Collapsing pointless rant

After only a few days trying my hand at editing - I give up. This seemingly organic website - which I previously held in high esteem - seems to be nothing more than an arena for people to impose their will on others - to the detriment of all. Having made a few edits in the past few days - I have been told that my edits are "...too detailed and not helpful..." and that "...Wikipedia doesn't care what random forum members may or may not want to know...". The result of these comments - the total deletion of my edits. This highlights to me that, we have administrators who are governing what we read, and deciding (without consultation) what can be posted with unfettered discretionary powers and no proper guidance. The most concerning point is that these administrators do not seem to be answerable to anyone. The continuation of this arbitrary and unaccountable behaviour is dangerous - and serves only to undermine wikipedia and diminish its objectivity. An administrator should not have sole control over what is maintained on wikipedia - we all have different views on importance and relevance. Perhaps what is needed is a system which requires two administrators to agree before edits are simply deleted from the pages of history, never to be read, considered or challenged in a proper forum. To quote a great poet and source of wisdom from our time - "I mean, if you're the police, who will police the police?" Until that question is properly answered - I see no point contributing further, nor using this site as a reference point ( NRoss427 ( talk) 22:48, 26 September 2019 (UTC))
Somebody please look at my "talk page" and my edits on "Mercedes Benz CLK" and see what I am dealing with! This is not how WP was designed. An administrator troll vetting and censoring my every edit because he thinks it is not relevant. Graham87 is not the voice WP, and is not the voice of the readers of WP - how is it possible that he alone dictates what is important and what is not. what is relevant and what is not. I was asked to have a second try at editing and i did, and i suffered the same result - deletion because a Graham87 didn't like my edit and saw fit to remove it for the fourth time. Citing (while deleting a two sentence edit - "...still too much detail, it's a car that got crashed in a race driven by somebody who doesn't even specialise in car-racing...". Fine this chap likes kittens and not cars - let others post! What is the point... UNSUBSCRIBED!!!!! ( NRoss427 ( talk) 11:34, 27 September 2019 (UTC))
Sure...whats the point! An administrator deletes an edit that is too long - fine. I reduced it - but it was deleted again. Fine - I reduced 365 words into two sentences - but it was deleted again due to relevance and being too long (two sentences?!?!?) The reason "...still too much detail, it's a car that got crashed in a race driven by somebody who doesn't even specialise in car-racing...". Just because someone from Perth, Australia, thinks that a race car from Tasmania is not important, does not make it so. Others are interested Graham87, that is why I made the edit.

Hi all! I've been contributing to Wikipedia a bit in my spare time. Since I'm pretty new, I've mostly been making small changes to random articles that I find with Special:Random. Unfortunately, most articles seem to be about people or places - and I'm not much of a historian/geographer.

Hi Teahouse, Thanks to Liance for the feedback on the Bixler High Private Eye TV Movie post. I'm looking for ways to demonstrate notability for the film - I had assumed it would be notable simply for being released on a major TV network (Nickelodeon) and having multiple notable stars (Norman, Martin, Begley Jr.) but am happy to dig deeper. Here's a few sources I could add to the page: 1) Interview with Jace Norman (star and executive producer) with BUILDSeries.com, discussing the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4I7B0cyLwY 2) Interview with Baby Ariel (Ariel Martin) for E! News show Latinx Now! Show discussing the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elPEQQSoQgg 3) Interview with Jace Norman for HollywoodLife.com discussing the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24CMggyw7NI This all seems like legitimate unbiased press for the film, outside of Nick's promotional materials. 3) Also, Amazon Prime has a rating for the film of 4.5 stars- but perhaps this is no more notable than a product review? haha. Let me know if I'm on the right track here. many thanks, HG — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harrygold19 ( talk • contribs) 16:10, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Hi ColinFine Thanks for your reply. Just to clarify, Buildseries.com, E!News and HollywoodLife.com are all independent entertainment news outlets that covered the film. So while the interviews are of cast members and people associated with the film, they are by people and entities who are not. It seems that the former should not negate the later: yes, Jace Norman is talking about it but so is Matt Forte of Buildseries.com. If the film is not noteworthy, why are these independent outlets interviewing the stars of the film to discuss it? update: Here's an article about the film from TheWrap.com, written by Ashley Boucher. https://www.thewrap.com/nickelodeon-bixler-high-private-eye-tv-movie/ And this article from the Hollywood Reporter mentions the film: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/harvey-danger-star-jace-norman-kids-choice-awards-substitute-1196679 Also this article from Newsday, which seems to offer a critical take on the film as well: https://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/family/kidsday/nickelodeon-jace-norman-kidsday-1.26094611 Would these sources fly? many thanks! -HG
Hi Folks,
I came across this wiki page - /info/en/?search=Open-source_model#Economics and within the table, a company called 'Sauce Labs' is described as the leading company for Selenium (an open-source project). That being said, the citation used - https://www.battery.com/powered/boss-index-tracking-explosive-growth-open-source-software/ clearly mentions BrowserStack and Sauce Labs. Could you guide me to the best way of incorporating 'BrowserStack' into the table? I am a novice and want to be cautious as there is also a conflict of interest (I work for BrowserStack).

Battery trays for electric cars are the future of electric cars. That is assuming that governments of the world can co ordinate the manufacturing process. Battery trays, of various sizes would be available at " service stations." Cars would have tray "slots" where a new , fully-charged battery could be inserted in a matter of a few minutes. The car owner would never own a tray. A simple and effective way to eliminate most current issues with electric cars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.129.234.227 ( talk) 19:59, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Hi there, long time reader first time editor, I have a question about content. Sometimes I will come across an article that is relatively short (say 5-7 paragraphs) but overwhelmed by a LOT of very specific details about a particular event that is only a small piece of the article. For example let's say I had a 5 paragraph article on myself, and 1 full paragraph was devoted to some relatively unimportant things I did in summer of 2013. It's all correct and accurate, but it doesn't make sense to have that much focus. What is wikipedia's policy on balanced weighting of content in articles? 2001:4898:80E8:B:4E7D:5F96:FCD8:FC94 ( talk) 19:48, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Hello. I have a question about the style/formatting for albums, particularly stubs. I've read this: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice#Musical_style,_writing,_composition, but the answer didn't jump out. When noting that all songs were written by person X, except where indicated, should that sentence end in a period? Here's an example: A Man Alone (album). No period after All songs written by Rod McKuen
Another: Odetta in Japan. No period after All tracks arranged by Odetta; except where indicated
I've also seen similar sentences in other stubs that DO end with periods (maybe a majority?)...so perhaps it's a preference? Seems like there should be a period in these cases, but I'm unsure if this was decided long ago.
Just wondering! Sorry for worrying about such a minor thing. Thank you very much for your help. Caro7200 ( talk) 18:05, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

On that page it says to notify a user on their talk page when you start a discussion about them, and it gives a template, but I do not know how to use this template or what it is for (or where to put it — and do I just copy/paste it on their talk page, or copy/paste something inside of it...?).

Dear Expert,
I am an independent individual content writer and recently started contributing to Wikipedia.
I have published an article on the title "Artha Venture Fund" (first version published about 10 days before), A reviewer has declined my article due to error in the reference citation and some other reasons. Taken the suggestions of the reviewer on priority and with high respect and improved the article accordingly and submitted 8 days before.
It's been now 8 days and no comment received from the reviewer.
Could you please let me know the status of my article as well as when it will be approved.

but I got banded. Being banned from Wikipedia generally requires causing some pretty serious problems; so, perhaps you mean you got blocked instead. There's no record, however, your account (i.e. the Ronikal account) ever being blocked; so, perhaps you're referring to another account. If that's the case, then you really shouldn't be creating new accounts to try and edit because that's almost certainly just going to lead to those accounts being blocked as a violation of Wikipedia:Sock puppetry. What you should do is request that your original account, i.e. the one you used to try and create the article about your website, be first unblocked, and only then worry about trying to create an article. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 07:40, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Battery trays for electric cars are the future of electric cars. That is assuming that governments of the world can co ordinate the manufacturing process. Battery trays, of various sizes would be available at " service stations." Cars would have tray "slots" where a new , fully-charged battery could be inserted in a matter of a few minutes. The car owner would never own a tray. A simple and effective way to eliminate most current issues with electric cars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.129.234.227 ( talk) 19:59, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Hi there, long time reader first time editor, I have a question about content. Sometimes I will come across an article that is relatively short (say 5-7 paragraphs) but overwhelmed by a LOT of very specific details about a particular event that is only a small piece of the article. For example let's say I had a 5 paragraph article on myself, and 1 full paragraph was devoted to some relatively unimportant things I did in summer of 2013. It's all correct and accurate, but it doesn't make sense to have that much focus. What is wikipedia's policy on balanced weighting of content in articles? 2001:4898:80E8:B:4E7D:5F96:FCD8:FC94 ( talk) 19:48, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Hi,
Am trying to upload a company logo in preparation for a new article. But I get an error message when trying to do so.
From /info/en/?search=Template:Infobox_company, I follow the link in "Upload a wordmark/logo graphic using the organization logo upload form."
Which consistently gives the following error:
Any ideas?

Hello. I have a question about the style/formatting for albums, particularly stubs. I've read this: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice#Musical_style,_writing,_composition, but the answer didn't jump out. When noting that all songs were written by person X, except where indicated, should that sentence end in a period? Here's an example: A Man Alone (album). No period after All songs written by Rod McKuen
Another: Odetta in Japan. No period after All tracks arranged by Odetta; except where indicated
I've also seen similar sentences in other stubs that DO end with periods (maybe a majority?)...so perhaps it's a preference? Seems like there should be a period in these cases, but I'm unsure if this was decided long ago.
Just wondering! Sorry for worrying about such a minor thing. Thank you very much for your help. Caro7200 ( talk) 18:05, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Hello. I was working on editing the article "Women and HIV/AIDS". I noticed that this article was an orphan article, so I linked two other articles to it and removed the template. But my edit was reverted immediately, and I don't know why. Did I do anything wrong? It would be nice to know.

I am considering reporting a certain user for persistent disruptive editing on the "Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents" page. On that page it says to notify a user on their talk page when you start a discussion about them, and it gives a template, but I do not know how to use this template or what it is for (or where to put it — and do I just copy/paste it on their talk page, or copy/paste something inside of it...?). Here is the link to the page with the template I am referring to: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&action=edit§ion=new Any help is appreciated, thank you.

Dear Expert,
I am an independent individual content writer and recently started contributing to Wikipedia.
I have published an article on the title "Artha Venture Fund" (first version published about 10 days before), A reviewer has declined my article due to error in the reference citation and some other reasons. Taken the suggestions of the reviewer on priority and with high respect and improved the article accordingly and submitted 8 days before.
It's been now 8 days and no comment received from the reviewer.
Could you please let me know the status of my article as well as when it will be approved.

Hi Team
This is Emma and I wanted to ask that, I want to submit an educational information about my website in wikipedia.org but what is the process? Because once I tried to submit but I got banded. Can anyone show me the correct way how to do it.
Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronikal ( talk • contribs) 06:36, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
but I got banded. Being banned from Wikipedia generally requires causing some pretty serious problems; so, perhaps you mean you got blocked instead. There's no record, however, your account (i.e. the Ronikal account) ever being blocked; so, perhaps you're referring to another account. If that's the case, then you really shouldn't be creating new accounts to try and edit because that's almost certainly just going to lead to those accounts being blocked as a violation of Wikipedia:Sock puppetry. What you should do is request that your original account, i.e. the one you used to try and create the article about your website, be first unblocked, and only then worry about trying to create an article. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 07:40, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
