== Redirecting 'Sussymoguses' to [[Chaenactis]] ==

Hi, I see that you redirected [[Sussymoguses]] to [[Chaenactis]]. Unfortunately, the Chaenactis page was vandalized at the time, and 'Sussymoguses' is not a synonym for Chaenactis. I've gone ahead and tagged the redirect for speedy deletion. [[User:Sunmist|Sunmist]] ([[User talk:Sunmist|talk]]) 17:46, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Church of San Francisco, Bogotá, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Presbytery. 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:07, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

March 2023

Information icon Hello, I'm AgisdeSparte. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Christianity and transgender people—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. AgisdeSparte (talk) 16:51, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history 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; read about 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. PhilKnight (talk) 17:26, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I made two consecutive edits to a page. They disagree with the second one. They keep rolling back both of them. If you can explain to them how to only roll back the second edit, I would be thrilled. Moriwen (talk) 17:31, 13 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ABP

I added the following today to the talk page of the "Association of Business Psychologists" article:

This article, which was initiated by me, is currently the subject of a deletion proposal [by Moriwen], of which I received notice today. I believe that the deletion proposal is misconceived, and that the organisation is in fact more significant than its proposer suggests – an example of evidence of this would be the fact that over a dozen university degree courses in the United Kingdom are accredited by the ABP. However, I currently no longer have a close familiarity with the organisation, so I am consulting those who do to establish the best way forward. I should be grateful if no further action were taken on the deletion proposal until that consultation is complete. Deipnosophista (talk) 11:19, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Moriwen, please do not delete the page Association of Business Psychologists, it is a valuable organisation that has been undergoing some changes. I am on the Board and will be updating the Wiki page over the coming week or two with lots more information, including citations. Please could you remove the plans to delete it? Also, do you know how I can change the display title to Association for Business Psychology? many thanks! BizPsychologist (talk) 13:03, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Pages needing translation

Thanks for looking out for Pages needing translation, but did you know that these are strictly for pages which have a corresponding article on another language Wikipedia? Such pages are connected through Wikidata, and you can see evidence of that in the languages section in the left sidebar. The Charles Delacommune article has no equivalent in French Wikipedia, so doesn't need listing at WP:PNT. The article Chup Tazia doesn't need translation from Arabic, because there is no Arabic version of it. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 09:57, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies! Thank you for explaining. — Moriwen (talk) 18:32, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No worries. By all means add listings to WP:PNT when you find an English article that has been translated from a foreign-language Wikipedia, and needs attention; that always helps. Happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 06:21, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

Hi Moriwen, When you create a redirect, please check that the term actually exists on the targeted page. Redirecting to a synonym is a legitimate use for redirects, but not all readers will recognise the specific term for which the redirect is a synonym if it is not mentioned on the target page. If it is not mentioned, please add it in a logical place, ideally with a suitable reference. If you normally do this but sometimes forget or have not got around to it yet, no problem. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 08:11, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It also makes a redirect more useful if you target a section if that is where the redirected term is discussed, and if you would add any relevant tags, such as {{R to section}} or {{R to alternative scientific name}}, that helps a lot with curatorial work, and the redirect is more likely to be tagged as patrolled. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 08:28, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also check that the target article actually provides the reader with useful information about the redirected term. The mere fact that it is used in the target is no guarantee that the redirect will be helpful to the reader. In articles where a term is used without explanation of its meaning, the term would more appropriately be wikilinked, which should not link back to the same page. In some cases it may be more useful to redirect to a technical glossary, and add the term with a suitable definition. Bear in mind that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Redirects that are not useful are likely to be deleted. · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 09:44, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clearer?

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand why you think it is clearer to delete the rationale explained by the IOC, and just leave the bear fact that Fencer was given an automatic qualification. As you perhaps know, an automatic qualification is never given. This would seem to call for explanatory, phraseology, along the lines of what you choose to delete. I’m perplexed. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:4955:77CA:E34F:C24A (talk) 04:54, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did leave a clear explanation of the edit removing the phrase "against conventional wisdom" which is a baseless unsupported assertion which has no place on wikipedia. Whose says it was against convention wisdom? Where is any citation? Who defines what is accepted "conventional wisdom"? What is the criteria? Wikipedia is not meant to be an opinion piece. I cannot see why my explanation was inadequate and why you would revert that change. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.53.33.99 (talk) 19:23, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The section you deleted included several citations supporting it. — Moriwen (talk) 19:24, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"No ethnographic studies have shown that any present or past society has used barter without any other medium of exchange or measurement, and anthropologists have found no evidence that money emerged from barter."

That is a completely unsupported assertion. It is a politicised opinion ("the barter myth") stating a negative as a fact. Can't prove a negative, that is a logical fallacy. Statements like that shouldn't be in wiki articles — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.53.33.99 (talk) 19:28, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alt-tech

Hi, you reverted my change to the description of alt-tech as "Internet platforms that cater to extremists" to describe them simply as alternatives to mainstream offerings. You did this because Wikipedia is supposed to maintain a neutral point of view. To quote the linked article, "Alt-tech are social media platforms and Internet service providers that have become popular among the alt-right, far-right, and others who espouse extremism or fringe theories, often because they employ less stringent content moderation than mainstream platforms." I think it is sufficiently neutral to describe alt-tech as I have done. These platforms specifically exist to create a space for extremists where they can, for example, freely discuss acts of terrorism without fear of censorship. Please read the alt-tech article for more information, and see the referenced journal article describing how terrorists used Telegram to coordinate the January 6th attack. Thanks, and have a great day! 68.50.184.108 (talk) 16:57, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of Founding Father - S. Korea.

Hi. I tried to find out the source of the previous document, which was Syngman rhee is the founding father of S. Korea, but officially the government of S. Korea nor National Assembly of Korea have never officialized the founding father. The constiution of Korea stipulates that the 6th republic upholds the democratic idea of April 19th revolution in 1960, in which people resisted against the government of Syngman Rhee and finally made him resigned. Some rightist media argues that he was the founding father of S.Korea, but also numerous newspapers are against it, which shows that there is no official founding father of S.Korea. That's why I edited the documemt and wrote Dangun, the legendary father of Korean race as the founding father of S. Korea. And S.Korea have national day on which Koreans celebrate his legendary birthday and his founding of Ancient Korea. Here are the resources. https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_Republic_of_Korea_(1987) - The constitution of 6th republic of Korea https://m.hankookilbo.com/News/Read/A2023033109560002703 - News article from HanKookIlbo. It desctibes the controversy on officializing founding father of Korea, which shows there is no founding father in S.Korea yet. https://www.seoul.co.kr/news/newsView.php?id=20190514027002 - Column from Seoul Shinmun, which opposes the idea of saying Syngman Rhee as the founding father. 221.161.0.129 (talk) 17:49, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese Dragons

a comment

Hi, you asked me to say something on your talk page if I thought there was something wrong, so I just came in this to apologise for the editing stuff that has just been happening, my younger brother has just been using my device and somehow he decided it would be a good idea to change some text on different pages with his friend. I am so so sorry for any trouble he has caused, and I will make sure he does not edit Wikipedia again in unsuitable ways. Thank you, and I would appreciate it if it my warnings were removed, as he did not mean to cause any harm and I went back and tried to unedit what he had done afterwards, and I sometimes do edit in here and Iwould not like to lose the ability to edit on Wikipedia because of him messing around. Once again, I am so sorry if he cause too much trouble and I would really be thankful if you could delete those warnings in any way. Thankyou. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.144.218.22 (talk) 18:32, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clara Khoury ethnicity

Hi, I added the descriptor Palestinian-Israeli to Clara Khoury's article, and you let me know I need to source that. There are sources that her father is Palestinian on his Wikipedia page, so I just thought the same way there isn't a source on the fact that she is Israeli, it only makes sense. You can assume she is Israeli from her birthplace, and that she is Palestinian from her father. 24.150.94.176 (talk) 18:21, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your work, but I'd like to point out that there are inaccuracies on the page regarding the very 1st SUFC ladies team. Unfortunately, the players who were part of that initial team are not acknowledged, which I believe is unjust. I was personally a member of that team, and while I understand that evidence from that time is limited due to the absence of the internet, I do have images that were previously featured on the SUFC page, but have since been removed. Collaborating with fellow players, we're striving to ensure that our contribution to the team's history is recognized, along with the efforts of our coaches, Gary Hindley and Mel Woodall. It's essential that the write-up accurately reflects the facts. I apologize if this comes across as critical, but the historical accuracy is crucial, as the current version undermines our accomplishments. I possess a team photograph that was included in a program, as well as some old individual photos. We're dedicated to being an integral part of the history of ladies' football at SUFC." we combined as ladies numbers where low with sheffield hallam united. We are the 1st team for SUFC and yet nothing is mentioned other than folded! — Preceding unsigned comment added by C33fit14 (talkcontribs) 13:12, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That makes a lot of sense as a frustration! If the photographs are ones you took yourself, you might consider scanning them and uploading them to Wikimedia Commons; they could be a valuable addition to the article. — Moriwen (talk) 13:26, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lady Glenorchy

You have reverted a number of my edits which I can assure you were made in good faith and after a great deal of time in researching the existing entry and what was required to correct and improve it. That entry was full of misunderstandings and errors. Far from merely removing content, I have corrected it and added new content, links and sources. Here are my edit summaries.

See History - original text was for 1770 chapel. Confused with Lady Glenorchy's Chapel started in 1772 and opened in 1774.

There was only one chapel or church built. Building started in 1772, completed 1774, hence confusion. (See History because at some time an editor has confused reference to an 1870 chapel with an 1872 chapel which, in turn, made the editor think that, as well as the 1872 chapel, there was an 1874 chapel. I corrected all that!}

The name Horatius does not appear in history of Lady Glenorchy. Source is useless. ("Horatius" does not appear in the original source, which is so general it is useless, nor in the History of Lady Glenorchy.)

Location of Edinburgh home (I added where her home was, also link)

Lady Glenorchy for consistency (Text suddenly started calling her "Campbell" so.....)

Low Calton was the 1772/4 church (Editor confused the old church at Low Calton with new church at Greenside)

Source for mother (Citation wanted so citation provided)

Typo (Corrected typo)

Further explanation (Extra information given in article)

New information (Added new informtion - see text if you want to know what it is)

Removed advert for Amazon (Online link for book was directly to Amazon sales)

In my view these edit summaries are entirely adequate being as good as most of the edit summaries I see in Wikipedia - why am I having to give extra and unnecessary explanation? Consideration of these summaries together with proper consideration of what was actually written in comparison with the text before my edits will show that your reversion was precipitate and improper. After all my effort in correcting and improving the article, at a stroke and, as far as I can see, with proper consideration, you have destroyed it. I seriously wonder if it is worthwhile contributing to Wikipedia when this can happen. I shall be obliged if you will now revert back.82.28.236.130 (talk) 15:22, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
