Nigel Farage

[edit]

Hiya! Great new para in the lede. Can I interest you in trimming the whole lede? 😉 I could be wrong of course, but it looks to me to be far too long. And hasn’t been updated with very much about his post-Brexit political career besides him now being leader of Reform UK. All the best! Boscaswell talk 01:52, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do agree -- I've just trimmed a few sentences on your advice. It could certainly be trimmed further, but Farage will likely be elected to the Commons, so I believe reorganising the lede ought to be left until after the election. Keeper of Albion (talk) 10:31, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reform UK

[edit]

Hi mate, another editor has just put the private company thing back at the top of the lede. I’ve reverted, referring to your edit, and taken it to Talk. Boscaswell talk 20:31, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

July 2024

[edit]

Information icon Hi Keeper of Albion! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of 2024 shooting at a Donald Trump rally several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:2024 shooting at a Donald Trump rally, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 00:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware. I can't stand journalese or its prevalence. Keeper of Albion (talk) 00:10, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

September 2024

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Holocaust trivialization. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Mathglot (talk) 06:24, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Likewise. Keeper of Albion (talk) 19:05, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just a Head's Up

[edit]

Just so you know, I have raised your claims about the use of "the" in front of occupations or the notion of "false titles" as you assert to a group of other editors who've made major contributions to this page and many in this subject domain, atop mentioning your lack of civility at the AH Talk page.

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Big lie, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 05:34, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

More detail would be appreciated. Keeper of Albion (talk) 15:02, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is perfectly possible to change a section title without removing the section anchor. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 22:58, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to Willy's Chocolate Experience did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! Belbury (talk) 09:15, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
