The exceptions to the extended confirmed restriction are:
Non-extended-confirmed editors may use the "Talk:" namespace only to make edit requests related to articles within the topic area, provided they are not disruptive.

With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:
Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Also, reverts made solely to enforce the extended confirmed restriction are not considered edit warring.

Editors who violate any listed restrictions may be blocked by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.
An editor must be aware before they can be sanctioned.
With respect to any reverting restrictions:
Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions. In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as clear vandalism.
Clear vandalism of any origin may be reverted without restriction.
Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.

There are a lot of sources cited for that statement, but they all seem to be backing up the fact that it's pro-Assad, pro-Russia, et cetera, rather than backing up whether Mint Press News is leftist.
I realize that the far left has adopted an anti-Israel position over the past two decades. However, I would argue that the far right (as opposed to the mainstream right) has been anti-Israel for much longer. And the other positions listed -- supporting Assad, Russia, Iran, and MintPress News supports Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, and the governments of Russia, Iran, and Syria. It opposes the governments of Israel and Saudi Arabia, and reports geopolitical events from an spreading pro-Russian propaganda and conspiracy theories -- are all ones I associate with the far right.
I'm very much aware that the far left has been targeted with Russian propaganda over the past year in particular. But I'd like to see an argument for its adoption of the other positions here if we're calling this site far left. Is this generally accepted now? Oakling (talk) 02:04, 30 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
