I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Visa requirements for Lebanese citizens's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Timatic":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 14:29, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There have been a series of problems with the {{Timatic}} template... --BushelCandle (talk) 20:13, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Communication and collegial editor behaviour

Earliest record of the idiom deriving from a German proverb, das Kind mit dem Bade ausschütten equivalent to the English saying of don't throw the baby out with the bathwater' (Appeal to Fools by Thomas Murner, 1512)

I have been disappointed that even after I urged editor Norvik to use edit summaries, for the third time today he has undone other editors' actions—either in whole or in a substantial part without giving any clue as to why he negates other editors' efforts.

This terse exchange of views indicates to me that Norvik understands English well enough to understand my own edit summary of "Undid revision 849233824 by Norvikk (talk) since it had no edit summary explaining extensive revisions to other editor's work, ignored WP:IMGDD and duplicated an entire fingerprinting section without explanation"

Despite that edit summary, within the hour he started a whole series of damaging edits that

  • yet again flouted ignored WP:IMGDD by specifying strange image dimensions
  • restored a bad internal link to an old, incomplete and obsolete [[Visa (document)#Visa restrictions|Henley Passport Index]] page by removing the better link to our very recently, thoroughly revised and updated Henley & Partners Passport Index article
  • removed and mutilated citations and removed sourced material without any hint of an explanation
  • changed the updated syntax of {{#section-x::Non-visa travel restrictions|bad}} back to the inferior {{#section-h::Non-visa travel restrictions|List of common non-visa travel restrictions}} (thus removing the text "Many countries have entry restrictions on foreigners that go beyond the common requirement of having a valid visa or visa exemption. Such restrictions may be health related or impose additional documentation requirements on certain classes of people for diplomatic or political purposes." again without any hint of an explanation
  • yet again re-inserted the very same duplicated section heading of Fingerprints with only partial information and citations compared to the more complete transcluded section headed Fingerprints
Baby vs. Bathwater Annotated
Baby vs. Bathwater Annotated

Because Norvik is a very active and well-informed editor in regard to visa requirements, I do sincerely wish that he would begin to use edit summaries and selectively and painstakingly edit and improve the work of other editors and stop precipitately reaching for the revert button (consequently and carelessly 'throwing the baby out with the bathwater').

Consequently I would really welcome constructive suggestions as to how this aggravating behaviour can be dealt with... --BushelCandle (talk) 21:22, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I really don't like idiots. But I'll give you my time.
Tell me about the Romanian e-visa.
Tell me about the double information about fingerprinted. In the table and in the section Fingerprinting.
Tell me about double information about total stay period in the table.
I'm cleaning up this article, but you're vandalizing it.
My contribution to the development of visa articles is huge. Who are you to fucking lecture me? --Norvikk (talk) 13:57, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
