What to do after reverting Blatant Spam

I recently reverted a clear case of a link spam vandalism by XAnT1nGx. Given that they only have 3 edits I opted to warn them with spam or vandalism. This being such a blatant case I'm having trouble deciding between the level of warning, as the first few seem too soft for such a clear case.

So I'm asking for help on which template and level to use. Doerakpoes (talk) 16:02, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi Doerakpoes, thanks for reverting that! I assume you are referring to Special:Diff/1108092472. I would use {{subst:uw-advert2}} ({{subst:uw-advert3}} is also fine but I don't really like it personally), warnings vary a lot by editor. Skipping levels is fine when giving warnings. Have you tried installing twinkle or ultraviolet? They usually make warning users a lot easier. Justiyaya 00:44, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for the info and the suggestion of Twinkle. Using the gadget made it a lot easier to compare warnings and their different levels.
Furthermore, while using Twinkle I encountered a visual bug. Where can I report bugs? Doerakpoes (talk) 14:46, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
@Doerakpoes, what bug did you encounter? It can be reported at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle (please read the headers on top before leaving a message there). Justiyaya 16:03, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
After looking and selecting different options in the Twinkle warn-user menu, eventually the foldout menus for different warnings ended up appearing behind the entire popup. I only managed to get the foldouts to appear in-front of the popup again by reloading the page. this happened multiple times while evaluating warning messages (browser is Firefox). Doerakpoes (talk) 16:31, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
@Doerakpoes yeah I don't really know, might be worth leaving a message on the above link but I use firefox too and that doesn't really occur for me. Justiyaya 16:44, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

Question from Cisnedenieve (06:06, 15 September 2022)

I am Eunice Alejandra López Sánchez known as Eunice Shade, mexican-nicaraguan writer. Since months ago I asked to erase a page of my work because I do not know how the page ended in hands of another people that I do not know, without my authorization. And today appears this: https://es.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eunice_Shade&action=history&year=2021&month=12&tagfilter= I would like this to be erased. I would like also tell you that I HAVE NOT authorized any creative commons license of my work or something like it. I also would like to tell you that this another page of Wikipedia is not authorized by me and I would like this page be erased from internet because there is false material: :https://www.eswiki.org/wiki/Eunice_Shade I also would like to know how to register my material on internet for free, photos, writings, etc I also would like to open a new page on Wikipedia with my own edition because I need to update my things as I say because it is my job. I will appreciate your help, Eunice. --Cisnedenieve (talk) 06:06, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Cisnedenieve, the article appears to be deleted (or erased) on the Spanish Wikipedia already. Eswiki.org is not is not Wikipedia, sending a notice to that site may help. Opening a new page on Wikipedia would not be a really good idea, see WP:Autobiography Justiyaya 00:41, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Question from Boot Sanford (14:14, 16 September 2022)

Hi, when Iḿ doing the short fixes on articles should I just look for sections with headers (like the ones saying that it needs a more neutral tone), or should I do the whole article? --Boot Sanford (talk) 14:14, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Boot Sanford, you can choose to fix the whole article or provide short fixes on the section headers, either is fine. Do not use th, rd, or st when trying to express dates (example being November 30th) instead reference the examples listed in MOS:DATE, although there are certain exceptions to this (like you did at Special:Diff/1110613534, I've already fixed it for you). Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia and feel free to ask any additional questions. Justiyaya 15:09, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

Question from Project Insulin (18:57, 20 September 2022)

Hi Justiyaya, I am looking to create a Wikipedia page for my non-profit Project Insulin (Projectinsulin.org). Hopefully, it is not too hard to get this done any advice would be greatly apprecaited. --Project Insulin (talk) 18:57, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi Project Insulin, conflict of interest editing has a large potential of being a waste of time, if you wish to continue, I've notified you of a username issue on your talk page and you need to declare your conflict of interest with the subject following the instructions described at WP:COIDISCLOSE.

Question from Pgupta1997 on Baghmara, India (06:37, 24 September 2022)

hello! Can you suggest some edits for this article? Thank you --Pgupta1997 (talk) 06:37, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Pgupta1997, that article generally lack citations, content on Wikipedia needs to be verifiable. Unverifiable content needs to be removed. Finding more sources for the linked article would really help improve the page. Justiyaya 06:42, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
I have added some new information along with proper citation of those. Please have a look. Pgupta1997 (talk) 06:57, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
Hi @Pgupta1997, thanks for seeking a review for your edits. Unfortunatly, I've had to revert your edit due to several reasons. Generally, travel agencies/travel websites are not regarded as reliable sources, using news sources (non-English is accepted) to support these claims would be better. Do not remove IPA pronunciation guides, usually they are there for a reason, if you are unsure, check the guideline. Do not remove the nbsp tags from distances. Getting started editing can be really hard, feel free to ask me more questions or reviews of edits. Thanks again for making edits on Wikipedia! Justiyaya 15:09, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
Then how can we add more references in the article? Pgupta1997 (talk) 03:58, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
@Pgupta1997, you need to find better references, not more references, please see Wikipedia:Reliable Sources. Justiyaya 16:25, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
Also looking at the edit again, it has been identified as a copyright violation, please see the welcome message on your talk page for more information. Justiyaya 16:27, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Princess Lechang

First of all, allow me to express my appreciation to your review and suggestions.

About your first suggestion, to be honestly, at that time I created the article based on the ones used in vi.wiki and zh.wiki, therefore I re-used the title "princess Lechang" from them. Now I think about it what you suggest about changing the title and modifying the content is correct, because indeed the story and the idiom itself is more notable than the characters. I think I agree with your idea and we can proceed with such modifications.

About the translation of the phrase, I have to admitted that I am not fluent in English and therefore my writing/translation can be a bit weird and inaccurate. The word "重圆" literally means "reunited again", so the literal translated should have been "broken mirror reunited". However the word "amended" I used originated from the Vietnamese version of the idiom, "Gương vỡ lại lành", literally means "broken mirror healed/amended". The word "lành" in Vietnamese usually means "fixed, healed, amended" of a wound or a broken object. In many instances, I saw the phrase "Gương vỡ lại lành" used not to describe a reunited after separation, but a broken relationship amended, like a broken couple forgive each other and start lovey-dovey again. That come to my decision to use the word "broken mirror amended". If you have any suggestion about the name, please feel free to say.

On my opinion, if we finally decide use the phrase 破镜 重圆 as the title for the article, it is better to use an English translation already appeared on a book, written document, or authoritative website, rather than translate it ourselves. The problem is that there are a number of translation of this phrase on the written documents, and I don't know which version is the most orthodox. What do you think ? Inuyasha2021 (talk) 05:19, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

(see also discussion on their talk page)
@Inuyasha2021 Oh yeah you're right, the translation is "reunited", I was a bit confused. I do think "Broken Mirror Reunited" sounds better but both also sounds a bit poorly translated anyways. "mended" might be a better word for "amended" if you are going with your version (I don't really care either way). If there is a English translation already in a book, that is definitely preferred. If you have the sources feel free to cite them in the draft or link them below, if you want me to take a look after the rename feel free to leave another message below Justiyaya 05:44, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

@Justiyaya: There are many styles of translation of this term in various literature documents, for examples:

Conclusion: seems to be there is no standard, orthodox English translation of the term. Each author chose her own style that they themselves think is the best.

For now, I will change the content of the draft article to match the new title as you suggested, and I temporarily put the title as "The Broken Mirror Restored" as it is the closest translation to the original. However, as I am not 100% familiar with the technicality of wikipedia redirection and as we have not yet met the final conclusion of the accurate page name, I will left the page name "Princess Lechang" untouced and left a note saying that "the content does not match the title for ABCD reason". Would you mind perform the page redirection in my stead to that temporary name if you also see it as a proper solution ?

I would like to ask for your review as soon as I finish the neccessary modification. And again, thank you very much for your help so far. Inuyasha2021 (talk) 10:07, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

@Inuyasha2021 I would happily make the redirects after you've finished. Thank you for all the work put in to researching this and writing the article. Don't think there is much of an issue if we move the article afterwards if the title needs to be changed later anyways. Sorry about the short reply, my computer is running out of battery. Justiyaya 10:18, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

I just finished the modification. Feel free to review it as soon as your battery are fully charged. :P Thank you for your help. Inuyasha2021 (talk) 10:24, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Accepted Happy editing! Justiyaya 12:50, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
