Social Credit System

Hi Zilch-nada, I saw you disagreed with my removal of the paragraph you added on said article. Could you please go to the talk page of the article to explain why you think the paragraph belongs? Thanks! Félix An (talk) 01:21, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Redirect blanking

Hi Zilch-nada, I've noticed you blanked a redirect, that isn't really the way delete it if you disagree with it. Instead, nominate it for deletion at WP:RfD. Justiyaya 00:09, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

My bad. Thanks! Zilch-nada (talk) 00:17, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

I don't know anything about your IP address

But I accept your statement about not making the edit. It wasn't a baseless suggestion though as the intent of the IP's edit and yours was similar, removing sourced material about left-wing terrorism being a relatively minor issue with a bad edit summary - yours saying "changed dismissive, irrelevant wording" when you actually changed nothing but deleted a key statement.

A quick note on talk page language

Hi @Zilch-nada:, you seem to be quite liberal in your use of language which belittles your fellow editors. Use of such language is hovering on the edges of what constitutes acceptable talk page behavior, and is generally viewed as unhelpful / non-constructive, especially when expressing differences in opinion. Please reconsider whether this is really necessary to get your point across. TucanHolmes (talk) 18:02, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Your edit of The Dispossessed

I'm not sure I understand the reasoning behind your removal of "anarchist" in the description in the first sentence. You said "unnecessary labelizing," but I'm not sure what you meant. Do you mean "labelizing" to be derogatory? I think the anarchist ideas are crucial to the novel. Just saying "utopian" admits of capitalist utopias (Star Trek, pretty much), Leninist utopias, mystical or religious utopias (Orson Scott Card), etc. I'd be happy to be convinced, but so far I think what you changed disimproves the article.
