Then I was forced to face up to the fact that even though (In my youth) I was stopped on sus maybe twice A year I never feared the interaction might lead to my death. That is white privileged, not having to fear the police." Whites are killed by police more than any other race. So clearly interactions between whites and police lead to whites getting killed. Further, Black Harvard professor Roland Fryer did a study showing whites are more likely to be shot by police than non-whites.

Blacks commit **many times** more murder per capita than whites, as well as more murders in terms of absolute numbers. Blacks commit over 60% of the total murder. And given they're only 13% of the population, it is also significantly times higher on a per capita basis. ::::2) Blacks commit more mass shootings than white supremacists. Most mass shootings are done by blacks. He can say whatever he wants, but we have actual numbers on this. ::::3) The number of unarmed blacks shot & killed by police in any given year is about 10-20.

[[User:Slatersteven|Slatersteven]] ([[User talk:Slatersteven#top|talk]]) 11:39, 20 April 2023 (UTC) ::I'd disagree with that assessment of ill links. When I can read them, it's helpful; when I can't, Google Translate usually can. In either case, an ill link is superior to a red link (which was there when I added the ill) as it can provide some additional information and can spur those do read the language to consider adding an article here (assuming the subject meets [[WP:N]]).

They are used to collate lists of articles that do not exist at en-wikipedia but should, as measured by the redlinks, and can easily be created by someone, as measured by the language links. They are not trivial to set up, and every time you delete one a wikiangel cries over the loss of other editors' constructive work. If the color of the links offends you perhaps someone could produce a hack that hides them from you or even globally turns them some other color, just for you.

Interlanguage links are a very good tool, and should be used more, per [[WP:RED]] and like. If you don't want to add them, you don't have too (it takes some wiki literacy skills) but removing them is, well, vandalism. I hope you don't mind me saying so, I respect the good work you do in many areas of this project, but, pretty please with the cherry on top, do not remove ill templates from articles. A few weeks ago I had to "waste" a good hour of my time restoring ill links that another well-intentioned editor removed from an article, making it less informative.

You are saying I need consensus to write according to the four sources cited right next to the sentence, confirming the city's capture by May 21st, while you do not need consensus for the sentence you wrote, based on your personal interpretation of that one source, which doesn't even say what you wrote?

[[User:EkoGraf|EkoGraf]] ([[User talk:EkoGraf|talk]]) 20:02, 4 June 2023 (UTC) :Yes, as others have already argued against it (and see the RFC, they still are).

[[User:Slatersteven|Slatersteven]] ([[User talk:Slatersteven#top|talk]]) 11:17, 5 June 2023 (UTC) ::The RFC is whether the battle is over, not if the city has been captured or not, there is a big difference between the two. And the only source that disagrees is the Ukrainian military (as a belligerent not reliable) which claims, mind you, to hold an "insignificant" part in the city's southwestern outskirts, which is also already noted in the infobox. While even Ukrainian sources such as the Kyiv independent, beside a multitude of RS outlets, confirm the city has been captured. An ongoing battle and a city captured are not the same. In any case, writing its only Russia that is claiming the capture of the city, while the cited RS outlets are confirming in their own capacity the city's capture, is a missrepresantation of the cited sources however you want to put it.

The battle does not include just the capture of the city, but the fighting around the city as well. And as far as I have seen at the RFC, nobody is actually denying the capture of the city. In fact, a number of editors who are saying at the RFC the battle is ongoing are actually acknowledging the city's capture. And the main argument of those who are saying the battle is not over is that clashes continue outside the city, despite its capture. By your logic, the battle did not start August 1st 2022, when the Russian offensive through the nearby villages started, but when they actually penetrated into the city, which was much later.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Contentious_topics/India,_Pakistan,_and_Afghanistan]. From an afD, I found a really facinating article about temples in India, added sourced information that seems extremely neutral, but it was immediately yanked by someone for being biased. I wanted to think through it by discussing, and posted on Tea to get recommendation on who to talk it through with and... "I'm pretty sure there isn't a cabal to erase this person's life off Wikipedia." And it was dismissive. That was the point, to hand waive the problem away and say "it's actually not a problem at all, you're paranoid!". Yet, It's such a big issue it was a topic of the Arbitration committee! I've decided to let it wait, educate myself more on the topic, and approach it at a future date. With the "Groomer" issue: We have one side using the slur groomer "along with ambiguous messaging to characterize LGBT people as pedophiles." Obviously, the point is to smear the opponent. They say the don't mean pedophile then turn around and use the term. Their opponents respond to them by hand waiving it and saying "oh it's just a conspiracy theory like QANON". Both of these positions are political positions. Neither position is a neutral, unbiased position. We need to find a title that is neutral. [[WP:NPOV]] Neutral Point of View is a pillar of Wikipedia: '''Wikipedia "describes disputes, but does not engage in them."''' Hence, I am attempting to find common ground and would appreciate you approaching discussion with that goal in mind.

Groomer has a lot of uses (including as an insult) and thus is a separate topic form the conspiracy theory about LGBT people, as well as their allies and progressives in general, of systematically using LGBT sex education and campaigns for LGBT rights as a method of child grooming and enabling pedophilia.

Literally every single source out there reflects what actually happened, why the Sun ran that story. The parents wanted their son to stop allegedly buying crack cocaine. Huw Edwards was allegedly funding his habit. This is all reliably sourced, impeccably so. The BLP and RS objections are complete garbage, the usual wikilawyering games. If not plain incompetence. The reason why Wikipedia wants to reflect only half the story is clear to all who know the basics. Wikipedia is biased. Because it is made by people like you, and the people who are theoretically meant to stop you, the Black Kites, are even more biased. It doesn't take long for anyone to realize this. You must think people are complete tools if you disagree. You surely cannot be unaware that is people like you, probably you specifically in a very big way, who are the reason Wikipedia's brand value is falling among young people. They don't recommend Wikipedia because it is so screamingly obviously riven with an agenda. People are getting fired at the WMF because donations are down.

You are saying I need consensus to write according to the four sources cited right next to the sentence, confirming the city's capture by May 21st, while you do not need consensus for the sentence you wrote, based on your personal interpretation of that one source, which doesn't even say what you wrote?

[[User:EkoGraf|EkoGraf]] ([[User talk:EkoGraf|talk]]) 20:02, 4 June 2023 (UTC) :Yes, as others have already argued against it (and see the RFC, they still are).

[[User:Slatersteven|Slatersteven]] ([[User talk:Slatersteven#top|talk]]) 11:17, 5 June 2023 (UTC) ::The RFC is whether the battle is over, not if the city has been captured or not, there is a big difference between the two. And the only source that disagrees is the Ukrainian military (as a belligerent not reliable) which claims, mind you, to hold an "insignificant" part in the city's southwestern outskirts, which is also already noted in the infobox. While even Ukrainian sources such as the Kyiv independent, beside a multitude of RS outlets, confirm the city has been captured. An ongoing battle and a city captured are not the same. In any case, writing its only Russia that is claiming the capture of the city, while the cited RS outlets are confirming in their own capacity the city's capture, is a missrepresantation of the cited sources however you want to put it.

The battle does not include just the capture of the city, but the fighting around the city as well. And as far as I have seen at the RFC, nobody is actually denying the capture of the city. In fact, a number of editors who are saying at the RFC the battle is ongoing are actually acknowledging the city's capture. And the main argument of those who are saying the battle is not over is that clashes continue outside the city, despite its capture. By your logic, the battle did not start August 1st 2022, when the Russian offensive through the nearby villages started, but when they actually penetrated into the city, which was much later. [[User:EkoGraf|EkoGraf]] ([[User talk:EkoGraf|talk]]) 15:33, 5 June 2023 (UTC) :::::But like I said, if you want to misrepresent what RS are saying (haven't seen one RS denying the city's capture), go right ahead.

Yet you continue to post the same arguments over and over again (in essence "this is how I interpret it" (by the way the only use of the word interpret in [[wp:rs]] is discussing quotations, we are not using any). It does not matter how many times you tell people "I am right", what matters (only and solely) is you have RS that say (exactly, see [[wp:v]]) what you say.

A favorite quote of mine: '''The difference between a discussion and a debate is that a debate has a "Winner". A discussion is different, because each person leaves the conversation with additional knowledge giving them a better informed opinion.''' You might be aware there is a lot of edit warring over topics involving South Asia, with many passionate users with strong opinions. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Contentious_topics/India,_Pakistan,_and_Afghanistan]. From an afD, I found a really facinating article about temples in India, added sourced information that seems extremely neutral, but it was immediately yanked by someone for being biased. I wanted to think through it by discussing, and posted on Tea to get recommendation on who to talk it through with and... "I'm pretty sure there isn't a cabal to erase this person's life off Wikipedia." And it was dismissive. That was the point, to hand waive the problem away and say "it's actually not a problem at all, you're paranoid!". Yet, It's such a big issue it was a topic of the Arbitration committee! I've decided to let it wait, educate myself more on the topic, and approach it at a future date. With the "Groomer" issue: We have one side using the slur groomer "along with ambiguous messaging to characterize LGBT people as pedophiles." Obviously, the point is to smear the opponent. They say the don't mean pedophile then turn around and use the term. Their opponents respond to them by hand waiving it and saying "oh it's just a conspiracy theory like QANON". Both of these positions are political positions. Neither position is a neutral, unbiased position. We need to find a title that is neutral. [[WP:NPOV]] Neutral Point of View is a pillar of Wikipedia: '''Wikipedia "describes disputes, but does not engage in them."''' Hence, I am attempting to find common ground and would appreciate you approaching discussion with that goal in mind.

Groomer has a lot of uses (including as an insult) and thus is a separate topic form the conspiracy theory about LGBT people, as well as their allies and progressives in general, of systematically using LGBT sex education and campaigns for LGBT rights as a method of child grooming and enabling pedophilia.

Literally every single source out there reflects what actually happened, why the Sun ran that story. The parents wanted their son to stop allegedly buying crack cocaine. Huw Edwards was allegedly funding his habit. This is all reliably sourced, impeccably so. The BLP and RS objections are complete garbage, the usual wikilawyering games. If not plain incompetence. The reason why Wikipedia wants to reflect only half the story is clear to all who know the basics. Wikipedia is biased. Because it is made by people like you, and the people who are theoretically meant to stop you, the Black Kites, are even more biased. It doesn't take long for anyone to realize this. You must think people are complete tools if you disagree. You surely cannot be unaware that is people like you, probably you specifically in a very big way, who are the reason Wikipedia's brand value is falling among young people. They don't recommend Wikipedia because it is so screamingly obviously riven with an agenda. People are getting fired at the WMF because donations are down. Eventually you might not have a website to get whatever it is you get from talking complete nonsense. Wouldn't that be the own goal of all own goals?

You are saying I need consensus to write according to the four sources cited right next to the sentence, confirming the city's capture by May 21st, while you do not need consensus for the sentence you wrote, based on your personal interpretation of that one source, which doesn't even say what you wrote? Guess logic and neutrality are really gone on Wikipedia since the start of the Ukraine war, thanks for reminding me why I generally have given up on it. Have it your way, cheers! [[User:EkoGraf|EkoGraf]] ([[User talk:EkoGraf|talk]]) 20:02, 4 June 2023 (UTC) :Yes, as others have already argued against it (and see the RFC, they still are). As I pointed out, there are sources that disagree. [[User:Slatersteven|Slatersteven]] ([[User talk:Slatersteven#top|talk]]) 11:17, 5 June 2023 (UTC) ::The RFC is whether the battle is over, not if the city has been captured or not, there is a big difference between the two. And the only source that disagrees is the Ukrainian military (as a belligerent not reliable) which claims, mind you, to hold an "insignificant" part in the city's southwestern outskirts, which is also already noted in the infobox. While even Ukrainian sources such as the Kyiv independent, beside a multitude of RS outlets, confirm the city has been captured. An ongoing battle and a city captured are not the same. In any case, writing its only Russia that is claiming the capture of the city, while the cited RS outlets are confirming in their own capacity the city's capture, is a missrepresantation of the cited sources however you want to put it.

The battle does not include just the capture of the city, but the fighting around the city as well. And as far as I have seen at the RFC, nobody is actually denying the capture of the city. In fact, a number of editors who are saying at the RFC the battle is ongoing are actually acknowledging the city's capture. And the main argument of those who are saying the battle is not over is that clashes continue outside the city, despite its capture. By your logic, the battle did not start August 1st 2022, when the Russian offensive through the nearby villages started, but when they actually penetrated into the city, which was much later. [[User:EkoGraf|EkoGraf]] ([[User talk:EkoGraf|talk]]) 15:33, 5 June 2023 (UTC) :::::But like I said, if you want to misrepresent what RS are saying (haven't seen one RS denying the city's capture), go right ahead.

The drive completed with '''23851''' reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to '''0''' (momentarily). Congratulations to {{Noping|Hey man im josh}} who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by {{noping|Meena}} and {{noping|Greyzxq}} with 2868 and 2546 points respectively.

They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in [[beta test]] where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of [[Special:NewPagesFeed]], to help find bugs. We will post more details at [[WT:NPPR]] when we are ready for beta testers.

To find drafts to review, visit [[Special:NewPagesFeed]], and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script. You can review the AFC workflow at [[WP:AFCR]]. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that [[WP:DRAFTOBJECT|draftspace is optional]], so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

A favorite quote of mine: '''The difference between a discussion and a debate is that a debate has a "Winner". A discussion is different, because each person leaves the conversation with additional knowledge giving them a better informed opinion.''' You might be aware there is a lot of edit warring over topics involving South Asia, with many passionate users with strong opinions. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Contentious_topics/India,_Pakistan,_and_Afghanistan]. From an afD, I found a really facinating article about temples in India, added sourced information that seems extremely neutral, but it was immediately yanked by someone for being biased. I wanted to think through it by discussing, and posted on Tea to get recommendation on who to talk it through with and... "I'm pretty sure there isn't a cabal to erase this person's life off Wikipedia." And it was dismissive. That was the point, to hand waive the problem away and say "it's actually not a problem at all, you're paranoid!". Yet, It's such a big issue it was a topic of the Arbitration committee! I've decided to let it wait, educate myself more on the topic, and approach it at a future date. With the "Groomer" issue: We have one side using the slur groomer "along with ambiguous messaging to characterize LGBT people as pedophiles." Obviously, the point is to smear the opponent. They say the don't mean pedophile then turn around and use the term. Their opponents respond to them by hand waiving it and saying "oh it's just a conspiracy theory like QANON". Both of these positions are political positions. Neither position is a neutral, unbiased position. We need to find a title that is neutral. [[WP:NPOV]] Neutral Point of View is a pillar of Wikipedia: '''Wikipedia "describes disputes, but does not engage in them."'''
