My reasons for downsizing parts of this sidebar[edit]
Per my edit summary:
"major revision; general reorganizing; for the sake of not bloating the template, I've removed both the "Organizations" and "Riots and other violent incidents", since (unfortunately) if we counted all of them, we would be here all day, and it would be cumbersome to deal with in visual editing mode. more focus seems like the better option here"XTheBedrockX (talk) 02:10, 1 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Hi Thismess, your recent edit Special:Diff/1184227836 (which I reverted in Special:Diff/1190199519) removed all media organizations from this template. Your edit was accompanied by your removal of this template from a number of articles about anti-Muslim websites listed in this template, including the following edits:
While your edit summary in Special:Diff/1184227836 claims that your edits are supported by consensus, it is unclear which discussions that claim is based on. The corresponding template for antisemitism, Template:Antisemitism sidebar, has the sections "Antisemitic publications" and "Antisemitism on the Internet" which contain lists of antisemitic media outlets that are much more comprehensive than the "Media" section of this template is for anti-Muslim websites, so there is clearly no consensus to remove all media organizations from all templates related to discrimination. I have reverted all of the removals per WP:BRD pending discussion. — Newslingertalk 07:49, 19 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I have encountered problems with Thismess's removal's of categories in the past, to do with islamophobia in instances where Thismess has claimed (in edit summaries) that the articles in question don't support the categories. Simple googles searches and the addition of sourced material have indicated that the articles do support said categories. I have thought about leaving warnings on Thismess's page in relation to this but I couldn't be bothered. TarnishedPathtalk 10:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
In the spirit of WP:BRD, it would make sense to leave a message on the talk page of the article when these removals are reverted. This provides a record of the reversion that is more easily accessible than the article history, and lets other editors get a better understanding of what the consensus is should the removals be made or proposed again. — Newslingertalk 02:17, 7 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
