Please add your references to Fritz Huber (engineer) and all articles you create. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 13:58, 1 April 2018 (UTC)

I am translating some articles from Italian and German Wikipedias. I could add the references from the Italian and German articles but I think this might be misleading because I have not read the Italian and German references. What would you advise?

Ways to improve Società per le strade ferrate della Sicilia

Hi, I'm Cwmhiraeth. Mock wurzel soup, thanks for creating Società per le strade ferrate della Sicilia!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Could you please add references to your articles, and if you translate an article from another language Wikipedia, you should add attribution, as I have done in this instance on the article talk page. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:24, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Your recent edits to Talk:Andrew Wakefield could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. Tgeorgescu (talk) 11:14, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

I have not made any legal threats. On the contrary, I am trying to protect Wikipedia from legal action. Mock wurzel soup (talk) 11:23, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Then I think you should retract the accusation "libelous". You may use <s> and </s> for doing that. Tgeorgescu (talk) 11:25, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

I did not say the article was libellous. I said it was "possibly libellous". Mock wurzel soup (talk) 11:26, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

You said It is my opinion that the Andrew Wakefield article, in its current form, is libellous. I will say no more. Tgeorgescu (talk) 11:33, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Methinks the lady (or gentleman) doth protest too much. Mock wurzel soup (talk) 12:39, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

It's not a protest: I have informed you that there are discretionary sanctions of application for editing Andrew Wakefield, especially if it looks like WP:TE or WP:ADVOCACY. Tgeorgescu (talk) 12:43, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Advocacy? What are you doing if it isn't advocacy against Andrew Wakefield? Mock wurzel soup (talk) 12:46, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

This is a reality-based and science-based encyclopedia, we do not engage in whitewashing Wakefield's CV, we call a spade a spade. In order words, the WP:ADVOCACY claim is thoroughly asymmetrical, see WP:NOTNEUTRAL and WP:MAINSTREAM. Tgeorgescu (talk) 13:10, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Any more WP:XXX pages you'd like to refer to? Mock wurzel soup (talk) 15:26, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

They are given as explanations of policies and guidelines in case you are willing to comply with our rules and therefore willing to learn the rules of editing Wikipedia. Of course, I cannot force you to choose to obey our rules, but if you don't obey them you will likely get blocked or banned from editing. Tgeorgescu (talk) 15:38, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
