Hello, I've made iterative edits - mostly grammar and structure - to the S. Walter Englander article. I noticed you placed the copyedit tag last month. Can you let me know if it looks any better, or what you would suggest/recommend? Thank you greatly.

Hello, GraziePrego!

I am a complete neophyte writing Wikipedia articles, but nevertheless have been trying to clean up, correct, and add to the article on CBS Laboratories, where I worked for several years. I have been adding to it bit by bit, but have just now been informed by a bot, apparently, about significant issues in my last changes.

After following all of the change pages, I now feel that I have understood what I am being asked to change, and why - hopefully you will agree.

Please let me know if I have missed any important items!

Appreciatively,

Richard Johnson

Today, 300 years of Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern, BWV 1! We sang works for (mostly) double choir by Pachelbel, Johann Christoph Bach, Kuhnau/Bach, Gounod and Rheinberger! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:31, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

I have removed the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} tag from :Bouzebal, which you proposed for deletion. reliable sources found and added to article, mindful of WP:BIAS. If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add {{Tlc|proposed deletion}} back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

Hi i have created https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:David_Dancey_Wood

Im trying to do To move a published draft wiki article to mainspace, you need to be an autoconfirmed user (account at least 4 days old with 10 edits). Then, click "More" and "Move", select "Article" as the namespace, confirm the title, and click "Move page"

but i do not have the More button anyware can you help please --Dandel175 (talk) 17:13, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

:Hi there,

:I have added the Articles For Creation template to the draft. This will allow you to submit the article to be reviewed, and then someone can accept it and move it into mainspace.

:Looking at the Draft I don't believe this article is currently suitable for mainspace. The images in the article are listed as being creative commons which I find surprising if they're examples of an artist's work? The writing is also very praising of David and doesn't seem encyclopaedic. If those are fixed up then it may be accepted when you submit. Also make sure the subject is WP:NOTABLE enough. GraziePrego (talk) 01:26, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi thanks for checking the article, I see messages regarding images I have permission for the Artist him self in writing were can I send this to show that I have the Artists Permission to use the images --Dandel175 (talk) 10:08, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

--Rosiestep (talk) 13:19, 30 March 2025 (UTC) via MassMessaging

Would you be able to help me with the rollout of the template? The more editors are involved the faster the job can be completed. Robin S. Taylor (talk) 19:20, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

Hey Mentor !!

Ive added a info thats not mentioned in making the topic look biased against WP:NPOV. So ive reverted it but didnt used proper source so someone noticed it and said about it and ive rectified it through talk page and now another one has removed it without any claim for removal or reason for removal . What should i do now ? Ive provided reliable , credible sources directly . Its clearly breaching neutrality. --ItsTrueNow (talk) 19:53, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

• Following an RfC, administrator elections were permanently authorized on a five-month schedule. The next election will be scheduled soon; see Wikipedia talk:Administrator elections for more information. This is an alternate process to the RfA process and does not replace the latter.
• An RfC was closed with consensus to allow editors to opt-out of seeing "sticky decorative elements". Such elements should now be wrapped in {{t|sticky decoration wrapper}}. Editors who wish to opt out can follow the instructions at WP:STICKYDECO.
• An RfC has resulted in a broad prohibition on the use of AI-generated images in articles. A few common-sense exceptions are recognized.

Hi there, please do not use the term 'Aborigines' as it is widely considered offensive in Australia. Thank you for your well-intentioned edit. Poketama (talk) 08:21, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you for the clarification @Poketama, as a fellow Australian I am aware of that- the bit I was reverting was the edit which introduced incorrect wording- saying there were x thousand "peoples" which wasn't correct as that implies x thousand separate groups, which was not the intended meaning of the sentence.

This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Candidates of the 2026 Victorian state election, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months.

Quit stalking me.

You argue in bad faith, and are contributing absolutely nothing to the discussion. I never claimed that you were Hand That Feels or had the same reasons, so to claim that's what I said is just moronic to the extreme. You said I didn't listen to what editors said, I pointed out that some editors clearly had an agenda as I then proved to you - you then turn round and say thats not you - I never claimed it was.

For the record, it is wrong to oppose me for moral/personal reasons. I would expect you to have known that seeing as you've made (check notes... wow) 11,000 edits in 5 years.

Leave me alone. Icecold (talk) 11:16, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for improving article quality in May. One of mine was Jadwiga Rappé. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:55, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

Hallo!! Uhh do people usually dislike/downvote edit revisions? I corrected the page regarding the "List of wars by death tolls" by removing the Javanese wars, which the last revision had it on the 2nd spot above the mongolian conquest (along with it's Deaths being "0.23 million", no percentage, and no citation), while my edit is the current revision, my edit has been disliked/downvoted 110+ times, is that normal? --The Player (talk) 05:17, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

:Ah I see what you mean- the “-110” is the number of characters you removed from the page, not upvotes or downvotes :) GraziePrego (talk) 05:21, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Greetings!! Please disregard the last question I have asked, since i have researched and found that the numbers indicates that the edit added/removed a number of bytes (corresponding to characters) to the page, my apologies --The Player (talk) 05:21, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
