Proposed deletion of Macroshock[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Macroshock, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

This article only serves to document an inconsistency in the application of a term in related literature. WP:NEO.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((dated prod)) notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.  Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 15:40, 16 March 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Speedy deletion of Myocardial bridge[edit]

A tag has been placed on Myocardial bridge requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hangon)) to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Operation Dark Huntor moved to draftspace[edit]

Thanks for your contributions to Operation Dark Huntor. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:19, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Aviram,
Not sure what you are talking about as far as "non-free sources" the 2 primary sources cited are 2 US federal government press releases, which are both free and available for public use. I'm working on obtaining other sources for an other wise "top secret" and "sensitive materials' government operation, so primary sources are going to be scarce.
I'm going to remove the tag, if you have an explanation for the tag, feel free to write me back and please add to the talk page of the main page so other people can benefit from this discussion. eximo (talk) 22:02, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

January 2024[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Operation Dark Huntor. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 01:59, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I did a Move page for Operation Blacklist -> Operation Blackwrist. A trial transcript had the word mis-transcribed.
However, Operation Dark Huntor was created de-novo. There is a section I copied and pasted between two government operations that had identical information, but I'm not sure how any of what was copied would have created an issue, I don't think there was any active texts. Can you identify the section that I created an issue so I can inspect it? eximo (talk) 04:20, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm reviewing my edits, I did copy the page deficiencies in the TALK page from Operation Blackwrist into the TALK page of Operation Dark Huntor, however, I don't see any issues since they both have the same deficiencies. Is that what you were referring to? eximo (talk) 04:25, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Asilvering:,
This "secret" committee doesn't have a landing page anywhere on the internet. There isn't a news organization that has tackled it yet, and there isn't a watch dog organization that has taken it to task or under-observation. The only knowledge of it's existence are in court documents. This single committee is responsible for ALL boiler plate affidavits across the United States by the FBI or the HSI to get search warrants of peoples homes and other property. This article rates as High or probably TOP [important] on the importance scale for Wiki articles in the Wikiproject law enforcement and wiki project law.
If you are going to turn down my draft, I would appreciate you not just use a boilerplate to discount it, as to the 4 qualities believed to be deficient. I request that you discuss it's deficiencies on the talk page as to the four subjects:
  • in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
  • reliable
  • secondary
  • strictly independent of the subject
for reliability and at least low quality depth I think that a federal prosecutor describing the committee and how it works in a court document sufficient.
as for the sources being primary or secondary, that is always an issue that receives a lower bar for any information related to government operations where the government has routinely attempted to keep the information secret. This committee, it's members, and their specific responsibilities, powers, etc. are all at this time not disclosed, FOIAable nor able to obtained by inspection or observation.
I respectfully ask that you reconsider, or in the alternative, provide a detailed explanation of why you declined to allow the page's creation as well as what you further expect to be done before the page can be created.eximo (talk) 19:09, 29 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

February 2024[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Operation Torpedo. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:37, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@DiannaaI very much appreciate that you are taking the time to care, to message me, and to help improve wikipedia. Your message is really non specific and not enough for me to ascertain what content you are suggesting nor what deficiency there is in citing it. I have worked diligently to provide reference sources to each and every fact stated. As you can tell, in the past week I've nearly remade the entire article from whole cloth, in addition to Operation Lobos 1. If you have suggestions, I'm very much open to them so that the article can achieve and enjoy a lofty standing. eximo (talk) 15:37, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
What I did is I noticed that the citation https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ned.62281/gov.uscourts.ned.62281.50.0.pdf is in the public domain, so I added a template ((source-attribution)) as part of the citation so that the reader is made aware that the prose was copied from there, and not written by a Wikipedian. I added a reference notation after each segment of the article that was copied from that source. Check my edit. — Diannaa (talk) 20:32, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Source problems at List of suspects in Operation Torpedo[edit]

Please read WP:BLPPRIMARY, particularly where it says Do not use trial transcripts and other court records, or other public documents, to support assertions about a living person. You cannot use those sources that you've added. Schazjmd (talk) 20:23, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

In fact, you should remove every name on that page that does not have a secondary reliable source. Schazjmd (talk) 20:24, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@SchazjmdSchazjmd, I'm not sure that the WP:BLPPRIMARY is indicating that you can't use court documents as a primary source for things the court system has done to a person, or issued, such as a judgement or arrest or other event. There is a vast amount of information that is generated in court documents which are unacceptable to use as a primary source about a person, but that is different that describing the judiciary procedures. An court record about the arrest of a person is certainly adequate to create a reference to the arrest of the person for example, as is a judgement, appeal, release, and statistics about the case. These aren't really facts about the person, as much as they are facts about the operation and the prosecution that followed.

see Wikipedia talk:Biographies of living persons/Archive 29 for discussion on the topic

Therefore, I firmly disagree with your interpretation of the WP:BLPPRIMARY, but do think that the WP:BLPPRIMARY needs to be updated for clarity for such situations as this. eximo (talk) 20:31, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the ((Ctopics/aware)) template.

@Schazjmd
The rules that are broadly applied to keep from doxing an individual beyond what is necessary when precedential law has occurred is to not publish personal identifiable information. Things like, street address, birthdate, social security number, names of other family members, friends or witnesses, email addresses, business name or address, bank records etc. An example is the famous Roe v. Wade, in which the name of the woman that is named in the suit is known, however, it would not have been prudent to publish other identifiable information that could aid those that would have harassed her. These are rules that are in line with both the Federal Rules of Criminal procedure which governs the Judiciary, and the privacy act which governs the executive branch and much of the private sector. eximo (talk) 21:13, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
