message: The reason for the latest lock was edit warring over sourced content;  deleted the content last . The rationale doesn't hold--there was clearly not a consensus to remove the content, and the accounts removing it were all new WP:SPAs, not a discernible 'community.' If SF Gate isn't deemed enough of a source by itself, it's not hard to find WP:RELIABLE sources. For Pizzagate, . For vaccine rant, . It may well be debated whether the content belongs here as WP:NOTNEWS, and I welcome others to weigh in. It also appears that his views are more nuanced than the headlines suggest. But if we're deleting it, let's do so with a real rationale, and with consensus. Thanks, 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 23:35, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for starting this discussion. WP:ONUS seems applicable here:  It seems we're now in the discuss phase of WP:BRD.—Bagumba (talk) 02:16, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  first added the content--perhaps they'd like to join the discussion. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 03:17, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Bagumba I discussed the edit with the long time editor who deleted it last. He has no problem with me undoing his revert. The 11-minute video Bogut posted to his Instagram account in which he said he and unnamed others had been offered money by unnamed persons to support the Aussie lockdown remains posted https://www.instagram.com/tv/CS00F6nnygH/ There was considerable press coverage for his tweeted support of the Pizzagate conspiracy theory in November and December 2016. There's nothing wrong with the SF Gate as a source as it's the leading such news source in the San Francisco Bay Area, associated with a newspaper that's been around for maybe 120 years. The story has a number of hyperlinks to other RSS within it. Activist (talk) 08:44, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  I assume you are referring to ? He wasn't the only editor who reverted it. At any rate, discussion here is preferable to reach a consensus if any further disputes should arise on this topic. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 09:03, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Activist reached out via email. I noted that if he wanted to revert me, then I essentially won't be fighting any further over content I don't have much passion for. Consensus should probably be reached here though, but I doubt many will chime in. DaHuzyBru (talk) 10:32, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: @Bagumba There were four (?) IP editors who reverted, plus (?) one SPA who reverted three times in one day, the only edits that User has ever made. I wrote directly to the remaining User, DaHazyBru because I've seen his edits for years, knew him to be extremely knowledgeable and never had any problems with any editing he's ever done. Had he noted a specific problem with my edit, I would have certainly given his objection due respect. I've been editing for 15 years and have never written to any editor about an edit with which I disagreed, but wanted to avoid an edit war with what may have been a single SPA who moved from a MacDonald's to a Dairy Queen to a Burger King to make his or her IP reverts. When I restored and modified my original edit, I modified it slightly after having watched the 11-minute Instagram video posted by Bogut himself, and also added a new citation that was a contemporary one from the Pizzagate issue five years ago, rather than depend solely on the SF Gate citation hyperlinks. Bogut's comments were made in a context where hundreds of domestic anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers and lockdown protesters had been arrested in Australian demonstrations.

replies: text: I don't have an opinion at this point.  Just want to minimize reverts here on my watchlist. Cheers.—Bagumba (talk) 13:44, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

text: @Bagumba Hi I am new to the editing, I will have to study how to do it more comprehensively but my main reason for editing the Bogut page was that I think calling him a conspiracy theorist is a bit far, I understand the pizzagate part is certainly a conspiracy but the parts about Australia to be honest are pretty well founded, there is no doubt lockdowns here have disproportionately affected the poor. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/sep/01/the-latest-covid-lockdowns-have-locked-australias-poorest-out-of-financial-support https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2020/10/07/covid-19-to-add-as-many-as-150-million-extreme-poor-by-2021 https://www.9news.com.au/national/victoria-coronavirus-lockdowns-has-punishing-effect-on-young-and-poor/ed4bc7d0-8b99-44f7-b6b8-afe96a9bfcbc there is extreme frustation here https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-57911032 the foodbank was closed to the poor because it was overwhelmed https://www.pedestrian.tv/news/foodbank-victoria-closed-covid/ our politicians in Victoria have recieved extreme pay rises while many are going poor https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9727047/Dan-Andrews-Covid-bungling-buddies-PAY-RISE-big-jump-giving-452-000.htmlhttps://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/daniel-andrews-says-there-is-no-pressure-on-mps-to-donate-controversial-pay-rise/news-story/3d732212088e6ece228b97344836daab playgrounds were closed to children https://www.theage.com.au/politics/victoria/push-for-playgrounds-to-reopen-amid-fears-for-children-s-mental-health-20210818-p58jwz.html the claim about celebrities getting paid is not completely unfounded, collingwood captain scott pendlebury gave a thumbs up on the post and many celebrities have been on ads, instagram etc. promoting to stay at home etc https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-07/ben-lee-backs-music-industry-covid-19-vaccination-campaign/100439498 while many of those telling us to stay home fly in and out as they please https://www.forbes.com/sites/tamarathiessen/2020/07/25/australia-hollywood-celebrities-dodge-hotel-quarantine/?sh=6d5a4ae52da8 cases are increasing despite these harsh lockdowns even with the vaccine rollout https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-07/victoria-covid-cases-lockdown-vaccines/100439292 even our prime minister flew for fathers day while many cannot see their families https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-07/scott-morrison-fathers-day-sydney-canberra-hold-the-hose/100441258 if anything Andrew Bogut is a hero for speaking out certainly not a conspiracy theorist.

text: I'm pinging , who had reverted your last edit, for their perspective.—Bagumba (talk) 08:22, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The reason for my revert was that it removed sourced content and to support this cited in the edit summary an item in The Guardian which is actually an opinion piece and therefore not something we place any reliance on - it's just someone else's opinion. Personally I'd not have any objection to this section saying that while some people criticised him, others supported his stance - provided both statements were backed up by citations to  reliable sources, of course. If that were the case, that would probably justify changing the section name too. Neiltonks (talk) 11:52, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

text: My advice is to limit the use of sources that don't mention Bogut specifically.  Otherwise, there's a risk of turning his bio into a coatrack for a wide range of politics.—Bagumba (talk) 15:17, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

text: I didn't look at any of the content, but I did change the header to a more neutral "Political views" per  WP:CSECTION and reworded "claim' per MOS:CLAIM.—Bagumba (talk) 12:19, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
