Mandated removal of Category:antisemitism[edit]

Per Wikipedia policy as it exists on Category:antisemitism, which was recently reviewed by an RFC, "[This category] must not include articles about individuals, groups or media that are allegedly antisemitic". Books are a form of media. Everything on Wikipedia is just an allegation (see: WP:TRUTH). If editors here oppose the current consensus, please take it up at Category talk:Antisemitism per WP:CCC. I otherwise have a lot of de-categorization work to do, but will eventually circle back around. -- Kendrick7^talk 01:33, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That's not policy as I understand it, simply an instruction for what should or should not be included in the category. Regardless, the wording is "This category is for issues relating to antisemitism" and that clearly beyond question covers this book. The RFC concerned the use of "allegedly" in the second sentence: there is no suggestion that this article alleges anything. The RFC was closed as 'no consensus, so quoting it as justification is spurious. Emeraude (talk) 10:46, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Again, per WP:TRUTH via WP:V everything on Wikipedia is just an allegation. Nothing is "beyond question" — we just report on what our sources have to say. Furthermore, I was the editor who filed the RFC, so please don't tell me what I was concerned about. The RFC was closed without a consensus to remove the rule which has existed on this topic for years on end. I am but a humbled Wikipedian carrying it out. Again, feel free to fly your flag at Category talk:Antisemitism per WP:CCC. Complaining here changes nothing. -- Kendrick7^talk 04:00, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
