Convicted Child Molesters*
- Username

- Page you were editing
- Richard R. Lavigne
- Description
- I think we should establish that an individual is a convicted pedophile when they are a convicted pedophile prior to any additional information about them. When attempting to edit the page to include the text, Richard Lavigne is "a convicted pedophile and" a former priest... it advised me that my edits were not allowed. Should we use a different word to establish convicted pedophiles as convicted pedophiles? They should be remembered as pedophiles before any of their "works" or accomplishments" are mentioned. Does Wikipedia prefer otherwise?.
- Date and time
- 8:00, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Comments
- For one, I think ‘convicted child molester’ works better. Pædophilia is a mental illness, child molestation is a crime. We shouldn’t say ‘convicted pædophile’ any more than we should say ‘convicted kleptomaniac’. שונרא (talk) 21:13, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- The claim that he's a convicted child molester (or whatever preferred wording) needs a source (it isn't currently sourced in the article). Provided you can point me to one, I see no reason I can't do this. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 00:49, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
- You are correct. Thank you. I just didn't like that when I went to look him up, it said he was an 'American Priest' or 'Former Catholic Priest'. The problem with these guys is that since the statute of limitations is specifically written into the law, they'll never actually be convicted in most cases. We just can't rely on the Justice System at this point to "Allow" us to use the word convicted and need to ensure that they remain in the history books as child molesters even if they were never held accountable for it by the Justice System in their lifetime. —ZakAttak999 19:34, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

What say ye?’ The system must have noticed that I added a racial slur and assumed I was being racist myself.

@שונרא:Why did you try to add this to the talk page? Remember that the talk page is only for discussing how to improve the article, not for general discussion of the topic, see WP:NOTFORUM. Tornado chaser (talk) 21:51, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Tornado chaser and שונרא: He was asking about whether to add it, so he was using the talk page correctly. That aside, unless you can find sources documenting this, it is definitely not worthy of inclusion. If you can, maybe: that would depend on the quality of the sourcing. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 00:53, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

- Description
- Received a warning for self-published source, probably because of: Fox, E. T. (2014). Pirates in Their Own Words. Raleigh NC: Lulu.com. ISBN 9781291943993. E. T. Fox is a recognized expert in the field of history of Golden Age pirates. The work is a compilation of court records, depositions, and trial transcripts unavailable in print elsewhere; Fox's commentary is nearly as valuable as the documents themselves. Even though it's published by Lulu, can that ISBN be put on a whitelist so it doesn't get flagged by the self-publish / vanity bot?

- This seems to be entirely not worth the trouble. Can you just ignore it? It is a warning filter for a reason. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 20:19, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
- I guess this is an exceptional case where the reasons for inclusion might be somewhat-valid.But, the filter seems to be working as intended and then, it's a warning filter for a reason.Other ideas? ∯WBGconverse 06:01, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
- Correct WBG, the purpose of the filter is simply to tag additions from known Self-Publishing houses, as those are often but not always Vanity items. Such sources are not completely prohibited, as WP:SPS guides. The test it offers is whether the author has been published by third party sources in addition to the Lulu publication. A quick scan shows Fox mentioned in publications by others as an expert, but in a sort of trickle-down, I'm not qualified to determine whether those sources are reliable. I'd say for now you're probably fine, but just be prepared to support Fox's recognition as an expert if challenged on it. CrowCaw 20:31, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

I was trying to add a source to the deep fakes article, for it's uses in visual effects industry beyond the liberal slant that it's gotten on it's page. I think it has a great potential in film, and I think that my opinion could help the article grow a bit more and offer more content to any user who is curious about the topic. I have been involved slightly in the creation of visual effects tests for the software that are not related to counterfeiting, porn, satire, or propaganda. I feel that the entire page is a criticism of the potential of that technology, before you get to the section about criticisms of the software. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/deepfake-tech-eyed-by-hollywood-vfx-studios-1087075

The link for Jeff Epstein in the article went to the wrong Jeffrey Epstein, and the article it went to is for the registered sex offender and alleged pedophile, so it's pretty libelous.
