Misplaced Pages

On the 2014 LGBT Movies Page: I don't understand why it is showing over 1000 bytes deleted. I only tried to add one movie Out in the Dark. Stuff that I never intended to delete is showing up in red (deleated in the edit history) and I don't know why. It is still there when you look at the page. SCBY (talk) 04:10, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

Draft:Creating Time of Our Lives (Song: Manse feat. Jantine)

Hello, SCBY. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, Draft:Creating Time of Our Lives (Song: Manse feat. Jantine).

In accordance with our policy that Misplaced Pages is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it. — JJMC89 (T·C) 04:49, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

DS alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Electronic cigarette topic area. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Edit war warning

Your recent editing history at Electronic cigarette shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Threat in edit summary

• See If you undo this, going to have to start arbitration.

• The content about seizures is not a summary of the body. An outbreak does not mean the risk is now high and it does not mean other content is no longer relevant. No source indicates the risk of serious adverse events is now high.

• I updated the content about smokeless tobacco using a recent review per WP:SYNC. QuackGuru (talk) 21:00, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

• I believe the last edit by QuackGuru was a violation of the 3rd revert rule. SCBY (talk) 21:51, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

I believe major situations that are still unfolding can be mentioned in the intro without being a summery of article, but I will write about it in the body and seek consensus before bringing it there.

The sentence "The risk from serious adverse events was reported in 2016 to be low." is written in a tone that falsely implies this is medical consensus when the consensus is that the long term risk of cigarettes vs e-cigs are unknown. It also must be deleted because it improperly paraphrases the original source. Corneoscleral Laceration and Ocular Burns Caused by Electronic Cigarette Explosions. The concluding paragraph of this study says "ECs pose a number of health safety risks beyond nicotine content and gateway drug concerns." The only thing even along the lines of this sentence is the embedded in the paragraph "Protective eyewear and even mouthguards may be advisable during EC use, although strict compliance is unlikely. Although the number of serious adverse events is small compared with the number of EC users worldwide, the consequences may be devastating to those involved in an EC-related blast. Because the FDA collects only voluntary reports,2 adverse events may be underreported. Further study is warranted to investigate the explosion hazard presented by these devices." SCBY (talk) 21:21, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

The risk of "serious" adverse events is low. If you find a newer source unrelated to the outbreak it can be updated. Content about the "serious" adverse events does not contradict the general long term risks. The details about the risks is in the subarticles. See "The risk from serious adverse events was reported in 2016 to be low, but the aftermath may be disastrous in respect to an e-cigarette blast." If there is something missing in the subarticles I can add it. Content about the outbreak belongs in the subarticles. It is undue weight to add more content to the main e-cig article. The readers can easily see image and a link to the outbreak article in the gallery. QuackGuru (talk) 21:34, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

When you say users can easily find more information by linking to the outbreak article, I assume you are referring to the article on outbreak of lung illnesses? Because the incidents of seizures are a separate issue and investigation

Content about seizures belongs in the Adverse effects of electronic cigarettes subarticle. I added more content about the reported seizures. QuackGuru (talk) 22:11, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
