[edit]@User:Gnomingstuff, can you please elaborate on the maintenance tag so I can fix any perceived problems. I double checked and the sources all look correct, I'm not sure what part of the writing is setting off the alarm bells. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 03:55, 9 October 2025 (UTC)
- Sure. A lot of the stuff from the original version has been removed, but statements like
providing insights into the intricate interplay between individuals and their surrounding environment
are still the kind of non-neutral analysis that AI tends to generate and that go against WP:OR as the "analysis" is disconnected from the source. Gnomingstuff (talk) 06:30, 9 October 2025 (UTC)- Ah okay. I wrote this based on notes I took during one of her awards talks at AAG and some literature review from my comprehensive exams. I think the wording is reflective of that, I think tagging things as "tone" or "original research" is probably better then the AI tag. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 17:37, 9 October 2025 (UTC)
- Did you use AI tools, though? Gnomingstuff (talk) 06:10, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- It's been a few years, so I'm really not sure. I use Grammarly quite a bit for basic spell check, and at the time I was experimenting with running my writing through AI to improve wording (it was a new tool my advisors had instructed me to explore), so it is definitely possible. It ended up being more trouble than it was worth, but the workflow involved me writing something, then seeing whether it could be improved while maintaining the same meaning. The core content was based on citations, and citations were hunted down the old-fashioned way (AI can't really get them anyway). I did this in a writing circle under my advisor's direction after I finished comps; she had me rewrite some of my answers with AI intentionally to see how it performed, so I definitely could have used it here, but I'm not sure. I've gone over the page a few times, and the content is verifiable; AI would have been limited to minor word choice and sentence structure. The fact that it was detected makes me think I likely used it a bit here, but if so, I don't think it was significant. I've since manually reworded the sentences that were pointed out as offensive.
