Aegean civilizations move
[edit]Please DO NOT do undiscussed moves on major articles like this. I will ask an admin to revert it & if you want to you can launch the proper move proposal with the WP:RM procedure. Johnbod (talk) 13:13, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
- Revert? What's the purpose? Em. Whatever. --Abatishchev (talk) 16:01, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

[edit]
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.
Thanks! SounderBruce 05:47, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
- Hello. You could post this without undoing all my changes in bulk. It would be in other order of magnitude more useful and polite. The rules do not state that providing a summary is mandatory, neither that a change without one shall be reverted. I will consider adding summary next time though. Thank you. --Abatishchev (talk) 06:01, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
Era styles
[edit]You need to follow WP:ERA. I'd prefer BCE, but that was a BC article. You should also read Pharaoh as that title didn't exist until the 19th dynasty. Doug Weller talk 17:55, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for pointing out regarding the pharaoh title, I didn't know that. Regarding BC vs BCE I fundamentally disagree with Wikipedia rules. When rules fail to do what's right (e.g. to do not apply the Jesus F. Christ based enumeration of years to Ancient Egypt) and fail to prevent what's wrong (e.g. call modern fascists who they are - fascists) they fail the institution. Wikipedia is a failed institution. That having said I see the enforcement of such rules being neither adequate, nor just. --Abatishchev (talk) 18:18, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- Maybe, but they're what we've got. They are there to stop WP:Editwarring, and you can always start a discussion to change an era style. Doug Weller talk 18:43, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

November 2021
[edit] Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. freshacconci (✉) 14:13, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
- I'd say "sure, will do" if you didn't roll back a bunch of my prior edits. Just because you can, just because they don't have edit summary. If Wikipedia mandated to filling in the edit summary - the field would be made mandatory. But it's not. I consider what you did not just extremely rude but inappropriate. The lack of edit summary does not warrant a roll back, rules nowhere say that. But this is Wikipedia, nothing I can do. Until you roll back your roll backs and put my edits where they were - get the out of my page. Alright? Then sure, will do. --Abatishchev (talk) 17:34, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
February 2022
[edit]
Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Cast recording, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. freshacconci (✉) 19:46, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- Please don't rollback others' changes without a comment. You rolled back mine without one, I rolled back yours. Putting "no references since 2007", i.e. for last 15 (!) years, is pointless and at this point is noise. If you want to fix the highlighted issues in the article - fix it. Otherwise it's just abuse. --Abatishchev (talk) 19:49, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
