In regards to my pending edit that you reverted: the quoted NYTimes article does not list race as a differentiating factor. The title of the article ("Mass Shooters Are All Different. Except for One Thing: Most Are Men.") clearly indicates that the article considers gender as a differentiating factor and any other characteristic not to be a predicting factor. I find reference in the Wikipedia article to be misleading by mentioning race since the original NYTimes article does not make a case for race to be an important demographics characteristic. Immediately after this NYTimes reference, there are 2 references (Slate and Associated Press) that directly contradicts the suggestion that "white male" (vs simply "male") is over represented among mass shooters in the United States. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PlinyTheMiddleChild (talk • contribs) 22:40, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for messaging me PlinyTheMiddleChild, the Wikipedia article states that "According to The New York Times", and because of that, does not contain a WP:POV issue. The demographics, as you have pointed out, seems to be different with different sources, I think the section currently balances all viewpoints really well. The article cited does say "Examining past New York Times coverage of mass shootings reveals... the fact that they are most commonly white", and does mention race. There has been a revision by Mudwater that I think may address some of the issues that you pointed out, feel free to message me if you have any additional questions regarding this.

Request for Mentorship

Hello Justiyaya,

I found you in the list from the Wikipedia:Growth Team features/Mentor list which I went through completely and chosen you mostly by your tech affinity. I'm specialized in IT topics and work in favor of civil rights and privacy as you can see as part of my self-introduction on my user page. Now I'm looking for a mentor to have a starting point here in the community. ARoseWolf is sadly not technical and thus I would flood her with IT topics.

Are you available for mentorship? Are you by chance available on IRC?

@GavriilaDmitriev I am available for mentorship, but I'm not available on IRC. I like tech but I know like no programming languages and have trouble troubleshooting basic computer issues. Do you want me find someone who would probably be more familiar with tech and probably better suit your needs? What area of editing would you like to focus on?

Greeting

Hi, Justiyaya. Thanks for the welcome, but I've been editing regularly on Wikipedia for over 15 years!

I choose not to have an account partly for personal and partly for ideological reasons.

If I were to create an account, I would feel impelled to devote even more time – more than I can afford – to thoroughly perusing all Wikipedia's policies and to more editing and admin activities: this is a personal quirk which I've experienced in the past in other hobby contexts. Yes, I'm weird.

I also take the stance that edits should individually stand or fall on their own merits, with no reliance on the editor's 'reputation.' I use a "pseudo-signature" incorporating what was once my home IP (before my ISP went to dynamic IPs) mostly in order to ensure continuity in conversations.

Perhaps soon – when I'm officially retired – I'll rethink my position and open an account, probably under my own name (which, by the way, is Terry Hunt).
