It is easiest to use the "Add topic" link at the top of a talk page and "[ reply ]" link following each post but you may edit this page directly if you follow the above-mentioned guidelines.
If you choose to edit the page directly, please observe the following in addition to anything else in the above-mentioned guidelines:
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.
Regarding replies and notifications:
I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or use the "[ subscribe ]" link by each thread heading,or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.
If I left you a message; please answer on the page where the message was left, using {{ping|Username}}, {{reply to|Username}} or {{u|Username}} in your response, or add {{talkback|Username}} or {{whisperback|Username}} to my talk page. If you leave me a message here, I will answer here on my talk page, notifying you in the same manner.

So now that I've exposed your bizarre accusations as mere conspiratorial delusions pushed by far right admins, I would like you to either address line by line what was wrong with what I edited. We have passed the name calling phase and now you people need to answer for the censorship of factual information that you are grouping up to enforce. I included fact check links to national recognized news sources, links to press releases by the person themselves, and every quote was linked to and attributed to someone at the link. The things I added were the most important and consequential actions that person took in their career. Just because some far right extremist admin thinks it makes his right wing politician looks bad doesn't mean it needs deleted. That's in the Terems of Use. Just because factual information may be divisive, if it is factual and sourced property with the appropriate tags, which mine was, then the deletion of it is considered vandalism. You jumping over talk page and writing what you did is harassment. After scrolling through drmies history, it is extremely clear that he is a right wing troll that has been shielding extreme right wing figures and politicians from having factual information about them on their wiki's. Thanks for participating in about a half dozen violations of the Terms of Use. FactZheker (talk) 16:38, 15 January 2021 (UTC)FactZheker[reply]
Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 19
News and updates associated with user scripts from the past month (December 2020).
Hello everyone and welcome to the 19th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:
Enterprisey's copy-section-link adds popups to section headers which has an appropriate wikilink and external link to the section.
DannyS712's FindBlacklistEntry can be used to figure out which line(s) in either the local or global spamblacklist prevent a particular url from being added.
The Watchlist Expiry feature worked on by the Community Tech team has been enabled on Wikipedia. For scripts that include watching or unwatching pages, developers may want to update their code to take advantage of the new functionality. See the documentation on mediawiki.org.
As noted in the prior issue, Enterprisey's links-in-logs script has now been implemented as part of MediaWiki core. By my count, this is his third script that was replaced by implementing the code in MediaWiki core or an extension, along with link-section-edits and abusefilter-hide-search. Additionally, his reply-link script is being converted in part to mw:Extension:DiscussionTools. Are there any other scripts that might be worth integrating directly in MediaWiki? Thoughts would be welcome at Wikipedia talk:Scripts++.
Hi Sam Sailor, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a very happy and healthy New Year, Thank you for all your contributions to Wikipedia, –Davey2010Talk20:06, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
