Original research

[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Canterbury Tail talk 12:34, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My citations were taken directly from the Wiktionary page about the etymology of "Éire", they're not "original research" by any stretch of the imagination. Pescavelho (talk) 12:54, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wiktionary is an open Wiki and as a result is not a reliable source. Canterbury Tail talk 13:23, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not using Wiktionary itself as a source, I'm citing the sources cited in that Wiktionary page, which are from reputable dictionaries (better than the current source used in Republic of Ireland, which cites a tourism website). I don't get what the issue is (actually I do, you saw that I made a sizeable edit and reflexively reverted it, under the admittedly noble intention of wanting to stop potential vandalism) but if you need more sources I can provide more sources, or better yet, taking it to the Talk page of the respective articles.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Zoroaster, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Magician. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Your edit on Ba'athist Syria

[edit]

First you placed the spammed sources wrong, it's for "Assadist Syria" which isn't prominently used (also dubious sources imo). Otherwise, the Syrian regime has almost same usage as the Assad regime (see talkpage ngrams). Syrian regime was a synonymous derogatory term to the Assad regime. So reconsider your edit imo.

Firstly: the name "Assadist Syria" and the multiple sources backing it up were already in the article, I simply shuffled them to the appropriate place instead of them being all crammed at the beginning, so you're barking at the wrong tree. I don't mind "Assadist Syria" being removed from the article, if anything I support it given both a lack of usage and the fact that it seems to imply that "Assadism" is an ideology like Baathism is.
Secondly: my main objection is that the term "Syrian regime" is too vague. All it does is denote incumbency, if the new government sticks around for as long as the Assad regime did, who's to say people won't start calling it the "Syrian regime" as well? Pescavelho (talk) 01:03, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think that user just took all sources mentioning "Assadist Syria". No single newspaper have used this since years maybe. Beshogur (talk) 12:35, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
