The section I deleted was fake news. There was no citation because it was literally made up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.68.232.40 (talk) 13:02, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Low-level laser therapy
What Mr Barret FEELS or have a subjective opinion on is completely irrelevant. He is not an expert or have any competence in PBM whatsoever. Please use evidence based research and articles instead of a subjective opinion. National Institute of Health and Care Excellence is at the top of evidencepyramide and they recommend PBM for preventing and treating Oral mucositis. Oral mucositis is composed of inflammatory markers and as such PBM will also be effective where inflammation and pain is present in pathologies - that includes a wide range of pathologies. Also, when looking at effektive treatments we look at effect sizes; meaning that a high effect size equal an effective treatment. PBM has an effect size of > 0.8, meaning it is highly effective. Compared to NSAIDS which in their first systematic review only had about 10.1 VAS over placebo with a small to moderate pain relief.
https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ipg615 - NICE overview https://doi.org/10.1089/pho.2017.4399 - optimal parameters and pain relief, with effect sizes. Fail-safe is 2515 articles. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31662383/ - knee OA and mention of VAS (NSAIDS) in their first systematic review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.167.176.17 (talk) 10:12, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with this unlogged in user that Barrett's article does not merit inclusion on the LLLT page, though I disagree with their approach and I don't think the evidence they cite supports their argument (secondary sources on the efficacy of the treatment regarding pain relief and osteoarthritis does not necessarily disprove Barrett's claim in regards to cancer treatment side effects). I also don't agree that Barrett's competence in a specific area is a good measure of whether his article fits Wikipedia's standards, it is clear that Barrett's article does not meet WP:MEDRS. It is not a meta analysis, nor a systematic review. The article has not been peer reviewed and has not been published in a peer reviewed journal. It does not cite sources for its claim that "there's no reason to believe that they will influence the course of any ailment or are more effective than other forms of heat delivery." It may have a place in the history section or in a new section as an article on US Government action against Anodyne and Qlaser, if that is deemed relevant to the page. I may update the page later today if I have time, it's been on my to do list for ages. XVDC (talk) 12:26, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- XVDC, I just want to note that I only reverted the edit because there was no explanation for removing the content in the change summary. Now there's an explanation for why, that removal of content can be done, but it was unexplained, and that is why I reverted it. --Belwine • 💬 • 📜 12:30, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- That is fair and I agree with your reasoning. I think I will try an edit rather than moving to revert back to the previous version to accommodate Barrett's article regarding government action. Thanks for your input. XVDC (talk) 13:11, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Diffusive Gradients in Thin-Films
Hi Belwine, thanks for letting me know you didn't approve of the changes i made. I wonder if you could explain why you thought they were inappropriate all needed to be deleted? If you thought the link to DGTResearch.com (which provides a wealth of information for DGT users, but also sells products) was inappropriate, then perhaps you'll want to apply the same principle to other links (e.g. EasySensor) on the page for consistency? Happy to discuss further :) Sci13ntist (talk) 21:27, 15 February 2021 (UTC)Sci13entist
- Sci13ntist, hi. Thanks for getting in touch. We generally don't have external links in article space. I usually patrol recent changes, so I can only see a difference between one edit and another, I don't look at the entire article. If the rest of the article has some external links, then, in my opinion, those should be removed. You are free to make the edit again, without external links in the article space. Again, thank you for getting in touch and wanting feedback - it shows that your changes here are in good faith. Thanks :) --Belwine (talk) 21:31, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

2022 Serbian general election
Hi. I edited an article about 2022 Serbian general election. I also left in my second edit cause of that. Yesterday, he told in an interview that he supports Grigorije Durić. I also left a link, so it would be nice if you get back my edit. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.116.165.33 (talk) 11:43, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- Hi 87.116.165.33. I reverted your edit on Dejan Žujović because it had an unexplained content removal. Whilst I can see your edit on 2022 Serbian general election had a source in the edit summary, your edit on Dejan Žujović did not. Please explain in the edit summary next time.

Warning users
Hello, I noticed that you do not warn users after reverting their edits. It is important to warn users explaining your revert, so that they are informed where they are wrong. Thank you. --Ashleyyoursmile! 16:17, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- Ashleyyoursmile, thanks for the message. I've been using SWViewer, and it doesn't seem to warn users. I have no idea whether that's a bug. I will see if I can warn them all now, thanks. Belwine (talk) 16:19, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- Oh I see where the problem is. I was actually having the same issue a couple of weeks ago. I think when you are reverting an edit, you need to click on "rollback with an edit summary" option at the bottom of the page. That opens a side-bar where there is an option to "warn user after revert" or something similar. You need to activate that. Hope this helps. :) Ashleyyoursmile! 16:22, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

External Links on Rider Haggard novel pages
Hi I am Pawabu. I am trying to add External Links for Rider Haggard's novels. The links I am adding are extremely informative for users, for they reveal many excellent images of the books and bibliographic information.

However, when you are replacing the content with "Balls Thank you", do you really think that's appropriate for your Wikipedia talk page? --Belwine (talk) 09:17, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

About removing the external link...
Hi Belwinem
How are you?
Just to let you know, "Lead Scoring" word - anchor text, the proposed external link and the wiki article all are matching with proper validations.
Please let me know, if there is any suggestion on that from you.
Or else, let me know the preferred place to set such link within the full article.
It's not for self promotion, you can check the link and page both. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yashkrisha (talk • contribs) 09:25, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
- Yashkrisha, hi. I'm good, thanks for asking, and I hope you are too.
Unfortunately, the external link you added appears to be a web agency, and not a reliable source. Also, we generally have external links in an "External links" section at the bottom of the article. Best, Belwine (talk) 09:38, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
Apologies
1. Most sorry about the Copyright, links to external homepage and any other problematic issues and errors indicated.
2. New to Wiki posting and not familiar with your rules.
3. Please, remove the unacceptable changes I made.
4. Or revert to the precious Wiki content.
5. Will greatly appreciate your restoring the Wiki page content with your red flag alert removed.
6. Thanks for your understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ginger Weird Man (talk • contribs) 16:41, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
You changed the President of Cameroon
About five minutes ago, I edited the President of Cameroon to say accurate, up to date information (changed the old president’s name to the new one) and then you edited to something else. I also edited the title of Assistant to the Regional Manager to say Dwight K. Schrute. All of this information is accurate.

Regarding link Adds to Gus Reyes Bio.
Adding links from sources already verified is important for the accuracy of information regarding this composer career. I don´t see any reason why some reviews of his work and an interview are problematic. Specially since the Bio needs those external links and sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2806:2F0:9240:490E:A161:4D89:77FB:BE56 (talk) 09:34, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

Hello friend. Please be careful when CSD tagging. Westward Ho! (1988 film) of course needs a tag, but we're supposed to wait 10 minutes before applying A1/A3 in case the author is still working on it.

Trying to delete non existing location.
Hello, I found a town https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azizkend which in fact does not exist, and tried to delete that location to avoid confusions, but it was reverted.

Disambiguation link notification for March 14
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jaime King, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page One Last Time. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:25, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Axam tamimi
my edit of AZAM tamimi was accurate as he was born in jordan HEbron was occupied by jordan from 1950-1967 therefore any one born there in that period were jordanian by birth I am just trying tp point out that as mr tamini was born in the 50s when all citizen born under the west bank was jordan, Hebron was in jordan at that point in time. 2A00:23C4:BB8E:9001:DA3:F0C7:F2A6:2B59 (talk) 19:28, 30 March 2021 (UTC) johnathan
- A lot of your changes did not make sense. For example, conflict between Jordan and Israel is not like the conflict between Palestine and Israel. Could you also offer a reliable source for this change? --Belwine (talk) 19:29, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Why are youy not acknowledging the fact that HJodan was the orginal occupier of the westbank Hence that any person who was born between 1948-1967 in the west bank were born in Jordan2A00:23C4:BB8E:9001:DA3:F0C7:F2A6:2B59 (talk) 19:33, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Look, there has not been consensus to make this pretty major change yet, and I am absolutely not an expert in this subject. Please go to the talk page of the article to discuss the changes you want to make. --Belwine (talk) 19:34, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- the subject i want to be changed is to acknowlege any one born in the west bank between 1948-1967 ve listen as jordanisan by birthright and that they were born in jordan, its to be accurate, because people keep forgetting that jordamn was the original occupier of the west bank
- the subject i want to be changed is to acknowlege any one born in the west bank between 1948-1967 ve listen as jordanisan by birthright and that they were born in jordan, its to be accurate, because people keep forgetting that jordamn was the original occupier of the west bank2A00:23C4:BB8E:9001:DA3:F0C7:F2A6:2B59 (talk) 19:41, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, well I think there should be consensus for that on the talk page. Or, you can make the change again, but someone else might revert it. --Belwine (talk) 19:50, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- why a consensus, When i am stating a fact, FActs need to be stated on wikipedia for accuracy and transparancy, you cant just say he is Palestinian when he wasnt born there, he has no claims to paletinain citixenship. Ill re edit his page and state that he is from Jordan and is jordanian by birth which is a fact. UNless there is legal recognition of his nationallity being palestinian then he must be lsiten as Jordanian as he was born there and had citizenship by birth2A00:23C4:BB8E:9001:DA3:F0C7:F2A6:2B59 (talk) 19:58, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, you can make the change again, I am currently active on another Wikimedia project. Someone else may revert it, but I will not (as I am currently looking at something else) --Belwine (talk) 19:59, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
AZAM Tamini
-- ANY Person born in the west bank between 1948-1967 were jordanian because jordan occupeid teh west bank at that point in tiem i was beign accurate to state they are jordanian by birthright and not palestinian 2A00:23C4:BB8E:9001:DA3:F0C7:F2A6:2B59 (talk) 19:34, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Hello Ferien, I hope all is well. Basically, my improvement to the page is changing the last name from "Ihab" to "Ehab". I am an Egyptian and the arabic word for that name is more commonly spelled with E. Not to mention, it seems like this is his preferred spelling as evident through his instgram page [1] and also it seems like the official spelling in the International Weightlifting federation records as evident in their official Youtube channel [2] 41.46.78.54 (talk) 21:14, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, thank you for getting back to me @41.46.78.54:. I'm going to start a discussion on the talk page. It is better to get consensus for these things. Sorry for reverting you. As you can see from my babel above, I do not really know any Arabic, hence why I reverted it, not really knowing about the Arabic spelling thing.--Ferien (talk) 21:17, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
Wow, thank you for getting back to me that quick! Take your time and we will see what the consensus is about this. Have a good day! 41.46.78.54 (talk) 21:37, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

responding on your page as courtesy copy
Hello, I'm Ferien. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to San Francisco Board of Education seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --Ferien (talk) 15:55, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
I've been adding numerous variety of news sources not only today but several past days to this article. Before you respond with an honest first reaction, take some time to review the full article and the number of sources that represent a variety of political leanings. I'm confident you'll discover that they all arrive at the same description, hence a consensus.
That is why I undid your undo. Appreciate your veteran status an editor, but I think to really make sure your statement is correct, I suggest you take a closer look. Even veterans editors can make mistakes. Regards, 2601:645:C001:4A40:8C42:D63B:8702:D99F (talk) 16:11, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi Ferien. 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! Anarchyte (talk • work) 08:30, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you! It's nice to have rollback here, it makes things a lot quicker :) --Ferien (talk) 16:25, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

- @69.14.52.109: Well in my opinion, a reliable source is better than an Instagram post. Please do not call people "dumb" for reverting your edits though, that is just rude. --Ferien (talk) 21:23, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Aafat-E-Ishq Draft
Hi Ferien, Hope you and your family are well during this pandemic situation. I am constantly monitoring this page & the latest news about this article Draft:Aafat-E-Ishq. There is no further news on the release and other details because of the COVID-19 situation. Therefore, I have not updated it since then. I know that the draft article lasts only for 6 months & there are still 2 months left.
Question: Will I get a few more months so that it can wait a bit longer? Once I have more details, will definitely work on it.
Let me know what could be the way forward. -- VKG1985 (Talk | E-Mail | Contrib) 13:30, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- @VKG1985: I'm not sure. I know the 6-month timer resets when you make an edit. But, if the page does end up getting deleted, you can get it back at WP:REFUND. I also hope that you are well in this situation. Regards, --Ferien (talk) 15:38, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

About dietary fiber#insulins
Hello Ferien,
Thank you for messaging me about my edit. I am quite surprised to receive such a quick response, and I am glad to see someone actively curating and monitoring Wikipedia articles for content quality. Users like you make Wikipedia an indispensably useful source of information.
I did make the edit ("insulins" --> "inulins") earlier to correct what I perceived to be a spelling typo in a heading. I was confused about "insulins" because from what I was taught there is only one "insulin." One particularly important detail (that led to my conclusion) is its energy content: "Inulin is advantageous because it contains 25–30% the food energy of sugar or other carbohydrates and 10–15% the food energy of fat." Knowing that insulin is a polypeptide hormone with **zero** energy content, I made my edits.
I hope that based on this information we can come to an understanding that this heading should be corrected to be more accurate. Let me know your comments and I'm happy to discuss this matter further.
99.76.229.63 (talk) 20:20, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- @99.76.229.63: Oh, I see. I am not a very scientific person so you are likely correct. Please feel free to make the edit again. Regards, --Ferien (talk) 20:22, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

- Hi Ferien, the above notices are about edits to the page Bobby Kaufmann. It is probably clear that a Twitter copy of a letter-to-the-editor can't be used as a source for such claims (WP:RSSELF), so it is clear that this has been an accident. I'm just notifying everyone who had restored the content. Feel free to remove this message if the situation is already clear; it was only meant for your information. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:03, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

- @General Ization: The main reason I said "feel free to readd" is because they had a source although that source doesn't seem to work. And I'm not saying that they need permission to add the edit, I'm just saying that it is acceptable as they are explaining the removal. I was not aware that it was repeatedly reverted and I had just reverted that one edit. My apologies. --Ferien (talk) 19:18, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
- Please understand that the editor's next response would be, not unreasonably, to say, "Ferien said it was OK!", even though you weren't endorsing their edit. A link to a source that doesn't work, or a source that is not a reliable source, is effectively the same as no source at all. Additionally, this editor has far exceeded WP:3RR, and a block has been requested. General Ization Talk 19:22, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
- @General Ization: It was not wise for me to do that, yes, but I was not aware of what else the editor was doing because I didn't look. I just saw, oh source, that's ok. Although I was a little concerned of how reliable it was just by looking at it, I thought that it at least explained the removal (the reason I reverted). The edits were also completely different to that one (which was unexplained content removal) so I don't think it was endorsing their other ones. Best regards, --Ferien (talk) 19:28, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

TheWikiWizard-May 2021
Hello, Ferien! Here is the May 2021 issue of TheWikiWizard.
Wikipedia News
- The Simple English Wikipedia was mentioned in a article online very recently, you can read the article here.
- Meta is looking for Board Election Volunteers you can read up more by following that link.
- The English Wikipedia, has just passed 6,300,000 articles!
Tip of the Month
This tip is one of the many ways to combat spam on Wikipedia:
- On Wikipedia, articles either meet the General Notability Guideline or not. When you come across a new article, it is extremely important to determine if it is a real article, or just a spam article. Start with a search on Google, for reliable sources, if you get none in return, then look at the article for non-NPOV content, also scan the references section in the article to see what sources it uses, and check the 'other languages' section and Wikidata to see if it is on other Wikipedias. If other Wikipedias have the same content and/or a CSD or AfD tag (WP:AFD) it is likely spam or not notable, so you can then nominate it for deletion to get input, remember that CSD criterion does not always apply to these articles depending on the content/contex. Also remember to check for copyright violations via earwig's

Hi Ferien, Can you please guide me on what other information needs to be added to the existing Draft?

- Hello there. @Gajalakshmi Chittibabu: the draft has been deleted because it was not edited for 6 months but it can be restored at WP:REFUND. As I'm not a new page patroller here, I cannot really help you with what needs to be in your draft. Best regards, --Ferien (talk) 07:22, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
edit on the article "Gaurav Chaudary"
Hey you had refused my edit request to change the subscriber amount from 26.3 to 26.7 it seems to me that you have not taken into account the third account he runs called "TG shorts" which has 437k subscribers at the time I'm writing this. So the total subscriber count would amount to 21.3 million + 5 million + 437 thousand which is roughly equal to 26.7 million

mattresses
I dont understand as I write articles about mattresses and I external linked to a mattress company who advises people about all different mattress fillings, the current edit is completely irrelevant — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamespontey (talk • contribs) 20:38, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Jamespontey. Welcome to Wikipedia. I removed your external link addition as:
- We rarely have external links in the body of an article.
- The external link linked to a mattress website. It didn't give any extra information about mattresses.
- If you have any more questions, feel free to reply. If you need any help editing here, again, please let me know. Best regards, --Ferien (talk) 20:41, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Dear Ferien,
Greetings. Since you are a Wikipedia editor, I thought I'd reach out to you to see if you might have time to review my submission: Women Cross DMZ. I submitted it in Feb., 2021, but haven't heard back.

Friday Night Dinner
Hi, Ferien. I don’t believe there are factual errors on the page Friday Night Dinner because there is no information on the series ending, even after the death of Paul Ritter. Sorry if the edit wasn’t constructive though. 91.125.20.93 (talk) 20:01, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

TheWikiWizard-June 2021
Hello, Ferien! Here is the June 2021 issue of TheWikiWizard.
Wikipedia News
- The IRC channels used for Wikipedia have changed, you can read more on it here. While TWW was aware of this in the last issue, we decided to wait and publish this in this issue, when the issue is not as new any more, and more information has been developed.
- There was quick interruption in editing on Wikipedia, that was to test server switching should an emergency happen, more details can be found here.
Humour
- This section was written by CanadianOtaku --つがる Talk to つがる:) 🍁
- Internet Explorer still thinks freenode is the best IRC service!
- It has been proven that editing the article Cheese while eating Cheese is considered a WP:COI.
- This joke has been donated to us from aliens, hopefully they learned UTF-8: £

July 2021
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mochi. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. I just want to note that the Mochi preservation section was tagged as unsourced in July 2020. Please remember that, per WP:BURDEN, Sariel Xilo (talk) 16:08, 14 July 2021 (UTC); edited WP:REDACTED Sariel Xilo (talk) 21:52, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
the burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and it is satisfied by providing an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution
. If you were struggling to find sources, you should have made a note on the talk page and asked for other editors to help. I was only able to find a couple of sources in English. I'm assuming there are more sources in Japanese.
- @Sariel Xilo: This editor (as I have explained) is banned by the Foundation and has gone through my edits to revert me, not the content. As he is WMF-banned, anyone can revert his edits. I will stop now, but this is not a good-faith user who is trying to help the encyclopedia. This is someone who has been editing here (despite being blocked) for many years.

- I dropped a bunch of blocks, but it's whacking a mole. Let me know if you see this again. God it's infantile. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 16:52, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Aston Villa Football Team
Hi, Ferien. Did you know that Aston Villa Football Team might be playing tonight, as I checked the matches this year and it said they were playing tonight, and in the next few days. It might not be broadcasted though, but if they don’t play tonight, they might resume in September according to a spokesman who was in their last match.

I am the former secretary of the legitimate Chief Rabbi of POland. He passed away 10 years ago. Shudrich's page inacurate. He is NOT the CHief Rabbi and never was.

Malay sponge cake: Can we remove the section "Historical origins and similar varieties around the world"?
Or at least DRASTICALLY cut it down?
I didn't come to this article to read the complete history of sponge cake in 16th century Spain or whatever. It's not central to this article, and would be better suited for sponge cake in general, or whatever. 72.76.95.136 (talk) 16:47, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

In relation to the page you reverted about Dana Zzyym, whoever he/she or it is, he/she/it cannot refer to himself/herself/itself using a plural pronoun. If he doesn't identify himself as a man, neither as a woman, he/she/it can use the gender neutral pronoun "it", certainly he/she/it can't use "them", "their" or "they", because he/she/it is an individual not a group of people. So, my edits are pertinent. The paragraph is grammatically incorrect and confusing. This is an improper use of the English language. This bullshit that someone wakes up and decides he wants to be called "them" has to stop. Sam Smith before, Demi Lovato after. I mean Demi Lovato is clearly a biological female, but she wants to be called "them". Enough of this, really. This is a serious encyclopedia, not the Daily Mail. Eventually, even if the following pronouns are not mentioned by any English grammar, ne/nem/nir can be used instead, but definitely not they/them/their. And in case of ne/nem/nir, this should be explained in the article, because no one in the world, except queers know what is about.
Many thanks

- "They" is not just used for talking to a group of people. It can also be used if you don't know what gender someone is. And if someone doesn't identify as male or female, they may use they, which we should respect. Yes, this is a serious encyclopedia and that's exactly why we respect people who use they/them pronouns.
- Calling someone "it" is insulting in my opinion.
- Best regards,

That is what the queers' community invented recently, as well as the pronouns "ne" and "ze". The English grammar says "they" is plural. "It", instead, is neutral, so the grammar says, not me, which is the only thing I care about and you should either. With your censorship you are not enforcing the grammar, you are supporting the stupid idea that someone can be called "they". Please call me hehajhegafe::<<>>hjaferefve___---2345aeafefvefefe next time, and be sure you address me like that, because since I'm special I want to be called hehajhegafe::<<>>hjaferefve___---2345aeafefvefefe. Be sure you pronounce it correctly. Or better, just call me God, because so I decided. Do you realise how ridiculous is to call someone "they"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.108.147.134 (talk) 23:38, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- It's not ridiculous. Using they/them pronouns doesn't take any extra effort to anyone. --Ferien (talk) 10:01, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
Lucas Raymond
It is redundant to claim that Raymond was considered a top prospect in the draft in the sentence immediately following the one stating he was picked fourth overall in the daft. Obviously a 4th overall selection is a top prospect. Thus the redundant sentence should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.13.23.34 (talk) 16:46, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
- Please explain that if you remove the content again. Removing the content with no explanation can look like vandalism. --Ferien (talk) 19:21, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Brad Childress Page
I recently edited the Brad Childress page and you removed it for not being neutral but I think you made a mistake, nothing in there was not factual. Please review again and place it back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.3.213.242 (talk) 18:32, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- I can assure you no mistake was made. That was just your opinion and it's not appropriate for Wikipedia. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 18:35, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Skiyomi
Hello, I saw your edit to Skiyomi's User page; was their global lock removed? I would be very surprised if they obtained that given their actions on UTRS and elsewhere. 331dot (talk) 14:35, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- 331dot, I noticed as they were editing simplewiki. Yep, the global lock was removed, you can see on the meta centralauth, although I've never had any experience with them until today so I don't know how they got unblocked or anything like that. --Ferien (talk) 14:39, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. 331dot (talk) 16:13, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- 331dot: In case you are interested, they have been relocked and I've reverted my edit. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 10:20, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know. I assume that means they resumed their prior behavior. 331dot (talk) 10:23, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah, they were blocked on simplewiki for abusing multiple accounts. --Ferien (talk) 10:24, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

Edit to 'Palm rat'
Hi, I had a message saying you removed links I had added to the entry on 'Palm rat', but I have not edited the page (or indeed looked at it). There are a few messages coming up like this and I'm concerned! It seems as if someone else is doing this, by spoofing my IP(?) and I am getting the blame! How can this happen? What was the nature of the links? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.252.133.134 (talk) 22:15, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello. So by the looks of it, your IP may be shared with other users (for example your IP could be owned by a mobile network and I believe a lot of the time the IP addresses are shared there) and so the messages on your talk page are intended for the people who made the edits, not you. The content added to the article that I reverted was advertising. Kind regards, --Ferien (talk) 22:31, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

- Salman khan 01, did you read the invisible comment and the comment on my talk page? Please give an explanation in the edit summary when you are removing content from a page and here, there appears to be consensus against removing the content so I'd recommend not removing it. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 14:47, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
Vandals
Hi there. I am still pretty green to Wikipedia but love reverting vandalism and giving warnings. Where something is blatant vandalism (today I saw someone write "your mum" and someone else made a BLP photo a mouse) can one go straight to a level 4 warning? Why dont we just immediately block users who do blatant vandalism? Cheers Such-change47 (talk) 14:38, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Such-change47! For vandalism that is really bad we can use level 4im warnings like this one, but most of the time it is good to warn at least once or twice to make sure they are definitely editing in bad faith. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 14:41, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- thank you very much. Such-change47 (talk) 14:43, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Such-change47: Happy to help! Don't hesitate to ask me if you need anything. Happy editing! --Ferien (talk) 14:44, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

Updates to Media Coverage
Hello Ferien, I added some recent press coverage with external sources and it seems they were all remove or not approved. I added the proper citations. Can you please help me better understand what happened so it can be resolved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jneiderman (talk • contribs) 19:13, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Jniederman, I reverted your edits because they were removing content without explanation. Then Beeblebrox reverted your edits because by the looks of it you were adding press releases without context. Please make sure you answer their message on your talk page. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 19:59, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for the response. I apologize for my lack of experience on the platform and hope you can guide me in the proper direction. How should I propose updates to this page that showcase news articles covering the good things happening at the school. I am a teacher at this school and all I want to do is make sure the important and meaningful things happening here are also represented. Jneiderman (talk) 20:11, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Jniederman: Hello, you have a conflict of interest so you are strongly discouraged from editing about the school. If you'd like to edit the page you should use {{request edit}} on the talk page with an explanation of the edit you are planning to make. If you need any more help please let me know.
