficient time-allowance. Meanwhile.. Since you sound to be somewhat aware of the editing-activity going over there already, I've replied to your message. –Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 06:44, 23 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

HBO Max edit

About your last edit, i'm sorry for reverting that. I thought it was unconstructive, but it's not. It was an accident. I din't had time to review your edit because i was busy. Thanks for asking. PedroLucasDBr (talk) 20:29, 31 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

No worries, "dear". I'm pleasantly surprised that you didn't engage in edit-war nor take offense at my inspired, frank-but-civil wording[ in the limited-space of] edit-summaries. In fact, edit count wise — you must be one of the rarest of the rare senior editor who either hasn't made snap-judgements about my conduct, or worse — found countering their aggression worst and have responded with even more aggression, without a shred of apparent regret. I dunno if you are even spiritual or not, let alone a man of faith but I humbly wish all of the deserving happiness in your life. Āmēn, Mohd.maaz864 (talk) 15:50, 1 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
