Treating CNN's opinion as a fact

[edit]

Per policy, "Usually, articles will contain information about the significant opinions that have been expressed about their subjects. However, these opinions should not be stated in Wikipedia's voice. Rather, they should be attributed in the text to particular sources, or where justified, described as widespread views, etc. For example, an article should not state that "genocide is an evil action", but it may state that "genocide has been described by John X as the epitome of human evil."

So like this for a non-widespread view like hatred showing up in these three that week exclusively. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:51, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So, will you now edit-war this article too? Three sources were provided in the Pittsburgh shooting and many more exist. But, you just keep removing sources and then claiming only sourced to a CNN opinion. Then, you don't need consensus. O3000 (talk) 11:19, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I removed no sources here, just "public attacks", which wasn't in the source here. It's not in the two in the other article, either. So long as others insist on adding unsourced content (especially without explaining why it's OK), I'll contine to remove it as I see it. It's not war, it's routine policy-based cleanup.

You removed two sources from the Pittsburgh shooting article, then changed the text to indicated there were no other sources, against consensus. You have repeatedly made false accusations against CNN. You repeatedly claim CNN is not RS against consensus. You have consistently edit-warred your versions into articles. You have also repeatedly engaged in WP:BATTLEGROUND behavior. I suggest you stop and gain consensus instead of forcing your changes against consensus. O3000 (talk) 22:21, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
We're at the Jeffersontown Kroger article, stay focused. I've patiently explained the Pittsburgh situation yet again for you on that Talk Page. Is there something wrong with this article (not my tactics) that you'd like to talk about here? You can complain about my tactics on my Talk Page or at a noticeboard (if you're that serious about them). InedibleHulk (talk) 23:24, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To add to article

[edit]

The article is not finished. To add to article: how was the perpetrator subdued, and by whom? 173.88.241.33 (talk) 09:24, 4 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You will need to explain this further with sources. O3000 (talk) 01:06, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Done. It was explained in the first source. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:09, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This article should probably be deleted

[edit]

Considering adding a tag for deletion to the top of the article. Literally two people were killed in this incident and as far as I'm aware Wikipedia does not have articles for every double-murder that happens in the U.S.

I believe the rules on WP are at bare minimum an article covers a mass shooting (four or more people shot).

pinging Joseph A. Spadaro who created the article for feedback. BubbleWobble (talk) 06:01, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

At this stage of its development, it's going to need WP:AFD and not just speedy delete or prod. WWGB (talk) 06:08, 11 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
