Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Tijuana. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Thank you. Caius G. (talk) 20:00, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
@Caius G.: Hello, it seems you have misinterpreted the edit, I reverted vandalism by 117.197.62.0. You reverted my edit reintroducing the vandalism, I am not the vandal. Thanks. Dylsss (talk) 20:09, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
-- @Dylsss: My apologies! It appeared to me as if you were the one adding the supposed founder. I'll revert my own edit. Sorry again! Caius G. (talk) 20:12, 25 August 2020 (UTC) Hi Dylsss
Thank you for your helpful guidance for me a newbie poster, although i am most definately not a vandal! Re Stonyhurst College I had to go back several times to incporporate the original posters comments which were factually incorrect- plus his refs were right but i did not think i would have to repeat them as you just need to link into his refs to see how his comments were misleading!I then added some more- i did say that the first letter quoted was published in the catholic herald december 2 2002 and the second one was published on the blog of Bishop Pat Buckley- just googe him to get his blog. I hope this is ok? regards Monty 330Monty330 (talk)I —Preceding undated comment added 22:18, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hello, I am not sure I understand fully what you are saying. Your edits are unnecessarily long, they quote too much directly, references are inside brackets instead of inline citations, and
is definitely not neutral or appropriate for an encyclopedia. There are also not enough inline citations supporting individual statements. It also reads to me like you may be copying this from another source, rather than something you have written yourself, which is not allowed per WP:COPYPASTE. Dylsss (talk) 22:48, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Stonyhurst is a very difference place today compared with 40-50 years ago. Nonetheless, in summarising a history, it is important to accept the good AND the bad, and, in particular, give a voice to abused victims who hitherto have largely been ignored or (ahem) swept under the carpet.
Page Deletation
Hi, I created a new Wikipedia page about DonMk and I saw you requested Deletation.. I created this page as bio for my artist character. I am a musician and I was looking to make myself more easier to find as there are alot of people with "Mk" in their names.. Thanks. I hope you understand. Mohammed Ishaku (talk) 23:06, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
- @Mohammed Ishaku: Hello, using your user page as a way to promote yourself, and for content not related to Wikipedia's goals, is not acceptable per WP:G11 and WP:U5. Dylsss (talk) 23:16, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
Oh sorry. I had no idea. Thanks for clearing that up. Mohammed Ishaku (talk) 23:45, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
Bar Fruit (talk) 21:10, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
Hi Dylsss, I have already submitted the link to the FL DBPR (Florida Department of Business Professional Regulations), and have uploaded documents from this government-run licensing agency with regards to confirmed thoroughbred deaths. I receive these notifications via public records requests. It is unclear to me why you are suppressing the truth, but indeed you are. I have submitted multiple examples to Wikipedia of the results of such public records requests, but you are classifying this as “disruptive”. Your deleting them is not only egregiously inappropriate, but counter to what’s Wikipedia stands for- which is disseminating the truth from all perspectives. Are you truly impartial? Kindly leave my edits. Else, Wikipedia’s Gulfstream Park page is just a free advertisement for the racing industry. Thank you.
- @Bar Fruit: Thank you for contacting me via my talk page. Personally, I think horse racing is a cruel industry, which results in unnecessary horse deaths. However, there are multiple issues with your edits, which is why they have been reverted by me and other Wikipedians multiple times. Firstly
Is inappropriate because it violates WP:OR, it has not been cited from any reliable source, it is not encyclopedic, and is your own commentary, Wikipedia does not conduct original research. SecondlyGulfstream Park regularly edits the replays of horses with catastrophic breakdowns. Below is a small sample of this activity: AUGER collapsed 7.8.29 FULL: https://vimeo.com/436599337 EDITED: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlzLtXAqJvc RUN DEVIL “awkward step” 8.20.20 FULL https://vimeo.com/449856744 EDITED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFeDtDhO0bo ALLURSTRA 8.28.20 Breaks a front leg FULL: https://vimeo.com/452689543 EDITED: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpzxlrIdeq8 CHANNELED’S ANGEL 8.30.20 Breaks a front leg FULL: https://vimeo.com/453111300 EDITED: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VYWdRvjdT0.
is not relevant to the article, nor is it backed up with any sort of citation, also not appropriate for Wikipedia.Racetracks have 18 hours to file death confirmations with the FL DBPR of horses killed or found dead on the racetrack. Horses that end up in kill pens to be purchased by kill buyers are not kept track of. There is no legal obligation to report on these horses’ whereabouts, and commonly horses end up on cattle cars on a train, destined for slaughterhouses in Mexico and Canada. While not illegal to slaughter a horse for human consumption in the US, the USDA has defunded inspecting the meat. This is why the death toll will always be higher than what is reported by the racetrack.
is uncited, and constitutes WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH, since in your above reply, you state yourself that2019: 58 deaths of thoroughbred horses on this racetrack, as confirmed by the FL DBPR (Florida Department of Business Professional Regulations) pari-mutuel wagering division via public records requests. Http://www.myflorida.com/DBPR/
it appears that the death amount is your own research, and you have not cited any source, http://www.myflorida.com/DBPR/ is a dead link for me, and does not link to the amount of horse deaths at this entity.I receive these notifications via public records requests
is also uncited. Do not add information without being able to WP:VERIFY it, whenever you make an edit to Wikipedia, it is expected that the statement is verifiable, if it is not, you should expect it to be reverted. I've already reverted 4 times, constituting an edit war, I encourage you to add references, otherwise I will revert it again in 24 hours, or another editer might revert it sooner. Addtionally refernces are not in the correct syntax, they are in plain text. Thank you. Dylsss (talk) 21:53, 3 September 2020 (UTC)2020: Through July 30th there are 35 confirmed deaths of thoroughbred horses.
I have carefully reviewed the editing disputes page, your comments, and have repeatedly provided “balancing material” citations, as the Gulfstream Park page is biased. I have also edited what I provided, as I am learning the Wikipedia rules and am interested in adhering to them. Further, I have not deleted a single item from the page. I am being respectful to both you and the site. My material is from the government run licensing agency that keeps track of thoroughbred race horses euthanized on racetracks. The material I have provided is in succinct fashion, and can be fact checked. How are these confirmed deaths that have occurred at Gulfstream Park as a direct result of horse racing, not relevant to the page? If this isn’t “balancing material”, then please explain what is.
The Public Records Act, Chapter 119.07 of the Florida Statutes entitles individuals to submit public records requests to state licensing agencies. [1] Such requests are sent to the Florida Department of Business Professional Regulations (FL DBPR) pari-mutuel wagering division. Racehorse deaths must be reported within 18 hours to the FL DBPR according to Florida statue rule 61D-2.023(7)(c), [2] , and in 2019 Gulfstream Park has reported 58 deaths to the FL DBPR. The public is entitled to this information. [3] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bar Fruit (talk • contribs) 18:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Bar Fruit: You have not reviewed the links to Wikipedia policies which I have given to you, so instead I will quote the important parts
On Wikipedia, an inline citation refers to a citation in a page's text placed by any method that allows the reader to associate a given bit of material with specific reliable source(s) that support it.
Your citation verifies that I can make a public access request, not how many horses have died at this venue, and as such, does not satisfy the verifiability policy which saysIn the English Wikipedia, verifiability means other people using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source.
as said in the policyAll content must be verifiable. The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material
, the burden lies with you, not me. AdditionallySource material must have been published, the definition of which for our purposes is "made available to the public in some form".
, the material you're adding, you claim comes from a public access request, and as such is not published or verified by an inline citation. The verifiability policy also saysAny material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source.
, which is why I've removed the material, and why you should not be adding it back unless you can satisfy the Wikipedia policies verifiability and original research. Your material is original research, because as said in the policyThe phrase "original research" (OR) is used on Wikipedia to refer to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist
, it also saysDo not add unsourced material from your personal experience, because that would make Wikipedia a primary source of that material.
, which is what you are doing. While what you are adding may be true, the original research policy saysEven if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it.
. You seem to be a single-purpose account focused only on adding this material, rather than contributing constructively to Wikipedia. Dylsss (talk) 20:07, 3 October 2020 (UTC) - Also, this is not "balancing material", NPOV is about how we write about and summarise what reliable sources have said, but your material has no source, so NPOV doesn't apply here, and adding negative unverifiable content does not somehow make an article more neutral. Neither is your information "confirmed", it's confirmed by you, so it is primary original research. Dylsss (talk) 20:37, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
Can you help me change my user name and publish my article for my new client? JabrielAtOmoMusicGroup (talk) 18:42, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
- @JabrielAtOmoMusicGroup: Hello, I do not have the rights to change your username, only users in the global renamers group or stewards can change usernames on Wikimedia projects, and as said on your talk page, you do not need to change your username. While I do have the rights to move your draft to article space, it should be reviewed by an Articles for Creation reviewer, you can submit it for a review by placing
{{subst:submit}}
at the top of the article and clicking the "Submit your draft for review!" button, there is however currently a backlog of 3,300 articles waiting for review, so it could take up to 2 months for the draft to be reviewed. Additionally, I do not believe this person is notable enough to have a Wikipedia article per WP:MUSICBIO and WP:ARTIST. Thanks. Dylsss (talk) 20:25, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Hey! Sorry, I accidentally reverted your revert. I misread the history. Sorry about that! I originally had a notice here, but I removed it as to not cause confusion. motevets (talk) 22:58, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
Jessica Harp
Hello Dylsss, I note you removed the update I made to this article yesterday; the Myspace was nothing to do with me, but given that her "official site" is now evidently defunct, and she has the link to the site I added at the top of her Twitter bio, I can't help but feel that it's more-or-less her "official site" now. Not the end of the world either way, but just thought the context might carry some value.78.144.76.44 (talk) 15:31, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- @78.144.76.44: Fansites and social media should generally be avoided as an external link per WP:ELNO, especially without any context, I don't think it really makes sense including it. Dylsss (talk) 18:29, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Hey, just wanted to say sorry for reverting your edit on Hampton School. I had Twinkle on, and accidentally clicked revert without thinking. I’ve edited it back to your latest version. EdNg07 (talk) 14:55, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Biased views
Hi Dylsss
The amendments made by me to two of the wikipedia pages are factually and widely accepted view and therefore. The French Govt. Chevalier award is not given to any tom, dick and Harry and just becuase an actor comes from outside the Bollywood fraternity, edits which is widely accepted and does not cause harm and hurt to anyone should not be rejected. this could create an impression that the contents are controlled to promote a particular view point and you must be aware, majority of media course in the World is biased and wither support a school of thought or of a particular Government or organisation.
The edits on Jayalalitha, a popular Chief Minister of the State of Tamil Nadu in India, is all factual and can be verified from multiple sources.
Please therefore accept the edits made by me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by REALPATRIOTICINDIAN (talk • contribs) 00:02, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
Rollback granted
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e7/Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Rollbacker.svg.png)
Hi Dylsss. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~Swarm~ {sting} 01:28, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
Re- Sexual Orientation
The Sexual Preference (Early 2000's Term) page is missing, and no longer redirects to the page (Modern Term) Sexual Orientation. There's current political unrest causing old definitions labeled as offensive to be deleted despite there being historical significance for outdated terms. Wikipedia has a duty to denote all changes to history, including those which might be seen as offensive or inappropriate. I have reason to believe it may be best to review edits to the Sexual Orientation page without official federal linguistic and librarian feedback as to which term should be utilized. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AKB769 (talk • contribs) 20:46, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
- @AKB769: I'm not an invloved editor and I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. Regardless, blanking a page is disruptive in most cases. Sexual preference does redirect to Sexual orientation, Sexual Preference with a capital P redirects to a book. Dylsss (talk) 21:10, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
Not really used to the layout, but when I searched with Sexual Preference, it autodirected to Orientation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AKB769 (talk • contribs) 21:20, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Feedback Regarding My Request For a Rebuild of Musical Acts That Played the Omni
Yea, so you have classified my desired page reset as irrelevant and directory material, appears you are the judge of relevancy. In that case, type in Wrigley field, and notice the entire section of musical acts that happened at that arena. Try that on a few more stadiums, and perhaps question yourself perhaps its just you....its on the majority of stadium/arena pages that host concerts, but ONLY stricken from the Omni page. People actually USE that reference. And look over my lack of knowledge with regard to how to navigate through this rat nest of a site and not be rude with my incorrect placement of information, I will figure it out. Its not a paying job so I probably will not put that many hours in. You can delete this message as soon as you read it and there is no need to reply. But if you removed it, ask yourself why it was removed from that one, and the others were left alone.
