April 2024

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:00, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the last ten minutes you've made two edits to The New York Times, the first removing 48k from the page and the second removing 33k from the page, neither of which were with edit summaries. You have been warned repeatedly for this before. If you make any more edits to The New York Times or its child articles without using an edit summary, I will be bringing you to a behavioural noticeboard. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:02, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Sideswipe9th--you just beat me to it. I was also wondering whether to just hit rollback on those huge changes. Is this editor of good faith? Are they improving the article? I remember having looked at this before, and I think you've pinged me from the talk page at some point--but what I also see is significant pushback against their comments and edits. (FWIW I think the article is inflated and needs pruning, but that's another matter.) Drmies (talk) 17:05, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: it's really hard to tell. From a skim Elijah has removed at least 80k of sources from the article in the last ten minutes. Now it's possible these sources were unused in the article body, in which case these edits would be an improvement, but without a substantial time investment to verify each one by hand due to the lack of justification in an edit summary it's nigh-on impossible to tell. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:10, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That said, given Elijah's laundry list of issues with this article and its sub-articles, including recently changing the scope of one of the history of articles, and then creating another one, against the pre-existing consensus that Elijah contributed to, it's really hard to consider Elijah's edits in good faith here. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:13, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removing unused references is not in good faith, apparently. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:15, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is this editor of good faith? Are they improving the article? I remember having looked at this before, and I think you've pinged me from the talk page at some point--but what I also see is significant pushback against their comments and edits. I think I may have pinged you before, @Drmies. But we've repeatedly circled around the same thing for the last couple months. Elijah makes edits without consensus or summaries, people discuss, elijah ignores it/promises to fix things. Repeat the cycle N days later.

I'm currently quite burnt out on this article, but it's impossible to make any progress with things when this keeps happening. Last time landed us in ANI with no actual changes. So we had a full consensus of "These are options for how to split article, please discuss" to not repeat that. A few weeks later, Elijah again ignores the decision to do his own thing (for presumably GA credits).

At this point, does good faith matter if they're very clearly making things worse for every other editor? I genuinely do not know. I do know that I'm all out of patience for Elijah's antics. Soni (talk) 17:17, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rest assured that I won't edit the Times article if making beneficial changes warrants a noticeboard. I planned on expanding a few sections today; that clearly won't be happening.elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:05, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Elijah, without an edit summary we don't know this edit is beneficial. How do we distinguish this from someone blanking an article or article sections? Do you know how long it takes to read through multiple diffs of this length? You have been warned on this multiple times, by multiple editors. Why are you not using edit summaries? Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:07, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Never had to use them before. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:11, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have been warned before. I don't know why you would think you can make truly massive edits without explaining; surely you've noticed that this is a collaborative project. And you are still not explaining what you are doing--Sideswipe9th, if you want to roll these back, go for it. I have no clue why they removed those sources. Drmies (talk) 17:15, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't even make edits that have nothing to do with content to remove references that weren't used and added size to the article, the exact issue everyone is attempting to resolve. Stopping others from doing their work is not beneficial. I'm disappointed that I couldn't expand the article and that it will likely remain in its state for months, if not years. If everyone is pressuring me to quit editing altogether—attempting to get me blocked—maybe I should consider that option. I've already stated that the work there is no longer mine. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:23, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've been following this on-and-off since I saw you were working on improving the article for The New York Times, and I hope you understand that no one here wants to chase you away from editing about The Times, or from the project entirely. The issue is your attitude towards collaboration in general, and it's manifested here because this is an article many people care about. If you use edit summaries and engage substantively in discussion when challenged, there won't be any sort of problem. Please, please, just listen to other people when they give you feedback about your edits. The community is not out to get you; we just want to collaborate. Elli (talk | contribs) 21:31, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: I honestly dunno. If they are actually unused references, then removing them is fine. But the underlying behavioural problems here, ignoring consensus, ignoring the reasons why he was repeatedly warned and blocked previously, those need some sort of admin response I feel. All of this, my warning, your talk page discussion, could have been entirely avoided if Elijah had done what he was supposed to do, and used an edit summary with each of those edits. Something that he knows or should know he should be doing, because he's been blocked before for not using them. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:24, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As you well know, you were warned for this exact behaviour at the start of February, the article was then fully protected for a week because you continued to do this and edit war, and you were then blocked at the end of February for the same behaviour. Saying you've never had to use them before is frankly insulting to all of us here, given your recent behavioural history on this article. Sideswipe9th (talk) 17:18, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like you're still not using edit summaries in most of your edits. Is there a reason for that? -- Mikeblas (talk) 23:39, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Proposed merger of Paramount Global and Skydance Media

The article Proposed merger of Paramount Global and Skydance Media has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable, especially without having actually happened.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — Moriwen (talk) 23:28, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

False titles

The sentence "the former United States president Donald Trump" is grammatically correct. If it were not the sentence "the American television show The Walking Dead" would also be grammatically incorrect. Clearly it is not; it is a perfectly ordinary sentence.

I encourage you to read about false titles and journalese. Wikipedia is not an American news website; we do not use false titles and shorthands to sensationalise the content of an article. It is also not a newspaper; we do not use them to save space, either.

All the best. Keeper of Albion (talk) 11:14, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey! Just telling you here that Death of Ismail Haniyeh, a page you made, has been merged with Assassination of Ismail Haniyeh as both articles were created at the same time, simply because the later was bigger. Have a good day! win8x (talking | spying) 03:20, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Please note that Killing of Ismail Haniyeh is subject to 1RR, as it is within the scope of WP:PIA.

03:46, 31 July 2024 (reverts this edit)

I understand that articles on rapidly developing events can be chaotic and can lead to back-and-forth reverting at rates that are higher than typical for stable articles. However, please keep in mind that this sort of thing is a bit more strictly handled in the Arab-Israeli conflict area than it is in other areas.

2024 stock market decline

Hello, ElijahPepe,

Please do not create all of these articles that are just a blip on the nightly news. They seem to get tagged for an AFD discussion within a day and many of them are deleted. It's a waste of editors' time debating them. Have a better filter and only create articles on events that have lasting significance. That typically takes more than a few hours or a day to determine this. You aren't getting bonus points from creating these articles so quickly, in fact, it is damaging your reputation if the current AFD is any indication. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

October 2024 Israeli retaliation against Iran

Hi! I saw the article October 2024 Israeli retaliation against Iran you created in the New Pages Queue. As it is for now only speculation about what Israel might do in retaliation, I'm afraid it would fall under WP:CRYSTAL and be a bit too soon for an article to be created before it actually happens. Thanks for your understanding! Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 15:06, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tesla Network

You are the crator of the article Tesla Network. I subsequently added content and attempted to improve that article. The article has now been AfD'd for potential merging into Tesla Cybercab.

I am not expert on this, but I am pretty sure Tesla has been talking about this "network" and their own ride-hailing service—that would be exclusive/proprietary to them for Tesla vehicles using Tesla self-driving software—for some years now. I would expect that there are references to this in old quarterly calls, or in one or more of the "investor days" or "battery days" that they've held as public events.

So if you want the article to remain, you may want to find some of those sources and improve the Tesla Network article with a fuller/richer and longer history of the concept, and with more sources talking about it. Cheers. N2e (talk) 03:10, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I want to be careful about what I say. However, I can state that Tesla is working on a ride-hailing service that is intended to be integrated into the app. Musk has mentioned this several times, including his second Master Plan. The plan is to have a fleet of vehicles, including existing models, that can autonomously function as Ubers. As far as I know, "Tesla Network" is a placeholder name. I'm not against merging the article because the topic has no coverage, but I created it in order to maintain an article about the Robovan. I am aware that specific details about Tesla's network have been publicly stated. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 04:08, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not against merging the article because the topic has no coverage, but I created it in order to maintain an article about the Robovan. a) you shouldn't create articles on topics with no coverage. b) what do you mean you "created it in order to maintain an article about the Robovan"? you've already created a separate article about the Tesla Robovan, which is a two-sentence stub that doesn't at all demonstrate notability. once again i'm going to ask you to stop making articles about current events (and future events) with no indication of any lasting significance. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 15:31, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't create the article on the Robovan. I created a redirect that Bdebbarma converted into an article, which I disagree with. I created Tesla Network to have an article to include information about the Robovan as part of the fleet of Tesla robotaxis. At the time, I believed that there was more to discuss—in other words, information about the Tesla Network would emerge. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 15:36, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

apologies for assuming you made the article about the Robovan. however, the rest of my comment stands - please just use draftspace. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 15:42, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It seems reasonable enough here to redirect Tesla Network and merge Tesla Robovan into Tesla Inc. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 20:50, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Queen of Hearts: Looking at this AfD nomination from 7 November 2024, I think ElijahPepe may have drawn the wrong conclusions from that ANI discussion? Renerpho (talk) 11:30, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
