I’m sorry, I must have done it wrong, I cited the references in the post I made. I’ll try to figure out how to post correctly, it’s my first time trying — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abusedbyelders (talk • contribs) 18:51, 20 September 2023 (UTC) [reply ]
Fighter generations in lede
[edit ]May I ask where the consensus mentioned here was established? I was recently involved in a similar dispute over unsourced changes to the fighter generation in the HAL Tejas lede, but removing the generation altogether would hopefully end the issue. - ZLEA T \C 17:31, 25 April 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Hello ZLEA, not sure I can point to a specific discussion. However, if you look at the archives of the Aircraft Project, there are multiple discussions about generations in articles, categories, in dedicated articles, this one for example, Fifth and other fighter generations. Essentially the outcome is that the generations are mostly made up, blurry, marketing categories that should be deemphasized in the articles. Also, if you look at the history of articles such as F-22 and F-35 across the years, you can see that the generation information has been steadily removed my multiple editors. --McSly (talk) 20:15, 5 May 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
2024 French legislative election
[edit ]I saw that you undid a revision on this page (French legislative elections 2024) with the argument: "Please discuss this change on the talk page". But this change had been discussed on the talk page... Did you even check ? Moreover, you undid the revision but you did not take the time to justify the reason on the talk page. That is why I am editing the page again, and if you have a reason to delete the revision, please do so, but justify it on the talk page. 2001:861:5602:2180:805C:7304:73E6:44AB (talk) 09:22, 13 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- I did see the discussion as my revert specifically mentioned that there was a note. Looks like an other editor also disagree so it looks like the discussion is not over yet. --McSly (talk) 16:47, 15 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- I wish the other editor discussed it on the talk page while editing... I am apparently the only one who cares about that 2001:861:5602:2180:805C:7304:73E6:44AB (talk) 21:54, 15 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
Magnet Therapy
[edit ]Hi, my last edit, which included the study of 194 osteoarthritis patients from 2004, was reverted. I believe I provided a reliable source.
Could you provide more details about this? Itz.mas10 (talk) 14:17, 15 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Hello @Itz.mas10:. I'm not the one who reverted your changes. It was done by User:Bon courage. That said, the reason is that the study you used is a primary study, which is not acceptable on WP. You need secondary studies (meta-analysis, systematic reviews,...). Please see WP:MEDRS for all the details. --McSly (talk) 14:29, 15 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Got it. Thank for replying. Itz.mas10 (talk) 14:33, 15 October 2024 (UTC) [reply ]

Reversion of "non-neutral" changes
[edit ]Hi, I appreciate your dedication to protect Wikipedia. However, my change at the telekinesis page is to make the language neutral, not the opposite. The original final sentence in the intro is excessively opinionated, even lying. Wikipedia should present the information on both sides as it is. Joshuamonkey (talk) 06:07, 16 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Hello @Joshuamonkey:. If you think your change should stay, you are welcome to open a discussion on the talk page of the article. That's in fact the correct process to follow. See WP:BRD. Actually, the purpose of WP is NOT to present "both sides". See WP:FALSEBALANCE. --McSly (talk) 14:38, 16 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
- Thank you, that is my plan. Joshuamonkey (talk) 15:53, 16 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
