Pieces I've written

  1. My view on Edit Wars (OPINION)
  2. Everyone whose death is controversial

My view on Edit Wars (OPINION. Written on November 30, 2024. Completed on December 1, 2024)

[edit]

I don't support edit wars. It makes Wikipedia gloomy for the editors (old and new):

Screenshot of the latter can be seen here (it was taken on Nov 30, 2024):

Later, at 14:23 PM (GMT) the same day (November 30) - the word murdered[NOTE 1] was removed. Why?

HERE IS THE ANSWER ~ Natalie Wood's cause of death is disputed, as indicated in the following:

People are victims to sensationalism these days, as seen in the People article talking about Natalie Wood's death[1], often coming to this conclusion (sadly accepted): Robert Wagner murdered her - when THERE IS NO confirmation. I believe Donald Trump is a likely supporter of the murder theory[NOTE 2], as with other theories - all to be found misleading; deceptive; unsolved or just 'blatant disinformation'. But PEOPLE keep believing in them, thanks to sensationalism.

If Trump makes such statements about the deaths of Natalie Wood or Marilyn Monroe - it would not be surprising, given his nature. Marilyn Monroe's tragic and shocking death in 1962 is subject to various conspiracy theories already - long before Trump started his own theories on other things. Again, if he airs his views on Natalie Wood and Marilyn Monroe's respective deaths, it will remind me of the controversy of his friend, Jeffrey Epstein's death, many people thought (some still do) he was murdered too.

How to prevent Edit Wars

[edit]

Please - cite reliable sources. Sources like the Daily Mail and Breitbart News are banned from Wikipedia - they CANNOT (in any circumstance) be added into an article. See in their articles for more info.:

  1. Why Wikipedia banned the Daily Mail as a source around February 2017
  2. Why Wikipedia banned Breitbart News as a source around September 2018

Conclusion

[edit]

Don't succumb to misinformation - especially if you ARE a Wikipedia editor like me.

Notes for My view on Edit Wars piece

[edit]
  • [NOTE 1]: Since c. 2010-2012; Robert Wagner's reputation as a respected actor has been largely destroyed by alleged suspension/guilt over his wife's death. Despite this, he still has loyal fans (including me; who learnt more about both Wagner and Wood - sans controversy of Wood's death - in 2023).
  • [NOTE 2]: There is no public evidence of Donald Trump supporting the theory.

Everyone whose death is controversial (Written on January 21, 2025)

[edit]

Here are some controversial deaths and my view:

A Complete List of Reactions to the Death of Jimmy Carter

[edit]

These three paragraphs are an excerpt from Death and state funeral of Jimmy Carter - Reactions.

President Joe Biden stated that "America and the world lost an extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian", and president-elect Donald Trump said Carter "did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans."[4] In an address from Saint Croix in the United States Virgin Islands, Biden said that Carter was a "remarkable leader".[5] Former presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton paid tribute to Carter, as did former vice president Al Gore.[6][7] Senator Bernie Sanders, for whom Carter voted during the 2016 Democratic Party presidential primaries, stated that "Jimmy Carter, both for what he did as president and in his later years, will be remembered as a decent, honest and down-to-earth man."[8][9] Across Georgia's political landscape, his death was also mourned by Governor Brian Kemp, former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler, the state's congressional delegation and many others by both Republicans and Democrats in Georgia. Delta Air Lines, operating its largest hub in Atlanta, also reacted to Carter's death, lauding his past life.[10]

Internationally, Carter's death was mourned by Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, King Charles III of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms, British prime minister Keir Starmer,[11] Italian president Sergio Mattarella, Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel, Egyptian president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, French president Emmanuel Macron, German chancellor Olaf Scholz, Bangladeshi chief advisor Muhammad Yunus, Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán, Israeli president Isaac Herzog, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Japanese prime minister Shigeru Ishiba, Panamanian president José Raúl Mulino, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Pope Francis, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, Indian prime minister Narendra Modi, Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese, Chinese president Xi Jinping, Dutch prime minister Dick Schoof, King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, European Council president António Costa, Maldivian president Mohamed Muizzu, Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas, Philippine president Bongbong Marcos, Tanzanian president Samia Suluhu Hassan, South African president Cyril Ramaphosa, and Vietnamese president Lương Cường.

Unlike other reactions, Iranian state television's coverage of Carter's death characterized him as the "architect of economic sanctions" and remarked on his "failure" to "properly deal with Iran". A moment of silence was held for Carter at the United Nations Security Council on December 30.

The following paragraph is from my own words.

Former governor of Massachusetts Michael Dukakis reflected on Jimmy Carter, calling him "a guy of real integrity".[12]

Sadly, I was too lazy to add more references here. Will do it later.
