Keep Cool!

Hi! I just want to point out that you seem to have lost your cool in recent editing on Talk:Aleksandr_Dugin [[2]]. You forgot to sign several comments, were very negative about other editors, and seemed unable to read what other editors have written. Perhaps you need a break? Best wishes,♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ^{♥ Talk ♥} 00:09, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Destructive editing with false edit summary

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fascism&type=revision&diff=1106116140&oldid=1106115388 In this edit you reinstated text claiming that "sources are right there". There is no valid source for this text you reinstated -- According to Alexander J. Motyl, an American historian and political scientist, Russian fascism has the following characteristics:

• An undemocratic political system, different from both traditional authoritarianism and totalitarianism;
• Statism and hypernationalism;
• A hypermasculine cult of the supreme leader (emphasis on his courage, militancy and physical prowess);
• General popular support for the regime and its leader..

Please explain your actions.♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 07:58, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

References

Please refrain from calling other editors' good faithed edits "destructive". I added another source, which is accessible via the source already given. Volunteer Marek 08:02, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

You added annother source, but it didn't support the text you added. The source clearly says that Russia isn't fascist.♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ^{♥ Talk ♥} 11:39, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Fascism

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.. Slatersteven (talk) 09:22, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Slater, your "restore old version" edit mostly just removed source that was added to an unsourced text (which btw, is not a revert). Can you please be bothered to at least check what it is you're reverting? Volunteer Marek 12:18, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

I decided to not take sides in who was right. I left you a waring in the name,e of fairness, as there was a lot of reverting going on. So (again) I was trying to not take sides). Slatersteven (talk) 14:54, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Timeline of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, you may be blocked from editing. WikiHannibal (talk) 16:02, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Timeline of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. "lol" isn't an appropriate edit summary. Also the total amount of summaries you fill in is very low. Thank you.

@AdrianHObradors you’re welcoming this almost 20-year-old user to Wikipedia? Recommendation to practice at sand-box page? How can your notification be taken seriously? 🧐 - GizzyCatBella🍁 16:57, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

GizzyCatBella, you're right, edited. — AdrianHObradors (talk) 17:01, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

User:WikiHannibal, I didn't add any "unsourced or poorly sourced content" as your spurious templating suggests, not to mention that you're trying to intimidate someone over a possible content disagreement. Don't do it again. Thanks. Volunteer Marek 20:48, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Bare URLs

Hi Volunteer Marek, please try not to add references as WP:BAREURLS, as you did here, as it can lead to WP:LINKROT. Thanks — AdrianHObradors (talk) 22:22, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Why you doing this

Why you delete all information of Kherson oblest Russia? Anon-ymousTrecen (talk) 11:58, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Because it's all bullshit. No such "oblest" exists. Volunteer Marek 11:59, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

It is not "hoax" and there are sourced materials, it still makes no sense why you deleted it. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:02, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

There are no sourced materials and it's 100% a hoax. Show me these sources which say there is such an oblast. Volunteer Marek 13:04, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

It is a federal subject Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:10, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Or a de facto one Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:11, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

It is neither. Show me the sources which say that these oblasts exist. Volunteer Marek 13:13, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

It was all over the news 2 days ago, heres one [4], [5], [6], [7]. They were all annexed and Putin used the term region when he announced the annexation instead of oblast. Muhafiz-e-Pakistan (talk) 13:19, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Yes, Russia said it annexed these Ukrainian regions. We already have an article on that Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine. But there are no sources which say that such oblasts exist. In fact, your statement that "Putin used the term region (...) instead of oblast" proves the point. There are no oblasts. Maybe there will be in the future. But when this article was created and as of this writing there are no oblasts. Whole thing is fake info. Volunteer Marek 13:22, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

To be honest I am surprised there are not more western-created meme's similar to the Hitler/Downfall ones. Certainly there is plenty of stock footage to work from.

@Vanamonde93: the pageviews page is giving me some error message but afaict the article had more than sufficient number of views to add to the stats page? Volunteer Marek 01:04, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

It's 12,000+, as far as I can see, using the link in the template. So yes, it's eligible to be added to the stats page. Keeping that page updated isn't a mandated responsibility of anyone involved, though, so I suggest you do it yourself. Vanamonde (Talk) 01:50, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Aaron Maté) for a period of 1 week for edit warring by circumventing a community-imposed 1RR: last revert before being notified of 1RR; same addition, 27 hours later; same addition, 31 hours later. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.   -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 04:39, 6 November 2022 (UTC)
