Thank you for catching that deletion in the middle of my editing. I missed it. Glad to know someone else is still paying attention (my edits deserve auditing also). FWIW, the above warning was not personal. You appear to be acting in good faith. I also warned all of the IP editor sockpuppets.

The blanket warning was in the interest of neutrality.

Hello Cupcake!

Nick Turse OpEd in the NYT

In your massive deletion edit of 18:14 today, you removed a large amount of content added by User:Readerfix. Perhaps you did this wholesale with a revert not noted in your edit summary. What perhaps you hadn't noticed is that between two sets of consecutive edits by that User, you also deleted the External link I'd added. This was to an OpEd piece by Nick Turse, published in the New York Times online edition of Oct. 9 and in the print edition of the International Herald Tribune on Oct. 11. This is no cherry-picking on my part, even if these two long-established and respected secondary sources have essentially one in the same editorial policy. None of the other External links on that page provide a piece of writing by Nick Turse as this one does. I believe it belongs in Wikipedia and am restoring it, also noting this on the article's Talk page. -- Deborahjay (talk) 18:33, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
ETA: I did see the subsequent activity by User:Readerfix reverting your edit (which restores, for now, the Ext. link about which I wrote above), and also the Talk page issue. I'll add my support - hope it helps. And do you know of a WP Style guide for biographies of investigative journalists, that would give proper section headings? I've been meaning to learn the ropes of that, among other things. -- Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 18:42, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Michaelmas

Chisme, I agree with basically all of your points on V. S. Naipaul‎ talk - the images and stilted language should go. There is an excess of needless detail for a wikipage, and now dozens of citations to a single work. I haven't worked on the Naipaul page since 2008 or so, and then only briefly, as Naipaul‎ is not one of my primary interests, but I am up for opening a larger discussion on Fowler's behavior, adding canvassing of sympathetic editors to his already questionable comments and insistence that he needs a month to have sole editing control of a BLP. I mentioned an Rfc in the talk, but conflict resolution noticeboard might be a better place to take this. Thoughts?Dialectric (talk) 21:24, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've written a brief statement at User:Dialectric/dispute. If you have any suggestions, I'd like to hear them. The best place for this is probably Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, as Wikipedia:Dispute resolution is for content disputes, and I would characterize the issue at V. S. Naipaul‎ as primarily a user conduct dispute/ incident. RFC/RFCU's appear to be for large, ongoing problems, and hopefully this can be resolved with some administrator input.

Dan Senor

Hello Chisme,

In regards to the recent events in Iraq, please see WP:RECENT. Dan Senor's BLP is not the place to highlight an event currently unfolding in the Middle East. It is a page dedicated to the biography of Dan Senor. Even if the conflict persist, it's a stretch to say that Senor is somehow responsible for the war in Iraq, and another stretch to say that "the war in Iraq was the biggest foreign policy bungle in US history." If you are interested in brining attention to the article by Dowd, perhaps you should add the quotation to the Iraq War page, where it would be more appropriate.

Additionally, please see WP:COATRACk. From the subsection titled "The Attack Article" (also found in WP:Attack page) I've included a portion that is relevant to the content you've added back to the page and the article you are citing by Dowd:

John Doe works as a journalist. He has given over 30 years of long and faithful service to his newspaper. However, one day, he made the terrible mistake of nearly reporting an unchecked fact that came within a whisker of ruining an innocent person's life. Because he did this, he is an evil person. Here is some more information about this incident… (and so on, and so forth).

By no means am I trying to start an edit war with you. While I understand where you are coming from, I respectful disagree with you. Dowd's article should not be mentioned on a page dedicated specifically to the biography of Dan Senor because of the numerous reasons I have cited since removing the material in the first place. I've cited various WP violations now and I hope that, at the very least, you can see where I am coming from with my decision to remove the sentence from the page.

McMillan quote

Hi, I don't know if you've been following the talk page, but at least one other editor opposes including this quote, either in whole or in part. While I don't have any strong position either way, I think we should temporarily remove it until we can create a stable version. I don't agree with the argument that opposes including the quote, but I don't see it as essential to include either. For the moment, until we can get a stable version, would you be amenable to removing the quote in total, and creating a Wikiquote page for McMillan that includes the quote instead? We can link to it at the bottom of the article. Let me know. Viriditas (talk) 05:25, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greg Brockman and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Julian Shapiro. You are absolutely right that we're seeing a great deal of it--it sometimes seems like everyone on earth wants to turn us into a directory. One place to go to alert editors to this sort of thing is the WP:Conflict of interest noticeboard. Consider also using your own judgement and placing tags for ((advertising)) or ((press release)) and also for ((COI)) on the articles. DGG ( talk ) 01:17, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Gravity4

Like the IPs and new accounts, I get the sense that you are also are a relatively inexperienced user. I get that tangentially by your heading Sexual Harassment Complaint—which not being in lower case (Sexual harassment complaint), instantly got my attention. The question is not only whether there was a sexual harassment suit filed(?), but whether there was a ruling in a court of law. You need to review our living people crime policy very carefully. Then get back to me. As for the incivility, I'll warn the accounts to keep it cool. As for stalking you, I tend to doubt that. It looks like a concerted effort on the part of Gurbaksh Chahal—which means a conflict of interests and use of the talk pages only for relevant articles, but also having the benefit of our strict policy about living people whose crime section I place in bold for a reason. The point is: we don't usually write about an ongoing legal suit. As an encyclopedia, the policy is to wait for the ruling. If it's in the arrest or grand jury or indictment or suit stages, we don't write about it. Only when it has passed judicial burden of proof, does a section such as this is allowed. That said, the policy is reserved for people who are relatively unknown. I'm unble to judge how well-known Gurbaksh Chahal is, to know how to proceed. Though I get the (cursory) sense that he is well-known enough for that part of the policy not to apply and for that section to be fine as it is. As for the heading, it needs to be precise, according to what type of suit was filed. And it doesn't sound like there was sexual harassment, so I'm not sure why you keep insisting on it. El_C 19:04, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I got the heading from the Forbes magazine article, also cited in the text: "Chahal And Gravity4 Hit With Gender Discrimination, Illegal Surveillance Lawsuit." In separate legal controversies, Chahal in 2014 pled guilty to charges of domestic violence battery and was sentenced to three years' probation. While still on probation in 2016, a San Francisco court revoked Chahal's probation after evidence of an additional domestic violence incident emerged. He was sentenced him to one year in jail. That sentence is currently under appeal. Do we have to wait for an appeal judgement to put it in the article? As for the first domestic violence incident, he plead guilty. So it can go in the article, right? Chisme (talk) 19:20, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Please be wary of conflating the two articles. In Gravity4, the suit is against the company (which Wikipedia does not consider a person), although Chahal's reputation can obviously be seen to be involved. And it appears to be a discrimination suit. So where did you get the sexual part from? In Gurbaksh Chahal: What do you mean under appeal? By whom? How so? Yes, it can go in because there was a conviction, and possibly also because he probably cannot be seen as relatively unknown (I'm still not clear how well-known he truly is—whether his article oversells his notability, or maybe undersells it.) El_C 19:34, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I like your heading "Discrimination Suit." Let's leave it at that. I hope 73.15.10.151 and Jui89 let it stand. By "under appeal," I mean that Chahal and his lawyers appealed the judge's one-year jail sentence. He was sentenced on 12 August 2016. The article says, "he remained free on $250,000 bail, pending an appeal that his attorney has 30 days to file." Don't know what happened after the thirty days. As for how little known or well known he is, that is a subjective judgement. He is known well enough to have his career and legal troubles documented in New York Magazine, Forbes, and numerous newspapers and magazines. That makes him well known in my book, but what do I know? My ignorance of the arcane of Wikipedia appalls me. Chisme (talk) 20:05, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]


So nothing sexual, in the suit, then? Again, I get the strong sense that he is well known enough for BLPCRIME not to apply—that means any of his legal troubles become part of his biography and are assumed to be well-known outside of and not primarily due to Wikipedia, which by contrast, would be the case with relatively unknown persons. The appeal is not really at issue, and should just be part of the overall biographical account. What I am concerned with, on the other hand, is the privacy of Erika Alonso, whose name should be redacted. El_C 20:55, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I conflated "sexual" and "gender." My mistake. I had never heard the term "gender harassment" before." Like I said, I like your "discrimination." Then we agree that his "legal troubles" or "crimes" or whatever term applies may be part of his Wikipedia article, since he is a relatively known person. I don't know what to make of the appeal. All news about it ceased after August of 2016. I assume it's still being wrangled by lawyers. We agree completely: victim Erika Alonso is not to be mentioned in the Gravity4 or Gurbaksh Chahal article. Chisme (talk) 21:35, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I think it'd be just called harassment and discrimination suits, but I am an historian, not a lawyer (and am unfamiliar with Florida statutes). August 2016 is not exactly speedy, indeed. Anyway, unless he is acquitted, I think we can safely say crimes. Back to Gravity4, I've gone ahead and redacted any mention of the plaintiff from the article. El_C 22:29, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks El_C for all your help and consideration. And also for removing Erika Alonso's name. My next step is to go to the Talk page at Gurbaksh Chahal and explain why a brief paragraph about his domestic violence history belongs in the lede. As well, I believe his domestic violence history shouldn't be shunted to the bottom of the article as was done by 96.8.1.144. Then maybe when the April 10 cool-off period ends we can fix the article without very much haggling. Thanks again. Chisme (talk) 22:40, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you El_C. Just for my knowledge, does every complaint filed against the company is to be listed on wikipedia? The reason I ask is companies like Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, etc have have various 'complaints' filed against them by their employees. Not unless a judgement is made, these complaints aren't listed. Therefore, I recommend removing this entire section of "discrimination section" till a judgment is made on this complaint.

Warning regarding sourcing

Chisme, some of your recent edits, which have removed maintenance tags, and added unsourced content, have been brought to my attention. I would probably be justified in blocking you, but I'm choosing to believe that you wish to contribute constructively. Therefore, please take this as a final warning. You must not add content to an article without citing a source. A source already in the article at a random location does not count; a source supporting the content you add must be presented with this content. You must not remove maintenance templates without addressing the issue they are flagging, so long as they are not being added disruptively, which in this case they are not. You were warned multiple times for this, but you chose to ignore those warnings. If you make the same type of edit again, expect a block without further warning. Vanamonde (talk) 09:43, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article section lacked any WP:RS, which is against our policy of Wikipedia:Verifiability ("In Wikipedia, verifiability means that other people using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source. Wikipedia does not publish original research."). This section was appropriately tagged with Template:Unreferenced Section which serves as a callout for editors to improve specific deficits within articles. Rather than simply leave this alone or fix the issue, you (again) decided to remove the maintenance tag without addressing the issue. You were specifically warned (above) not do this, as these actions actively hinder improvement of articles. Please desist. UW Dawgs (talk) 21:40, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to Hubspot page

Hello Chisme, thanks for your swift attention to changes made to the Hubspot page. I don't completely disagree with your assessment that the added detail was unnecessary -- a listing of awards, and also a list of acquisitions. The reason I did add them is that the previous edition of the page included two mentions of acquisitions, and also two references to "best company to work for", in rather haphazard fashion. The revised list is cleaner, more complete, and up to date.

I am inclined to agree that these data points are somewhat too fine-grained to include for a Wikipedia post. What do you think about simply removing the old and somewhat outdated edits? FWIW, I used the Salesforce.com page as a guide. Salesforce.com and HubSpot are in the same industry/market, and both are publicly traded companies.

Also, I am an employee of Hubspot. I figured I would tackle the facts-only portion of the existing page before tackling the basic description of the company (e.g., the company has than marketing and sales products). I am glad you jumped in before I started working on that :-) Afmahon (talk) 17:46, 2 October 2019 (UTC)Afmahon[reply]

As much s I hate even cited negative content on Wikipedia, it is reliably sourced and consensus seems to be against my opinion. While being paid to edit Wikipedia is a TOS violation, that's between the editor and the Foundation. That sword can cut two ways. As far as Mr Cahal is concerned, he and anyone working for him needs to remember that truth is an absolute defence against defamation. This looks like a threat of off-Wiki action. It looks intended to to intimidate anyone who dares include content unfavorable to Mr Cahal. Such is also a TOs violation and an example of WP:NOTHERE behavior.-- Deepfriedokra 23:41, 27 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Deepfriedokra I have already mentioned this before that I am not a paid editor. So, I would respect the same respect you give others and take this as a good faith. As far as threats are concerned, I haven't made any. I simply said if he is a paid editor hired to troll, the walls will be closing in on that operation. As far as off-wiki action, I don't even know what to make of that accusation. Like seriously where do you even come up with that??? I find it appalling, when these editors gang up on me, I get banned for 72 hours. When I tell them to follow wikipedia policy or ask if they are getting paid, I am accusing them of threats? As far as white-washing this article is concerned, why don't you look at the history of this page. For six years, it's been under full negative control by the same three individuals. Coincidence???

Issues with your edits at Gurbaksh Chahal

Hello Chisme, my apologies for the delayed response to your query on my talk page.
"...other editors congratulate me on reaching a consensus" -> at the time you wrote this comment, there was only one congratulatory remark issued by Crystallizedcarbon. As for the consensus, three editors (yourself excluded) is fairly weak consensus for a change that others have clearly found to be contentious. Other editors, such as Deepfriedokra and Winged Blades of Godric have brought up concerns with your edits to this article already on the talk page.
Edits like this and this demonstrate editing without a neutral point of view as she was his girlfriend at the time of the assault and he was put in a county jail, not a prison. You also appear to have removed sourcing with an extremely concerning edit summary. Saying "Until you find another source, you can't say "The Dream" was a bestseller; the source listed here (https://mandiner.hu/cikk/20191229_az_erettsegizetlen_milliardos) is a Hungarian website. Do you read Hungarian? Show me in the article where it says "The Dream" is a bestseller." raises concerns that you do not fully understand what constitutes a reliable source. Reliable sources do not have to be in English. Having a source in Hungarian is totally fine. These edits were in contradiction to reliable sources, which is extremely concerning on a biography of a living person, as is the apparent lack of a neutral point of view and failure to adaquately understand reliable sources. Repeated violations of WP:BLP policy can result in arbitration enforcement discretionary sanctions as BLPs are an area which AEs cover. --TheSandDoctor Talk 06:09, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
