Hello Peaceray. I was wondering if you could be so kind as to close the RfC at Talk:Gardnerian Wicca#RfC on Open Letter (or at least provide an informed opinion). Thank you. Nosferattus (talk) 17:57, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

:FYI, I filed a sockpuppet investigation for Himagics8 and TeslaCivic: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Himagics8. Nosferattus (talk) 23:30, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

::That is good because I have been occupied with opening up another sockpuppet investigation at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nv7801 that also involves :Commons:. Peaceray (talk) 05:16, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

:I see no resolution. There was an argument over whether a source was reliable or a blog, & I frankly cannot discern either way. There seems to be no consensus on how to {{tq|How to word the discussion of the open letter on "traditional" Gardnerian Wicca}}. Should I close it as inconclusive? Peaceray (talk) 05:20, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

::I think there's too much ongoing discussion to close it now. Please keep an eye on the article though, as I don't expect the POV-pushing to let up. Also feel free to leave a comment at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Himagics8 since you have more experience with this editor than I do. Nosferattus (talk) 19:36, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

Research it! It will happen,by anyone. It’s not rite when you google chemtrails on wiki that there are contradictory stories. Yes contrails and chemtrails are different, ask the hundreds of cloud seeding companies out there and the pilots and aeronautics engineers, not the government! It’s been done before (mkultra) etc. why would it not have been taken further? Not a conspiracy, it’s real! Remember people were killed for saying the earth was a sphere originally. Everything comes out eventually. It’s just a no brainer when all the information is there but they want you to ignore it. Maybe most are already numbed by their environment! Reaserchit (talk) 23:18, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Reaserchit}} I already do plenty of research for Wikipedia. I am not going to do any research solely to support your point of view. If you cannot produce verification from reliable sources, you will be unable to successfully propose or make changes to an article.

:I would also advise that you read the verifiability, not truth essay. Peaceray (talk) 23:55, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

I only looked once and found many contradictions on this topic on wiki. Just stating. Not worried. If you’re good with that then I wouldn’t trust wiki as a reliable source. Who would? Reaserchit (talk) 00:06, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Reaserchit}} With any encyclopedia, & especially one of this size, there are usually inconsistencies. The best thing that can happen for Wikipedia is that new editors will embrace the five pillars & set about fixing stuff in line with the verification & neutrality policies.

:Whenever I hear someone like yourself criticizing what a volunteer project has done, I find myself asking: Are you volunteering? Peaceray (talk) 03:38, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

I thought wiki was a reliable source of information, but apparently not! Just volunteers promoting their own views😢 2405:6E00:2803:9ECC:71E9:A8A5:9A94:BF66 (talk) 04:10, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

My edit was not a mistake. Abra Catastrophe (a Fairly Oddparents movie) did reference The Empire Strikes Back. Also Futurama had referenced The Empire Strikes Back in a few episodes, such as "The Route of All Evil", "The 30% Iron Chef", "The Sting" and the one of direct-to-video movies Bender's Game. Even the SyFy article that was linked had Futurama and The Fairly OddParents referenced, so there's no need to remove the two. 2600:8801:8E:9900:4545:157:F171:343B (talk) 18:37, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

:I have no problem with your subsequent edits, just the one in which you removed American Dad! when an episode clearly referenced a scene from The Empire Strikes Back. Peaceray (talk) 18:52, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

:::You apparently deleted The Fairly OddParents & Futurama yourself with {{diff|The Empire Strikes Back|1286466892|1286466572|this edit}}. I only restored American Dad! {{diff|The_Empire_Strikes_Back|1286552037|1286466892|with my edit}}. Peaceray (talk) 19:12, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to Arthur Hastings Sloggatt. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability, you may have a possible Conflict of Interest and one of the sources is written by the subject's son.

I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page.

When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Sarsenet•he/they•(talk) 11:15, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

:{{ping|Sarsenet}} I think you meant to post this to User talk:Sloggatt, as it is not my article & I have warned Sloggart about WP:COI. My only edits to the page were maintenance templates, the first of which {{tl|unsourced}} was placed when the page was in the user sandbox, & the second, {{tl|more sources}} was a replacement of the first. I am also unsure why you removed the maintenance template, as it obviously needs more sources. Peaceray (talk) 16:04, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Peaceray. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "North Creek".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion/G13?withJS=MediaWiki:G13-restore-wizard.js&page=Draft%3ANorth+Creek+%28Washington%29 request its undeletion]. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:45, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
