ok i understand that but if google displays only the first sentence then how so many people have more than 1 sentence below their name on the webpage for example Shawn Corey Carter, known professionally as Jay-Z, is an American rapper, songwriter, record executive, businessman, media proprietor, and record producer. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential hip-hop artists in history these are 2 sentences — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shreyas2710 ( talk • contribs) 17:13, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello, again. Pointing out the obvious fact that my signature is quite similar to yours, except for the fact that the color and name is changed, I would like to ask if this is fine? Since I'm fairly new to Wikipedia and custom signatures are definitely not my cup of tea. Senator LEVI 06:30, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
Hi Gerald, Thanks for reviewing. Regarding citation , Would you explain what a 'lead' is please ? And also, an example of a statement where I don;t currently have citation ? Many thanks.

Elder's Pen ( talk) 13:58, 12 January 2021 (UTC) Well, Gerald, I have now ready all your recommendations, and I still have NO CLUE as to what your problem is. I removed the first line that said the MOVIE, NOT MY SYNOPSIS, WAS BASED ON A BOOK . . . and published that again . . . and again it was removed. Who did that? YOU??? I showed you very clearly why my description of complex emotions is NOT SUBJECTIVE and if you still think you are right I think you should consult with some philosophers in the field of phenomenology about the meaning and usage of the words SUBJECTIVE and OBJECTIVE . . .if a man is approaching a woman he is attracted to with intent to get to know her, our ability to pick this up in our society is NOT a SUBJECTIVE evaluation of his movements in 3-D space, or an evaluation of "objective" words which we "subjectively" evaluate as meaning . . ."interest in this woman". But you seem stuck in this mode. After I removed the first sentence which confused your stupid robot, Lugnutz, there is NO REASON to reject this simple benign description. I have read all the examples you give me and there the plots are given to the nth degree . . . almost the whole story is described. I tried not to be a "spoiler" revealing the end of the movie. Nevertheless, let me remind you of the guidelines for THEMES.
"Themes are unifying or dominant ideas and motifs in a film's elements (such as plot, dialogue, photography, and sound) conveying a position or message about life, society, and human nature. Most themes are implied rather than explicitly stated, regardless of whether their presence is the conscious intent of the producer, writer, or director. Inclusion of a treatment of a film's themes—well-sourced and cited to avoid original research—is encouraged since an article's value to a reader and its real-world context will be enhanced. A separate section is not required if it is more appropriate to place the material in the Production or reception sections."
THERE IS NOTHING IN MY DESCRIPTIONS OF THE THEMES THAT VIOLATES ANY OF THIS. So please explain to me: are YOU the person rejecting my piece? How old are you? How much education do you have? And tell me EXACTLY, as you have not done, what the problem is. Secondly, if you have a superior supervisor, can I approach them. You must understand I am not assuming I am being attacked personally. I am distressed at the "1984" and "Brave New World" control of the most simple and benign of feelings and perceptions that are being Dys-ed here. I do appreciate the human engagement with you; I deeply DO NOT appreciate the evaluation by a STUPID AI ROBOT!!! So, I look forward to hearing some rational and well-argued (not vague instructions like "do it like so and so does it there"). There is no similarity.
I noticed that you placed a Wikinews template in the middle of an article in this edit. Per the documentation at {{ Wikinews}}, this should not be done. {{u| Sdkb}} talk 16:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi, as the nominator you are not allowed to change your hook in prep. We can discuss it here, or you can post your complaints on the DYK talk page.
Here is your original hook: ... that
children's book
See You in the Cosmos was not initially written as a children's book, with there being adult themes throughout?
To be honest, the grammar in the hook is terrible. It's better to use an
active verb than a poorly constructed
gerund like there being
. But I started by getting rid of the repetitive language and changed it to: ... that the
children's book
See You in the Cosmos was not initially written as such, with there being adult themes throughout?
Then I realized that as such
sounds more literary than engaging, so I changed it to: ... that the
children's book
See You in the Cosmos was not initially written for youth, as it had adult themes throughout?
As I said, I don't think the hook is very good at all. But if that's the hook angle you want, what is wrong with the last incarnation? Yoninah ( talk) 17:56, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Gerald Waldo Luis!
My name is Daniel, and I’m a senior at Harvard University currently writing an undergraduate thesis about Wikipedia. I’m particularly interested in how the Wikipedia community decides what facts are relevant and/or notable enough to warrant inclusion on a particular article — especially in regards to articles on contentious topics.
I noticed that you’ve been quite active editing the “COVID-19 pandemic” article over the past few months. So, would you mind if I send you a few questions (via email or right here) about your work editing that article, and the approach that you take? I’d really love to hear from you.
Thanks so much! -- Dalorleon ( talk) 16:18, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello. Can you please tell me why you did delete my section "Community" for MSFS2020? Do you think community is not relevant for this game? Or can you tell me a wikipedia rule I have broken with my writing? Please explain yourself. AndreAdrian ( talk) 20:04, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
Please see note on your DYK review. The grammar in the hook is not acceptable. Yoninah ( talk) 22:19, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Gerald Waldo Luis!
My name is Daniel, and I’m a senior at Harvard University currently writing an undergraduate thesis about Wikipedia. I’m particularly interested in how the Wikipedia community decides what facts are relevant and/or notable enough to warrant inclusion on a particular article — especially in regards to articles on contentious topics.
I noticed that you’ve been quite active editing the “COVID-19 pandemic” article over the past few months. So, would you mind if I send you a few questions (via email or right here) about your work editing that article, and the approach that you take? I’d really love to hear from you.
Thanks so much! -- Dalorleon ( talk) 16:18, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
