Hi Dlambe3 do you know how to upload pictures?96.36.68.29 (talk) 02:57, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t. I only know how to copy a picture already on Wikipedia and put it on another page. Dlambe3 (talk) 03:37, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Help With Some Changes That Need To Be Made

Hi, I was wondering if you can help me with some changes that need to be made.Ameet12345 (talk) 18:08, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is there anyway you can edit the changes I am about to write about on the List of United States federal judges by longevity of service. I would do it, but I don't know how to do it.

There is also one more thing that needs to changed. The article on John Richard Smoak Jr. is labeled incorrectly in terms of saying he is retired. I keep changing it to inactive senior status, but this one individual keeps changing it back to retired because I am not referencing an article. I do not know how to reference. Is there a way you can put a link to the Federal Judicial Center about John Richard Smoak Jr. on the John Richard Smoak Jr. Wikipedia page and change it to inactive senior status? The Federal Judicial Center information will be enough proof. Can you also go to the Northern District of Florida Wikipedia page and put John Richard Smoak Jr. on the list of current judges in the senior judge section? His name is on the list of former judges, and it should not be there. He is a judge on inactive senior status.Ameet12345 (talk) 18:49, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for making the changes! I don't mean to sound so demanding lol, but there were just some more things that needed to be fixed. For the George Wakem Lindberg article, under the federal judicial service section, it says he retired on December 31, 2012, this is incorrect. He took inactive senior status on December 31, 2012, and I kept changing it to inactive senior status, but someone keeps changing it back to retired. I was wondering if you could fix this, and maybe add a reference to back that up. With John Francis Grady, I contacted the Federal Judicial Service through email, and they told me that John Francis Grady took inactive senior status on January 30, 2015, not retired like many press reports said. It is possible those press reports meant inactive senior status when they used the word retired. That means that John Francis Grady should be on the list of United States federal judges by longevity of service, and should be under the total combined service section and the United States district courts section as he started his service as a federal judge on November 21, 1975.Ameet12345 (talk) 18:20, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I really appreciate what you did. Thank you so much.Ameet12345 (talk) 22:14, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is there anyway you can make a change on the United States Court of Federal Claims page? Can you go to the vacancies and pending nominations section and go to the date of vacancy and change the date for Victor J. Wolski, Charles F. Lettow, and Mary Ellen Coster Williams from July 14, 2018 to July 13, 2018? These three judges assumed senior status on July 13, 2018 according to the Federal Judicial Center, not July 14, 2018. I would do it, but I do not know how to operate tables, and I do not want to mess anything up.Ameet12345 (talk) 05:02, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: The table has been fixed. Dlambe3 (talk) 12:11, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for making the change.Ameet12345 (talk) 20:47, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is there anyway you can make a change on the List of United States federal judges by longevity of service page? Albert Vickers Bryan Jr. should not be listed as a current judge because he passed away on August 27, 2019, so this means his name should not be in blue in the total combined service section and the United States district courts section. Is there also a way you can add something on the Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies page? In the section nominations that were made at the end of Obama's term and later renominated, Robert J. Colville should be in this section as he was renominated by President Trump.Ameet12345 (talk) 02:22, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: The two changes have been made. Dlambe3 (talk)

For the List of federal judges appointed by Donald Trump, Judge Emin Toro was sworn in on October 18, 2019 according to the United States Tax Court website. I do not know how to change the began active service section, and I do not want to mess anything up. Would you be able to do it?Ameet12345 (talk) 15:17, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: The relevant pages have been updated. Dlambe3 (talk) 04:43, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

For the Daniel L. Hovland page, is there anyway you can fix the legal offices on the bottom as he went on senior status today? Also on the List of federal judges appointed by George W. Bush page, can you fix his date on the District courts section to reflect he went on senior status? Can you also put on Peter Welte's page under the legal offices section that he became the Chief Judge?Ameet12345 (talk) 22:21, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: The changes have been made. Dlambe3 (talk) 16:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This one person keeps making changes to the Sarah Pitlyk page in terms of when she began on the Eastern District of Missouri. She received her commission on December 5th, but this person keeps changing it to December 6th because he keeps citing a press release from the Eastern District of Missouri of when she was sworn in. While she was sworn in on December 6th, the Federal Judicial Center says she received her commission on December 5th. I am not sure what to do. Also for the Peter Welte page, can you put under the legal offices section that he became Chief Judge?Ameet12345 (talk) 01:38, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: Done

On the Michael Mukasey Wikipedia page, it lists him as an incumbent on the Southern District of New York, but he took senior status on August 1, 2006. I tried to edit it, but nothing changed. Is there anyway you can take a look at it?Ameet12345 (talk) 02:23, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: done

On the List of federal judges appointed by George W. Bush page, can you fix the date for Carlos Bea to reflect he went senior status on December 12th? Also for the List of United States federal judges by longevity of service, can you change on the total combined service section and the United States district court section that John Francis Grady is not on senior status anymore as he passed on December 2nd?Ameet12345 (talk) 23:36, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On Andrew Brasher's page, someone added some comments about civil and voting rights on the Biography section and the Nomination to appellate court section that I think are too partisan. Also the sources do not seem neutral. Is there anyway you can take a look at this and determine if anything needs to be changed or removed?Ameet12345 (talk) 18:03, 25 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: The first three changes have been made. For Judge Brasher, while the sources are definitely partisan, it would probably be easy to find an article in several reputable newspapers or websites that carried the story of the NAACP and Urban League opposing his nomination. However, I do agree that the language used was biased. I changed "anti-civil rights record" to "civil rights record".

Thank you for making change! There is one change that needs to be made on the List of federal judges appointed by George W. Bush page. Dora Irizarry took senior status on January 26th, but it has not been changed yet. I am not sure how to do it, and I do not want to mess anything up. Is there anyway you can make the change?Ameet12345 (talk) 04:22, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: It’s been updated Dlambe3 (talk) 15:36, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

On the Donald Trump judicial appointment controversies, is there anyway you can move Judge Wilson's info from the Failed nominees on the District court nominees to Confirmed nominees on the Appellate nominees?Ameet12345 (talk) 18:54, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Ameet12345: I’ve updated both areas. Dlambe3 (talk) 20:31, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for updating but don't you think that the Wilson info should be removed from the Failed nominees on the District court nominees since technically his nomination didn't fail?Ameet12345 (talk) 23:01, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well withdrawn nominations are usually counted as “failed” in the same way that nominations that expire due to sine die adjournment and are not resubmitted are counted as “failed” although his renomination to another seat succeeded. I guess because the entry under the circuit court explains the nominations to both seats I’d be comfortable removing it altogether from the district court.

Someone beat me to it. Dlambe3 (talk) 02:01, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
