Omaha Steaks request
Hi there, Blaze Wolf. Just checking to see if you've had a chance to review the Omaha Steaks draft again since I moved it to my user page. To reiterate, I removed the "hand-selected" phrase that you flagged and fixed some formatting errors. Really appreciate your help on this. I'm still learning about this platform and have been really encouraged by the response so far. Omaha Steaks Ashley (talk) 13:28, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Omaha Steaks Ashley: My apologies. I completely forgot to take another look at it. I've been a bit busy lately haven't had the time. But I will take a look when I have the opportunity to do so. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:32, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
Letter of alphabet short descriptions
Hi Blaze Wolf! I noticed you reverted Koqkpa's edit adding to a short description of a letter of the alphabet. I think that this was a positive contribution adding to the information in the description; I believe that short descriptions mean to be a descriptive summary, not non-specific and vague.
I'd be happy to discuss the merits of the edits further, if you'd like! Cheers, 🐶 EpicPupper (he/him | talk) 04:50, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- @EpicPupper: I've always been confused by short descriptions since most of the time whenever I see them, they're non-specific and vague. So like "2022 Video game" and not "2022 Splatoon game" or something. I think I tried asking about them once but never got a clear answer, and the page on short descriptions didn't really help clear it up either. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 12:54, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- They’re generally meant to be descriptive, not vague I’m going to revert the edit for now, if that’s okay. 🐶 EpicPupper (he/him | talk) 12:57, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
- @EpicPupper: That's fine. I remember I asked if it's preferable if short descriptions are short but vague or long but descriptive. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:00, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Teahouse Responses
You give the correct answers most of the time, for that we are grateful but please remember to be consciously polite when answering questions, taking your time to welcome new editors asking questions there, spelling things out for them and taking your time to teach them in a very polite manner is the core of the Teahouse and this traits is concomitant with any Teahouse host. if you intend to keep answering questions there Please be more mindful of your 'tone' you help out there, no doubt, but most of the answers you proffer albeit significantly correct comes off as rather passive or dismissive. Please take note and be conscious of this. Celestina007 (talk) 00:08, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Celestina007: Hello Celestina! Would you mind providing an example of this? I always do my best to be friendly towards newcomers, however I'm not going to waste their time by (for example) telling them how to create a draft if the reason they want to is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia and having them inevitably get their draft declined. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 12:54, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- I’m not oblivious of your heavy lifting or the good work you do, I wouldn’t point out to any specifics, because I’m not in the bad habit of collecting diffs of possible transgressions to use against anyone. In the end what I’m saying is you are doing okay at the Teahouse but there is always more room for improvement, being extremely polite is the bedrock of the Teahouse and the Teahouse is the most visited avenue. Keep up the good job. Celestina007 (talk) 18:18, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Why do you want to remain anonymous
For someone who doesn't want to be known is kinda shady, how do you expect the readers to know that the profile you made about yourself is truthful? VGM NDEBELE (talk) 14:42, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
- @VGM NDEBELE: IT's not shady. It's smart. It prevents me from being killed by some assassin who might really hate me for some reason. Also, they don't need to believe everything on my profile. For all you know it all could be a lie. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:46, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
Why would someone want to kill you? VGM NDEBELE (talk) 14:48, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
- @VGM NDEBELE: Who knows! I might have angered them at some point or offended them. Or maybe they just want to kill me because I exist. I don't know. All I know is that there may be a chance someone is out there wanting to kill me. Or there might not. I don't know. I'm not omniscient. Why are you even asking me this? ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:49, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

Error with your userbox
Hallo, I'm not sure if you want it removed or not, but there is a userbox on your page which is currently a dead link. (Specifically User:UBX/Waiting for UV.) I'd assume you do want it removed, but I thought it wiser to notify you so you can rectify it if you so choose. Réunion (talk!) 16:21, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Question from Hope8384 on Wikipedia:Signatures (18:33, 12 May 2022)
Hi, Was just wondering why I’ve been blocked from making edits when I’ve never attempted to make any. I use Wikipedia for research topics and recreational interests. Also, for a time I noticed I was in something called a “sandbox”. Can you clarify? --Hope8384 (talk) 18:33, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Hope8384: Hello Hope! I'm not sure what you mean. My guess is you were briefly logged out and your IP address was blocked from editing. As to why you were on a sandbox page I can't help you with that. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:36, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

Re: revert
I literally use the software? I was part of the initial beta test of stickers before it changed to the current system.

I was put on a global block list in January for “abuse” which I don’t understand because I’ve never made any contributions or edits to Wikipedia. In fact, I was hospitalized for most of the month so this makes me think my accounts were hacked. I know I’m still able to read articles, but I don’t take kindly to being accused of something I didn’t do, and for no reason. Please unblock my account. Thank you.

Thanks for reverting that. It was indeed a mistake which is itself a part of another big mistake. About crosswiki antivandalism, I could say that anyone, no matter how many languages they speak, can become a patroller. Becoming a crosswiki patroller means that you know what you're able to revert, and what needs further investigation or should be taken care by local users. That's it. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 19:23, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- @NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh: Am I still misunderstanding? Wouldn't it make sense for a vandal to be vandalizing in the language of the Wiki (since they most likely speak that language if they found it)? ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:33, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- The most common and simple type of vandalism are test editing, inserting nonsense/gibberish, blanking and promotion, all of which are not language-sensitive. Do you get it now? NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 19:36, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- @NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh: Sort of. I don't quite understand how those aren't language sensitive (besides blanking which is obvious, you're removing stuff) since those seem like it would be in the language on the wiki. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:38, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- For example, you can safely revert edits that bolds
a loooooong sentence or even the whole paragraph
as they are, by definition, test edits, remove things that are truly incomprehensible in all human languages likeienowv newovnw v
, and keep an eye on, say, a new user adding multiple links to their user page, next to a photo of themself smiling at the camera under which lies a line that statesJohn Doe, SEO expert
or something similar. NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh 19:47, 16 May 2022 (UTC)- @NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh: Alright. I know there are some languages that seem like complete gibberish to me but is something meaningful. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:49, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- Just don't scare of making mistakes. Be bold, and have fun. If a local user leave a message saying that you reverted an edit incorrectly, thank them with all your heart and learn how to stay away from that mistake next time. People can be interestingly stupid at some points, yet they can still be great persons in their own capacity. Remember that, it's your ability to learn that matters.

City of Niš
Hi, could you please stop reverting changes made to the City of Niš article? Numerous articles of Serbian cities have been changed and suggestions have been made that origins of their names come from Albanian/Proto-Albanian language and the references cites in those articles all come from Albanian institutions and authors. I come from the City of Niš, I know the history of it very well and Albanian people were never a majority here. I respect Albanian people and it's scientist, but I'm afraid that in this case, references made in the article are not true and objective and I don't think they should have precedence over scientific research made by Serbian scientific institutions, considering the article is about a city in Serbia.
I look forward to hearing your point of view. --BadBot22 (talk) 17:55, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
- @BadBot22: Please discuss this on the talk page of the article. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:57, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Discussions have been made, but I don't think there was any success in protecting the article from these changes. That is why I messaged you. Even the history of Niš article has been changed by Albanian user and again that was referenced with citations from Albanian research institutions. --BadBot22 (talk) 18:03, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
- @BadBot22: I will not discuss this any further on my talk page. Either you discuss it on the article's talk page, or you deal with how it is. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:07, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
I apologize if I'm bothering you, but by reverting changes to the article you are a part of the problem. Why didn't you revert the changes made by Albanian users when they were made? I will discuss about it on the talk page of the article and I hope you will be a part of the conversation. --BadBot22 (talk) 18:27, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
- @BadBot22: I see no Albanian users that made unconstructive changes to the article. If you wish to continue contributing to WIkipedia, please change your username since usernames that imply your account is a bot account are not allowed. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:31, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Sorry about that, I wasn't aware of that rule. As per the changes - how can changes made by Albanian users with sources from Albanian institutions cited have precedence over citations from Serbian research institutions about a Serbian city? It just doesn't make sense.

Edit on Sweden
Hi Blaze. I have on the Sweden Page removed an out-dated opinion-article because: "Editorial commentary, analysis and opinion pieces, whether written by the editors of the publication (editorials) or outside authors (invited op-eds and letters to the editor from notable figures) are reliable primary sources for statements attributed to that editor or author, but are rarely reliable for statements of fact." - WP:Reliability
Not research. I have replaced it with an update with links to 3 recent major studies on the subject. That is research.
Best regards, PN

Response to comment left on my talk page
Hello there, Blaze Wolf. On the page for Totalitarianism, I explained the removal of the content. The citations that Foorgood keeps restoring are all highly contested and controversial pieces of work, most of which share the personal opinion of a historian or political scientist, rather than just historically factual and neutral information 108.35.72.233 (talk) 19:56, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

Omaha Steaks request
Hi there, Blaze Wolf. Just popping in to see if you've had a chance to review the Omaha Steaks draft since I moved it to my user page. To reiterate, I implemented all of the changes you asked for at the Omaha Steaks Talk page, namely removing the "hand-selected" phrase that you flagged, and also fixed some formatting errors. I'm very grateful for your assistance on this, as I've struggled to find other editors interested in improving the article.

Dave Gettleman
Hello. Tell me how my removal on Dave Gettleman was unexplained when I clearly explained in a diff [1]? If you know something about American football and the NFL, you know that's a clearly a hoax and a false information. The "source" used (NFL Launches Investigation on Dave Gettleman helping the Eagles scandal) looks real at first, but it's totally fake and the URL leads to this. 142.119.27.227 (talk) 22:15, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
Use of rollback and warns
Hi, you appear to have used rollback on edits that have an edit summary explaining the removal of content. Moreover, your use of a Level 4 warning over the rephrasing of 3 words was entirely inappropriate. Note that these edits constitute disruptive or unconstructive edits at best, and do not fall under unexplained removal of content. Dark-World25 (talk) 07:56, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
- And do be aware that in some cases your edits could very well be construed as edit warring. The talk page is there, use it instead of reverting edits that you do not agree with. Dark-World25 (talk) 08:01, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
Slow down.
It seems you've recently really gotten into patrolling, especially with SWViewer. However, it's clearly generating a lot of heat though. Misuse of rollback reasons is very concerning. I've seen you roll back an edit as "unexplained", yet it clearly was (even if ultimately wrong), like at the AR-15 page. In the issue with the IP and the Lady Gaga song, you continuously reverted it as vandalism, despite it not been obvious vandalism, reasons being stated, and efforts to communicate with you. That made it a content dispute, even if it ultimately goes against the IP.
Please slow down. Please ensure the reason you're reverting something is properly stated. -- ferret (talk) 21:28, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Ferret: Hello Ferret! I understand what you have said and I will attempt to slow down. I feel the reason why I'm not taking as much time as I should evaluating each edit is because the feed on the left side is just going by quickly so my brain is thinking I need to quickly assess each edit to get to the next. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:10, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
- Let the feed roll. If someone gets to it before you make a decision, that's fine! Don't get caught up in the *rush* of patrolling, in the "game" of trying to beat others to the punch. It's better to miss out on a revert than to give the wrong reason and end up in a discussion about it. -- ferret (talk) 14:59, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Blaze Wolf: Mistakes happen. Don’t let this discourage you. You are a valuable editor. SWViewer is quite annoying sometimes. I had a bad experience with this tool. Furthermore, please refrain from altering other's comments as you did here; instead report them to the admins. I hope I’m not overstepping with this message and I believe this will help you somehow.

Wikibreak
So as I'm sure some people have noticed, I'm going to attempt to take a break from Wikipedia. My reasoning is I feel that I've become addicted to Wikipedia and it's been affecting my real life as it's become sort of a distraction. I've also been making a lot of stupid and easily avoidable mistakes lately that I feel might be due to my Wikipedia addiction which has caused me to feel a need to interact with every little thing on here. I'm not taking a break in an attempt to hide from my mistakes, but to help me make fewer of them. I know that we are all humans and that we will all make mistakes, however, sometimes you can make too many mistakes. During my break I will occasionally check my talk page or make a few minor edits (as in grammar or spelling fixes in articles), but I'm mostly going to try and stay off of Wikipedia until I feel that I'm ready to return. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:32, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
- Of course, take your time. Panini! • 🥪 14:21, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
- I like your user name. My spirit animal is a wolf, and I am addicted to pretty much all things wolf-related. Also, if I may add, (not to be rude or anything), but Wikipedia seems like a strange addiction to me. Not like, say, a video game or anything. But you do you. HulkSmash29 (talk) 20:27, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hey I am very sorry about this situation! Recently my passwords have been hacked and stolen by a few of my late friends. I have taken this to the police in order to sort this problem out, so please be patience with me and understanding!
- Also please don't block me from editing Wikipedia Articles, I need this for school and job purposes.

Apology
I wanted to use your Wikipedia profile page as a base for mine and I accidentally edited yours instead of creating mine. I reverted the edit but I still wanted to apologize for that mistake. Nice to meet you though! I wasn't expecting to find another furry here in Wikipedia. Pbshepherd (talk) 04:13, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) haha I was wondering what I saw. No worries about it. He's a chill dude. Not unsurprising at all to find a furry here—you'll probably find lots who edit on furry-related pages. :) SWinxy (talk) 05:06, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
- LMAO I was hoping nobody would notice. I'm still fairly new to Wikipedia, so what I do with most of my edits is copy someone else's format and then add my own information and sources. I was planning to do the same with my userpage and I had Blaze's source code in one tab as reference and mine in another, and I ended making all the edits in Blaze's page thinking it was for my userpage. I still feel extremely embarrased about that mistake though.
- I hope I get to meet other furs here along the way as I keep getting more and more involved in Wikipedia. Pbshepherd (talk) 05:48, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Pbshepherd: I'm still on break currently but was just viewing an article on something I was curious about and saw your message and as SWinxy said, it's all fine. Thanks for reverting it though. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:46, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

I am back... mostly
Hello all! I am back once again. However, a few things will change regarding my behavior from last year. First, I will not be nearly as active as I was last year. I will still be relatively active, however I won't be on pretty much every waking hour. Second, I will try not to be as stupid this year as I was last year.... and the year before that. Third.... uh... I dunno if there's a third yet (if there is I will edit this). Anyways, I am back! Hope to help out in any way I can this year. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:18, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

- My apologies. When I view the page in SWViewer I can't tell whether or not a person is alive. Usually if someone adds something to a page regarding a person without a source and I catch in in SWViewer, I just revert it as a BLP vio since that's usually what it is. Thanks for adding it back with a source.― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:07, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

About my refactoring
Hi. I refactored your reply to the edit request because there was a different outcome in the discussion. Therefore, your reply with the template "not done" that more reliable sources are needed, no longer applied. So in order to inform the requesting editor of the conclusion of the discussion, I refactored the comment by simply relocating the aforementioned template in my reply that "The consensus in the discussion in this thread was to remove the version number altogether". This way, saving them time from reading the whole discussion, in case they missed the diff in the article history. But, I understand. Thanks. --Thinker78 (talk) 03:13, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) This is atypical and not a reason to refactor someone's comments. Just add a new comment to the end of the discussion. -- ferret (talk) 15:11, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- Agreed. You are welcome to clarify a "not done" with further rationale, but in general the edits of others should not be edited. Primefac (talk) 19:30, 26 August 2022 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
Question from Vineetgupta30 (15:17, 27 August 2022)
can i create a page for my website --Vineetgupta30 (talk) 15:17, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Vineetgupta30: Hello Vineet, sorry for the late response. The answer is probably not. If it falls under Wikipedia's notability criteria then you can see if an editor would be willing to create it for you. However Wikipedia is not the place to promote your website. There are many other places you can do that. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:07, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Creating an article
Hey Blaze Wolf, it is a pleasure speaking to you. I've been sent here by User:Chris troutman in order to get a Wikipedia editor to create an article for a biography of a living person, to be more specific a tattoo artist. I am not quite experienced with how Wikipedia works but as said I've been guided a little bit by Chris Troutman. I was wondering if you're accepting this kind of service. I'm looking forward hearing from you. PinkWriter99 (talk) 20:28, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

- (talk page stalker) lol. How did they end up here? SWinxy (talk) 00:35, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- You'd be surprised at the random places that people manage to turn up to. I've seen draft articles placed on the talk page of redirects to WP-space pages that aren't even related to article-writing. Primefac (talk) 09:52, 31 August 2022 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
- They most likely ended up here because they were somehow sent to the SuggestBot suggestions talk page and I told them to try the Teahouse... and now they're here. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 12:59, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
- @PinkWriter99: But I'm unable to help you with writing a BLP article as I am highly inexperienced in that area (The only article I've created is for a video game). If you haven't already, please ask at WP:TEA as you may be able to find an editor there who's willing to help you. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:00, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Excuse me, I did add a source.
I did add a source to the page, George William Mote. Abraham LincoIn (talk) 20:05, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) It wasn't that there wasn't a source, but the source is not considered a reliable one.

Just was wondering how I can publish information about an individual I’m trying to create a page for so it can pop up when people google them? --Gabemh (talk) 20:02, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
- Gabemh, you should read through WP:YFA and then use the Article wizard to create a draft, which will be reviewed by experienced editors after submission. Primefac (talk) 11:11, 13 September 2022 (UTC) (talk page stalker)

- @Aditya pawar 67: Hello Aditya! That's alright, in the future use your sandbox to test out editing in the future. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:53, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know what is sandbox so please explain me Aditya pawar 67 (talk) 16:03, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
- First, please do not create a new section for a reply (you can either use the button that says "reply" if available, or add a comment beneath mine with one extra colon to start). Second, your sandbox is located at User:Aditya pawar 67/sandbox. See H:SAND for more info. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:05, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

- Hi Aditya! You should check out Help:Getting started. It lists a lot of helpful knowledge on editing, and you can also check out the teahouse for specific questions that you can't find answers to. SWinxy (talk) 17:57, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

The article creation used "hatchback sedan" and "four door saloon". Does that mean it's British English or American English? Or, must we now mix variants? The article was converted to British English here complete with a {{Use British English}}
. I had a bit of discussion with the editor here. I think his argument a bit flawed. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 00:37, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

- @Adakiko: Hello! I'm honestly not quite sure. Technically it should use Japanese English but that's not a thing so I'd say discuss on the article's talk page. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 01:45, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Will do. I did a quick google of American v. British English preferences in Japan and found that, to the disappointment of many British English teachers, the former is preferred. I knew a guy who said he translated Japanese technical manuals. I exclaimed did he speak Japanese? His answer was that he translated Japanese English to American English. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 02:39, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Should I make it a RfC, ping recent significant editors of the article or both? Thanks Adakiko (talk) 03:17, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Adakiko: I don't think it's that big of a deal to warrant an RFC. But do ping recent significant editors to the article. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 12:56, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- Done. BTW: Why do chicken coups have two doors? If they had four doors, they'd be "chicken sedans". Well, maybe "Chicken saloons"? Cheers Adakiko (talk) 13:22, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

SharpRank
Just slightly confused about why the page I created was requested for deletion. How can this be edited? I am a new editor. SportsMediaAnalyst (talk) 15:27, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- @SportsMediaAnalyst: I initially requested it to be deleted because it seemed promotional. Bbb23 decided it would be better to move it to draft space where it is now located at Draft:SharpRank. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:32, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
Hey Thanks.
Thanks for helping out with the cleanup on my user page. I chose not to use the clear tag previously as it creates a weird artifact. A fix has been found, so the clear tag has been added. Have a barnstar for the help.

- @GreenSixSided: No problem! I jsut saw that you added a bunch of break tags between 2 templates and I figured "Why not just used the clear tag?". DIdn't realized it created a weird artifact. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:35, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yep, the weird artifact is a |} in the userbox, when the userboxbottom tag is inline with everything else. GreenSixSided (talk) 18:38, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
September 2022
Regarding this edit to Anti-fascism, I did in fact describe my changes with an edit summary. Could you review my edit summary, and remove the message on my Talk page? Thank you PhotogenicScientist (talk) 13:38, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- @PhotogenicScientist: Hello! The edit summary I saw didn't explain it. I saw your other edit summary but I'm not reverting either edit as you need to discuss this on the article talk page. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:58, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- The second edit (the one you reverted) was not technically "content removal"; it was a reversion of a recent edit made by another user, with an explanation of why I made the revert. The first edit was a content removal, which I explained in the edit summary.
- I feel that if someone has concerns about a content removal, they should explain their concerns, which Beyond My Ken has not done, either in their edit summary or on the Talk page. PhotogenicScientist (talk) 14:37, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- @PhotogenicScientist: Well still you should discuss on the talk page (and ping Beyond My Ken). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:38, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- Alright, I'll do that.
- I'm still pretty new to Wikipedia, so I don't know the best way to handle all situations here. I see the value in discussions on Talk pages. Though, it kind of sucks if you put time into research and thought into an edit, and that edit gets reverted without explanation, the onus is on you to start the discussion... But I guess I see the value in that, too. I imagine longtime-users have lots of edits to review, and can breeze through processing certain types of edits (like content removals). And that status quo is desirable over new content, generally.
- Sorry if I seem irritable or rash in my judgement; just trying to learn the ropes around here. PhotogenicScientist (talk) 14:53, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- @PhotogenicScientist: It's alright. And you are correct when you say "I imagine longtime-users have lots of edits to review, and can breeze through processing certain types of edits (like content removals)." People who fight vandalism like me usually are seeing a lot of edits at once and usually edits that are removing content that is sourced is usually deemed to be vandalism, though sometimes it isn't (and hopefully the user who removed the content lets us know that we made a mistake) ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:58, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

yes you made a mistake...why deleted the external link i posted?please stop that. 37.100.101.28 (talk) 16:38, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hello IP! When you initially added it it looked like you were jsut adding a random link to a comment from 2008. The next time you added it you said it was an image so I left it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:39, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
You should make an edit to the Minecraft wiki article
There is a version of minecraft for the Oculus Quest named Questcraft I think you should add something about that to the Minecraft wiki article Willowwoods45 (talk) 13:04, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Willowwoods45: Only if it's supported by reliable secondary sources. And also that sounds like it's a 3rd party mod. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 23:38, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
- It's on SideQuest Willowwoods45 (talk) 00:27, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- @Willowwoods45: That still doesn't make it so it can be in the article. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:30, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
- Alright I just thought it might be a good addition Willowwoods45 (talk) 00:33, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

Mario characters List criteria
I've started a discussion on the Characters in the Mario franchise talk page suggesting some ideas for a possible list criterion for the article and thought you might be interested. I'm also trying to find out the best way to showcase a potential rewrite of the article, be it in my sandbox, a subpage, or some better alternative avenue. Thank you!
