From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome!

Hello, HudecEmil, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as One person, one vote, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, ask me on my talk page. You can also type {{ help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

A tag has been placed on One person, one vote requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

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. Happy Editing-- IAm Chaos 19:47, 22 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Yes, speedy deletion is desired. My redirect was unintended. HudecEmil ( talk) 19:58, 22 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Copying within Wikipedia

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Wasted vote into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{ copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Firefangledfeathers ( talk / contribs) 04:00, 30 May 2022 (UTC) reply

One person, one vote

Hello,

Please do not changes this redirect into an article without consensus at Talk:One man, one vote. The speedy deletion tags on your user page and lack of concrete approval at the above talk page suggest that you need consensus to implement the split. You might need to call a WP:RFC to draw attention to the issue if you cannot gain consensus on the talk page already. Please do not change the redirect without first gaining consensus. Thank you, CollectiveSolidarity ( talk) 04:53, 30 June 2022 (UTC) reply

"clarification, applies only to single-winner electoral system"

Arrow's theorem applies to rank-order systems, not single-winner systems. (I believe there are similar theorems for single-winner systems but I'm not sure exactly what conditions are needed.) What it forbids is a system that takes candidates A, B, and C and returns an ordering like A > B > C; systems that return A or systems that return {A,B} are outside its scope. I believe single-winner still fails but set of winners can succeed (look at the top set, for example).

CRGreathouse ( t | c) 19:12, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Right, Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem is limited to single winner, but Arrow's theorem is not, thanks for correcting. HudecEmil ( talk) 21:22, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply
If you want multi-winner systems, you should look at the Duggan–Schwartz theorem which extends Gibbard–Satterthwaite to that case. - CRGreathouse ( t | c) 03:35, 22 December 2022 (UTC) reply
Duggan–Schwartz theorem is only for ranked preferences, not cardinal HudecEmil ( talk) 06:54, 22 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Deletion discussion about Presidentialism metrics

Hello, HudecEmil, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Edward-Woodrow, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Presidentialism metrics, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Presidentialism metrics.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Edward-Woodrow}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Removing a redirect

Dear colleague, removing a redirect through blanking it, as you did with Democracy in russia is not a right way: it simply creates more work for other editors. If you disagree with the existence of a redirect, the proper way is to go through WP:RFD. Викидим ( talk) 16:50, 16 March 2024 (UTC) reply

March 2024

Hi, I noticed you've been making a number of edits relating to the biology of race and sex/gender today. A large proportion of them have been reverted, both by me and a number of other experienced editors. There have been a variety of reasons for this, but some of the edits did not turn out to be supported by the sources you provided (e.g. this one and this one). I strongly suggest that you slow down. It's clear that you are operating in a good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, but if others need to comb through your edits, check the sources, and revert most of them, it ends up being a drain on the project. Thanks, Generalrelative ( talk) 23:02, 22 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Slowing down and be less bold and more accurate is a good point, especially for contentious topics. HudecEmil ( talk) 12:31, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Scienceblogs.com is not a reliable source

We rarely use blogs. Exceptionally we might use one by an expert in their field. That doesn't apply to this one, and I note that the author of the post is anonymous. Doug Weller talk 09:16, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Not disagreeing. This blog reference is currently used in Species concept (not added by me, please remove it there as well). But agreeing that for a contentious topic a blog is not sufficient. HudecEmil ( talk) 12:27, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{ Ctopics/aware}} template.

Information icon You have recently made edits related to the intersection of race/ethnicity and human abilities and behaviour. This is a standard message to inform you that the intersection of race/ethnicity and human abilities and behaviour is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS.

Information icon You have recently made edits related to the Arab–Israeli conflict. This is a standard message to inform you that the Arab–Israeli conflict is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Additionally, editors must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours per page for pages within this topic. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS.

Request reason:

I do agree that the sources I used were either not reliable enough in case of that blog or I didn't describe the source accurately enough, especially relevant for contentious topics. As for the older Talk page posts I did reflect on them at that time and adjusted my further edits accordingly. Since I didn't really disagree I didn't respond in the past. Is there a Wikipedia rule that one must/should respond on User Talk? Either way, I agree (after being alerted to this) that it is helpful to actually answer on User Talk with text responses and if there is no such explicit Wikipedia rule there should be.

Yes, I agree to be more aware of the other parts of the consensus-building process, read and respect existing consensus, and before potentially controversial edits seek consensus. In particular, I will err on the side of caution, especially for contentious topics. For edits that could be considered controversial, I will first make a proposal on the talk page so I don't do disruptive editing. HudecEmil ( talk) 11:13, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

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.

One person, one vote

Hello,

Please do not changes this redirect into an article without consensus at Talk:One man, one vote. The speedy deletion tags on your user page and lack of concrete approval at the above talk page suggest that you need consensus to implement the split. You might need to call a WP:RFC to draw attention to the issue if you cannot gain consensus on the talk page already. Please do not change the redirect without first gaining consensus. Thank you, CollectiveSolidarity ( talk) 04:53, 30 June 2022 (UTC) reply

"clarification, applies only to single-winner electoral system"

Arrow's theorem applies to rank-order systems, not single-winner systems. (I believe there are similar theorems for single-winner systems but I'm not sure exactly what conditions are needed.) What it forbids is a system that takes candidates A, B, and C and returns an ordering like A > B > C; systems that return A or systems that return {A,B} are outside its scope. I believe single-winner still fails but set of winners can succeed (look at the top set, for example).

CRGreathouse ( t | c) 19:12, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Right, Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem is limited to single winner, but Arrow's theorem is not, thanks for correcting. HudecEmil ( talk) 21:22, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply
If you want multi-winner systems, you should look at the Duggan–Schwartz theorem which extends Gibbard–Satterthwaite to that case. - CRGreathouse ( t | c) 03:35, 22 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Deletion discussion about Presidentialism metrics

Hello, HudecEmil, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Edward-Woodrow, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Presidentialism metrics, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Presidentialism metrics.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Edward-Woodrow}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Democratic backsliding by country into Democracy in Venezuela. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{ copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek ( talk) 23:49, 25 February 2024 (UTC) reply

March 2024

Hi, I noticed you've been making a number of edits relating to the biology of race and sex/gender today. A large proportion of them have been reverted, both by me and a number of other experienced editors. There have been a variety of reasons for this, but some of the edits did not turn out to be supported by the sources you provided (e.g. this one and this one). I strongly suggest that you slow down. It's clear that you are operating in a good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, but if others need to comb through your edits, check the sources, and revert most of them, it ends up being a drain on the project. Thanks, Generalrelative ( talk) 23:02, 22 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Slowing down and be less bold and more accurate is a good point, especially for contentious topics. HudecEmil ( talk) 12:31, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Scienceblogs.com is not a reliable source

We rarely use blogs. Exceptionally we might use one by an expert in their field. That doesn't apply to this one, and I note that the author of the post is anonymous. Doug Weller talk 09:16, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Not disagreeing. This blog reference is currently used in Species concept (not added by me, please remove it there as well). But agreeing that for a contentious topic a blog is not sufficient. HudecEmil ( talk) 12:27, 23 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{ Ctopics/aware}} template.

Information icon You have recently made edits related to the intersection of race/ethnicity and human abilities and behaviour. This is a standard message to inform you that the intersection of race/ethnicity and human abilities and behaviour is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS.

Information icon You have recently made edits related to the Arab–Israeli conflict. This is a standard message to inform you that the Arab–Israeli conflict is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Additionally, editors must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours per page for pages within this topic. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS.

Request reason:

I do agree that the sources I used were either not reliable enough in case of that blog or I didn't describe the source accurately enough, especially relevant for contentious topics. As for the older Talk page posts I did reflect on them at that time and adjusted my further edits accordingly. Since I didn't really disagree I didn't respond in the past. Is there a Wikipedia rule that one must/should respond on User Talk? Either way, I agree (after being alerted to this) that it is helpful to actually answer on User Talk with text responses and if there is no such explicit Wikipedia rule there should be.

Yes, I agree to be more aware of the other parts of the consensus-building process, read and respect existing consensus, and before potentially controversial edits seek consensus. In particular, I will err on the side of caution, especially for contentious topics. For edits that could be considered controversial, I will first make a proposal on the talk page so I don't do disruptive editing. HudecEmil ( talk) 11:13, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply
