Hello, I'm
MelecieDiancie. I noticed that you recently removed content from
Henry A. Wallace without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate
edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your
sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on
my talk page.

Please do not promote the hoax by adding "further reading" from promoters. Acroterion (talk) 12:07, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
Your edit to
Timothy Leary bibliography has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added
copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of
permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read
Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be
blocked from editing. See

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

As WP:RSNP says, "The Unz Review was deprecated by snowball clause in the 2021 discussion. Editors cite racist, antisemitic, pseudoscientific and fringe content. The site's extensive archive of journal reprints includes many apparent copyright violations." Thanks. Doug Weller talk 13:56, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Neighborhood Review, it might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a
maintenance template from the
Paul Gottfried article. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the
edit summary. Please see
Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been
reverted. Thank you.

"The content of a list is governed by the same content policies as prose, including principles of due weight and avoiding original research. Ensure that list items have the same importance to the subject as would be required for the item to be included in the text of the article, according to Wikipedia policies and guidelines (including WP:Trivia sections). Consider whether prose is more appropriate."I would interpret those guidelines to mean that for Gottfried's articles (and perhaps even his books), Wikipedia:DUEWEIGHT and Wikipedia:PROPORTION policies should apply, and that the correct selection criteria would be discussion and summary by independent third-party reliable sources. Have you seen other interpretations? Llll5032 ( talk) 08:39, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
contextual information showing encyclopedic merit", and WP:NOTDATABASE says,
"To provide encyclopedic value, data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources", so one solution could be to include short explanations within the list by high-quality independent sources ( WP:BESTSOURCES) about what made each of Gottfried's mentioned articles notable. Alternatively, the Lists of Works and Timelines guideline suggests that we should "
Consider whether prose is more appropriate", and it may be more encyclopedic to describe Gottfried's influential articles within the prose "Career" section to show how they relate to his own history and thought (again, summarizing explanations by high-quality sources independent from the subject). Can you point to when the admins discouraged you? Perhaps it was a problem specific to the list formatting that would not be a problem in prose style. Llll5032 ( talk) 19:03, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
