Re: Multiple Chemical Sensitivity

Dear Roxy, I find the page on MCS to be inadequately referenced and several of the facts innaccurate and poorly cited. I am trying to constructively update this article with proper citation to show a more complete and up to date picture on the current understanding of MCS. I will not remove any citations, I only plan to add more knowledge to this article and properly cite where necessary.

Thank you,

Silliestchris, PhD candidate, Canada.

Bias on MCS page

Roxy the dog, I am concerned with the partisan depiction of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity in Wikipedia. MCS is a highly controversial illness, with researchers hotly divided. However, the views of only one side of the debate appear to control the narrative on Wikipedia's page. For example, when one searches Toxicant Induced Loss of Tolerance (TILT) in Wikipedia, you are automatically redirected to the MCS page. However, there is no mention of TILT anywhere on the MCS page. I discussed this on the talk page and everyone who participated in the discussion agreed that TILT should be added beside IEI. This was immediately undone by another user who had not participated in the discussion. This is just one example, overall the entire MCS page is full of unreferenced and improperly referenced opinion statements, some of which are completely false (eg, "unrecognized").

So I was hoping to initiate a dialogue with you. What is going on here? I thought Wikipedia was supposed to present a neutral point of view.Silliestchris (talk) 19:15, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to the edit war

Since you joined the edit war on Andrographis paniculata, I'm gonna have to rope you in as well:

Woof Woof

When we going horse riding? Don't forget the milk!!! (lol) Hope you are having a great week so far and everything is going your way. We just have to laugh a little on the occasion. Life it too short and I think it takes coming very close to it ending to see it sometimes. --ARoseWolf 19:06, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My drugs have been doubling weekly, and today, they told me that neutrophils are far too low, so I'm on hold for a week. No problem though. -Roxy the grumpy dog. wooF 19:16, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh damnnit. Sorry to hear that. You'll be fine. Sending you virtual hugs and lots-o-love. My neutrophils have been holding steady. I've been back once now for testing and my red and white blood cells seem to be maturing but they cautioned me that relapses happen often and they rarely get all of the cancer with chemo so who knows. I'm just living life on the edge, haha!! I like it dangerous apparently. --ARoseWolf 19:24, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@ARoseWolf: I hoped you don't mind me adding you 2 to WP:Editors who may be confused as I feel like I may confuse you 2 since your names both start with Ro and you're both some sort of canine (of course, I am as well but my name is different enough that I don't think I would be confused with anyone but my inactive alt). ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#0001 15:00, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Blaze The Wolf, being mistaken for Roxy? I am so flattered! Roxy is an amazing editor and a wonderful person. Strong and courageous. Not to mention Roxy is such a badass name. lol --ARoseWolf 15:10, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@ARoseWolf: I agree. My brain sometimes thinks you are Roxy just because of your similarity of your names. ALthough it might be because my brain has been very tired lately. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#0001 15:15, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Blaze The Wolf, my brain goes on a complete vacation at times so don't feel bad. Hopefully I have good enough friends here to know when that happens it is just my insanity coming full circle and can talk me down. lol --ARoseWolf 15:19, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@ARoseWolf: Well since Roxy's name is in a separate section I doubt they'll object to being on there twice. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#0001 15:53, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Newcastle

Thanks for reverting the POV pushing on the Newcastle article. The same editor came back twice again to reinstate the same/similar content and I reverted twice but won't again due to 3RR. 10mmsocket (talk) 12:08, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Skeptical?

Hey! I noticed that in your signature it now says that you're skeptical. Why are you skeptical? Just curious! ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#0001 18:19, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Because I use the correct english spelling. -Roxy the sceptical dog. wooF 18:38, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ah. I didn't actually know there were 2 different ways to spell it (I've always spelled it with a k (skeptical) but I never knew it was still correct to spell it with a c (sceptical) which google says is wrong). ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#0001 16:03, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Soil Association - Page updates

Hi Roxy the dog. Thanks for your notes on my edits for this page Soil Association. I am new to Wikipedia editing but keen to learn so that I can make acceptable edits to this page. As I mentioned, I am an employee of the organisation which would naturally raise suspicions about my impartiality. Understanding the purpose of Wikipedia articles I want to make sure that we can update the page, in an unbiased and factually correct way (with sources). Are you able to help? Thanks in advance. DanMor0806 (talk) 10:33, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have posted a welcome message and further comments at your Talk page. -Roxy the sceptical dog. wooF 20:16, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop removing U.S.-related categories. The United States is sourced in the infobox. The source is Filmportal.de, and it's placed right beside the words "United States" in the infobox. AllMovie lists the United States as well. snapsnap (talk) 19:52, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have responded at the article Talk page, in the section on this very subject. Consensus seems to be against you. -Roxy the sceptical dog. wooF 20:10, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

changes in article david gorski

Hello, This is regarding the changes i made to the article David Gorski. I did not vandalise the page as you accused me of doing and i did not do any disruptive editing. I only removed a redundant source that didn't exactly support the topic. So please consider restoring my version.

Thank you! 2409:4042:E13:9913:E8DD:CF66:74A7:6157 (talk) 18:37, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Quentin Crisp

I would like to know how Quentin Crisp's final memoir is an unreliable source? Since the piece cited (chapter one) is very clear about Crisp being a woman I can only assume that this is your issue with it, and therefore my edits. - Lacybi — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lacybi (talkcontribs) 18:41, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have responded at the article Talk page. Please learn to sign your posts on Talk pages with four tildes, like this ~~~~ thanks. -Roxy the sceptical dog. wooF 16:22, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

David Gorski and Desisters

Why did you remove my section on David Gorski's talk page talking about desisters, and his unwillingness to even acknowledge their existence? And then you label me a troll. Look, this is a serious issue. We're not even allowed to call pregnant women WOMEN any longer. You need to stop silencing the voices of those who don't share your worldview. This kind of nonsense (read a far more mean word than nonsense) is the reason I not longer donate to wikipedia. I won't donate to an organization that silences anyone to the right of Bernie.
