A fact from Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 April 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Overall: Less than 20 noms so only 1 qpq needed. Earwig's showing a rather high overlap for some of the sources, but most of that is the bill's title, quotes, or people's names, so no concerns about plagiarism. AryKun (talk) 11:29, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Changes to status quo
Neutrality, please explain your drastic changes first before pushing them into the article. Thank you. CurryCity (talk) 21:58, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As I explained in the edit summaries, your edits have massively removed well-sourced material and inserted content not directly supported by the cited source. Your seemingly random removals of text have resulted in quotes not supported by the citation used. Not cool. Neutralitytalk 22:01, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As I have explained in my edit summary, my concern is that you are using sources that predate coverage of this article's subject. This risks introducing content forks, original research, outdated and unbalanced information. I have summarised the background using only sources that are more recent and relevant to this PAFACA. CurryCity (talk) 22:08, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This makes no sense whatsoever. This is an encyclopedia. Our policies aren't buzzwords to be invoked without explanation. Neutralitytalk 22:21, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Using outdated sources that do not mention an article's subject would allow anyone to add old information of their choosing to a new topic regardless of balance and due weight. CurryCity (talk) 22:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Which "sources" are "outdated" or "don't mention the article's subject"? What's "old information"? I have no clue what you are going on about. Is this some sort of strange dilatory tactic? Neutralitytalk 23:01, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Individual concerns
List some of the other concerns you have because it is not easy to tell from edit summaries. CurryCity (talk) 22:12, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
First two sentences under "National security concerns": after your random removals, there are two quotes that do not appear in the cited source. Under "Response": you shoved in loaded, flagrantly POV language ("criminalisation of pro-Palestinian voices on social media, where TikTok has been used to expose and condemn Israel's atrocities") that is not supported by the cited source. If you edit, you need to have a firm grasp of the English language, and a firm grasp of Wikipedia policies, including the really basic stuff: everything needs to be directly supported by a cited source and we follow the neutral point of view. Neutralitytalk 22:21, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have asked you politely to list the sentences and am asking you again to do so in a way that is easier to review. CurryCity (talk) 22:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"criminalisation of pro-Palestinian voices on social media, where TikTok has been used to expose and condemn Israel's atrocities"[1] What are your concerns and suggestion?
References
^"US pro-Israel Jewish group backs ban on 'antisemitic' TikTok". The New Arab. 13 March 2024. Critics say supporters of Israel are weaponising antisemitism to defend Israel's war on Gaza and the criminalisation of pro-Palestinian voices, including on social media. TikTok has been an important tool for activists and users to expose the genocide in Gaza and condemn Israel's atrocities.
OK, to be clear: you're admitting that the prior text, which you shoved into the article at least twice, was not supported by the cited source? And then, once called out on it, you're introducing a new source to try to post hoc support it? And, for the record: the new source you're offering is low-quality, it is undue weight, and it still doesn't support the assertion made (we can't take a "critics say..." statement and then use it for a statement in wikivoice). This is really painfully obvious stuff. And, I'm not going to play whac-a-mole, statement-by-statement, like this. Just stop and familiarize yourself with core Wiki policies.
