Zachary Taylor: I have requested feedback

TheGracefulSlick recently accepted an edit to remove two sentences from Zachary Taylor. There is a section on that article's talk page where I requested feedback on the potential of that edit to be WP:GOOD. Please address the issue in section "168 years" before reverting the edit again, thanks. - Sleyece 17:43:02, July 3, 2017 (UTC)

The Good Article Nominations Page Needs Your Help!

Good Articles: Music needs the help of willing reviewers!

Hi there. You nominated an article for evaluation against the good article criteria some time ago, but I noticed you have yet to review an article yourself. Although it's not mandatory, it would be helpful if every user who creates a nomination also reviewed at least one other article, as this would help clear the massive backlog. Reviewing someone else's article can also help you in the long run: every article reviewed brings yours one position closer to the top of the nominations list! If you worked on the article you nominated, chances are you're already familiar with the six good article criteria. It really isn't hard to review, and may take an experienced editor only a few hours to complete. If you have the time and would like to help, please click here, take a moment to figure out which article you'd like to review, then click on its (start review) button. Thank you for reading, and if you need assistance with your review at any point, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page and I'll respond to you as soon as I can. Homeostasis07 (talk)

Lest We Forget: The Best Of

Hi, @TheGracefulSlick: you might remember me from our collaboration on the "Look at Your Game, Girl" article. I recently nominated the (short) article for Marilyn Manson's album Lest We Forget: The Best Of for GA and I was wondering if you might like to review it. Let me know --MagicatthemovieS

You broke 1rr with the quds day edit

You have to wait 24 hours from the last revertShrike (talk) 17:27, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

Unless I am missing something Shrike, my first edit was at 14:40, 12 June and my second was at 14:46, 13 June -- six minutes over 24 hours. Regardless, if there was any doubt, it is now well over 24 hours. Are you really going to make me self-revert to cancel the alleged 1RR? I am just going to revert it seconds afterwards. Perhaps you could, you know, help build consensus at the talk page?TheGracefulSlick (talk) 17:44, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

We will ask the admins please see this AE[1]--Shrike (talk) 19:04, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

As a sign of goodwill I have withdrawn my request please be very careful in the future.--Shrike (talk) 20:11, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

Moody Blues songs

I've voted to delete "The Sunset", but that leaves us with three songs from Days of Future Passed that still have unsourced articles and probably shouldn't be on Wikipedia: "The Day Begins", "(Evening) Time to Get Away" and "Twilight Time". As there are no issues with disambiguations, unlike "The Sunset", should the three tracks be boldly redirected to the parent album, rather than just bundled together for AfD?

Edit warring without discussion

Re this edit, perhaps you missed my discussion on the talk page here - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Abu_Ghosh&action=history, which is not surprising, since you yourself are conspicuously missing from any talk page discussion. This kind of behavior is frowned upon. Attack Ramon (talk) 23:39, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Nope did not miss a thing. Two editors disagree with you and one agrees. Thus, the content is disputed yet you continue to reinsert the material, forgetting that onus requires you to seek consensus.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 00:14, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

That material has been in the article for years, and thus has consensus. If you want to show that the new consensus is to remove it, the onus on you, That would require that you actually participate in the Talk page discussion, something you have yet to do. This kind of behavior is frowned upon. Attack Ramon (talk)

Yes, I read you thought it was frowned upon the first time.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 00:54, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

Did you also read about how you misunderstand the consensus process ? Attack Ramon (talk) 01:37, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

A couple funny little things about silence and consensus. It is the weakest form of consensus and you can only assume you have it until someone comes along and changes the page by editing or reverting. Anything else you need answered?TheGracefulSlick (talk) 01:53, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

Perhaps you missed that little notice at the top of that page: "This page is not one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community." Conversely, WP:CONSENSUS, which is policy, clearly states "Any edit that is not disputed or reverted by another editor can be assumed to have consensus. " and "In discussions of proposals to add, modify or remove material in articles, a lack of consensus commonly results in retaining the version of the article as it was prior to the proposal or bold edit 01:59, 16 June 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Attack Ramon (talk • contribs)

A collection of your usernames has pointed to the language in WP:ONUS, a part of WP:V. There clearly is no longer a consensus, and coming here to threaten one of the three editors who now challenge that instead of establishing a consensus on the talk page is cute but not much more than that. nableezy - 05:33, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
