About Jupeb Program
I referenced an article on a site i came across and found very useful containing updated information about an educational program in Nigeria called JUPEB which secures admission into 200level in Nigerian Universities. But i found out that the citation was removed. I checked wikipedia external link guidelines and i noticed it doesn't violate any policy. I tried replacing this citation https://campuslead.com.ng/list-of-all-examination-bodies-in-nigeria-everything-you-need-to-know/ already on the page in [in Nigeria] to https://shoreloop.com/jupeb-program-all-you-need-to-know/. As the new citation will be more useful to its readers, who would like to know more about Jupeb. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kevten (talk • contribs) 19:34, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
- You replaced existing links with obvious linkspam. MrOllie (talk) 19:41, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
Restored revision on Green Chemistry page
Hello, thank you for leaving a message and of course I understand the approach you mentioned. For many years of studying chemistry, it is a subject close to my heart. This makes Green Chemistry all the more important to me, as it is now an essential factor towards solving the ecological problems the world is facing. I thought that relating Green Chemistry to industry would be an interesting point of view to expand the available content. Because of the country I live in, I used it as an example and when looking for valuable sources related to the industry, the ones mentioned were the most reliable in my opinion. The repeated links from one organisation may have caused some concern, but these were the two substantive articles I relied on. Because of their similarity I could possibly use only one to avoid multiple links to one company, but in my opinion it is a worthwhile source of knowledge as an example of Green Chemistry development in the chemical industry on an international scale. I would be grateful for a possible re-verification after presenting my point of view. Thanks again for your message! Emmasi90 (talk) 07:53, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
Removed educational resources link on software cracking
Hello there. I noticed that you deleted this section recently. I had hoped to add it as a guidepost for neophytes in reversing. Why destroy the hard-to-find information if the main issue was just the reference links? Why not just remove the links? Would it be ok if I restored the information without any of the links included? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:282:B00:B300:C42B:806E:F103:C811 (talk) 21:14, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is specifically not supposed to be a howto site or a link directory. The point is that there were no reliable secondary sources. Removing unreliable links would still leave no reliable secondary sources. It would not be OK to restore that information, it is off-mission for Wikipedia. - MrOllie (talk) 21:17, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
Removed Philosophy section on Old_Red_Cracker
Hello again, sir (or ma'am). I find it odd that you removed this section. +ORC's primary purpose in publishing material was to propagate his anti-capitalism philosopy. +Fravia's pages on reverse engineering have been the primary source of information regarding +ORC for 25 years and cited in several published works, including books and peer-reviewed journals. Can you explain how this does not belong on wikipedia when the +ORC page goes belong? You may delete the entire page if you like. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:282:B00:B300:C42B:806E:F103:C811 (talk) 21:58, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
- Wikipedia really isn't interested in what people say about themselves, we're interested in what independent, reliable sources say. Lengthy quotes by the article subject or by people associated with them don't belong here. We also have to write neutrally, and those additions were decidedly not neutral. MrOllie (talk) 22:06, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
- That makes sense. Why then remove these primary sources?

Why Talk About This Specific Plugin
MrOllie Greetings MrOllie, a new section was created on this Wikipedia page for the Classic Editor Plugin, and as is noted in that section, the goal of the Classic Editor Plugin is to give people the Classic Editor experience despite core updating itself to the Gutenberg Editor. The information about the Gutenberg Plugin that was reverted is notable because it was created by WordPress and added to their repository prior to being included in Core. Yet, even though it's been in Core for quite some time now, WordPress is still actively updating this plugin, and there are over 400,000 active installations. The bad ratings for the Gutenberg Plugin (2 stars) specifically speaks to why a Classic Editor Plugin exists, created by independent contributors (not mentioned in the article), whereas the Gutenberg Plug was created by WordPress (the TOPIC of the page). Mention of both Plugins go hand in hand. It's remiss or incomplete to mention one and not the other, as it helps the facts be even fuller and richer when included. Respectfully. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jdphiladelphia (talk • contribs) 00:29, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
