Hi GoldRingChip! On behalf of the Birthday Committee, I'd like to wish you a very happy anniversary of the day you made [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/GoldRingChip&dir=prev&limit=1 your first edit] and became a Wikipedian!

Hi. Looking for some help. When using templates for Current US Congress delegations EX: Template:FL-FedRep it still lists current congress as 118th. checked for all states and doing the same. do you know how to change this?

Thanks Tomrtn (talk) 14:16, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

• That template, and the templates for the other states, uses {{tl|Congressional Delegation}}. I've now changed it. —GoldRingChip 15:35, 4 April 2025 (UTC)

While gnoming, I noticed your user-talk archiver is mis-configured. In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:GoldRingChip&diff=prev&oldid=1275953761 this edit], you changed the archive to point to "Example" rather than your own username. DMacks (talk) 03:15, 12 April 2025 (UTC)

• Oh my, what a blunder! {{Thank you}}. —GoldRingChip 13:31, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
• You're welcome! DMacks (talk) 14:28, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
• {{Reply|DMacks}} and just like that, the archiving started working properly again. How, in your gnoming, did you find it?
• Another editor came to WP:HD to figure out why their talk-page archiving wasn't working. It was a similar problem. So I found and am now working my way through :Category:Pages where archive parameter is not a subpage. I also pushed for a change in the config template so that this sort of mistake emits a visible red error message at the template location rather than simply an easily overlooked category tag with an understated name.

I have come across a new editor who has moved complete article talk pages to "talk page archive 1" (or whatever number) but these moves are wiping out the talk page history. I went to their user talk and have asked them not to do any more of these moves so hopefully this editing will stop BUT... Now there are 5 mangled article talk pages - take a look at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Szchalchsz their editing history]. I noticed you had edited Leonid Brezhnev recently, which is why I am asking for some admin help on Talk:Leonid Brezhnev and the 4 other mangled article talk pages:

• Talk:Konstantin Chernenko, Talk:Yuri Andropov, Talk:Nikita Khrushchev, and Talk:Mikhail Gorbachev.

If there are any talk page watchers who are admins hanging around (like maybe {{u|DMacks}}?) please have a go at getting these talk pages (and their histories) back to where they need to be because I have no idea where to start. Thanks in advance, - Shearonink (talk) 02:48, 19 April 2025 (UTC)

In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anne_of_Denmark&diff=prev&oldid=1285777332 this edit] you tried to replace refs with sfn or some such, and were missing a closing }}. Then in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Anne_of_Denmark&diff=next&oldid=1285922961 this edit] you tried to close, but closed badly(?), dropping a whole segment of text at beginning of section Relationship with James. Could you fix that? Do finds on the word "pressure" to locate the problem area. Shenme (talk) 03:12, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

• {{Reply to|Shenme}} Before my edits, much of the text was in markers. In my edits you note here, all I've attempted to do was to swap with {{Efn}}. Regardless, the whole segment of text remains in a note, just not a footnote. I've moved it all out of a note and into the main text, against the unknown intent of the previous editor who had put it in a note. How does it look? —GoldRingChip 12:22, 17 May 2025 (UTC)
