Wikipedia talk:But it's true!

Needed?

This just restates in other words what no original research already says. 108.21.104.134 (talk) 19:41, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

"But it's false!"

as a reason for removing content — a little more tricky.

Reality

"It is also likely that even when the other party disagrees with your edit, they believe you were acting in good faith as well."

A world where people believe others were acting in good faith? Are you kidding? If there is vandalism in articles, the person who reverted certainly does not think like this. --2.245.65.151 (talk) 02:56, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Digressions and trivia

Is there a place in this essay for digressions and trivia?

• Digression: "I know these four detailed paragraphs about the language L are true, but this is the article on country C. There's already an article on L, and some of the content in these four paragraphs is even about uses of L in other places other than C. Here, we really need only state that L is spoken in C."
• Trivia: "I know it's true that so-and-so happens to have mentioned in one of his hundreds of videos, perhaps because it was relevant to something else he was saying in that video, that there was an Italian community in the neighborhood where he grew up. But this doesn't tie in with any substantive information given about him elsewhere in the article, leading us to wonder, "So what?" It's trivia that provides us no information about him."

A note

Reporters can bypass this by writing it in their newspapers and citing them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nononsense101 (talk • contribs) 19:13, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
