This user is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.

Please put comments or questions on new subjects at the very bottom of the page, use a new section heading, refer to the exact title of an article and sign your message with four tildes. That will help me to see that there is something new on the page and will point me to the right article and person to be concerned with. This will allow me to reply faster. Thank you.

New messages, questions, comments: Put at very bottom of page, see text of this section

Please put new messages at the very bottom of the page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 08:39, 13 December 2012 (UTC) To clarify, the new item should not be below this message and not below the repeated message after my introductory paragraphs but at the very bottom of the page after every other item on the page. It will help me to understand what you are talking about to add a section heading, identify the article you are concerned with (if your question or comment refers to a specific article), using a link, probably putting the article title in the heading, and sign your edit with four tildes (~~~~) so I know to whom to reply. Keep an eye on this page because I may just reply here if the answer is simple and does not seem to be time sensitive. When I notice an out of order question or comment, I will move it to the bottom of the page and provide a heading if there is none already. Donner60 (talk) 22:32, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User Talk page policies and guidelines

• Help:Introduction to talk pages. • Help:Using talk pages. • Excerpts Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#User talk pages: While the purpose of article talk pages is to discuss the content of articles, the purpose of user talk pages is to draw the attention or discuss the edits of a user. Wikipedia is not a social networking site, and all discussion should ultimately be directed solely toward the improvement of the encyclopedia.

Users may freely remove comments from their own talk pages, though archiving is preferred. They may also remove some content in archiving. The removal of a warning is taken as evidence that the warning has been read by the user. This specifically includes both registered and unregistered users.

There are certain types of notices that users may not remove from their own talk pages, such as declined unblock requests and speedy deletion tags. See Wikipedia:User pages#Removal of comments, notices, and warnings for full details.

User talk pages are subject to the general user page guidelines on handling inappropriate content—see Wikipedia:User pages#Handling inappropriate content.

Personal talk page cleanup: On your own user talk page, you may archive threads at your discretion. Simply deleting others' comments on your talk page is permitted, but most editors prefer archiving.

From the section Editing comments, Other's comments in Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines:

Fixing format errors that render material difficult to read. In this case, restrict the edits to formatting changes only and preserve the content as much as possible. Examples include fixing indentation levels, removing bullets from discussions that are not consensus polls or requests for comment (RfC), fixing list markup, using <nowiki> and other technical markup to fix code samples, and providing wikilinks if it helps in better navigation.
Fixing layout errors: This could include moving a new comment from the top of a page to the bottom, adding a header to a comment not having one, repairing accidental damage by one party to another's comments, correcting unclosed markup tags that mess up the entire page's formatting, accurately replacing HTML table code with a wikitable, etc.
Sectioning: If a thread has developed new subjects, it may be desirable to split it into separate discussions with their own headings or subheadings. When a topic is split into two topics, rather than sub-sectioned, it is often useful for there to be a link from the new topic to the original and vice versa. A common way of doing this is noting the change at the [then-]end of the original thread, and adding an unobtrusive note under the new heading, e.g., :<small>This topic was split off from [[#FOOBAR]], above.</small>. Some reformatting may be necessary to maintain the sense of the discussion to date and to preserve attribution. It is essential that splitting does not inadvertently alter the meaning of any comments. very long discussions may also be divided into sub-sections.

Note that it is proper to use <nowiki> and other technical markup to fix code samples. ...............................

Please put messages, questions or comments at the very bottom of the page, i.e. after every other item on the page. If you put them here (immediately before or after this paragraph), I may either not see them or at least not see them very promptly. That will delay any reply from me to you. Please add a section heading, identify the article you are concerned with, and use a link, (if your question or comment refers to a specific article), probably putting the article name in the heading, and sign your edit with four tildes (~~~~) so I know to whom to reply.

Often I will reply on your talk page and may note or summarize that reply on this page. If you do not get a reply on your talk page, check back here. I may put brief replies here, especially if they do not seem urgent. Keep an eye on this page because I may just reply here, especially if the answer seems simple and does not seem to be time sensitive. If you have a user name, I will try to remember to ping you if I just leave a return message here. As far as I know, IP addresses cannot be pinged. When I notice a question or comment that was not placed at the bottom of the page, I will move it to the bottom of the page and provide a heading if there is not already a heading. Donner60 (talk) 22:32, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you put a question or comment on this page but not at the bottom of the page despite the above request, and you can not find it if you check back, I have moved it to the bottom of the page in a new section with an appropriate heading if there was none. If your edit was disruptive, vandalism, uncivil, nonsensical or abusive, and you do not find the edit on this page, it is because I have deleted it. In most such cases, I will also put another warning on your talk page, but will not otherwise reply to it. (I will reply, however, if you then leave a civil and reasonable followup with a legitimate question or comment and some reference or reasonable explanation.)

Disambiguation link and bracket bot notifications

I occasionally get one of these notices. I fix the link or bracket, then delete the message, as the messages state is permissible, instead of further cluttering up these pages. Donner60 (talk) 05:13, 19 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Korean Englishman

Hello,

The edit on the Korean Englishman page was deleted because of the lack of source. I did not mention the source because it was coming from their main YouTube channel. The direct link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gQzvV_yGMM

There are plenty of other sources like this one: https://www.allkpop.com/article/2020/10/josh-of-the-popular-youtube-channel-korean-englishman-feels-responsible-for-his-wife-gabiekooks-actions-and-states-he-will-stop-his-activities

Regards 125.237.38.145 (talk) 04:53, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I struck my original message to you because you were in good faith. Please insert a source into the article. I left links to some helpful Wikipedia info and guideline pages on your talk page. Donner60 (talk) 03:44, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

2020 California Proposition 22

Hi Donner60, I think you made a mistake in reverting my edit. I edited 2020 California Proposition 22 without adding a source because there are already sources cited in the article documenting the statement I made. The statement is: "The companies have also forced their workers to support and promote the legislation: Uber sends its drivers in-app messages forcing them to click on either "Yes on Prop 22" or "OK", Instacart ordered its workers to place pro-Prop 22 stickers in customers' shopping bags, and DoorDash forces delivery drivers to use bags saying "Yes on 22".<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-10-23|title=Uber drivers sue, say company 'coerced' them to support Prop 22|url=https://www.cnet.com/news/uber-drivers-sue-they-say-company-coerced-them-to-support-prop-22/|url-status=live|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2020-10-24|website=CNet|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-10-20|title=Gig Companies Are Making Their Workers Promote Prop. 22|url=https://www.kqed.org/news/11842964/gig-companies-are-making-their-workers-promote-prop-22|url-status=live|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2020-10-24|website=KQED|language=en-US}}</ref>". Someone else edited this to say that the companies "encouraged" workers to support and promote the legislation. But the sources already cited in the article document that the workers were not "encouraged" to support and promote the legislation, but forced to do so. So I believe that the original wording was accurate. Could you please revert your change? Thanks.2604:2000:2B82:B700:B960:4BDF:FB0A:6AAF (talk) 01:20, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I rolled back my edit and struck the message on your talk page. Thanks for the explanation. Donner60 (talk) 01:25, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Added no wiki to keep footnotes in this section. Donner60 (talk) 03:47, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"You removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

I am a heavy contributor to Wkipedia and have been here a lot longer than you have. The article was written by BLM. Stop editing my corrections before I am finished. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrs Shafransky (talk • contribs) 01:52, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Right. You have 10 edits and have been editing since yesterday. I suggest you finish and justify edits and not make them piecemeal - if in fact that is what you are doing. I also suggest you see Wikipedia:Civility before you leave further messages that stray even further. Otherwise, giving some actual sourced information or backup instead of simply making unsupported assertions would be preferable.

Since your edit is simply untrue, I would simply delete this as vandalism but I will leave it for a brief time due to the fact that I have added a reply. Donner60 (talk) 02:01, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is not untrue and I have been trying to edit for three hours.

My edits are completely true. The original article was written by BLM supporters. And apparently has been hatcheted by BLM supporters.

Instead of being uncivil, WHY DON'T YOU HELP ME? This is disgraceful after all the money I have contributed to Wikipedia.

If you bothered to check them out, my revisions are accurate. I wanted to add information about how no one realized Officer Mensah is black. They assumed the officer was white. There was no racism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrs Shafransky (talk • contribs) 03:36, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I added this to your talk page: "I am striking the above message because I accept your second explanation as in good faith and will note that on my talk page. I am sorry this has produced a misunderstanding. Please be aware that editing piecemeal without explanations in the edit summary or a note in the edit summary to look at a more complete explanation on the talk page can lead a reviewer to think that your partial edit is all that you intend to make and it does not comply with guidelines. I have not further edited the article after your first message." I also added helpful links to Wikipedia guideline, policy and help pages. Donner60 (talk) 03:45, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NFAC

If a user posts a claim, they have to provide support for that claim specifically the inclusion of "Black Nationalism" in the description of this group. Also actual proof of a connection to Black Jerusalem as opposed to a article that has nothing but innuendo and no specific sources. These statements would be no better than hearsay or gossip. "In one sense it (NFAC) echoes the Black Panthers but they are more heavily armed and more disciplined... So far, they've coordinated with police and avoided engaging with violence," he said... And while Mockaitis said NFAC has made some questionable comments, including challenging White armed groups during a Georgia rally, he does not believe the NFAC has an overtly racist ideology."

My reverts had to do with the substitution of "self-defense." Other edits made at the same time may have been carried with it. I suggest you make the changes separately with justification or explanation of them in the edit summary and by citation where needed. Donner60 (talk) 01:42, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My deletion of "Black Nationalist" group and other heresay was that Whomever started the page didn't cite a single article proving such separatist intent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Knightinkarma (talk • contribs) 04:47, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gender bender

I feel like you quickly did away with my findings instead of researching them first. Please come back to me with your research! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:5C0:C280:88F0:7C75:2923:8365:D544 (talk) 03:04, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You cited nothing in support of your edit. The subject is not mentioned elsewhere in the article. The entry was completely out of context. Donner60 (talk) 03:09, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And this: From Wikipedia:No original research: "Wikipedia's content is determined by previously published information rather than by the personal beliefs or experiences of its editors. Even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it. The policy says that all material challenged or likely to be challenged, and all quotations, needs a reliable source; what counts as a reliable source is described at Wikipedia:Verifiability#Reliable sources". From Wikipedia:Verifiability: "All content must be verifiable. The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and is satisfied by providing an Wikipedia:Citing sources#Inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution" and "Articles must be based on reliable, third party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.

She's 43. She looks 43 to boot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.69.88.176 (talk) 06:15, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Imdb, though not necessarily free from editor or an approved source, shows a birth date in 1980. https://www.celebsages.com/sally-bretton/ says she's 40. https://biographypedia.org/sally-brettons-biography-husband-children-net-worth/ gives your date. Maybe you should just cite that if you think it is right. Donner60 (talk) 06:23, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

kamakshi amman temple

yes,i had changed a little bit. The story is an stone inspriction placed at the temple site,right behind the sanctum sanctoram,where the Lord resides. i am afraid,that our puranas and texts are inumerable to have all the sources uploaded already. still i can try posting a reference image from the text,giving us this information.

Shastha ,son of Kamakshi was breastfed in this temple. The diety is often called Apithakuchalamba,one who has not breast fed directly.but in Brahmanda purana,we have a reference text,which says that lord shastha is the only one son out of her three sons to have this privilege.

The stone inscription outside,further states that,the lord Shastha was filled with gold (pallava king) to rectify a draught. i have many more edits ,i shall try to post the photos of the text,where i am citing from. Indian scriptures are too voluminous for everything to be hosted in the web :) by adding on to the edits,i am just increasing the scope of knowledge and in-depth research for people surfing about the temple.kindly consider.

I struck my original message on your talk page because you are in good faith. However, you do need to provide a reliable, verifiable, third party source. If the scriptures or relevant excerpts are on the web, that can be cited. If not, you can cite to the pages from a print edition following the guidelines for full citations and footnotes in the links I put on your talk page. You can add images if they are free from copyright. This is discussed at Wikipedia:Copyrights. I have left some further comments and links to helpful Wikipedia guideline pages on your talk page. Donner60 (talk) 04:01, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You popped up in a page while i was viewing one

It said "Hello, I'm Donner60. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 07:08, 26 October 2020 (UTC)"

I'm confused~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.32.105.90 (talk) 20:50, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Apocalypto

Respected Donner60,

I need to discuss about a user named 125.160.98.148 who is making Unsourced and unexplained edits on Apocalypto's Wikipedia page. This user claims that 20th Century Fox is an international distributor for Apocalypto. However, (according to the region I live in) this might not be true. Upon looking this user's IP address up, I found out that this user is from Indonesia (hinting that his edit is possibly true only in Indonesia). Whenever I revert his edits, he changes them back. Please do look into this matter so I can find out if his edits are true or vandalism

Thanking you, 110.44.102.123 17:34 (UTC), 6th November 2020 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.44.102.89 (talk) 17:06, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

P. S. In case you are not available, please suggest another Wikipedia who can solve this problem.
