Propagande terroriste

Main page: User_talk:Panam2014 § WP:NLT

Salut

Puisque vous êtes là, bien que les lois US soient plus laxistes que les françaises, on a le précédent du cas de Al Manar TV qui prouve que l'apologie du terrorisme est illégale quand elle incite à commettre des actes. Et donc par analogie vu que le Hezbollah est moins dangereux que Daech bien qu'il est terroriste, et que c'est interdit de propager ses médias, c'est la même pour les radios daechiennes. Panam2014 (talk) 19:11, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merci, mais il vaut mieux éviter de disperser les discussions: je lis le Bistro de fr et j'ai évidemment parcouru la section pertinente de votre PDDU sur en:.
Je n'ai pas d'avis sur le fond de la question (comme souvent, mon intervention sur ce sujet s'est limitée à renvoyer à ce que disaient d'autres gens), mais sur la procédure j'avais l'impression que c'était à tort qu'on vous reprochait (sur en:) une menace de procédure judiciaire ?
Par ailleurs, Meta est peut-être un meilleur endroit que fr: (pourquoi cette Wikipédia-ci en particulier ?) pour demander de l'aide ?
Apokrif (talk) 19:40, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Le blocage indef pour menace de poursuites judiciaires existe même sur fr:wiki. Or ce n'est pas le cas. Donc je suppose qu'il s'agit plutôt qu'un quiproquo mais du coup si j'ai menacé personne donc j'ai pas à retirer mes propos. Si vous pouviez l'expliquer à l'admin.

Jules a démenti l'équation avec l'IP proxy qui a semé la zizanie. Je ne sais pas quelle serait la solution ici. Surtout qu'il peut s'agir d'un bannissement WMF.

Speedy deletion nomination of CryptoNight

A tag has been placed on CryptoNight requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Black Mirror character redirects

Hi Apokrif! Thanks for creating character redirects such as Liam Monroe and Victoria Skillane. However, I noticed you undid my edit here. Can you explain why? — Bilorv (talk) 16:54, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote that Liam Monroe goes to the same place as The Waldo Moment, which is wrong because the former is an anchored link. Apokrif (talk) 21:08, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I saw the anchor you added. But it's not an anchor to a section in a "List of characters" page, or even a paragraph (or sentence!) that's about Monroe. It's just a summary of the plot. This is a problem of MOS:EASTEREGG and MOS:DUPLINK: the link should match the reader's expectations ("I am being taken to content that describes who Monroe is") and not substantially duplicate an already-given link. — Bilorv (talk) 21:30, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"the reader's expectations ("I am being taken to content that describes who Monroe is": that's what the anchored link does :-) It's not an Easter egg: clicking on that character's name brings you to the text about that character, so you don't have to scroll the whole Waldo article to find who Monroe is. Apokrif (talk) 21:45, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's not useful to have, as here, two links in the same row of a table, the first to the top paragraph of an article and the second to the second paragraph of the same article. I'm saying that it's an Easter egg because I did not expect to be taken to where the link points to. — Bilorv (talk) 11:16, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get your point. Liam Monroe should be expected to bring the reader to text about Monroe. Apokrif (talk) 17:52, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Speedy deletion nomination of Joseph Liebgott

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Joseph Liebgott requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joseph Liebgott. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Apokrif. Thank you for your work on TWINT. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Creating a separate article from the long-standing redirect looks like a very helpful step. The recent translation from parts of the German article has also been helpful, and it does look like this is a viable page.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

AMGN moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, AMGN, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Please leave the Oversight policy alone

It's nice that you've decided (without discussion) to create a whole new category related to Oversight. Your personal preferences don't override longstanding community agreement on what categories this policy should be under. If you want, add your category. Don't remove other ones. Thanks. Risker (talk) 02:46, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't remove a relevant category again. See also WP:BOLD. Apokrif (talk) 02:48, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you should go back and re-read WP:Be bold. It tells you not to be upset if your boldness is reverted. It tells you to be careful when dealing with policies. Often, these things have been worked out over a long period. Your category is on shaky ground, at best; it sounds like one that belongs in article namespace, not Wikipedia namespace. Risker (talk) 03:00, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IIRC the use of the Wikipedia: prefix for category names is unfortunately not recommended (although I used this prefix on the French Wikipedia as I find it useful for the reason you mention). Feel free to rename the category to a clearer (meta-looking) name if possible! Apokrif (talk) 03:39, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was about to template you for being a disruptive editor until I realized you had tens of thousands of edits over decades. If I still had my tools I'd block you, and I think Risker is being generous for not doing so. Please stop. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:06, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Which disruption? Apokrif (talk) 03:40, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That would be the unexplained removal of categories on the page. Yes, you need to explain that when you are doing it. Risker (talk) 03:45, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I explained it: redundant with the categorization of a category the page is in. Apokrif (talk) 03:47, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, but it is NOT redundant, except for your own personal actions. Now, let's talk about Category:Wikipedia_oversighters. I'm going to ask that it be deleted. Because when you look at the list of users and select "oversighters", you get the current list, based on actual user permissions, instead of a category that requires constant maintenance. Not only that, but the maintained list of oversighters is over in the functionaries templates. It's a curated list already. You're making work for other people by creating these categories, and creating categories that are duplicates of information that is available in a better, completely up-to-date format elsewhere. Risker (talk) 03:52, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"category that requires constant maintenance": if that's what worries you, I don't intend to include each oversighter in the category I created. Perhaps you mixed

Category:Wikipedia oversighters up with Category:Wikipedia oversight? Apokrif (talk) 04:28, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Valid point. Poked around, the "oversighters" category (and its parallel, the "checkusers" category) were created before SUL, when they may have made sense, but they're of more harm than good today when they're not maintained. (I've put them both up for deletion.) Perhaps the non-personal pages may be useful in Category:Oversight. Risker (talk) 04:49, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, Aprokrif, I think perhaps it would be best to rename the category you created to Category:English Wikipedia Oversight (note the capitalization of "Oversight" because the lower case isn't specific to the user permission). Do you have any objection? If that's good with you, then I'll move the few non-OS category members over to that category. Risker (talk) 05:03, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
