Talk:Bardonia

Subject of the article
Due to an ongoing edit dispute in which the user EmperorCheese12 made major adjustments to the article without prior discussion with the article's other editors. Subsequently, the user Fynd1, JurassicParkRex and Mozazio have reverted the edit in questions. The parties involved have since reverted each other's edits for the duration of two weeks. The user EmperorCheese12 continued to reinstate their edit even after being contacted on the matter by the user Mozazio.

At the core of the conflict appears to be a disagreement on whether the article concerns the "Soldiers' Republic of Bardonia", as was previously ruled by the wiki team, or a different entity. Since the wiki rules clearly state that "cases [to resolve user disagreements] will only be considered if all good faith attempts at communication between the disputing parties have failed." Thereby, the wiki moderation will only concern itself with the matter at hand once the parties involved, particularly the editors mentioned above, have attempted to engage in good faith discussion and were unable or unwilling to reach consensus on the matter.

Now, all parties involved in the conflict, particularly the users mentioned above, are welcome to use this talk page to discuss the subject of this article and how that subject should be presented. When doing so, you are requested to sign your edits by putting four tildes ~ at the end of your edit and indenting your contribution using : at the start of the post. For an example, refer to my answer to this below.

Should the editors fail to engage in good faith discussion on the matter until April 29, 2024, 00:00 GMT, the wiki moderation will open a joint ticket on the matter on the official Stoneworks Discord to resolve the user conflict through an authoritative ruling. Until the edit conflict has been resolved by the parties involved or through a ruling by the wiki moderation, the article will remain protected. Metagall (talk) 22:52, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Proposed Changes
Bardonia is now in Abex identifying under the formal and informal name of Bardonia. This has been signed on multiple political documents as well as our national announcement. Being the current leader of Bardonia, as well as the oldest and most informed Bardonian of our lore and history, I would like to update the page with the following:

I would like to move all in-depth histories of the past governments to their individual pages and instead of listing the history in text on Bardonia's page, list links to the individual pages so the full history can be read through each page, decluttering the wiki page.

Each government will be acknowledged and listed based on government death. In a prior wiki ticket it was agreed via wiki staff all previous governments would be split into their individual pages and the current active government would inhabit the Bardonia page. In a prior wiki ticket it was agreed via wiki staff the "Bardonia" pagename is to be used for the entity that is most relevant for user searches of the term "Bardonia". At the moment I would present that the currently most relevant Bardonia would be the current and geopolitically active Bardonia.

Since the current Bardonia identifies itself and has only ever identified itself as Bardonia (a successor to the latest 7th empire) I will use the Bardonia Hub page to update current Bardonian information (listing the historic governments directly under the nation's origins)

I will update the flag, the map claims, the government, and add the current lore of Bardonia onto the page, leaving the in-depth information to each government to be carried by their own page.

If current Bardonia disbands or changes governments I will take all the updated information and document it into an individual page for itself and listing it in the chronological history order.

Removing all previous government information and individualizing it in singular archive pages will also make any future disputes easier to discuss since all government history would be separated.

I believe that this method of updating the page is the most efficient and the path of least resistance, so we may unlock the page itself and everyone can list their respective government information in the individual pages which would assist in zoning in on the disputed information since right now it's disputed in mass (mostly regarding Government History).

Thank You,

 * Thank you kindly for the detailed contribution and starting a discussion on this matter. The claim that "in a prior wiki ticket it was agreed via wiki staff all previous governments would be split into their individual pages and the current active government would inhabit the Bardonia page" is not accurate. Instead, the wiki team ruled that the "Bardonia" pagename is to be used for the entity that is most relevant for user searches of the term "Bardonia".
