Stormfront (edit|talk|history|protect|delete|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Proposal[edit]

  1. This website created Alt-right which is missional. the webshite is still popular for white supremacists even if it isn't remember relevancy ≠ Notability.I have significantly expanded the article by talking about its spinoff website,Murders associated with stormfront and the BUGS troll campaign Reichtangle (talk) 16:50, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

These 4 votes are on hold unless non-socking is confirmed:

  • Pewpiedie (talk) 12:48, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
  • So I have seen the article and it looks mostly fine (most of the issues have been fixed) − Prussia1870 (talk) 05:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
  • Seems issues fixed, would keep . DecemberRebmeced (talk) 22:23, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
    Has anyone checked that the synopses on our site agree with what was actually said on the Stormfront? I have not; I only checked in two cases where the synopses seemed peculiar. I read every synopsis: I gave up at some point. Bongolian (talk) 17:28, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
  • so I checked and it looks fine to me the issues are mostly fixed. WarioApiration (talk) 06:50, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Status quo[edit]

  1. Reichtangle, I appreciate your effort. But you require copyediting after said efforts for them to merit brainstars. Chillpilled (talk) 12:54, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
    yeah I've been fixing some of my grammar/punctuation mistakes,would appreciate if you could help. I have one month to fix the mistakes. ←§ Reichtangle (talk) 15:22, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
  2. Yeah, needs more copyediting. I'll have another look after Chillpilled finishes. Bongolian (talk) 05:11, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
    The problems encountered so far: The photo of Bob Whitaker (a Reagan appointee) was of the wrong person (Bob Whittaker, a Congressman). There have been problems with inconsistent verb tense. There have been a few cases of paraphrases of Stormfront users but no citation for them (I deleted these, no loss for the section overall). There have been a few cases of misinterpretation of what was said by the Stormfront user. Formatting of references has been inconsistent. I'm still plowing my way through the page. Bongolian (talk) 17:28, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
    I've have been for the past few days trying to fix the verb tenses and formating of the references ←§ Reichtangle (talk) 07:53, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
    the formatting issue is solved and I fixed many of the verb tenses ←§ Reichtangle (talk) 08:38, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
  3. There are still sections with poor grammar. Plutocow (talk) 22:28, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
    took your advice ←§ Reichtangle (talk) 08:36, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
  4. Using alts to vote? Are you fucking kidding me? Pizza SLICE.gifChef Moosolini’s Ristorante ItalianoMake a Reservation 03:33, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
  5. Article needs considerably more work with less-than-stellar grammar and a lack of appropriate citations for multiple sections/quotes, and the potential sockpuppetry by the proposer makes me a tad bit wary of their motives for demoting this article. Sincerely, Postuhenin the neurodivergent doodlebug! (say hi! ^^) 21:35, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Goat[edit]

  1. Four yes votes from four recently created accounts that all exhibit the same general pattern of editing appears very suspicious to me. @Pewpiedie @Prussia1870 @DecemberRebmeced @WarioApiration @Reichtangle Sockpuppetry is not explicitly disallowed here, but vote rigging is considered a violation of community standards. Please correct me it I'm wrong. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 23:19, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
  2. Wow, 184 refs. And I thought the 78 I did yesterday was 'lots'. KarmaPolice (talk) 19:27, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
