On 14 September 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bork tapes, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that judge Robert Bork's leaked list of video rentals included movies such as Citizen Kane, The Philadelphia Story and Sixteen Candles? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bork tapes. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Bork tapes), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Hey there. Just wanted to open up a discussion section to avoid removing good work without instead fixing it. I disagree that each of the notes needs to be cited, as they are each discussed and cited later in the article. SerAntoniDeMiloni ( talk) 19:43, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

I see that on 24th August 2022 you edited the influences parameter for Steven Pinker. I don't suppose they bothered to tell you, but as part of a massive purge involving at least 3000 articles the influences and influenced parameters were removed by PrimeBot in the last few days. If you have any thoughts about this there is a discussion at /info/en/?search=Template_talk:Infobox_scientist#Influences/influenced_--_abuse_of_power Athel cb ( talk) 12:57, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello again. I've come from Helena Hamerow where you've done some more "condensing". Why have you removed the school from Charles Wesley?? I'll just copy and paste what I've said to you in the past:
Actually, you've made a fair few edits to British biographies that appear to be based of incorrect assumptions. For example, it is not "condensing" to turn All Souls College, Oxford, Faculty of Classics, University of Oxford, St John's College, Oxford, and Brasenose College, Oxford into University of Oxford. This is like condensing University of California, Berkeley and University of California, Santa Cruz into one University of California. Oxford and Cambridge are weird universities: the colleges are (for the most part) independent institutions; and there are many illogical facets, such as "students" of Christ Church, Oxford actually being the academics, or
Master of Arts degrees not being real degrees.
In the UK, we separate education (childhood school; university is not considered a "school") from alma mater which is any/all universities that someone attended (they don't need to have graduated with a degree from them).
Professor has a different meaning in the UK. Someone with the profession of a university teacher is known as an academic or lecturer. A professor is the most senior type of academic, and a title of distinction, it is not an occupation description.
The UK and US (mostly) share a language but there are differences. So please educate yourself before making any more such changes. I'm happy to point you in the right direction, or just have a look at British biographies and other Wiki articles. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 14:27, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
As above, I'm happy to point you in the right direction. This was a good edit for example. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 12:35, 19 October 2023 (UTC)

Not sure I know what the point is of making it smaller, since what dictates width in that infobox is the 26 innings of line score and at least from my perspective, making it smaller just increases whitespace and makes it harder to read. Wehwalt ( talk) 19:24, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi GuardianH, we know each other from higher-ed stuff. You really know your way around Wikipedia. I am no newcomer, myself, with more than 10,000 edits in German and English, but I do have questions from time to time.

Hey GuardianH, I stumbled upon your user page a short while ago — forgive me if it sounds weird, but I think all the stuff you’ve done is just incredible. I was also an Asian-American high schooler from Massachusetts just a short while ago (played a bit of jazz at NEC and All States here too, might be doxxing myself idk lol, maybe I know you?) and I’ve always really liked history (not as rigorous as you, I think) but most of my edits are just me carrying over DOY stuff from other language DOY pages (like Japanese or Chinese) because I don’t feel like I have enough time in college to pore over academic texts. I’d love to hear what your reading/writing process is for Wikipedia as a presumably busy student so I can do more (right now I feel more like I’m filling holes as I see them instead of spending time researching topics and making new pages about them).
P.S. Also, if you end up attending Harvard or MIT I’d love to meet up sometime 😎 Marcustcii ( talk) 14:47, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi GuardianH, what an impressive userpage you've got- you must have a very broad reading list with the topic interests you display and have made contributions to.
I want to thank you not only for your "thanks" on my recent edits (boy howdy, removing that Stossel LISTSPAM was actually quite a feat on the mobile app, which I learned doesn't scroll when you "drag-highlight," lol. I was in too deep to give up, though), but for all the work you do here. As I just posted on ElKevbo's page, the one positive for me in bumping into the disruptive editing from Summerdays1 has been uncovering contributors like yourselves, who are protecting the encyclopedia from sometimes-subtle BOOSTERISM in areas with higher-than-usual "drive-by" edits. You are awesome, and your tireless work is appreciated.
I am a habitual copyeditor (I find it so relaxing, which I recognize might be weird lol) so if you ever come across articles which need text clean-up or just review, and don't have the time or inclination yourself, feel free to tag me in to have a look! Thanks again and happy editing :-D ~Chelsea aka Chiselinccc ( talk) 17:22, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
Hello,
Can you explain the reason for this edit. You failed to provide an edit comment the last two times you made this change, so I'm not sure the reason. Adding hobbies doesn't seem like a forbidden thing here? In my opinion, I don't think it's trivia, but helping to define the person's character and interests (a la Bill Clinton playing a saxophone). -- Engineerchange ( talk) 15:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello GuardianH. I noticed you deleted (reverted) my request on your talk page that you use
edit summaries to explain your reasoning for edits, or to provide a description of what the edits change, because summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edits will be misunderstood. Of course, like your edits to
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison your summaries could have been
brief.
First, while you may freely remove comments from your talk page,
archiving is preferred. Second, the addition of a notable partner and the type of law firm to
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison do not appear to be
Gnome activities which include “improving punctuation, fixing typos, correcting poor grammar, creating redirects, adding categories, repairing broken links, and many other …repetitive tasks”. This is further evidenced by your not ticking the "This is a minor edit" box before saving each edit, using such edit designation being inappropriate under
minor edit requirements. Saying your inaction was just some
Gnome from you, doesn’t make it so. Such is governed by
WikiGnome not personal preference.
Rather than deleting a comment that you don’t like, I suggest you revisit the use of
edit summaries and consider leaving them when
Gnome and
minor edit requirements don’t apply. Regards,
Quaerens-veritatem (

04:02, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
repetitive but still important tasks( WP:GNOME), and that was one of them — adding onto a list and a word onto the lede. The gnome tasks you chose above is few and unrepresentative, and you took the examples for Wikignomes as being strictly exclusive even though the passage says differently ([Gnomes do]
many other …repetitive tasks). This is among many
repetitive tasks. The reason for adding onto a list is obvious, as is adding a subject descriptor, so an edit summary was forewent as per WP:FIES. GuardianH ( talk) 04:30, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I am a habitual copyeditor (I find it so relaxing, which I recognize might be weird lol) so if you ever come across articles which need text clean-up or just review, and don't have the time or inclination yourself, feel free to tag me in to have a look! Thanks again and happy editing :-D ~Chelsea aka Chiselinccc ( talk) 17:22, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
Hello,
Can you explain the reason for this edit. You failed to provide an edit comment the last two times you made this change, so I'm not sure the reason. Adding hobbies doesn't seem like a forbidden thing here? In my opinion, I don't think it's trivia, but helping to define the person's character and interests (a la Bill Clinton playing a saxophone). -- Engineerchange ( talk) 15:08, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I think the best alternative here would be to remove some of the fluff like "avid" and "many", and state the likely factual statements without much color— I agree! This definitely works best. GuardianH ( talk) 22:01, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I spotted an abusive sock account. So I started a discussion about the abusive account at
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Single-purpose account devoted to attacking GuardianH.--

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Economic repression in the Soviet Union, to which you have significantly contributed, is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or if it should be deleted.
The discussion will take place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Economic repression in the Soviet Union (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion.

Hello GuardianH. I noticed you deleted (reverted) my request on your talk page that you use
edit summaries to explain your reasoning for edits, or to provide a description of what the edits change, because summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edits will be misunderstood. Of course, like your edits to
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison your summaries could have been
brief.
First, while you may freely remove comments from your talk page,
archiving is preferred. Second, the addition of a notable partner and the type of law firm to
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison do not appear to be
Gnome activities which include “improving punctuation, fixing typos, correcting poor grammar, creating redirects, adding categories, repairing broken links, and many other …repetitive tasks”. This is further evidenced by your not ticking the "This is a minor edit" box before saving each edit, using such edit designation being inappropriate under
minor edit requirements. Saying your inaction was just some
Gnome from you, doesn’t make it so. Such is governed by
WikiGnome not personal preference.
Rather than deleting a comment that you don’t like, I suggest you revisit the use of
edit summaries and consider leaving them when
Gnome and
minor edit requirements don’t apply. Regards,
Quaerens-veritatem (

repetitive but still important tasks( WP:GNOME), and that was one of them — adding onto a list and a word onto the lede. The gnome tasks you chose above is few and unrepresentative, and you took the examples for Wikignomes as being strictly exclusive even though the passage says differently ([Gnomes do]
many other …repetitive tasks). This is among many
repetitive tasks. The reason for adding onto a list is obvious, as is adding a subject descriptor, so an edit summary was forewent as per WP:FIES. GuardianH ( talk) 04:30, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
Greetings @ GuardianH
Hi, I am User:Bookku, On Wikipedia I engage in, finding information and knowledge gap areas in Wikipedia and promoting expansion of related drafts and articles, and also facilitate some discussions. Came across your user profile from related changes to MOS:LEGAL since you may have made edits to Law related articles. Many WP users are not aware of MOS:LEGAL.
I am looking requesting inputs at WT:MOS/LEGAL to begin one more round of discussion to update Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Legal#Guidelines if the topic would interest you. Thanks Bookku ( talk) 09:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
