What is this nonsense about it being sexist? Can we please remove it? Just because one person thinks something doesn't make it valid. If some nobody decided that Hey Jude was about heroin use would you put that in? No. 2A00:23C8:E414:1F01:E09C:179:3074:2AE1 (talk) 17:47, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

if there were valid sources then it should stay on the article unless its proven to be false Gonna eatpizza (talk) 18:21, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

You cannot delete four sources without a proper explanation just because you disagree with them. Shavtara (talk) 18:21, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

(edit conflict) It's sourced, so leave it and seek consensus here, or get blocked for editwarring, your chioce. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:22, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Right, so just because there are sources means everything sourced should be included. None of you have addressed my Hey Jude question. Here's another one, plenty of people said that Queen Elizabeth II was a shape shifting monster. Nobody has disproved it. You going to put that in? I thought that Wikipedia was supposed to be reliable. But it appears that if enough people think something is true you can just stick it right in. No wonder academics dislike this site.

No, not everything that's sourced is correct, that's why we discuss and reach a consensus, that's exactly how Wikipedia works. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:30, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Gonna eat pizza says "it should stay on the article unless its proven to be false". The section is named "interpretation". You can't prove or disprove that. Even if the songwriter were to say flat out it wasn't sexist then anyone can interpret it the way they want. You still haven't given any answer to my other examples. I've been editing here for 20 years, creating over 230 articles. I was banned because my housemate vandalised, despite the fact I was autoconfirmed and had limited admin rights. Two articles I created were deleted as non notable only to be re-created by others obviously more in the clique than me. I've spent nearly 20 years on here trying to make this site factual. And I won't stop now. However i will stop editing this page. 2A00:23C8:E414:1F01:E09C:179:3074:2AE1 (talk) 18:36, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

You might be right, if so, live with it. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:37, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

So that's Wikipedia's stance, doesn't matter if anything is true, you just live with it? Nice, can I quote you on that? 2A00:23C8:E414:1F01:E09C:179:3074:2AE1 (talk) 18:42, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Well, all you have to do is prove it incorrect with reliable sources, then end of discussion, but do it here or your block will most likely increase. - FlightTime (open channel) 19:23, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

I was your housemate back then and I don't know why you are still trying to blame me for you getting banned. I was an innocent editor who got banned because you were terrorising Randiphallus anonymously from our IP address whilst you wanked in the bath. 2A02:C7C:C403:CB00:B479:B4A6:EDA:3806 (talk) 15:10, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

WTF? You're not referring to me. - FlightTime (open channel) 16:28, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Of course not, no. I'm referring to 2A00:23C8:E414:1F01:E09C:179:3074:2AE1 who made the initial post. 2A02:C7C:C403:CB00:B479:B4A6:EDA:3806 (talk) 17:18, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

What you said looks like a personal attack on another editor. Martinevans123 (talk) 14:00, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
