Disambiguation link notification for February 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Deuterium-Tritium fusion, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nucleus. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Dickie Pride

Hello, What a terrible shame that rhe truths now removed from the above Subject's hisrory are noe obly to ve read in the editorial notes, to which I should say few refer. I you explore the singer's history with application, rather than just as a passing observer, you'll see that these matters are true, It should be no pleasing thought to anyone whose time is given to the pursuance of truth, such as a dictionary's Editor, that after their day's work is done there is less truth in the world. It's simmilar to taking a rubber across mankind's collective memory; the individual consigning their own time, and the dictonary's entire purpose into a waste paper basket. I do need to learn gow to insert a reference no.; but before then tbere should be an intermediary point, between inclusion and expulsion of truths. Inn this instance i'm truly sorry to report that your time has been used only to deny interested parties the opportunity of furthering their knowledge of a chosen subject; in a dictionary this must surely be seen as the truest representation od time-squandered "Vandalism" there could ever be ? However, having eexpressed myself, I'll leave it there, widh you well, and leave it to others to research, now, rather than to take the now lost opportunity hust to read these 'tippexed-truths' for themselves. 213.205.241.183 (talk) 14:15, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please make the English understandable? I barely get the gist of your message. But remember, Wikipedia does not lead, it follows. Thank you. Sungodtemple (talk) 14:22, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Apologies for the typos. To type with one usable arm, at present, is difficult. All but the third line, first paragraph, I'd say, despite the typos, are decipherable. That line should have read: "... history are now only to be read in the [editorial notes]". Near the end, I "Wished" you well; I still do. I restate that to remove the truth from a dictionary is a squandering of the Editor's time; and, a wilful depredation of other's opportunities to learn from other's researches. I'm happy to leave it there. If other's want to learn more of the truth of the subject, they should read the now-deleted edits. Or, they could just click on the irrelevant, and now-reinstated link of 'Croydon', and read, instead, why all should be well advised never to visit the dump, instead of about the subject himself; whose poor fortune kept him at No.74, Parchmore Road, rather than allowing him to leave it at the first opportunity his elusive success should have provided.

You Corrected me on my edit of Benito Martinez

thanks is hard to navigate some of the info here is incorrect much like Benito himself reference but no one corrects that! why is it? Sungodtemple — Preceding unsigned comment added by Louis De La Costa (talkcontribs) 14:26, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About Vera Fischer

Hello Sungodtemple. You reverted my edition on Vera Fischer. Her birth name is not Vera Lúcia Berndt Fischer. Her birth name is only Vera Fischer. Her name in the references links does not have "Lúcia Berndt". The Portuguese wikipedia page was already fixed and I'm trying to fix in other languages too.--Lflrocha (talk) 16:56, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Her IMDb says that her birth name is Vera Lúcia Berndt Fischer. Most of the other links are dead links, so there is not much else to go off of. Sungodtemple (talk) 18:54, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Arvid Harnack

Hi @Sungodtemple: How goes it? Thanks for that edit. Good work, that was quick. Also while I'm here. IMDB isn't a trusted source as it's a WP:SPS. You can take it with a grain of salt. If you need any help on anything, please give me a shout. scope_creepTalk 16:06, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

HELLO best intentions here

I wonder what was contentious. Respect and cheer, mic Electricmic (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 20:09, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The specific problem was a random YouTube video. Youtube is a disputed external link (see WP:External links/Perennial websites#YouTube). If it is appropriate, add it back (with an explanation in the edit summary). Thanks. Sungodtemple (talk) 20:14, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

SS Prague

Hello Sungodtemple. Hope I'm writing this in the right place - I've never tried to respond to an edit! Thanks for your message about my edit of the SS Prague page in which I added the information that the ship brought the first group of about 200 refugee ‘Kindertransport’ children to the UK, on the overnight ferry from Hook of Holland to Harwich, landing on December 2 1938 (not 1939 as in my edit). There are many references to the date but the only evidence I have found that it was the SS Prague is a film taken by a cameraman for Time magazine, hence my YouTube reference. As YouTube is not accepted as reliable, would this source for the film be accepted: https://zb-media.com/en/the-kinder-december-2-1938/? Warwickshire Warrener (talk) 14:17, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Warwickshire Warrener: Most likely. In the future, I would recommend using the article's talk page. Thanks. Sungodtemple a tcg fan!!1!11!! (talk) 16:04, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You reverted my grammar fix on the Jade page?!

Hi my name is Jeremy.

I'm replying to your message here.

I'm sure that your intentions were honourable, but contrary to the thrust of your message, the change that I made was both intentional and constructive! The previous (and now following your reversion; current) "From to 1964 to 1981" on the Jade page (in the Southeast Asia section) does not make sense and is not correct grammar.

Personally I probably would have preferred "Between 1964 and 1981", but I figured that the smallest possible change set was preferable and the most constructive approach. So I merely removed the first "to", to produce a sentence that makes sense and is correct English grammar.

I was just trying to do my little bit to improve Wikipedia. If you still disagree, oh well whatever... I don't care enough to fight you over something so insignificant, so you do whatever you want...

--118.209.95.9 (talk) 03:45, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah I see. I've self-reverted. Sungodtemple a tcg fan!!1!11!! (talk) 13:46, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Good on you! Cheers. :) 118.209.95.9 (talk) 22:02, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Signature links

Your signature is confusing with five random irrelevant links and a very low relevance tcg link. WP:SIGLINK says: "Brief additional internal links are generally tolerated when used to facilitate communication or to provide general information". PrimeHunter (talk) 12:58, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello sir or madam good evening please I am a music producer and I want to know how I can make money with my talents --Master Kay Beatz (talk) 14:40, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Master Kay Beatz: Wikipedia editors (also known as 'Wikipedians') don't edit Wikipedia to make money - they are volunteers. If you are trying to ask a question related to music, please go to the reference desk. Thank you. Sungodtemple (talk) 14:47, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Simangele Mgaga, can you please tell me what you are referring to? Sungodtemple (talk) 14:30, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Source unreliable because it's conservative?

You used this edit summary in tagging a source in the Rebekah Jones article: "adding unreliable source tag, as human events is generally conservative". While The source indeed doesn't measure up in terms of reliability, I am unaware of any stipulation WP policy or guidance that if a source is "conservative" it is therefore unreliable. Can you please explain? Thanks. Anastrophe (talk) 05:06, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking, since Rebekah Jones was involved in Florida's COVID statistics, Human Events could be unreliable (it's conservative, conservative Florida governor wants to reopen and possibly wants to hide the number of COVID cases they had). It is a bit of a stretch though, I must say. Sungodtemple (talk) 11:52, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Son of ferro (05:38, 16 May 2021)

Hello, on reading the entry about Toyota Industries Corporation, I found that there was no direct links to one of its subsidiaries (that I have worked for for many years). I then searched for entries regarding this subsidiary and found information on the Swedish language Wikipedia. It strikes me that there is potential for improving the linking of these entries. So my questions are: 1)How to establish if an entry found in one language is referenced or even exists in a different language Wiki? 2) If the entry does not directly exist in another language, should it first be created? OR Can entries written in one language be linked to entries written in another language? This feels like a good place to start my editing journey. In the meantime, reading and digesting all the "How tos" I can get my hands on. --Son of ferro (talk) 05:38, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Son of ferro, you can translate articles into another language from other Wikipedias, although there are a few pitfalls you may run into. First, the machine translation will be absolutely terrible, and you need a good understanding of both languages to make a good translation. Second, you must give proper attribution to the Wikipedia you translated it from. Third, other Wikipedias have different criteria for inclusion, and make sure that the article follows the English Wikipedia's criteria.
Also, I noticed you say you have worked for a subsidiary of Toyota for a while. This is called a conflict of interest, or COI. It may be hard to keep a neutral point of view when being a COI editor, so be careful! Sungodtemple (talk) 14:56, 16 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

The Editor's Barnstar
Thanks for the feedback. I'll consider the points you made and have a little think about how I will approach this. Son of ferro (talk) 09:29, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Son of ferro, you may not want to give a barnstar for a talk page reply (see User:Gwillhickers/Trivializing and misuse of awards). You may want to use a thank instead. Although, thank you for showing WikiLove. Sungodtemple (talk) 11:44, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Joegates2015 (15:27, 17 May 2021)

Hi there, how do I update an article please? Is it the same process as adding text and a citation?

Thanks! --Joegates2015 (talk) 15:27, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Joegates2015, 'updating' can mean either routine things like subscriber count on YouTubers, or actually updating articles with current information. The second is the same process as adding text and some citations. Usually you can find this kind of information in the news, although you must be careful about WP:NOTNEWS. Sungodtemple (talk) 16:07, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's great, thank you. Joegates2015 (talk) 08:40, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality

Is it a matter of Neutrality or truth? I live on this island, I have the accurate information as it happens. Why is it that my info is being removed and false information is being placed? Whyyyyy??? Is this website for truth or false information???

He was never trying to get to Cuba at anytime from Dominica, it is a impossible mission by little boat.This is beyond rediculous. United Democracy (talk) 12:18, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

United Democracy, this is a website for verifiability. We don't necessarily say the 'truth', we repeat what has already been said by reliable sources. Putting in the truth (without citations) counts as 'original research', or things that you probably know to be true but nobody can confirm that they are true. You are probably right, but unfortunately Wikipedia will only mimic what has already been reported. see WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS. If you find references it will be accepted into Wikipedia.
Also, I had concerns with your point of view. It would have been much better if you, instead of saying 'Kidnapped for the purpose of depriving him of rights guaranteed to him...' you could just say 'Kidnapped...', or 'Taken...'. Wikipedia is a hard-to-navigate place, and there are about 50 official policies in total. I've been in your position before. Please take the time to learn about Wikipedia's policies.

Question from Simangele Mgaga (17:41, 5 June 2021)

Hi I need help how do I edit perfectly plz help me --Lol (talk) 17:41, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Simangele Mgaga, no one can edit perfectly, but here are a few pages to check out Help:Introduction to the Manual of Style/1, WP:NPOV, and WP:NOT. There are tens of policies and guidelines, along with essays and discussion forums, so make sure to check each and every single one out. I would recommend going to the village pump and reading the discussion there, to get a better sense of what the 'important' policies are. Sungodtemple (talk) 18:17, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tife Bee, You have to upload them. Make sure they are not copyright violations and that they would actually be useful. Then you can use this syntax [[File:Example.svg|thumb|description|alt=example alt]] which produces the image seen at right. Sungodtemple (talk) 13:38, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question from OP8184 (12:04, 12 June 2021)

Hello! I'm an Australian student and just wanted to help out. Throughout my years of learning I have found many mistakes on Wikipedia, which I would like to remove from the general websites us students would visit regular. What would be a good start to helping out? --OP8184 (talk) 12:04, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OP8184, sorry for the late reply, but one way to help out (and how I started helping out!) is copy editing. Basically, it's fixing grammar, tone, and wording. On your homepage (accessed by clicking your username) you can find pages that need copy editing. Happy editing! Sungodtemple (talk) 11:44, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

May I know how to create a company website? --Hemanga Deka (talk) 20:10, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) The above user wrote a promotional userpage concerning his own company, which has since been speedy deleted as WP:U5. I have left notices about WP:PROMO, WP:COMPANY and WP:COI. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:27, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Kemanga Deka, Wikipedia is not a place to create a website. You will have to register the domain via a registrar, find a way to host the website, and actually write the markup language. Wikipedia, instead, is meant to give readers information that is actually useful and act like a conventional encyclopedia, but online.
If you are trying to create an encyclopedic, neutral article, I would recommend Help:Your first article as a place to start. And it will be near impossible to write a neutral article if you have a conflict of interest with the company in question. Above all, make sure the company is actually notable.

Content update of Bonodal

Hi Sungodtemple, how are you hope doing well. I just wanna asked you would you please help me to update my first articles. Thanks and regards Zayakg (talk) 10:46, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Zayakg, Draft:BONODAL has been deleted as an abandoned articles for creation submission. Please go to WP:REFUND/G13 to get the page back. I have no idea what the draft said, as it is deleted. Sungodtemple (talk) 16:43, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Sungodtemple, I hope you are doing great, by the way Draft:BONODAL article was removed by me myself. I need to practiced more wikipedia so that I can give my task accurate. Some of the experienced users like @Whpq, @Christian Ferrer without giving any suggestion or guidance they had deleted my photos. That is why I felt I will delete articles fore now practiced more and will be back with full many more articles. Guys if the user is new he or she they need guidance and motivated, and as we alll know wikipedia is for the world, its an organization. So my humble request to all pls give motivated to new user like us and please follow the guidances of wikipedia. Lets don't be the scientist of wikipedia. We need to give extra and unique articles to the world, we need support from you all not a discrimination, we need to work like a family. not like boss. thanks and regards. Zayakg (talk) 06:45, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Zayakg, the photos that were removed were likely copyright violations, which must be removed immediately. If this is something else, than please tell them on their individual talk pages, not mine. Sungodtemple (talk) 15:32, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Zayakg (06:55, 14 July 2021)

Question from Stephen Wan Burnett (16:35, 19 July 2021)

Hello, I want to write an article about an organization that is not on the English Wikipedia, although I found it in other sections, I would like to help Wikipedia by adding it, of course I would like to write it myself, and I have experience, I have read all possible articles on creating articles and tips, I would also like to learn a couple of tips from you , if you do not mind. --Stephen Wan Burnett (talk) 16:35, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Stephen Wan Burnett, go ahead and create a draft for the organization. Then the reviewers at AFC will determine if the article is of good enough quality and notability to be included in Wikipedia. Sungodtemple (talk) 17:23, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Cipher821 (05:49, 4 August 2021)

Hello, I'm new to Wikipedia editing, and would like to learn more. I would especially like to work with a team, where users can learn more from each other.

In the dashboard section, it mentioned courses with weekly goals, and a teacher. How do I join a course, or is it only available to some people? --Cipher821 (talk) 05:49, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Cipher821 and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'working with a team' but you may be referring to WP:WikiProjects, which is a group of people all interested in a certain topic. I don't know what you mean by 'courses with weekly goals' or 'teacher' though. Can you please clarify? Sungodtemple (talk) 14:56, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for taking the time to respond to me. The team project I mentioned probably is the WikiProjects, thanks for the link.
As for the "courses", I'm referring to is from dashboard.wikiedu.org. It says 'Looks like you haven't joined a course yet', and the option to 'Find your course'. Clicking the link sends me to a page of 'Active Campaigns', with the option to 'Join course'. The course options seems amazing; it has instructors, weekly milestones, assignments, peer review, and grading. I would very much like to join one.
However, it requires a passcode from the instructor to join.
Are these courses available for online application, or is it only available for students from its physical school? If available online, where can I apply? Cipher821 (talk) 01:35, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Cipher821 this is the Wikipedia Education program. It's meant for people in university courses and such to learn to edit Wikipedia as part of their coursework. I'm not too familiar with it though. You can ask at the teahouse or helpdesk (where more people can see it) and hopefully get a better response. Sungodtemple (talk) 14:13, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help! I will check there. Cipher821 (talk) 14:49, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
