Trump

I think you've articulated the argument clearly enough; beware of BLUDGEON unless you have something new and really significant to add. Editors will be convinced or not by what you've already said, and cynical ole me thinks that will depend almost entirely on how they feel about Trump. Nothing we can do about that, in this or any discussion. Don't make the mistake of believing these things are debates that can be "won" by making stronger points. Unless you have something new and really significant to add, I'd just sit back, meditate on the Serenity Prayer, sip a beverage of your choice, and let it play out. My 2¢. ―Mandruss ☎ 01:59, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks User:Mandruss. When someone asks a question, I don’t want to be rude by not answering. But you’re right. Anythingyouwant (talk) 02:20, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, I had the same thought when I saw DN asking you questions. I'd file that under "something new and really significant to add". ―Mandruss ☎ 02:33, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Mandruss, I just noticed this. It's sage advice that I also need to internalize. It's not easy, so thanks for trying to help us. It's appreciated. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 02:23, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Alleged CT Violation at Donald Trump

Your edit here reinstates the misleading link that you previously inserted. This violated the 24BRD Restriction. Kindly self-revert. SPECIFICO talk 21:17, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

Your edit summary said there was a WP:EGG problem, so I rephrased to eliminate the WP:EGG issue. I made a good faith effort to revise my edit to address your objection. Do you think there’s still a WP:EGG issue? Now, here at my talk page, you object for the first time that a link is misleading. I do not believe that I have erred here. I do believe that you have a serious WP:OWN problem with this particular BLP. Since you’re making a serious accusation here, and are trying to get me in trouble for the umpteenth time, I am asking for an admin like User:Bishonen to please advise. Thanks.

Your disagreement with my brief edit summary does not cure a CT violation. The link you inserted was misleading, as I and others would have explained had you gone to talk as required. Please don't make a big issue of this and follow the required course. SPECIFICO talk 21:58, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

You’re not being accurate. I didn’t disagree with your brief edit summary about WP:EGG. Instead I cured the problem identified by your brief edit summary. And you apparently refuse to answer my question above: “Do you think there’s still a WP:EGG issue?” Incidentally, what does “CT” stand for? Anythingyouwant (talk) 23:14, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
