Welcome to my Talk Page | ||
If we have a difference of opinion, I'm open to discussing it if the issue is meaningful, significant and worth my time. I ignore comments containing hyperbole, profanity, nonsense, attacks, and attitudes/behaviors I personally find offensive; I also ignore ones that I don't think are worth the time to respond. If you do not like this,
click here. I have very strong feelings about the importance of notability, policies and guidelines, sources and evidence. Best wishes from Los Angeles, // Timothy :: talk |

You have in this edit linked WP:ONUS to justify the *addition* of content to an article. Were you confused about whether you were removing text instead? 100.36.106.199 ( talk) 12:41, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I am the source, since I am about 90 years old and I lived in those areas at that time. Wikipedia says that anyone can edit - but apparently not the witnesses. You apparently expect the German and Soviet bandits to doccument their genocidal actions and preserve those documents in the public libraries. The only published fact of that kind was Hitler's order to his generals several days before the planned attack, beginning WW2: "Be cruel! Be more cruel than your neighbour in action! I will shoot everyone who utters a word against this order." In the USSR the secrecy was general and overwhelming, so issuing such orders was not needed; the results were obtained by killing those officers who failed to guess properly. You probably want documents for this as well; don't you? When the Russia's President Yeltzin allowed publis access to the Russian documents of the Katyn (not Khatyn) Massacre, the British Government asked him to stop that since some of the facts could be unpleasant for the UK; Nr. Yeltzin complied. Please read books by Wiktor Suvorov , "Aquarium" in the first olace. 142.129.131.22 ( talk) 03:45, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Yeah that's just what I thought, good thing that the edit history of both pages is available for anyone to see
Hello TimothyBlue,
Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.
Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
2023 Awards
Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.
Reminders:

It seems we both may be re-writing the History section at the same time. It would be a pity to duplicate efforts; would you like to collaborate? FYI it's in my sandbox: User:Ttocserp/sandbox Ttocserp 01:02, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Could you please articulate within the ANI thread you started, the reasons why you believe my recent statements to another editor amounted to a personal attack?
Another editor has questioned your assessment, and I think it would assist in resolving the thread if you were to provide a response to their question Jack4576 ( talk) 09:00, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

I overdid slightly here - sorry.
But I'm not breaking any rules - I have a different style of responding to comments in the discussion, which is not against the rules. For some reason you can't accept it and you only get outraged, and made our previours disscusion pointless.
