There are numerous contemporaries who were already on record about their lives, including Mattix with her contradictory versions told over the years.

Hi, CV! I wanted to drop you a word of thanks for your work towards getting the Stratford thing under control. Which clearly it isn't yet, but I suppose sooner or later a check-user will get to the SPI, and I'm moderately hopeful that that will lead somewhere. If it doesn't I'll take this to ANI, enough's enough! Thanks for your emails, read and acknowledged, but I don't think a lot's going to be gained by going down that particular rabbit hole. It seems to me that there's a LOT of clean-up needed – crappy articles like Stratford Lyon and Stamford Bull Run for starters. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:41, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I somehow missed the earlier debacle, but I've seen cases like this before. I'm sorry you went through so much frustration over it. That was not fair, to you, to everyone who worked the case, or to the community. Hopefully we'll get it sorted this time around. Could definitely use more eyes and hands on cleaning up the astroturfing in the wake of this. Best, - CorbieVreccan 19:52, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mohammad Sadegh Amiri

Hello, can you remove the tag of Mohammad Sadegh Amiri, thank you 113.203.74.170 (talk) 21:27, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure what you are asking, or why you are asking me. Do you mean the notice that Mohammad Sadegh Amiri is currently being considered for deletion? If you want to discuss that, you will need to go to the deletion discussion here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mohammad Sadegh Amiri. - CorbieVreccan 21:31, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you read the template it says: "do not remove this notice before the discussion is closed". This applies to admins as well as all other editors. I am also unclear why you are writing me about this. I've never edited that article. Assuming you do not have Conflict of Interest, or some other reason you can't edit or participate, participate in the linked discussion and/or improve the article if you want the article preserved. Best wishes, - CorbieVreccan 18:18, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Definition of witchcraft

Saying we are harmful isn’t ok. We are healers. Please don’t attack my religion. Fix it promptly, as it is hate speech. And no, Wicca and witchcraft are not synonymous. Not all witches are Wiccan (I’m not). It’s like saying all Christian people are Catholic. Please, fix this now. 68.229.102.219 (talk) 23:58, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion for improvement of the article is better on article talk, so all the involved editors can participate. None of the content in the article is my opinion. It's based on the solid sources, and a worldwide view, not just recent, western beliefs (post Gerald Gardner) that have redefined the word in a few cultures. Traditional cultures see it very differently, and we need to represent a worldwide view. The other views are thoroughly covered as well. Read the article and the links. - CorbieVreccan 18:50, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Countering systemic bias

Is a member of WikiProject Countering systemic bias using tangential sources to cast doubt on the veracity of a living purported statutory rape victim[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] in favor of her alleged dead wealthy white male rapist? That doesn't sound right, Horse Eye's Back (talk) 23:29, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please read up on the cases thoroughly. Notably, all the many sources that document Mattix/Maddox/Lightning's life in that era. There are numerous contemporaries who were already on record about their lives, including Mattix with her contradictory versions told over the years. "Believe Survivors" means give everyone a serious listen and consideration - no matter who they are, no matter what you think of them as a person. Evaluate all the evidence and testimony with open eyes and compassion.
False accusations of rape are more unusual than false charges of carjacking. Most women, and many men, will be raped in their lifetimes, and it is hell to get charges to stick through the courts. I know all of this. All too well. But... I also know these cases and the two instances are very rare and unusual situations. Truth is not dependent on race, class, age, or gender.

Please look seriously at the timeline and read the witness statements as well as the conflicting accounts she gave. There are other accounts out there, as well, that aren't included in the article.
