Attention: I prefer to keep discussions unfragmented. If you leave a comment for me here, I will most likely respond to it on this same page—my talk page—as an effort to keep the entire conversation in one place. By the same token, if I leave a comment on your talk page, please respond to it there. Remember, we can use our watchlist to keep track of when responses are made. At the same time, feel free to send an alert to me on this page about a comment you have left elsewhere.

Thank you!

The Mandela Catalogue[edit]

Hey do you mind keeping an eye on the article (and by extension the talk page) in case someone makes poorly or unsourced edits that violates BLP? Trade (talk) 20:25, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks![edit]

Hi there, I just wanted to thank you for also keeping track of all those attempted COI edits on the "Polyvagal Theory" page. It's nice not to have to do it alone...

Goulash[edit]

Please explain what you considered a spam citation and why. Also, how did I break formatting? LesMezei (talk) 19:52, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You broke the article's section headings, and you pasted in a link to 'theasguard.com', which appears to be a small insurance company. MrOllie (talk) 21:06, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about the asguard link. I changed it to something else but the system seems to default and revert back to that when I submit the changes. I didn't realize it was reverting. It's not intentional. I'm not sure if it's a bug in the editor or something I'm not doing right. I just put in a new citation LesMezei (talk) 13:38, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia doesn't really use dictionaries as cites much, either. And you definitely should not be filling in your own name as the author of the dictionary. MrOllie (talk) 13:41, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The system said I needed a citation after claiming that Goulash had a secondary meaning in English. How else can that be cited accept via a dictionary? Sorry about my name as author. I thought it was to name the author of the citation. Can that be left blank. I'm still learning the system.
Theasguard link may be coming from the autofill function in my RoboForm password manager (it's my business email and website). I remove it when I see it but something in the editor seems to be re-triggering the autofill when I change screens or check a help link. I'll have to double check all the fields before I submit anything. LesMezei (talk) 14:05, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
