Hello, Voidxor. BURDEN is a bit much for the level of stock indexes that are published in tens of thousands of media every day. Yes, cn would be appropriate, but it's borderline [[WP:PEDANTRY]] to edit war claiming BURDEN. This content has been in the article for many years and no other editor has challenged it. As such it has a strong degree of consensus, and a citation-needed template would be sufficient. Or, of course, you could simply provide a citation. Please do the right thing.[[User:SPECIFICO |<b style="color: #0011FF;"> SPECIFICO</b>]][[User_talk:SPECIFICO | ''talk'']] 21:57, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

: It doesn't matter what it is; it needs a reference. That's [[WP:V]]—a core policy of ours. It already had a CN tag on it, did you not bother to look at that? I'm not edit warring. I reverted once; the limit is [[WP:3RR|three times in 24 hours]]. Also, I reverted because I was following a policy that you weren't. Did you even read BURDEN? It's on you to add a citation, if you are so apt to believe that silly claim. Even if it's true, and even if you can cite it, I think it twists the facts and subtracts from the article. How do you not get that? "Do the right thing"? Shove off. I'm not in the mood for this kind of entrenched "we don't need no stinkin' citations" crap today. You were twisting facts on the article and now you're twisting facts on my talk page. — <kbd>[[User:voidxor|<span style="color: blue">void</span>]][[User talk:voidxor|<span style="color: black">xor</span>]]</kbd> 22:09, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
::Disappointing to see an experienced editor resort to rude personal disparagement, etc. Your interpretation of [[WP:V]] is incorrect, which is also unusual for a user of your long experience.[[User:SPECIFICO |<b style="color: #0011FF;"> SPECIFICO</b>]][[User_talk:SPECIFICO | ''talk'']] 22:46, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
::: Then don't post manipulative messages (e.g. "please do the right thing") on editors' talk pages demanding that they ignore policy and do your bidding. I cited the relevant policy before you came here; you ignored that and then cited an essay (not a policy), arguing the opposite. It even says, "Note that this essay should never be cited in a dispute about whether or not a certain fact is true or not and should not be considered a replacement for the core content policies." — <kbd>[[User:voidxor|<span style="color: blue">void</span>]][[User talk:voidxor|<span style="color: black">xor</span>]]</kbd> 20:28, 30 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, am Alfred I wanted to write a biography how can I edit one? --[[User:Ogwangobonyo|Ogwangobonyo]] ([[User talk:Ogwangobonyo|talk]]) 17:59, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

: {{Reply to|Ogwangobonyo}} Hello, Alfred, and welcome to Wikipedia! To clarify, are you wanting to edit a biography that already exists on Wikipedia, or create a new one? New ones can be started as a [[Wikipedia:Drafts|draft]] first, and later submitted for inclusion in the encyclopedia, but the subject must be [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|notable enough]] to warrant his or her own article. Writing one about yourself is almost certainly not appropriate. — <kbd>[[User:voidxor|<span style="color: blue">void</span>]][[User talk:voidxor|<span style="color: black">xor</span>]]</kbd> 18:26, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi! I had already learned how to perform partial reversions, and indeed quite some time ago, but thank you for showing me that there's a pithy essay on the subject. I can see from it that I should have indicated more clearly that I didn't consider the other parts of your edit to be worth preserving either. Sorry! <span style="border:1px solid midnightblue; padding:0 2px">[[User:XAM2175|<span style="color:midnightblue">XAM2175</span>]]</span>&nbsp;[[User talk:XAM2175|<sup><i style="color:darkslategrey">(T)</i></sup>]] 17:40, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

: That's alright, thanks. I just like us editors to converge on compromise solutions a little more quickly. Sorry if I was snarky. — <kbd>[[User:voidxor|<span style="color: blue">void</span>]][[User talk:voidxor|<span style="color: black">xor</span>]]</kbd> 19:19, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

Revision as of 02:30, 8 August 2023

I have tried for over 20 minutes to edit a wikipedia about myself Richard Greene ( Politician) which contains misinformation or information out of date.I don't seem to be allowed to do this.Why?Richard Greene --Rnoelgreene (talk) 16:08, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Rnoelgreene: Could you describe where you're getting stuck in more detail? Some articles are protected from editing, but Richard Greene (politician) is not. I see that you successfully created an account (though you technically don't need one to edit most articles) and were able to edit my user page here. So, it should be as simple as clicking the Edit button at the top of the article, making changes, and then saving changes. Since this is an article about yourself, please be sure to only remove or correct misinformation, per our conflict-of-interest policy. You can also request that somebody else make the necessary changes at the article's associated talk page, Talk:Richard Greene (politician). Either way, you'll want to declare that you are Richard Greene. — voidxor 16:34, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
