A belated welcome!

The welcome may be belated, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, CatCafe. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

• Introduction
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• How to write a great article

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{help me}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

File:Sabontu Belle Gibson 2020.png

Hi! I've deleted this file. You wrote "- It is cc-by-sa-4.0 as: - Author has marked it as "Licence Creative Commons Attribution licence (reuse allowed)" at source https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDD2x9xvscw 2 - Additionally it is also 'fair use' ...", but neither of those statements is correct. As you can see in the Ethiopian video, it uses clips of Australian footage; the image was taken from here (identifiable in the Ethiopian vid), and that page is clearly marked "© 2020 ABC". There's no possibility of fair use for portraits of living people because they automatically fail WP:NFCCP#1: "No free equivalent. Non-free content is used only where no free equivalent is available, or could be created, that would serve the same encyclopedic purpose" – there's nothing to stop somebody going and taking a new, free photo of someone who's still alive. Sorry for the long explanation, (talk) 22:58, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

No, I appreciate the detailed explanation Justlettersandnumbers. Much better than a delete and no-explain. Gives me something to ponder and troubleshoot next time I'm seeking an image. Thanks CatCafe (talk) 23:04, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

Copyright

Hi CatCafe! Sorry to do this to you, but we have two problems with the clipping. The first is that Trove does not override the copyright held by the owners of content in their collections - under their terms of use, they expect us as re-users to confirm that we have permission to reuse content. The second is that Wikipedia can only accept some CC licenses, and cannot accept CC-by-NC: Wikipedia can only accept images which are allowed for commercial reuse. - Bilby (talk) 09:13, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

Bilby Please stop stalking other editors on and off wp. You have been warned about this before. Previously I specifically asked you not to communicate with me as a courtesy (as some find your editing and tracking behaviour threatening) and I am disapointed you have ignored that. I am also additionally concerned of your on wp actions which endeavour to out other editors as per your post on Talk:Thomas John Flanagan page and I request that you desist and do not engage further.

List of unproven methods against COVID-19

Re "I think we're all quite aware that page content is based on bullsh!t", , you're quite right. WP:MEDRS says we actually need medrs citations to say that the treatments are ineffective, unproven, etc., and the template is flagging the need for such citations, though I can see why the template might be misinterpreted. Such citing is suprisingly doable, as assorted public health authorities have been putting out an endless stream of warnings against unproven treatments. On a technical note, the {{More medical citations needed}} tag flags the whole article as needing more MEDRS cites throughout, while {{medrs}} is an inline tag for tagging the need for a citation at a particular place, for a particular fact.

Thank you very much for paying attention to this page, it really needs it. It is not even faintly keeping up with the rumourmill. HLHJ (talk) 20:06, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

Looking for some support

Hi, Greetings,I was looking for some support in following areas.

• Please do have a look at upcoming articles Draft:Ex-Muslims along with Draft talk:Ex-Muslims and also Superstitions in Muslim societies.

If any of above topics interest you, then pl. do contribute towards expansion of the same. Specially looking for Yasmine Mohammed point of views with refs available, if any. Thanks and warm regards Bookku (talk) 11:25, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Yes cheers, will have a look when time permits. Also noted you pinged user:Alhill42 , that's good, as she knows more about Yasmine Mohammed than I do. Thanks for your message. CatCafe (talk) 11:47, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Lot of thanks, would be keenly waiting for your support to the article. Warm regards. Bookku (talk) 12:27, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

Hey, Bookku I 'was' happy to help you with the article but I got reprimanded twice for various things on the page, including suggesting others were being disruptive there. Didn't realise that calling one out for being disruptive was as insulting as using four-letter-words, that's a learning experience for me. Anyway any edits I do make there will be minor such as tweaking reference formats etc, avoiding content edits. All the best, CatCafe (talk) 01:16, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi CatCafe, thanks for going back over the page. See you reverted some of the text re Restaurateur/chef and I don't have a problem with that but I just want to point out that the first and second references don't exist. The 5th reference doesn't mention him. So I was going to remove the unsourced text but first wanted to run it by you. Also, lovely to meet you! MaskedSinger (talk) 14:24, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

MaskedSinger Yes sure, cheers. I retrieved the archive of the 2nd one, removed the 5th and the text relating to the 5th. With regards to the first, I trust it exists and was in the inflight magazine, but not on the web. CatCafe (talk) 14:31, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Ok great. Glad I first ran it by you! MaskedSinger (talk) 14:37, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for reverting your recent experiment with the page Jessica Yaniv. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment further, please use your sandbox instead, as someone could see your edit before you revert it. Thank you. Opalzukor (talk) 08:33, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. CatCafe (talk) 08:34, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Targeting unrelated editors in edit summaries

Hi CatCafe, I gave you a truthful explanation of the reason behind that edit summary. Honestly, it shouldn't matter, as you should not be editing my comments over my objections (WP:TPO). If you'd like to talk it through more, I'd be happy to do so, but please do stop moving my comments. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 01:37, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

Firefangledfeathers, Then I suggest you stop making such errors in your edit summaries and thus targeting others with your criticism. Your manner of dropping other unrelated editors names in your edit summaries is unwelcome and may be seen as WP:HARASSMENT. CatCafe (talk) 02:37, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

If you know that Wisefroggy feels harassed, I would definitely apologize to them. Do you think I should do so preemptively? I will try to stop making errors. Has it become a "manner", in the sense that I've done it more than once? Firefangledfeathers (talk) 02:49, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

Images of Australian politicians

Hi, I've just reverted your re-insertion of images of three Australian politicians. The admin at commons messed up, probably as I wasn't clear enough in the speedy deletion nominations. These are images which cannot possibly have been created by members of the public, and appear to have been taken from the official parliamentary broadcast or news reports. The Kimberley Kitching image even included the labelling for politicians the official parliamentary broadcast uses. The images are obviously not the property of some random YouTube channel. I have re-nominated them for deletion on Commons. Regards, Nick-D (talk) 01:41, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

OK Nick-D, I will trust that you sort that issue out via Commons. CatCafe (talk) 02:33, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Amanda Stoker shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. — Bilorv (talk) 15:03, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31h for WP:3RR. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  User:Ymblanter (talk) 16:13, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

ANI discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is 50-edit edit war at Amanda Stoker. Thank you. — Bilorv (talk) 07:29, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I know you're a newbie with only a few weeks editing experience, but you need to discuss your issues on the talk page. Brodiebrock (talk) 01:52, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
