Hey Froggie! I have no issue with you bringing up issues with me on my talk instead of going straight to WP:ST. It saves us both a lot of trouble and a resolution can easily be reached. I am sure you understand that from our time together editing. As long as a valid point is made and proven, I have no problem stopping. You brought up a good point and provided proof, so I will stop doing that going forward. I am a pretty amicable person, as are you from what I know of you and we have never had issues with each other. So again, feel free to bring it directly to me either on IRC or my TP before putting it out for everyone. For what you posted on the article tp, it was confusing, but the post on ST was better written and understandable.

1) I genuinely wanted to get the opinions of the rest of the community because it is not for certain that I am right about this. Maybe there is some advantage to adding even an off ISBN that I don't know about.
2) I am not used to people reacting the way you are reacting right now. Darkfrog24 (talk) 03:12, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
For 2 it’s understandable. It’s only because of what happened to me on en wiki where a certain user (then many more joined) who instead of talking to me took me straight to the admin board which ended in me being banned. Many stewards do not agree with them but it is what it is.
For the ISBNs, this can provide more insight w:Wikipedia:ISBN Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 03:36, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Just because someone on en.wiki weaponized the disciplinary system doesn't mean you should automatically obey anyone who raises questions about your choices. You're not an underling. I deliberately didn't use your username at Simple Talk. I phrased it almost as neutrally as I would for an RfC. I want other editors here to say whether they think it's right to add ISBNs like that. The community might decide you were doing the right thing. Darkfrog24 (talk) 12:24, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I understand and I am sorry you took it that way. I will do my best going forward. There was a better way to phrase it without even mentioning some of the stuff, but I do get your point. I did run into an article where they did include the ISBNs but the cites themselves were messed up. Those are the ones I like. But you do have a very valid point.
PS it was not just one person, it was about 35 editors. But that is behind me.
BTW, what article won? Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 12:27, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
You didn't do anything wrong. I'm just worried about the state of the project.
"What article won"? Are we talking about the F&F contest? The way that works is that one of the judges (just Haoreima and myself this year) votes "accept" or "don't accept" on each article. Each "accept" is worth one point. The contestant with the most points wins SEWP's branch of the contest. We can vote "don't accept" for any reason related to the contest, such as "This article has been deleted and is no longer on SEWP" or "This article is not about feminism or folklore" (both real examples).

Nice. Maybe (if a guy is allowed) I can help next year :)
It is perfectly understandable. I get where you are coming from, and again, has very great validity. Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 12:43, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Sure. F&F runs project-wide, so you can sign up to help on any Wikipedia in which you're competent with the language. Darkfrog24 (talk) 13:12, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Well I am on it, until they add a redneck wiki and a california wiki :) I failed spanish 3x in highschool and 2x in college. Language is not a strong suit of mine. However, I do have translate which is pretty good for copy vio checks and comparing the article to match requirements.

I am down to 34 articles left to link to wikidata and I found a great script that automates it for you so all you have to do is pick the right one and click submit. That cat is also good for new pages, especially for QD since there is nothing to link them to. I have done a fair share of QDs and redirects. If you want to hop in and help for a bit. Total Backlog Annihilation. Lee did a few yesterday morning, so I think with your help and then myself getting done what I am doing then diving back in, we can complete the first one. :)

I also love the name because that is the goal after all. Thanks and edit well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 13:00, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Feminism: Declaration of the Rights of Woman and of the Female Citizen

change

Hello,

as you have perhaps seen I have brought over Declaration of the Rights of Woman and of the Female Citizen. I have also started to simplify it. But the tools don't like me. Would you be helping simplify it, so that certain sections get from univerity-level language to a language a 7-8year old can understand? - Ideally without leaving out information.

There are also two DYK hooks in the queue, about the article, so help would defiiintely be appreciated
