Also left on what I assume is your IP's talk page[edit]
The intro of articles summarizes the body of the article. If something is supported in the body, it's baseless to remove it from the intro on the grounds of "uncited." The last paragraph of the intro is summarizing the "criticism" section that you keep moving it to, so moving it there renders it redundant. Pay attention and read more of the article instead of just the intro instead of engaging in a slow edit war to censor the intro. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:03, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Ian, thank you for opening up a dialog about this issue and I hope that it will be based on logic and civility. Wikipedia's stated mission is to share accepted knowledge. Wikipedia states, "We find "accepted knowledge" in high quality, published sources. By "high quality" we mean books by reputable publishers, high-quality newspapers like The New York Times, or literature reviews in the scientific literature...Please make sure that anything you write in Wikipedia is based on such sources - not what's in your head." Based on these standards, the item that I have removed was not based on any such sources and thus does not meet Wikipedia's guidelines or policies. In addition, your statement that the 'intro is a summary of the body' is not supported by any guidelines. In fact, the guidelines state that the into should be "a clear explanation of what the subject of the page is" not a summary. Furthermore, "One of the key policies of Wikipedia is that all article content has to be verifiable. This means that a reliable source must be able to support the material." Help:Introduction_to_referencing_with_VisualEditor/1 Thus it's the burden of the person adding the information to provide the cite that meets these standards. Referencing the body of the document itself as support for the statement is against the policies pointed out above and is not a legitimate source. Everybody who wants to contribute to Wikipedia is welcomed but they must conform to the stated policies. What I removed does not meet any of these standards and I will continue to remove this item each time it appears. I understand that this is an emotional topic for many and that parties such as yourself want to make PC statements but Wikipedia is not the forum for this, you must seek a different outlet. The Men's Right's Movement is specifically about as the title state's Men's rights and the evidence that there are multiple injustices happening to men and that they are losing rights to equal treatment, an example of one of the outrageous injustices that created this movement is the 10 women's shelters for every 1 there is for men, that most of the homeless are thus men due to this, it is about injustices happening to men and not about antifeminism; in fact, some of the men's rights movements support and are aligned with feminist groups as they are helping them deal with the same injustices that were metered out to women. I have also included a cite in the talk page that supports that the statement removed is the opposite. Certainly, there will be antifeminist involved with the movement since it will be easy to see them as scapegoats, but it does not make the movement antifeminist just like there are also likely as many men in the mens rights movement that are also in the construction field but you wouldn't include that it is notably pro construction. It's just an irrational result for this to be include in the article anywhere let alone in the intro. If you want to put that statement someone put it in the critism section and provide a cite supporting it.--Yoleo (talk) 23:36, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section:
The lead serves as an introduction to the article and a summary of its most important contents.
- MOS:LEADCITE:
Because the lead will usually repeat information that is in the body, editors should balance the desire to avoid redundant citations in the lead with the desire to aid readers in locating sources for challengeable material.
- This is how it works in almost every other article, and any experienced editor will tell you this. You are selectively quoting an essay with suggestions on how to write articles and the help manual for the Visual Editor (which is not the true site interface but an intermediary to make things easier for new users), not policies, guidelines, or the manual of style.
- Don't try to teach grandmother to suck eggs.
- At Talk:Men's rights movement, you cited one cherry-picked journal article against three articles and seven books. This does not fit with our policy on neutrality, which is determined (in part) by due weight from sources.
- Your failure to assume good faith with regard to this topic says more about you than anything else.
the evidence that there are multiple injustices happening to men and that they are losing rights to equal treatment
is pretty solid proof -- that you are an adherent of MRM beliefs and so are the proverbial pot when implying that anyone else might be biased with regard to the article. Ian.thomson (talk) 04:18, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
November 2018[edit]
Your recent editing history at Men's rights movement shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Request reason:
Decline reason:
I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
- the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
- the block is no longer necessary because you
- understand what you have been blocked for,
- will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
- will make useful contributions instead.
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired.
- You didn't walk into an edit war, you caused the edit war. You were given reasons not to restore the edits and told to seek consensus on the talk page -- which you refused to do. You were given a warning to stop reverting, right above on this very same talk page -- it is your fault if you refused to read it. You keep accusing anyone who doesn't give you your way of malice, bias, and now bullying -- a failure to assume good faith and without proper evidence, a personal attack. You're even freaking out about a template that says in the second sentence that
It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date
. The template does acknowledge that you are an editor -- and that you will be held to a higher standard when editing articles on gender-related disputes/controversies. There's nothing stopping to from either abiding by policy or finding other topics where you would be more comfortable learning about our site's policies. - Your summary of the talk page is rather curious as anyone can look at it and see that every editor who responded to you pointed out problems with your suggestions. I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that amounted to "support." You were told you could make changes -- but that you had no support for them and that they would be reverted. Someone who understands the concept of cooperation would have considered trying to get support.
- You really
don't see why no action is being taken against "long time editors"
...? The possibility that maybe you're going about this the wrong way and that more experienced users who know what they're doing haven't done anything wrong has not occurred to you? Is the concept that maybe people who have been doing something longer than you utterly alien, occult, eldritch, that you won't take this as an opportunity to learn? Or do you think your MRM beliefs justify your actions regardless of this community's standards? Ian.thomson (talk) 05:34, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
