WikiProject Women in Red/The World Contest

Hi. This month The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There is over £3000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. Wikimedia UK is putting up £250 specifically for editors who produce the most quality new women bios for British women, with special consideration given to missing notable biographies from the Oxford Dictionary of Biography and Welsh Dictionary of Biography. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate independently this is also fine, but please add any articles created to the bottom of the main contest page even if not competing. Your participation in the contest and contributing articles on British women from your area or wherever would we much appreciated. Thanks.

I'm back

Have the squabbles on that article died down now, or do you think it might still benefit from some intervention?  DDStretch  (talk) 15:25, 7 November 2018 (UTC)

Well they hit a stalemate. The issue relates to if the F1 interest group can override the convention of self-identification. It seems a characteristic of such groups that they seek conformity and structure (knowing some of the cognitive science which goes with this I can see why) so are not open to compromise. Its festered for a bit as far as I can see. Its worth a look as the issue is likely to come up in other contexts. -----Snowded ^TALK 09:18, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Terrorism in Pakistan

I don't particularly care for the outcome of this dispute, but your recent removal is somewhat aggressive. Religion, or religious zealotry, undeniably plays a role in terrorism within Pakistan, whether it is the cause of terrorism or whether terroristic acts target certain religious adherents. A section on religious opinions in Pakistan would thus be relevant. A small section, as introduced by Karumari, may be inherently unbalanced but since Wikipedia is a work in progress, I don't see that as necessarily problematic since it will be expanded later. Even now-lengthy articles have been started with as little as one sentence. Buddytula (talk) 19:00, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

We have an editor who is dropping that text into multiple articles and is ignoring all advise - there are limits to tolerance here -----Snowded ^TALK 19:01, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

Granted. This editor's additions are problematic for numerous reasons. I certainly hope the editor learns to work collaboratively, but even a broken clock is right twice a day. Buddytula (talk) 19:17, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

Editing while logged out

As pertaining to me, not you, I might add  :) 31.52.166.58 (talk) 20:44, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

The wording allows it but discourage it - and the danger of sock puppetry is high when you engage in controversy -----Snowded ^TALK 21:47, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

Not in my case. And don't forget about WP:AGF. 31.52.166.58 (talk) 21:51, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

Nowt there relates to good faith, read your own references.-----Snowded ^TALK 06:55, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Hey Snowded, I want to resolve the edit war we have with the Violence and Christianity page. What is the reason why you are undoing the changes?
