Moving or copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Socialism into Socialism (economic system). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. --Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:08, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Reliable sources

You added a reference to the lead of Confirmation bias, a Featured Article. Unfortunately, that book is by VDM Publishing who are notorious for copying their books from.... Wikipedia. That was a circular reference. See WP:ALPHASCRIPT and WP:PUS. Check Google Book hits carefully before using them as a source. Fences&Windows 00:43, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

@Fences and windows: I was not aware of VDM's reputation, but wanted to add that I was the one who originally added the sentence "It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning." from VDM in 2014 (I did not have a Wikipedia account back then). VDM did not copy that sentence, at least, from Wikipedia, if that's what you are suggesting. Vrrajkum (talk) 21:26, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
VDM is also the source that I used to rephrase the lead sentence from "favor information" to "search for or interpret information", also in 2014. Vrrajkum (talk) 21:38, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
Of course you weren't aware or you'd not have used the source. This is how they make money out of buyers, especially libraries - they dupe people. Yes, VDM did copy it from Wikipedia and you using VDM as a source merely reinserted old wording originally found in Wikipedia itself. See this old version of the article from October 2009, for example. Please don't use VDM/Alphascript/Betascript books as a source. Fences&Windows 22:02, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
@Fences and windows: I see. My mistake, thanks for letting me know. Vrrajkum (talk) 04:17, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

ArbCom Elections 2016: Voting now open!

Hello, Vrrajkum. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:08, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Late ping

Notifications from discussions (pings) do not work unless added in the same edit as a valid signature. Thus this edit did not produce a notification. ―Mandruss ☎ 23:11, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

DS alert: Donald Trump

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

You commented in the discussion about whether to use ISIS or ISIL. Four hours later, having received no reply there, you modified the article per your viewpoint on the matter. That is not how it works, especially at an article under the ArbCom remedies. I would suggest that you self-revert and continue to participate in the discussion. ―Mandruss ☎ 18:13, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

I have (I think) reverted all of this edit. Again, please do not make edits to content under discussion. ―Mandruss ☎ 22:09, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Prologue to Covenant

Your edit for this from this morning was reverted on Alien: Covenant. Start Talk on the Talk page there if needed prior to edits. ManKnowsInfinity (talk) 19:48, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

@ManKnowsInfinity: Why do you feel that the Michelangelo statue should be mentioned? It's true, but to me it seems like an excessive degree of detail for a plot summary. Vrrajkum (talk) 21:57, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
The reviews in the Critical reviews section of the article by Edelstein and Wilkinson are both in agreement as to the depiction of David as a Frankenstein monster in the film, Wilkinson even compares him to "Satan" in her review. The only hint the film gives of this level of malevolent behavior in David early in the film is his choice of King David, the King of Israel, as a role model for himself. That seems notable as an indication of the extremity of David's malevolence which appears later in the film and as summarized by Edelstein and Wilkinson.
