Mistake in picture

[edit]

In this chart, the Western Allies include Yugoslavia. It seems to be a mistake, because Yugoslavia was situated in Southeast Europe. Also, the Yugoslav partisans fought at the Eastern front. --79.236.130.85 (talk) 20:35, 4 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Contested edits

[edit]

This edit by Xcommun does not seem to me like an improvement: [1]. It replaces informative, encyclopedic text with bland puffery (and also removed a reference). Edit warring to restore the same text, even if it includes the removed citation, as Xcommun has now done [2], is also counterproductive. I ask them to engage here rather than re-adding the disputed content, and to slow their roll because their subsequent edits [3][4][5][6] do not appear to be helpful either.

See my response below. Let's try to keep this conversation to one thread. Generalrelative (talk) 06:31, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Citing references

[edit]

i am citing references from Britannica please refrain from eliminating data that has been approved by Britannica Xcommun (talk) 06:27, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What you're adding is not data. You're removing encyclopedic text and replacing it with WP:PEACOCK prose. And Britannica.com is not an especially great source. Recent scholarship (from the past 30 or 40 years) would be much better, and the key is to actually summarize it. Generalrelative (talk) 06:30, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
After looking at your source it's also clearly a very flagrant copyright violation. This is a hassle. We'll need to ask an admin to revision-delete your edits. Generalrelative (talk) 06:33, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am only adding information that was published by a reputable medium Xcommun (talk) 06:37, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
is there a reason why you're so quick to disengage and not communicate before your words? Xcommun (talk) 06:38, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
clearly this is not something I wish to engage in any further as I was only providing information from a source that is very reputable but if you believe otherwise that's fine , I do not wish to engage in any conflict so I will terminate my edits on this topic Xcommun (talk) 06:40, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Xcommun: Cool, but before you ever edit Wikipedia again, please familiarize yourself with our policy against copyright violation. Click the blue text to read. And please do not delete talk page comments after they've been replied to. Generalrelative (talk) 06:48, 16 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
