== Welcome! ==

Welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for explaining more about why that timeline is a hoax article. I don't know why the creator keeps on editing it after it was exposed. [[User:Random86|Random86]] ([[User talk:Random86|talk]]) 05:36, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
:Thanks! I specifically joined Wikipedia to back you up on the hoax situation. Misinformation really bugs me, so I felt an obligation to try to get rid of it. At least there's a giant warning at the top of the page now, and the merge suggestion has been removed from both pages, so I think the only people who will be looking at it are editors like us, rather than innocent K-poppers. And I agree - the creator's continued editing (but not actual fixing) makes no sense. [[User:Gottagotospace|Gottagotospace]] ([[User talk:Gottagotospace#top|talk]]) 06:25, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page [[:Cross Gene]] has been reverted.<br />Your edit [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=712083931&oldid=712083081 here] to [[Cross Gene]] was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our [[WP:EL|external links guideline]]. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6l-CkRJOJs<!-- matching the [[regex|regex rule]] \byoutube\.com) -->) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a [[Wikipedia:Media|media]] file (e.g. a [[Wikipedia:Media help|sound or video]] file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's [[WP:COPYVIO|copyright policy]], as well as other parts of our [[WP:ELNO|external links guideline]]. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our [[Wikipedia:Upload|upload]] facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.<br />If you were trying to insert an [[Wikipedia:External links|external link]] that does comply with our [[Wikipedia:List of policies|policies]] and [[Wikipedia:List of guidelines|guidelines]], then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to [[WP:UNDO|undo]] the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's [[WP:EL|external links guideline]] for more information, and consult my [[User:XLinkBot/Reversion reasons|list of frequently-reverted sites]].

:Note to self: I sorted this out. The link was not a copyright violation and it was relevant to the article's contents, so I undid the bot's revert. [[User:Gottagotospace|Gottagotospace]] ([[User talk:Gottagotospace#top|talk]]) 21:32, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

==Asian 10,000 Challenge invite==
Hi. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge]] has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland [[Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge]] and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge]]. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like [[Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic)]]. For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon]] which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --[[User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao|<span style="font-family:Old English Text MT;">Ser Amantio di Nicolao</span>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ser Amantio di Nicolao|''Che dicono a Signa?'']]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/Ser Amantio di Nicolao|'''Lo dicono a Signa.''']]</sub> 02:06, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

That edit you made in the article about [[Eric Dick (lawyer)]] actually could be considered constructive; it just required a bit of a revised explanation and belonged in a different section.

Hello, you undid my edit to Nick Jordan (artist) as I missed out on giving a reason for removing COI template. Apologies for that. All info on page is now factual and neutral, with sources. I am the subject, so declare my COI. But would you mind checking the page and ensuring it meets your guidelines and removing the COI template? Any help much appreciated. I wasn't originally aware of the COI guidelines but am now. Also, I was originally editing the page back in April to remove unnevcessary info, and it kept reverting to previous versions, as it flagged up copyright violation (from a University website which repeated the text on the original Wikipedia page), so I was going round in cicles and maneged to get my IP banned for a day or so! If any editors can look over it and ensure it's all now ok that would be very much appreciated. Many thanks.

HiQ 1981 national competition

First national competition in the HiQ program WombatMcDougal (talk) 01:55, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gottagotospace removed my addition to the article about the HiQ program alleging a lack of a reliable source. The reliable source is me, Stephen Asbel. I was there, a participant in the competition. That makes me
a primary source which would be more reliable than a second hand publication from after the fact. WombatMcDougal (talk) 01:57, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate your enthusiasm for the topic, but you do not count as a reliable source. Please read Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:You are not a reliable source. If you have any additional questions, feel free to ask me or bring it up on the talk page for the article. Gottagotospace (talk) 02:03, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've got access to newspapers.com through the Wikipedia Library (you get it after having an account for 6 months plus making 500 edits), but the Wikipedia Library is down right now so I can't check it out. I'll try to remember to take a look tomorrow. Gottagotospace (talk) 02:35, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This user has been rapidly closing XFD discussions since the very first edit, and while some of them seems legit, some of them are clearly trolling. (ex.attempting to close a discussion before consensus is reached) Is this dude a sockpuppet? LTA? ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 01:20, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I don't know. I don't have the fancy permissions to check IPs. Maybe that one isn't a sockpuppet, but there have been a bunch of accounts with the same username structure (3 numbers at the end) trying to close the Daniel Finley deletion discussion (but no other deletion discussions) prematurely.

Hello Gottagotospace :D Thanks for the article, it seems to provide really thorough coverage. One minor thing though, while forbes articles are sometimes reliable, the ones written by forbes contributors are not. I've removed the citation and the information that is associated with it, feel free to restore with an alternative citation. If you have any questions, ping me! Justiyaya 03:01, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cool, thanks for your contribution! Gottagotospace (talk) 11:01, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for restoring the content with the new source :D
If you would like to, consider applying for rollback. It allows you to login to WP:Huggle which allows for much better patrolling. You have an impressive amount of recent changes work in essentially a week. I know it does say that applicants should have at minimum of a month patrolling on the page but I'm quite sure many admins would be willing to grant you the permission anyways given the amount of time you spent on patrolling. If you'd like to be safe about it, give it a few more weeks but do consider! Happy editing Justiyaya 14:20, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the advice! I will consider that, but I think I'll give it some more time to get more experienced first. Gottagotospace (talk) 14:28, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, you're fast

I went to make an account to properly add a reference to the K'tut Tantri article I edited and when I come back its already added! Im guessing you have the recent edits page open, cause I dont know how you got it done so quickly. Im guessing thats what a patroller does. TheAshran31 (talk) 14:12, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, that's what I do! When I'm patrolling, I have the recent changes page open and refresh frequently. So much comes through that I don't have a chance to look at all of it (that's why lots of people are recent changes patrollers - to increase the chance of each edit being reviewed), but I usually try to at least look at the biography articles. Thanks for your contribution! Gottagotospace (talk) 14:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Accidentally broke Maggie Lawson's info box while trying to remove partner history and you corrected before I got the chance within minutes, seriously incredible. Anyway wanted to explain I removed since I don't think it's common to include partner there especially when someone was later married. Don't really edit commonly so will let you overrule if I'm wrong on standards there but was surprised to see it. Traveler1500 (talk) 02:45, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I have seen partner in info boxes before when people dated for an extended period of time (like Maggie and that James guy apparently did), but I doubt it's required and I don't feel strongly about it so I didn't revert you again. Maybe there's a standard somewhere I don't know about, but it seems fine for now! At least her ex-husband is in the box. Gottagotospace (talk) 02:50, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wow this place works quick, in the time it took me to read your response you got an award. Bit overwhelming to be honest. TheAshran31 (talk) 14:34, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TheAshran31 The timing was completely coincidental! I awarded for earlier (and consistent) contributions. Jlahorn (talk) 20:32, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

❤💎
Wonder,
Good morning to you!
You wrote to me via. Wikipedia,
That if the edition of me was for fun?
I should rather use the sandbox.
I find that very inappropriate.
Because everything that has been made with heart.
Also has a great unique character, and a soul that?
It should be worth appreciating!
Art is multifaceted, and even more so to be considered when it has been applied with honest and good-hearted love, with good intentions.
I hope you can understand me.
I don't want to use the sandbox, if you mean sandbox, the platform for and against viruses and trojans!
I would like to tell you that I probably know what it is good for.
Best regards, may GOD PROTECT YOU.

Hello,

Although we disagree in regards to the language of that article, I appreciate you attempting to help educate the confused editor who edited the page repeatedly. I hope the comments we said, plus the warning he received cause him to change his ways and not assume guilt before conviction. Thank you, TanRabbitry (talk) 02:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TanRabbitry Thank you! By the way, I appreciate the civility and good faith you've shown throughout our discussion. I can see you have a clear desire to have a productive discussion about the language in the article, even though we have different opinions. It can be hard to "keep cool" with contentious topics like these. Gottagotospace (talk) 02:28, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you again for being consistent in your position. This debate seems to be getting somewhat out of hand. TanRabbitry (talk) 00:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TanRabbitry I've mostly stepped back from the participation in the topic discussion over the past few days because honestly it got kinda grating to see all the chaos. Based on what I have seen from your conversations (including the ones people have deleted), you might want to consider stepping back from the topic for at least a few days in order to give everyone the chance to calm down a little.

Gottagotospace User642 (talk) 18:05, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
User642 - You added the phrase "an ugly man called" into an article (see here). It sounds like you added your opinion, and I don't think your opinion of this person's appearance is necessary to explain for the plot. We try to keep things neutral and constructive on Wikipedia.

There's a few issues with your edits, but I think the most obvious one is the fact that info about his nipple piercings really doesn't belong on Wikipedia.

Hello, RAVI has stated in multiple interviews that his stage name is in all caps spelled as RAVI, not Ravi. Please also do not shorten the information on RAVI's ongoing legal case. People use Wikipedia to learn about his ongoing court case and his disabilities. This legal controversy is currently the most important topic about RAVI and it should not be cut from his page. Other public figures also have very detailed information on their pages, with no problems. This is not a violation of Wikipedia's policy, especially since RAVI's case is heading to the level of the supreme court, and is not yet fully resolved. Hyerinbear (talk) 12:48, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Regarding the all caps thing, we don't use all caps when they merely serve a stylistic function (see MOS:ALLCAPS). Also, for the section about his ongoing legal case, I wasn't planning on cutting out significant details about the legal proceedings, but merely condensing some of the language about his disabilities. Like maybe I'd change it to something like "Ravi has talked about having [insert condition] before, including on [TV show name here][citation], [TV show name here][citation], and [TV show name here][citation]." I think that'd be better than each TV show getting an entire sentence of its own, since it makes it more readable. Thank you for expressing your concern, and I will try to be careful when editing his page. Gottagotospace (talk) 12:59, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for clarifying and understanding. RAVI's disabilities are important to his controversy, but since we can't post videos on wikipedia, we decided on the individual descriptions. Hyerinbear (talk) 15:11, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kardashians

I totally get your good faith, but the sentence Notably extended relatives include Kendall and Kylie's half-siblings (through Caitlyn and her marriage to songwriter Linda Thompson) makes no sense at all. Two women couldn't marry and have biological children. We also do know that Bruce/Caitlyn publicly identified as a male back then. Your intention is good, but we must respect linguistics and common sense too. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 12:57, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Update: In order to avoid gender-specific pronouns, I rewrote that as Notably extended relatives include Kendall and Kylie's half-siblings (through Bruce/Caitlyn and their marriage to songwriter Linda Thompson). Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 13:04, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your point, but respecting someone's gender identity is more important than pronouns seeming to align in a way that makes "biological" sense. And yes, two women CAN marry and have biological children if one of them is a trans woman who still has fertility :) (I said "still has fertility" because a lot of the time, trans women become infertile due to various parts of the medical transition process.) Plus, I just checked Caitlyn's article, and it turns out she has dealt with gender dysphoria since her youth and even went on hormones for a while before marrying Kris. That lends extra credence to calling her "Caitlyn" and "she/her" throughout the entire article (except briefly mentioning her deadname once maybe). Many trans people spend *years* in the closet because transphobia sucks to deal with, but then eventually for a lot of them, it's like "I'm sick of pretending, I want to be myself even if I have to deal with all sorts of hate for it." Gottagotospace (talk) 13:19, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nope. The article has to make sense and be accurate, and that's more important than anyone's sensibility. We all know that guidelines and manuals of style are not rules, yet MOS:IDINFO (listing Caitlyn's example three times or more) is very clear about their birth gender identity being relevant. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 13:26, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How about we compromise by saying "through Caitlyn's marriage to songwriter Linda Thompson"? That way we don't use a pronoun at all there. Gottagotospace (talk) 13:29, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Feminine names only, without context? That would cause confusion. Keep in mind that we're talking about marriage and biological children. Linda married Bruce, not Caitlyn. They made those biological children as a man and a woman. I totally get using only the feminine name in other contexts, but here we're talking about gender-specific topics. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 13:43, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay I'm not a huge fan of the idea, but we could compromise by saying "Bruce/Caitlyn's marriage to songwriter Linda Thompson". Better? Gottagotospace (talk) 13:46, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I would have no objection to that. Have a good day 💜 Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 13:50, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Apology

I am sorry for my edits, in the words of Gottagotospace constituting vandalism, which was never my intention to do to the fine people of KCYS. What I said was fact, but I know realize it could have been potentially unnecessary. I'm sorry Gottagotospace. Goodedits123 (talk) 13:20, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the apology. You are more than welcome to stay and contribute constructively! That edit you made in the article about Eric Dick (lawyer) actually could be considered constructive; it just required a bit of a revised explanation and belonged in a different section. I can see someone potentially trimming back massive amounts of his article in the future to make the page sound less like an advertisement, so if your edit is removed in the future, that might be why. Gottagotospace (talk) 13:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! It definitely is an attention-grabbing slogan. I also just noticed that searching "Eric Dick" by default goes to a page about a soccer player, so I added something on top of the soccer player's page about that. It's a special template. You can go check that out at Eric Dick if you're curious about what I mean. Gottagotospace (talk) 13:32, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notable pakistani christians

Hello, recently I added the name of Brig Dr. Helen Mary Roberts in the list of Notable Christians of the article christians in pakistan but you re-edited and removed her name.

Added it to the list of notable christians because she is the first christian lady army officer of AMC (Army Medical Corps) who was promoted to the rank of Brigadier. CaptRaven (talk) 16:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@CaptRaven Yes, I left you a message on your Talk page about it. For your convenience, I will paste it here too:
Hello. Your recent edit to Christianity in Pakistan appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists.

edit

Hello, you undid my edit to Nick Jordan (artist) as I missed out on giving a reason for removing COI template. Apologies for that. All info on page is now factual and neutral, with sources. I am the subject, so declare my COI. But would you mind checking the page and ensuring it meets your guidelines and removing the COI template? Any help much appreciated. I wasn't originally aware of the COI guidelines but am now. Also, I was originally editing the page back in April to remove unnevcessary info, and it kept reverting to previous versions, as it flagged up copyright violation (from a University website which repeated the text on the original Wikipedia page), so I was going round in cicles and maneged to get my IP banned for a day or so! If any editors can look over it and ensure it's all now ok that would be very much appreciated. Many thanks. 84.92.55.233 (talk) 14:59, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
