We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "Shriners" was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that. Such articles are usually too complex. They need to be simplified before or immediately after being added to the Simple English Wikipedia. In addition, be sure to include attribution on the article's talk page. Thank you. Auntof6 (talk) 17:43, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Page moves[change source]
- Please do not use the page move facility at present. It needs a lot of experience to use that correctly. Thank you. Macdonald-ross (talk) 18:54, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
Please do not make unhelpful changes to Wikipedia, like you did to Benito Mussolini. The changes you made seem to be vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you want to try changing Wikipedia to learn more about how it works, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Macdonald-ross (talk) 20:21, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
I did not make an unhelpful change. Mussolini was NOT an Athiest, he was a Christian (denomination Roman Catholic). Hitler was a Roman Catholic, too. MisterJoeP (talk) 09:07, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
- I don't think so, because baptism is not the responsibility of the child. In any event, we go by the consensus of experts. The Hitler case is discussed at great length on [1]
- And the discussion of Mussolini is under the heading of Atheism and anti-clericism on the En wiki page.
- Consequently, I think to baldly say that their religion is RC is a WP:POV which runs against the consensus. Both these cases are well documented. Macdonald-ross (talk) 11:26, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
From now on, you should not move pages without discussion. You moved a page "Masturbation" to a title "Onanism" without good reason or discussion. This is the exact reverse of what we need. The page title "Masturbation" is far better known, and so it is better for us. Macdonald-ross (talk) 13:01, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
