I may even add some whole new ones at some point. anyway, feel free to comment. thanks!!

This is my second day on Wikipedia, and I would like to be adopted by you. I show interest in joining the Counter-Vandalism Unit and copy-editing. If you agree then ping me on my talk page! SuperGoose007 (Honk!) 15:36, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

- 1. How experienced with editing are you on a scale of 1-10?
- 2. Have you ever created any articles before? (If so, please link them using

- 3. Have you ever vandalised Wikipedia before?
- I look forward to your answer, and thanks for asking to be adopted! Littlecat456(mail)(.exe) 07:22, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Littlecat456:
- 1. I would say I am experienced with editing Wikipedia at a 6/10. I mostly revert vandalism and do copy editing, but I have not added any references to any articles yet,
- 2. No, I have not created any articles yet.
- 3. I have not vandalized Wikipedia, in fact, I have actually reverted vandalism before.
- Again, thank for willing to adopt me! SuperGoose007 (Honk!) 15:06, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

I am protecting my language
How is it that protecting my language by putting the official and national language of my country Malaysia is vandalism? Chinese and Tamil are not official languages of Malaysia and they have no status within the constitution of my country. The Jawi script while not official has constitutional status and can be used alongside Latin in writing Malay while Chinese and Tamil does not have that status.
I am not vandalizing anything, I'm just fixing what needs to be fixed. Putting Chinese/Tamil names which has no history in those towns is like Germany putting Turkish names in every German town just because there's Turks there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.51.150.128 (talk) 13:22, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Wiki "Adopt-a-User" scheme
Hello there. I might as well get straight to the point; I'm new to Wikipedia and, well, wanna get better at using it, like learning all the markup and the annoying templates that I'm fairly sure are just created to piss people off. I genuinely don't have a clue how Wikipedia works, truth be told I don't even know if this is the right place for me to be messaging you, or how and where I'll receive a reply from you, but I hope I'll figure it out. Awaiting your reply, LikeDrinkingPoison (talk) 11:09, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- LikeDrinkingPoison, I’d be happy to take you under my wing. Wikipedia is a huge place, but with my help, you’ll understand everything like it’s on the back of your hand.
- First of all, have you created any articles before? Littlecat456💬(.log) 11:22, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
- Littlecat456, Nope, I've thought about creating an article on a few things I was interested in but didn't have articles, like, for instance, music albums, but I knew I wouldn't be able to create one as I have literally no idea how to sort all the templates and references and images out. So far, all I've done is just basic editing, fixing grammatical errors and adding references.
- Littlecat456 Even at this point, I have no idea whether this is the right place for me to be messaging you or if there's a dedicated place for direct messages, I'm just crossing my fingers I'm messaging in the right place
- @LikeDrinkingPoison: You’ve come to the right place! User talk pages are the main place to discuss things with other users, and don’t worry, i can teach you. Also, please remember to sign your messages with ~~~~ so people know who said what, and when it was said. Again, i’m happy to take you in. If you have a discord account, my username and tag should be near the top of the page, under “Other ways to contact me”, as i am more active on there. Thanks, and have a good day.

- Littlecat456 I was doxxed on Discord recently and don't want to use it for some time, unfortunately. The next best thing I have for communication is Instagram DMs, if that's fine by you. If it is, then you can message me at @katherine_28563 on Instagram, if not, then I'm afraid we'll have some issues with conversation. LikeDrinkingPoison (talk) 16:46, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- LikeDrinkingPoison, ah. I don’t have an instagram account, i prefer reddit and discord. I’m sorry to hear you got doxxed. Best wishes. Littlecat456💬(.log) 06:53, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- Littlecat456 Hello once again! Its been a while but I've decided I might as well decide to get back to this Adopt a User scheme eventually, so I've began using Discord again. However, my attempts at trying to send you a friend request has constantly failed; I've checked for spelling mistakes, numerical errors in the ID but I'm certain it doesn't work at this point. Maybe you've changed your Discord name? Either way, if you do want to take me under your wing, I'd be very thankful. Cheers. LikeDrinkingPoison (talk) 22:57, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
- LikeDrinkingPoison, i changed my discord tag.
- It’s fixed now. Littlecat456💬(.log) 12:41, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

New request using The Userbox Requestinator 5000
Hey, any chance you could make a userbox that links to the page the box is on?
For example, if I put it on my page, it links to my page.
Text can be whatever, but preferably "Were you looking for this user?" with the link on "This User".
Thanks!

- Just some random dude with a pc, it wouldn’t work.
- Here’s an example.
- This link links to this page. As you can see, you are not able to use this link.Littlecat456💬(.log) 14:17, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- dang, never thought of that. Perhaps it would be possible to use a redirect on my page? A normal peep (talk) 14:21, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
request for userbox
the 'longer box' should say "this user loves dominic harrison" and if you could find a picture of him, that would be great. i don't know how to upload one here, sorry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoongi'slefteyebrow (talk • contribs) 13:26, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Question about a reverted edit
Hey, I know you have nothing to do with what I'm going to ask you, but since you're on the mentor page I figured maybe you could help as I really don't know who else I could ask. So the problem is that my edits keep getting reverted by the ClueBott (see here). However, reporting it as a false positive would take way too long until it gets reviewed and since I'm still pretty new, I might have made a mistake. I have no clue what I did wrong though, so I wanted to ask you if maybe you find something I did wrong or if not, what I could try to do then. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 22:33, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- @CanePlayz (Jacob): Hmm, it must be a false positive, there seems to be nothing wrong with adding some editor comments into the article, try using the {{Void}} template instead.
- If that doesn’t work, then let me know, and I’ll submit the false positive for you. Littlecat456💬(.log) 12:48, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Littlecat456: Hey, thanks for your response. I'll try adding the line with the different template later. However, I'm not quite sure if that's even what caused the issue, because one time my edits were reverted by a user because of "missing references." The paragraphs where I was accused of that were also deleted in the edit I mentioned before, so if you want to check that, you can also see that on the edit above. It would be very kind if you could check that so I at least know if it was caused by the hidden note or a reference issue. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 16:46, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
- Edit @Littlecat456: (doing this here because I'm not allowed to edit any history ont alk pages, right? Also I forgot to mention that I already submitted a false positive, it's not the process that's the problem for me, it's much more the time it takes to get checked. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 16:48, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
- @CanePlayz (Jacob): References are a thing every article needs, it shows people where you got your information from. If it doesn’t have any references, then how are people supposed to know the information you added is trustworthy? Here are some helpful pages to get you familiarised with references: Referencing for beginners & Reliable sources. Littlecat456💬(.log) 10:42, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Littlecat456: Yeah thanks for the tips but since I already have a lot of experience from other wikis, I know about that. That's also why I thought I did everything correctly regarding references and why I was wondering that someone rolled back my edits with the note that I did something wrong regarding refernces. And in the end that's also why I've asked you, if maybe you can tell me what exactly I did wrong in the edit I've linked to above. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 20:21, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- @CanePlayz (Jacob): Well then, I see nothing wrong. It is most definitely a false positive. Littlecat456💬(.log) 16:52, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Littlecat456: Yeah, thanks for looking into that and helping me. I've reported it as a false positive and redone the edit, this time it didn't get reverted so I'm good now. CanePlayz (Jacob) (talk) 08:47, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
