[edit]

Information icon Hi Hob Gadling! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Félix An (talk) 09:22, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  1. This is about the article, not about me.
  2. Check [1] to find out whether your claim you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article several times is true. It is very obviously not.
You are not welcome on my talk page. Please refrain from editing it in the future. --Hob Gadling (talk) 10:27, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WWI myths

[edit]

Hi, Hob. Thanks for your comment at Talk. I am away with spotty wifi and it’s hard to edit with only my phone, especially for formatted citations. Can you have a look at this and see if you can help out? Thanks. Mathglot (talk) 09:26, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(Don't know how the this works so just gonna post here I guess...) Concerning the Rebecca Watson edit being undone due to "The minimum requirement for using this is that a reliable source mentions it". The citation is her own video where she mentions it herself in 2024! Meaning, she's still doing it to this day! How is that not a reliable source? Or is it that it only happened if someone writes an article/book about it?! Ridiculous! You can watch the video and see it happen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by X2ca (talkcontribs) 20:40, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, she is not a reliable source. It is self-published, and it is WP:PRIMARY. Encyclopedias are not collections of things noticed by you. They are collections of things noticed by secondary sources.
English is written from left to right and from top to bottom. I moved your contribution and added the "unsigned" template. Please read WP:SIGN.
Also, this is not about me, it is about the article, and therefore does not belong here but on the article talk page. --Hob Gadling (talk) 04:53, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know what..

Langley is a reference to? I'm lost with that one [2] Knitsey (talk) 05:54, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea. Dugin is on my watchlist because he is one of many fringe proponents. I reverted because I saw the long PA edit summary, I do not know any details. --Hob Gadling (talk) 05:57, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, OK. Thank you. Knitsey (talk) 05:58, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion on Harold E. Puthoff Talk page about your deletion

[edit]

Since you haven't reverted your deletion of my edit, or responded to my message, I've started an article Talk page topic regarding your deletion. Ghostofnemo (talk) 13:09, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have a watchlist. I do not need such messages on my page. --Hob Gadling (talk) 05:40, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
