2024 England riots

edit

  Please be aware of WP:3RR in your edits to 2024 England riots and keep count of edits that unambiguously count as reverts. You are not alone against the darkness.-- Toddy1 (talk) 12:59, 3 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reminding me. I'll ignore the BLPCRIME violations per NOT3RR, but will avoid reverting anything else. It does feel like the IP addresses are taking over though, hopefully the page can be protected again soon. CNC (talk) 13:07, 3 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Citing news streams often labelled as "Live Reporting"

In other articles I have seen, people have cited news streams. The URL they gave was for the news stream. At the time they made the edit, it seemed to work. It was not as bad as citing the front page of a news website - but there was still a problem because the stories on show changed with time. This meant that someone looking at the article months later had difficulty verifying information.

If you look at the relevant page for today in the BBC website you will see that https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0jqjxe8d1yt is the URL for the page.

But if you look at individual stories on the page, for example: Protesters face off in Weymouth, there is a button marked Share at the bottom of the story. If you then copy the link you will get this url: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0jqjxe8d1yt?post=asset%3Af9607b97-2f2e-4cec-9fc1-607461858b87#post This gets you to that particular story. And even if 20 more stories are added to the news stream, that URL should get you to the story in question.

Please bear this in mind when making edits to 2024 United Kingdom riots.-- Toddy1 (talk) 17:46, 4 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Far-right riots

edit

This might need to be a disambiguation page, given things like Unite the Right rally, etc. Otherwise, looks good. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.9% of all FPs. 19:27, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

To be honest I was surprised this wasn't already a disambg when I created it, surely there have been far-right riots before was my thinking. I don't see any references to far-right riots in the Unite the Right rally, though can obviously understand the suggestion of relevance. I'm happy for it to whatever is considered useful and meaningful at this point. CNC (talk) 21:49, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Summarising two sections in Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–present)

edit

Can you help to summarise July 2024 and August 2024. In Israel – Hamas War I think that we should include at least some of the claims of IDF and Hamas or at least sources to avoid violation of WP:NPOV.Pachu Kannan (talk) 03:55, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Will have a look at it later today and see what I can do. CNC (talk) 14:33, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
