Lists of active separatist movements

[edit]

All these list have the word "active" in their title. I am getting fed-up with again and again having to remove added groups, parties and militants that no longer are active, some of them for a long time. Please do not add new entries unless you are absolutely sure that thay are active. Regarding the Bodoland addition, Wiki's own articles – the very same articles you linked – make it quite clear that the two militant organisations stopped their activities in 2003 and 2020, respectively, following the autonomy and later extended autonomy given to the area. If you are quite sure, please add. If you are the least in doubt, use the talk page. T*U (talk) 15:16, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry that I have to repeat this: Your enthusiasm for finding movements to add to these lists is quite admirable, but the lists are about active movements. Please add new entries only if there are reliable and recent sources to support the inclusion. --T*U (talk) 09:46, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as Northern Aleppo, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. – dudhhr (1 enby in a trenchcoat) talk contribs (he/they) 15:56, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is enough now

[edit]

Please, could you stop making unsourced additions to the "separatist movements" lists. If the targetted articles do not mention autonomism, separatism or anything similar, and if you cannot present reliable sources supporting your entries, you are just making a lot of work (and irritation) for other editors who have to check all your edits. Please see WP:V about verifiability. T*U (talk) 17:11, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is really getting out of hand. Your addition of long lists of "organisations", "movements" and "parties" without one single reference is plain disruptive. Please take some time to learn how Wikipedia works. I have linked you to WP:V about verifiability before, but you have obviously not bothered to read it. You should also read about reliable sources at WP:RS. Bear in mind that Wikipedia is not a blog where you can spread your personal ideas about things that looks interesting to you. Wikipedia is supposed to be an encyclopedia, not a collection of unverifiable bric-a-brac. While you are at it, you should also read about original research at WP:OR. Just saying. --T*U (talk) 17:01, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of active separatist movements in Africa, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zulu. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Last attempt to explain

[edit]

As you have not reacted to my earlier notices here in your user talk page, I do not know if you even have read them. If you have not, it is now time to do so. I have tried to be very patient and explaining things thoroughly, but if you do not read it, it is of course in vain. I find your enthusiasm admirable, and you have certainly added some movements that belong in the articles, but if you are going to stay around Wikipedia, you will need to learn how Wikipedia works. That means to read and follow guidelines and policies, and to learn how to co-operate with others.

First of all, Wikipedia is a community project, meaning that it is based on co-operation between editors. We help eachother out, sometimes we criticize eachother, but in the end, it is the joint effort we make together that builds the encyclopedia. That means that we have to communicate, which we do through edit summaries, but also by taking part in discussions in talk pages and/or user talk pages.

One of the most important principles of Wikipedia is verifiability, see WP:V. Everything we put into the articles must be possible for other editors to verify. That is done by using sources. All statements that are not obvious, must be supported by reliable sources, see WP:RS, preferably academic sources, but also quality news media and similar. We report what the sources say, we do not make our own conclusions. That is called original research and is not allowed, see WP:OR. Combining the information from different sources into new conclusions is also not allowed. That is called synthesis, see WP:SYNTH.

Some articles, like these "List of"-articles, have an introduction presenting the scope of the article, saying what belongs and what does not belong. It is important to follow these criteria, so that all the content of the article falls within the same scope.

If there is a disagreement about whether something belongs in the article, that is solved through discussion and consensus, see WP:CONSENSUS. If you add content, making a Bold edit, and someone Reverts you, the correct procedure is not to enter the content again, but to open a Discussion in the talk page, see WP:BRD. If you still do not agree, there are several tools for solving disagreements.

I hope you read this, and more important, that you follow the links I have given and study the policies and guidelines carefully. Then I am sure you will be a valuable contributor to Wikipedia. Regards. T*U (talk) 14:09, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
