Dutch Low Saxon pages

When creating a new title for an article, please do not simply copy and paste the content into a new article; this is a violation of the GFDL, which states that the history of all the page's contributors must be preserved. Instead, simply move the page to its new title using the move tab at the top of the page. This will make the old title into a redirect to the new article while simultaneously preserving the page's history. Thanks. GlassCobra 20:57, 26 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~I'll take care of it.~~ I've taken care of the page moves, though I'll need you to go through and make sure the leads of the articles are titled properly. If you have questions in the future, please feel free to contact me. GlassCobra 04:54, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dutch Saxon renaming followup

Hey, thanks for taking care of those articles. Also, I took a look at Dutch Low Saxon Wikipedia and was highly impressed. Great work! GlassCobra 02:31, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Warring at Charlie Hebdo

Your recent edits seem to have the appearance of edit warring after a review of the reverts you have made on Charlie Hebdo. Users are expected to collaborate and discuss with others and avoid editing disruptively.

Please be particularly aware, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
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 the changes; 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 without further notice. Shuipzv3 (talk) 12:26, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice. For the record: I undid a user's misquote of a linked AP article, then this went back and forth a few times since the user kept reinserting the misquote. I then desisted from attempting to remedy the vandalism through further edits, and instead requested the user's blockage, which was effected by a moderator.

Disambiguation link notification for November 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Names of Germany, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Low Saxon (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.)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Ni'jluuseger

Thank you for creating Mark Canter.

User:Doomsdayer520, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thank you for this new article. Note that other editors have called for more citations, as the sources currently in the article do little more than announce Mr. Canter's existence.

To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Doomsdayer520}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

@Doomsdayer520:

Hi Doomsdayer520, thanks for reviewing Mark Canter. While it's stubbish, it certainly does more than 'announce Mr. Canter's existence'. My own criticism of the article is that it could be more thoroughly sourced and the nature of the sources is not ideal. But as I don't have access to any non-commercial sources beyond what I've already used for the article, there's nothing I can do there. After creating the article, I left a note about that at Talk:Mark Canter, which I'm copying below. Cheers! Ni'jluuseger (talk) 13:37, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

==Question regarding sources==

While I'm confident that the information in the article is correct (it agrees with biographical information I've read in the author's published books, only one of which I have at hand), I understand the need to beef up the sourcing. The nature of the online sources is not ideal, but they're all I'm able to access. The most extensive biographical details are from the author on his Amazon page - is this acceptable to cite as a source and to warrant preservation of the article? I've found that:

inline citations may be allowed to e-commerce pages such as that of a book on a bookseller's page or an album on its streaming-music page, in order to verify such things as titles and running times. Journalistic and academic sources are preferable, however, and e-commerce links should be replaced with non-commercial reliable sources if available.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources

I was only acting as the "messenger" on the citations issue, as it was raised by other editors. There is little risk of the article being deleted or anything like that, but it should be improved by the community going forward. Your point above on commercial sources is solid, and I would also recommend finding pro reviews of any of his books. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:57, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Doomsdayer520:

Cheers, and thanks for relaying the message. I hope more solid sources can be in time be found to beef up this thing. ;) Ni'jluuseger (talk) 15:55, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

European Language Equality Project: Invitation to participate in consultation

Hello Ni'jluuseger,

as an editor of a European regional language Wikipedia, maybe you would be interested in participating in a survey about the future of language technology and under resourced languages in Europe: Online questionnaire.

Miss Ruby Ray

Why did you name the article Miss Ruby Ray instead of Ruby Ray (actress)? Most actresses in those days were credited, and referred to in the press, as Miss so-and-so. Did you have a specific reason? -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:12, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did consider this issue. She is pretty consistently credited as Miss Ruby Ray, though as you say other actresses were also typically Miss this and that. Since in her case it's a made up name, it could be argued that it's not so much a title + first name + last name, but rather a "unit". I was also nudged towards including "Miss" in order to distinguish the actress more clearly from the contemporary photographer Ruby Ray. An argument can be made for using Ruby Ray (actress), though. In which case Ruby Ray should become a disambiguation page if they're considered of equal relevance, though I'm sure the photographer is currently better known. Ni'jluuseger (talk) 16:40, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You did the right thing. Lots of actresses used stage names, and we have many other articles using the same convention, If there are two notable actresses who used the same stage name, we say something like Ruby Ray (Edwardian era actress) vs. Ruby Ray (1920s actress), or similar. The only time we really use the honorific is when an actress acted under her married name, like "Mrs Patrick Campbell". Since nearly every actor of the Victorian and Edwardian eras was credited as "Miss or Mr so-and-so", it does not add anything to an article to say "credited as Miss...." I see that you already disambiguated the photographer; looks good to me. -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:57, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Richard Lynn

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Richard Lynn. 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:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
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. Generalrelative (talk) 16:04, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For the record: I made an edit, you reverted it once, I discussed it on your talk page, you declined discussion, I reverted your reversal once, stating reasons and inviting discussion on the article's talk page, you reverted my edit without discussing. I've seen your strategy elsewhere of being quick to accuse someone of edit warring. Ni'jluuseger (talk) 16:08, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And the instant removal from your talk page of the same template you just placed on mine is pathetic. You've sure got your strategy worked out to get your way. Ni'jluuseger (talk) 16:19, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
