  • 15:2415:24, 15 May 2020 diff hist +11 Jack BuckbyLet's stick to the facts here. The previous editor may know Jack as a former far right activist, but having published three books, he is an author. Wikipedia presents the facts, this is a fact. Tag: Visual edit

  • 16:0616:06, 24 January 2020 diff hist −6 Jack BuckbyI note that the anonymous user has returned after being blocked from editing for vandalism. Their latest addition was unsourced, but the inclusion of Buckby being a far-right activist is not unfitting, despite the fact it is already very heavily reported throughout this piece. The addition has been edited to read better and reflect his current activity and previous work. Tag: Visual edit

  • 23:0023:00, 13 November 2019 diff hist +326 Jack BuckbySecondary source, including Buckby's own book for Post Hill Press, confirm that he is indeed a vocal critic of neo-fascism and far-right violence. Attempting to suggest otherwise on this page is dangerous and irresponsible revisionism and probably motivated by David Gerard's connection to Rational Wiki - a page that smears Buckby in several very serious ways. Portraying Buckby as a supporter is incorrect and misleading given his most recent writing and work. Tag: Visual edit
  • 22:5622:56, 13 November 2019 diff hist +274 Jack BuckbyVarious non-primary sources publish Buckby's work and list him as a Research Associate at the Frontier Centre (cited). Not to mention, Frontier Centre themselves call him a research associate. David Gerard is engaged in a vandalism campaign. This page is full of secondary sources and even more reliable primary sources, which suit Wikipedia's guidelines as being understood by any reasonable person without requiring additional information or context.

  • 14:1314:13, 13 October 2019 diff hist −31 Jack BuckbyPersonal opinions are leaking into previous editor's edits. All this editor has done is add 'far right' every noun possible, in objection to Buckby's disavowal of the far right. Markota is not a far-right media contributor. She has not worked for Republican outlets Daily Caller or Rebel for what seems to be almost a year. She did an interview on InfoWars, was not a contributor. Her support for LGBTQ community is well documented too (she often performs at NYC Pride). She is not far right. Tag: Visual edit

  • 19:4419:44, 12 October 2019 diff hist +4 Jack Buckbyneo-fascism is more suited than fascism. Buckby is extremely critical of white supremacists/neo-fascists/anti-semitic activists and, surprisingly, was critical of neo-fascists and neo-nazis even during his time in the BNP. So this is a fair and important thing to include. Tag: Visual edit

  • 19:1519:15, 12 October 2019 diff hist +1 Jack BuckbyMinor grammar point. Let's make sure Buckby's far-right past is present but that personal opinions do not leak into this piece. If he is actively criticising the far right, producing a book about far-right extremism, and has severed ties with far-right groups over their extremism, then this should be documented clearly and fairly. I trust other editors will maintain this standard of fairness and professionalism. Tag: Visual edit
  • 19:1319:13, 12 October 2019 diff hist +415 Jack BuckbyBuckby did not run the official Proud Boys page, but did briefly run a site connected with the group. Its content was not exclusively focused on the group, though it shared the name. His involvement was extremely short-lived, as demonstrated by the lack of coverage and content put out during that time. This editor reached out to Buckby, which prompted an official response via social media, reconfirming what had already been said - Buckby rejected their support of far-right violence. Tag: Visual edit
  • 19:0219:02, 12 October 2019 diff hist −1 Jack BuckbyBuckby's theory specifically references far-left violence, not left-wing activism. Previous editor is vandalising this page at this point, suggesting that evidence Buckby rejects the far right is 'irrelevant'. This editor might be critical of Buckby's work or personally feel he is far right, but the evidence suggests that Buckby has since disavowed the far right in its entirety. Nonetheless, his far right past has not been erased. Tag: Visual edit
  • 18:5418:54, 12 October 2019 diff hist −157 Jack BuckbyPrevious editor wanted to remove Buckby's vocal criticism of the far right and replace it with a reference to his criticism of the left. They are right to include his criticism of the left, therefore I have reinstated it. However, his criticism of the far right cannot and should not be ignored given it is out there for the world to see. Editors should be aware that there is a difference between Buckby's past, and his current beliefs. Tag: Visual edit
  • 18:4918:49, 12 October 2019 diff hist +17 Jack BuckbyPrevious editors seem to want to erase Buckby's vocal opposition to the far right. His history is well documented in this piece in a fair and accurate way - he has previously been involved with the BNP, a far right organisation. This is documented. Since leaving politics, however, Buckby has been vocal about the far right, fascism, and political extremism. His far right past, however, is right here to see. Tag: Visual edit
  • 18:4718:47, 12 October 2019 diff hist −1,062 Jack BuckbyIt is surprising to see editors repeatedly attempting to insert their own political opinions about Buckby and his wife. Buckby's wife, Martina Markota, is a Republican and not far right. Describing her as far right is only as accurate as the media outlet that makes the claim, which is entirely subjective. Markota has never promoted white genocide theories, anti-Semitism, or anything typically associated with the far right, the claim is therefore inaccurate. Tag: Visual edit

  • 19:3119:31, 5 August 2019 diff hist +1 Jack BuckbyPrevious user removed citations of Buckby criticising the far right. The evidence suggests he is in fact a critic of the far right. Personal opinions are not valid sources on Wikipedia. If he criticised the far right in media outlets, his website and social media, then he is a critic of the far right. Tag: Visual edit
