Scientist of USA and Developer of Wikipedia visiting and detecting Mt Arayat
Hello im a scientist of USA. im here about Mount Arayat because their quarrel about potentially active vs extinct volcano. Yesterday morning at 7am. Me and Wikipedia Developers were went to hiking in Mount Arayat we reach the Northwest crater and we detect it. I say that crater is dead no fumarole and no weak steam. The extinct volcanoes is never become active again if you want to call that potentially active you can try to detect Mt Arayat properly not guessing. But we detect it properly and stop fighting about potentially active and extinct — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.150.34.191 (talk) 09:37, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, 49.150.34.191. On Wikipedia, statements should be backed up by Reliable Sources. If, as you claim, you observed the extinction of this volcano, then that falls under Original Research, which is not permitted. If you can verify a reliable source, feel free to reinstate the changes. Cheers, WikiMacaroonsCinnamon? 10:33, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
Regarding Steven Pinker's Page
I recieved a message from you. I don't think my contribution to the page is negative. I am merely restoring the page to its previous state by removing statements that are not supported by Wikipedia's policy of reliable sources. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.250.145.90 (talk) 17:28, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- @103.250.145.90 I see what you're trying to do, but Edit Warring is not permitted on Wikipedia. I would appreciate it if you and Mcnultea would attempt to find common ground, or if you'd rather I could report it.
Some stroopwafels for you!
You're doing a great job, keep it up. Sturdyankit (chat) 09:02, 26 July 2020 (UTC) |

DYK for Matchbox Educable Noughts and Crosses Engine
On 30 July 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Matchbox Educable Noughts and Crosses Engine, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in 1960, British AI researcher Donald Michie made a noughts-and-crosses-playing algorithm out of matchboxes? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Matchbox Educable Noughts and Crosses Engine), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Draft : Lexicon-grammar
Hi Macaroons, I edited further the page on "lexicon-grammar" and I wish to publish it. I'll keep to work on it, but I am sure some colleagues will do too once they see the page is there. As you see, I added the template "translated page". I hope it helps. Thank you for your work in Wikipedia --S.vecchiato (talk) 14:55, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
Rollback granted
Hi WikiMacaroons. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Cabayi (talk) 13:04, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
kim darby tv appearance
I saw this in 74 and didn't see it listed. Could you add Kim Darby as a young nurse on Marcus Welby, March 1974, season 5 episode 121 please. When I type in Marcus Welby, it shows up to verify. Thank you so much and I'll try not to do any more editing myself !!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.131.178.79 (talk) 19:36, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
Your reversion of my edit to Unseen Character
I actually DID provide an edit summary, which you apparently overlooked. My edit summary said "already discussed elsewhere, in more detail, with references." The text I deleted was: "On the sitcom Frasier, Maris Crane, the first wife of Niles Crane, is often referenced, but never seen." I did so because, AS I SAID IN MY EDIT SUMMARY, this information had been given elsewhere in the list, in more detail with references: "Vera Peterson from Cheers and Maris Crane from its spin-off Frasier are two of the most widely recognized unseen characters of American television,[33][28][34][35][36][37][25] though Vera's body (with her face obscured by a pie)[31] is seen in one episode, and her voice is heard in other episodes. Her voice was provided by Bernadette Birkett, the real-life wife of George Wendt who portrayed Norm Peterson, leading Wendt to comment that he never personally wondered what Vera looked like.[32] Maris is also seen as a silhouette.[38]" The two entries are redundant, and since the second entry provides more detailed information, and is sourced with reliable secondary sources, it should stay, and the first entry should be deleted. I will undo your edit. 2600:1700:12C8:10:5027:2912:23A8:474F (talk) 19:59, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
- @2600:1700:12C8:10:5027:2912:23A8:474F: You're correct, sorry, I didn't look at that carefully enough. WikiMacaroonsCinnamon? 20:03, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi WikiMacaroons, I'm Puddleglum, a coordinator over at the GOCE. Unfortunately, your recent copy edit of Lalo Salamanca wasn't quite up to the standards we expect at the requests page. The requester has asked that an experienced copyeditor check the article again - if you have the time, you may find it beneficial to watch the edits the user makes and learn more about the copyediting process through that. Thank you so much for taking the time to fix mistakes - all your revisions were good, there just weren't enough to fix all the errors in the article. Cheers! -- puddleglum2.0 04:15, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
Welcome to the GOCE!
Welcome to WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors "Make it say what it means and mean what it says" – Wikipedia: How to copy edit |
Hello WikiMacaroons, and welcome to the Guild of Copy Editors! We are glad that you have decided to help us in our mission to improve the quality of writing on the English Wikipedia. Here are some links that you might find helpful to get started on your copy-editing journey:
- A how-to guide to Wikipeda copyediting
- Wikipedia's Manual of Style (MOS), a helpful guide to refer to while copy editing
- A quick guide to writing on Wikipedia
You can help with copy-editing requests if you already have familiarity with the MOS and considerable English copy-editing skills, or start with articles tagged for copy editing to gain experience.
Thank you so much for joining the GOCE, we appreciate it!
For the GOCE, -- puddleglum2.0 04:18, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
The above is just a couple links and some guidance - inform think I have them to you like I do to most new copy editors. Hope you don't mind the extra section, enjoy! -- puddleglum2.0 04:18, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
