Babylon Bee

Hi Squatch347! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of The Babylon Bee several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:The Babylon Bee, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Margen74 (talk) 14:51, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Margen74, the Babylon Bee is one of the pages I normally review for edits. I'm not sure I would label my reverts as falling inside of Edit Warring. They are generally reverts of vandalism, including antisemitic comments of late. I'm generally under the impression that we should be incredibly cautious with articles that are WP:BLPs; especially if that content is WP:BLPSource. Primary sources should be discussed on the talk page prior to being added. I would sympathize with your 'deletionist' position when it comes to BLPs especially.

This specific addition falls squarely into that camp I think. I'm also not sure what it adds and has a lot of WP:OR feel to it. There is no secondary source providing context to the larger story or why it would be important to point out. The relevant content is at the 7 minute mark of the linked video and it doesn't quite accurately reflect the tone of the comment as well. Those are the reasons I reverted that edit.
