It may be useful when warning others to be more specific about what you are criticizing. I figured out easily enough that it's about , but it isn't always clear. Also I disagree with what you have said, I was not doing any original research or analysis, I was accurately representing what was in the sources, something that the preceding text was not doing. ] (]) 19:42, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

:For all the disagreement, is an edit I admire. Wanted to do something similar but I was worried about the whole "n-word in section title" thing. That and I guess if it might cause potential difficulties with hashtag section-linking if beginning with a slash. ] (]) 06:13, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Are you an admin here or something? I don't see my editing as disruptive. What you are calling OR/personal analysis/synthesis simply isn't. Your use of 'clarify' is personal analysis. My use of 'claim' is simply being NPOV. Not everyone is going to get scared off by the misapplication of these buzz terms. ] (]) 20:51, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

If there's something specific you're having trouble with, I can try to help you, but if you're going to simply ignore basic facts about how our reliable sourcing and no original research policies work, your educational journey is out of my hands and all I can do is revert you if you edit disruptively. Don't take it to that point. –] (] &sdot; ]) 20:54, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

== Re: ] ==

Your edit summary, in reverting my edit of the lede, says, "That's what the sources say." That is a false statement. Only one of the cited sources ''(Village Voice)'' alleges that more than one or two cases have been "covered up." And that source indicates that the community is now in transition, if you would please read the online version of the story all the way through to the last page. Rabbis are now telling their congregation members to go ahead and call the police. So accusing these leaders of "covering up" these crimes (A) on the basis of a single source, which itself attributes the charge to one activist for sexual abuse victims (your version fails to do that), and (B) at a time when even that one source acknowledges that any such problem was more in the past than the present, may be a BLP violation.

Furthermore, failing to inform police is not the same thing as actively concealing a crime. The term "cover up" indicates active concealment, such as destruction of evidence and intimidating witnesses. Merely failing to inform police is not a "cover up" in the usual sense of that term.

Accordingly, I am reverting until we get this sorted out. ] (]) 14:01, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Roscelese, just so it's clear to you, the probation sanctions apply to edit warring, not just to violating ]. I decided that your conduct at ] did not merit a block, but I did think about it. Please keep this in mind.--] (]) 00:32, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

As a followup...

:''you can't analyze the sources to fabricate your own conclusions.''

I realize now I did this in the one statement I removed, initially I think it seemed an obvious assumption. Though it's less obvious with you guys reverting the excerpts from the report. Why is it you want to only present quotes from Potok's late-March interview and the SPLC's May followup, but not quotes from the report itself? Shouldn't what the report actually says be more reflective of its content than later claims of what it says?

:''if you're going to simply ignore basic facts about how our reliable sourcing and no original research policies work''

What I'm trying to understand here was, besides the thing I managed to recognize on my own, is there anything left in my previous version which you take issue with as thinking to be original research? Is this the claim/clarify issue, or some other issue? I'm not ignoring the policies but it is possible for people to accidentally OR in the process of translating a reference to encyclopedic speech. If I am doing so, I'd prefer if you could point out where and why so that could be discussed more specifically.

:''all I can do is revert you if you edit disruptively''

You have options besides reverting, such as conversation. It's something I hope everyone can do more of here. I don't understand how my edits are disrupting anything. How does adding direct quotes (related to hatred, the issue of contention) disrupt things?

Is my defining ] in the parenthesis the issue you are calling OR? All I did there was transfer the definition from the opening sentence of our article about it, so that's hardly OR. Basically I want to narrow down what you keep calling OR. Is it:

#claim/clarify
#misogyny definition
#something else

The edit summaries haven't been informative about the particular details. ] (]) 03:56, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

::I have no particular objection to including additional material from the report; I just don't consider it my job to restore your acceptable edits if they were mixed in with a bunch of unacceptable ones. Next time, try ''not'' including material that violates policy. I've already explained to you why your insistence that "Misogyny: The Sites" is secretly the hate group list is not acceptable and that edits working under that assumption aren't going to be policy-compliant, and you've ignored me to make the edits again, so this bleating about how we could just talk about it while leaving policy-violating material in the article is wasting your time. –] (] &sdot; ]) 04:02, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

== JCPA stubbing ==

:::No, I figured. I'm glad I could be helpful! I think it's pretty common for new users to see an article they think isn't very good and leap to the conclusion that "Misplaced Pages endorses attack pages" or "Misplaced Pages endorses advertisements" when really all that's happened is that no one has fixed it yet. Hm, an example - well, not saying it's perfect, but something like ] is based primarily on reliable secondary sources (not publications by the organization itself, but rather sources like newspapers and scholarly books).

== Articles for deletion ==

I noticed that you're extremely vigilant at deleting Misplaced Pages articles. I was curious if you select these articles based on your personal views regarding abortion and homosexuality or if you have a genuine concern for the quality of articles on Misplaced Pages? In other words, if you're content neutral then it shouldn't matter to you if the article is in favor or against your personally held beliefs.

Let me rephrase it. If presented with evidence that articles are in violation of Misplaced Pages guidelines, irrespective of their content, would you support their deletion?

I'm trying to figure out if you're primarily targeting articles that disagree with homosexuality and abortion to vindicate a POV or if you're instead simply trying to improve Misplaced Pages. Rather than making assumptions I wanted to seek some clarification from you directly before proceeding further.

Thank you. ] (]) 16:38, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

:Clearly you haven't been ] my edit history all ''that'' diligently. –] (] &sdot; ]) 17:08, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
::Lordvolton - I think that the question itself is a bit on the ] and you might want to support your question with diffs demonstrating your perception or retract the question. This can lead no where productive.--v/r - ]] 17:20, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
:::TParis, Roscelese recently nominated One by One for deletion (organization for ex gays), Concerned Women for America (they're against homosexuality), Rachels Vineyard (pro life group), and many others. I'm simply asking for some clarification rather than assuming she has a vendetta against pro life articles and articles related to groups that disagree with the homosexual lifestyle choice. And that's why I'm asking if she is content neutral and would be in favor of deleting articles irrespective of their content. That's not a personal attack. I think it's a pretty straight forward question. Thanks. ] (]) 19:03, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
::::Are you familiar with the term "cherry picking." Essentially what you have is a small sample of her edits and you've deduced a perception based on that. When we say in ] that serious accusations require serious evidence, we mean that you'll actually have to spend a significant amount of time reviewing her AFD nominations to find a trend. Then you'll have to go through each pro-LGBT article she's touched and determine if she deliberately ignored some of those articles that fell afoul of the same criteria she has nominated others for. Unless you are willing to put in that sort of effort, you're question is on a very thin line. You'd do yourself a favor by retracting it for now and saving your concern for when you're willing to put in the investigative effort, if ever.--v/r - ]] 19:08, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
::::::TParis, I think you're protesting a bit too much. This isn't an inquisition. I'm simply asking her if she is content neutral when it comes to deleting articles rather than assuming something negative. This is her talk page -- not an admin board. You wanted to know why I asked this question -- so I supplied you with my reasons. And now you're implying that I'm being unreasonable for asking her a simple question? You're suggesting that I review her edit history to see if she has nominated for deletion or voted to delete pro-LGBT articles to determine if she deliberately ignored pro-LGBT articles that "fell afoul of the same criteria she nominated others for."
::::::I didn't realize asking this question would be so controversial, but per your request I will review her edit history and see if she has applied the same criteria to pro-LGBT articles and I will also supply a list of pro-LGBT articles that meet the same criteria for deletion. I assume she will be given every opportunity to apply the same criteria to those articles? ] (]) 21:01, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
:::::::The question isn't as simple as you think. I'm going to assume good faith that ''you'' believe it's a simple question. However, if Roscelese is on one side of a POV fence, as you believe she is, then you're clearly on the other side. As a neutral party, I think you need to take another look at your question and determine what your question implies, rather bluntly, and then redact it. Either way, had Roscelese said the same thing I did, it would've been seen as an attempt to deny. It took a third and uninvolved party to say "Hey, you're crossing a line."--v/r - ]] 23:33, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
::::::::If I was fully convinced that she was on one side of a POV fence then I wouldn't need to ask the question. You're making a lot of assumptions. In fact, you're also assuming that you're a neutral third party. If I am asking about "intent" and asking for "clarification" and you interpret that as "crossing a line" then we'll just have to disagree about your ability to be an unbiased third party. I appreciate that ''you'' think you're being helpful and perhaps something good will come out of this when I'm done with my analysis of the LGBT articles and Roscelese's edit history. That was a useful suggestion. ] (]) 02:21, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
:::::::::I don't think you're presenting yourself honestly here. A month ago, you opened an ], in which you made it unequivocally clear that you consider Roscelese a . Now you're pretending that you've got an open mind about her and are simply seeking innocent "clarifications". It's a transparently dishonest pose, and one which doesn't do you much credit. Separately, it appears your accusations were ], yet you don't seem to have taken the hint that you need to support your claims with actual evidence.<p>Here's some completely unsolicited and probably unwanted advice: do the legwork ''before'' you accuse other editors. Present actual diffs up front, rather than waiting for others to request them. Say what you mean, and don't pretend to be on some sort of innocent fact-finding mission when you're obviously trying to build a case. Remember that people can actually see the difference between what you said last month and what you're saying this month and call you on it. ''']'''&nbsp;<sup>]</sup> 06:35, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
::::::::::Mastcell, there is a difference between making a POV edit and deleting articles based on a POV. I'm not shy when it comes to making those statements as you've seen. If the two of you are going to protect editors then you need to go beyond talk pages and the pretense of being disinterested third parties and put in the ''legwork'' to determine the truth. The minute another editor starts "defending" third parties the assumption is that they've paid careful attention to the editor they're defending. Don't fall into the trap of being "tolerant" to defend "intolerance". When abusive editors are defended by the Misplaced Pages community those editors never correct their ways. What I want is editors with differing viewpoints to work together ... and that's what I've been trying to do with Roscelese. If you follow my edits you'll see that's the case.

::Points of view aside, to the best of my knowledge no editor has the single-handed power to delete "inconvenient" Misplaced Pages articles on a political basis— articles may be proposed for deletion, and an argument for that deletion can then be given and either supported or opposed by other editors ''based on Misplaced Pages's notability guidelines.'' If Roscelese decides to "cherry pick" (I am using the term anew here) articles with particular themes that she maybe finds personally objectionable and target them for deletion, she may only do so with regard to set policy— and if her argument for deletion does not meet the requirements of that policy (policy that I think everyone can agree is carefully written to be devoid of political agendas) then the article will not be deleted. Is she picking and choosing what articles to nominate for deletion? I certainly hope so! No one can assess every article on Misplaced Pages, and ''everyone'' who decides to get into the deletion nomination business must decide to which articles to give their scrutiny. Some of that initial sorting and decision-making is undoubtedly political, but the ultimate decision to keep or delete an article is not. You cannot argue to the community that an article is politically objectionable and hope to see it successfully deleted. But you ''can'' pick politically objectionable articles for ''closer scrutiny'', and then nominate them for deletion based on their shoddy references and lack of notability. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. Neutrality of point of view is a policy that relates to ''article content'', '''not''' to the decision about whether or not to propose a given article for deletion. I realize, ], that you are making an effort to maintain civility here and this after you have strayed into some rather hostile territory. For that I commend you. But your initial question, despite its neutral phrasing, is actually heavily loaded and politically charged, making its façade seem duplicitous and your intentions deeply suspect. Do you have objections to deletion decisions made about articles that Roscelese has nominated? Great! Bring them up in the deletion discussions! Make the case that she is wrong! Show the world why her arguments cannot be substantiated! Tell everyone about the evidence you have found which she did not! But if you cannot do those things, then you have no business asking polite-but-loaded questions to other editors. Truly, there is no forum for that, however civil the presentation. {And as an aside to Roscelese: if there is any merit to any of these "articles" you have nominated for deletion, consider this: sometimes keeping an article around on an "objectionable" topic can be VERY convenient! It allows you as an editor to control the presentation of that topic (like the MOMS article I just put together), including its perhaps not-so-flattering side that its supporters might not wish were on Misplaced Pages after all but to which they cannot object without losing neutrality of their own. Anyhow, that's just a thought I had, nothing more!) ]] 04:58, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
:"allows you as an editor to control the presentation of that topic" - Umm, no, it does not. See ].

Wow, you are on TOP of ]! I forget about the whole "Raw Sex in the Schools" thing for a few years, come back, put together an overdue article on one of the upity religious groups, and within minutes you have created a link to it! I am impressed. Within ''minutes''! ]] 03:39, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

==Evidence phase open - Manning naming dispute==

Dear Roscelese.

This is just a quick courtesy notice. You recently offered a statement in a request for arbitration. The Arbitration Committee has accepted that request for arbitration and an arbitration case has been opened at ]. Evidence that you wish the arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence subpage, at ]. '''Please add your evidence by September 19, 2013, which is when the evidence phase closes.''' You can also contribute to the case workshop subpage, ]. For a guide to the arbitration process, see ]. For the Arbitration Committee, ''']''' <sup>]</sup> 23:28, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

== Opinion request ==

Hi there Roscelese, I am requesting outside opinion for the ] article. The talk page section in question is "Edit warring on the "potency test". I have read ] to be certain that I am within WP policy guidelines, and it is my understanding that my request is not considered canvassing, but if I'm wrong just let me know. I left the following edit on the article talk page:

:I believe that the arguments offered here have not shown reasonable rational for inclusion of a few early reports that stated that the girl's hymen was intact, while refusing to allow very widely reported information regarding the fact that, contrary to to a statement that he was impotent, a test has confirmed his potency. Since it appears that the editors here believe that they have offered adequate argument and are reverting any attempts to add any mention of the potency test, I wish to draw a wider range of informed, but uninvolved, editors who have participated in previous discussions on the same or closely related topics. ] has done a lot of work with women's issues, ] has medical-related knowledge, and ] has worked on rape-related articles. I will place an invitation to comment on their talk pages. Of course, other editors are welcome to ask for other opinions as well.

Thanks. ] (]) 12:49, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at ] regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.<!--Template:AN-notice--> <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 04:21, 14 September 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I reverted the your removal of the canvasing tags at the above AfD discussion. The IP has, in fact, expressed a concern on this. The template does not require a diff be listed (it is shown as optional). The IP has also explained his or her concern on the page itself. If you disagree with it, you can say so, but it is not appropriate to delete or refactor another editor's comments at AfD.

:The link to a diff is optional in the template, but there's obviously no evidence of canvassing; it seems like the user (who, to all appearances, is either the same person as one or more users who have already commented, or who has come here from off-wiki as a meatpuppet) is looking for a tit-for-tat for being called an SPA due to being, you know, an SPA. That sort of personal attack is not acceptable. I haven't refactored the actual comment, but the template was used abusively. –] (] &sdot; ]) 17:45, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
::I understand, but disagree on removing the tag. I would support an SPI based on the various IP's behavior. <span style="border:1px solid #900;padding:2px;background:#fffff4">]&nbsp;]</span> 19:04, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

== Help, I need help to change the name of an article ==

Hello Roscelese, do not know if this is the right way to talk to you. But I understand some Misplaced Pages. I need help to change the name of an article (Hypothetical Names for Planets). I can not. Because I do not have the option to "move". I want to do this to increase the product and make it better and more serious reasons.

Thanks, AdAstra2013! <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 17:03, 15 September 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Unfortunately, moving the article will not help. The article appears to be your own personal ideas for the planet names, and that's not the sort of content that Misplaced Pages hosts. –] (] &sdot; ]) 17:51, 15 September 2013 (UTC)


Yes, I agree. Actually the ideas are not mine, They are scattered astrology forums. But I can not put links to pages of bibliography forums. That does not help anything. I want to change the name of the article, raise it. I want to modify the information, adding bibliography of books. I'll make it more consistent. But for that I need to change his name, to be able to also modify the content. Please help me. Do not want to miss the article is my first experience in Misplaced Pages. In addition, if the item does not look good, just delete it.

Thanks for answering! <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 16:09, 16 September 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Even so, it's not enough that the names are discussed in forums. If they were discussed in reliable sources - for instance, if newspapers reported that the IAU were considering some of the names, even if they were not official yet - we might be able to write about that. –] (] &sdot; ]) 16:57, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

I do not think I explained very well. I'm saying that I can not really use forums as sources. What I want to do is change the name of the article and put the article published literature and books. Do you understand me now?

Thanks! <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 17:23, 16 September 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:The title of the article isn't really a huge issue. If there is published literature out there that talks about those names as good names for the planets, you should add it now; we can always figure out the title later. –] (] &sdot; ]) 17:27, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
