To restore information

Sir, the edit which you did in Dr. Shamsheer Vayalil early life paragraph is just horrible. You removed many important informations from that "Early life" paragraph. Please! restore that. Thanks. (223.230.133.231 (talk) 05:50, 18 June 2019 (UTC))[reply]

@223.230.133.231: That wasn’t me, you can check here. I added his residence, like you asked on the help desk. Willbb234 (talk) 06:19, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To restore the information

Sir, I apologize for my mistake. I request you, that please! restore the removed information in the Early life paragraph of Dr. Shamsheer Vayalil. One more thing, also link the meaning of "Radiologist" in occupation column present in infobox. Thanks. (223.230.133.231 (talk) 07:00, 18 June 2019 (UTC))[reply]

I recommend that you read this introduction to editing, so that you don’t have to ask others to edit on your behalf. That way, you can change information when and where you want. I will look into the page again to see what I can do. Regards, Willbb234 (talk) 07:16, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sir, I know how to edit but my edits are not saved on Wikipedia page, that's why I ask other editors to edit. I have edited various Wikipedia pages but my edits are not saved in any one of them. That's why I left editing Wikipedia and generally ask others to do it.

Thanks. (223.230.133.231 (talk)) —Preceding undated comment added 07:27, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why do they not save? Maybe try to create an account, it might work then. Just a suggestion, Willbb234 (talk) 07:31, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sir, I will surely try to make my account. I think this is the reason why my edits are not saved. Till then you make the desire edits that I stated you above.

Thanks. (223.230.133.231 (talk) 07:42, 18 June 2019 (UTC))[reply]

New comment

I am trying to contact Willb234 to discuss why he undid the additions to Arnold Thackray's bio made on 14 June, in which I listed provided a complete list of organizations that Arnold Thackray played a key role in establishing, as referenced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.94.89.104 (talk) 20:53, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I presume this is Lipien.
  • Firstly, it is important you do not edit using an IP for accusations of sock puppetry may arise.
  • To address your comment, I have left a response on the talk page of your registered account, explaining the reasons for the reversion.
If you have any issues, please contact me so that I can hopefully provide a reason for my actions or change my actions in the future.
Best wishes, Willbb234 (talk) 21:19, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to establish why the edits I made on 14 June to Arnold Thackray's bio warranted deletion. I added information that is referenced to the opening paragraph. One may find similar paragraphs at other bios on Wikipedia. Lipen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.94.89.104 (talk) 22:49, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Arnold Thackray

First of all, I have made any and all edits or contributions to Wikipedia exclusively as Lipien. So I don't know on what basis you can accuse me of 'sock puppetry,' which I had to look up to find out what it is. Secondly, the last edits made to ARnold Thackray only augmented the information that already existed in the introductory paragraph, which already noted two organizations that he had founded. I added to that list to make it complete. Your explanation for the deletion was hardly justified, as the sentences I wrote were quite understandable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lipien (talk • contribs) 23:14, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Arnold Thackray

I know that Arnold Thackray was born in Manchester, England, but because that information hasn't been published elsewhere, it should be kept from readers of Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lipien (talk • contribs) 23:44, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If the information has not been published, it cannot be used in a Wikipedia article. Read WP:OR - Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it just reguritates already published information. Willbb234 (talk) 06:51, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Arnold Thackray

I wait for your reply to my question. I had added that ARnold Thackray was born in Manchester because I know that he was born there. It is somewhat common knowledge among historians of science of Thackray's generation, since people know each other. Why should Thackray's birthplace remain a secret for Wikipedia readers. What is your motivation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lipien (talk • contribs) 23:36, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia’s motivation is not to tell false information. How can you prove, without showing me a WP:RS that he is born in Machester. Please read WP:OR. Willbb234 (talk) 06:58, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Flags on List of Nobel laureates

You might want to join the discussion on that article's talkpage before adding any other {{flagicon}}s...I and at least one other editor have raised MOS concerns about them. DMacks (talk) 04:01, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@DMacks: Thank you, I have had a look. I don’t really agree it is ‘xenophobic and extremely offensive’ but I won’t be adding anymore flagicons so as not to anger anyone. Regards, Willbb234 (talk) 06:55, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Posted here at the request of Toddst1

Toddst1, it is disruptive to remove uncited text without challenging it first. You should really add a {{cn|date=June 2019}} tag and wait. It is polite to let the editor know that you have added it. Also, please do not bite the newcomers. Moonraker (talk) 13:21, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nope - that's the policy of the WP:DOTY project - the pages were such a mess that new entries without citations will be removed on sight. For details: content guideline, the style guide or the edit notice on any of those pages.
As far as biting the newcomers, I believe I'm leaving polite notices when I address their issues like this. If you think that's bitey, then I don't have much more to say.
If you want to continue this discussion, let's do it on my talk page please so we don't further annoy Will. Thanks. Toddst1 (talk) 14:46, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your Reference Desk Question

Hi, I think that plant is called Filago vulgaris, it has the common name of cudweed. I have a certainty of about 80%. Hope that helps. Best to you. Richard Avery (talk) 18:14, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Richard Avery:Thank you very much for the help! My only concern is that the article states that they can grow up to 30cm in height, however I’m sure the ones I have are a little taller than that, although I’ll have to check. Thanks once again, Willbb234 (talk) 18:33, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Just found this website which states that they can grow up to 20 inches. That’s more like it! Regards, Willbb234 (talk) 18:37, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aurinia saxatilis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AGM (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Cricket world cup

Hello. You left a message on my talk page regarding NPOV. I understand that and I think that you may be mistaken because I was not the one who added that the final was thrilling. I merely added the content above it and corrected the grammar a bit. Just because I was the recent editor of the that paragraph does not mean that I wrote the non-neutral part. I think if you would like to check the history and compare revisions, you may find out what I added and who added the non-neutral part because maybe you would want to inform the real user who added that. Thank you. Kashish Arora (talk) 11:39, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
