Happy to discuss whatever needs discussing.

Retraction of WP:ASPERSIONS please

[edit]

Hello Gannymetis. Could you please withdraw your unfounded accusations of COI and sockpuppetry against me at the Brad Jacobs Talk page? Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 08:37, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MrsSnoozyTurtle I will not retract what I’ve said until you answer each of the questions that I have repeatedly asked, which you have repeatedly ignored. Your behavior on that page has raised reasonable questions and your refusal to answer them has raised even more questions.
You have treated that article like you own what is and is not allowed on it. Similarly, you throw around rules without providing any detailed counterarguments, helpful suggestions or answering any questions. When called out on your obvious bias, you adopt the tactic of changing the subject to tone arguments and splitting hairs re: wiki rules, but you never engaged in substantive debate—which is the entire purpose of a talk page. You accuse others of breaking the rules around sourcing and neutrality while never being accountable yourself. And you have been implementing unsupported, inaccurate edits that don’t pertain to the actual subject and his notability, but instead focus on irrelevant family details.
Here are my questions again for your convenience:
1) Why did you delete the BJ article in 2022––unilaterally, without using an AfD discussion—–on the basis that the subject lacks notability, despite recent, individual media profiles of the subject in iconic media outlets such as TIME, WSJ and Forbes?
2) When your deletion of that page was rightly overturned, you pivoted to micromanaging every detail of the page. Why? You delete lots of pages, but it's rare that you stick around and stay involved to this extent. What is the explanation for your sustained interest in this subject?
3) Re: the three companies of which Jacobs is chairman, why did you delete the RXO article, deface the XPO article and attempt to delete the GXO article?
4) Why did you write that the subject’s wife is “a businessperson whose [sic] has previously been involved in the family investment company” when the reference you used to support that language only says, “eventually Jacobs moved to London (where he met his oil-trader wife)”? Your edit was blatantly, obviously false.
5) Why did you falsely claim that the subject’s wife is involved in “several” food and beverage businesses when the references you included all only mention one food and beverage business? Your edit was again blatantly, obviously not true.
6) Why did you list five references to support the existence of one food and beverage business? Why did you falsely state that each reference supported a different claim?
7) Why did you use low-caliber references like ny.eater.com and dnainfo.com to support your edits when recent profiles of the subject in TIME, WSJ and Forbes weren’t enough to stop you from attempting to delete that page?
Here’s an example of similar behavior from you in a different dispute on The Dado Center for Interdisciplinary Military Studies talk page: (https://wiki.alquds.edu/?query=Talk:The_Dado_Center_for_Interdisciplinary_Military_Studies). You made extremely aggressive changes to that article—–as you have to the Brad Jacobs, XPO, GXO and RXO articles–—without reaching or even asking for consensus from other editors. When called out on your obvious bias, you adopted the same question-dodging tactics you've used here. In the words of user Arminden, “You didn’t offer any counter-arguments that can stand up to scrutiny, but prefer addressing this or that minor disagreement that doesn’t connect in any way to the actual issues.” Why do you consistently dodge or run away from substantive critique of your inappropriate behavior? You demand good faith from other editors, but do you edit in good faith?
You clearly have some form of bias or hidden agenda––or you’re just blindly assuming that everyone except you is incorrect. Gannymetis (talk) 18:35, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Gannymetis. The earlier sections of the Talk Page will answer several of those questions. If you have any further queries after understanding that context, I would be happy to answer them.
In the meantime, I have stated that there are no COI or sockpuppet issues. Therefore, could you please WP:AGF and retract your accusations on the Talk Page? Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 08:05, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You are again stating obvious falsehoods. These questions have not been answered anywhere. Please respond to each of the questions listed above. Gannymetis (talk) 13:45, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
