Thanks!

Thank you for your helpful intervention re the historic differences in edits on the Cody's Books page. The editor had, as you suggested, misread the differences. The edits I made are restored now and I have suggested that the part found contentious be edited by that editor themselves if they have good sources to cite. So, we have made our peace and I am grateful for the resolution. Balance person (talk) 08:23, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Abracadabra

Hello! My name is Michael Erdman. You reverted one of my edits to a citation on the page for Abracadabra. I changed a citation on the page for a blog post from my name to the name of the actual author of the piece, Zsófi Buda. Please visit the actual blog post to see that I merely uploaded the blog to our Asian and African Blog, but that the author is clearly credited as Zsófi Buda. I would be grateful if you'd revert to my edit as this is the correct citation for the source. Thank you! 185.85.187.107 (talk) 06:04, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi Michael, I have restored your change. I notice that there is a slight discrepancy in the author's name. The blog post lists their first name as "Zsofi" but you have rendered it as "Zsófi". Which is correct? CodeTalker (talk) 17:16, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

McHale's Navy

Why did you revert my plot summaries? I spent a lot of time on these. This is for history. People want more information. Entercontainment (talk) 16:47, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

@Entercontainment, please read the documentation for {{Episode list}}. It says the ShortSummary should be "A short 100–200 word plot summary of the episode". Most of your summaries were well over 200 words. More information is not always better. The summary should be a SHORT description of the overall plot, not a scene-by-scene recounting of the whole episode. Please revert your change again or rewrite the summaries to be in conformance with the Episode list documentation. CodeTalker (talk) 17:01, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Reinsertion of poorly sourced material

I don't know why you thought this was a good idea but it wasn't. I am re-removing the material and starting an RSN thread. I will give you a courtesy ping from there. Elinruby (talk) 03:40, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Kamloops Indian Residential School

Please don't re-insert inappropriately sourced information again into Kamloops Indian Residential School like you did at Special:Diff/1229496789. Regards, TarnishedPath^talk 22:34, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Ararat "edit war"

What is should I do in your opinion? I made an edit, it was undone because it was unsourced, then I re-intoduced it with three different sources and now it was reverted by someone claiming I use nationalist words and my sources are unreliable. I simply dont want to cause problems. Karkafs Desiderium (talk) 02:54, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

I saw your words in the articles history, sorry for the annoyence Karkafs Desiderium (talk) 02:56, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

Big Fish

Hello! Thanks for being attentive to problematic edits on the Big Fish page. Another editor just reverted about 20 of my edits from the past week, and I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind giving me your thoughts on whether this was appropriate. You can view my conversation with them here.

I'm very confused, because I made the edits in what I thought was an incremental fashion and provided edit summaries for all of them. Wafflewombat (talk) 03:12, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Battleboarding

I understand the reverted edits, as there is no source to give for news aggregates regarding VS Battles Wiki's internal traffic reports- I have access to these, and wanted to correct them, but if it must be reported by some other news site then this is fine. However, the page as it stands is inflammatory, in that it alleges VS Battles Wiki is inaccurate- I believe the use of the word "alleged" to be important, because the nature of the hobby the article deals in is subjective, open to interpretation. Based on the phrasing of the article, and the championing of a relatively obscure wiki as the poster child for a hobby with many more relevant communities, I believe this is an intentional misrepresentation of VS Battles Wiki (painting all other communities as "accurate" by comparison).

Is it alright, then, to re-insert "allegedly"? It aligns with the sources already provided in the page, and admittedly there are very few blogs or articles speaking on the subject. — Preceding unsigned comment added by XeroFury (talk • contribs) 20:34, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

@XeroFury I'll be mostly unavailable for the next few days, but I just wanted to answer this. I have no objection to re-adding the word "allegedly" as you have done. CodeTalker (talk) 03:36, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for your clear summary of the situation at WP:ANI#User:Radlrb_in_WP:WPM (where I cannot comment because it is semi-protected; but your clear statement covers everything I would like to have said). 100.36.106.199 (talk) 17:15, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Godzilla vs. Hedorah

Instead of causing an edit war. Let's talk this out: The film was cited as one of the worst films of all time just because you think it doesn't deserve to be there because of a few later listings doesn't make it viable as an opposing case as far as I can tell. The film is frequently mentioned for being cited as such in books such as Ishiro Honda: A Life in Film and Japan's Green Monsters: Environmental Commentary in Kaiju Cinema and websites.

@Eiga-Kevin2 you said "Instead of causing an edit war. Let's talk this out:" but then without waiting for my response you reinserted your text, which is the very definition of edit warring. However I'm not interested enough in this issue to pursue it any further, so I'll let other editors decide. CodeTalker (talk) 17:19, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
