Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Artaxerex/Evidence

message: My original comment with working links can be found here. Let me just make clear that Artaxerex does not deserve to be banned. Although he did make some mistakes initially when he first joined wikipedia, many of the subsequents accusations against him are unfair. I am very impressed with his knowledge about the subjects he edits and hope he will continue at wikipedia. --- Melca 19:51, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Moved from Artaxarex's evidence section

message: You are arguing that all the materials that I have provided were rejected by a consensus from other editors. If you are an Irishman, as you claim you are, you must be aware that there is a need for the voicing of the opposite views, even if they are held by a minority (this has been the conventional practice in the west since the days of enlightenment.)
I am very surprised that you have been acting like Mehrshad123, and the rest of those Iranian editors who try to eliminate any well-sourced historical negative points about the Reza, and Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Please read the historical references that I have provided and if you have any valid source for their rebuttals  please provide them. Respectfully Yours Artaxerex 21:44, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Wesley, I'm sorry, but you haven't established that you aren't a puppet -- especially since you have 5 edits total at this point. I don't think Lisa can fairly take the accusation out at this point.--SarekOfVulcan 21:19, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Please look at those edits more carefully:
a) they consist of only two actual comments:
	1) my one comment to you regarding WP:BLP (edited three times)
	2) my one comment on RFC page asking lisasmall to remove meat puppet implication (edited twice)
b) comment (1) was edited three times within three minutes and comment (2) was edited twice within 3 minutes
c) it should be quite clear that I posted only twice and the edits were to correct mistakes because of my own unfamiliarity with posting using Wikipedia's unique system. All of which is really ancillary and has nothing to do with the accusation because two of those edits were made afterward to defend myself and request the removal of the accusation from the RFC. 
Please don't attempt to obfuscate the issue with irrelevant information that is out of context. The editor making the accusation in the RFC must bear the burden of proof and a singular posting (the contents of which was a discussion of WP policy, and with which you agreed by the way) hardly counts as evidence. 
Please remove the reference and implication.Wesleyk 13:20, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Objective sources

message: Good, common sense essay. I try to follow these guidelines myself. For instance, if I see something sourced to MediaMatters or WorldNetDaily that actually refers to something that was originally published by AP or CNN, I will find the original source, and change the citation to point to it directly. That gets the reader directly to the reliable source, without having to wade through the spin that is usually applied to that source on the less objective sites. - Crockspot 19:57, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I completely agree with Crockspot's comments above, and think this is a great topic for an essay. I know I've encountered more than one occasion when a discussion closely resembled the example given within the essay. It's usually related to the use of a source such as John Stewart or Colbert, whose reports may or may not contain 100% truth, but are certainly meant to be comedic. While the facts may well be presented accurately, a CNN article that contains the same facts is more reputable and/or reliable for building encyclopedic articles on major political figures. This essay is very relevant. - auburnpilot talk 01:25, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree as well.  I am particularly troubled by articles dominated by references from one source which fall into the area of questionable resources as it gives the general impression that wikipedia is biased.  I think this could help with the overall view of wikipedia as a valuable resource.  Arzel 03:46, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Norfolkline

message: Lots of commas are missing, language is bad as the sentences are way to long and structured in a bad way, the authors refer to themselves by using "our managed contract" and similar sentence parts, the references/links point to the same location.
I already changed "their" to "there", the first one being a possessive pronoun and the latter one being an indicator for locations. This shouldn't ever happen to anyone to mix up these two very different words.
Actually, the whole article is not very well structured, giving all information in the section "History". Astonishingly, it does not provide information on other things than company sales and its steady growing.
Besides, it lacks information about quality, prices, recommendations, competitors, quality of service.
After having read this text, I cannot decide on whether to use this ferry, nor do I possess any new references than the one I already had.
In order to sum up, I strongly recommend declaring this article as "deprecated", "needs much cleanup and content".

thread_title: Untitled

message: I find this section of text (from Norfolkline#Ferry division) a bit misleading:
Norfolkline operates freight ferry services on the English Channel, the Irish Sea and the North Sea. On the Irish Sea Norfolkline provides a combined freight and passenger service.
Unless this article is seeking to redefine the terms 'freight' and 'passenger' as described at the article "[Ferry]]", the description of cross-channel services as a freight ferry is just plain wrong.  I crossed with them, in a car, only a month ago! I'm going to change it to be less misleading, as I don't think it'll be a controversial change.  If I'm wrong, please discuss here. --Peeky44 (talk) 12:32, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Definitions of whiteness in the United States

message: The article claims that Sicilians were required to check off "Southern Italian," as opposed to "white." I don't care what the source article says; this is obviously incorrect. A quick check of the Ellis Island website will show ship's passenger lists from the early 1900s with every "race" under the sun, from "Southern Italian" to "Hebrew" to "German" to "Irish" to, yes, "English." It was not an either/or. 2601:246:4000:99F0:6498:E347:F78C:E267 (talk) 04:17, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

message: This page is persistently edited to classify all American Jews as "Middle Eastern". This is false, as European Jews have a different history of racial classification in the United States compared to MENA Jews.

Template talk:Europe-politician-stub

message: It is not appropriate to use the EU flag on this template. I doubt that the average person that hasn't attended university will know that the EU flag was originally used by the Council of Europe, and today, the EU has done so much of a job advertising this image as the flag of the EU, that the average man on the street now associates this flag as the EU flag. This template is only used for countries not part of the EU (+ Cyprus where the creation of more stub templates has been suspended given recurring controversy over the images used on Cypriot templates). Anyway, I'll soon be done splitting off the remaining European countries, so a few weeks from now, this template will only be used for material relating to three conflict areas: Cyprus, Kosovo and Transnistria, and I don't consider the EU flag appropriate in such contexts either. WP:WSS uses a lot of other "per continent" templates, including European templates, and they don't use icons - with the exception of a small number of South American templates that use a map.
