Is the implication here that William Loyd Garrison was not an Antisemite? How is acknowledgement of this fact vandalism? 204.83.77.42 (talk) 06:42, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry,it was a misunderstanding by me! Feel free to remove the message :) TheAstorPastor (talk) 06:44, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Well. Perhaps Wikipedia moderators should not threaten loss of editing privileges over "Vandalism" for the clear statement that historic individuals whose wikipedia pages have sections labelled "Antisemitism" are, in fact, Antisemites.

I am confused as to what exactly the misunderstanding was. I accurately added to Garrison's page that he was an Antisemite. There is a section of his page discussing his public, well recorded antisemitism.

Where exactly does vandalism come into this picture? 204.83.77.42 (talk) 06:50, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am really sorry if I hurt you, but FYI, I am not a wikipidea moderator, and I was just patrolling recent changes . We have seen a great number of people who come to Wikipidea for just one purpose and that is vandalism and they usually write homophobic or antisemitic-related things. I did not do the proper research on the William guy and since you were editing for an IP, I thought you were of the same type. Well, it would be nice if you forgive me, and I am really, really sorry! TheAstorPastor (talk) 06:56, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps you should look to see if historic figures whose pages are edited to say "This person was Antisemitic" have a section of their page dedicated to their well recorded history of public antisemitism.

Yeah I saw that and that's why I didn't revert your edit again and I'm really really sorry! TheAstorPastor (talk) 07:00, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(passing-by user) @TheAstorPastor, you say "[..] We have seen a great number of people who come to Wikipidea for just one purpose and that is vandalism [..]", and yet I can't help but notice how your account is less than 8 days old - have you had other accounts before? – 2804:F14:80AD:C201:A1F1:53F1:AD24:FA49 (talk) 07:02, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No but I spent many days editing as an IP address on my old laptop TheAstorPastor (talk) 07:03, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at William Lloyd Garrison, you may be blocked from editing. InDimensional (talk) 10:43, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Final warning for edit-warring and violating WP:LEDE[edit]

Labels like "antisemite" don't belong in the WP:LEDE unless it's what the inidividual is primarily known for. If there is sufficient sourcing to say that an individual held antisemtic views, that can be discussed in the body of the article.OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked 36 hours for edit-warring and not following WP:LEDE[edit]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You now have 36 hours to clear up your confusion by reading WP:LEDE as well as the numerous warnings left here. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 03:00, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is the implication here that William Lloyd Garrison was not an Antisemite? 204.83.77.42 (talk) 03:51, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The implication is that you don't appear to understand WP:LEDE. There is already a section on Garrison's anti-Semitic statements in the article. Garrison was not primarily known as an anti-Semite, and as such it doesn't belong in the article's lede paragraph. We can label George Washington and any number of other contemporaries as "racist" by modern definitions, but we don't include that label either in the lede because it's not what they are known for in a historical context. If you resume disruptive editing after this block, your next block will be for a longer period. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:44, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you implying Washington wasn't racist? Weird of you to put it in quotes and add "by modern definitions"

John Graves Simcoe was a contemporary who abolished slavery in Upper Canada.

Meanwhile, in George Washington.... 204.83.77.42 (talk) 01:04, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Meanwhile, you won't be editing William Lloyd Garrison for awhile. If you attempt to violate WP:LEDE elsewhere or make any other sorts of disruptive edits, your partial block will be expanded to a full block. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 02:22, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure about that? Public Wifi is more common than you seem to think. 204.83.77.42 (talk) 02:28, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
