Removing a citation you didn't bother to read

@MrOllie: I would like to remind you that you are a Wikipedia editor just like everyone of us. You are not privileged. You don't have the right to revert edits just by judging a source as unreliable 5 minutes after the edit, a source that you didn't bother to read. The source has nothing to do with promotion or marketing and it cites reliable literature.116.123.114.153 (talk) 08:32, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's a self published blog and web store. Obviously unreliable, especially for medical claims, which have special sourcing requirements which you can find at WP:MEDRS. MrOllie (talk) 10:46, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Revert on the Photographic Film Page

Hello MrOllie, I would like to know why you reverted what I just added on this section: Photographic film#In production

Film Photography Project states on their site that they acquired old equipment from the Svema plant to resume production of Svema branded film in Ukraine.

I do not know exactly when they have started doing this, but there is a capture as early as April, 2018 on the Wayback Machine for this url:

https://filmphotographystore.com/collections/svema-film

Does Shostka, Ukraine not count as another legitimate coating plant?

Is the source not reliable because it is a store site?

Why did you revert my edit?

Thanks,

We don't link to people's web stores. MrOllie (talk) 21:20, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, can I ask for a link to the directory if you're going to cut that entire section then?

FilmDoodler (talk) 21:25, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Entirely disregard; I am new here,

I have found out List of photographic films exists. FilmDoodler (talk) 21:35, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to have corrected an error :) FilmDoodler (talk) 21:46, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand what's inappropriate about the link.

Hello! @MrOllie I have done a small edit in the page and the link i cited had the detailed information about the topic. what's spam in it?

Content strategist 1 (talk) 22:36, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your blog does not remotely meet our policy requirements. Adding your site was linkspamming as we define it on Wikipedia. MrOllie (talk) 22:37, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. but i don't agree with you on this Content strategist 1 (talk) 22:41, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You're allowed to disagree with Wikipedia's policies, but you've got to follow them anyway. MrOllie (talk) 22:52, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Twinkle

I just noticed <this> warning you gave a user using Twinkle, seems that it broke.

From experience if you include "[[" inside a template, but don't close it ( {{subst:void|[[like this}} ), it doesn't do anything.
Although I do realize that your case happened because of a typo (should have been a single opening square bracket). – 2804:F14:80B2:4F01:FD70:3461:5359:B35D (talk) 05:08, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MrOllie: Just wanted to make sure you saw this, since I sent this just as you (I'm guessing) went away for a few days and other -ignorable- edits happened to this page after it. – 2804:F14:80A4:9701:D537:4E86:F39C:17C (talk) 22:59, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) I left a level 2 spam warning and removed the malformed warning. Sundayclose (talk) 23:32, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

news reporting

news reporting is a subfield of journalism. all subfields of journalism have article. why you do not let it to have special article? what is your problem? Wikijournalistt (talk) 17:14, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No, they are the same thing per the cited sources. You must stop moving articles and rewriting them based on your personal opinions, which are at odds with the relevant literature. What you are doing is disrupting Wikipedia. MrOllie (talk) 17:42, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Kmart

@MrOllie why did you remove my edit and what talk page are you talking about? You better not say that because the sources are not reliable because they are. Do your research. In the meantime, im reverting my edit. Mmartinezmdr (talk) 21:55, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MrOllie

You did not bother to look deeper into this, I was there in late 1970's and 1980's (History). How are your sources reliable on your part to remove contents? DJFLEX-mk2 22:13, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
