Informal GA Review
Hi there. I saw you nominated Alan Dershowitz for GA. I don't have the time at the moment to do a full review but I have major concerns over how the article currently handles GA criteria 3 and 4 (and to a lesser extent 6 - just surprised at how few pictures illustrate the article). Specifically, the article seems to be heavily weighted towards events that have occurred during Wikipedia's lifetime rather than truly giving WP:DUE weight to his career. For instance there is roughly the same word count given to Claus von Bülow and Virginia Roberts. That seems absurdly weighted towards the latter controversy. This is unsurprising because so many of the sources are current news stories rather than biographical articles/books/etc about Dershowitz. I considered quick failing the review on these grounds but decided that wasn't quite fair to you, however, I do hope you consider this concern about the article. Best wishes, Barkeep49 (talk) 23:37, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up. I'll get to work on that. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 23:37, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
- Barkeep49 How do you feel about using his books as WP:PRIMARY sources for some of his cases, or at least his account of his involvement? Wikieditor19920 (talk) 00:06, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- Wikieditor19920 It seems appropriate to some extent, but probably more useful for "color" e.g. a memorable quote, than for basic facts. I spent about 10 minutes looking into sourcing and there is definitely academic writing about Derschowitz as a lawyer which seems great. However, I think the key here is to find good 20,000 foot views of him from RS secondary sources and see how they give weight to various aspects of his life. An imperfect version of this that I am familiar with is this article which has a modern focus but takes pains to present not just the present but also the past. For someone who has been notable as long as him there must be other such longform profiles or even books to draw on for sourcing and for perspective. Best wishes, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:15, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- In dong a search of EBSCO (thanks to the WikiLibrary) for articles about him before 2003 I find several such articles which use a current news hook (e.g. Helmsly or Simpson) to profile him. These seem helpful and there must be other such articles written during Wikipedia's lifespan, rather than just on the controversy of the day, like Politico article above. My previous search of JSTOR also show more formal academic writings about him. Best wishes, Barkeep49 (talk) 00:25, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, that's very helpful. I'm going to start cleaning up some of the writing a bit further and will begin incorporating these sources. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 00:34, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

[1] might be the sort of stuff that intrigues you, but, as I'm sure you also know, it has nothing to do with improving any article and is disruptive.

Discretionary sanctions at Sarah Jeong
You are welcome to ask for the discretionary sanctions applied to the article to be lifted but you cannot just ignore them, as you did in these two edits. Do not do so again. Abecedare (talk) 02:16, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Abecedare: I have no intention of ignoring the discretionary sanctions, but you should know that both of those changes were reverts to changes that another editor had implemented without consensus—I restored the version of the article as it existed before those changes took place.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sarah_Jeong#Proposal:_remove_paraphrased_NYT_statement
- Here, an editor suggested a change. It was objected to by two editors. The editor waited two weeks and implemented it anyway. My first edit was to revert that change.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sarah_Jeong#The_Verge_editors'_statement
- The same editor made a suggestion, which was also met with opposition. The editor waited several weeks and proceeded with the changes. The second of my edits was another revert to restore the original status of the article, something which I also addressed on the talk page. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 02:36, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- You would be right were it not for these two messages Sangdeboeuf posted on the article talkpage on Feb 1st, after which they waited 50+ days for someone to voice an objection before implementing the changes on March 22nd. Abecedare (talk) 02:44, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Abecedare: OK. Is there a policy that allows a proposal to be moved forward upon, after initial objections, if the editor simply waits 50+ days? I'll also note that neither of the changes Sangdeboeuf substantively addressed the concerns that were raised, lest we forget that both of those changes were met with disagreement. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 02:47, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- See WP:SILENCE. Abecedare (talk) 02:53, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Abecedare: In both cases, there was not silence. Both of the above suggestions were actively disagreed with on the talk page by several editors. From the policy page:
As far as the difference between dissent and silence is concerned, if you voice dissent, failure to make your dissent heated and continuous does not constitute silence and therefore does not constitute consent.
The fact that Sangdeboeuf continually repeated the same points until all other editors ceased participating does not constitute consensus. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 02:57, 5 April 2019 (UTC)- I am not sure continuing this meta-discussion is fruitful. If you wish, you can argue for Sangdeboeuf edits to be undone on the article talkpage and since those edits anyway enjoyed only a weak form of consensus through silence, perhaps other editors will join in and it will become apparent that the pre-March 22nd wording is preferred. Abecedare (talk) 03:06, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- Well, respectfully, you called me out, and I disagree with your policy analysis. There was no "weak consensus." The changes that Sangdeboeuf made in March were substantively no different from what they had proposed, and what was objected to, a month or two earlier by several editors; WP:SILENCE explicitly notes that an objection does not need to be continued and persistent to constitute non-consent to consensus. If Sangdeboeuf had put forth an entirely new but similar proposal, and it was not met with any objection, and then Sangdebouef proceeded to make the change, that would better match what you're describing, but that's not what occurred.
- Anyway, I'd like to see the DS lifted so that we can all (and by "we" I mean the small group of editors still following this page) actually start making bold changes to the article and not get wrapped up in procedural matters. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 03:22, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Notability tags
FYI, I removed the notability tag from Karissa Sanbonmatsu. She clearly meets WP:PROF. Same is true for Charlotte E. Keen, Nadia Lapusta, and Shelley D. Minteer. Not sure why you are tagging these pages for notability...especially since you have experience with articles on academics. Thsmi002 (talk) 16:04, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- The tags were for missing secondary sources, which are how the subject meets one of the 9 criteria under WP:PROF as I understand it. If you disagree, that's fine, but I think these articles would benefit from more such sources if they're out there. I've written several articles on academics and always sought to include secondary sources. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 16:09, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- On closer review, I see that Karissa Sanbonmatsu has received mentions in several secondary sources—that's fine, and I agree with removing the tag. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 16:18, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - you should re-read WP:NPROF. NPROF is the big exception to WP:NBIO - secondary coverage is not required for the NPROF criteria. e.g. if you have a named chair at MIT (even if verifiable only to MIT) you meet NPROF(5). If you have a h-index of 30 (this is field dependent, and you need to look at citations beyond just h-index) - you generally meet NPROF(1). Icewhiz (talk) 17:44, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Fair enough—WP:NPROF clearly applies. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 17:49, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- There's an important distinction in this policy you're missing, Icewhiz. There is no specific statement in this policy that an article need not include any reference to secondary sources. If a person were a chair at Harvard or MIT, a lack of secondary sources likely wouldn't be a reason not to create an article. For tenured professors that have not received secondary coverage and do not hold a similarly high-ranked position, it's very much in question whether we can rely only on primary sources. How else can we judge a scholar's impact in a field? Wikieditor19920 (talk) 19:02, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Most SNGs do not subvert GNG, but clearly state they create a presumption of SIGCOV. PROF, in contrast, does not. The justification is that a widely cited scholar might not actually have secondary coverage in RSes - but might still have a huge impact in the field by virtue of thousands and even tens of thousands of citations in academic works (which is verifiable).Icewhiz (talk) 19:18, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- The other exception to GNG is WP:GEOLAND (populated places) by Wikipedia being a gazateer - and there might be another I do not recall now.Icewhiz (talk) 19:21, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- This of analysis for notability raises questions, though. Citations are one objective way to measure impact, but that requires some pretty deep digging and there's no standard on what qualifies as wide impact. What caliber of university does the professor need to hail from? Are there other measurements to go by in the absence of secondary sources? I think this policy could use some fleshing out. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 19:28, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but if at all the editorial consensus is to widen NPROF, not tighten it. Google-scholar with an "author:" search will give you a pretty quick view of citations - clearly notable ones stand out (e.g. hundreds of citations on multiple papers) - the more borderline ones are more difficult to evaluate and are very field specific.Icewhiz (talk) 19:38, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- In any case, I think there should be more clarification on what qualifies as "widely cited." Seems like it requires subscription to a more advanced search tool like Scopus to verify. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 21:42, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

- I would like to add that adding a notability tag to Shelley D. Minteer here was also not according to WP:PROF, since the AAAS Fellowship qualifies here according to WP:PROF criterion 3. Please check the WP:PROF criteria carefully before adding a notability tag to an academic biography. Markus Pössel (talk) 09:59, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Markus Pössel: I agree, my mistake! Wikieditor19920 (talk) 11:57, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
Regarding this edit summary: I explained my basis for removing the content on the talk page. Then I waited for 24 hours. When another editor also voice and objection, I checked your contributions and noted that you had returned to editing but were not responding to the talk page discussion, and after all that, I chose to revert the change. There's ample basis to revert at that point, and there's ample basis for me to revert right now. I'll leave that to someone else, but you need to refrain from casting aspersions (calling things disruptive and whitewashing without basis) and asserting ownership over article content (by acting like no one is allowed to revert you even when you don't defend your edits) Nblund talk 03:48, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Nblund: I have already made my argument on the talk page, and your response was not substantive in the least. I do not need to keep repeating the same points for you. You also appear to not understand what I mean by basis: you are certainly allowed to revert, but you have no actual policy basis for doing so other than WP:IDONTLIKEIT and your arguments on the talk page are vague and generic, and do not address the issue at hand. Further, no aspersions were cast—a reputable newspaper covered information about the subject's arrest in 2013, which was fact-checked by Snopes, and it was became relevant at a point during the political campaign (which is why it was covered). It is well-sourced, verifiable, and factual, and your belief that it is "salacious" is not a legitimate reason to remove it. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 04:08, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- No, frankly I don't understand what you mean by "no basis". 3 other editors also don't apparently understand what you mean, so I'm afraid you are going to have to explain it unless you can convince someone to make you the king of Wikipedia. BRD might be optional, but discussion isn't, and no one is obligated to satisfy you in order to edit. Nblund talk 04:19, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Nblund: You are implying that I have not discussed my concerns on the talk page. This is not correct. The fact that the same flawed argument has been parroted by another editor(s) does not make it the right choice. You are selectively applying a highly subjective definition of “trivial” to negative information, an arrest in the subject’s background that had been covered by reliable sources, and in the process acting in a manner I see as inconsistent with NPOV. I don’t see that as a valid basis for your revert. I don’t intend to discuss it further here. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 04:25, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Responding to your query
Asked editor to disclose possible COI, no answer, closing in good faith |

Hi Wikieditor19920. I'd rather focus on content policy, but if it's a such a concern of yours, maybe you can explain why you think it's appropriate to bring up? --Ronz (talk) 00:37, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
|
Sorry for one more comment here that I feel a necessity. I'm going to take it that your withdrawal from this discussion means you have nothing more to say on the topic. Please don't press any of these issues further as long as you're uninterested in discussing them. --Ronz (talk) 15:19, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
- That would be incorrect. As I said on your talk page, I believe your non-answer would be seen as a refusal to disclose if you indeed have a COI at Axios. It's not something I want to have to interrogate you about. I will not pursue this matter further unless you attempt again to implement the paid-COI-disclosed editor's proposal to remove the section on paid Wiki editing at that article page. In that case, I would probably just open a thread at WP:ANI. Thank you. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 15:24, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
- So are we discussing this or not? --Ronz (talk) 16:05, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Ronz: Unless you have a disclosure you'd like to make, we have nothing more to discuss. To my mind, your reaction here suggests I'm on the right track. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 21:56, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
- If you won't discuss it, then it's difficult to see as anything other than harassment. Please rethink your approach. --Ronz (talk) 03:23, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Ronz: Please. You're the one still posting on my talk page. You have steadfastly refused to answer whether or not you have a COI, so I have no interest in discussing it further with you if you're not willing to be forthright. I may well decide to raise it in a separate forum if I feel it's necessary. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 03:26, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
- And by the way, any editor is perfectly entitled to ask about a COI if they suspect one or notice any red flags. Your behavior on this talk page raises a big one. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 03:29, 19 May 2019 (UTC)
- Watch that entitlement you believe you have. --Ronz (talk) 03:44, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

- @Ronz: Unless you have a disclosure you'd like to make, we have nothing more to discuss. To my mind, your reaction here suggests I'm on the right track. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 21:56, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

Axios (website)
Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Axios (website), without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. --Ronz (talk) 02:38, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
Why would someone refuse to disclose COI?
Hi, hope it's not inappropriate. But I find easier to comprehend answers from people compared to articles (and I don't exactly know which one). I wanted to ask:
Why would someone refuse to disclose, rather than just lie if they indeed have a COI? Is there a robust system that catches those kind of lies? What happens if they get caught lying? Is there real life repercussions; or are editors just afraid of losing their achievements/status they have accumulated and so can't chance getting their accounts deleted?
Answering at your convenience is fine. TIA. Usedtobecool (talk) 21:01, 21 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Usedtobecool: I couldn't tell you, unfortunately. Perhaps because an editor would rather not outright lie but also doesn't feel obligated to disclose? Wikieditor19920 (talk) 21:12, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

July 2019
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Antifa (United States); that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ST47 (talk) 00:01, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
- @ST47: Fair enough. I've now expressed my concerns about the length and detail in the lead to the talk page. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 00:06, 22 July 2019 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:QuestFour and User:Wikieditor19920 reported by User:EvergreenFir (Result: ). Thank you. EvergreenFir (talk) 20:33, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
Warning
I'm glad you realize you can't continue edit warring like this, and that you need to emphasize on reaching resolution on the article talk page. I have now placed 1RR to the article, so you are allowed, at most, 1 revert per 24 hours. Further sanctions including but not limited to blocking, article ban, or further tightening other restrictions are all likely outcome to there being chronic edit warring on the article. Thank you.

Please be aware of the discretionary sanctions for American politics
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. Bishonen | talk 11:27, 28 December 2019 (UTC).
Wikieditor19920, here you say "What a dishonest post" to a fellow editor. I could equally say about your own comment, "What an insulting post". Please comment on content, not editors. If you continue to attack those with different opinions than yourself as dishonest, utterly biased, and sneaky, you may be topic banned from American politics. I appreciate that the tone of the discussion on Talk:Ilhan Omar is generally pretty angry and accusatory, but IMO, speaking as an uninvolved reader coming fresh to the page, your posts, especially in the section "Removal of anti-semitism controversy from lead", stand out as the worst in this respect. Bishonen | talk 11:27, 28 December 2019 (UTC).

Goucher College
Hello, please see my comments on Talk:Goucher College/GA1. Best. Taewangkorea (talk) 21:28, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. I've started to address some of your suggestions, will try to incorporate the rest later this week. Just note that I am limited by what's been covered in reliable sources -- there are certain sections I can't add much to without over-relying on primary or other non-optimal sources. Even so, I'll do my best to expand where I can. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 22:02, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Wikieditor19920: Ok. Thank you. I will take a closer look early next week or later this week. Also, please ping me @Taewangkorea: so I can know about the reply. Taewangkorea (talk) 22:41, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
Apropos of this: warning
Don't post on Objective3000's talkpage again or you will be blocked. Dial down your hostility and snarliness towards people you disagree with or you will be blocked. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. Bishonen | talk 13:31, 8 January 2020 (UTC).
- @Bishonen: Thank you for the notice. I hope this apparent interaction ban on each other's talk pages goes both ways. I posted on 03000's page because I had concerns about their possibly following my edits and making changes to that page that I and others found counter-productive because it regarded content under active discussion. 03000 responded with a note on my page calling this a "personal attack." Obviously, ours was not a productive interaction. In the future, it's clear I will have to take such concerns directly to ANI. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 22:16, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

DYK for Goucher College
On 18 February 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Goucher College, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Newsweek described the Goucher College campus in Towson, Maryland, as "unusually bucolic"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Goucher College. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Goucher College), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

way forward
Hi there, I am posting here as a sort of side discussion. My thoughts are still the same that i expressed there. Now that the thread has come this far. I would like to understand what according to you can be an acceptable closure of this ani case between you two. Do you have any bright ideas to resolve this. Can you propose any self imposed restriction that can help you going forward. What self imposed restriction if any do you want SharabSalam to impose on himself to resolve this. ⋙–DBigXrayᗙ 23:22, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, DBigXray. Thanks for posting on my page. For the most part, I think I've expressed my views as well. At a baseline? I'd like to see the behavior I raised an issue with stopped. If it's self-imposed, great. Frankly, I believe that SharabSalam should be issued a warning for the personal attacks, which should escalate to a temporary block if they continue with me or anyone else, or at the thread in question. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 23:35, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
- So you consider his comments as deserving a warning while your own conduct as acceptable? ~ ⋙–DBigXrayᗙ 23:39, 26 February 2020 (UTC)
- @DBigXray: Obviously his comments deserve a warning. Maybe you can clarify what you're referring to with me, but this seems like a loaded question. I appreciate the diplomatic tone you're taking here, but from my view you've been trying to recast the whole ANI discussion as about me (relying mostly on vague accusations of WP:BOOMERANG while overlooking SharabSalam's comments. It's not something I'm thrilled with and want to get into much more than I already have. Wikieditor19920 (talk) 00:16, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
