Uncited content, unattributed editorial

[edit]

For the last several weeks, a contributor (or contributors?) have continued to add the same uncited content and unattributed editorial. Repeatedly. In a way that is problematic relative to WP:3RR, WP:VER, WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV and several other policies. While advisories (on how this content and editing practice is contrary to the applicable policies) have been shared on the relevant user talkpages (and via edit summaries, etc), I am opening this thread to ensure that nothing is lost. In short:

  1. Adding content which is not cited or verifiable is contrary to WP:VER. For example, a claim that the "town is similar to the city Denver, in Colorado, US" needs a reference.
  2. Adding uncited content, and then immediately tagging it as such, is not useful. For example, adding a claim that "3G and 4G internet service is available in Balouch and surrounding areas" with a tag that this addition is uncited ("[citation needed]") is not useful. Adding content, and then expecting someone else to find a reference is not appropriate. The responsibility for providing a reference lies with the editor who adds it.
  3. Adding a long list of person names, without any explanation or clarification, is beyond useless. What are other editors supposed to do? Lookup the phone book and CALL the FIFTY people listed in the "references"? And ask them verbally to validate the content? This is NOT how Wikipedia references work. Sources must be clear, reliable and verifiable. A "list of 50 random names" does not meet this expectation.
  4. Adding promotional and guidebook style content (like stating that the "best way to visit is to approach an Uber driver and move along this journey of awe and adventure") is not in keeping with WP:NOTGUIDEBOOK and WP:NOTHOWTO.
  5. Adding unattributed opinion and unqualified editorial (about the area having the "best hasheesh in the world" or "beautiful things happening on a daily basis") is entirely out of whack with the WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV guidelines.
  6. Adding content without explanation (or with edit summaries which do not provide an adequate explanation and which otherwise refer to random stuff about "Roger Rabbit" or "not creating the drama") is also not consistent with the guidelines on using meaningful edit summaries.

Editor(s) seeking to add this type of content would ideally engage here (or with the messages already left elsewhere). Continually adding content in this way is disruptive. And not useful to the project. Thanks. Escalation and WP:PP next. Guliolopez (talk) 11:06, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't any personal info, next year.
