You are mentioned in passing...

Remove unsourced content on BLP without waiting

Hey Horse Eye Jack, Thanks for tagging the unsourced information here. But according to policy you should just go ahead and removed it anyway. So I removed it. Feel free to remove other unsourced and poorly sourced info at any BLP.VR _talk 03:41, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

In general I will leave what appears to be uncontroversial and non-derogatory text on a BLP (especially basic biographical information) up for a day or two after tagging in the hopes that someone watching that page will swoop in with a citation (it happens more times than you’d think). Obviously you do it a little differently and I have no problem with you immediately removing the information (its certainly well supported by the relevant policies/guidelines). Horse Eye Jack (talk) 16:56, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Another thing, I saw you made a couple of comments at Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#Is_Nonie_Darwish_a_reliable_source?. Do you have any opinion on the reliability of the source? If so, I'd appreciate it if you could make it clear in that section.VR _talk 19:02, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Military Superiority

Do you think that Military superiority should be a redirect to either Overmatch or Full-spectrum dominance, or possibly a new article? power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:00, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Probably its own article, they’re all similar concepts but they’re different enough in content and context for each to have its own article. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 19:50, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Lisa Wilson-Foley

The article Lisa Wilson-Foley you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Lisa Wilson-Foley for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Dahua Technology. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Please read the citation before making silly revert. Central Huijin Investment owned 1% of the Dahua Technology. Matthew hk (talk) 18:09, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Your edit summary implied that they didn't own any at all... You said "del false info on ownership” but the info you deleted never said how much they owned they just said they owned some. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 18:19, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Nope, some editors tagged the infobox of the company as partial state-owned enterprise. And a sane media won't list 1% government ownership as notable or mention it at lede. Matthew hk (talk) 18:21, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

If thats your argument than you’re admitting your edit summary was incomplete as it didnt include the major action taken on the edit. If you want to run around giving out warning templates over your bad edit summaries thats your prerogative but I wouldn’t make a habit of it. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 18:24, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

My edit summary don't have problem just like |owner= Template:Infobox company meant "notable" owner that defined in Template:Infobox company/doc. If i own share of a listed company, even 1%, i don't think there is any media to report me as "notable" owner. Same thing apply to Dahua Technology, if you can really find a responsible media company to have a news article that report "Central Huijin " as "owner", then we may reconsider readding Central Huijin back to the article. Matthew hk (talk) 18:29, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

If your edit summary is misleading or incomplete don’t blame others for not understanding what you meant. Your argument about the text in the lead (not the bit in the infobox) appears to be one of due weight not of factuality, again either your edit summary was bad or you’re making multiple conflicting arguments here.

Taiwan Somaliland

Hey, I saw you were cracking skulls on the Foreign Relations of Taiwan page, and I wanted to tell you about a new development in Somaliland Taiwan relations [1] Does this news change anything on that page? I'm not sure, so I thought I would ask you. Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:37, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

It doesn't really change much, although the coverage would explain why a Somali nationalist turned up and went all vandal... The only change with the recent round of stories is that there probally is enough coverage for a stand alone article for the mission like Taipei Trade Office in the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Taipei Liaison Office in the Republic of South Africa, etc and now that its open such a creation wouldnt be premature.
