Telos - Konturen - 1994
The reference to a Telos Conference speaker in 1994 reported in a journal hardly included in any major index to „prove“ that Telos is a far right journal is unacceptable. Frete unicolore (talk) 04:06, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- I have been in contact with the author of the original piece in Konturen, and he has indicated to me in a private email that he misremembered the event: instead, the speaker cited by Braune as having given "the keynote" at the 1994 conference (language formerly used in the Wiki entry beginning on November 28, 2023: "the keynote"), and originally listed by Lowndes as having given "a keynote," in fact *spoke from the audience*. It should be noted that the journal published the proceedings from the 1994 conference (the TOC is available online at no cost), and a paper by Sam Francis is not among them. The reckless claim that the journal gave pride of place to a white supremacist in one of its conferences could cause significant reputational damage to the organization and is arguably libelous.

Telos content
The title of the wikipedia article is NOT Paul Piccone, but TELOS. The journal now publishes for decades, and over the last twenty years or so we have had wonderful articles on Karl Polanyi, Antisemitism and other topics of utmost relevance for social science, and yet we discuss here events in the 1990s. Any reader of the journal will concede: that’s not a journal written by right-wingers, racists, Trumpists, xenophobes, sexists … Any serious debate about Telos must also be based on what has been written in the last 20 years or so … Frete unicolore (talk) 20:50, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Editing style
Hello Llll5032.
I am just curious why you make many small edits back-to-back with many "ce" type edits and edit summaries interlaced with more impactful edits to the wording or substance of an article? You could just as easily, probably more easily, make all of the edits in a single edit with a single edit summary addressing each of the points, especially when the edit summary covers the same action being undertaken. I have noticed sometimes you will lace one edit into an article followed by another edit self reverting that same edit. I know we are advised per PAG and MOS to make separate edits when the substance of the edit is altogether different, but many times I observe that is not the case in your string of edits on a page that you publish all within a very short time of each other edit.

- Hello, Iljhgtn. Some of my small edits are for correcting my own oversights, and others are to explain edits more specifically in the edit summaries. I am following WP:FIES for edit summaries (
"It is a good practice to provide a meaningful summary for every edit, especially when reverting(undoing) the actions of other editors or deleting existing text"
), but I am not aware of other PAGs about frequency of small edits. Are you aware of Misplaced Pages guidance about that? Llll5032 (talk) 18:28, 30 December 2024 (UTC)- I read WP:FIES and that is mostly about whether or not to leave an edit summary, and how it is best practice to leave one for every edit, but it does not appear apparent to me that a batch of edits that could be made as one, need to be made separately, especially so long as your edit summary accurately and correctly describes what it was that your edit was editing.

- Thanks, noted. Llll5032 (talk) 00:17, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Marty Makary
You made a large number of edits in the same manner I described above just now on Marty Makary. Many including some potentially super minor actions that could be bundled into fewer edits, such as this one, and this one, and this one. Please consider condensing this down into a fewer number of similarly styled and could therefore be similarly described in a single edit summary edits. It makes it much more difficult to review a page and see which edits are constructive and which might need to be reverted when someone speedruns through and leaves a long trail in a short period of time. Again, if each entirely separate in their description that is one thing, it is another when any of them could be published as one edit. Iljhgtn (talk) 03:51, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
