Edit reversion[edit]
Hello Shellwood,
today you reversed my edit on the article Flame Is Burning, where I changed the Russian Kiev (Киев) to the Ukrainian Kyiv (Київ).
Here's four reasons why I would like to see you reverse your reversion:
1) "Kyiv" was used in all official material of the contest
2) Kyiv is a predominantly Ukrainian-speaking area
3) Ukrainian is the only official language of Ukraine List of official languages by country and territory#U
4) The Ukrainian government calls it Kyiv https://www.kmu.gov.ua/en/news/u-kiyevi-vidbulisya-peregovori-delegacij-oboronnih-vidomstv-ukrayini-ta-velikoyi-britaniyi
Please restore my version of the article.

Susan Su[edit]
My partner’s company was doing a background check on Ms Su as she was asking for modelling jobs and found most of her credentials are fraudulent. The most major is that she claims on her social media to be a former Miss Hong Kong. She was a participant in the Miss Hong Kong Pageant but she did not place or receive any titles. This was verified after we contacted the Miss Hong Kong Association. There are other examples but this is the most glaring. Please advise or amend the entry. Hkbunny (talk) 14:14, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Hkbunny: Hi, I'm not an expert on the subject but I can see that the article is poorly sourced, I have added a template to the article to highlight these issues. If you feel you have certain knowledge and references about this I suggest you rewrite the parts that are unsourced or omit them. Shellwood (talk) 17:01, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
Susan Su[edit]
Ok, have made the necessary and pertinent revisions for accuracy. Please have a look. Hkbunny (talk) 17:36, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

A barnstar for you![edit]
| The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar | |
| I tried to get some anti-vandalism but I couldn't because you instantly rolled back anything that was wrong before I even got to the article. Cheers mate :D Mascer (talk) 19:51, 7 November 2018 (UTC) |

Completed. @Shellwood
Salute[edit]
I'm not going to hit you with a barnstar - you must have run out of space on your shelves for them - but I just wanted to doff my cap. I'm pretty new to anti-vandalism, but I've been doing it pretty intensively the last few weeks and there is no editor whose reverts I edit conflict with more often than yours. I must try to get my head around Huggle to see how you do it! Tools notwithstanding, you're a pillar of the community - there'd be a lot more crap all over Wikipedia without you. Hats off! GirthSummit (blether) 23:30, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Girth Summit: Hi and thank you very much for those kind words, your work here deserves recognition as well. I'm starting to look like a christmas tree with all these barnstars on me, anyway I really recommend using Huggle for any recent changes patrol. it makes things a lot easier, but one unfortunate side effect is the risk of reverting good faith edits which is always painful to experience, especially if it scares newcomers away in the process. Shellwood (talk) 09:25, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
Vandalism[edit]
Hi, I noticed you intervened recently on Military history of France to clean off some vandalism, just thought I should notify you about 14.202.133.202 who's been busy at it recently too and should probably get blocked, as it seems to be very much intentional and recurring. Best regards and thank you for all your hard but very much needed work. 109.5.251.46 (talk) 08:39, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
Vandalism[edit]
Hi Shellwood, I found you countering vandalism so fast. In many cases when i was about to rollback vandal you already use to revert them. As i counter vandal through TW are there any other tool which i can use to counter vandalism fast and easily. TheRedBox (Talk) 10:06, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- @TheRedBox: Hi, there are a few tools to use, [1]. I use Huggle, which requires that you have rollback. I suggest you keep reverting vandalism properly for at least a month and then apply for it, provided you are interested in this of course. Shellwood (talk) 10:25, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
Legends about Theoderic the Great[edit]
Please look at this page Legends about Theoderic the Great. is that redirect eligible? Cause ips is repeatedly blanking and redirecting the page. TheRedBox (Talk) 15:41, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- @TheRedBox: I would say no, anyhow the IP seems to have stopped for now. Condsider filing a report to WP:AN3 if the edit warring continues. Shellwood (talk) 16:32, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
@Shellwood: will do that thankyou. TheRedBox (Talk) 16:36, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
Leadenham House[edit]
You reverted my edit to Leadenham House, the reason for which was “removal of out-of-date information”. Your reversal has now made the page once again out-of-date and factually incorrect. The out-of-date information reads: “The present owners are Peter and Henrietta Reeve (divorced). Their son James has established a VW Polo Club in the grounds. [6] In a more recent development the house is available as a wedding venue.[7][8]” I replaced it with “The present owner is Peter Reeve”. This is correct. As a result of the divorce referred to in brackets in the out-of-date entry Peter Reeve is now the sole owner of Leadenham House. The polo club referred to is not in the grounds of Leadenham House but is in the grounds of a different property that is now owned by Henrietta Reeve. My edit is therefore correct and you should undo your reversal. Wikipikitavi (talk) 18:44, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Shellwood: Thanks for explaining this. Shellwood (talk) 19:55, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Shellwood: No need for your understanding... I have removed the whole section as spammy... see edit summary. This place may be a wedding venue, but is it especially notable enough to place it above the myriad of wedding venues... have any notable weddings occurred here? The owners of the house, recently past and present, are non-notable for our encyclopedia. The mention of any of the Reeves has to show their notability with articles presented to be acceptable by this encyclopedia, or multiple, reliable and independent references to show that they deserve one. Thanks. Acabashi (talk) 20:49, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
NPR Newsletter No.15 16 November 2018[edit]
![]() Chart of the New Pages Patrol backlog for the past 6 months. |
Hello Shellwood,
- Community Wishlist Survey – NPP needs you – Vote NOW
- Community Wishlist Voting takes place 16 to 30 November for the Page Curation and New Pages Feed improvements, and other software requests. The NPP community is hoping for a good turnout in support of the requests to Santa for the tools we need. This is very important as we have been asking the Foundation for these upgrades for 4 years.
- If this proposal does not make it into the top ten, it is likely that the tools will be given no support at all for the foreseeable future. So please put in a vote today.
- We are counting on significant support not only from our own ranks, but from everyone who is concerned with maintaining a Wikipedia that is free of vandalism, promotion, flagrant financial exploitation and other pollution.
- With all 650 reviewers voting for these urgently needed improvements, our requests would be unlikely to fail. See also The Signpost Special report: 'NPP: This could be heaven or this could be hell for new users – and for the reviewers', and if you are not sure what the wish list is all about, take a sneak peek at an article in this month's upcoming issue of The Signpost which unfortunately due to staff holidays and an impending US holiday will probably not be published until after voting has closed.
Go here to remove your name if you wish to opt-out of future mailings. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here)18:37, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
