I’ve read some of your articles on Wikipedia, and almost everyone of them involving current politics is slanted to the left, in fact almost to the point of libel. You’re not trading in objectivity, but in political bias. I’m a lawyer with a Harvard Law degree, and I can tell bias and tendentiousness when I see it.
If you’re the one who wrote or changed the article about Ronna McDaniel, then I have proof of your bias right there. The article starts off with every negative thing one can think of about her, and then continues in that same vein. Although the article is footnoted, I’ve read some of the footnote articles, and they are largely so-called “progressive” (leftist) opinions, rather than facts. 63.155.42.108 (talk) 06:49, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

Can you please explain how a high ranking public figure that claimed two elections were stolen or a president was illegitimate is not included on her Wikipedia profile. Shouldn’t readers know that she once said this? How can Wikipedia be neutral when it whitewashes content like this? These are direct quotes from her.

Hey, just to make sure you're aware three months prior Myrie's page also had fawning/uncited additions from Special:Contributions/Abe.nysenate, the name nomenclature was obvious enough for me to be suspicious, but I merely reverted and COI noticed them because I saw only tenuous overlapping edits for an SPI. Also, Myrie's middle initial is Y as seen as on his state leg page and twitter and the fact that "FML.nysenate" is an established localpart of a gmail address for Senate staffers, it seems like this might by Myrie himself if not someone with his initials who still works for him, for instances see "Matt Baer Director of Policy and Communications Email: msb.nysenate@gmail.com".

The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were:
Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article nomination, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

I don't know if you've ever pinged me before, but refrain from doing so in the future.

thanks for your edits--i reformulated the contributions to reflect your feedback (e.g., fewer sections) but I think a lot of this is newsworthy and widely reported. for example his political donations were a defining controversy of the republican primary and unusual for a republican ag candidate. the tibbetts affair was reported on by national media and resulted in rare condemnations from republican office holders that typically remain neutral in primaries.
also you eliminated newsworthy details about his business career and grouped his law school and government staffing under the headline of business and legal. there is stil little to no coverage of the various reported controversies from his ranching, banking and legal career. Clowncar1 (talk) 22:37, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Not sure if you saw the alternative I offered: What if we restore those topics that were included but which are now missing from the bio page Pol pos § in the form they were in prior to [ my splitting out the Pol pos page ], basically undoing part of my large edit? We could then work step-by-step from there.
Going that route, there would initially be some duplication of material that's currently in the Foreign policy section, but should be easy to resolve. I'm willing to work from there if that makes it easier for all. Humanengr (talk) 23:32, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Muboshgu, on the Paul Krugman cheerleading page, I made reference to a NYTimes op-ed written by Paul Krugman in which Paul Krugman himself says he was wrong.
Several users have tried to create a more balanced article on Paul Krugman, presenting both his good points AND BAD POINTS. The changes were being talked about (not actually made) on the TALK page. Each time, SPECIFICO summarily deletes all dissenting opinion.
How do you consider this censorship as neutral and unbiased? Where is the balance? where is the debate? How can there be a debate when one side is deleted without any consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.75.162.21 (talk) 15:43, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi Muboshgu, may I ask is there a way to edit G-Eazy’s page to where you can “pull down” his “Early life, career, and discography etc” to where there is the “pencil edit icon” for editors to edit it? For some odd reason you have to go all the way up to the top of the page and hit the pencil icon in order to edit all sections which seemingly opens the entire article, like everything isn’t separated as most usual pages on here should be. Hopefully you understand what I’m saying as it’s sorta hard to word it. Pillowdelight (talk) 01:05, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

I can confirm this Muboshgu is stonewalling me in the mark Takano wiki page. Mangbroson (talk) 19:06, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
You are incorrect and letting your emotions get in the way of my edits and you haven't responded to my rebuttal.
"In the documentary "What is a Woman?", Takano is asked a difficult question by interviewer Matt Walsh. Takano begins answering the question, leading him to abruptly end the interview early without providing a reason."
How do I cite this documentary to your satisfaction alsowukai? You didn't add anything to the talk section. Are you disputing this is true? Mangbroson (talk) 16:02, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
How do I cite this documentary to your satisfaction alsowukai? You can't. This "documentary" is WP:UNDUE for Takano's article. Your citation isn't WP:RS, not that it would overcome UNDUE, and edit isn't WP:NPOV, as well. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:51, 25 August 2022 (UTC) How is this documentary WP: UNDUE for Takano's article? I'm not arguing for or against the opinions in the documentary, I'm stating a fact. I backed up this fact with a citation that you consider unreliable. There is a simple solution - watch the documentary and you will find everything I said is true. There is no issue of neutrality if I am only stating a fact and not providing an opinion. I invited others to add or edit my writing if you think I left out certain facts about the interview. Right now, you've mentioned UNDUE, RS and NPOV as issues with my edit but none of them hold water. I don't want to assume you're arguing against my edit because of your feelings, but right now you're acting like a lawyer trying to stall a case you know you're going to lose. Finally, if you think this fact isn't relevant to his page, I would argue it is far more important than the fact that he makes teriyaki sauce with his family. I'm new to Wiki editing and learning trying to write with less hostility, but it seems you're trying to bully me into submission. @tamzin and User:@peter gulutzan can I get your opinions on this?

My edits are censored even though they are based on fact based material and properly edited, cited etc, but when I try to delete text my edit is disallowed because wiki “does not allow censorship”? Amazing. One might assume you were working to some kind of agenda. Kellogsricecrispies (talk) 16:57, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Did you read my post? I cited every.single.thing. Everything. “Unsourced content”. So my content which was carefully sourced and cited gets ditched and another source which references a dodgy “official” report insinuating drug use and carelessly disregards the reputation of the individual and his family is accepted as gospel. Way to go man, it’s great that you’ve taken the moral high ground here. Kellogsricecrispies (talk) 17:34, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

“Reliably sourced information” a rushed urinary drugs screen released by the Columbian authorities against the wishes of the family. Reliable. Right. How in gods name are people like you allowed to moderate? Kellogsricecrispies (talk) 17:36, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

I’m leaving this convo now mate, there’s no point in arguing with an idiot. Kellogsricecrispies (talk) 17:40, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
I'm not surprised this thread exists - it seems some editors have an issue with the addition of truths they don't like. Muboshgu, you should look in the mirror and ask yourself if you may be censoring legitimate content based on your personal beliefs. You've had 3 people disagree with write threads on your page just this year based on your stonewalling and censoring information. There seems to be a list of "preferred media companies" you have in your mind and if the source doesn't match this list, it is therefore not reliable. Please don't take this an attack - on the contrary, I am telling you in good faith that your personal beliefs may be interfering with the truth. Mangbroson (talk) 16:18, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

The fourth round of the WikiCup has now finished. 383 points were required to reach the final, and the new round has got off to a flying start with all finalists already scoring. In round 4, Bloom6132 with 939 points was the highest points-scorer, with a combination of DYKs and In the news items, followed by BennyOnTheLoose, Sammi Brie and Lee Vilenski. The points of all contestants are swept away as we start afresh for the final round.
At this stage, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For the remaining competitors, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them, and importantly, before the deadline on October 31st!
If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs!

Have you considered that you may be letting your biases and personal beliefs get in the way of the truth? Mangbroson (talk) 16:19, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
I have considered that, but this is an online encyclopedia. In regards to Mark Takano, you've argued that 1) my source is unreliable when it has a video of the incident I wrote about, and what I wrote was not defamatory or opinionated in any way. 2) you are arguing the incident in the documentary is not important while arguing his terayaki recipe is. In the context of his life and career, as an elected politician, how can you justify saying his interview is less important than his terayaki recipe? Seriously, what is your angle on omitting my comment? I have a hard time believing you actually consider this and non-issue. Mangbroson (talk) 16:29, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi,
My edit to Tim Ryan’s page was strictly factual.
1. There was a primary on May 3, 2022. 2. Ohioans voted for U.S. Senate candidates. 3. Tim Ryan was a democrat candidate who ran, and won against Morgan Harper and Traci Johnson.
The edits I added noted those three facts and were stated in a neutral manner. Dwigginsj3 (talk) 04:46, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
The word “controversy” was previously in bold. During my edit I accidentally merged the word with my edit and the word’s formatting was removed.

I just posted a note in the talk section about the wiki page for William Hurt. Whoever Tropic Wolf is, his commentary is blatantly right wing white supremacist, and the fact he literally has a sycophant posting his praises immediately after his first talk post about the changes he made concerns me greatly. I see you have intervened before, but I am still concerned that there will be further attempts to mangle the page from white supremacists. I really do feel you should move this up the chain, even to the point of banning Tropic Wolf from being able to make ANY edits to any wiki pages, permanently. I believe this person to an actual dangerous individual, dedicated to the exact opposite of what you believe in... truth.
thanks for taking the time to read this, signed: concerned. 121.98.228.243 (talk) 11:39, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
I just read the entire discussion. Your accusations about tropic wolf are inaccurate and defamatory. You are worried the page will be mangled by white supremacists? I'm not sure if you believe what you're saying or if you have an agenda looks Muboshgu. Either way, your attempt to silence tropic thunder is far more dangerous than his quest for fair reporting. Your "dedication to truth" is non-existent. Mangbroson (talk) 14:52, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for these, and approving SWV 36 for DYK! Music was added today, did you see? - The rose pic was taken on 11 Sep 2021, and this year was full of music that day, Tag des offenen Denkmals, not only singing in church and rehearsals for Verdi's Requiem, but two concerts at special places pictured, one a synagogue (pictured on its wall). Today three DYK: a piece we'll perform on Sunday, a violinist we heard in June playing the Berg Concerto (my brother played in the orchestra), and a Youth Orchestra shaped by a conductor who recently died.

There is plenty of room in USER TALK to explain all the many reasons you have for undoing my addition to the Matt Gaetz investigation story. I'm curious what those reasons are. Please respond. Let's try to remain politically neutral and just tell the story. The "anonymous sources" doesn't cut it because there are tons of stories here in Wiki with details that come from anonymous sources. The fact that it's being reported is often part of the story, especially when nobody refutes it. In this case, the prosecutors have NOT stepped forward to call the WaPo claim false.
