Hey there. I just undid your recent edit to the Flula Borg article and I want to explain why because it was, overall, a perfectly fine edit and I don't want my action to imply otherwise. Here are my reasons:

  1. You accidentally introduced a formatting error that messed up the beginning of the article. No big deal; it happens, but it obviously did need to be fixed.
  2. The specific way you rearranged the bits of information (the fact that he often goes by his first name only, the fact that it's sometimes written as "f|u|a", and his birth date) was, in my opinion, a little confusing. I wouldn't object to tweaking the current construction a little if you feel strongly about it, but I'd appreciate a bit of input on the actual change if you would be comfortable with that. Two heads are often better than one and all that jazz. We can certainly discuss it if you want. I'm not at all into arguing over minor points; I just want to keep things clear for readers.
  3. You removed the word "sometimes" in the phrase "sometimes stylized as 'f|u|a;", and this creates an inaccuracy. It is fairly common, but it's far less than 50% of the time, and removing the word "sometimes" implies that it's most or all of the time. I'd strongly advise leaving that bit in, though obviously I'm open to hearing your perspective if you feel differently.

Thanks for your attention to this article and your desire to improve it. Please let me know if you have questions or concerns about anything I've said or done related to the situation and, in the meantime, have a great week! -- edi(talk) 14:34, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First; without source

Second: language of Xiongnu is unknown. An analysis by Savalyev and Jeong has cast doubt on the Yeniseian theory. If assuming that the ancient Yeniseians were represented by modern Ket people, who are more genetically similar to Samoyedic speakers, the Xiongnu do not display a genetic affinity for Yeniseian peoples 7712Touch74396 (talk) 23:51, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

inquiry: RfC: Trump infobox photo

[edit]
  • Dear, LK regarding the photo, many other US presidents have used photos from 10, 15 or 25 years ago for their official portraits, so wouldn't it be fair for Trump to use his best photo? I'd like to hear your advice on what you think about my opinion.Goodtiming8871 (talk) 05:08, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some bubble tea for you!
