Armored Warfare correction

Hello there. I do not know how to add references, but I recently downloaded ARMORED WARFARE and I can assure you that the current developer and publisher is "Wishlist Games". My edit is accurate, but I do not know how Wikipedia works, so can you please help me? Here is the company that has AW (Armored Warfare): https://wishlistgames.net (you will see ARMORED WARFARE on the landing page of that link! 141.237.1.220 (talk) 12:03, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Civility Barnstar
	You stayed impressively collected while discussing such controversial topics with that IP editor. Thanks for your service! Staraction (talk | contribs) 17:04, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

@Staraction ah, thank you, you're very kind. A wiser person than me would probably just have disengaged at some point but here we are. AntiDionysius (talk) 17:13, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Thank you

for your valuable and surely exhausting work on the Imane K article and its talk page. BobFromBrockley (talk) 11:22, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

@Bobfrombrockley thank you, it means a lot. I kind of ended up involved by chance, and then felt the need to stay involved. AntiDionysius (talk) 15:15, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

Sarmatism (pseudohistory) - set up for speedy deletion

I have no time to set the entry Sarmatism (pseudohistory) up for speedy deletion. Anyhow, it has no English language sources, and what sources there are do not correspond to content. The author tried to create a concept out of nothing, it is telling the entry failed to pass on Lithuanian Wikipedia itself. It is clearly an unencyclopedic entry of no relevance, breaking WP. If you can and want to help me out in setting this up for speedy deletion, I would be thankful. 83.6.202.147 (talk) 16:03, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

English language sources are not a prerequisite for inclusion on English Wikipedia. The article would not qualify for speedy deletion; you would need to go through the Articles for Deletion process. AntiDionysius (talk) 16:04, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Like I said, it does not qualify for speedy deletion, and you would need to go through the Articles for Deletion process. That link explains how to do it; it's not difficult. However, until then, you should stop blanking out the page. AntiDionysius (talk) 16:50, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

I would be thankful if you helped me out in that. You can clearly see it qualifies for deletion. If you have good faith, could you please help me. 83.6.202.147 (talk) 17:19, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

I think it would be best if you did it yourself; I'm not the person who believes it should be deleted (I have zero opinion one way or the other) so I'm not really going to be able to make a case for why it should be, which a deletion nomination should do. Is there any part of the process in particular that you don't understand? AntiDionysius (talk) 17:21, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for this. I can't believe we're still having that conversation. Joyous! Noise! 23:16, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

No problem. It was still on my watchlist from last time. This really is getting ridiculous. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:44, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Politeness

You probably should not be telling people how to enter talk comments that are 100% polite, sticking strictly to what is or is not in an article and what should and should not be in it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:204:F181:9410:F550:EBE6:D51F:22EA (talk) 19:42, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

@2601:204:F181:9410:F550:EBE6:D51F:22EA Being civil to others is required on Wikipedia. AntiDionysius (talk) 19:46, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Your opinion about what is civil has little to do with the usual definition.

Any opinion that sticks to commenting on the article with no reference to individuals is civil.

If you disagree with what someone posts, you are free to post your disgreement.

But it's much better to wait until you find a flagrant violation instead of inserting yourself wherever you feel like butting in. 2601:204:F181:9410:F550:EBE6:D51F:22EA (talk) 21:20, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

That was a flagrant violation. AntiDionysius (talk) 21:21, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Actress Image

Hello Dear, I see you have reverted my changes to the Article Jennifer Kotwal, the actress herself has shared the image with me to be updated on Wikipedia. Let me know if I'm missing anything or a better way to change her image.

Thank you, Looking forward to your positive response.

Mastermind.ind.in (talk) 07:54, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi - so, this is a complicated one. There are two issues at play.

First, if you know the actress personally, then you need to read the Wikipedia conflict of interest guideline, which tells you how you should approach articles whose subjects you have some kind of personal connection to.

Second, regarding the image itself: images on Wikipedia need to be copyright-free and available for anyone to use, not just here on Wikipedia but also to copy elsewhere. We also need to have actual confirmation of that status. This article explains how the copyright holder for that photo (I don't know if that's the actress, her management, the photographer, whoever) can confirm that they are releasing the image from copyright so it can be used on Wikipedia.

Let me know if I can help with anything else. AntiDionysius (talk) 08:02, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Dobhi Railway Junction

You are writing wrong details of Dobhi Railway Junction. This is a big Junction not station. If you are not correct this content. I will claim in court against you. Because you editing wrong details on Dobhi Railway Junction. So go and correct the the name and details of Dobhi Railway Junction. 12 super fast express trains have stopped on this Junction daily. Thanking you. Dharmyuddh Party (talk) 11:55, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Two things. First of all, all edits on Wikipedia need to be sourced. You can't just say "I know this because I live there" - that's not how it works. See this guide to getting started on Wikipedia for an introduction to editing.

Second, you're not allowed to make legal threats on Wikipedia, and people who violate that rule are blocked. You need to say you're retracting the one you have just made and not make any more. There's also no point to it, because you don't know my name and we don't live in the same country and I haven't done anything illegal in either of the countries in which we live.

AIV

This was a bad report. I completely get what happened, and I actually wound up blocking the IP in error myself. But I figured I would let you know. ⇌ Jake Wartenberg ⇌ Jake Wartenberg 17:51, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

I appreciate you flagging it. But what was wrong with the report, if I may ask? The user continued adding unsourced content after a fourth warning. AntiDionysius (talk) 20:54, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Removing quote marks around direct quote from source material for Robby Starbuck article

Hi. 'Noticed you reverted in whole my edit of adding quote marks for directly quoted source material in Robby Starbuck article. Changing the word order makes words lifted from source material no less a direct quote. All the same, omitted those "out of order" quoted words from the direct quote. 85.156.111.20 (talk) 17:06, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
