Mass changes

Hi, I am concerned about your mass changes about the date(dmy)-template you apply to all(?) locations on wikipedia. Mainly it fills up my and others' watchlist. Would you mind to add a bot tag (and a minor edit tag) to it, so we can dismiss (hide) them when listing the watchlist?! Thanks indeed! -- ZH8000 (talk) 14:07, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BRFA is needed

For insignificant edits, please gain consensus first and use the WP:BRFA process, also see WP:MEATBOT. With a bot flag, your edits won't flood RecentChanges and you'll have valid consensus before introducing insignificant edits. When running AWB in semi-automated mode, you must guarantee that you checked every edit, I am pretty confident that did not happen. That aside, atleast two people have regarded your edits as disruptive, so please pause the current activity, and a) slow down and check every edit, or b) gain bot approval. qedk (t 愛 c) 10:56, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, can you take care to evaluate the correct template for an article when the MDY template is already present. Adding the DMY template without checking for the existence of the MDY creates a conflict when both are present on an article. e.g your edit to the Roubaix article. - X201 (talk) 07:37, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please restore state names in infoboxes

Please restore state names in infoboxes, also please quit removing them, per your recent edits https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Cyrobyte --- • Sbmeirow • Talk • 18:07, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:INFOBOXGEO states "where the article title is disambiguated, the plain name can head the infobox, as long as the topic is clear". This issue is also discussed at at Template talk:Infobox settlement/Archive 32#Redundancy in this infobox and Template talk:Infobox settlement#State Name in Infobox. The consensus appears to be that the state name should not be at the top of the infobox. The name of the state in these articles is a disambiguator. Cyrobyte (talk • contributions • email) 03:44, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Template talk:Infobox settlement#State Name in Infobox isn't an official vote for USA articles, because the question was asked in the wrong place. I clearly said in the same section "If this only concerns communities in United States, then this should be discussed and voted on at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cities/US Guideline." but you ignored my comment. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 04:47, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Waste of time

Hi, I do hope that you realize that edits like this are a waste of time. We italicize names of articles on journals/magazines/books/etc, but not talk pages. Also, you're basically doing a bot's job, who can do these boring repetitive edits to the thousands of articles on publications in a fraction of the time that it would take you. --Randykitty (talk) 12:24, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom remedy at Trump

Apparently you are unaware of the ArbCom remedy in place at Donald Trump. This can be found on its talk page: "You must follow the bold-revert-discuss cycle if your change is reverted. You may not reinstate your edit until you post a talk page message discussing your edit and have waited 24 hours from the time of this talk page message."

Please self-revert and comply with the remedy. Thank you. ―Mandruss ☎ 03:53, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

August 2024

To enforce an arbitration decision, and for failing to abide by the BRD restriction at Donald Trump after being previously warned, you have been blocked from editing Wikipedia for a period of 1 week. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions.

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard, I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page.

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

List of Grey Cup champions

Note the following statement from List of Grey Cup champions:

As defined in the 2016 CFL's Facts, Figures, and Records and the 2023 CFL Guide & Record Book, for historical record purposes and by the current Ottawa Redblacks' request, the Ottawa Football Clubs are considered to be a single entity since 1876 with two periods of inactivity (1997–2001 and 2006–2013). Consequently, figures from the Ottawa Football Club (1876–1898), Ottawa Rough Riders (1899–1919, 1931–1996), Ottawa Senators (1920–1930), Ottawa Renegades (2002–2005), and Ottawa Redblacks (2014–present) are included as one.

In summary, all Ottawa CFL football clubs are considered to be a single entity.Assadzadeh (talk) 03:20, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that you are trying to improve the article by center aligning the first column, which should be working correctly, but while you are also trying to right align the second column (Date), the changes you are making are screwing up the sorting. As such, when you sort down, the years 1916 to 1919 appear first and when you sort up, the most recent date (2026 in this case) which should appear first, does not. Assadzadeh (talk) 20:02, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

One suggestion would be to make the Date column not sortable, similar to what you are proposing for the Score column. Assadzadeh (talk) 21:07, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the updates, the sorting now works correctly for the Date colum. Would you please also right-align the numbers under the Attendance column? Assadzadeh (talk) 22:05, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
