Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Thank you for
your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from
The Country Wife into
William Wycherley. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere,
Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an
edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and
linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{
copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at
Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. —

Hi Sfjohna, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed' and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned prolific creators of articles where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.
Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.
Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! – Joe ( talk) 14:24, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Danners430 ( talk) 14:07, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

You are correct — there was no noteworthy A. L. Bacharach who wrote in German. The mistake I made was probably that I incorrectly wrote down the publication year of one the German translations of Bacharach's books on music & believed that the erroneous year (because too early) indicated that the German translation was an original work by another A. L. Bacharach — very bad editing on my part. If you want to change the name of the article back to "A. L. Bacharach", then that might be preferable — although I generally prefer full names to names with initials for the titles of Wikipedia pages. Suslindisambiguator ( talk) June 1, 2023

Hi @ Sfjohna,
Almost all of your recent edits to Finnegans Wake were marked as "minor" despite not meeting the narrow, technical Wikipedia definition of WP:MINOR. Please take a quick look! People filter their watchlists based on this criterion. You might be taken as trying to push something through underneath the radar of peer scrutiny—which, why not just avoid?

You are correct — there was no noteworthy A. L. Bacharach who wrote in German. The mistake I made was probably that I incorrectly wrote down the publication year of one the German translations of Bacharach's books on music & believed that the erroneous year (because too early) indicated that the German translation was an original work by another A. L. Bacharach — very bad editing on my part. If you want to change the name of the article back to "A. L. Bacharach", then that might be preferable — although I generally prefer full names to names with initials for the titles of Wikipedia pages. Suslindisambiguator ( talk) June 1, 2023

I noted your excellent contribution to the article on Cobbett. I think you might be interested in my book, Music for the Love of it: Episodes in Amateur Music-Making, which has a chapter about Cobbett, with a lot of new material about the man. The book is intended for a popular audience, so I took out all the citations. But if you need them, I can send you a pdf with all the citations in it.
Thanks for your great work. Ravpapa ( talk) 05:07, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi @ Sfjohna,
Almost all of your recent edits to Finnegans Wake were marked as "minor" despite not meeting the narrow, technical Wikipedia definition of WP:MINOR. Please take a quick look! People filter their watchlists based on this criterion. You might be taken as trying to push something through underneath the radar of peer scrutiny—which, why not just avoid?
(More edit descriptions would also be most welcome.)
Thanks for your interest in and contributions to this quite specialized article!
Cheers, Patrick J. Welsh ( talk) 01:24, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
