"Far right"
Many right-leaning people like Milo are constantly labelled as "far right" on Misplaced Pages. Nazism is far right; Milo is not far right.
I know Misplaced Pages lacks the academic rigour of normal Encyclopedias, but it does seem to have become a bastion of left-leaning contributors.
How many people are labelled "far left" by comparison? Barely anyone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DiverseSynergy (talk • contribs) 16:23, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

List of Milo's books and Penn State appearance
Hi, I was hoping to add a list of books that Milo has published with the year and ISBNs as well as a sentence about his latest Penn State appearance. The second reference says that 10,000 people signed a petition to stop Milo. This was not a minor event. Here are some examples of Penn State coverage:

Here is a list of books with date and ISBN:

- Yiannopoulos, Milo (2020). The Trial of Roger Stone. ISBN 9789527303597.
I added one sentence about the Penn State event, but it was swiftly deleted. The list of books was also deleted. I would hope to see these basic facts included in the article.

- Please achieve consensus for a contested change rather than continuously reinserting it—you are beginning to edit war. I agree with Glendale10 that the Penn State appearance does not seem to have the kind of coverage in quality sources to justify inclusion, and should be left out. The bibliography I don't really have strong feelings about one way or the other. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 04:47, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
- Ban me all you want, GorillaWarfare. It's not like I am any to make any edits anyway. I saw this article, and it reminded me of you, GorillaWarfare. This is exactly how you operate on Misplaced Pages. You are using the platform to push your own left-wing political views.
- In the case of this article, it is perfectly acceptable to have paragraph after paragraph based on a Buzzfeed piece. But GorillaWarfare threatens to ban me if I add something neutral like a list of books published or articles from the Penn State newspaper.
- To make matters worse, people will swoop down and "archive" what I am writing here so no one can tell what is going on. Just wait for this thread to be "archived" and for me to be banned for trying to add a list of published books.

- Where have I threatened to ban you? GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 17:52, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
- Here comes GorillaWarfare within 1 minute of me posting something! You banned me in 2020, and you are threatening to ban me again in the comment above. Here is the article that reminds me of you: https://thecritic.co.uk/the-left-wing-bias-of-wikipedia/
- Do you recognize that? This is exactly how you operate, GorillaWarfare! So ban me again. It's not like I am allowed to make any edits anyway. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Myatrrcc (talk • contribs) 17:56, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
- You're yelling at me for responding promptly to a comment addressed to me?
- Ah, I see now that I blocked you in 2020 (and also explained to you that blocks are different from bans back then). In that case you should be very familiar with the behavior requirements on pages such as this one, which are subject to discretionary sanctions. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 18:00, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
- Glad that I am not banned. In that case, I will a section called "Works" that will include ISBNs.Myatrrcc (talk) 18:07, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
Self-published books are no more inherently significant than blog posts. Typically, bibliographies only include work which contributes to someone's notability. The standard way to decide this is by citing either reliable, independent sources, or at minimum, sticking to books published by reputable mainstream publishers, but even this is optional. The goal here is not to include minutia or promotional trivia, the goal should be to summarize reliable sources to provide context. Grayfell (talk) 05:28, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
Milo
I really don't think he is a alt right man. He just only supports freedom of speech and is quite hurtful on his words but to call him alt right when he is a Jewish man is kinda wrong. Because if you didn't know alt right I'd very white supremacist and anti semite and Milo is a jew 118.189.202.54 (talk) 18:22, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
- This article is nothing but a bunch of content from a Buzzfeed article from 2017. Good luck trying to make any changes to this page. Your changes will immediately be deleted and GorillaWarfare here will ban you if you try to have a conversation about it. On top of that, you can expect your comments here to be periodically "archived" so that no one can tell what is going on with this page.
- This page is a joke. It is unencyclopedic and unreadable. Milo deserves something better than this. But you will get banned right away if you try to change the fact that this article is nothing but a bloated Buzzfeed hit piece.
