Hello Ritchie333
I'm the editor who opened the dispute resolution case. Is there anything I should do? AbleGus, reverted my most recent edits, again using the same arguments. I'm not familiar with the protocol for this, so please excuse if I'm not proceeding correctly.Regards, Cheryl Fullerton ( talk) 18:55, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
Hello Ritchie333
Thank you for taking the time to unjam the "logjam" that has occurred on the Jefferson Starship article. I agree with your comments, in particular comment #3. I have been attempting for several years to add more balance to this article, and other related articles, and less POV, but AbleGus has dismissed my efforts consistently and immediately for the most part. In one instance when another editor intervened, at my request, I was able to get a sentence or two about lead guitarist, Chaquico, into the article. I would like to see a lot more about other members of the original band included, their contributions, and the musical contributions of the band Jefferson Starship both pre-1984 and post-1992, but I have so far been unable to succeed due to this particular editor’s resistance.
I appreciate your effort to rewrite the introduction also; however, because of the article’s content, there are inaccuracies. Based on your explanation of how the article should be written, I see that I must correct the inaccuracies in the article first. I assume you’ve read the intro that I wrote and was reverted by AbleGus and because the intro/summary was not based on the content of the article is the reason my introduction should be used?
I really appreciate the time and energy you put into reviewing my case. If you have any other comments or suggestion for me to help me provide some neutrality to this article, please advise.Regards, Cheryl Fullerton ( talk) 17:59, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
Perhaps, it was Grace Slick? Might have had some NOPV problems with that? Cheryl Fullerton ( talk) 20:37, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
One of the problems with this article is that it has been an unbalanced focus on Slick, Kantner, and Jefferson Airplane history, rather than a focus on Jefferson Starship history which was a different band, though it included some of the same members as Jefferson Airplane.
You probably read my version of the lead, but I'll post it again to get your feedback. I think it is more balanced and neutral.
Jefferson Starship Jefferson Starship is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1974. Founding members included former members of the band, Jefferson Airplane, namely rhythm guitarist, Paul Kantner and lead vocalist, Grace Slick, along with late-stage Airplane members drummer Johny Barbata, electric violinist Papa John Creach and keyboardist/bass player David Freiberg. Lead guitarist, Craig Chaquico and keyboardist/bass player Pete Sears rounded out the original band. In 1975, another former Jefferson Airplane member, Marty Balin, joined the group on lead vocals.[2][3] The bands greatest commercial success was between 1974 and 1984, when it released eight gold, platinum and double-platinum studio albums, a gold-selling greatest hits album and had nine top forty singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including among others, "Miracles," "With Your Love," "Count on Me," "Runaway," "Jane," "Find Your Way Back," and "No Way Out."[4][5]
In 1985, after Paul Kantner left the band, the remaining members of the band at that time, Grace Slick, Craig Chaquico, David Freiberg, Pete Sears, drummer Donny Baldwin and vocalist Mickey Thomas, continued on as Starship, releasing three No. 1 singles,” “We Built This City,” “Sara," and “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now.” Starship was officially retired in 1991.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]
In the early ‘90s, Paul Kantner began using the moniker “Jefferson Starship” again with a "rotating cast" of side members, while Mickey Thomas established his own band under the name, “Starship featuring Mickey Thomas.”[15][16] Since his death in 2017, Kantner’s remaining band members have continued to tour under the name “Jefferson Starship."[17][18]
Let me know what you think. Regards, Cheryl Fullerton ( talk) 20:57, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

I'm using sub-UTP to conduct NPP training, and dummy that I am for not thinking ahead (so unlike me), I moved NPP training3 to NPP trainingCW, then copy-pasted it into this archive. The lame reason I did it that way was because one-click archiver was adding the training sessions to my main User talk page archives. I am open to suggestions as to how best to fix this mess, and if you don't have time or are not technically inclined, do you know who I can ask? My prior go-to was RexxS, 😢.

Hello Ritchie you helped prior with the American Descendants of Slavery page. They altered it again inacurately today. I put in a editor assistance request and would prefer if you reviewed. /info/en/?search=American_Descendants_of_Slavery
We are having repetitive issues where editors are changing the wikipedia for American Descendants of Slavery to omit information and present the group inaccurately. Editor Ritchie333 had to correct this prior just two months ago.
On the about just today three hours ago an editor omitted information about one founders Antonio Moore contributing on a progressive site and left information about the other to misrepresent information. They also restructured the page as not about but a biased slander. We have attempted using the talk page and it is ignored. Please have the page reverted to what it was prior to the revisions that make biased omissions to misrepresent the group. The page should be reverted and locked. They also added slanted information about singular statements that shouldn't be on a group page. They changed the whole page and now it isn't a description of the group. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnways21145 ( talk • contribs) 21:02, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the prompt reply. The page is now more of a blog with the goal of making ADOS appear right wing. It has left the line about Southern Poverty and omitted the clearly sourced mention of Moore writing at Inequality.org Here is the source. Its their actual site. https://inequality.org/authors/antonio-moore/. You can omit both but not one and not the other.
Also, there are inaccuracies of added information on the page now. The source doesn't say what the editor asserted. It said "They say" this is basically the editor effectively piecing together material to make their own argument that is not in the source. This is the quote "They say calling Harris “African American,”..." and the writer is ambiguous to the source of that "they" it is inaccurate.
The editor added this but there is no support. "In one video, Moore criticized Kamala Harris and asserted that she was not "African American" (Harris's father is Jamaican American); the claim was amplified by right-wing figures, including Donald Trump Jr..[" There is no source to support this discussion. And now what the editor did is took one wash post article and made sections off this one article. The prevalence section added is from this same article. As is the misquoted citation.
In addition, now the page both tries to frame the group as small and right-wing which is not for a description page about page. It took citation 5 that the recent editor added and embedded it as the page in all senses. The prior version of the page is a basic description that leaves all assessments to the reception section properly.
I have added a talk page request. This editor despite expertise took one article from the post 12 months ago and made nearly the whole wikpedia page. That is not appropriate. In addition they made up quotes that are not in the article as I mentioned above. There’s no problem adding critiques in the reception here they made the about us a biased inaccurate critique from one source. When there was already a fair page up.

Hi
You undid revision 1017272186 (in which I added a pic of storm damage in 2002). You said
"I think that puts in too many images, try a category on Common".
Which I did, thanks for suggestion, put in Brighton West Pier between 1975 and 2004
[I'm a virtual beginner to wikipedia, BTW, so apologies for beginners questions]
First: is there a rule about "too many" pics? Can't find one.
I'd like to see an image of storm damage as well as fire in the "Decline and damage" part of the West Pier page.
I read through MOS:LAYIM. Would best option be to use a two-image gallery, or create a sub category of Brighton West Pier between 1975 and 2004 and reference it?
Not particularly excited by image I used, maybe another in would be better, e.g. West_Pier_Remains.JPG?
I don't feel competent to make any further changes to page: will leave it to your judgement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EntropyReduction ( talk • contribs) 15:10, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi Ritchie333 - you reverted my edit to West Pier on the grounds that it is still there (or 'what's left of it'). Perhaps it comes down to semantics but I would not describe a derelict metal skeleton isolated several hundred feet out from the shore at sea as being an extant pier. It is to all intents and purpose a former pier and warrants use of the word 'was'. I don't intend getting into further debate but don't you think that to introduce it as something that still exists as a pier is to mislead the reader? cheers Geopersona ( talk) 07:34, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

I'm using sub-UTP to conduct NPP training, and dummy that I am for not thinking ahead (so unlike me), I moved NPP training3 to NPP trainingCW, then copy-pasted it into this archive. The lame reason I did it that way was because one-click archiver was adding the training sessions to my main User talk page archives. I am open to suggestions as to how best to fix this mess, and if you don't have time or are not technically inclined, do you know who I can ask? My prior go-to was RexxS, 😢.

Hello Ritchie you helped prior with the American Descendants of Slavery page. They altered it again inacurately today. I put in a editor assistance request and would prefer if you reviewed. /info/en/?search=American_Descendants_of_Slavery
We are having repetitive issues where editors are changing the wikipedia for American Descendants of Slavery to omit information and present the group inaccurately. Editor Ritchie333 had to correct this prior just two months ago.
On the about just today three hours ago an editor omitted information about one founders Antonio Moore contributing on a progressive site and left information about the other to misrepresent information. They also restructured the page as not about but a biased slander. We have attempted using the talk page and it is ignored. Please have the page reverted to what it was prior to the revisions that make biased omissions to misrepresent the group. The page should be reverted and locked. They also added slanted information about singular statements that shouldn't be on a group page. They changed the whole page and now it isn't a description of the group. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnways21145 ( talk • contribs) 21:02, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the prompt reply. The page is now more of a blog with the goal of making ADOS appear right wing. It has left the line about Southern Poverty and omitted the clearly sourced mention of Moore writing at Inequality.org Here is the source. Its their actual site. https://inequality.org/authors/antonio-moore/. You can omit both but not one and not the other.
Also, there are inaccuracies of added information on the page now. The source doesn't say what the editor asserted. It said "They say" this is basically the editor effectively piecing together material to make their own argument that is not in the source. This is the quote "They say calling Harris “African American,”..." and the writer is ambiguous to the source of that "they" it is inaccurate.
The editor added this but there is no support. "In one video, Moore criticized Kamala Harris and asserted that she was not "African American" (Harris's father is Jamaican American); the claim was amplified by right-wing figures, including Donald Trump Jr..[" There is no source to support this discussion. And now what the editor did is took one wash post article and made sections off this one article. The prevalence section added is from this same article. As is the misquoted citation.
In addition, now the page both tries to frame the group as small and right-wing which is not for a description page about page. It took citation 5 that the recent editor added and embedded it as the page in all senses. The prior version of the page is a basic description that leaves all assessments to the reception section properly.
I have added a talk page request. This editor despite expertise took one article from the post 12 months ago and made nearly the whole wikpedia page. That is not appropriate. In addition they made up quotes that are not in the article as I mentioned above. There’s no problem adding critiques in the reception here they made the about us a biased inaccurate critique from one source. When there was already a fair page up.

Hi
You undid revision 1017272186 (in which I added a pic of storm damage in 2002). You said
"I think that puts in too many images, try a category on Common".
Which I did, thanks for suggestion, put in Brighton West Pier between 1975 and 2004
[I'm a virtual beginner to wikipedia, BTW, so apologies for beginners questions]
First: is there a rule about "too many" pics? Can't find one.
I'd like to see an image of storm damage as well as fire in the "Decline and damage" part of the West Pier page.
I read through MOS:LAYIM. Would best option be to use a two-image gallery, or create a sub category of Brighton West Pier between 1975 and 2004 and reference it?
Not particularly excited by image I used, maybe another in would be better, e.g. West_Pier_Remains.JPG?
I don't feel competent to make any further changes to page: will leave it to your judgement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EntropyReduction ( talk • contribs) 15:10, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi Ritchie. Hope you're doing well. Terribly sorry to bother you, but are you sure that "Delete" is truly the consensus? Numerically, yes, but the I find the delete rationales, aside from the nominator's, incredibly weak. If you think TNT or copyvio applies, would you be so kind to say so in the closing statement? Many thanks! 78.26 ( spin me / revolutions) 21:42, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi Ritchie333 - you reverted my edit to West Pier on the grounds that it is still there (or 'what's left of it'). Perhaps it comes down to semantics but I would not describe a derelict metal skeleton isolated several hundred feet out from the shore at sea as being an extant pier. It is to all intents and purpose a former pier and warrants use of the word 'was'. I don't intend getting into further debate but don't you think that to introduce it as something that still exists as a pier is to mislead the reader? cheers Geopersona ( talk) 07:34, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
