Disambiguation link notification for April 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Pillar Point Harbor, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Breakwater (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Seedball Edits
Hi there! I see that you have reverted 16 of my edits to the Seedball page without explanation. I was curious if you had some reasoning? Let me know, thanks. Uprisingengineer (talk) 18:55, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
Unexplained Reversions
Hi, CodeTalker, I see that you have been going through my edit history and undoing or reverting some of my edits, often without explanation. Would you like to say why? For example, I see that you undid this. Do you have a problem with opossums being listed as marsupials and with rabbits and hares being grouped with other rodents? Currently the page is somewhat taxonomically incorrect. 021120x (talk) 21:14, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
- Hi @021120x:, I'm sorry that you felt my edits had inadequate explanation. In the case of the edit which you cited, my summary was "rabbits are not rodents" which while brief, was I thought sufficiently clear. In case you disagree with this, check our rodent article, which says "Rabbits, hares, and pikas, whose incisors also grow continually, were once included with them [rodents], but are now considered to be in a separate order, the Lagomorpha." and our rabbit article, which says "Although once considered rodents, lagomorphs like rabbits have been discovered to have diverged separately and earlier than their rodent cousins, and have a number of traits rodents lack, like two extra incisors." So I think the page is more taxonomically correct as it stands. I do not recall reverting any other edits by you; are there others that you have questions about? CodeTalker (talk) 21:48, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
- @CodeTalker: Thanks. I also noticed you reverted this on the basis of it being "uncited". Here is a University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee survey that shows that "Tennis Shoes" is not by any means unique to the Western US; it is used throughout the country (41.34% of the population). The statement can simply be that it is used in the West as well as most other parts of the United States outside of the Northeast. 021120x (talk) 23:51, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
- @021120x: I agree that your citation shows that "tennis shoes" is not unique to the Western US. In fact it seems more widely used in the Eastern US than in the Western US, where its use is mostly confined to the coast. The existing statement is cited to a different survey, which unfortunately doesn't seem to have nice geographic maps of its data, but some spot checking seems to show its results are similar to the UWM survey. (Nevada is much higher in the Harvard survey but that's probably because the UWM survey has very few respondents from Nevada.) In any case, rather than adding the names of more areas where the term is used, I think the entry should just be removed from the list, since it isn't a very good example of Western American English. Thanks! CodeTalker (talk) 01:44, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you, CodeTalker. Are you going to update the page, or should I do this? 021120x (talk) 10:01, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

An apology for revision on Pumpkinhead II: Blood Eings
I apologise for adding Category:Supernatural fantasy films to the second Pumpkinhead film, since that other categories such as Category:Dark fantasy films and Category:American supernatural horror films have been added as categories for the film. I also added Category: American dark fantasy films for the film, since it’s already included in Category:American supernatural horror films, Category:American films and Category:American monster movies.
Clarification
Hello, first of all if you view the history of the page you will see that I did not enter them, but another user. Yesterday, having seen that a user has deleted the episodes, I proceeded to restore them, not knowing that the user had copied them from Fandom, but I know the copyright rules and I do not start to violate them so at random. I didn't copy them, I didn't know the user had copied them, I proceeded to insert them. The user should have specified that he copied. I restored the episodes thinking that they had been raised for vandalism, in this case the fault lies with the user, who entered the episodes knowing to copy, and the fault is not mine, I only restored information entered by the user. The fault is not mine, you should know what to enter on Wikipedia, first of which must specify when copying, and in case the user did not specify it, going against wikipedia rules. A user who sees that episodes have been deleted and does not see that the user who entered those episodes copied how does he understand that it is a violation, if there is not even an alert?.

-- To show that I don't break copyright rules, I calmly set out to look for who created the original Series 5, that you say I copied, well, if you view the history of the page, you'll see that who at To show that I don't violate copyright rules, I calmly set out to look for who created the original 5 series, that you say I copied, well, if you view the history of the page, you will see that those who violated the rules were 2600:6C4A:580:2BB8:F48F:6503:3994:4D1C, who created the original series 5, with the same writings as Fandom, and who created the original series 5, with the same writings as Fandom, and then 2600:6C4A:580:2BB8:61C2:A802:5742:DBD3 he expanded the rest, also with the same things as Fandom, I consequently not knowing that they had copied from Fandom I was shocked when I read your message because I will have read the copyright rules 100 times and I do not accept anyone tell me that I copied when I propio yesterday I reread the rules. I don't know Fandom, and only now I saw that the writings are identical, I proceeded to restore the original season 5 because I thought it had been eliminated for vandalism, and since the users did not leave warnings, how would I know?. On Wikipedia I think it is a must to know what to insert or not to insert, no?. I await answers.

Hi @MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma:, thanks for the clarification. There is no problem as long as the material has been removed. I just wanted to explain why I deleted the content that you restored, so you wouldn't think I deleted it without a good reason. CodeTalker (talk) 14:43, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
Ok, thank you very much!, next time, to be foresight, I will see if the information taken by users is also on FANDOM.

Done
Hi CodeTalker, thank you very much for your report at Special:Diff/1018345911/1018351269. The main issue with this case was persistent disruptive behavior, which is probably best reported at WP:ANI. In cases of block evasion (current block, current evasion), WP:SPI is usually the place to go. If you already know about both reporting venues, feel free to ignore this message; I just thought it might be helpful for future similar cases. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:51, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

You said to talk to you
We had this Curious George page for years why keep reverting if it happened multiple times.
- @2600:8801:208a:f00:60e7:5af2:6049:520e: The material you are wanting to add to the List of Curious George episodes article does not conform with the documentation of the Episode list template. If you click on that link and scroll down, you will see that it says that the AltDate field should be the "next notable air date"; that is, a single date, not a list of dates. It also says quite explicitly "Do not use {{Start date}} if |OriginalAirDate= is present", and has a footnote explaining why. My edits simply change the article to conform with the template documentation. If you have a reason why you believe your version is in conformance with the documentation, I invite you to continue the discussion I started on the article talk page here. Thanks.

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Brownian motion: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Seahawks4LifeTALK—CONTRIBS 17:48, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Code Talker. Your desire to interfere in German politics, on behalf of Annalena Baerbock, is rather funny. In Germany, there is the saying "Cobbler, please stick to your performance".

Hey Why did you remove my edit? It was useful to readers and it was factual. Also, you mentioned commercial website, but there are other citations to commercial websites on the same page. Specifically, right above where i did the edit, so why do they get to keep their edit, but the one i provided does not get to stay? Also, the sage bathroom edit wording doesnt utilize the best grammar. So please let me know what is the reason for my edit being removed. Here is the citation and edit by Sage Bathrooms... "Modern digital equipment when used in conjunction with automatic chemical feeders results in stable pH and chlorine levels.[13] Local jurisdiction may demand a wait time if chemicals are added by hand to the water so that swimmers are not injured." And here is their website cited https://sagebathrooms.com/how-to-raise-chlorine-levels-in-a-pool/ And here is their about us description...Sage Bathrooms is the bathroom safety division of Sage Solutions for Independent Living, a federally incorporated (2002) company that markets products and services that improves residential safety and independence. Seems to me that there are commercial citations on the listing that get to stay for some reason? Please advise. Thanks
- Hi AspenDecker, and welcome to Wikipedia! It is important that all additions to Wikipedia adhere to our policies and guidelines. In this case, the relevant guidelines are WP:ELNO item #5, which states that for external links, "web pages that primarily exist to sell products or services" should not be linked, and WP:VENDOR, which states that for citations "e-commerce links should be replaced with reliable non-commercial sources if available". The page you linked to specifically describes one commercial product and offers to sell it to the reader; in other words its primary purpose is to sell a product. This doesn't really apply to the Sage Bathrooms link you mention, because that page, although part of the website of a commercial business, does not describe or even mention any of the company's products nor does it suggest that the reader should buy anything from them. (Note the footnote in WP:ELNO#5, which says that the linked page should be evaluated in isolation, not with reference to other pages in the site.) If you can find non-commercial references which discuss the "smart chemistry" topic, you are welcome to add them. If you disagree that the luv2swim page exists primarily to sell a product, you should open a discussion on the Swimming pool sanitation talk page so that other editors can comment. Thanks! (Also, please note that when you add a comment to any talk page, you should sign your comment by adding four tildes at the end; see WP:TILDE). CodeTalker (talk) 15:55, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome! And also, thank you for explaining the citation requirements. I will see if that company has any online citations about their product that are not funneling to any sales process. I can also list other examples of pool automation companies that don't have any sales funnels to ensure multiple sources are cited. I will try to do an edit again in a few days. I will let you know when done, so you can review the edit. Hopefully, I get it right this time. I definitely want to figure this out because there are a lot of terrible articles on wiki with lots of jumbled information. :) Talk soon...
Ok, just revised the edit. I found a press release without sales funnel and also found another news article about smart tech. Check whenever you have time to confirm its good to go or if I need to make any changes. Thank you!
Rollback granted
Hi CodeTalker, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
For some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 06:31, 6 June 2021 (UTC) ~ ToBeFree (talk) 06:31, 6 June 2021 (UTC)

Why are you removing the revisions to the page on Todd Kashdan? The allegations are still being reviewed in court. I attached the URL for the ongoing federal court case. This is supposed to be an encyclopedia, not a place for allegations and accusations to appear. Until they are shown as factual, the information should be treated as allegations. The court will decide on whether the charges hold up or are slander and defamation.
- @Gmupsychologist1: Wikipedia summarizes what is reported in reliable sources, so that the information can be verified by readers. The information that is currently in the article is supported by references to two reliable sources. The text you replaced it with makes several strong claims but has absolutely no references, so it cannot stand. If you want to include something like this, you must find reports in reliable sources that make these claims, and provide references to those sources. I don't know what you mean when you say that you "attached the URL for the ongoing federal court case"; you did not provide any such thing, but in any case such a document would not be a primary source and not an appropriate source for the text that you added. CodeTalker (talk) 17:47, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
Restoring
Hi there, you reverted deletion of content that was added by/on behalf of a politician who has been harassing a female colleague and trying to kill a bill she wrote with family law professors to clarify child abuse and intimate partner abuse laws. The content addition included false information, article listed as cite failed to verify, and it's only source is the politician himself. This is why it was deleted - it violates standards.
Hi Code talker,
I saw that you reverted an edit made to correct content that was confirmed to be added as BLP issue and vandalism to a female politician's website by her political opponent who has a history of white male supremacist disinformation. The only source for the content added by the anonymous IP was this male politician himself, it is unverified by witnesses to the event, and mischaracterized the news article cited as the source. It was edited to reflect to what was confirmed by multiple sources, including the male politician himself, and be inclusive of the female politician's account of the event, which was omitted. You reverted it to vandalism.
Given the long history of reports of women's histories being omitted, marginalized, deleted and biased with sexist editing on Wikipedia, as well it's use for disinformation and creating controversy in politics, I hope that you will be more careful in the future.
The vandalism by a political opponent that I'm referring to was made: 10 June 2021 and generated Tag: possible BLP issue or vandalism)
Whitecatwearinghat Wikipedia's purpose is to summarize what reliable sources have reported. The information you are trying to suppress has been reported in a reliable source (The Advocate) and our article accurately summarizes what they have reported, namely that Seabaugh made an accusation and that White apologized for her action. If you want to claim that neither of these events actually happened (and that therefore The Advocate completely fabricated their story), you must find another reliable source that makes this claim. You cannot just remove information from a reliable source because you don't like it. CodeTalker (talk) 15:50, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
CodeTalker You're response completely ignores the violations of Wikipedia's bias, research and multiple sourcing standards, for LPB and public official pages, as well as evidence of libel / defamatory content added by a politician to his own page with simultaneous vandalism on his political opponent's page that I pointed out. Wikipedia's policy is that the content should be removed for the reasons I gave, which is exactly what I did. This is a political controversy, and there is a criminal investigation, which makes it even worse and prone to be libel.
Accusing me of removing something just because I didn't like it is insulting. I followed the Wikipedia policy very precisely. That you've been ganging up with another editor apparently to falsely cite infractions that I've not done -- toward blocking me from Wikipedia editing -- for pointing out male supremacist editing is more like gamergate, alt-right, poltical troll behavior than what's appropriate for Wikipedia editor. It's the same thing women and other under-represented groups have been reporting as problems with Wikipedia for a long time. Whitecatwearinghat (talk) 16:17, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- This is going nowhere. If you feel you have a valid reason to remove this information, open a discussion on the article's talk page so that other editors can participate in the discussion. Please do not post on my talk page any further. CodeTalker (talk) 16:52, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
Collaboration on Wikipedia is long dead.
All of the edits I made (except the first) had an edit summary - all of the reverts said no summary was provided - clearly that's incorrect. Also I don't see anyone looking for consensus, just blind reversions based on so-called NPOV. As I said a number of times, leave the Fox and Trump bashing to their respective pages. This subject is a living person and some statements in the article are being couched as fact when in reality they're nothing more than third-party opinions linked to dubious sources. Vox and Daily Beast are *not* neutral, nor reliable sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.56.190.28 (talk) 18:48, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
- That is merely your opinion. The reliability of sources on Wikipedia is determined by consensus. As I stated in my edit summary, both Vox and Daily Beast have been decided to be reliable sources and are listed as such on WP:RSP. One editor repeatedly stating the opposite carries no weight. If you continue your edit war against consensus, which is now far past WP:3RR, you are certainly going to be blocked from editing. CodeTalker (talk) 18:56, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

- Hi @71.143.227.151:, welcome to Wikipedia. Since you are in direct contact with the subject of the Annie Weatherwax article, you have what Wikipedia calls a CONFLICT OF INTEREST. Users of Wikipedia should not edit any article about people with whom they have an external relationship. You should therefore not edit the Annie Weatherwax article directly. Instead, you should first register an account, then disclose your conflict of interest on your user page. Please read WP:COI for more information about this and about how to disclose your conflict of interest. Then rather than editing the article directly, you should suggest the changes that you want to make by making an EDIT REQUEST on the article's talk page. See WP:EDITREQ for information about edit requests and how to make them. I hope this helps. CodeTalker (talk) 19:57, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

You stupidly use jacobin magazine to cite john Stuart mills beliefs
The assertions he was leaning toward socialism is completely incorrect, furthermore, you need to not cite socialist magazines if you want to make that point, and rathe quote him directly. i will continue to reedit it until you decide to change to acceptable sources
Judy Justice Edit Reversion
Sox Entertainment will not be producing Judy Justice. It is a production only of Amazon Studios and IMDBtv. The articles sourced were incorrect.
- As I stated on your talk page, you merely need to provide a reliable source that supports this assertion. If you learned about this by reading it somewhere, provide a reference to where you read it. CodeTalker (talk) 21:33, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
- Hey CodeTalker, our lovely friend has reemerged, only under a new IP address User talk:98.149.150.173. User:Cassiopeia reverted him, as shown here [1] for the same reason you and I did. The user came back and undid her revisions, here [2], then mine here [3]. Just letting you know if you want to keep your eye on that user. JudgeJudyCourthouse25 (talk) 21:03, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @JudgeJudyCourthouse25:, thanks for the heads up. The IP has made another edit, this time actually adding a source. However I'm a bit confused, because while the reference doesn't support the change they made, it also doesn't support the text that was previously in the article. Originally the article had company=Sox and distributor=Amazon. The IP changed the company to Amazon and left distributor as Amazon. However, as I read it, the reference says the distributor is Sox, contrary to both the original text and the IP's change. What is your take on this? CodeTalker (talk) 15:20, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
Re: Coleoidea
If you would have checked talk:coleoidea, you would find why I explained the edit before I made the edit.
¿Do you really want to leave the insanity in the article? Yeah sure, a crazy article made it to a crackpot-journal, but so did the Sokal affair. Reference to the fever-dreams of cranks rightly hurts the credibility of WikiPedia.
Unless someone can justify on talk:coleoidea by September why we should humor the mentally ill, I shall delete it again. I hope that a fortnight is sufficient time to support this lunacy.

Jean de Bethencourt
About my additions in the article about Jean de Bethencourt:
1. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/De_Teguise-1
3. https://geneacanaria.blogspot.com/2012/10/de-la-inexistente-primera-mujer-de.html?m=1
4. https://archivoteguise.es/hombre-ilustre/8/la-princesa-teguise
You can translate the references number 3 and 4, they’re in Spanish and are part of the work of recognized historians and genealogists. Unfortunately there isn’t enough references in English but you can contact them. They can provide you with the documents to establish the correct lineage of the surname Bethencourt. The article in Wikipedia isn’t good enough about the Bethencourt’s lineage. I think you have to prove the real relationship between Jean and Andre de Bettencourt, because there aren’t references or documents about hhis connection but Wikipedia have published it as truth, without sources to confirm it, while you have deleted my additions saying there is a lack of sources. User:85.49.198.11
- Hi, @85.49.198.11: thanks for providing references for your changes. These references should be added to the article when you make the changes, rather than being sent to me personally, so that anyone who reads the article can see and verify the sources. See WP:V for our policy, and WP:REFBEGIN and WP:CITE for how to add the references to the article. It's fine to use non-English sources if English sources cannot be found; see WP:NONENG. What's not ok is adding specific claims without providing any sources. Thanks again, and happy editing! CodeTalker (talk) 17:29, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi, your edit on Craniosacral Therapy appears to me to be highly biased and opinionated in its language. In which case this is not scientific, to simply cite references which are against something. There are studies for and against almost anything you care to argue about. However this is not simply about an act of mental masturbation on being factually correct - I have literally had life changing sessions of CranioSacral Therapy. So much so that I left my job as a senior Electronic Engineer to study and practice it - and now I have had many, many, many people say that I myself have made a huge difference to their lives through this modality - dealing with real world problems like childhood sexual abuse, chronic anxiety, depression etc. A CranioSacral practitioner trains their senses to sense 3 tidal waves of varying frequency. The fact that they are a field phenomena that we don't have instruments to measure yet does not negate their existence. Nor does the fact that one must train themselves and their senses rigorously to detect such fields. We cannot measure Love and yet few would deny its existence. I encourage you to think about the effect of your actions beyond some sense of being right - there could be someone at the end of their rope who really needs help & support, a type of support the allopathic domain isn't designed to give, and seeing your article may turn them away from reaching out for that help from someone who can connect to their system in a way that can be vastly beneficial, whether or not it is yet scientifically verifiable. And the only real contraindications are for someone with a recent stroke or intracranial bleed - in that regard to cite it as 'dangerous' is just plain misleading. Please be responsible with your actions and consider the real world consequences of such actions All the best Mjeddy (talk) 16:40, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Mjeddy:. The purpose of Wikipedia is to summarize what reliable sources say about a topic; see WP:RS and WP:V. For medical topics, our standards are even higher; see WP:MEDRS. This is specifically because there may be, as you say, serious real world consequences to someone choosing a treatment for a medical condition. These are fundamental principles by which we operate. Everything in Wikipedia must be a summary of what is said in a reliable source; nothing can be based on personal experiences or ideas of individual editors. The idea that "there are studies for and against almost anything" is contrary to our basic principles. In light of this, if you think that there are reasons based in Wikipedia policies to make changes to the article, your next step would be to open a discussion on the article's talk page. But be sure you have adequate reliable sources to support your position. If the gist of your argument is that we should ignore reliable sources and base what we say on one editor's personal experience, I'm afraid you are going to get very little support. There are plenty of places on the Internet where you can argue the merits of craniosacral therapy without sources, but Wikipedia is not one of them. Welcome, and I hope you are able to continue to edit here productively. CodeTalker (talk) 19:01, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi, apologies for my uncustomary hostility. There are so many inaccuracies and misleading statements with this article that it drove me a little off the deep end there. Thank you for being so courteous in response to my beginner outburst:) I will endeavor to go about this in a more systematic manner and list where I believe there is misleading information in the talk page. Thanks again Mjeddy (talk) 22:45, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

Green Man festival. Founded by my sister Jo Bartlett and her my childhood friend Danny Hagan in 2003. Some strange person keeps editing this out.
Hi @Proftomasito:. A number of people have removed the content you are repeatedly adding, because it is not cited to a reliable source. Please read WP:RS for our policy -- you cannot add material based on your personal knowledge. It must be cited to a reliable source. Please find a source before you add this information again. If you persist in adding unsourced information you may be blocked from editing. CodeTalker (talk) 19:22, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- @Proftomasito: the first site is a blog and therefore would not be considered a reliable source. Anyone can write anything on a blog. The BBC source is better but does not mention the names "Bartlett or "Hagan", so does not seem to support your claim. CodeTalker (talk) 19:36, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Chase Stokes
The change to the infobox "Partner(s): Madelyn Cline (since 2020)" was solely based on content already in the article under the Personal life header, which reads "He [Chase Stokes] is currently in a relationship with his Outer Banks co-star Madelyn Cline, which he made public via an Instagram post uploaded on June 14, 2020.". The sources are an Instagram post made directly by Chase Stokes, and a recent follow-up article by E!. Since the information is true and already sourced in the page, instead of removing the bit in the infobox repeating the same information, it would be more productive to just attach a ref on the bit in the infobox. This isn't a case of hearsay or unreliable information, just an unsourced infobox mention of something already sourced in the body of the article. 69.180.211.147 (talk) 19:00, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

12/19/2021 ===
I posted and took half of my day literally with correct proper citation and sources as wikipedia mentioned.
you erased everything I wrote including from books, I give you three days to correct this because it was in proper citation everything I wrote with direct and very extremely authoritative sources from books including catholic websites where for example I mentioned that transubstantiations is a catholic term.
if this issue does not get resolved I will post in youtube and other websites internationally so that catholic along with eastern orthodox communities worldwide we will defund your website and will list it as misinformation list and then it will be banned in different governments. I do have that sort of ability.
you choose.....
I provided everything sources it took a half day. you want me to play the hard way we will do it and when your website gets completely defunded and shut down and then another organization will buy it. and then you will be frustrated. you choose correct it or else i will go public and post it not only in youtube because we know youtube also takes down websites but other international websites as well.
you have three days to correct it i am not giving more chances i worked very very hard and even followed the proper form of citation but because you did not liked the content and you hate the catholic church you decided to remove everything including the proper citation i will find a way to get it to the highest member in wikipedia at whatever expense. if you do not the issue i will post those videos with proof and i ma not bluffing i have screenshots i suspected this would happen
you told me to place the citation of the source correctly I complied and did not complain at first because i knew i was wrong and then i did followed every single instruction as wikipedia required it and then you still decided to reverse the changes to misconstrue and also to make the catholic church look wrong and even you willfully provided misinformation.
if you'd like we can make it ban this website in England, Poland, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, Mexico and many other nations i will speak all the languages necessary to defund wikipedia with the truth and proof you choose...
I took screen shots in case I get banned and will provide it in youtube among other websites as well.
i will escalate this matter to info-en@wikimedia.org if you do not fix it in three days

- Hi @Scorpions13256: The thing to do is provide a reliable source for the information you want to change. You mentioned in the edit comment that this was announced on twitter. If the twitter account definitely belongs to the subject, then you can cite it to reference information about the subject, per WP:TWITTER. (Note that the twitter account would need to belong to the person who changed their name, not a parent or other relative.) It would be better however to cite a secondary source, if and when the information appears in another source. CodeTalker (talk) 02:17, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- You are correct. I will not revert your edit. I just feel uneasy about keeping the deadname in the article. Unfortunately, no reliable sourcing seems to exist. I think I'll just remove the name from the article. Scorpions13256 (talk) 02:26, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Scorpions13256: Removing the names of both children would probably be the correct thing to do. Per WP:BLPNAME, we should respect the privacy of family members who are not notable themselves.

I don't think naming the children conforms to WP:BLPNAME nor that citing the parent's tweet conforms to WP:TWITTER which says that the tweet must not involve claims about a third party, but I'm not going to revert it any further.

Incinvible
I am fully aware that wikipedia does not have a no spoiler rule. That is obvious. Through a description of a character, you describe their backstory and personality. Not everything that happens to them in the series, including their demise. In the synopsis of an episode, you don't explain the entire ending, you give a one or two sentence quickly explaining the plot of the episode. The explanation of the killings of the original Guardians of the Globe is justified, as that is a motivated plot point for the entirety of season 1. It is not for a very minor character, or anything that does not push the plot. It is an unnecessary addition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.76.39.59 (talk) 06:53, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
@CodeTalker: There are millions of notable compounds having naturally occurring elements besides Carbon and Hydrogen, hence the viewpoint mentioned in this article is a little inaccurate. Examples of organic compounds containing diverse elements are Penicillin, Phenothiazine, Sulphonamide, Thiazide, Glutathione, Cyanocobalamin, etc. The list is practically infinite. It would be appreciated if the scope of the article is broadened CrafterNova (talk) 08:45, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @CrafterNova:. Yes, of course an organic molecule can contain other atoms besides carbon and hydrogen, and the vast majority of them do contain other atoms. But your wording made it sound like all organic compounds contain nitrogen and oxygen, thus excluding methane, ethane, etc. Also the "naturally occurring" phrase is problematic, since there are organic compounds containing technetium which doesn't really occur naturally. Perhaps it could say "Chemical compound with carbon-hydrogen bonds and possibly other atoms" but that seems a bit awkward and unnecessary, since the fact that other atoms are permitted seems implicit in the current wording. CodeTalker (talk) 16:39, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
@CodeTalker: There must be a way to make the wording consistent with current definition of organic compounds. Also, a common feature is that organic compounds usually contain covalent bonding and/or coordinate bonding. From Technetium, "Technetium occurs naturally in the Earth's crust in minute concentrations of about 0.003 parts per trillion."CrafterNova (talk) 01:56, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

Be Like Mike Lesa Werme
Hello, I feel it is necessary to correct the record.
First Lesa Werme was the creative art director on the Be Like Mike campaign which enabled her to be granted several promotions which were duly noted. Understanding that the general public may not have knowledge of that important role in the Be Like Mike campaign. Werme was creative art director for all the content and conceptual aspects of the Be Like Mike campaigns Specifically, unlike the other people noted in the information highlighting the children of the creators and Quaker Oats Co. that were paid handsomely to appear in the commercial. Lesa Werme as the creative art director was sitting next to, engaging and directing Michael Jordan during most of the scenes depicted in the infamous commercial but was not highlighted visually other than in private press releases since it would be unethical to appear in a commercial for profit despite having been the person who was the creative art director who was also sitting next to Bernie Pitzel in the restaurant when he heard Lesa Werme declare after Pitzel was struggling with the Disney song lyric “ I want to be like you”. It was Werme who not only created the graphic that appears at the end of the infamous commercial “Be Like Mike. Drink Gatorade”. But it was Werme who suggested to Pitzel in that restaurant Pitzel regularly met with Werme on other projects they worked on, the idea is to “BE LIKE MIKE” not to “BE LIKE YOU” as the Disney lyric generically said.
Real content such as this is rarely exposed when only half of the facts are expressed.
It matters little to Werme if WIKI wants the whole story. But if WIKI does seek the truth then there is no truth like the one that comes straight from the horse’s mouth as they say.
If you are inclined to see photos of proof. That can be provided
Sincerely, Happymonkeyface Happymonkeyface (talk) 14:37, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Happymonkeyface:! Wikipedia's purpose is to summarize what reliable sources have previously published. Please take a look at WP:V and WP:RS. You've made a lot of claims in the paragraph above. My question is, how do you know all this? If you have read it in a published source somewhere, then all you need to do is provide a reference to that source (see WP:REFBEGIN for information on how to do that). If, on the other hand, you merely know this from personal experience or private communication with people who know it from personal experience, and there are no published sources that report it, then I'm afraid that it cannot be added. Unpublished photos would also not be acceptable. Your statement about the "horse's mouth" seems plausible in everyday life, but it is antithetical to the principles by which Wikipedia operates. In most cases we do not use primary sources such as photos and first-hand reports from participants and witnesses, but prefer secondary sources, in which primary sources have been evaluated and reported on. You may also want to read WP:VNT. I hope that you are able to find reliable secondary sources for the change you want to make, but if you cannot find them, then this information cannot be added, even if it is true. Thanks for communicating! CodeTalker (talk) 17:25, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello, Thank you for your reply. The reason I can make these claims, and because it appears that I am communicating with a real person, is that Happymonkeyface is Lesa Werme. The claims made are made by the person who wrote them and was the person who created the Be Like Mike campaign. As it appears, despite the sources, Bernie Pitzel is the individual behind the Be Like Mike campaign. And while I have great respect for Bernie, it simply is not true that the creative genius lies in one person. The facts are that when campaigns are created there are TWO sometime THREE parties. A writer, an art director and (which was not the case with Be Like Mike) a creative director.
I appreciate your commitment to integrity and I am grateful for the factual deep diving you apply to your efforts.
I simply felt that there is an imbalance in this particular WIKI on Be Like Mike including perhaps most disingenuously that Bernie Pitzel was the creative genius behind the advertising that featured perhaps the Greatest Of All Time, Michael Jordan who not only held my first child but gifted him a signed basketball when I attended a BARRONS baseball game pregnant in Birmingham just before my son was born. Once again, I am grateful for your dedication to facts and I appreciate your willingness to engage in the process of true authentic research despite what sources you find on the internet which also may only project a story half true. Happymonkeyface (talk) 18:40, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Happymonkeyface: Thanks for the information. Once again, the fact that you know this information to be true is unfortunately insufficient to justify its addition to Wikipedia. You must find a reliable source that has published the information. Furthermore, since you are the person involved, by Wikipedia's definition you have conflict of interest with this article. Wikipedia users are strongly discouraged from writing about themselves or their associates (see WP:COI for more information). If and when you do find a reliable source supporting your change, you should NOT edit the article yourself, but should submit an edit request on the article talk page, and allow an uninvolved editor to evaluate the source and make the change. Thanks! CodeTalker (talk) 19:55, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello Code Talker, Thank you for your reply. Your information is helpful. Of course I would not have understood the details you provided had we not had to go through a lengthy conversation.

Hello there!
I added details, information, and edits to this article on Long Beach timeline, but you reverted my edit. I did rephrasing on sentences and I added details with reliable sources. There is nothing wrong with my edit. Can you explain this revert? Thank you. --76.20.110.116 (talk) 23:47, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
- There were several issues with your edit. The wording was overly promotional, using terms like "with style" in Wikipedia's voice. It had a first-person reference "our town" which is entirely inappropriate. But the biggest issue is the text was ungrammatical English and was pretty much incomprehensible. CodeTalker (talk) 21:44, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

- Hi, the guideline for adding a person to a list of "notable people" is that there must already be a separate Wikipedia article about that person. There is no article about the person you added, so he should not be added to a list of people (until such an article exists). See WP:LISTPEOPLE for more about this. Thanks!

Revert of my edit on Rabin cryptosystem
You reverted my 16 August 2022 edit on Rabin cryptosystem. The text is back to it's original "computationally secure against a chosen-plaintext attack as long as the attacker cannot efficiently factor integers" rather than "… known random plaintext …". Your revert comment states "This directly contradicts the source, so at least needs another source".
I challenge that statement. Among the sources in the Wikipedia article I find none stating that the Rabin cryptosystem (as described in the Wikipedia article or in the original source MIT-LCS-TR-212) is secure against a "chosen-plaintext" attack. Notice that MIT-LCS-TR-212 contains the word "chosen" only in the sentence "for appropriately chosen keys".
Although that may not be enough to justify the edit, I stand by my initial edit comment "The Rabin cryptosystem as described in the current Wikipedia article and in MIT-LCS-TR-212 is not CPA-secure". The Handbook of Applied Cryptography (one of the sources linked in the Wikipedia article) concurs in its 8.13 note ii: "the Rabin public-key encryption scheme succumbs to a chosen-ciphertext attack". Also the article's own security section says essentially that with "The Rabin cryptosystem does not provide indistinguishability against chosen plaintext attacks".
I formerly suggested that you just revert your reversal. In my opinion the matter is trivial enough that it's not indispensable to directly link to a reference, but I let you decide Fgrieu (talk) 10:54, 23 August 2022 (UTC). But a further edit made it unnecessary.
Please see this question for why I made my edit.
- Hi, thanks for writing. I was referring to the source in the footnote that originally followed the statement, which references Cryptography Theory and Practice by Douglas Stinson. On p.145 it says "
In this section, we describe the Rabin Cryptosystem, which is computationally secure against a chosen-plaintext attack...
" and on the next page "It is interesting that the Rabin Cryptosystem is provably secure against a chosen plaintext attack. However the system is completely insecure against a chosen ciphertext attack.
" I just checked Schneier's Applied Cryptography but it doesn't mention CPA, although it agrees about CCA on p.476: "Both Rabin and Williams ... are completely insecure against a chosen-ciphertext attack.
" I'm confused about the relevance of your citing HAC's statement about CCA; were you confusing CPA with CCA? Anyway, if we were to add a statement contradicting the Stinson book, we would need another source that clearly states that. I will review yesterday's changes to the article later. CodeTalker (talk) 15:31, 23 August 2022 (UTC)- Adding ping @Fgrieu:. CodeTalker (talk) 17:57, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- The scheme in Stinson's book (3rd ed.; couldn't find a 1st ed. to consult) is as follows:
- Let , where and are primes and .
- Let , and define
- For , define
- and
- The value is the public key, while and are the private key.
- This is deterministic, and thus inherently insecure as a public-key encryption scheme: if an adversary has a 'ciphertext' and wants to determine with high probability whether it conceals a candidate 'plaintext' , they can just test . This can be computed using only public information, and they'll get a true positive probability of 25% (due to the 4:1 nature of 'Rabin encryption'), which for real security should be more like . For example, if you give me the 'ciphertext' , I don't have to factor your modulus to know there's a good chance the 'plaintext' was . The same is true of the textbook RSA 'encryption' with or .
- If you want IND-CPA security for public-key encryption, it must be randomized. The scheme as specified in Stinson's book -- and in the Wikipedia article -- is not.
- On the other hand, you can take a deterministic trapdoor one-way function family, like the RSA trapdoor or the Rabin trapdoor as described here, and add randomization, e.g. with OAEP, to make an IND-CPA encryption scheme out of it. If you do that with RSA, giving RSAES-OAEP, you even get IND-CCA2 (relative to the RSA problem). But if you do it naively with Rabin, you only get IND-CPA, not IND-CCA2 (relative to factorization).
- Pretty much the only reason the 'Rabin cryptosystem' exists is for textbook examples of proving IND-CPA security (if the adversary can compute roots of random squares mod , they can factor ) but spectacularly failing IND-CCA2 security (if you let the adversary submit random squares mod and you return square roots to them, they can factor ). However, discussing that gap only makes sense if the scheme is randomized in the first place; otherwise it fails IND-CPA security for a much more mundane reason like any other attempt at deterministic public-key encryption.
- This gap for randomized variants of the 'Rabin cryptosystem' is what Stinson is trying to get at when he says 'secure against a chosen plaintext attack' but 'insecure against a chosen ciphertext attack'. But it's just wrong for the specific scheme that both he and the current Wikipedia article describe. Taylor Riastradh Campbell (talk) 22:11, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
@CodeTalker: I did miss the reference you cite. It's wrong if we read CPA-secure as IND-CPA, as noted above by Taylor Riastradh Campbell. In the 2019 (fourth) edition with Maura B. Paterson, the second citation even slightly worsened to "We have shown that the Rabin Cryptosystem is provably secure against a chosen plaintext attack". Problem is, the alleged demonstration is of something different: that ability to solve any arbitrary instance of the Rabin problem implies ability to factor.
And indeed I had the CPA/CCA brain slip that you point with my counter reference, my bad.
I do maintain that the Rabin Cryptosystem (as in the article and MIT-LCS-TR-212) is not CPA-secure in a modern sense of that (which is, IND-CPA), and that my original edit removed something misleading. I'm happy with the current state of the article (including giving the Stinson reference, in two other different contexts): it's security section now states the scheme is not IND-CPA.

Hello!
I’d like to strike a compromise between you and the Public user. I regularly watch the Sinology page and I’ve decided to make the first Sinology edit on this account to help you guys out. I do need help with citations for the text (I didn’t write it myself, and there were no sources), so if you could help me that would be much appreciated.
Thanks! ZNewPlayer2 (talk) 03:22, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @ZNewPlayer2, thanks for your message. My only issues with Publichackedaccount's changes were the unexplained removal of "Assyriology" in their first edit, and their referring to the fields Assyriology and Egyptology as "studies" in the second. Your change looks ok, although you removed a reference which seems useful and relevant. I would restore that reference after the paragraph that you changed, although the paragraph still makes some claims that aren't in that particular reference. The information about Arcadio Huang's work in France can probably be sourced to one or more of the references in our Arcadio Huang article. CodeTalker (talk) 18:40, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

- First, please treat other editors with civility and refrain from personal attacks; see WP:CIVIL and WP:PA. Second, no individual editor may dictate where another editor may edit; see WP:OWN. Third, if one of your edits is reverted, you should open a discussion on the article talk page to resolve the dispute rather than re-reverting; see WP:BRD.
-
- As for the content of your edit, the grammatical error was in the use of "albeit". This word is a conjunction that can be used to introduce a clause, an adjective or an adverb. It cannot introduce a noun as you have done. More important is the sourcing issue. You say "it wasn't meant to be in the source". It is a fundamental policy of Wikipedia that all content must be traceable to a reliable source; see WP:V and WP:RS. You cannot add content based solely on your knowledge or beliefs. The existing source does not support your claim that the changes were "mostly in the constitution", so you must support this claim with another reliable source.

- There are a couple of misspellings. "Routsin" should probably say "ruotsin". "Pohjoismaden" should say "Pohjoismaiden". "Helevetti" would be "helvetti" in standard Finnish but this is a dialectal word, not a misspelling. JIP | Talk 00:13, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

- @TheAutumns, I'm not sure which sentence in Lionel Messi you are referring to. The lead sentence looks fine to me. The commas in that sentence are delimiting the non-essential phrase "also known as Leo Messi" and are therefore correct. In Glenn Weiss there is no such non-essential phrase in the lead sentence, so the comma is incorrect. I hope this helps. CodeTalker (talk) 21:34, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Actually, my edit to the Leonard Whiting page repaired an occurrence of the very problem you mention. Allegations are being made in a legal proceeding that have not yet been established to be fact, so it is proper to refer to them in a neutral context instead of presenting them as facts. My edit corrects an inadequately cited claim, rather than introducing one.

Hello, CodeTalker,
I'd like to encourage you to try out Twinkle for use when you tag pages for any type of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/CFD/etc.). It's a very helpful editing tool used by many administrators and most page patrollers because it makes editing easier and remembers all of the template codes so you don't have to. I bring it up here because once you set your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator", every time you tag a page for deletion, Twinkle will post a notice on the talk page of the page creator, informing them of the article tagging, an important step in the deletion process especially with Proposed Deletions.
Twinkle also helps tag articles for problems, post talk page Welcomes and Warnings, report vandals to noticeboards, set up AFD nominations for you, maintain deletion logs for the user, it really is the Swiss Army Knife of editing tools. Try it out! Thank you for all of your contributions to the project. Liz Read! Talk! 19:01, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks @Liz:, I do already use Twinkle for some things, but I wasn't aware that it does PRODs too. I will use it for future deletion tags. CodeTalker (talk) 19:04, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
John Murray Murray
You removed a photograph that I had uploaded to the entry for John Murray Murray.
However, the Wiki on South African copyright laws states "50 years from publication or if unpublished 50 years from creation (cinematography films, photographs, computer programs)".
It was an unpublished photograph that I uploaded. He retired in 1973 which is 50 years ago. So it didn't violate copyright laws.
Please confirm that I can re-upload the photo.
Thanks. Slim8029 (talk) 19:24, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hi,
You uploaded the photo to commons with the source listed as "own work". That normally means you took the photo yourself. Is that the case? If so, the age of the photo doesn't matter, as the copyright holder you can license the photo under a CC license as you have done, and there is no copyright issue. However if you did not take the photo yourself, in most cases the photographer owns the copyright, so the current license is not valid. In that case you should edit the data in commons and provide the correct source. CodeTalker (talk) 22:16, 18 January 2023 (UTC)- The photo is mine. I've tried to provide a category for it in Commons but don't think I did that correctly. When I return to the Murray article I can find absolutely no way to connect the photo in Commons to the article. And if I look at the photo in Commons, there seems to be no way to link it to the article.
- All very mysterious and obscure. Please advise.

List of constructed languages reverted edits (links)
CodeTaker, your reason for reverting my edits "These are already linked earlier" makes sense in the case of continuous text articles, but does not make sense in the case of lists. A list is not something to be "read" in the way like regular articles are read.
All lists of languages in Wikipedia have repetitive links to the same articles and nobody reverts them. See e.g. List of languages by number of native speakers, which has in fact two lists and and an introductory section, and each item (each language) is linked as many times as it appears in the whole article.
Especially links from a text that does not sound the same way as the article I have linked to seem to me worthy of beeing kept for the sake of a reader searching for a specific information.
Please kindly reconsider and undo your revert. noychoH (talk) 23:02, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- @NoychoH I reviewed MOS:REPEATLINK and I agree that it indicates that repeated links are ok in lists, so I have reverted my revert. Thanks for pointing that out. CodeTalker (talk) 23:24, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Hey there CodeTalker thanks for the message on my talk page, no it wasn't a mistake, on the 5th of September 2022, an editor added a not insubstantial amount of text to the intro paragraph without talk page approval, consensus or even suggesting the edit.

Happy to take your suggestions.Jollyoldrogers (talk) 16:29, 15 March 2023 (UTC)Jollyoldrogers
- Hi @Jollyoldrogers. There is no requirement for anyone to get approval or consensus before adding content to an article. However when an addition is challenged, it should be discussed on the talk page to reach consensus. Since you are the one who is challenging existing content which has been in the article for 6 months, you should open a discussion on the talk page and explain why you think the information should be removed, despite it being referenced to an apparently reliable source. Thanks! CodeTalker (talk) 21:06, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- CodeTalker Thanks for clearing that up. However, if you look at the article history closely, the content actually was challenged, someone then restored the version that had never secured talk page approval, by reverting the challengor's edit on the 2nd of January (2 months ago), stating 'unexplained changes against sources'. Double standards?, one editor that adds information cannot be challenged even though they have no consensus (zero edit summary legend/explanation/justification), but a challenge is not valid because they have not gained consensus.Not sure how that works?Jollyoldrogers (talk) 09:04, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Jollyoldrogers

I don't even know if this is the right way to talk to you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ChatterjeeSubhasis (talk • contribs) 19:40, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
- @ChatterjeeSubhasis, you can read about Wikipedia's guidelines for external links here: WP:EL. Note the WP:NOBLOGS item (#11 in "Links normally to be avoided"); in almost all cases, self-published material should not be linked. The page you linked to does not even identify an author; I guess you wrote it yourself? Regardless of who wrote it, it seems to be one person's opinions, and therefore I do not believe that it should be linked. CodeTalker (talk) 01:11, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
- Dear CT,
- I made the PDF and it is watermarked in my name. I believed it will help others find the right books on the Yoga Sutras. And yes, like all other works in religious studies, it reflects my views. But I thought it would help. The message is important and not the messenger, at least not always. This is why I watermarked it S. Chattopadhyay. Go through it once again and please decide on its merits. Not who penned it. Peace that comes from Yoga. And thanks for taking the trouble for doing what your are doing. ChatterjeeSubhasis (talk) 16:24, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @ChatterjeeSubhasis. Actually, on Wikipedia the messenger is important, because Wikipedia relys on reliable sources to evaluate material for us. I am not qualified to evaluate the validity of the Yoga Sutra material you have linked, but even if I were qualified, it would not be appropriate for me to decide on whether the material should be included based on my personal evaluation. The material must be evaluated by a published, reliable source, not by individual Wikipedia editors. This can be difficult for new users to understand; it was certainly not clear to me when I started editing here. I recommend reading WP:V, WP:RS and WP:EL, and if you still believe the material is appropriate, open a discussion on the article's talk page so that other editors can be involved in the discussion. Thanks. CodeTalker (talk) 17:01, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
Sexuality and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
from Bunchofbaloney: I did provide a reason for removal of content. It was not factual information but rather "here-say." If Wikipedia chooses to use untruthful information and say hat it's "what the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints believe in and practice" then they're wrong and will answer to a higher power for saying so. I'm done with it. 2600:8800:8B85:FB00:7D85:388:C506:DE80 (talk) 00:45, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia summarizes what reliable sources say, not what one individual editor asserts without sources. The information you removed was exceptionally well-sourced, with 9 sources backing it up. You replaced it with a personal statement of a type that doesn't belong in an encyclopedia, and provided no sources. So I am very comfortable saying your change should have been reverted. Also, please sign in to your account when making edits on Wikipedia. Editing while logged out can be viewed as an attempt to mislead. CodeTalker (talk) 00:58, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
About Summit School (Queens) article
Hi CodeTalker, how are you?
I wanted to apologize for any confusion. When I'm on my phone (i.e., at work or elsewhere), my User:ATC account has errors and doesn't allow me to log in so I created the User:EJA94 account for cellphone usage. I'm only able to sign into my main account, User:ATC, when I'm on my laptop at home.
The reason why I wrote "state funding approved private day school" is because most people confuse private with independent private schools, as most are independently-funded. However, some states (i.e., New York, New Jersey, and New England states) also have what's known as (state) approved private schools where each student's local school district approves to cover the tuition for he or she to attend those kinds of special education schools, so I worded it that way for people reading it had a more general and clearer understanding of what "approved" meant, but it's fine and doesn't need to be worded that way.
I also didn't have access to the history section on my cell phone to read what you said that quotes had to stay in lines with the direct quote (without removing any of the original wording). But, the phrasing "state approved, private" with a comma before private school is not accurate as its even listed by the NYS Department of Education as an "approved private school" (as in the source provided).
Thanks, and take care!
ATC . Talk 18:02, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @ATC, I have no problem with the "state funding approved private day school" part of your change. I was only concerned with the change to the quoted text that begins "age, IQ, ...". I see that you mostly fixed this in your latest changes. Just now I added an archive URL for the ref and made one more small change to the quote to bring it in line with the source ("sex" was missing after "age"). Thanks! CodeTalker (talk) 22:02, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- Sounds good! By the way, language is very broad in meaning and not everyone is familiar with the term "language facility" which refers to the language of their writing, so for clarity I feel it might be best to add in the bracket "[written] language facility". Thanks. :) ATC . Talk 00:25, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oh, and the new webpage school design in the Admissions page left out "sex" since each class is comprised of both girl and boys. See here: https://summitqueens.com/admissions/ However, they left out important information on the assistant teachers, job coaches and classroom size (so it might be a good idea to keep the old archive source for that part).

Hi Code Talker, I’m new to Wikipedia. I don’t know how else to contact you but I saw that you asked me to stop using Copyrighted material but I had no clue it was because I wrote where I got it from. Could you change her picture to a nicer one cause the one she now is really not nice lol. Or could you tell me how to do so? Rhomfan (talk) 02:28, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Rhomfan, thanks for communicating. It appears that you took an image that you found on someone else's website and uploaded it to Commons. This is a copyright violation and is not acceptable -- any photo uploaded to Commons must be licensed with an appropriate license. Usually this means it must be a photograph that you personally took with your own camera. You can try to find an appropriately licensed image published by someone else, but it's unlikely that you'll find one. Wikipedia is very strict about this because copyright violations are violations of the law, and both Wikipedia and you could get into trouble by violating copyright. It's possible to upload a photo to Wikipedia directly rather than to Commons, but only in very specific situations that almost always excludes a photo of a living person. You can read more about this at WP:IUP and WP:COPYRIGHT. BTW, I see that your image has already been deleted from Commons. Thanks, I hope this helps. CodeTalker (talk) 02:39, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
- "If there are "multiple sources" then provide them. In the sources cited in the talk page discussion, Lorenzo Di Bonaventura rejects the term "reboot". Here are reasons why Bumblebee is reboot do not change page.
- In cancelled Michael Bay's universe Unicron is earth in reboot universe Unicron is giant planet. It wouldnt make sense if Unicron ate himself from another dimension. Also timeline contradicts Bay and reboot films. In
- Bay films Bumblebee is already on earth since WW2, while in BB he is young scout that just arrived on earth in 1980s. Also cybertron and robot designs in BB are G1 accurate while in Bay they are their own. Yes producer Lorenzo Dibonaventura rejects term reboot but that's just him, Paramount actually almost went bankrupt when
- they released TF The Last Knight and ultimatelly cancelled that. Bumblebee was developed as spin-off prequel to Michael Bay's Transformers 2007, but was later changed to be reboot after The Last Knight flopped. Also if BB and ROTB are prequel to TF 2007 why would they mention GI Joe in end credits. Here is source where Hasbro confirms BB is reboot Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Will Reboot the Franchise (collider.com) 24.51.19.134 (talk) 13:07, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

"loaded, biased, uncivil, tabloid language"

Edit to "Johnny Guitar" article
Hi CodeTalker! I noticed you reverted my edit I made with AutoWikiBrowser on the "Johnny Guitar" article, with the edit summary: "Rvt removal of sourced content" (diff: [4]). My edit was just formatting changes and did not remove any article content (diff: [5]). I think your edit may have been meant to target a different edit. Thanks! Wikipedialuva (talk) 23:47, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Wikipedialuva, thanks for the message. You are correct, I accidentally reverted the wrong edit. I was targeting the edit before yours. I believe I've corrected it now. Apologies for my error. CodeTalker (talk) 23:54, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
English
You complain I corrected the American mis-spellings. However, what you refer to as "British English" is definitive English. I was born in England, taught English by an English teacher in England. This IS English.
The url is en.wikipedia.org and I suggest articles written in American (English?) should have a us.enwikipedia.org url. 2A02:C28:AD67:11:8BCD:F6C4:C0EF:CB42 (talk) 13:31, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia, not a British one, and its policy is to allow articles to be written in any variety of English (British, American, Australian, Canadian, Indian, etc); see WP:ENGVAR. Where the subject of an article has a strong tie to a particular English variety, that variety should be used (thus an article about a British person should be written in British English; an article about an American person should be written in American English, and so on); see MOS:TIES. An article without such ties should remain written in whatever variety its original author wrote it; see MOS:RETAIN. If you believe these policies should be changed, you should make a proposal at WP:VPP, although this issue has been discussed previously, and to be honest, I think it is exceedingly unlikely that you will convince the community to make such a change.

Undid
There is no evidence that Betty boop or Disney influenced LARGE EYES. Please do not attach false information. JosshnPs (talk) 09:03, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
- @JosshnPs Content in Wikipedia is based on what reliable sources have published. The statement in Osamu Tezuka has a citation to the Patten book as a source. You have provided no source for your claim that the information is incorrect. If you want to change it, you must find a reliable source that supports your claim. But since there is already a source that claims otherwise, the article would need to be written in a way that takes both sources into account. After you have found a source, I would suggest you open a discussion on the article talk page so that other editors can evaluate the sources. Simply claiming that the source is wrong without any support from other sources is not sufficient. CodeTalker (talk) 16:17, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
Tungsten edit
So my edit to "Tungsten" mentioning the whole tungsten-cubes thing was reverted for unreliable source... I hadn't thought of it as needing particularly hard references, given that I was stating the existence of a product that's readily available from multiple merchants. I picked a source that described the why and when. What more do I need exactly? Dalek955 (talk) 01:09, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, IMO the source was borderline, mainly because it appears to be a commercial site that's selling tungsten, so its inclusion could be viewed as promotional. It would be better to find a non-commercial source. Thanks. CodeTalker (talk) 04:00, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Garden of Eden
To be clear, it is an objective fact that, for instance, Origen of Alexandria is anathematized by the Eastern Orthodox church as per the canons of the Second Council of Constantinople https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Council_of_Constantinople#Aftermath . Also, it is an objective fact that the liturgical calendar which the Eastern Orthodox church utilizes assumes a temporal fall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_calendar . This is not my opinion on such, otherwise I would not make an edit. 71.179.205.73 (talk) 04:26, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
- I don't really have much expertise or interest in debating this matter. All I saw was that you removed a paragraph which has five sources, and the sources, at least at a cursory reading, seem to support the content. If you feel that the sources are being misinterpreted, I suggest opening a discussion on the article's talk page, so that other editors can participate. CodeTalker (talk) 17:07, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

- Thanks for doing the research! Unfortunately those are not great sources. I don't think any of them would be considered reliable by Wikipedia's standards. fandom.com is user-generated content and is expressly declared unreliable at WP:FANDOM. post-trash.com seems to be a blog written by one person, Dan Goldin, and blogs are usually not reliable. Guitar.com seems better but I can't find their editorial policy. Nevertheless I've done some searching myself and you seem to be correct that there are very few sources for the Fawke name. I won't oppose changing the name to Turner, but let's leave out the statement that he is "often incorrectly attributed with different last names" because I don't see any evidence of that. Thanks for your effort to improve Wikipedia! CodeTalker (talk) 16:49, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol
Hello CodeTalker!
- The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
- We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
- If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Dylan Sada
I don't know who you are but I was a close friend of Dylan's while she was alive, my name is Melissa Thomas. I made several edits to your Wikipedia page here as I felt that your original interpretation of Dylan's life was invasive, distracted, embarrassing and offcourse and that it excluded the way she viewed the world and her fellow creatives. As far as my sources, the information I added can be found on Dylan's Facebook page Momomilk, her Instagram page and her Facebook page under Dylan Sada. I don't know how to code source but I do know how to deeply respect someone I love.
If you are going to write about anyone in such a public way, make sure you research them thoroughly so as to share an accurate, whole picture of who they are or were. 2001:5B0:4ED4:D478:D9B0:656A:D276:ABD4 (talk) 21:06, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, welcome to Wikipedia! It's important to understand that all information in Wikipedia must come from a published reliable source. Information that you have learned from your personal contact with Dylan cannot be added, even if you know that it is correct. This is because Wikipedia requires that all content is verifiable; that is, anyone reading it can check the source to confirm the information. Personal knowledge cannot be verified, so is not acceptable. See WP:V for more details on our verifiability policy.Information that comes from Dylan herself is considered "self published". It can be used in limited ways, to verify simple unexceptional claims, but it is preferable to use third-party sources rather than content published by the subject herself. See WP:ABOUTSELF for more information about this policy.Finally, as a friend of Dylan, you have what Wikipedia considers a conflict of interest on this topic. Therefore, you should not make any edits to the article yourself. See WP:COI for more information about this, and in particular note the statement "
If you have a personal connection to a topic or person, you are advised to refrain from editing those articles directly and to provide full disclosure of the connection if you comment about the article on talk pages or in other discussions.
" Instead, you should make an edit request on the articles talk page here, and let another editor make the change. You can find instructions on how to make an edit request here: WP:EDITREQ. When you make edit requests, be sure to include a link to a published source that supports the change you are proposing.Thanks, I hope this information was helpful. CodeTalker (talk) 22:34, 3 December 2023 (UTC)- I believe it would be well argued that as a personal friend, that user's testimony is a secondary resource all it's own. 104.232.89.88 (talk) 09:07, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

The changes that you made were to the talk page of Valle Roveto, an article unrelated to Pompei. Talk pages are for discussion of article improvements; see WP:TALK. In this case, the talk page you edited should be for discussion of the Valle Roveto article, not for drafting a new unrelated article. I hope this helps! CodeTalker (talk) 21:11, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Excuse me!!
Huh, hello. Why did you reverting my edits for? SolshineBenie (talk) 20:34, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @SolshineBenie, I reverted 5 of your edits and provided an edit summary for each one explaining why I reverted it. In more detail:Special:Diff/1222243267 In this edit you removed the sourced statement that the largest IMAX screen is in Leonberg and replaced it with an unsourced statement that the largest IMAX screen is in London. Do you have a source that shows that the Leonberg screen no longer exists? Do you have a source that the largest screen is in London? If so, you need to provide those sources.Special:Diff/1222243476 In this edit you changed "fictitious business name" to "alternative business name" in many places. "Fictitious business name" is a specific legal term with a specific meaning, as shown in the article references, and cannot be arbitrarily replaced with another term.Special:Diff/1222243685 In this edit you changed "slightly different" to "largely different". They don't mean the same thing, and "slightly different" is the appropriate meaning here. I've noticed that you have replaced "slightly" with "largely" in several articles, and in all the edits that I have seen you make, "largely" is not a better word in context.Special:Diff/1222243934 In this edit you seem to be claiming that 1:20am on March 26 is actually the evening of March 25. This is obviously incorrect.Special:Diff/1222244189 This addition is ungrammatical and it is unclear what you are trying to say here.Also, I see that you say that you are from Northern Ireland, so I would expect you to be fluent in English, but many of your edits have significant grammatical errors (such as in your message to me just above: "
Why did you reverting my edits for?
" ) Please be more careful to write correct English when you edit Wikipedia. Thanks! CodeTalker (talk) 20:51, 4 May 2024 (UTC)- For further clarity:
- Regarding to the BBC HD article, 1:20am is defiantly the evening of Monday 25th March 2013. BFI London may be the largest cinema screen in the world. The word "largely" could also make sense because of what can describe that companies' design or logos or other stuffs etc.
- You know what, i will make a draft article about something you may want to know about. SolshineBenie (talk) 21:02, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
