== Graphics Lab help ==

Hello M.Bitton, I’ve seen that you were a routine helper at [[WP:GL/M|Graphics Lab Map workshop]] [[Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop/Archive/Jan 2024|in January]]. I was wondering if you could take the time to assist me on [[Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop#Map of Leagues Cup teams|my request]] if you do not mind. Thank you. [[User:Yovt|𝚈𝚘𝚟𝚝]] ([[User talk:Yovt|𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚔𝚟𝚝]]) 03:13, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

:I'm not sure I fully understand what you're trying to achieve. Are you trying to create a "location map" of Canada, the US and Mexico so that you can add the location dots to it? [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton#top|talk]]) 17:35, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
::Yes, although I was hoping the location dots could be added as well (not me as I am inexperienced). If for some reason you cannot take my request, I would please ask that you notify other Graphics Lab editors. [[User:Yovt|𝚈𝚘𝚟𝚝]] ([[User talk:Yovt|𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚔𝚟𝚝]]) 20:13, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
:::Unfortunately, I have neither the energy nor the time to take on what looks like a lot of work. Making a request, like you did, is the best way to get the attention of the Graphic Lab editors, although I do suggest you make it as clear as possible and perhaps do some leg work (like finding the coordinates of all the places that you want to add). The other thing worth keeping in mind is that having a map that covers such a big area comes with its own issue (the more dots there are in small areas, the less discernible they become).

== Feedback on discussion about November 2024 Amsterdam attacks ==

Hello. I have seen that you were also contributing to this page, and you have more experience with wikipedia. There is an ongoing discussion ('''Which individuals' reactions are''' [[WP:DUE]]) and ([[WP:DUE]] '''and the inclusion of "Erev Rav"'s statements'''). I was thinking that is relevant the additional content: opinions of other political parties different than the government in Netherlands, and the opinion two NGO: ''The organisations Erev Rav and the Stop Racism and Fascism Platform cancelled a local [[Kristallnacht]] commemoration  due to the 'violent' Maccabi supporters ..."''  However both are marked as WP:DUE by other editor. However to my understanding this is a relevant information as I tried to explain in the talk page of the article. I would need a second opinion of someone with more experience. Thanks [[User:AyubuZimbale|AyubuZimbale]] ([[User talk:AyubuZimbale|talk]]) 21:53, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

== A question about your response to my edit request  ==

I just saw your response to my edit request on the "Zionism as settler colonialism" article, and since the article is EC-protected and I'm not allowed to comment there directly, I hope it's ok if I ask you here - could you please elaborate why the suggestion to include the names of academics objecting this characterization, similarly to inclusion of its proponents in the lead, is "uncontroversial", in your view? [[User:Zlmark|Zlmark]] ([[User talk:Zlmark|talk]]) 22:30, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

:I suggested you read [[WP:EDITXY]]. Once done, you can decide by yourself whether your edit request is "uncontroversial", "necessary" and "sensible" or whether it "has consensus". [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton#top|talk]]) 22:36, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
::I did read it, and the section before it states "Consensus isn't needed if a change is not controversial", which seems to apply here.
::And since I already had several straightforward edit suggestions adopted by EC editors, without there being a prior discussion at the Talk page, I was wondering why you decided to reject this particular edit suggestion. [[User:Zlmark|Zlmark]] ([[User talk:Zlmark|talk]]) 04:32, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
:::And just to clarify - all three names are already mentioned in the article in the dedicated section, so there is a consensus that their names should be included in the article.
:::The only change I suggested is to list their names in the opening section, similarly to the names of the scholars that support the characterization. [[User:Zlmark|Zlmark]] ([[User talk:Zlmark|talk]]) 04:55, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
::::{{tq|which seems to apply here|q=yes}} It doesn't apply when you read the whole thing: "Uncontroversial changes don't require sourcing, such as correcting typographical errors or disambiguating links".
::::You also appear to have missed this important piece of information: "uncontroversial improvements (correcting typos, grammar, or reference formatting; improving the reliability or efficiency of template code) or are already supported by a consensus of editors, usually on the protected page's talk page."
::::In other words, your edit request doesn't qualify as an "uncontroversial improvement". [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton#top|talk]]) 13:15, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
:::::I did see that part, but the previous piece I quoted seemed to imply a broader definition of what is considered "uncontroversial" edit.
:::::So, just to make sure I understand correctly - does the "uncontroversial" label only apply to minor typos/grammatical corrections, or edits based on consensus previously reached in the "Talk" discussions,  in your view?
:::::I'm asking because, as I said earlier, some of my earlier suggestions that didn't fit this narrow definition, but were uncontroversial in a broader sense, were adopted by other EC editors. [[User:Zlmark|Zlmark]] ([[User talk:Zlmark|talk]]) 13:52, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
