Citation for what?

I stated three facts - Gould is majority black, low-income, and has endured a population loss of approximately 50% since 2000 - in writing that can be clearly observed from data points (with citations, mind you) found elsewhere on the page. Please explain why a citation is needed for that particular statement when there are already citations for the data points used to base those observations. Is there something about seeing the information written out in sentence form that makes it uncomfortable to you? You do realize this exposes you as an absolute hack, right? 173.218.150.71 (talk) 02:50, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

@173.218.150.71 You can state any fact you want as long you cite them with a reliable source. Cheers 1AmNobody24 (talk) 08:34, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

The facts speak for themselves, and very loudly/clearly I might add, regarding Gould, Arkansas. I don't submit to made-up rules by partisan hacks acting as gatekeepers for their fake online encyclopedia that nobody serious uses aside from maybe quick-checking celebrity birthdays and deaths. You are objectively irrelevant. Cheers to you too, scumbag. 173.218.150.71 (talk) 00:48, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi, first of all, please don't call anyone a "scumbag". It doesn't resolve the debate and turns attention towards who said what to whom.

Secondly, "the facts speak for themselves" only for certain people. As somebody who has seldom visited the United States, let alone Arkansas, let alone Lincoln County, I don't know anything about this topic, so if I am to trust that Wikipedia is reliable and authoritative, I need to be able to directly see your source of information. The census data already in the article verifies that Gould is majority black, but I can't see where it verifies the claim that "the city has lost approximately 50% of its residents since the turn of the century" - where did you read that? Personal knowledge is incredibly weak, and on several occasions I have thought something was correct, only to discover it to be contradicted by sources. A website link (surrounded by <ref></ref> tags) is fine for our purposes. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 10:49, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

The historical population table on the Gould, Arkansas, main page lists the 2000 population as 1,305 (1,470 in 1990) and 663 as of 2020, which links to a reference from the US Census Bureau. Hence the comment that Gould's population has declined approximately 50% "since the turn of the century" is inarguably accurate based on referenced data points elsewhere in the article.

I'm honestly done wasting my time with people asking for "references" for data points clearly marked and referenced already. If this is what you get with an open-sourced, web-based encyclopedia, no thanks. It's an utter joke. 173.218.150.71 (talk) 04:42, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

@Ritchie333 See above. 1AmNobody24 (talk) 08:25, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

Citations for publications...?

Hello, It wasn't my edit that you reverted but I'm curious about it nonetheless. Another editor revised this page to list more of the author's publications: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gregory_Forth&oldid=1127395460, which you reverted. I'm curious though, if this is due to unsourced citations...did you expect the editor to cite Gregory Forth's Google Scholar page or something? Or literally cite the publishers' websites? (e.g. https://www.routledge.com/Images-of-the-Wildman-in-Southeast-Asia-An-Anthropological-Perspective/Forth/p/book/9780415533485) I never heard of citing the existence of publications other than, well, listing them. How did you intend the wiki editor to cite Forth's publications? BlakeALee (talk) 00:28, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

@BlakeALee The easiest way is with the ISBN see WP:ISBN 1AmNobody24 (talk) 07:22, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Ah okay, thank you! BlakeALee (talk) 22:45, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi, De Sade isn’t a living person. Also his crimes are sourced just a paragraph later, about imprisoning the teenagers in his chateau 2603:8000:CF01:6AAD:142D:43A3:2F46:49B (talk) 14:45, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

True, he's a dead person and which source says he imprisoned teenagers? 1AmNobody24 (talk) 14:51, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Exactly. For sex purposes which is why I used it in his description. Fits — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8000:CF01:6AAD:142D:43A3:2F46:49B (talk) 15:18, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

All i read is The novel relates the saga of four depraved aristocrats who imprison 28 teenage victims of both sexes, torturing and finally murdering their prey. Which doesn't say he did it. If thats what you mean. 1AmNobody24 (talk) 15:43, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
