CSIS/ITAC warning
Hey.
Looks like we were both drafting content on that CBC News report at the same time at anti-gender movement, as I just got an edit conflict trying to add some similar content from elsewhere in the same cited source. The content I was adding was:
- In February 2024, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service issued a warning that violent extremists within the anti-gender movement could be inspired by the June 2023 stabbing attack at the University of Waterloo to "carry out their own extreme violence against the 2SLGBTQI+ community or against other targets they view as representing the gender ideology 'agenda'".[1]
Do you think it's worth adding a sentence quoting the CSIS statement as well? Sideswipe9th (talk) 03:25, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Sideswipe9th I think your wording is better, and I don't really have an opinion which quote is more important to include. (t · c) buidhe 04:35, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- How do you feel about both of the comments? Perhaps something like:
- In February 2024, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service issued a warning that violent extremists within the anti-gender movement could be inspired by the June 2023 stabbing attack at the University of Waterloo to "carry out their own extreme violence against the 2SLGBTQI+ community or against other targets they view as representing the gender ideology 'agenda'". A spokesperson for CSIS said that although violent rhetoric does not always lead to violence, "the ecosystem of violent rhetoric within the anti-gender movement, compounded with other extreme worldviews, can lead to serious violence."
- Cited to the same source of course. Maybe it's a bit quote farmy though, two lengthy quotations in quick succession. I'm not sure how we could summarise that though, given the serious nature of the warning and comments. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:53, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Mass message re:categorization
Hi Buidhe,
I'm noticing that the Wikimedia Mass Message bot recently sent out a message to a 111 article talk pages at your direction. The bot was used to explain your bold edits across 160 articles that was marked as minor. I understand the intent here, but these very broad edits removed the category from Forced labor in Nazi concentration camps and Extermination through labour. Am I misreading the indictment, or was the slave labor incorporated into the fact pattern as a part of Count 4 (Crimes against Humanity)? — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:30, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Red-tailed hawk
- "Crimes against humanity" is not mentioned in either of the articles. All categorization needs to be verifiable and supported by sourced text.
- All categorization needs to be a wp:defining aspect of the topic. I doubt that the legal classification used at the Nuremberg trials is defining for either of these topics; as someone who researched and contributed to both, the sources don't focus on the legal aspects.
- Very few of these articles meet #1 let alone #2. (t · c) buidhe 04:09, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Elinruby (talk) 09:52, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
DYK for Fighting Vanguard
On 3 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fighting Vanguard, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Fighting Vanguard waged a guerrilla war against the Syrian government in the 1970s and 1980s? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fighting Vanguard. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Fighting Vanguard), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Your reversion of my edit to "Fighting Vanguard"
Greetings and felicitations. The change to the en dash was per MOS:RANGE, and the "language=enm" was a mistake I made when I didn't move the "m" with the rest of the book's title—thus the "Conundru". Most of the rest of the edit was to aid editing in the future, in part by putting reference fields in the order in which they are displayed. —DocWatson42 (talk) 08:17, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Io
Buidhe, would this page need an featured article review? It has 12 citation needed tags. 750h+ (talk) 16:40, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, 750h+, it does look like some work is needed to bring it in compliance with the FA criteria. If you have any concerns you should post on the talk page, and add a listing to WP:FARGIVEN so that FAR regulars know of the issues—although it's not likely to be a priority while there are many FA-rated articles in worse shape. FYI to igordebraga who recently nominated this article as part of a good topic. (t · c) buidhe 16:52, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Denaturalization
The reason I considered the statement controversial is that it makes multiple nontrivial technical and legal assumptions, which I had been reading about for non-editing-related reasons quite recently. For starters, we have here a clearly pro-Palestine source…implying that the State of Israel is the sole legal successor to the Mandate? As far as I know no one, not even the Israeli government itself, claims that.
I’m not at all averse to a mention of the displacement of Palestinians, but I don’t believe the original version as originally sourced was appropriate for wikivoice. My hunch based on past experience was that when editors openly cite POV academics in any area, it tends to be because they can’t find anything better.
So if you can find better sources for the original wording of the statement, be my guest. If you have a rewording, great. Either way, I’d rather deal with this and move on as it was a drive-by edit and the last thing I want is to be dragged into a PIA furball.
Cheers, RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 05:21, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- What I'm missing here is 1) any evidence that the statement is disputed 2) any indication that the source's reliability is in question (technically all sources have "bias", so perceived bias is not necessarily a reason to disregard what the source says). Just removing reliably sourced content based on your POV and vague assertions of controversy isn't the way to go, imv. (t · c) buidhe 08:18, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hmm well…
- 1. I just did a fairly extensive (albeit by no means exhaustive) series of searches on engines, Google Scholar, and elsewhere. I came up with relatively few results, and the only one that discussed the matter at any length was this one:
- [1]
- A nonprofit org interviewing the same academic who wrote the book being cited.
- So I’d say there isn’t enough basis in reliable sources. Especially as the claims being made in the cited work make a lot of contentious and unstated assumptions about the ramifications of the Mandatory period, some of which, if articulated, would not themselves find support in RS.
- (Oh, and by the way, the top result for “denaturalization of palestinians” was about the contemporaneous expulsion Iraqi Jews. Which, indicates that the field of results was sparse enough that the engine had to split the input up into keywords even if those keywords were not linked in the text).
- So without clearer sources, this seems to be just yet another case a case of some editor inserting contentious and insufficiently sourced examples in an article that doesn’t actually need them. We get a lot of that in Russia–Ukraine.
- 2. Have you looked at the source in question? It’s a pretty standard specimen of academic methodology being directed towards the propagation of a particular cause, i.e. highbrow POV.
- Cheers, RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 12:49, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- There are plenty of other sources that discuss the denaturalization and/or statelessness of Palestinians, this for instance. I have yet to see any evidence that the fact is disputed or that the source is not reliable for the content it supports. (t · c) buidhe 19:13, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but denaturalization is not the same thing as statelessness. Denaturalization is an act and statelessness is a condition. Let me go read what you linked. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 19:58, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- It seems like the statement is sufficiently novel that explicit contradictions of it are not easily searchable.
- Israeli citizenship law#Post-1948 transition and History of Palestinian nationality#Post-Mandate and the references cited there provide good starting points and, in contradicting the statement contested here, presumably set forth the mainstream position.
- The article you linked was interesting. The guy is clearly well versed in his field and writes quite well. I actually read a bunch of his abstracts and even skimmed a couple of his other papers, out of sheer interest. Some of his academic positions are a little radical, but I found it engaging; my main critique is that he seems blithely unaware of potential countervailing points and opposing arguments. Anyway, cursory searches also bring up that he has extensive involvement as a consultant to multiple Palestinian organizations.
- (By the way…you see the problem? Unlike many other CT areas, virtually all academics have more or less taken a side. I haven't participated in very many ARBPIA discussions, mostly moves, but I imagine there is quite a lot of source bashing all around. Or at least I hope they do that instead of getting all ugly.)
- In any event, the issue is that the article, narrowly speaking, is about a specific phenomenon, one that, apart from the previously discussed sources, doesn't seem to be directly related to the well-documented displacement of Palestinians. I personally am mainly annoyed at the fact that someone (didn't check blame) dragged contentious statements into an "examples" section yet again (I'm currently dealing elsewhere with an inexperienced CT cowboy, as I was barely a year ago, who had restored something analogous elsewhere in flagrant contravention of BLP rules). Among other things, this is a simply atrocious practice because it not only entails, but further encourages, the leakage of contentious topics into virgin territory. Deplorable, no?
- Anyway, if you aren't convinced, I have way better things to do than start a formal DR process, naturally. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- You're welcome to your opinion, but I see no policy based reason to treat this case any differently than others mentioned in the article, such as those involving the breakup of the Soviet union and Yugoslavia. (t · c) buidhe 01:19, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Perhaps, but denaturalization is not the same thing as statelessness. Denaturalization is an act and statelessness is a condition. Let me go read what you linked. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 19:58, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- There are plenty of other sources that discuss the denaturalization and/or statelessness of Palestinians, this for instance. I have yet to see any evidence that the fact is disputed or that the source is not reliable for the content it supports. (t · c) buidhe 19:13, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
