Conservapedia

Can you keep that shit over there? Conservapedia is nothing to do with wikipedia and any actions of Ed Poor's at that right-wing shithole of a site should be discussed there. --Cameron Scott (talk) 13:27, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Generally, I would agree. But because of their politics Ed Poor can't be called out on his statements on Wikipedia (And please don't think (or say!) that we are engaging in censorship here at Conservapedia, as you guys at Wikipedia do) at his right-wing shithole, so why not asking him as User 188 here to fess up or shut up?

I beat my head against the conservapedia wall for years before I realized they are incapable of admitting an error or looking at something from someone else's POV. Give it up, it's a lost cause. Czolgolz (talk) 17:47, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

DiEb, if you have any complaints about me injecting politics into Wikipedia articles (e.g., an edit which you feel an article biased, as by giving a viewpoint so much emphasis as to violate NPOV), please bring it up on that article's talk page - or my user talk page).

If you don't like what I'm doing at Conservapedia, you can contact me (publicly) on my CP talk page, or email me privately via Wikipedia.

Thanks, and I hope to hear from you soon. --Uncle Ed (talk) 20:26, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

1. I didn't complain that you reverted my comment to your talk-page, though I thought that the edit comment was a little bit insulting: Reverted 1 edit by DiEb (talk) identified as vandalism to last revision by This, that and the other. (TW) You could be more careful with such identifications :-)
2. When you are injecting politics, I bring it up on that article's talk page, to your user page - or I correct it.
3. Now for the amusing part: you can contact me (publicly) on my CP talk page Haven't you realized that those who are trying to contact you are swiftly blocked - sometimes just for the reason of talking to you on your talk-page? See Sid 3050... And I'm blocked over there, too: RonLar (you may remember TK's verdict: RonLar is Larron backwards...and he is taking our POV apart with Larron's typical boatload of charts! Everyone wave goodbye to him. - TK, Aug 4, 2010) - and no, RonLar is hardly a sock, as Andy approved his creation to discuss his conservative best new words...
4. Would it help to email you? Or would this open just another channel for stalling and evading the subject as you have shown here?

Emailing Ed Poor is a good way to get ignored by Ed Poor. Voice of experience, he is just not open to dialogue, and will insult you behind your back. --Opcnup (talk) 16:35, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

I don't check my email very often, so my CP user talk page is best. If you're blocked there - merely for asking me about something I care about - like the sort of ideological censorship I dislike here - then I guess that would prove your point. Anyway, I'll try to check my email more than a couple of times a month, okay? :-) --Uncle Ed (talk) 03:13, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps I'll this email-thing one day. But for the moment:

Have a look at Sid 3050 edit history: http://conservapedia.com/index.php?&limit=50&tagfilter=&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=Sid+3050&namespace=&year=&month=-1

As you can see, he was blocked by Jcw on Aug 18, 2011 for "trolling"

He made six entries in the week before:

• three times he reverted obvious vandalism
• he made a stub of you a little bit more precise: here
• And he answered questions of you twice: at first on his talk page, then at your talk page.

And this is called "trolling"!

If you're blocked there - merely for asking me about something I care about - like the sort of ideological censorship I dislike here - then I guess that would prove your point. Indeed it does! And it shows how false your statement "(And please don't think (or say!) that we are engaging in censorship here at Conservapedia, as you guys at Wikipedia do)" is!

DiEb (talk) 13:19, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Dear Ed, I understand that you prefer to discuss this via email or at Conservapedia. Wait - discuss at Conservapedia? Haven't you read the section above? Until now, you have done everything possible to avoid answering the questions on you talk page over there stopping short only from censoring the section itself (again).

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello DiEb! Your additions to Job Creators Network have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:57, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
