Please format footnotes correctly

Please see the help page on footnotes so that you can format citations correctly & not run afoul of the English Wikipedia content guideline on external links. Peaceray (talk) 21:18, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

Notice

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

By my count, you have reinstated your preferred version of President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief nine times since the initial edits (see diffs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9). Although you have not violated 3RR, as your reverts have been spread out over a period of several months, this level of edit warring (after four other users have objected to your proposed revision) is unacceptable on Wikipedia, which is a collaborative project based on consensus. Please adhere to WP:BRD and do not continually reinsert this disputed content unless and until consensus is reached. Further reverts will be reported to WP:AN3, which could result in administrative sanctions. Regards,TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 21:50, 8 June 2022 (UTC)

I always use the talk page but you never respond to me. And that first paragraph about the inception of PEPFAR is clearly original research that is in unprovable. The fact you believe an admitted war criminal’s self serving recollection of how he thought up the program is over the top absurd. That paragraph must go and the fact you believe it should stand means you have no business being an editor! Clam chowdah (talk) 22:27, 8 June 2022 (UTC)

And with respect to the 2008 Democratic primary everyone agrees that caucuses are undemocratic now but I have chosen not to push that issue in that article. So the notion I’m some rogue editor is absurd especially when my changes to that article years ago is still in the article. And with respect to PEPFAR I took your advice and formatted properly and changed my language…but you insist facts widely known in the public health community are original research which is also absurd.

From the UN—

They did something more: they brought together heads of state and people living with HIV and all the different partners and actors that had been running and supporting the AIDS response until then. That is the biggest difference about this movement: it has ensured that every sector and every layer of society is engaged and accountable.

Immediately people thought about the barriers, about what is keeping people from staying alive. One of the great breakthroughs was the belief that nothing was impossible and no one was out of reach. That included reaching people in remote villages and people living in the shadows, but it also meant not being afraid of going after pharmaceutical companies and unfair trade practices. Take the price of first-line treatment: US$ 10 000 a year in 2000. When you adjust for inflation, a one-year supply would cost about US$ 14 000 in todayÕs terms. The pharmaceutical industry had a tight grip on government policies and an even tighter grip on prices. And donÕt forget this was also the time when world leaders were negotiating protection of intellectual property rights at the WTO [World Trade Organization]. Any concession could open the floodgates for exceptions. US$ 100 So when Brazil and Thailand started manufacturing generic antiretroviral medicines they did something very smart: they revealed that the pills were relatively low-cost to make. This took the wind out of industry claims, and it opened the door for UNAIDS to start negotiations with companies to bring down prices No one wanted to be in the room: business leaders didnÕt want to be accused of price fixing and activists thought we were crazy to even convene such a meeting. It was a big first stepÑa step that led to differ- ential pricing based on ability to pay. Then came another breakthrough: manufacturers started making generics in India. In 2001, Cipla dropped antiretroviral medicine prices from US$ 800 to US$ 350. I remember clearly when former [United States] President Clinton announced that, after leaving office, he would make it his mission to work with everyone to bring down prices even moreÑand today, a year of HIV treatment is under US$ 100.

If you change my edits that quote the UN narrative to fit the western narrative I will be calling you out as a RACIST. So you better read my footnotes before you edit because I’m already beginning to think you are a racist. Clam chowdah (talk) 03:55, 9 June 2022 (UTC)

Here is the link to the UN that does mention PEPFAR and it is very clear UN acted FIRST!!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as at Wikipedia:No original research/Noticeboard, (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Just as is the case with your comments on this page. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:56, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, let me test it. Clam chowdah (talk) 00:40, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

ANI Notice 6/23/22

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Slywriter (talk) 19:45, 13 June 2022 (UTC)"}}

Furthermore, "Those 3 racist nut jobs from the notice board" is not acceptable. Civility is a requirement. --Golbez (talk) 19:58, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

They aren’t being civil—they followed the lead of a JFK conspiracy theorist and I was warning another editor to not get involved because they are unhinged. Clam chowdah (talk) 20:04, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was warning a new editor to avoid this issue altogether because these 3 experienced editors are on the warpath against me, I didn’t want an innocent bystander to get blackballed like these 3 bullies are attempting to do to me. So I believe the new editor is reasonable and offered to work in the Talk section to come to a consensus.Clam chowdah (talk) 20:12, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
