Meme

There's nothing in the text that calls Carlson "racist". Please don't use misleading edit summaries.Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:52, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

@Volunteer Marek:No your right, it does not say Carlson is a racist. It says Carlson promoted this thing (he didn't) and this thing is like super racist... PackMecEng (talk) 15:04, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
Which he did. So what's the problem? Volunteer Marek (talk) 16:07, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
@Volunteer Marek:You don't see why that is a problem? Also the ADL source used is trash and should not be used for such statements against a BLP. PackMecEng (talk) 16:09, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
Nonsense. ADL is quite reliable.Volunteer Marek (talk) 16:11, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
And no, I don't see why following reliable source is a problem. What is the problem? Volunteer Marek (talk) 16:12, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
@Volunteer Marek:ADL is reliable yes, ADL blog post is not reliable. Big difference. The problem is the inference we are making combing the two sources to make a statement neither one individually made. PackMecEng (talk) 17:06, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
Just for clarification this is the ADL blog post I was refering to that was used in the article. PackMecEng (talk) 17:09, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Colt AR-15

I won't hold your inexperience against you, but you completely misunderstood the point here. The edit requests on the talk page are about adding a section called "uses", and that's not what I was doing. Thank you! Drmies (talk) 02:22, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

@Drmies: No worries, but you should read the opposes above your post. They all indicate opposition to any mass shooting information. PackMecEng (talk) 02:24, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
Well, that's Soviet-style dogmatism then, isn't it? What an odd kind of whitewashing--surely readers of Misplaced Pages who hear on the radio or on TV about the AR-15 will be educated by our article, and will actually come looking for that kind of information. Odd. Didn't think that such editors would support censorship. Drmies (talk) 02:26, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
@Drmies: While I understand your feels on the subject, perhaps making your case and getting consensus would be the least disruptive route given the edit warring the past few days on the article. Clams of censorship and whitewashing is not the best way to get your point across nor give you the right to act against obvious consensus. PackMecEng (talk) 02:30, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
"Feels"? Sorry, I'm 49. "Feelings"? I am not sure you understand my feelings, which are irrelevant at any rate. There is no consensus against explaining the nomenclatural confusion regarding the term "AR-15". Surely you saw that 350,000 people visited the article after the massacre committed by someone with one of those guns. Sorry to sound old, but I don't need to be patronized by someone with 1/75th the number of article edits on this project--sorry. Drmies (talk) 02:42, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
@Drmies: Regardless I have started a discussion on the talk page and it can go from there. I saw you already commented there so that's a good start have a great night! PackMecEng (talk) 02:46, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
I saw that--thanks! Drmies (talk) 02:51, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Trump poll

Hi thanks for tending to this. I think it's still not clear to newcomers. I suggest copying both versions of the language and doing an A / B or something similar. By the time we have a dozen contributors !votes, these polls keep going off track. SPECIFICO talk 15:01, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

@SPECIFICO: You are a pain in the butt, you know that? But it is a good suggestion and I will update the poll. Thanks PackMecEng (talk) 15:05, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
Cool. It's American Politics that is our nemesis. Thanks for your contributions! SPECIFICO talk 16:07, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
