DC comics a redundant acronym or not?

This is a great example as to why wikipedia is not considered a valid academic source. Being in line with a secondary source is more important than being factually accurate. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 02:01, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

This would be User:Kompress0 again. One might think that after the recent, and lengthy, discussion they took part in at User talk:97.112.208.74 they would try something new, (like leaving this poor dead horse carcass alone... imho) - wolf 04:36, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Just understand the idea that facts > 'secondary sources' and the edit will be left alone. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 06:34, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Erm... no. Your "facts" = WP:OR, and WP:RS always trumps WP:OR. You clearly do not understand Misplaced Pages, (or maybe you do, but just like to stir the pot). Anyway, the fact is you are blocked and not supposed to be editing, not even here on this talk page. So, I think we're done here. - wolf 07:21, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

No, my facts are based on logic and reason. Appealing to a third party source is confirmation bias. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 14:55, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for persistently making disruptive edits. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Misplaced Pages's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 14:54, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Unblock request

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

97.112.200.145 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

My edit was factually correct, as it always has been. Blindly reverting it because of a 'third party source' is a great example as to why wikipedia is not considered a valid academic source 97.112.200.145 (talk) 14:56, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Misplaced Pages, or
the block is no longer necessary because you
1. understand what you have been blocked for,
2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 15:03, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Unblock Request

97.112.200.145 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I addressed exactly why I was blocked. I made a factual edit that was continually reverted because of a 'third party source'. DC Comics is not, nor will it ever be a redundant acronym. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 15:06, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You are confused. You were not blocked because of whether or not DC Comics is a redundant acronym, you were blocked for trying to bludgeon your preferred version instead of establishing a consensus on the talk page. PhilKnight (talk) 16:54, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

97.112.200.145 (talk) 15:06, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

This has been explained to you several times over. We go on what sources say, not your own personal opinion. Edit warring isn't justified no matter how right you think you are. — Czello 16:19, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

It wasn't personal opinion. I stated the fact that Detective Comics is the company while comics are a product they sell. Absolutely zero opinion anywhere in that. There's an identical in principle entry under NON examples with 'OPEC countries'. The C in OPEC stands for 'countries' but OPEC is the organization while countries are countries that belong to the organization

Understand now? 97.112.200.145 (talk) 19:29, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

To drive the point home, from the article;

"Similarly, "OPEC countries" are two or more member states of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, whereas "OPEC" by itself denotes the overall organization"

Now...

Similarly, "DC comics" are a product sold by the company 'Detective Comics', whereas "DC" by itself denotes the overall company

You

Get

Now? 97.112.200.145 (talk) 19:36, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

We go by what sources say. See WP:TRUTH. Do you get it now? — Czello 21:26, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

So I can go edit the page on earth to say it's flat because there are flat earth websites?

Fact trumps secondary hearsay, all day.

I will edit it, I will continue to edit it, until that sinks in. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 21:31, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Oh, you don't get it. Ultimately if you keep editing you'll just keep getting blocked. And your unblock requests will always be denied if you're promising to resume your behaviour. There's only one way you can get your way, and it's on the talk page. Brute force never works. — Czello 21:38, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Yeah because blocking me has worked so well so far.

I've made my case, stating absolute indisputable facts, on the talk page. People just whine about sources

If brute force doesn't work you're just not using enough. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 21:48, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Well, yes, it has worked. The article still lists DC as it will continue to do so as you remain blocked now and in the future. But I'm sure the admin reviewing your block below will take your words into account. — Czello 21:53, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

It's still on there temporarily, by that logic then my method has worked because because it is also sporadically and temporarily removed.

Just value facts over 'muh sources' and there's no issue.

I'm being serious here. This is the PERFECT example of why absolutely no academic institute consider wikipedia a valid source. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 22:02, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Academic institutes should not consider Misplaced Pages as a valid source, see Misplaced Pages is not a reliable source. That is exactly correct. Misplaced Pages is a content aggregator, readers should examine the sources used directly, they should not trust Misplaced Pages blindly. 331dot (talk) 23:44, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Apparently they shouldn't trust wikipedia at all since demonstrable facts are ignored in favor of erroneous sources. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 01:08, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Unblock request

97.112.200.145 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

But if my edit had been left alone given the facts (Not opinion, facts) that I presented explaining definitively why it is NOT a redundant acronym, there would have been no need for a second edit. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 19:31, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

This does not address the reason for the block. 331dot (talk) 23:45, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Unblock request

97.112.200.145 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

The reason for the block was that my demonstrably factual edit was continually reverted 97.112.200.145 (talk) 01:09, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Wrong. --jpgordon 01:41, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Unblock request

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

97.112.200.145 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Well let's see, if my entirely factual edit had been left alone then no further edits would've been necessary on my part. So yes, this is because my 100% entirely factually accurate edit was continually reverted. 97.112.200.145 (talk) 02:16, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

Notes:

In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=Well let's see, if my entirely factual edit had been left alone then no further edits would've been necessary on my part.  So yes, this is because my 100% entirely factually accurate edit was continually reverted. ] (]) 02:16, 3 August 2023 (UTC) |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=Well let's see, if my entirely factual edit had been left alone then no further edits would've been necessary on my part.  So yes, this is because my 100% entirely factually accurate edit was continually reverted. ] (]) 02:16, 3 August 2023 (UTC) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=Well let's see, if my entirely factual edit had been left alone then no further edits would've been necessary on my part.  So yes, this is because my 100% entirely factually accurate edit was continually reverted. ] (]) 02:16, 3 August 2023 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
