ANI discussion involving you

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:Timfoley50 and the explorer Tom Crean. Thank you. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:32, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BrownHairedGirl Hello and thanks for the notification. I clicked on the link, but I couldn't find the discussion... are you sure the link is correct? It couldn't have been archived already I wouldn't think, but I'll check there too just in case. tthanks! Spintendo  00:45, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@BrownHairedGirl never mind, I found it... The app wasn't linking to it for some reason on my phone. but anyways thanks again.  Spintendo  00:55, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that. The link works for me on my laptop, but maybe it has some glitch which I missed.
Anyway, my mention of you is to boldly accuse you of good, diligent, conscientious assessment of sources in a FA. You utter rascal, you. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 01:09, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@BrownHairedGirl No no the link you left was perfect, it was my phone that was screwing up and not letting me to find it. I've discovered that sometimes i have to click on "view in browser" to be able to follow a link all the way.  Spintendo  01:17, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Missing neutrality on Wikipedia Page

How can it be that any attempt to establish neutrality on the Wikipedia page ,,Dadvan Yousuf" is directly eliminated? There was a big research published in the talk section with a lot of evidence 1h ago and a few minutes later it was directly deleted by a administrator. 217.165.4.209 (talk) 15:48, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

NIt was deleted because it was block evasion. Lavalizard101 (talk) 19:10, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This was not a block evasion but a suggestion with sources to revise and restore neutrality.
It looks more like @Lavalizard101 has a personal problem with the topic, the page or the person behind the Wikipedia page.
How else can you try so hard to keep the current misinformation in the article. 94.200.195.18 (talk) 08:00, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Come off it, do you think we are stupid? you are obviously evading the blocks on User:HaLIHianl et al. Lavalizard101 (talk) 08:23, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request for GoodLeap

Hi Spintendo - hope you're doing well. Please, if you have time can you take a look at my answers to your request to add quotes from a paywalled article I used as a source for my edit request, found at Talk:GoodLeap#Reply_10-JUL-2023? Let me know if I can provide any additional information or if I'm approved to make these edits myself (as I have before with permission). All the best, JesseGoodLeap (talk) 13:10, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Response given at the article's talk page.  Spintendo  19:40, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Spintendo - I hope all is well. This is just a little reminder to ask you, when you have time, to take a look at my answer to concerns that you expressed at Talk:GoodLeap#Reply_10-JUL-2023. Thanks, JesseGoodLeap (talk) 16:38, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Galerie Gmurzynska. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Nat Gertler (talk) 18:04, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

NatGertler Firstly, your own talk page message after your first stubify stated If you wish to build the article from reliable sources, move forward! By adding those reliable sources, I am following your own directions. Secondly, do not template me, or ever post a message on my talk page again.  Spintendo  18:15, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BeiGene edit requests

Hi! Just a heads up I've replied to your feedback at Talk:Beigene. Please let me know if you'd prefer if I open up a new request in response to your feedback. Thank you much. Mary Gaulke (talk) 18:03, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MaryGaulke I've moved the page to BeiGene per your request, and the other issues I'll address in my reply on the article's talk page. If you could go ahead and check to make sure that any fair use rationales for the logo and any other images used on the page are updated with the new article title, I'd appreciate it. Thank you! Regards,  Spintendo  04:20, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Roger that, I've confirmed. Thank you for your help! Mary Gaulke (talk) 18:48, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Follow up on Union Bancaire Prive edit request

Hi Spintendo, just wanted to give you a heads up that I edited my request based on your feedback on Talk:Union_Bancaire_Privée. Let me know what you think! Accenturesongnordics (talk) 08:48, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate you taking the effort to make these changes, it's much appreciated. However, please note that the changes you made to the article's talk page did not follow the guidelines according to WP:REDACT, which govern how editors are to make changes to previous talk page posts. Please take a moment to acquaint yourself with those practices. Thank you! Regards,  Spintendo  10:39, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the feedback, I will dig into the practices. I see now that large parts of the original page (which I didn't do any changes to) has been removed? Before I requested the edit, the page still had sections on "Asset management", "Alternative investments", "Sales and trading", "Investment philosophy" and "Financials", which all now has been removed? Accenturesongnordics (talk) 12:20, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your reply. You're correct about the deletions. The text that was removed contained promotional content which discussed the bank's investment philosophy, its alternative investments and its new hedge fund platform. The financial section was also removed, as it discussed the bank's "solid financial base and strong balance sheet" which is all phrasing of a promotional nature. This type of information is better published on the bank's own website, for which, a link has been provided at the bottom of the Wikipedia article and in the infobox, for readers to easily access. Regards,  Spintendo  12:49, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Appreciate the explanation. Is there any way to get these parts of the page back - thinking of a way to make it less promotional, but still being able to address the different services that the bank has to offer. Accenturesongnordics (talk) 08:26, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Accenturesongnordics Thank you for your question. A good way to get this information back would be if any of these services were discussed by independent, reliable secondary sources. This would not include any information published on websites that cover the financial industry, as that information oftentimes originates from press releases issued by the companies in question. Regards,  Spintendo  12:40, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jake Paul vs Askren PPV Buys

On wikipedia's page for paul vs askren it states it did 500k buys... on Jake's page it says 1.5 mil buys... that was reported by Triller who isn't a reliable source... Jake has even admitted it only did 500k buys... please change it on Jake's page... 174.54.26.198 (talk) 19:03, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@174.54.26.198 I see your point, but that leaves the question of what it should be changed to. I haven't checked, but do you know who the source is that's being used in the other article? If they have a reliable source, we can use it for the main article. Otherwise without a source, the other article's mentioning of that figure can't be used elsewhere on Wikipedia, per WP:WALLEDGARDEN. Regards,  Spintendo  20:31, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
