Edit summaries are your friend

While I don't disagree with this edit (the material you removed was largely promotional), such a large edit (you removed over 40% of the article content!) needs an edit summary so other users can understand your reasoning. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 16:13, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. The article was a bit of a mess. It is certainly shorter, but also better now. Polygnotus (talk) 19:58, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

September 2022

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Achnabat. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Dl2000 (talk) 20:02, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dl2000: I think you got the wrong guy. ;-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Yeetfakename34567 Polygnotus (talk) 20:22, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dl2000: While this edit by Polygnotus featured a somewhat humorous edit summary, the edit itself was valid, removing an unsourced bit of information about the town having been founded by the Illuminati, and correcting the spelling of the word crofting.

According to Google Maps and Google Streetview Achnabat consists of a house, a farm building, and some sheep. It is beautiful, and it would be the perfect home for a secret society (if they all fit in a single house). Better still, it is very very close to Loch Ness and its monster. But considering the vandal also claimed that a tiny village in Poland was founded by the "illuminate" (sic) I think it is reasonable to remove those claims until reliable sources have been provided. ;-) https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rak%C3%B3wiec&diff=prev&oldid=867137355 Polygnotus (talk) 20:56, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough - the removal of unref claims and wording error was valid. The edit summary threw me off, though. Dl2000 (talk) 21:00, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ajmer

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Ajmer rape case, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 16:36, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please ignore, I now see the source you mentioned on the talk page. CodeTalker (talk) 16:38, 18 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Draftification

Hello, Polygnotus,

I was wondering why you moved Accelerated experiential dynamic psychotherapy to Draft space. It was not an appropriate article to move to Draft space so I don't think you understand the rules surrounding what articles are draftified and which ones are not. Please do not move any more articles to Draft space until you are more clear on the guidelines of how this is supposed to be done. Thanks. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 08:57, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

PROD in userspace

Hi Polygnotus! Hope you are having a good day and thank you for wading through pages in userspace that are not appropriate to be on wikipedia. I came across a few such pages you had used the WP:PROD process on that are in userspace; however, WP:PROD can only be used on articles. If something is in userspace, then it can either be deleted via WP:CSD criteria such as WP:U5: Not a webhost, WP:G3: Blantant hoax/vandalism, WP:G10: Attack page, WP:G11: Purely promotional page or others (all of which are listed at WP:CSD). You might want to consider using WP:Twinkle to help with this, as it allows you to pick CSD categories from a tool dropdown. Have a great rest of your day. Cheers!

Thanks! Good point; I should've checked. Have a nice day, Polygnotus (talk) 15:37, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

COI

Once again, you have accused me of having a COI regarding Landmark. Please either provide evidence that this is the case, or retract the accusation. The link to a search of edits I have done over the years on the Landmark talk page does not remotely establish this. DaveApter (talk) 08:52, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your aggressive behaviour on the Landmark Worldwide talk page.

Since September 25th, when you declared your opinion that Landmark was a "weird cult" (whatever that may mean), you have conducted extensive edit wars and made a number of personal attacks. I removed the NPOV tag because you had failed to provide a clear explanation of why you thought it to be appropriate. Your only response was to conduct an edit war, arguably violating the 3RR rule. Your post on my page accusing me of violating this rule was unsubstantiated. It is my prerogative which comments I choose to keep on my own talk page, and which I choose to delete.
