Wikipedia talk:Requests for comment/Antisemitism

message: I would like to explain why this issue is not a content dispute. The issue brought here is clear rejection of reliable sources like Bernard Lewis, Claude Cahen, scientific encyclopedias like Encyclopedia of Islam, etc etc. Such rejection is furthermore done by a group of experienced wikipedian. It is not a content dispute but rather timewasting attempts to trash sound academic research. --Aminz 07:27, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it is not. When user:Humus sapiens rejects reliability of Encyclopedia of Islam because "After that quote it doesn't seem trustworthy", and then doesn't allow others to use that source, it is violation of WP:NPOV and WP:RS.

replies: text: I've been looking over some of the blood libel articles. I think decisions on sourcing necessarily have to be made there. I lean toward inclusion, subject to due weight, article length, and good writing - pages should stay on topic, and topics should be spun off to their own pages and summarized. Beyond that I can't say much, having really not much expertise in the area. I am surprised to hear Antisemitism described as theological hostility. I thougt it was based on ethnicity, but maybe the pretext for ill treatment has varied with time and place. Tom Harrison Talk 02:06, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Could we research and find out why schools have the tradtion of colors and mascosts? 204.126.2.5 03:40, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: History

message: Common primary colors include orange, purple, blue, red, and green. These colors are either paired with a 333color representing a metal (often black, brown, gray (or silver), white, or gold), or occasionally each other, such as orange/blue, red/green, or blue/yellow. Pairing two metals, such as black/white, silver/gold, and especially black/gold, is also a common practice.
So we can pair any primary color with any metal... or any primary color with any other primary color... or any metal with any other metal. Hmm.
Is this really necessary?

replies: text: This section should be a list of school colours that have Wikipedia article, meaning they have have passed Wikipedia's notability criteria. (Also palatinate is a shade of purple,  and Cambridge blue and Eton blue are both shades of green, so it's not actually just blue). It looks like RISD, Tufts and UCLA blue no longer have articles of their own, having been merged into other articles a few months ago; these should probably be removed (and I have now done so). If any other school colours have articles, these should be added (there aren't any others with articles in :Category:School colors, however). ~~~ Robminchin (talk) 02:47, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: You may have heard of him, but I assure you the encyclopedia-reading public hasn't. If he's Australia's biggest expert on this tree (itself an innately difficult-to-prove claim) then sources are required to back it up. Not my rule - it's Wikipedia's. If you make a claim that isn't self-evident to a majority, i.e sugar is sweet, the sun is yellow, the sky is blue, etc, then it requires citations. See WP:V and WP:SOURCE before making further changes of this nature to this article. And if this person suffers from a psychological disorder, how is it relevant to the article about red cedars?

I've read a few things about this line going there as far back as the late-1950's, and a few things about it on Main Line station articles between Jamaica and Rockaway Junction, but I can't find too much else on when it was moved there, or realigned to the Atlantic Branch.

Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/RPJ/Proposed decision

message: I am trying to understand part of this decision. Do I gather that the ArbCom has decided that spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk is an unacceptable source for Wikipedia articles (as against simply having been ill-used by one contributor, or having a problem in some particular article)? I imagine we have several thousand citations from that source. Are we now supposed to consider those all invalid? If so, can someone expand on why exactly the source is considered unacceptable? On topics where I have expertise (mostly dealing with the Spanish-speaking world, also with the French Revolution), I've found it to be pretty consistently on the mark. - Jmabel | Talk 08:44, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Absurdistan

message: Just wanted to mention that many Bulgarians call our country Absurdistan. I'm too lazy to find reliable sources (and it's probably pretty hard, because it's people who call it that way, not the media (or at least not the mainstream media)), so I didn't add it, but if you're reading this, then you should just know it: there is no better example of an Absurdistan than Bulgaria. Despite the fact that it's a much better country to live in than Afghanistan for example, it is the epitome of "Absurdistan" and people (including me) call it like that for a reason.
P.S. Hmm, actually I'm gonna add Bulgaria, the other countries don't have sources either. And most importantly, people should know the truth. If original research was allowed on Wikipedia, I would've written a whole paragraph about my terrible country :) Sorry for the rant. 77.70.30.216 (talk) 05:19, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Angry White Pyjamas

message: Possibly worth mentioning that he misinterprets the origins of BJJ, writing of the Gracies that "the grandfather had visited Japan and learned basic grappling techniques more or less similar to judo techniques” (p254, 1999 paperback edition), when its the other way round: a Japanese judoka, Mitsuyo Maeda, visited Brazil, which is where he taught Carlos Gracie, the son of 'grandfather' (presumably because Twigger mentions Royce) Gastão Gracie. Secondly, Twigger makes the strange error of stating that UFC III was held in Tokyo (p258), when of course it was actually held in Charlotte, North Carolina. 
But that might be too trivial to put in the main article, hence why I'm sticking it up here. Also, what appear to be reactions by people mentioned in the book can be found here, which if genuine could be worth putting in the links section. Slideyfoot (talk) 15:25, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:World Socialist Party (New Zealand)

message: This article is written in the present tense and the WSP is listed in the template of current NZ political parties. But the List of political parties in New Zealand page says it existed until 1996. I've been trying to work out which is correct and have found the following:
*The party is not a registered political party (currently, have not found evidence of past registration
*The party has not contested an election (list or electorate) in over 20 years.
*The party's website linked in this article does not describe any action the party has taken or plans for future actions. The site is devoid of any dates that might have suggested when the party was active. The website design appears old - it is a Geocities page with a broken visitor's counter and only seven short pages. 
*A Google search uncovered another page which might relate to the party - http://www.worldsocialism.org/nz/. This website mentions a party conference in 2004 (though little details are given) and that as of "Summer 2008" radio broadcasts had resumed. These are the most recent events mentioned with in the page. (In my opnion, both this and the Geocities page appear not to have been edited in a long time.) However, it appears that the PO Box listed on that site is still registered to the party.
*I search news site Stuff for "World Socialist Party", both with and without quotation marks. I found no articles mentioning this party.
In short, there isn't any good evidence this party still exists. Unless anyone objects, I'll rewrite this article to reflect that, as best as possible given the lack of information. HenryCrun15 (talk) 13:26, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

message: This article says that "In 1971, the party contested its first parliamentary election". The source cited for this statement says the same thing—but there was no general election in 1971, nor any by-elections. Were, perhaps, one/some of the 43 independent candidates at the 1972 New Zealand general election affiliated with the World Socialist Party? Moreover, the page for Hutt (New Zealand electorate) gives a World Socialist candidate for the 1946, 1949, and 1951 general elections.

Talk:Lawrence Street – MetroTech (BMT Fourth Avenue Line)

message: This is a good example of a situation I described at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New York City Subway#Station complexes. This station is in Brooklyn Heights and has very little space on The Map for its name, thus the MTA shortens it to "Lawrence Street". On the most of the individual line pages (e.g., , ), the station is referred to as "Lawrence Street–MetroTech", as well as on the signage. This is part of the MTA's new emphasis on neighborhoods in station names, and an example of where the name on The Map is an unfortunate consequence of lack of space.
