Hau journal

Hi Lithuanian crusades man

You seem to have restored a publication all of whose allegations have been thoroughly disproves by subsequent more Authoritative sources and publications such as Chronicle of Higher Education. Are you of the opinion that every rumour circulated on social media that is reprinted in a magazine should be on Wikipedia even after it is disproves by professional and independent journalists? Let me know. Otherwise I will be justifies in reversing your edit. Please edit it yourself in accordance with Wikipedia rules. We all abide by the same ones. Thestudentspirit (talk)thestudentspirit

@Thestudentspirit: I will be responding on the article talk page so more editors can contribute. I encourage you not to speculate about other editors' motivations or beliefs, and you should probably read WP:Edit warring—your repeated, undiscussed reversions to remove this information are not constructive. —Wingedserif (talk) 20:00, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

At most the HAU article can include the discussion between Chronicle of Higher Education and Quillette. The Graeber apology is self-published source. In contrast one can cite original emails as reliable source and I could link you to a memorandum if you are interested in knowing what happened.

"The reporting of rumors has a limited encyclopedic value, although in some instances verifiable information about rumors may be appropriate (i.e. if the rumors themselves are noteworthy, regardless of whether or not they are true). Wikipedia is not the place for passing along gossip and rumors."

"Questionable sources Shortcuts WP:QUESTIONABLE WP:QUESTIONED Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions.[9] Questionable sources are generally unsuitable for citing contentious claims about third parties, which includes claims against institutions, persons living or dead, as well as more ill-defined entities. The proper uses of a questionable source are very limited." From wiki sources page, Thestudentspirit (talk) 08:43, 22 June 2021 (UTC)Thestudentspirit

Write this on the article talk page so other editors can respond there. —Wingedserif (talk) 13:56, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

Ok. wrote it at talk page. Follow the guideline: ""Take special care with contentious material about living and recently deceased people. Unsourced or poorly sourced material that is contentious, especially text that is negative, derogatory, or potentially damaging, should be removed immediately rather than tagged or moved to the talk page." If you want to source factual data, feel free to data in the memo: https://medium.com/@enrique.martino/david-graeber-and-the-hau-coup-b368f8f20f39 that doesnt go against wikipedia guidelines not being able to use 1) anonymous sources; 2) twitter sources, cited as evidence; 3) self-publication of allegations (Graeber's apology).

Template:Italian resistance movement

Noticed your interest in the Italian antifascism template, you might be interested in the above template I created, feel free to add, comment, revise. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 09:19, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for creating that template; I'll take a look! I had translated the Italian antifascism template because I was surprised to see that en-wiki didn't have much in the way of organizing info about the Italian partisans. —Wingedserif (talk) 13:31, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Napoleonic looting of art

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Napoleonic looting of art you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of FredModulars -- FredModulars (talk) 03:21, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi FredModulars, thanks for taking an interest in this article. I saw your edit summary on the GAN page and I want to confirm that I am still logging in and able to try to address any comments. I've just been swept up by the school year, so my WP time has declined. —Wingedserif (talk) 03:58, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

No problem. I'll proceed with the review later today and probably stop somewhere for you to address comments. Thanks for informing me. FredModulars (talk) 11:00, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Edward Mitchell Bannister

Hey! I don't... think we've met, but I've been here 15 years, so...

Anyway! I've swapped out the image in Edward Mitchell Bannister for an improved scan which I spent a couple days restoring. Hope it's helpful! We could probably use a cropped version, but I think with cabinet cards - the National Portrait Gallery gives the dimensions, and while they're still called cartes-de-visites in common use (think that's the right plural), we have a whole article on cabinet cards, and a section of the carte-de-visite explaining the difference, so... better to use the more accurate term.

Going to throw it up onto WP:FPC once it's had a little time to settle in. By the way, I'm always happy to help with images, at least, insofar as I can. Just ask! Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.6% of all FPs} 04:49, 14 February 2022 (UTC) Oh, fun fact about the photographer: His will makes part of the caselaw of Rhode Island. [1] Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.6% of all FPs} 10:04, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

Anyway, looks like it'll be a featured picture come Saturday. Forgive my meddling! Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 7.6% of all FPs} 09:51, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! It's nice to see the article with the historically appropriate picture (and description, oops!). —Wingedserif (talk) 22:49, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Glad to help! If you ever need help finding or improving images - at least from before the 50s or so , I'd be happy to give a search. I know my image archives, or at least enough of them to have a decent chance for America and Europe. I struggle a lot more once we leave the Latin script.

Thank you today for the article, "about Edward Mitchell Bannister, an African-American abolitionist and painter. He first received national recognition for his art in 1876 at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, and he was a founder member of the Rhode Island School of Design and Providence Art Club. I have particularly attempted to expand our coverage of Bannister's earlier abolitionist years in Boston and the specifics of his artistic style and subjects."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:43, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Persephone Books books

A tag has been placed on Category:Persephone Books books indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:21, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

Liz, as I can no longer see the Talk page for the Category because you deleted it—what was your reasoning for speedy deletion, given I had started a discussion on the Talk page to contest the mass-removal of that Category from every title it was applied to? —Wingedserif (talk) 17:07, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi -- I'm seeking peer review for the page Welfare Colonialism and based on your interest in anthropology and the peer review instructions so am reaching out to see if you'd be able to take a look and share your thoughts. My notes on the review page are: "Hello, I am requesting peer review of this page. I am somewhat new to the peer review process; my aim is simply to further develop this page.

Kamal Al-Mansour moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Kamal Al-Mansour, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:12, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
