One Year Later (song) = Ballad is a genre??

Hi, the song One Year Later (song) is actually a K-pop genre, and ballad is a type of song, not a genre, but User:FudgeFury undid it since he thought that "ballad is a genre" in the infobox. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.171.176.192 (talk) 12:09, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello. You might want to discuss this issue with the user in question. Maybe he can explain his reasoning. Widr (talk) 12:44, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Steele has long been known as an apologist for white racism. He earns his way by trashing African Americans and our culture. My edit is accurate; please put it back! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.170.195.6 (talk) 00:48, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

My Bleach characters edit

Concerning my edit which you undid, I forgot to mention during my edit that I said on the talk page more than a week ago that I don't think that those characters should be there. They are filler characters, have no impact on the main plot and there is not much to say about them. Since nobody objected for over a week, I thought it was okay to remove that, only keeping the main villain of that filler arc and characters that come from the manga and are importand to the plot. 91.179.164.136 (talk) 14:01, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

Your revision of my changes

Hi Widr,

this is what you wrote:

"Hello, I'm Widr. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to List of South Park characters because it did not appear constructive.

Widr (talk) 17:20, 25 July 2013 (UTC)"

What is not constructive about adding correct information where before only was a "?"?

This wiki here tells us that Dougie is voiced by Tray Parker:

Willard Espy?

I realize I'm a little late in responding (ok very late) but since I haven't the foggiest idea who Willard Espy is I seriously doubt I attempted to edit his biography. I apologize for any trouble but suspect this was done from my IP perhaps before it was my IP (I only became aware of it when I attempted to edit an unrelated article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.144.248.97 (talk) 05:32, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Show Business Inc.

Hi Widr,

I appreciate your attention and help. I was trying to clean up some of the inconsistencies and outdated info. I believe Wiki deleted the page (A7), which is correct.

Thanks again,

Hi Widr, I'm a regular editor, as you can tell by my contributions history, but must have made this edit without being logged in. I can't honestly remember what I changed regarding the page "List of Aircraft of World War II" so I apologise if I've messed up in some way. I proof read by trade so I'll be ashamed if I've made an error. Cheers Solatha (talk) 22:40, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Crysler's farm

How can my edit not appear construtcive, the source clearly cites Crysler's farm as a decisive victory? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.253.93.214 (talk) 16:57, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Please take the issue to the talk page of the article where it has been discussed before. Widr (talk) 17:02, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Stetson

But Stetsons ARE cool. What I added was a genuine quote from the Show. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Builder396 (talkcontribs) 20:15, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for explaining. I removed the warning, as this obviously was a good faith edit. I'm not sure if the addition is really needed in the article, though. Widr (talk) 20:39, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello! what I did with Sukbin Choe's Wikipedia page was returned it to its original page. A lot of revisions were already been posted on it which is based on some tv dramas. I truly believe that we should post those who have accurate sources, and posting something that was based on tv drama might cause confusion among its reader. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.144.103.197 (talk) 16:39, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Take On Mars

Could you file move Take on Mars to Take On Mars. The correct spelling of the game is with a capital "O".
Thanks,
Cky2250 (talk) 21:10, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately that is not a valid reason to move a file. Please see WP:FMV/W. Widr (talk) 12:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
Sorry I meant page move which is a valid reason for the title being misspelled. After reading that article I don't think I need you for this though. So this post can be archived. Cky2250 (talk) 23:29, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

One Piece

Hi Widr,

I'm a native Japanese speaker/reader, and I noticed a mistranslation in the One Piece page. "Onigiri" had been translated to "dumpling", which I corrected to "rice ball". Rice dumplings, or dango (団子), have the rice mashed together into a smooth undifferentiated lump like with mochi. Onigiri are balls of sticky rice with the individual grains intact, as the onigiri page shows. Note that that page also translates Onigiri as "rice ball".

I corrected this mistranslation, but you reverted it. Would you mind if I revert the revert? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Densuke (talkcontribs) 19:38, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

I reverted your edit, because you removed plenty of content from the article. See here. You are free to correct the translation, but please don't delete other material. Widr (talk) 20:06, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Protection of Austin Mahone

Hi, I'm contacting you cause you're the most recent de-vandaliser to edit the article on Austin Mahone. There's been a steady stream of vandal reverts going back over a month and doesn't show any sign of stopping. More recently, two people vandalised it in a short time-frame, then ClueBot reverted the more recent vandalism, only to leave the older vandalism there! (An IPs manually removed it now.) I think the article probably need to be protected but since I'm still new I don't know if it should be PCP or semi-protected. I know how to request protection though: there's a button in Twinkle to do that.

Thanks, RainCity471 (Jackc143) [talk] 10:53, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Semiprotection is better, in my opinion - please go ahead and make the request. I considered the same last time I visited the article. Widr (talk) 11:15, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for your advice, I'll do that. RainCity471 (Jackc143) [talk] 12:25, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

STiki emergency

Response to Warning

Hi Widr,

I wanted to let you know that I was in the process of the citing the claim for Lucas Cruikshank when you posted on my talk page. It was less than 5 minutes from when I made the change and was grabbing the sources to when you posted on my wall. Would you please remove that? I feel that it was an unnecessary warning and message to me. If you go back and see, I added the two sources for the article.

Sincerely, Bigbear213

I'll do that, although it would be helpful to add sources at the same time when you add content to the article, especially if it's controversial. Also note, like another editor pointed out, that the information was already mentioned in the article. Widr (talk) 21:15, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

I clearly missed where it was stated earlier in the article, and thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bigbear213 (talkcontribs) 21:20, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Marathon des sables

Perhaps inadvertendly, you have removed new and useful info which had recently been added to the article. (See article's Talk). I have therefore reverted your own edit, which had effectively impoverished the article, with no explanation (and, to the best of my knowledge, no reason). Please do not erase new info added to Wikipedia, and do motivate your impactful actions. Thanks! --217.201.66.13 (talk) 18:50, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

Those additions were formatted incorrectly which was the reason I reverted them in the first place. They are fixed now. Widr (talk) 19:12, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
If an entry is formatted incorrectly, a good Wikipedian will fix the formatting, not remove the entry altogether. The whole sense of what we are doing here is to cooperate towards an ever-better product. Thanks. --109.53.71.80 (talk) 14:21, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
That might be the ideal situation, but please remember that format is as important as the content. You really should not press "save" until you have checked the preview version of the page. You are not supposed to expect others to clean up your mess; RC patrollers are not likely to spend a lot of time fixing your formatting errors. Widr (talk) 15:58, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Re: July 2013

Hi i was wondering why i had a recieved a message stating that i had made a recent contribution to the Andrew Castle page? Regarding this, i would like to mention that I have never made a contribution to that page. tommyhew85 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tommyhew85 (talkcontribs) 06:35, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

According to your editing history, you have edited that page in June 2012. Widr (talk) 06:40, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Well on my editing history i have only edited 2 pages. Acre, Israel and Hyperion (Mythology). I am the only person with my login details, no one else has my account info. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tommyhew85 (talkcontribs) 06:47, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Ah, oops - you are right. I mixed up Acre with Andrew. Anyway, I have no idea why you would receive such a message. Sorry. Widr (talk) 06:51, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

On what page? Widr (talk) 15:36, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

India–United Kingdom relations

It seems you undid the request to cite sources on the UK-India relations page? That statement is factually inaccurate, according to the UK ONS India does not even figure in the top ten of foreign investors in the UK, well behind the US, Japan and numerous European countries. In fact it is rather an absurd claim which doesn't even intuitively seem correct - could you get this rectified please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.246.162.89 (talk) 12:22, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

I reverted your good faith edit, because that was not the proper way to make the request. Here you might find some better options. Widr (talk) 13:35, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I am not really a Wikipedia expert - could you do whatever is standard for this? I actually only wanted to do something to raise the fact that it needs changing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.246.162.89 (talk) 14:25, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

questions

Hi widr,

I have been notified by the Wikipedia team that my addition to the Mercedes Benz 420 article was deleted due to offensive material. I honestly see my edit as a positive and extremely helpful statement to the article. If you could please explain why my edit was foolishly deleted, that would be swell. I am a new user and I'm trying my best to do what's right for the Wikipedia community. I am deeply sorry that you found my comment offensive.

I just noticed you moved the title of one of my files ("File:A Grave dated to 1806.jpg"-->File:Unidentfied residence.jpg) to a new one. I meant to ask someone to do it, but completely forgot! The new title is also ideal, as I am not permitted to disclose the name of the residence in the photo. Thanks again! --Somchai Sun (talk) 23:18, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Ben Alnwick

Hi Widr,

I changed the content on Ben Alnwick's page at Ben's request. He wanted me to correct the mistake of his height (it is now correct at 6"2). I also removed the sex tape scandal paragraph as it is not factually correct. I am Ben' s legal representative and if the content is changed back I will need to pass it over to my legal team at Manleys law firm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.26.25.184 (talk) 09:49, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
