Question about your edit

Hello,

Yesterday, I updated the information about my grandfather, Rudolf Muradyan, including the unfortunate news that he passed away on November 9, 2024, in Pasadena, California. Could you kindly tell me why you changed it back?

Best regards, Satenik Satenikoganesyan (talk) 09:04, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) - you'll need to provide a reliable source that they passed away, rather than it just be something that you know. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 09:07, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Kindly check the website of the Pontifical academy of sciences, where my grandfather was a member. Satenikoganesyan (talk) 10:15, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Satenikoganesyan: Per Lee Vilenski's comment above, you need to provide a citation to a reliable source for any information you add to Wikipedia. It's the responsibility of the editor who adds information to provide sources. If you're not sure how to add sources, see Help:Referencing for beginners. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 14:14, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

you made a mistake

Why's it necessary to add Ankha Zone in AC Character Listing? doesn't make sense. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 14:12, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 Despite how infamous this fan-animation was, it's uncomfortable to add. I want to be fair and constructive, but I had to remove it. Semi-Protecting Animal Crossing-related pages are something we need, but we don't wish to add mentions of rule34 content there. It's only mentioned on the Songs Wiki Page, but not this. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 14:26, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please re-read the message I left on your talk page, which explains that Wikipedia is not censored and may contain material others find unacceptable. There may be other reasons to exclude that from the article (e.g. unreliable sourcing, lack of notability, un-encyclopedic for inclusion), but not because it is "uncomfortable" to include. And because this is often completely forgotten in dialogue, I have no connection with the article's subject whatsoever; I only noticed that you made the argument that the material was inappropriate, and sought to explain that this isn't a reason alone to exclude content from the site. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 14:39, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand why we don't need to censor, but I find mentions of Ankha Zone unacceptable. Zone-Tan is an infamous Newgrounds Rule 34 Animator known for Lewd fan animations of Pop Culture Cartoons and Video Games. Nintendo Pages like this don't belong there; the category doesn't fit. Maybe I'm wrong; I don't know. I want it removed before the final decision to be semi-protected is made to prevent editors from adding it again. That's what I want to wish, to prevent mentions regarding Pornographic Animated Content. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 15:10, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 I meant ZONE-SAMA, but yeah you get the point. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 15:20, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 Arguing Censorship you want, but I'm warning this: This had to change for the better. I'm not the owner; I'm trying to understand why it had to be removed, but I don't know why it doesn't. I'm baffled by how this is added to the characters listing. I'm disgusted... 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 16:04, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697
kids are gonna research this kind of inappropriate content from the free encyclopedia page, it makes me angry. I don't have kids, not because of censorship, but it's disrespectful to put it there. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 16:21, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A few points to consider:
  • Semi-protection will not help because any autoconfirmed user can still edit the page to include it. It will only prevent unregistered users like you from editing the page.
  • Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and in its encyclopedic function, may cover topics that are deemed inappropriate otherwise; this has already been explained to you, so I will not elaborate further.
  • "I don't like it" is not a strong argument for anything. Decisions on Wikipedia are made through consensus via discussion. The strength of an argument is determined by how well it explains its reasoning, not by numbers or by personal opinion. Your comments on the article's talk page don't provide any strong arguments and don't cite any policies or previous consensus. It's going to be difficult to convince anyone with such flimsy arguments alone.
And, as I should mention again, I have no connection to the article in question whatsoever, so airing grievances at me isn't going to accomplish anything. I simply explained to you that WP:NOTCENSORED is policy, so if you disagree with the inclusion of the material in question, that line of reasoning isn't supported by the general consensus that Wikipedia isn't censored, and that it is better instead to explain why such inclusions are not notable or unencyclopedic. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 21:10, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know if your the owner of this Page or try to think it's allowable. If not, I'll contact the owner in charge to undo the minor damage. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 21:35, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You didn't read anything that I wrote, did you? I have no connection to the article in question whatsoeverk6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 21:38, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do not care. The kind of infamous material isn't reliable to add. 2601:680:CD00:7A80:B8D5:E7DB:97E1:8697 (talk) 21:45, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, you're not going to get anywhere with that attitude. Now please stop wasting my time. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 21:52, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
