Please post new messages at the bottom of my talk page. Please use headlines when starting new talk topics. Thank you.
If you're here because you've suddenly got a lot of talk page messages from my bot, Yapperbot, sorry for the trouble! The bot was catching up to all the RfCs which are still open at the moment. As the first run of all the backlogged RfCs is now complete, from now on, you'll receive a lower volume of messages. It's still respecting your preferences, so you'll never get more messages than you've set at WP:FRS. |
This is Naypta's talk page, where you can send him messages and comments. |
|
Please stay calm and civil while commenting or presenting evidence, and do not make personal attacks. Be patient when approaching solutions to any issues. If consensus is not reached, other solutions exist to draw attention and ensure that more editors mediate or comment on the dispute. |

A barnstar for you!
The Barnstar of Diplomacy | ||
For boldly ignoring all rules in a contentious debate on AfD and closing it per WP:AVALANCHE even if it may not have fit the letter of the law. Putting yourself at risk of incivility/WP:POINTyness by editors angry at a contentious close, especially an early one, and especially as a non-admin, is worth recognizing and commending when it happens. Thank you! Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 18:03, 11 June 2020 (UTC) |
- @Psiĥedelisto: Sentiment appreciated, thank you! I'm not sure I'd describe it as all that contentious - indeed, there seemed to be pretty broad agreement - and NACs for WP:SNOW closures aren't disallowed by any policy I'm aware of in the first instance, but nonetheless Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 18:10, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Naypta: It wasn't all that contentious among experienced editors, especially not after the Trump tweets, but it was still brave to risk the wrath of the WP:CANVASSers! Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 18:16, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
You inspired me to do a non-admin closure of my own: 8 minutes and 46 seconds. My first Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 06:37, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
Neutral point of view?
To Whom it may concern,
I recently edited the page "Hardcore Hip Hop" and my changes were reverted. I noticed that in your response to another author's realization of their changes being reverted, you said "Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view." This is the reason why I made the edit, as the article as presented was not neutral. Please provide evidence that the content of the article prior to my edits was neutral, otherwise you have no grounds for refusing my edit. Additionally, please produce proof of your expertise in music genres, otherwise you have no grounds for refuting my expertise.
Sincerely, Hip Hop Expert — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:5b80:1bc0:38b8:3d7f:d405:4afa (talk) 12:25, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @2600:1700:5b80:1bc0:38b8:3d7f:d405:4afa: Hello. You removed a significant amount of content from the article with no explanation as to why, changing its meaning substantially with no reliable sources. YouTube is not a reliable source, and for changes of the magnitude of the one you were trying to make, you should seek consensus on the talk page before making them again. Thank you! Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 11:29, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @2600:1700:5b80:1bc0:38b8:3d7f:d405:4afa: Consider that you, nor anyone else that would engage with me on the "talk page," is exposed enough socially to understand such matters. Additionally, consider yourself a protector of petrified opinion. | 11:29, 13 June 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:5b80:1bc0:38b8:3d7f:d405:4afa (talk) 13:17, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @2600:1700:5b80:1bc0:38b8:3d7f:d405:4afa: You're entitled to be of that opinion, although I'd appreciate a bit more civility in the way you express it. If you have any further questions pertinent to editing Wikipedia in a way that's compliant with our policies, I'm happy to help you out! Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 12:25, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi Naypta. What was wrong with my edit? I thought it made perfect sense. --Colony! Colony! Colony! (talk) 11:41, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Colony! Colony! Colony!: Hello, I left a message on your talk page explaining what was wrong. Your edits were not written from a neutral point of view, the standard we adhere to on Wikipedia. Thank you, Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 11:46, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
Biography
Sir - Concerning BILL OSTER - Was wondering why you rejected all which was properly / correctly / accurately entered Friday which was all 100 % true yet you now show exactly same but have not allowed the corrections as entered, such as name of grandson with name of ' ted ' which s/b ' Ted ' - ??? - Will not correct anything on this entry ever again although you all need to smarten up in this regard - Therefore, an explanation would be appreciated unless you choose to do as most others have when questioned and just disappear - By the way, just so you are aware as so many of you Wikipedia so-called ' editors ' appear to know nothing about baseball or sorts in general, I personally knew this gentleman and from the last entry the other day with corrections to HECTOR TORRES, as well, who played with the Toronto Blue Jays when I was involved with that team - You people need to be a little smarter in these things as some people do know a little more than most of you appear to - Thank you very much - 69.158.86.174 (talk) 11:43, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @69.158.86.174: Hello, myself and other users have explained to you what was wrong on your talk page. Wikipedia requires all information to have a reliable source attached, especially when it's about a living or recently deceased person. Claiming that someone has died without a source asserting it to be true isn't allowed. If you can find a reliable source to assert that claim, that's fine, you can readd your edit with that source cited. You may personally know him, but I'm afraid your personal experience isn't a sufficiently encyclopedic or verifiable reference. Thanks, Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 11:46, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
stop fiddling
You have been trouted for: YOUR REASON HERE 27.32.179.175 (talk) 21:23, 13 June 2020 (UTC) Every time I edit, you undo it! Most frustrating, please stop! :(
- @27.32.179.175: Hello, additions to Wikipedia are required to be verifiable in reliable sources. Your additions looked to me like promotion without a reliable source, so I removed them. If there is coverage supporting your edits in independent, reliable sources, please cite these sources in your edits. Thank you! Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 21:26, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
BILL OSTER - CONTINUED -
Sir - As it stands your very poor response is way beyond totally unacceptable - You cannot supply a reference / source if there is nothing known to that point other than a person has died, has been acknowledged to have died, so then the information is entered with the hope some reference / source will then follow shortly afterward or within a number of days, which it usually has when others chime in but the people who did entered no reference either ( ??? ) - You ' editing ' people have really screwed up Wikipedia in more recent years since 2005 as back when it all started things could be entered very smoothly / easily without jumping through all of these waste of time and beyond unnecessary hoops - For the most part people do not know where to go for a reference / source in most instances yet have something which they feel needs to be entered / should be entered and ASAP - However, once again you unknowing types have made it much too tough to accomplish even the basic minimal - Lastly, how can you, being in England, even know anything about baseball at all ( ??? ), as most of you cannot even report cricket properly, having played for Canada Juniors over 50 years ago and faced some of the top cricket players of the 1960s at that time, to be able to tell people what to say / not say ( ??? ) - Please do think about some of this then try to smarten up just a little as there are people out here who know a great deal more on topics you all do not and never will - As you might expect at this point, Mr. Oster's family are not at all pleased !!! - Lastly, there is no need for any of you ' editors ' to ever enter any kind of waste of time responses as it will not be appreciated at this point. Thank You.69.158.86.174 (talk) 02:29, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
- Hello again. Please consult Wikipedia's policy on civility. If you're willing to be civil and to have a discussion, I'm happy to help you; otherwise, I'm not. Thank you. Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 08:09, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Did anything happen with the captions
Hi, I noticed that Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_180#Proposal:_Allow_wikilinks_and_other_wikimarkup_from_tooltip_text_to_be_displayed_on_WP_image_pages has been archived.

Notices for expired discussions
Aside from the duplicates thing you revert, the bot is also leaving FRS input/participation requests for discussion that are long-since closed, e.g. [1]. This is the only one I've seen, but it's 12 days past the date when it should have gone out. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 14:10, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
- @SMcCandlish: That's for a brand new GA nomination, not for the DYK. There are no FRS notifications for DYKs, so that's working as intended. Sorry for the duplicate issue, though - debugging that at the moment, the bot is paused until it's fixed Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 14:12, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Yapperbot
Is the bot working off a backlog because it is taking over the duties of an earlier bot who died in action or was captured? Robert McClenon (talk) 20:38, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: It was - although the previous bot didn't so much die as was incapacitated for the purposes of this task The first run finished this morning, so now it should respond on time with new RfCs and GA noms. Legobot used to run the FRS, but it hadn't been sending notifications for many months, and its botop hadn't been responding to messages about it, so I stepped in to run it instead.

Yapperbot edit summary when posting RfCs on talk pages
Good morning, may I put a suggestion over to you, maybe to refine the length of the bot's edit summary? IMO its a bit too long. On many older PCs with a lower resolution the length of the summary can fill up two or three lines of text. Thanks. Nightfury 07:14, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Nightfury: Hi, thanks for the feedback! I can definitely look into shortening it - would something like
FRS notification for "Category Name", which you opted into. You can unsubscribe at WP:FRS
be better? Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 08:24, 17 June 2020 (UTC)- Yes, that is better. Thanks Nightfury 09:15, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Nightfury: Done - updated to
Feedback Request Service notification on a "Category Name" request type (n/n this month). You can unsubscribe at WP:FRS.
, which would result in (for example)Feedback Request Service notification on a "Social sciences and society" Good Article nomination (4/5 this month). You can unsubscribe at WP:FRS.

Yapperbot duplication
Thanx for starting up a new FeedbackRequestService bot. I have a bug/improvement to report: I received the same RFC three times in a row.[2] Not a big deal, but I suggest checking to prevent duplicates. I also suggest running the "All RFCs" group last so it can't deplete a list for a category-specific selection later. Alsee (talk) 08:22, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Changing definition of Prejudice
I sincerely feel that we need to make a distinction between prejudice and racism in our society. A lot of things have happened over the past few week that have directed my attention to how we view race in society. People like me who are of Asian descent; we normally experience prejudice. Sometimes a few people will say a few nasty things to us, but overall we are living in a somewhat equal society. I do not think this is the case for black people in the United States,and we have to acknowledge this in how we refer ot racism. I cannot edit the racism page, but I can edit the prejudice page.I now have a source, to back up my claim. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dgreene.gatech (talk • contribs) 19:50, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Dgreene.gatech: Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your efforts to improve the encyclopedia. As I have mentioned on your talk page, it is important that all additions and changes to the encyclopedia are accompanied with reliable sources that support the claims being made. If you have appropriate sources supporting the claim you are making, you can reinstate it; however, it may not be appropriate for the lead of the article, which should be a concise summary of the entire topic. It may fit better in another section. If you would like, you can discuss this with more experienced editors to the article on the article's talk page. Thank you!

Hello Naypta,
- Your help can make a difference
NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.
- Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate
In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

- A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
- Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.

Thank you for creating Eastern Army (Spain).

Thanks for this article! Based upon the english book I checked, you might want to add a mention of this page to People's Army of Catalonia as it seems that the PAC was somewhat merged into this army...

- Thank you very much, History DMZ, I greatly appreciate it!

- No worries Naypta. And I'll share a bit of humor, when I saw 35 new messages I was debating with myself whether this was Sinebot's (auto-sign) or Sigmabot's (auto-archive) doing, but the honors went to Yapperbot of course lol.
