Note: Please check the above template for what time it is in my location before sending a message as I may be asleep.
Note 2: When it is April fool's day, DO NOT TROUT ME as an April Fool's joke. In the past I had a trout button which I removed due to persistent abuse of it. If you trout me on April Fool's Day I will revert you and ask that you do not do it again.
Note 3: Any comments here regarding a vandal or from a blocked user that I was WP:AGF will be archived once i ensure there is nothing left to say per WP:DENY.
Note 4: If I remove your comment and you add it back, I will revert you and warn you for doing so. If you do it again after that then I will report you for harassment. This crap has gone on for way too long and I've become less and less tolerant of it. Removing comments from my own talk page is perfectly allowable per WP:OWNTALK.
Considering retirement
This section is pinned and will not be automatically archived. |
Hello all. I'm sure some of you will have noticed that I have placed {{considering retirement}} on my talk page. I have my reasons for this, tho it is nothing that necessarily involves me. Technically it involves everyone editing or viewing Wikipedia. Due to some circumstances regarding the higher-higher-ups (as in beyond admins) I'm not sure if I want to remain an editor on Wikipedia. If I have known you on Wikipedia for a while and you really wish to know more details then let me know here and I will send you an email with the details. I do not wish the details to be shared publicly here on Wikipedia or on the Wikipedia Discord server, or anywhere else involving Wikipedia and the WMF (excluding other Wiki's running on the mediawiki software that are otherwise not associated with the WMF). As the template says, nothing is set in stone at the moment, though it is something I am considering. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:15, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
Update January 6, 2023: Retirement is still something I am considering, however it's more just a thought in the back of my mind that comes up every once in a while. There's not really a template for that so the considering retirement template will stay unless a more appropriate one can be found, as will this section. My thoughts have not changed much, however it's no longer something that's at the forefront of my mind. Maybe I simply just needed a vacation, away from Wikipedia (and most of the internet in general, tho I was still using the internet for things like YouTube and online features in games) which resulted in this update. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:44, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
- That seems a shame. As long as you have been enjoying editing here and as log as you have been abiding by the rules I see no reason for you to allow other people to control your behaviour. Since I have not seen any divergence from the rules it must be that you are not quite enjoying yourself. By all means take a wiki break. I took one for several years. It was meant to be for a few months but I had burned out and lost the fun. For me, the fun is back. I hope it returns for you, too.
- I feel a sense of loss, since we have just met, but your staying because I ask would be your allowing me to control you. So stay, for as long as you want, and return when you want if you leave. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 17:39, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- I would love for other people to not control my behavior, however I don't really have a choice. If you'd like I will email you more details as said are not something I want public here on Wikipedia. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:41, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- If you wish to send it I will read it. It is very rare that I respond by email. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 17:56, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- I understand the points you make in your email. I know others have felt those things before. What they have found is that it generally all comes good in the end.
- Out of deference to you and in accordance with the rules, I may not reveal, even by my answers, any of the actual points in your email 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 18:19, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you. I may choose to reveal them in the future. But for now they remain private via email. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:20, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- If I have any advice for you, it is to choose to ignore the things you emailed me about, simply because nor you nor I can affect them. If building the encyclopaedia is enough fun then the rest of whatever it is you sent me can safely be ignored. This is why I concentrate on building the encyclopaedia by reviewing by writing, be improving, by offering article for deletion, etc etc. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 23:40, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- That's not something that's easy to do considering how much it can affect me. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 23:43, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- I hope you can stay Blaze Wolf. You were the one of the first editors I interacted with at the Teahouse, and you gave me a lift when I was a struggling newbie who didn't even know how to upload an image. If you would like to talk about something, feel free to email or DM me on Discord ‡ The Night Watch ω (talk) 01:12, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi Blaze Wolf! I saw the considering retirement above, and though I would understand, I hope you get to a place where you can choose to stay. You're a valuable editor on this project and you've been a big help to me, as well as others! Like I said, I would totally understand, but I sincerely hope to see you stay.

- I know that retirement may seem like a bad thing, Blaze Wolf, but it may mean a chance to look back at history. Speaking of, the Reverie Battles (that were archived in the Legends: Arceus wiki) were part of the Daybreak update, so I had to include them. - (12546a) 11:13, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
Regarding the final trailer announcement...
Hello, Blaze, uhhh I've noticed admins or really experienced Wikipedians (like you) are erasing The Super Mario Bros. Movie's final trailer announcement, and I would know why are the reasons (I even placed a reference with a reliable source) although it's practically ok for me that you delete that info, I just wanna know the whys of it. Or maybe I'm just a moron editor idk lol SupraMerioBros. (talk) 00:42, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- I told you in the edit summary. MOS:FILMTRAILER. We aren't a press release so we don't need to cover every single little detail. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:55, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oh alright, thanks. Moron editor here confirmed :,) SupraMerioBros. (talk) 01:56, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
Mario Movie
Seriously, this is the second time someone's removed my edit. It's a part of marketing damn it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jac Clow (talk • contribs) 17:36, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
- How about you actually read MOS:FILMTRAILER before complaining. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:38, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
Sources
Hi. You recently declined me at Draft:Hypixel_Skyblock. Although I did decide to follow your advice and merge a fraction of the content from my draft into the Hypixel articles. I have a few questions that might help with future submissions. You said "None of the cited sources are reliable (Either a blog, associated with the subject, or usergenerated).". I'm not entirely sure what counts as a reliable source? Blogs are really the only place I could find any form of source off hypixel.net as that is the location for forums and where the developers post news, so nearly any content associated with the game goes there or to YouTube. Also, what could I be using for sources if it can't be associated with the subject, or user generated? And is there something inherently wrong with blogs? I saw them as just an independent medium of self publishing.
I do understand that a single person's blog post isn't really reputable, nor a tweet, but I just don't see how else I can get reliable info as something like Skyblock is notable, it's just housed inside of Hypixel where it isn't covered much except in exclusively places where I might avoid taking citations from. Overall, do you have tips of where I should get my citations from, what I should avoid doing in the future? It's all a little confusing as this is my first time writing and submitting an article. --Spacebyte (talk) 21:27, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
Do not engage in edit war with vandals
Hello, I have seen your contributions on List of wars involving Kazakhstan, thanks for your reverts. However, engaging in edit war with a vandal or a likely troll is a little bit waste of time, next time, if they are continuedly doing disruptive edit, just report them is better.
Happy editing. -Lemonaka 00:46, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
- I'm sorry what? I can't just let vandalism sit there. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:47, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

American English ping
Discussion moved from Talk:American English:
- Why exactly was I pinged? ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:04, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Wolfdog: Pinging, cause I don't see why I was pinged. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:08, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, I pinged you because you're a frequent editor at American English. Wolfdog (talk) 14:44, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- @Wolfdog: Oh. I'm not exactly doing much other than reverting disruptive edits. I don't know or understand IPA so I wouldn't be of much help. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:46, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oh, OK. Sorry -- just pinging frequent editors. No worries then. Wolfdog (talk) 14:49, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Splatoon 3
The article Splatoon 3 you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Splatoon 3 for comments about the article, and Talk:Splatoon 3/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

- 👏👏👏 Congratulations on your GA! And I believe it's your first! Tails Wx 17:49, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

- Thank you S0091! I figured this would be a good article for my first GA since I created it (I know it doesn't show that, however if you see what non-talk pages I've created, you'll see Draft:Splatoon 3) and it's one of my favorite games to play. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:33, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
