I submitted a request for semi-protection for the Hamill House page after issues with vandalism and anonymous edits. Could you help with this? Thenewclassic1 ( talk) 04:04, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
I'm kind of confused as to why you mass-removed several reliable sources in this edit without any explanation beyond the edit summary "ce". I personally would interpret that edit summary as "copy edits", which generally involve fixing grammar errors and misspellings – not blanking commentary sourced to major newspapers like The Sydney Morning Herald and The Guardian. I think a discussion on Talk:Mansplaining is in order before these sources are removed. If you think it's undue emphasis or something, we can come to a consensus on what content to remove and how much. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 07:26, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
Just to note, given the wonderful FA article you wrote, that I cam across a case of an aboriginal tribe which practiced introcision, which, despite trawling through the ethnography of roughly 550' other tribes, I hadn't see mentioned elsewhere. See Talk:Maiawali Cheers, Sarah, and have another very productive, and above, all personally rich and rewarding offline time, this year. Best regards. Nishidani ( talk) 20:22, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Why are you insisting on a redundancy? You would actually advocate poor writing for ... why? The facts alone aren't enough for you? Aside from being poor writing, it's WP:UNDUE. -- Tenebrae ( talk) 23:55, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

I'm on a cellphone and can't see clearly but it seems you rmv the smallpox img. Pls restore. That img illustrates. smallpox more vividly than some grainy distant photo from the 1940s. As such it is considerably more informative and aids reader understanding. Tks Lingzhi ♦ (talk)
Hello SV. Everyone knows about your passion for women's issues. i was thinking that I was a bit out of line when I wrote, "SV,I've taken out a few things which were in fact attested in the sources but did not match your urgently-pressed worldview." There are three reasons why I insisted that prostitution as a survival strategy is a freewill choice, and two of them are strangely self-contradictory: first, when I'm in academic mode, I frequently find my mind in an oddly abstract and dispassionate zone. So if the relevant literature describes prostitution as among the last-ditch survival strategies, then arguing against sources seems illogical to me. The contradictory side of this is that my choices also reflect a passion: my moral compass turns on the axis of innocent children. [Oddly, I've never done much in that direction on Wikipedia, other than Children of the Stars]. I wanted to separate and underscore the plight of those kidnapped and/or violently raped children from the plight of all other victims, in sympathy with the children. Last, while I was writing I knew for a fact that I personally would trade any and all of the more common kinds of sex in exchange for food for myself and my child if we faced starvation: no hesitation, no tears, no questions asked, and zero-point-zero regrets (tho I'm sure I would later think those who made me do it were reptilian). So anyhow, I'll strike that remark out. Lingzhi ♦ (talk) 18:00, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
Minor issue, but sentences don't normally end with commas. — BarrelProof ( talk) 19:52, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
I'm considering responding to your remark at Talk:Stanley Green saying "Sorry, I don't understand your final question." My purpose is to potentially achieve clarification of this comma issue in the MOS:LQ guideline. But I am wondering whether my further commenting there would appear to be trolling just to annoy you, which is not my intent. — BarrelProof ( talk) 18:44, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
Hello! Your submission of Ian Stephens (editor) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Farang Rak Tham (Talk) 12:27, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
The last time I submitted evidence to an arbcom case was back in about 2008, and given last night I might well leave it another 10 years before I engage there again. But anyway, I thought you were very clear sighted yesterday, and was it not for your insight and perseverance I would in all likely hood still be blocked, deeply confused, and the whole thing would have petered out. In the end I think they came down fair, and I was very impressed by Euryalus. Anyhow, this is to thank you very much for your input and help. Again. Ceoil ( talk) 19:06, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
Hi SV, I hope you're well. A recent discussion on my talk pointed me somewhat in your direction as an editor who might be willing to throw in a few thoughts as to how the above article could be improved...? As undoubtedly it can; anything you want to contribute—as little or as much as you like—would be greatly appreciated and of immense value. If, however, it's something that doesn't interest you, that's totally understandable—no problem. Thanks very much for any help you can give—take care! >SerialNumber 54129 ...speculates 11:10, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
