If you were objecting to the percentages, why did you do a full revert here [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Turkey&curid=11125639&diff=1212647366&oldid=1212433410], deleting the reliably sourced information in footnotes?

:Huh? I object to the addition of unnecessary pointless clutter, not the percentages. [[User:DeCausa|DeCausa]] ([[User talk:DeCausa#top|talk]]) 23:26, 8 March 2024 (UTC) |

::You are making edits not even aware of what you are changing? Did you see the footnotes? [[User:Bogazicili|Bogazicili]] ([[User talk:Bogazicili|talk]]) 23:34, 8 March 2024 (UTC) |

:::::::Look, you have an agenda that you are driving through. I genuinely couldn't care less either way - i'm well used to these local political arguments on WP that I have no direct interest in. But what when it starts interfering in reader usability I do care. You won't have any idea what I'm talking about.

You cite "unfamiliar terms". Are we "dumbing down" for the general population, as have done the newspapers? Why oppose a more accurate term if it is appropriate? Perhaps the average American dummies will refer to the dictionary (or Wiktionary), and be the better for it. Just curious.

:Ha! Resisting changing from "male Polygamy" to "polygyny" is dumbing down! We have a global audience of one billion views per day. That article could be read by a teenager in Kenya whose 3rd language is English one day and a professor in Massachusetts the next day. If you're not willing to "dumb down" for the "general population" then you need to find a different hobby than Wikipedia. Mind you, I also wouldn't describe pointlessly expanding text without adding meaning (which is how I would describe the verbosity of some of your aditions)) as struggling against "dumbing down". But if you stay you need to follow our policies - that includes not adding text that is unsupported by the existing citation. That's a breach of [[WP:V]] as explained in [[WP:HIJACK]]. In future, if you have any points to make on edits on anrticle do so on the article talk page please. [[User:DeCausa|DeCausa]] ([[User talk:DeCausa#top|talk]]) 19:54, 5 April 2024 (UTC) |

::Fair enough. I still, however, oppose the notion that a writer within any context other than children's literature (I would venture to suggest that Wikipedia is for adult consumption by dint of its inherent nature...perhaps a "Kids Wiki" is called for?) should attempt to tailor his writing to his audience, but rather should hope of improving the minds of his audience by encouraging expansion of syntactic awareness and vocabulary. the reader should raise himself to the level of the literature, rather than the writer lowering himself to the level of a reader which he might imagine. I only contacted you directly, on your own talk page, because I am only interested in your own opinions as they pertain to this specific instance; I have no intent to clutter your personal space. Your complaint about the desirability of a reference is valid. my defense would be that the suggestion is entirely obvious. Thanks for the brief engagement, and take care. |

Hi, in this discussion, so as not to create further misunderstandings, is it possible to change the title of the question? (spelled without dash, https://www.parmigianoreggiano.com/it/). JacktheBrown (talk) 23:16, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
