Where's the problem

I've read the protocol of Wikipedia, the users who undo my latest work seem to be not agreeing with official South African stats and information, so they have no leg to undermine the existence of others beliefs especially that pertains to themselves as an identity and recognized bureaucratically.

Interview

Hi, I am a PhD student at University College London (UK), researching the collective production of knowledge. Wikipedia is my main case study. Would you be able/willing to talk to me about your activity on Wikipedia?

I have submitted my project to the Wikipedia research committee for guidance. You can find the full summary here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Sociotechnical_epistemology:_how_do_we_foster_good_practices_in_collective_knowledge-production%3F

There's more on my user page and you can ask me any questions. We can discuss identification, uses of data and so forth before talking as well. If you're interested, you can contact me via my Talk page, or by emailing me at elena.falco.18@ucl.ac.uk

Thanks! ElenaFalco (talk) 15:46, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Nathan Edmondson

Hi. My attempts to get others to help regarding an editor blanking content from the Nathan Edmondson article, and refusing to discuss the matter, have only been slightly successful. I've contacted three other admins, and put messages on the WikiComics Project talk page, and only two other editors have so far responded. Since you've participated in disputes regarding comics articles before, can you offer your views in the discussions? My analysis of the blanking, which I did at the request of another editor who alerted me to the problem, is here. The subsequent RfC began here. Thanks.

HNY!

Wishing you and yours the Happiest of New Years, friend Rivertorch! Also, we hope that whatever you're doing now, you are continuing your high achievements as always! Come back to us soon, for you are sorely missed. P.I. Ellsworth - ed. ^put'r there 07:54, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
