City proper[edit]

Hi I noticed you added Sydney to the list of largest city proper. Unforunately, Sydney has only 200,000 people in the city proper, so does not meet the cut off for this list. See City of Sydney for details. Mattximus (talk) 23:41, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Discretionary sanctions alert for articles and content relating to post-1932 American politics and articles[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Sockpuppet investigation[edit]

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jean-Francois Gariepy, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

To anyone who sees my page, please note that the SPI case they filed cleared me, but Ewen Douglas, himself was blocked as a sock of Rockypedia. The irony is delish Nate Hooper (talk) 17:26, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

2019 Turkish offensive into north-eastern Syria[edit]

Hi there I'm Foxterria. I just wanted to say thank you for your contributions to the 2019 Turkish offensive into north-eastern Syria page. If you could link your sources for the map underneath the gif on the page, that'd be great (I understand you probably use liveuamap, as that's the probably the most depiction of the war as it is). Thanks! —Preceding undated comment added 12:14, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

No worries, mate. I just added the sources in said article. I'm not 100% sure if I did it right, I just listed the 3 main sources I use, but obviously that exact gif won't be found in any of them, because it's made by me and a friend. We just use those sources to make it. Is there a way to say that or is what I did okay? @Foxterria: Nate Hooper (talk) 13:12, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah it should be algds. So long as the sources for the material are there, there shouldn't be any issue. @Nate Hooper: Foxterria 15:35, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

November 2019[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, you may be blocked from editing. Yelling about censorship is not an effective way to "win" a content dispute or to have a draft accepted. You have already been notified of discretionary sanctions. Robert McClenon (talk) 07:07, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Robert McClenon: Robert, I never used the word "censor" or "censorship" or any other derivative of those words on Nick's submission page. The only edit I can see that used that word was by a user with an IP address of 123.208.221.134. That is not my IP address. I can see how you may have confused that with my edit, but it's really important to ensure that you check which user made what edits before accusing them of doing wrong. Nate Hooper (talk) 16:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Draft:Nick Fuentes. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Doug Weller talk 12:27, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: Doug, like I said before, I didn't make the edit which used the words "biased" and "censoring." Someone else made it. See my reply above. Has nobody even checked the article history? Nate Hooper (talk) 16:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Self-trouting. I've no idea how I managed that - misread the edit summary for your edit. I thought I'd check it, I'm pretty painstaking normally. Many apologies. Doug Weller talk 16:30, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doug Weller: Thanks for saying that Doug. To be fair to you, the guy who made the edit didn't sign it and it was just a title with nothing underneath. So, with my signed statement added, I can see how it would be easy to mistake the whole thing for my post. But yes, it is important to double check these things, just to make sure Nate Hooper (talk) 16:37, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Don't accuse other editors of censorship or bias[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Bacondrum. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Draft:Nick_Fuentes that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

@Bacondrum: I never accused anyone of bias on the Nick Fuentes talk page. Neither the words "bias" or "censor" or any derivative of those words were added by me. Nate Hooper (talk) 16:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"You are biased and censoring a legit entry" and "You have no integrity" 08:21, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
This is a particularly egregious personal attack. It's been removed as per guidelines. Please don't attack other editors. Bacondrum (talk) 05:04, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Bacondrum: I didn't post that. That was posted by someone who has an IP address of 123.208.221.134. That is not my IP address. Bacondrum, please just check the history of the page. When I told Doug about this, he went back, checked the history and saw that it was not me who made those posts and he apologized. To see his response, just look at the messages above you on this page. He did the right thing. After you see it's not me can you please cross out your first message and apologize to me? Nate Hooper (talk) 01:43, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's true - though it does look like your comment, it is not. Sorry mate. Bacondrum (talk) 21:15, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Conversion request, regarding yet another Afghanistan roadmap.[edit]

Hello. I’ve got the code fleshed out for Afghanistan, using the transparent roadmap and everything works perfectly. But the roads themselves are too blurry. This is my fault: I used antialiasing in the creation of the roadmap, a step that proved unnecessary. So I’m submitting another map to you for you to vectorize, like the two you did before. I’ve also reduced opacity on this one to 50% as an experiment to see if reducing opacity will make the roads not completely obscure borders and rivers, so don’t be alarmed if the roads look half-transparent.

When you are finished converting the map, please update the file at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Afghanistan_Road_Map_Overlay.svg by simply uploading a new version. That way, the system will automatically update the Taliban Insurgency template map page. TheMapLurker (talk) 04:37, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

August 2020[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:White genocide conspiracy theory are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

Rittenhouse talk heading[edit]

The section title you used in this edit is worded a bit oddly and I'd like to clarify before it auto-archives. Did you mean to say that the shootings are from Rittenhouse? Read another way, it could be interpreted as an edit request from Rittenhouse himself. –dlthewave 13:15, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dlthewave: Oh yes, I could see how it may be ambiguous, I meant the former. I have no contact from him, haha. Nate Hooper (talk) 13:50, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I thought that was the case, just wanted to make sure. I went ahead and changed the heading to make that more clear. –dlthewave 15:18, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

August 2022[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. I think you've been around long enough to know that this is not okay. Please provide reliable sources to support your claims, and take heed of the talk page discussions which already cover this topic. adamstom97 (talk) 11:14, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
