What we are not

Please read WP:NOT and wp:advocacy, also do not cast aspersions or attack other uses.Slatersteven (talk) 16:38, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Also please read wp:m minor edits are not changes in tone or substance.Slatersteven (talk) 16:39, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Given your user page statement you might also want to read wp:rs and wp:v, we only say what RS explicitly say, not our own understanding of what they say (seewp:or). Any statement should (if challenged) be supported by reliable third party sources. Any claim supported by third party sources can only really be challenged if other RS have challenged it, it does not matter if we know it is not true.Slatersteven (talk) 16:45, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

It's literally just my user bio what do you mean, why would I need to 'verify' information about myself? RightTruthTeller (talk) 17:54, 13 February 2019 (UTC)RightTruthTeller

What? I am telling you that if you mean what you say in your user Bio you need to read the applicable polices about things like reliable and adequate sources and what we mean by it. If you do not follow our polices on RS or Verifiaiblty then your mission statement is meaningless. No experienced user is here to tell lies or distort sources.Slatersteven (talk) 18:44, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Unconstructive editing

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Misplaced Pages articles, as you did to Far-right politics in the United Kingdom. Doing so violates Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Zazpot (talk) 19:25, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Here's a fun fact for you, I never ever tried to 'add commentary' or my own point of view, I simply edited the outdated article to include the up-to-date information. The article claimed that Tommy Robinson was the leader of the EDL, which is of course not true, therefore I changed it to read 'ex-leader'. It almost seems like you are trying to censor truth...?

Also, I really do not understand why one is not allowed to edit their own page to their liking. Who better to write my own bio than fucking me. Perhaps you would volunteer to study my life and then maybe write the bio for me? I assume you'd like to tell me all about myself.

I assume Zazpot was talking about this edit. You added the bolded part to UKIP was then widely described as moving into far-right territory, a description which is of course untrue, ... without citing a source for it, contradicting the meaning of the first clause, leaving us to believe it is simply your POV. Unless you cite a WP:RS, that's what it looks like.

You also edited Batten focused the party more on opposing Islam... to change "Islam" to "Islamic extremism", which again changes the meaning of the sentence, without citing a source, again looking like it's your POV.

Continuing, ...and sought closer relations with the far-right activist Tommy Robinson..., where you removed the "far-right" without citing a WP:RS that contradicts the others that say he is.

That is why we say you are adding commentary/your own POV/WP:OR – because you haven't cited the sources to defend what you wrote and show that it is not just your opinion.

The comments did not apply to what you write in your bio. We are simply reading your bio and taking it at face value, which shows a number of potentially problematic behaviors, like WP:BATTLEGROUND and WP:GREATWRONGS. —— 02:44, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

@AlanM1: exactly. Thank you. Zazpot (talk) 02:39, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
