XIV:Templates for discussion/Log/2011 December 19#Template:Islamophobia - result: no consensus.

Hi Thismess, your recent edit Special:Diff/1184227836 (which I reverted in Special:Diff/1190199519) removed all media organizations from this template. Your edit was accompanied by your removal of this template from a number of articles about anti-Muslim websites listed in this template, including the following edits:

• Special:Diff/1184228528: Removal of template from Document.no article
• Special:Diff/1185635572: Removal of template from FrontPage Magazine article
• Special:Diff/1185983678: Removal of template from Jihad Watch article

While your edit summary in Special:Diff/1184227836 claims that your edits are supported by consensus, it is unclear which discussions that claim is based on. The corresponding template for antisemitism, Template:Antisemitism sidebar, has the sections "Antisemitic publications" and "Antisemitism on the Internet" which contain lists of antisemitic media outlets that are much more comprehensive than the "Media" section of this template is for anti-Muslim websites, so there is clearly no consensus to remove all media organizations from all templates related to discrimination. I have reverted all of the removals per WP:BRD pending discussion. — Newslinger talk 07:49, 19 December 2023 (UTC)※

I have encountered problems with Thismess's removal's of categories in the past, to do with islamophobia in instances where Thismess has claimed (in edit summaries) that the articles in question don't support the categories. Simple googles searches. And the addition of sourced material have indicated that the articles do support said categories. I have thought about leaving warnings on Thismess's page in relation to this. But I couldn't be, bothered. TarnishedPath 10:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)※

​In the spirit of WP:BRD, it would make sense to leave a message on the talk page of the article when these removals are reverted. This provides a record of the reversion that is more easily accessible than the article history. And lets other editors get a better understanding of what the consensus is should the removals be made. Or proposed again. — Newslinger talk 02:17, 7 January 2024 (UTC)※

I will do so in future. TarnishedPath 02:29, 7 January 2024 (UTC)※
