Disambiguation link notification for October 4

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Maryland House, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Carvel (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in iPhone 5S, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Also see how this stuff is referenced in other smartphone articles. ViperSnake151 Talk 19:49, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your welcome. I didn't know about that there's an M.O.S. for the most part. I don't know if a few things were would help for that iPhone but I was thinking about it for an possible bit. And also, one guy took it out but I told him that I got it thru Apple's website (where they always tell about the Tech Specs). But thanks for the note and the reminder to put it at an encyclopedic appearance. Thanks, and I hope you have an good day. 20chances - 10:18 PM, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

October 2016

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Your recent additions to Dutch television articles seem to be sheer publicity, without WP:Reliable sources. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 18:25, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I read your notice on my Talk Page and hopped over here, but I don't see anything from you regarding the message I left above. The big problem is that your editing has no WP:Reliable sources, which must be neutral and not affiliated with the organization you are writing about. Thanks. ~!BeenAroundAWhile (talk)

Reference errors on 17 October

Hello, I'm ReferenceBot. I have automatically detected that an edit performed by you may have introduced errors in referencing. It is as follows:

On the NFL International Series page, your edit caused a broken reference name (help). (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, ReferenceBot (talk) 00:50, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Live Scoring

Live scores and live updates

Please do not update statistics or scores while a match is in progress. Instead, wait until the match has finished before updating.
There is a consensus not to add live scores and not to update any statistics while a match is in progress (including the result prior to a penalty shoot-out).
Without live updates it is easier to avoid duplicate information and errors being published on the article.

Just a reminder, no live updates while a match is ungoing. Thanks. Bmf 051 (talk) 00:53, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please use an – instead of - for scores, per MOS:ENDASH. So 2–0 instead of 2-0. Bmf 051 (talk) 00:58, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work on updating pages. Two things...

Check the headers of tables you insert with ATSC 3.0 data to make sure you're not mentioning PSIP. Remember, PSIP is a thing in ATSC 1.0 only.
Add Category:ATSC 3.0 television stations where appropriate to ATSC 3.0 lighthouse station pages.

Thanks for letting me know. I still have a couple of things to fix on so it may need some time. I appreciate the tips though! 20chances (talk) 07:26, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

March 2021

When adding links to material on external sites, as you did to WNYW, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube or Sci-Hub, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you believe the linked site is not violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:

If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page;
If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note on the article Talk page with a link to where we can find that note;
If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note on the article Talk page;

If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead. BlueboyLINY (talk) 05:29, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize if I wasn't aware about it.20chances (talk) 05:40, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

NJ Devils

In the future, if you choose to edit the Devils page, you can use the game sheets provided by the NHL to help you fill in the 'Decision' and 'Attendance' columns in the game log. The links can be found by scrolling to the bottom of the game recaps under 'Game Summary'. If you're still not sure how to fill in the columns, please let another editor edit the page, that way they don't have to go through the hassle of having to fix your edits. Yowashi (talk) 02:53, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe that could help but yeah. As for others? Like decision? 20chances (talk) 03:20, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

'Decision' is the goaltender that was credited with the win/loss. In the game sheet under the 'Goaltender Summary' section, it will have both of the goaltenders that are dressed for each team. There will be a (W), (L) or (OT) mark next to the goaltender. Whichever goaltender has those markings next to them, that is the goaltender that you fill the 'decision' column with. Yowashi (talk) 04:36, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ohh, now I see. Now I'm getting it now. Thanks very much for the tips. :D 20chances (talk) 04:42, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Website" means the actual website and not the Wikilink to the article about it here. That is why it is not appropriate. Don't replace websites with Wikilinks. It's not the source. Curly Suix (talk) 09:20, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The problem with using just "ABC 7" as their name of the website especially for using it as the name of the website in the article is that it is not directly mentioning the actual source that is responsible to creating the article, especially if you have the website's name being almost similar to each other. You have to understand, there's multiple stations where an ABC station is in Channel 7 and even with the "ABC 7" Branding, especially in California where there's two of them, it's too vague because it is not fully explicitly mentioning Which station the article is exactly produced from. Even how I've seen many citations I've seen that obtain an article from a TV Station in different Wikipedia Articles will often get mention the TV Station explicitly as the source since the name of the Station's website may is vague. Even for me, I'm better off mentioning the Station's call letters should they need to be cited. I've done that before many times and I've often seen no problem for the most part. 20chances (talk) 11:46, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

'alt' section

Remove the things you've written in the 'alt' section. 'Alt' means alternative title, not a description of poster. I hope you will understand this. Thank you. Happy editing! Shinnosuke15, 04:52, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

They are not "alt titles". They are alternative text. This is for the images and they count as a description of an image. You should refer to MOS:ALT for more info on it. 20chances (talk) 04:55, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've read on Template:Infobox film. Sorry for my mistake. Shinnosuke15, 05:00, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay. I know people don't get things at first glance. I appreciate your understanding. 20chances (talk) 05:03, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

March 2022

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Jim McKelvey, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 16:52, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddst1:, He's still already part of Block and was mentioned as a co-founder of the company, per Company Website. The company was renamed a while ago. I don't know if you did it, but someone perhaps mentioned that he was a board of director of the company, and it was already cited. 20chances (talk) 17:33, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Directors are not employees. They are directors. They can be both but that does not appear to be the case. Please revert. Toddst1 (talk) 01:24, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddst1: But with all due respect, he was also the founder. They also count as employees. They technically were employees when they founded the company. 20chances (talk) 01:25, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

He was an employee as founder, yes. He does not appear to be an active employee at this time, so labeling him as an employee is not correct. Toddst1 (talk) 01:28, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddst1:But I honestly don't get why you absolutely have to remove him from the category despite the you claimed he was not "an active employee at this time". I already created the category to identify people who are involved in the operations of the company. That also includes former employees who used to work for the company as well. Even similar category like "Twitter People" indicate who worked for the company. 20chances (talk) 01:32, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Twitter people are not Twitter employees. This category is specific - Block employees. There's no ambiguity. Toddst1 (talk) 01:36, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddst1:I was referring to the Twitter People category. I also used the IBM Employees category as a base model for the category I made, which did mentioned people who worked with the company, Past and Present. I honestly was trying to be sure I have anyone who were current or former employees to be mentioned in the category. Still, I honestly feel upset that you removed someone who was involved in the company despite the fact, I was doing the right thing anyhow. 20chances (talk) 01:39, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Look, your heart is clearly in the right place, but you can't let yourself be upset by a petty disagreement on Wikipedia. Life is way too short for that. Toddst1 (talk) 01:44, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Toddst1:, While I appreciate the empathy, I still have strong disagreements with you on your revision. As I said, I made that category myself after Square was renamed to Block to help identify people who are associated with the company, weather the founded the company, or in involved as a director, as well as current and former employees. I still feel it's best that I ask everyone else on this instead of having it stand on your position. Perhaps, I rather take this to the talk page and see a consensus that he should be in the category, which I strongly agree on. 20chances (talk) 01:53, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

why you keep reverting my edits

hi you keep reverting my edits on wikipedia it clearly the iphone 8 not the se why you keep reverting it 99.229.137.84 (talk) 05:22, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@99.229.137.84: The real reason why I had to revert your edit is this: The 3rd Generation iPhone SE is a completely different phone. They are not the same. They are different when it comes to its technical specs, software, and other components. While the main chassis has similarities to the iPhone 8, it is, by technically standards, not the iPhone 8 since they're way too advanced. We also, currently do not have the full image of the new iPhone SE yet so please do not add it until we have received one. Please remember to please refrain from calling the 3rd Generation iPhone SE as the iPhone 8 because it is not the iPhone 8 and it is clearly a different model. 20chances (talk) 05:29, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

the other user was actully my school wifi which is abother ip i usednto call iphone se iphone 899.229.137.84 (talk) 13:22, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm trying to get what you're saying because there's so many typos in your message. But still, you and the other user need to stop calling the 3rd Gen iPhone SE the iPhone 8. It's not the same. I don't know who it is but still, it's something you both need to stop because it can lead to vandalism and these edits were not in good faith. They're going to block you because of it. 20chances (talk) 19:14, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your entry at User talk:Magical Golden Whip

Hi 20chances, I happened to find your edits and their reversions that you described at the above talk page. I'm writing to let you know that, after investigating the context, I have added my own remark as an uninvolved editor. — Greentryst ^T_C 13:25, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate letting them know on it. I really wish people can understand better that people can use reliable sources, especially when it comes to ones that are paywalled and/or in a foreign language. 20chances (talk) 01:51, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
