COI tag
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I understand the reason for the COI tag, but I'd like to see this article improved to the point where the tag can be removed. Can editors please start identifying or removing problematic content? ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:33, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Another Believer:, you presented yourself as something along the line of editing expert. I'm looking through the edit history in this article and I see highly obvious self-editing flew right past you. With your level of experience, I would like to ask why you let it fly without saying a thing. Direct editing is one of the greater sins here from what I understand. A substantial amount of direct editing occurred in this case in which the self-disclosed administrator made an edit with considerable change to present the article in the way desired by the organization. I posit that when the organization seeds or develop the framework of the article, it causes a massive deformation of neutrality with lasting effects. Graywalls (talk) 16:44, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- Graywalls, I'm not disputing COI editing has occurred here. I'm saying we can remove problematic content and then remove the tag. I can't be blamed for previous edits to this article, or expected to track every single contribution by each editor. This is Wikipedia editing 101. Let's focus on improving the article... ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:45, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- More specifically, it is the "modernization" from the self-admitted edit ("Modernization and error correction - I am the official administrator for Pride Northwest") which I liken to structural damage with long lasting bias in the form of the organizing developed a control over which contents to include and which contents to not cover in addition to how its presented.

- Graywalls, Ok, so is there specific content you'd like removed, or do you just want to keep the tag up forever? ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:50, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- what is "ever"? I posit that you're on an unreasonable time scale compared to reasonableness as applicable to median level contributors. Graywalls (talk) 16:51, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- Graywalls, Again, avoiding the question. I'll move on... ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:55, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

Actually, I've removed lots of poorly sourced and unsourced content, and added back 2 stub tags. @Graywalls: Do you still think the tag is necessary? ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:21, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- If there are no replies here within the next week or so, I plan to remove the tag. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:55, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
Update: The tag has been removed by another editor. ---Another Believer (Talk) 23:13, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
