Welcome!
Hi StopSayingMyth! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.
As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful:
Alternatively, the contributing to Wikipedia page covers the same topics.
If you have any questions, we have a friendly space where experienced editors can help you here:
If you are not sure where to help out, you can find a task here:
Happy editing! Justiyaya 18:39, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Not sure if this is an automated message or actually hand written but either way thank you for this. These links will prove helpful I am sure. Thanks again StopSayingMyth (talk) 18:41, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Welcome messages are done by template, we don't really handtype them for every account, but mostly only real users (not bots) put welcome templates on user talk pages, so I am a real human :D noticed the teahouse thread and decided to leave a message, good luck here and yeah the links helped a lot when I was starting editing Justiyaya 18:45, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Glad to know there are some kind people on this site. Thanks for taking the time to welcome me.
- I am sadly experiencing a lot of discrimination and bias right now on the Hindu mythology page and debating whether I want to continue with this community....Is there anyone who can be contacted about this? StopSayingMyth (talk) 18:52, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- No, it is not discrimination nor bias, as established at the bottom of the page, we do the same for other religions too. The relevant policy is WP:COMMONNAME which establishes that the most commonly used name for a subject should be the article title, which is the case in this situation. I do not believe there is any issue in relation with the article title. Any resolution concurring with your argument is highly unlikely. I suggest that you drop the issue and work on other aspects of the encyclopedia (see WP:Task). Justiyaya 19:11, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Well systemic discrimination is worse. I hope all people can stop being demeaned at some point but for now all I can do is try to cause change on the pages that are important to me. Hopefully more of us will stop being initimidated by the cleanliness of this site and it can be more like a community and less of people in higher places enforcing discrimination "equally". StopSayingMyth (talk) 19:20, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is a community. That's why things are decided via consensus. You're welcome to try and establish consensus to change the names of all those pages from "mythology" to "stories". But your solitary opinion that it should be changed, regardless of whatever reason you believe it should, is not going to be enough. WPscatter t/c 19:38, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hey a reasonable response wow. Glad to see this. Thank you for your understanding. I suppose then this is a very good goal you have described, to try to establish consensus among the people on this site and get the word changed. I have been calm, civil, and looking for unity since I arrived and I will continue to pursue this goal in the same manner. I think no one should be discriminated against, even those we don't like.
