Does this article need quite so many illustrations? edit
I wanted to thank you for your recent contribution to the Erotic humiliation article. I'd also like to express my sympathy at the way you were treated by the third editor involved. The editor in question was not particularly WP:CIVIL in his tone to you. I also do not agree with the decision to abruptly revert your edit, particularly as there was an ongoing discussion and you were not given the opportunity of replying first. You had raised the idea over a month before and it had received no objections, but instead some indirect support from me. I agree with everything you wrote on the article's talk page. However, the editor's position seems to be a form of skepticism requiring an impossible level of proof over a value judgement, combined with an apparent view that WP:NOTCENSORED trumps everything. I've come across this sort of thing before, and I've usually found it difficult to overcome. Attracting a large enough number of other voices to achieve consensus is difficult with an obscure topic such as this. And involving an Admin is usually more trouble than it's worth. So like you, I'm going to leave this article to others. I just wanted to reassure you of the quality of your contribution and tell you that WP could do with more editors like you. - Polly Tunnel (talk) 13:59, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Polly Tunnel: Thank you, I really appreciate it. Ideally this sort of thing would be treated no differently than any other form of WP:FANCRUFT, but I'm not at all surprised to hear it isn't. The difference between uncensored and needlessly prurient is a hard one to pin down without making the kind of value judgments that the more punctilious editors bristle at, and I don't think I'll ever have the patience to argue the specifics of policy with that kind of person. Thanks again for the kind words, —MasqueDesRonces (talk) 16:58, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Thank you so much for Teaching me, Sir! And let me know where I am going wrong in Link citation! — Preceding unsigned comment added by GavinBechtold (talk • contribs) 11:42, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- With the best will in the world, I suspect you already know what you're doing wrong, which is inserting links to irrelevant, recently created websites in random articles in order to boost their SEO. --MasqueDesRonces (talk) 12:31, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
