==Your draft article, [[Draft:María Teresa Mirabal]]==
[[File:Information icon4.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]

Hello, Sadads. It has been over six months since you last edited the [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]] submission or [[WP:Drafts|Draft]] page you started, "[[Draft:María Teresa Mirabal|María Teresa Mirabal]]". 

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia [[WP:mainspace|mainspace]], the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply {{edit|Draft:María Teresa Mirabal|edit the submission}} and remove the {{tlc|db-afc}}, {{tlc|db-draft}}, or {{tlc|db-g13}} code. 

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at [[WP:REFUND/G13|this link]]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! <!-- Template:Db-draft-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Veľketaka|Veľketaka]] ([[User talk:Veľketaka|talk]]) 05:15, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

Hey, perhaps you could point to the section of [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lists of works]] which recommends you use the {{tl|cite news}} template, complete with the bodged author field commented out and the completely inappropriate access date field, to generate a list of notable works for an author page. And when you can't, because it's not on that page, go and fix [[Michael Pollan]]. Thanks. [[User:Nick|Nick]] ([[User talk:Nick|talk]]) 22:25, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

== Questionnaire invitation (a new tool to be developed, to verify media data) ==

Hi there, I'm developing a tool to assist users in verifying (structured) data of media on commons.

To understand the community's needs, I would like to invite you to participate in this questionnaire: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScbNdJdQYN1yBvEeKne48eWDU6SBsdlUfNBAmZyvUEBkCR1Gg/viewform?usp=sf_link. It should take ~2 minutes.

Thanks a lot. :D

::{{ping|Wilhelm Zimmerling PAR}} The leaf is not the focus of the image, but the whole grown plant -- so if we are using something generic like leaf or branch, they should be qualifiers -- unfortunately we haven't quite figured out the right data modeling for this as a community -- so for right now, I am removing things that are not the focus of the image -- that particular one I probably should have done something like I did with this edit: [https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Ruhland,_Grenzstr.,_Wald_hinter_Hausnr._3,_Feldahorn,_Zweig_mit_Bl%C3%A4ttern,_Fr%C3%BChling,_01.jpg&diff=421438498&oldid=420974259&diffmode=source].

Dear Admin,

Thank you for having me. I am indeed happy to be here. I accept the cup of tea. I am yet to know how to do this Talk thing. I am sorry if I am violating. It's just that I needed to show my appreciation. I do not know where else to type or click. I am open to learning so please teach me. Please I do not know how to sign with the four tildes. I just copied and paste (the last one). 

Thank you all.

==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Category:Military units and formations of the United States Navy by war]]==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]

A tag has been placed on [[:Category:Military units and formations of the United States Navy by war]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#C1|section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a [[:Category:Disambiguation categories|disambiguation category]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia soft redirected categories|category redirect]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia featured topics categories|featured topics category]], under discussion at [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion|Categories for discussion]], or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Category:Military units and formations of the United States Navy by war|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. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. <!-- Template:Db-catempty-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:UnitedStatesian|UnitedStatesian]] ([[User talk:UnitedStatesian|talk]]) 05:35, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

== [[Peaceful transition of power]] ==

Hey, I get that you're trying to link people to the new article you created, but you need to actually review what you're linking with FindLink before adding the link. You've added it to a number of articles where it makes zero sense in context, such as [[Dali (goddess)]], where the phrase "peaceful transition" in context referred to the transition from one year to the next. I've reverted quite a few of these. Please take more care with automated editing tools in the future. &spades;[[User:Premeditated Chaos|PMC]]&spades; [[User_talk:Premeditated Chaos|(talk)]] 02:43, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

== Jessica Krug ==

Hi there. If you think the section about Jessica Krug puts unnecessary weight on one small scandal, mightn't we simply shorten the entry instead of deleting it entirely? The same with the Sokal affair. Being a scholarly gatekeeper is the core mission of a university press, so it's reasonable to mention notable failures. Happy to compromise with some brisker version if you thought my prose was too colorful. [[User:Nlfkng2eg|Nlfkng2eg]] ([[User talk:Nlfkng2eg|talk]]) 14:31, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
:Hi {{ping|User:Nlfkng2eg}} that is the kind of content that should be covered in her page, with like 1 sentence in the main article -- but that much coverage, is violating [[WP:BLP]]. Also, almost all those sources are scandal papers -- so I am not convinced that they are particularly reliable sources othrwise. As for the Sokal affair: that has nothing to do with the press, but rather was a problem in one journal -- academic publishing allows the peer review process to largely happen independent of the publisher... so I don't understand the connection you were drawing there (also again, these sources are not very reliable). The other two problems are more systematic in the way they were described, and are more connected with the Press itself. [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 18:22, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

:Hi {{ping|User:Sadads}}Thanks for your quick response. You don't say how the prose violates WP:BLP and it's not clear at a glance how, but I would gather that if the passage were framed around the press rather than the author, you'd withdraw your object. When you say "scandal papers," however, the citations were to 1) the NY Post, 2) Quillette, and 3) the monograph itself. I'll give you that the NYP is a tabloid, but there is a meaningful difference between a tabloid (which may be sensational but is still on a spectrum of reportage) and a scandal paper. Nevertheless, the NY Times wrote up the article as well and I'd by happy to cite them instead. Quillette can be provocative, but it doesn't fit anyone's definition of yellow journalism. I'll take away a suggestion to re-work this piece to center the press and citing the Times rather than the Post and to make it brisker in the spirit of not letting it expand to fill up an inappropriate space. . . . In the spirit of compromise, I'll forgo pressing for the Sokal affair, but academic publishing does *not* allow the peer review process to happen independent of the publisher. It is perhaps the scholar readers who comment on the content of a monograph, but the editors have considerable power in that they select the reader and the press assesses an author and project on numerous additional decision variables--the reputation and identity of the author being just two things.  [[User:Nlfkng2eg|Nlfkng2eg]] ([[User talk:Nlfkng2eg|talk]]) 18:52, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
::{{ping|Nlfkng2eg}} NYPost is generally unreliable for the Wikimedia community [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_312#RFC%3A_New_York_Post_%28nypost.com%29 in terms of coverage of political topics] and Quillette is treated as a [https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/quillette/ questionable source] and described as an [[Quillette|opinions paper for the most part]]. And you should never be citing a book itself. As for the broader question: yes please, make sure it focuses on public critic of the organization itself, not on you synthesizing various pieces of evidence to "prove" that the organization was responsible for some scandal -- these topics both feel like they should be treated on the specific organization or person pages, not on the press page, and certainly not for multiple paragraphs -- its undue weight.[[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 19:13, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

:Hi {{ping|User:Sadads}} You've made some insinuations or inferences about my intentions that I don't agree with, and I do not see how Quillette is more an opinion periodical than say, Jacobin or The Nation on the left or National Review or National Affairs on the right. But there's enough common ground here that I'll try this again. Thanks. [[User:Nlfkng2eg|Nlfkng2eg]] 

::Oh I am not arguing that those sources are more appropriate either: NYPost is actually much [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=0&target=http%3A%2F%2Fnypost.com more widely cited] than [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=0&target=https%3A%2F%2Fjacobinmag.com%2F Jacobin for example]. But Quillete in particular, has been [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LinkSearch&limit=500&offset=0&target=https%3A%2F%2Fquillette.com%2F removed way more often as evidenced by its use in talk pages rather than articles], than in actual content pages -- so its worth paying attention. Yeah please do try again! [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 19:50, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

:Hi {{ping|User:Sadads}} Thanks for your feedback. The [[Chronicle of Higher Ed]] ran a high-spirited article early last year  [https://www.chronicle.com/article/the-academys-new-favorite-hate-read/] titled "The Academy's Favorite Hate Read," and I have a hunch (typing to you from the campus of a large university) that it isn't so much that Quillette is all or more opinion, but that their opinions are deliberately and provocatively contrarian. In fact, sometimes what infuriates people is how bloody-mindedly literal or empirical they are. But it's reasonable to say that a reference in an article should persuade people and not turn them off, even if their revulsion is irrational. I'll need to set this aside for a while, but assuming you're watching the Duke press page, you'll see something fresh there in due course. Thanks again.[[User:Nlfkng2eg|Nlfkng2eg]] ([[User talk:Nlfkng2eg|talk]]) 22:05, 29 September 2020 (UTC)

== Excerpt insertion ==

Hello, there appears to be a problem with [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Subsidence&diff=989238122&oldid=978262165 this edit].

The insertion of text by the template {{tl|Excerpt|Sinking cities}} causes corruption of reference 14 (the first one it inserts). Looks like there is a problem with that template. [[User:Keith D|Keith D]] ([[User talk:Keith D|talk]]) 23:13, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

== New, simpler RfC to define trust levels for WikiLoop DoubleCheck ==

HI {{PAGENAME}}, <br/>
I'm writing to let you know we have simplified the [[m:WikiLoop/DoubleCheck/RfC:Levels for WikiLoop DoubleCheck Reviewers|RfC on trust levels for the tool WikiLoop DoubleCheck]]. Please join and share your thoughts about this feature! We made this change after hearing users' comments on the first RfC being too complicated.

== New page - Polymateria ==

Hi Sadads,

My name is Sophie and I am very new to being a Wikipedia user - editing and writing articles. I am contacting you because I saw that you had made changes to the plastic pollution Wikipedia page. I was hoping I could get your help to create a new page for the company I work for, we are developing technology for biodegradable plastic solutions (not oxo-degradation) to help combat plastic pollution and fugitive palstics. As I am currently working at Polymateria, I am unable to create the company Wikipedia page and was hoping you could help me.

If you are happy to help me I can send you the text that I would like to have on the page, external sources included.

Again, as said I am very new to this side of Wikipedia so please do let me know if there is another way I should be trying to make these changes.

Thank you and hope to speak soon,
Sophie

Hi again Sadads,
Thank you for your response! I have now added a request to my sandbox and also added it to my talk page. Any chance you have a moment to look at it, would love your feedback?

== Enhanced weathering ==

Hi, Sadads. Thank you to offer to collaborate on the improvement of the page [[Enhanced weathering]]. I am creating a new version of the page in [[User:Daniele Pugliesi/Enhanced weathering]]. I think at the moment the explanations are still confused, but I am trying to make it more clear, first of all distinguishing between chemical, mechanical and biological weathering of rocks. I think it is important for the reader to easily follow all the explanation step by step, so I am trying to make clearer the connection between natural chemical weathering, ocean acidification and enhanced weathering. Probably it could be worth to explain other related processes (natural or artificial) associated with natural and enhanced weathering, in order to have a wider perspective of this technology related to other natural and artificial processes occurring in the Earth.<br>
Please let me know in case you have some suggestion. I will send another messages from time to time to update you on my edits and doubts for this page. Speak you soon. --[[User:Daniele Pugliesi|Daniele Pugliesi]] ([[User talk:Daniele Pugliesi|talk]]) 12:40, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

== Recent edit reverted as "not helpful" ==

Hi Sadads,

Like yourself, my goal on Wikipedia is to make it a better place. I saw a sentence that was (rather jarringly) interrupted by a parenthetical statement that created odd phrasing, and I tidied it up. With all due respect and for my own edification, could you please take a second to explain how such an edit could be considered unhelpful? I could understand such a reversion if I had massively expanded the sentence – but I did not.

Thank you for your time, and have a great day.

Sincerely,
[[User:1980fast|1980fast]] ([[User talk:1980fast|talk]]) 22:52, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
:{{ping|1980fast}} -- um, I reverted the addition because I misinterpreted your the diff -- sorry about that -- but at the same time, the new phrasing was still not clear. I just tweaked: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Plastic&diff=995319943&oldid=995162339&diffmode=visual check out the diff], [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 11:53, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

== Cite Unseen update ==

Hello! Thank you for using [[User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen|Cite Unseen]]. The script recently received a significant update, detailed below.
* You can now toggle which icons you do or don't want to see. See [[User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen#Configuration|the configuration section]] for details. All icons are enabled by default except for the new [[File:Yes Check Circle.svg|18px|Green checkmark]] generally reliable icon (described below).
* New categorizations/icons:
** [[File:Font Awesome 5 solid bullhorn.svg|18px|Megaphone]] '''Advocacy''': Organizations that are engaged in advocacy (anything from political to civil rights to lobbying). Note that an advocacy group can be reliable; this indicator simply serves to note when a source's primary purpose is to advocate for certain positions or policies, which is important to keep in mind when consuming a source.
** [[File:Hand-33988.svg|18px|Hand writing]] '''Editable''': Sites that are editable by the public, such as wikis (Wikipedia, [[Fandom (website)|Fandom]]) or some databases ([[IMDb|IMDb]], [[Discogs|Discogs]]).
** [[File:Book X red.svg|18px|Red journal with an X]] '''Predatory journals''': These sites charge publication fees to authors without checking articles for quality and legitimacy.
** '''Perennial source categories''': Cite Unseen will mark sources as [[File:Yes Check Circle.svg|18px|Green checkmark]] generally reliable, [[File:Achtung-orange.svg|18px|Exlamation mark in orange triangle]] marginally reliable, [[File:Argentina - NO symbol.svg|18px|No symbol]] generally unreliable, [[File:Stop hand.svg|18px|Stop hand]] deprecated, and [[File:X-circle.svg|18px|Black X]] blacklisted. This is based on [[WP:RSPSRC|Wikipedia's perennial sources list]], which reflects community consensus on frequently discussed sources. Sources that have multiple categorizations are marked as [[File:Question Circle.svg|18px|Blue question mark]] varied reliability. Note that [[File:Yes Check Circle.svg|18px|Green checkmark]] generally reliable icons are '''disabled''' by default to reduce clutter, but you can enable them [[User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen#Configuration|through your custom config]]. A special thanks to {{no ping|Newslinger}}, whose [https://sourceror.org/ new Sourceror API] provides the perennial sources list in a clean, structured format.
* With the addition of the new categorizations, the [[File:Scale icon unbalanced.svg|18px]] biased source icon has been removed. This category was very broad, and repetitive to the new advocacy and perennial sources categorizations that are more informative.
If you have any feedback, requested features, or domains to add/remove, don't hesitate to bring it up [[User talk:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen|on the script's talk page]]. Thank you!

If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]].  In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. 

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''&mdash;especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|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&mdash;'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.{{Break}}''Make your case on the talk page and get [[WP:CON]].

== Thank you for your message! ==

Hi! I saw your message regarding the upcoming work on Climate and Human Rights and I am very interested in this topic and how we can spread information about it.

==Thoughts on [[WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE]]==
Hi, I'm moving here to follow up on the brief exchange that we had at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mary Annaïse Heglar]], in the interest of not clogging up the AfD. I think your suggestion makes a lot of sense. Varying interpretations of this policy seem, to me, to be causing weekly (if not almost daily) problems in AfD discussions — I just saw it come up ''again'' at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bruce Lerman]]. And as you noted it's not just esoteric stuff, but will probably come up more and more often, and is causing severe arguments not just on Wikipedia but also on social media, with lots of nasty implications for peoples' well-being and Wikipedia's reputation. So I think an RfC or a Village Pump thread is a sensible next step. The problem is that I don't want to poison the well by proposing a clumsy change that has no hope of making anything better, and I'm honestly not totally sure what I think it should be changed to. Do you have any thoughts about what a good way to proceed would be? No worries if not, I just thought that your suggestion of trying to make sure that the policy is aligned with consensus was a good one, and I want to be sensible about the next step. - [[User:Astrophobe|<span style="color:#ff69b4">'''Astrophobe'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Astrophobe|''talk'']]) 19:21, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
::{{ping|Astrophobe}} I agree with you on doing an RFP post deletion discussion -- its always delicate on these things, because sometimes attention has the opposite effect of those starting the conversation. I actually have a hard time imagining, her AFD for example, not concluding that she is a public person -- she is all over the U.S. environmental movement, and is actively promoting storytelling about environmental justice... the whole goal of the book [[All We Can Save]] is to promote women leaders in the space... they were included in the book because the editors thought they were notable. 
::But I could see a version of the policy that says something like "living persons not newsworthy or of regular public comment yet documented because of their livelihood that request removal", but the problem is that for every exception we make through these requests, the closer we get down the slippery slope of [[Right to be forgotten]]. I empathize with the reaction she has on Twitter, but have a hard time imagining a version of these rules that is appropriate for effective (yet inclusive) encyclopedic coverage... But then again, its been a long time since I have spent time in the trenches of AFDs on BLPs. [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 21:43, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi! I notice that many or even most of the articles where you add excerpts are related to environmental issues.

== Agricultural Productivity ==

What's up? [[Special:Contributions/86.83.56.115|86.83.56.115]] ([[User talk:86.83.56.115|talk]]) 13:48, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

:Ok, I want to leave, there's a storm coming and I must secure stuff, but here's a try guessing what your problem is with my edits. I'm guessing from your edit history that you are primarily concerned with climate change, and you specifically didn't like the one edit where I deleted your contribution to the article regarding that subject. Annoying, you could of just re-added that part with an edit summary explaining why you think it's necessary to have it in there, instead of reverting all the improvements I made to grammar. My motivation is thus: the article in question is a simple economical concept. I generally edit agriculture articles. There are very many editors who want to promote climate change stuff, and very few interested in agribusiness -this is true throughout the western world, where almost no one is employed in farming, but everyone has an opinion about it. Whilst there is nothing wrong with that, agricultural articles often get crammed full of this topic. I fail to see how that sentence I removed helps a reader who wants to understand, or read about, agricultural productivity. I mentioned it comes across as propaganda. Inherent bias is another term. Imagine how some farming student looking this term would sigh ... blablabla climate change again. Too much promotionalism can harm what you are trying to achieve - informing people about climate change. Can you feel me? [[Special:Contributions/86.83.56.115|86.83.56.115]] ([[User talk:86.83.56.115|talk]]) 14:59, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
::What you are saying makes no sense -- we don't write content for how people feel....land use, and how its connected to climate change is absolutely central topic. Any economic concept is connected to the environmental and social systems that it influences -- by your same logic we should say nothing about [[food security]] in the article. You are removing an appropriately weighted concept again and again, [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 05:18, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
:::"Can you feel me" is a colloquialism from hip-hop music, it means ''do you understand what I'm trying to say?'' -perhaps you are unfamiliar with the term. Please, I removed your text, then re-added it as a compromise to you, then edited it to fit the subject matter better -I did not remove stuff again and again. Try and be a bit more collaborative. You've been around for a long time I see: you know how things work around here. I personally think food security is important and didn't touch that part, the third editor to join the fray must have. I agree that any economic concept has environmental and social implications, but I disagree that it is a central topic, and that's actually the reason I think it's superfluous and repetitive: a reader simply looking for info on the subject of economy or agriculture will not require this info. People have different viewpoints, this you must accept (as I must). Either way, I do believe the article is improving with the three of us fighting about it.  [[Special:Contributions/86.83.56.115|86.83.56.115]] ([[User talk:86.83.56.115|talk]]) 14:56, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
::::I understand the expression -- your example of the ideal reader for the page appears to be quite radical than mine. I am imagining the average reader to be a random person or government administrator who sees a term "agricultural productivity" and needs to understand how that effects society and make a decision about how they respond to the topic -- anything economic has a human behavior and related impacts on society and the environment (thinking a bit like groups like [[Freakonomics]] would). Also, the climate adaptation literature spends a huge amount of energy and time on productivity v land degradation and climate change weather changes, etc, so we need to expand that coverage quite significantly in the article.  As for the  other editor -- they are prone to fringe theories about [[human overpopulation]] -- so I would be very skeptical of anything they are adding -- you and I have already had to correct several rather blatant moments of bias/racism. If you are interested I could really use some more eyes on [[human overpopulation]]  -- that article is a trainwreck, [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 18:37, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
:::::Fair enough, the reader I was thinking of was myself as a student of agronomy a few decades ago... I'd sort of hope a "government administrator" has better sources than Wikipedia, hahaha! Regarding "human overpopulation", this concept actually really disturbs me -I consider it a fascist fringe theory unsupported by science, and I have deleted much promotion of it on unrelated pages over the years. If we say there is '''over'''population, this implies there is a percentage of the population which must be culled. I always wonder who has to die according to these people. Blacks? Republicans? Indians? Jews? It is evil nihilism and crying about spilled milk -we have the world population we have: we must deal it, not complain that it would be better if all these people didn't exist. The moral thing to do is to address the problems of the world by helping people, not whining that they should be killed like Hitler's theories of ''Lebensraum''. It's unfortunate, I'm familiar with the works of David Pimentel, he also wrote much else about agroecology and agroforestry, but on Wikipedia it is that one stupid essay that keeps on being quoted. I wrote most of the articles on normal [[overpopulation]], [[carrying capacity]] and other ecological concepts being abused by that article, and had to constantly fight with a guy, didn't want to touch the human overpopulation one with a 5-ft pole at the time ... I'm so against the idea it will be hard for me to stay neutral. You are right, it is absolutely terrible - too long and too much OR. If it were up to me I'd delete huge parts. Ah, I see you've argued with the editor in question on the talk page of that article... unconstructive... sigh!
:::::Regarding your suggestion about expanding the article, I added an online [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Agricultural_productivity&diff=prev&oldid=1011577197 source] with this edit that touches on all the subjects you mention from a more economic perspective. Perhaps you will find something useful there? Perhaps we should add something more about the importance of women regarding agricultural productivity. My interests are agriculture, ecology and botany -not so much environmentalism. However, real life calls -the storm is over and the damage has been extensive, I've never had this many glass panes smashed before, and 'tis the season for getting some growing done! I'm raring to go now this horrible corona is nearing some sort of resolution- so I will unfortunately be less available in the coming time. I'm actually taking a break from taking a break from Wikipedia. Regards, Leo [[Special:Contributions/86.83.56.115|86.83.56.115]] ([[User talk:86.83.56.115|talk]]) 21:00, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
::::Thanks for the input -- yeah I am getting up the willpower to start a conversation on the Fringe Theory Noticeboard about the article -- its a mess, and that editor consistently re-adds content that is fringe at best, and malicious in a lot of situations. I hope that as you come back we can continue to collaborate -- I think there is room for both of our approaches to the topic -- and other agricultural topics -- so I hope we get a chance to work on it, [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 22:16, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

==BR-319==
Do not do experiments, as you did in the article [[BR-319]]. The article is a translation of the Portuguese version (native language of the object in question).

The link to the [[Global Footprint Network]] is directly relevant to human overpopulation, so please explain why you deleted the link.

:@[[User:Fabrickator|Fabrickator]] Only two of the four were inappropriate among the ones you point at, and the error rate among others is quite low, I usually don't have that high of an error rate -- so not sure what you are talking about, [[User:Sadads|Sadads]] ([[User talk:Sadads#top|talk]]) 11:48, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

:: Guess I'm a little more particular. For instance, this seems confusing:
::: n [[carbon sequestration]]
:: which probably should have been (ignoring wikilinking)
::: n-carbon sequestration
:: to begin with.

FWIW, I have seen other cases where only the word "sequester" or "sequestration" (adjacent to "carbon") was hyperlinked to "carbon sequestration".  That makes good sense to me, e.g.
::: the advantages of carbon [[Carbon sequestration|sequestration]] include...

But that still  leaves open the issue: when nothing is wrong to start with, what is the number of errors that it's okay to introduce? [[User:Fabrickator|Fabrickator]] ([[User talk:Fabrickator|talk]]) 15:29, 20 April 2021 (UTC) (revised comment)
