I didn't see the Barbara Snellenburg article before you deleted it, but how is the AFD closed after only one week, where the only contributor already has a topic ban from creating AFDs because of their lack of competence, and is notorious for voting delete based on their own beliefs, rather than Wikipedia policy? Shouldn't it be at best a relist - especially given the previous AFD had four participants of mixed opinions. Nfitz ( talk) 23:59, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
Did you mean to close this as "delete"? I was going to, but thought I would stick a "keep"-ish !vote on the end to get a relist, as there seem to be some sources that haven't been discussed. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:43, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi,
I hope i am doing this right. My first talk!
In article on Iolaus ( /info/en/?search=Iolaus ), there is a curious non sequitur:
"Heracles gave his wife, Megara, age thirty three, to Iolaus, then only sixteen years old[5] – ostensibly because the sight of her reminded him of his murder of their three children. They had a daughter, Leipephilene. He was one of the Heraclidae.[6]"
Now, reference 6 refers to the rejuvenation of Iolaus, and makes no reference to Leipehilene. But, the reason I am writing, rather than just edit thr following apparent mistake, or unclear reference, is the fact that the Heraclidae (-idae is a patronymic suffix for "son of") were male heirs, not daughters.
I feel this is a mistake since Leipephilene can not be an Heraclidos and, if "He" refers to Iolaus, that's incorrect also since he was a friend, not descendant of Heracles. Or maybe I misunderstood Ovid.
I tried to look at history (am new to this too) to write a talk message to person who wrote the above but was unsuccessful.

Hello , Question 1. The map I believed would help readers learn of the original location of the first Sinfonia Latina Question 2. Dieppa was 15 years old when he convinced the production group to change the show . Comment 3. "Renowitsky " making it just a reference is fine with me . He was a well known journalist in Colombia . still alive 102 years old .
What else in your opinion needs fixing prior to resubmission.? Thank you many times over for your response. Deanna Coakley ( talk) 20:01, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
Hello! I found you through this article over here of Wikipedia administrators willing to provide copies of deleted articles.
I very much need your help. A few months ago, when I first created my account, it was mainly to work on this page ( List of attacks related to secondary schools). I essentially kept on coming back to the article over the course of a few weeks and made improvements to the grammar, spelling, errors content, and added entries every time. It was changes that objectively just improved the quality of the page.
However, because I was new to Wikipedia, I was stupidly unfamiliar with the rules. So for a few added entities (For ex. the Ugandan School Fire), I copy/pasted the description from pre-existing news articles. I now completely understand this is totally unacceptable and wrong, and I would never do it today. The admin who saw this rightfully reverted the pages, but unfortunately ALL the changes from the past few weeks (90% of which were fine, some of which weren’t even from me) got undone.
I wish to properly re-add the information to the page, but in order to do so I needed access to the 15:52, 21 April 2020 edition of the page (the one lasted edited by Rodw). I will then go through the page and compare it with the currently existing version, and 100% properly re-add the appropriate changes. I believe the only way to get that access is to have you email it to me. The content that I added on the page was legitimately good, I just made a mistake from my inexperience at the time. The quality of the page shouldn’t suffer because I made a very dumb mistake.
Thank you and best wishes, BorderRegions ( talk) 18:43, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, 78.26. I appreciate the comments and edits that you made on this page today: /info/en/?search=In_the_Air_Tonight
I am relatively new at editing Wikipedia pages. I haven't done much of this.
On the other hand, I do have a Ph.D. and I have been a professor for about 15 years.
I appreciate your support. Please help me understand why user "Keckel" is making emotional comments about my edit to this page. I do not understand why "Keckel" is upset about this contribution. I also do not understand how to resolve a conflict like this.
Do we ask a Wikipedia moderator to get involved?
I would welcome some advice/suggestions, please.
I welcome your help. Thank you for considering.
P.S. I do not know the twins mentioned in the citation. I simply read about this phenomenon in the New York Times and also observed this video on social media, and it got me interested to learn more.

It's really cute to archive a page when we're in the middle of a discussion, so I have to come here to continue rather than wait for another one of your magical appearances into my discussions. I wondered if you could answer a couple questions to save all three of us a lot of time—time being the most important currency mankind possesses. 1) Is your Canadian friend going to revert every discography I work on? 2) Is it civil to refuse to answer questions that pertain directly to the subject at hand? 3) Should I go ahead and delete every discography on Wikipedia that's unsourced? Why or why not? It's all the same to me, because I don't have an agenda. I can go back to working Ellen James Society.

Hey there, you reverted my edit on Vee-Jay Records and I see now that my edit was indeed incorrect - however, certainly the article must then be wrong when it says 'Ted Jarrett's Champion Records', right?

Hi ! I fresh started on Wikipedia earlier this week. Before today, I wrote 2 articles, but they had to be in draft space but, I wrote articles before this, so I know what rules make a good article. Now I do not have to write drafts any more since I passed the 4 days and 10 edits rule with this account. Would you recommend me to move the articles into the article space ?

If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link.

Hello. In my opinion, the status of the unrecognized Republic of Artsakh article is incorrect. If the state does not recognize it, the country to which it belongs must also be written in its status. For example, unrecognized Abkhazia, South Ossetia, and Transnistria are not like Arsakh in the article. Arsakh's status was written by three non- UN member states. Sorry, is this important? Does it matter? However, they are unrecognized separatist organizations. Even four countries have recognized the independence of those separatist organizations. But Arsakh was not recognized by any state. Excuse me, why isn't the Republic of Artsakh article the same as the 3 unrecognized states article? Don't you think this is a double standard? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sword313 ( talk • contribs) 08:01, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

I know why you want to add catalog numbers to albums. It interests you. But you realize that Wikipedia doesn't exist solely for you or for record collectors. That would be a tiny readership. There are about 350 million people in America and 7.5 billion people in the world. It would be foolish to make a rule or follow a process in an encyclopedia that marginalizes most of those people. The truth is, most people are not interested in catalog numbers or matrix numbers or the minutiae of collectors, and when they see them it looks like gibberish fancruft. I was taught in school many times: Know your audience, write for the reader. Your claim that catalog numbers are encyclopedic is self-serving. I know you won't like hearing that, but I also know that you are mature enough to accept the truth and the possibility that you could be wrong. There needs to be consistency from article to article both in form and content. That's true of all kinds of encyclopedias. You'll notice that the other 99% of jazz articles exclude catalog numbers, as do the other 99% of people who work on jazz articles. Should we make a special case for you and a few of your friends? That really would be undemocratic and impractical and contrary to the goals, purposes, and methods of Wikipedia, which exists for all readers, not merely for people who contribute. These facts are easy to overlook. Interacting with IP editors hasn't exactly made me a great lover of humanity.
One other thing. This here? "In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary" is bullshit. It's fake niceness. Most of the time I leave edit summaries. If I don't, it's because the change is self-evident. You should know that after seeing my edits for five years. This part here? "If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored" is bullshit. It's fake niceness. It's arrogant, condescending, and paternalistic. It assumes I have no clue what I'm doing, but I'm getting this bogus reassurance to avoid worry. Oh, thank you thank you. This part here? "If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox" is similar, but throws in the assumption that I'm a child, with the neat analogy to the WP sandbox. In none of my interactions have I talked to people this way. I don't send people boilerplate text. On Talk pages...I... talk. I ask questions, I answer questions, I analyze. You know. Talk. How dare I, right? Although I admit it's faintly absurd to expect people to treat me with the decency with which I treat them, I will very likely continue in that fashion, privileging honesty, directness, plain speech, common sense, and progress, and following the rules.

Hello. In my opinion, the status of the unrecognized Republic of Artsakh article is incorrect. If the state does not recognize it, the country to which it belongs must also be written in its status. For example, unrecognized Abkhazia, South Ossetia, and Transnistria are not like Arsakh in the article. Arsakh's status was written by three non- UN member states. Sorry, is this important? Does it matter? However, they are unrecognized separatist organizations. Even four countries have recognized the independence of those separatist organizations. But Arsakh was not recognized by any state. Excuse me, why isn't the Republic of Artsakh article the same as the 3 unrecognized states article? Don't you think this is a double standard? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sword313 ( talk • contribs) 08:01, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
Hello. Thanks for the reply. Yes, this is my big mistake. I shouldn't have edited. Sword313 ( talk) 04:07, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
I know why you want to add catalog numbers to albums. It interests you. But you realize that Wikipedia doesn't exist solely for you or for record collectors. That would be a tiny readership. There are about 350 million people in America and 7.5 billion people in the world. It would be foolish to make a rule or follow a process in an encyclopedia that marginalizes most of those people. The truth is, most people are not interested in catalog numbers or matrix numbers or the minutiae of collectors, and when they see them it looks like gibberish fancruft. I was taught in school many times: Know your audience, write for the reader. Your claim that catalog numbers are encyclopedic is self-serving. I know you won't like hearing that, but I also know that you are mature enough to accept the truth and the possibility that you could be wrong. There needs to be consistency from article to article both in form and content. That's true of all kinds of encyclopedias. You'll notice that the other 99% of jazz articles exclude catalog numbers, as do the other 99% of people who work on jazz articles. Should we make a special case for you and a few of your friends? That really would be undemocratic and impractical and contrary to the goals, purposes, and methods of Wikipedia, which exists for all readers, not merely for people who contribute. These facts are easy to overlook. Interacting with IP editors hasn't exactly made me a great lover of humanity.
One other thing. This here? "In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary" is bullshit. It's fake niceness. Most of the time I leave edit summaries. If I don't, it's because the change is self-evident. You should know that after seeing my edits for five years. This part here? "If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored" is bullshit. It's fake niceness. It's arrogant, condescending, and paternalistic. It assumes I have no clue what I'm doing, but I'm getting this bogus reassurance to avoid worry. Oh, thank you thank you. This part here? "If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox" is similar, but throws in the assumption that I'm a child, with the neat analogy to the WP sandbox. In none of my interactions have I talked to people this way. I don't send people boilerplate text. On Talk pages...I... talk. I ask questions, I answer questions, I analyze. You know. Talk. How dare I, right? Although I admit it's faintly absurd to expect people to treat me with the decency with which I treat them, I will very likely continue in that fashion, privileging honesty, directness, plain speech, common sense, and progress, and following the rules.

On 18 November 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article None But One, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Jean Ritchie formed her own record label "out of self-defense" following distribution problems with None But One? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/None But One. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, None But One), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
