I have been viciously attacked by one of the members of the R&B group H-Town via their Wikipedia page and I noticed that any revisions I've made have been changed by you or other moderators or admins. However nothing has been done about the perso, DinoFan92, who keeps making edits and putting up false information. He has also put up sections with my full name. I've noticed that he has also deleted entire sections without penalty but when I did the same thing due to his harassment of me, my IP temporarily got blocked. I would like to know what's going on.

Hey there, at the Sushant Singh Rajput's talk page, Grant's responses are starting to feel fishy to me. They say Well I’m here to change cause of death from suicide (which is somebody’s opinion) to “ Asphyxia due to hanging”
but has also said the only official statement came from police which says it’s suicide. To me that’s the only acceptable facts.
Here you've been accused of being contradictory and yet Grant appears to be simultaneously arguing for inclusion of suicide and for exclusion of suicide, meanwhile making profound suggestions like I would suggest to keep an open mind for future and let the investigation unfold the details
when we've already indicated the article would be updated as new information developed. They've also said things like I see that you’re passionate about this topic
, which feels provocative. While it's possible they are totally oblivious about who made these determinations about Rajput's death (medical examiners vs. Wikipedians?) I do feel like they might be trying to get under our skins by trolling, or possibly it's just a
WP:ICANTHEARYOU situation. I've opted not to respond to their last comment. Regards,

You are very effective indeed in keeping and spam and other coi! But even dealing with people who are not good faith editors I have found it advisable to avoid negative words like those below in replying to an editor or in an edit summary. Be particularly careful with edit summaries: they can be suppressed, but not changed, so it is therefore advisable to keep them short and neutral.
"your post here, having an identical tone to the article, only damns the draft and your chances of continuing to edit here. "
"promotional trash"
"Revert this shit off. Don't collapse it, 86 it."
I'ts easy to forget; you and I have been here a similar length of time, and it gets very exasperated to keep dealing with some of this. I know that I too have sometime embarrassed myself by lapses. And I know how impatient one can get DGG ( talk ) 00:36, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
Hello Jéské Couriano,
These people have a legitimate concern about how Google answers this inquiry. It is a major screw-up on Google's part. They are coming to Wikipedia because Google is displaying this specific Wikipedia article as the source for Google's bad answer. So, I do not think that blanking posts and lecturing people in edit summaries is the best response. Why not just explain to people that Google is responsible for the error, and that they should contact Google? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 07:30, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Please don't respond at the Teahouse this way. The whole point of the Teahouse is that it's where new Wikipedians get relatively gentle advice and correction, not to be told "all your sources are useless" and (edit summary) "all five sources are crap". You've been here longer than I have; you have to be familiar with WP:BITE. There is a place for blunt communication, no doubt. It isn't the Teahouse. To answer your followup question, yes, in that venue I do expect you to sugarcoat it. It's not difficult to be clear and unambiguous while also offering constructive help.

Hi! I saw Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Tarsus_American_College and thought I could ask some Turkish Wikipedians if they could find some sources about this school. Some of the articles may be in Turkish but have English abstracts. Would you be alright looking at any of the sources that are written in English and giving your views on whether they prove notability?
Also in regards to using master's theses as sources, Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Scholarship states "Masters dissertations and theses are considered reliable only if they can be shown to have had significant scholarly influence." I can check to see if any academic books cited that master's thesis, as I think that would give admissibility to that thesis. WhisperToMe ( talk) 06:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Greetings, that is kind of too bad that there has to be some controversy in order to include a fan game project or patch for a game. it has been a while that i have been thinking about adding or requesting articles based on notable game hacks, mods, and obscure original creations.
Sometimes these creations are found only in some dedicated forums or are just mentioned in youtube videos, and are very hard to find in search engines, another negative is that some people trying to find them end up in dubious download websites and risk harming their computers.
i will take alook at articles similar to AM2R & see if i can fix the NSX article better. My original intention was to request the topic or article instead of making it myself, tho....

Hi there,
Thanks so much for spending the time and energy to walk me through this. I think I understand the distinction now and went ahead and added appropriate links that I believe better establish Choksi's notability.
I'll sum it up here:
1. https://opcofamerica.org/Awardarchive/the-madeline-dane-ross-award-2018/ An award that describes her work and that was presented at an award ceremony hosted by a CBS anchor and uploaded to the official OPC site.
2. https://medium.com/the-coalition-for-women-in-journalism/mansi-choksi-represents-cfwij-at-article-19-mexico-ad54f5d895a This article sums up a speech she gave at an Article 19 conference in Mexico about her work in journalism. Article 19's official channel. Article 19 is a human rights organization that is linked to a Wiki page above. I have also linked to a Youtube video aired on an Spanish news TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIDlYSZnUl4
4. https://www.iwmf.org/reporting/a-chance-to-rewrite-history-the-women-fighters-of-the-tamil-tigers/ This piece, although written by her, includes an intro by the editor since it was the last piece written by the murdered Swedish journalist Kim Wall. It also won a nomination for the Livingston Award, which is the most prestigious award for journalists under 35, they are referred to as the Pulitzer of the Young, as seen in its Wiki page.
5. https://longreads.com/2017/12/22/the-top-5-longreads-of-the-week-201/ Her story has been picked as the top 5 long reads.
6. https://wallacehouse.umich.edu/2018-livingston-award-finalists-announced/ I changed the link to Wallace House to show that she was a finalist for the most prestigious award for journalists under 35.
I'll look forward to your thoughts.

Hello, Jéské,
I realize that you are a very experienced editor on Wikipedia but every time you tag a page for any type of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/TFD/etc.), you need to post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. Not only it is part of the deletion process but it alerts the editor to existing problems with their contributions and informs them of the reason why the page might be deleted.
Most of Wikipedia editors take care of these notifications by using Twinkle when they tag pages for deletion. If you set up your Twinkle Preferences so that a) "Notify page creator" is always checked and b) make sure that all criteria of speedy deletion are checked off (I think the Twinkle default is to only have a few criteria selected) then Twinkle will take care of these notifications for you. If you choose not to use Twinkle, then please find an appropriate template to use or write out a notification yourself. Thank you for all of the work you do on Wikipedia. Liz Read!

Hello, Jéské!
I have been working with @ Salimfadhley--specifically, to get his feedback--on Draft:B. Riley Financial. My last message to him was one month ago, and, as of today, I haven't heard back. He seems to be inactive lately, so I hope you don't mind that I'm pinging you.
Actually, as I'm writing this, @ Salimfadhley just replied! Well, he responded but he didn't address the issue. He wrote, "It is definitely not cool to post an entire conversation into somebody's talk page."
At this point, I'm confused and frustrated. As you can see on Salim's talk page, to save space, I hid the new draft in a dropdown, and I responded to each of his points with specifics. I'm unsure what I could or should have done differently.
Also, after Salim declined my initial draft in November, I submitted a request at the Help Desk. No one responded.
I mention this history not to complain, but to underscore my efforts and patience.
So, with apologies for the long message, would you feel comfortable taking a look at my revised draft? I won't copy and paste it here (unless you prefer that); instead, it's still viewable on Salim's talk page (click "show" to the right of the "extended content" bar).

Hi Jéské. Thanks for your reply at [[ Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 February 11#Christian weston chandler. The discussion was SNOW closed before I even got up to speed. I have not read the alluded-to many AN threads, just the last once cited in the close. I have a little bit of memory of seeing this case before, but barely.
I believe that it is always a good idea for a request to recreate a controversial article should begin with a draft listing the WP:THREE. I later saw that the proponent of recreation did list three sources. I wanted to note, somewhere, here will do, that I have reviewed those three sources and find them not sufficient to justify drafting a new article, not overcoming the reasons not to, BLPCRIME, and WP:HNE.
I also wanted to comment on the comment “there's already lots of awful stuff out there for people to read. By Wikipedia not putting up an article, we are not stopping or preventing any of that. But not putting a good balanced/article to point out some of the evil that was done to her...we are missing out on doing some good. Missed opportunity” that you answered. My answer would have been that the proponent, while meaning well, is failing WP:NOTADVOCACY, Wikipedia does not and must not take positions to correct the real world.

Hello. Although for some reason you aren't signed up as a host at the Teahouse, I recognise you've made a huge number of contributions there over the years. So I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get involved and help out directly with one of them.
To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User Panini! reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse, whilst I've had just one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days, click here.
If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as have done at the Teahouse in the past - then please consider signing up at Growth Team features/Mentor list. But please only do so if you are genuinely willing to be available to help. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their Preferences.

Your signature includes an internal link with an underscore in its name. Underscores in internal links are 99% of the time the unintended result of copy/pasting an article title from the address bar, but in your case it's actually ASCII art. I don't know if you've ever had issues with this (I could imagine for example AWB users accidentally removing the mouth from v^_^v), but I noticed
my script would replace it with a space when editing a full section or page. As there's not really any way to differentiate between unintended and intended underscores in internal links, I'd suggest replacing the underscore with it's HTML code: _
. I won't and can't force you of course. And if you know a way to detect intended underscores (that doesn't involve a whitelist) I'd be interested to know. — Alexis Jazz (

This is largely moot now that 24rhhtr7 has been indefinitely blocked, but per an Arb decision, you should check to see if an editor has been alerted to DS before issuing an alert. In this particular case, Johnuniq alerted 24rhhtr7 to the AP DS on March 22, 2022, making your alert for AP on March 26, 2022 a duplicate. Now I obviously know you had good intentions, but I wanted to let you know that in the future you should do a quick check before dropping the alerts, as sometimes editors can react unpredictably if they've recently been alerted and reverted it, for example. You can run a quick search in the user's talk page history or check their logs. Mr Ernie ( talk) 15:26, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Jayla Marie, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

I would like to thank you for your arduous tasks you do at the Teahouse, whilst this is impressive, may I suggest that you begin every response with "Hello and welcome to the Teahouse" this makes the editor asking the question feel very comfortable and this subconsciously appeals to the editor making them know that they are indeed loved and very welcome, of course this isn’t mandatory but merely my philosophy.

Hi - fellow AfD help desk volunteer here. Your work to identify poor sourcing in proposed drafts is commendable, but I'd like to suggest responding to new editors with a lighter touch. I can tell from some of your responses [ [4]] that the non-stop barrage of connected editors is frustrating you, but remember that they are inexperienced and clearly have no idea that what they are doing is wrong. The sources are garbage, but they don't need to be told that. We don't want them to think we're jerks over here, since that will affect how they view the encyclopedia. Think of yourself as a brand representative. Maybe next time someone makes you frustrated with poor sourcing, before writing a harsh response, you might take a quick breath, and think about how great Wikipedia is, remember what it was like when you were new, and then rewrite the note with a more neutral response. See you at the help desk! TechnoTalk ( talk) 04:10, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
Hi - Fellow AfC help desk volunteer here. Your insights and understanding of policies and guidelines are helpful, but I'm writing to you again about your tone in responding to other editors, such as here. Please remember that even though we are all volunteers, we represent Wikipedia to newcomers, and don't want them to think we are being rude. It will affect their perception of the encyclopedia. Please try to limit the harsh language in the future. If you are getting frustrated by newbies who don't understand how things work, please consider taking a break to recharge. Happy editing!

An editor asked "I want to ask if there is a way to produce a graph that shows the stock price of it during these last 2 weeks?" You answered "no" which is incorrect. Take a look at GameStop short squeeze which describes a very similar situation, and the same graphing techniques can be used to create graphs for this article. Please do not answer "no" when the correct answer is "yes". Cullen328 ( talk) 01:36, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Funny that I also came here to write about the Tea house, but I guess I'll have to change the section header a bit. Anyway... Jéské, you obviously have a deep knowledge of Wikipedia, and also of your specialty topics. And it's great that you volunteer at the Tea house. But, (Aha! I bet you knew there was a but coming...) your responses, although accurate as far as they go, sometimes have a preachy or impatient tone. (Please accept this attempt at constructive criticism, from someone who can be preachy and impatient . ) I found this response to the entry WP:Tea house § Wanted to Created a Company Page accurate, but harsh. Maybe just go a little easier on them; they're often newbies and might consider becoming an editor and writing about something else. Or maybe they won't, but one never knows, and a harsh first experience at Wikipedia probably won't seem very encouraging. Other than that, I really enjoy your comments at various Talk forums and Rfc's. Keep up the good work! Mathglot ( talk) 10:09, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello Jéské Couriano,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Shahi Kabir for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.
If you don't want Shahi Kabir to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Calvin Richardson. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. FishandChipper 🐟 🍟 20:12, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
Hi Jeske, You have just answered me on Tea House regarding Edit Notice. As you said - To Purge. I did it. But, still the issue not sloved.

You might not much care what I have to say; I've only been editing for a couple of years as an IP and an account. But...
When you are decoding references for (usually new) editors, which is quite helpful, you must get frustrated at repeated non-sequitirs or other repeated poor sources. And that shows in your notes on the sources. But the OP likely doesn't understand any of that yet, when they are reading your list for the first time. But halfway through the list, they start seeing a lot of "yet another fucking non-sequitir" or whatever.
Maybe the OP fully understands what you are saying, after they read the first couple of your notes--and then they are hit with cussing, as if they kept making the same mistakes after being told what was wrong. But that's not the case--they are seeing your list all at once, without a chance to go back and say "I get it; I'll fix the references". It just seems rude to cuss at the editor on their first reading of your explanations, before they have a chance to implement your advice. If they keep doing the same thing to the article after seeing your whole decoding, then by all means, cuss away. Just my two cents. Thanks. David10244 ( talk) 04:56, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

My reading of
this comment is that there is a valid reason that the user is opposing a redirect/merge; the user is writing that the article does not duplicate the scope of an existing article in its current form (are a discrete entity that are not a subset of any other subject
) and that the scope of the Twitter Files will grow beyond the Hunter Biden-related items (TTF releases are forthcoming concerning other heretofore unconfirmed or private communications and decisions e.g. the banning of the account of The Babylon Bee satire site
). I understand the urge to remove the comment because of its final line, but it isn't the case that the whole comment is off topic. Would you please self-revert? —

PTA said it has been receiving complaints regarding misleading search results associated with “Present Khalifa of Islam” and unauthentic version of Holy Quran on Google Play Store.(emphasis added) Dec 2020 is when WP:CALIPH first became an issue, and it's pretty well documented at this point that we've been taking some of the blame for Google's behaviour.

Hi. I would like to continue my conversation with you regarding my help request to say that what I actually was asking about (and should probably have been more clear about) is that I'm unsure what to do considering that I would actually want to use the username previously associated with that now-vanished account, but I'm unable to do what I decided upon: retiring this account and making a new one to use from now on with that username, because I can't make a new account with the same username as that now-vanished account. I still have the credentials for that account, but I haven't tried using them to log in.
Ideally I'd remove any mention of my real name from Wikipedia, but as I talked about in my previous help topic, even a courtesy vanishing doesn't remove every mention of your name from Wikipedia, and it's not supposed to be used for such purposes anyway, so I settled on retiring. Compared to renaming this account, at least it removes any association from my old username and my desired username.
I also have to mention just in case that renaming this account was actually what I was intentioning to do when I vanished the other account, but I never got around to doing it until now and have realized that I prefered retiring.
Thanks for any help. Ștefan Tărâță ( talk) 18:25, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey there, at the Sushant Singh Rajput's talk page, Grant's responses are starting to feel fishy to me. They say Well I’m here to change cause of death from suicide (which is somebody’s opinion) to “ Asphyxia due to hanging”
but has also said the only official statement came from police which says it’s suicide. To me that’s the only acceptable facts.
Here you've been accused of being contradictory and yet Grant appears to be simultaneously arguing for inclusion of suicide and for exclusion of suicide, meanwhile making profound suggestions like I would suggest to keep an open mind for future and let the investigation unfold the details
when we've already indicated the article would be updated as new information developed. They've also said things like I see that you’re passionate about this topic
, which feels provocative. While it's possible they are totally oblivious about who made these determinations about Rajput's death (medical examiners vs. Wikipedians?) I do feel like they might be trying to get under our skins by trolling, or possibly it's just a
WP:ICANTHEARYOU situation. I've opted not to respond to their last comment. Regards,

You are very effective indeed in keeping and spam and other coi! But even dealing with people who are not good faith editors I have found it advisable to avoid negative words like those below in replying to an editor or in an edit summary. Be particularly careful with edit summaries: they can be suppressed, but not changed, so it is therefore advisable to keep them short and neutral.
"your post here, having an identical tone to the article, only damns the draft and your chances of continuing to edit here. "
"promotional trash"
"Revert this shit off. Don't collapse it, 86 it."

Hello Jéské Couriano,
These people have a legitimate concern about how Google answers this inquiry. It is a major screw-up on Google's part. They are coming to Wikipedia because Google is displaying this specific Wikipedia article as the source for Google's bad answer. So, I do not think that blanking posts and lecturing people in edit summaries is the best response. Why not just explain to people that Google is responsible for the error, and that they should contact Google? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 07:30, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Please don't respond at the Teahouse this way. The whole point of the Teahouse is that it's where new Wikipedians get relatively gentle advice and correction, not to be told "all your sources are useless" and (edit summary) "all five sources are crap". You've been here longer than I have; you have to be familiar with WP:BITE. There is a place for blunt communication, no doubt. It isn't the Teahouse. To answer your followup question, yes, in that venue I do expect you to sugarcoat it. It's not difficult to be clear and unambiguous while also offering constructive help.

It might not surprise you to hear that Squirrelnet has now created the article Zakariabenlafqih asked about in that thread, using the very same references.

Hi! I saw Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Tarsus_American_College and thought I could ask some Turkish Wikipedians if they could find some sources about this school. Some of the articles may be in Turkish but have English abstracts. Would you be alright looking at any of the sources that are written in English and giving your views on whether they prove notability?
Also in regards to using master's theses as sources, Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Scholarship states "Masters dissertations and theses are considered reliable only if they can be shown to have had significant scholarly influence." I can check to see if any academic books cited that master's thesis, as I think that would give admissibility to that thesis. WhisperToMe ( talk) 06:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello. Your comment was far too vehement and comparing routine businessperson puffery to the 16 year old Siegenthaler incident is both incorrect and over the top. It is important to explain and defend BLP policy, but it is equally important to do so in a way that does not bite newcomers or rely on hyperbole.

Greetings, that is kind of too bad that there has to be some controversy in order to include a fan game project or patch for a game. it has been a while that i have been thinking about adding or requesting articles based on notable game hacks, mods, and obscure original creations.
Sometimes these creations are found only in some dedicated forums or are just mentioned in youtube videos, and are very hard to find in search engines, another negative is that some people trying to find them end up in dubious download websites and risk harming their computers.
i will take alook at articles similar to AM2R & see if i can fix the NSX article better. My original intention was to request the topic or article instead of making it myself, tho....

Hi there,
Thanks so much for spending the time and energy to walk me through this. I think I understand the distinction now and went ahead and added appropriate links that I believe better establish Choksi's notability.
I'll sum it up here:
1. https://opcofamerica.org/Awardarchive/the-madeline-dane-ross-award-2018/ An award that describes her work and that was presented at an award ceremony hosted by a CBS anchor and uploaded to the official OPC site.
2. https://medium.com/the-coalition-for-women-in-journalism/mansi-choksi-represents-cfwij-at-article-19-mexico-ad54f5d895a This article sums up a speech she gave at an Article 19 conference in Mexico about her work in journalism. Article 19's official channel. Article 19 is a human rights organization that is linked to a Wiki page above. I have also linked to a Youtube video aired on an Spanish news TV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIDlYSZnUl4
4. https://www.iwmf.org/reporting/a-chance-to-rewrite-history-the-women-fighters-of-the-tamil-tigers/ This piece, although written by her, includes an intro by the editor since it was the last piece written by the murdered Swedish journalist Kim Wall. It also won a nomination for the Livingston Award, which is the most prestigious award for journalists under 35, they are referred to as the Pulitzer of the Young, as seen in its Wiki page.
5. https://longreads.com/2017/12/22/the-top-5-longreads-of-the-week-201/ Her story has been picked as the top 5 long reads.
6. https://wallacehouse.umich.edu/2018-livingston-award-finalists-announced/ I changed the link to Wallace House to show that she was a finalist for the most prestigious award for journalists under 35.
I'll look forward to your thoughts.

Hello, Jéské,
I realize that you are a very experienced editor on Wikipedia but every time you tag a page for any type of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/TFD/etc.), you need to post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. Not only it is part of the deletion process but it alerts the editor to existing problems with their contributions and informs them of the reason why the page might be deleted.
Most of Wikipedia editors take care of these notifications by using Twinkle when they tag pages for deletion. If you set up your Twinkle Preferences so that a) "Notify page creator" is always checked and b) make sure that all criteria of speedy deletion are checked off (I think the Twinkle default is to only have a few criteria selected) then Twinkle will take care of these notifications for you. If you choose not to use Twinkle, then please find an appropriate template to use or write out a notification yourself. Thank you for all of the work you do on Wikipedia. Liz Read!

Hello, Jéské!
I have been working with @ Salimfadhley--specifically, to get his feedback--on Draft:B. Riley Financial. My last message to him was one month ago, and, as of today, I haven't heard back. He seems to be inactive lately, so I hope you don't mind that I'm pinging you.
Actually, as I'm writing this, @ Salimfadhley just replied! Well, he responded but he didn't address the issue. He wrote, "It is definitely not cool to post an entire conversation into somebody's talk page."
At this point, I'm confused and frustrated. As you can see on Salim's talk page, to save space, I hid the new draft in a dropdown, and I responded to each of his points with specifics. I'm unsure what I could or should have done differently.
Also, after Salim declined my initial draft in November, I submitted a request at the Help Desk. No one responded.
I mention this history not to complain, but to underscore my efforts and patience.
So, with apologies for the long message, would you feel comfortable taking a look at my revised draft? I won't copy and paste it here (unless you prefer that); instead, it's still viewable on Salim's talk page (click "show" to the right of the "extended content" bar).

Hi Jéské. Thanks for your reply at [[ Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2022 February 11#Christian weston chandler. The discussion was SNOW closed before I even got up to speed. I have not read the alluded-to many AN threads, just the last once cited in the close. I have a little bit of memory of seeing this case before, but barely.
I believe that it is always a good idea for a request to recreate a controversial article should begin with a draft listing the WP:THREE. I later saw that the proponent of recreation did list three sources. I wanted to note, somewhere, here will do, that I have reviewed those three sources and find them not sufficient to justify drafting a new article, not overcoming the reasons not to, BLPCRIME, and WP:HNE.
I also wanted to comment on the comment “there's already lots of awful stuff out there for people to read. By Wikipedia not putting up an article, we are not stopping or preventing any of that. But not putting a good balanced/article to point out some of the evil that was done to her...we are missing out on doing some good. Missed opportunity” that you answered. My answer would have been that the proponent, while meaning well, is failing WP:NOTADVOCACY, Wikipedia does not and must not take positions to correct the real world.

Hello. Although for some reason you aren't signed up as a host at the Teahouse, I recognise you've made a huge number of contributions there over the years. So I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get involved and help out directly with one of them.
To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User Panini! reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse, whilst I've had just one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days, click here.
If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as have done at the Teahouse in the past - then please consider signing up at Growth Team features/Mentor list. But please only do so if you are genuinely willing to be available to help. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their Preferences.

Your signature includes an internal link with an underscore in its name. Underscores in internal links are 99% of the time the unintended result of copy/pasting an article title from the address bar, but in your case it's actually ASCII art. I don't know if you've ever had issues with this (I could imagine for example AWB users accidentally removing the mouth from v^_^v), but I noticed
my script would replace it with a space when editing a full section or page. As there's not really any way to differentiate between unintended and intended underscores in internal links, I'd suggest replacing the underscore with it's HTML code: _
. I won't and can't force you of course. And if you know a way to detect intended underscores (that doesn't involve a whitelist) I'd be interested to know. — Alexis Jazz (

This is largely moot now that 24rhhtr7 has been indefinitely blocked, but per an Arb decision, you should check to see if an editor has been alerted to DS before issuing an alert. In this particular case, Johnuniq alerted 24rhhtr7 to the AP DS on March 22, 2022, making your alert for AP on March 26, 2022 a duplicate. Now I obviously know you had good intentions, but I wanted to let you know that in the future you should do a quick check before dropping the alerts, as sometimes editors can react unpredictably if they've recently been alerted and reverted it, for example. You can run a quick search in the user's talk page history or check their logs. Mr Ernie ( talk) 15:26, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Jayla Marie, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. — Jeff G. ツ 10:04, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
I would like to thank you for your arduous tasks you do at the Teahouse, whilst this is impressive, may I suggest that you begin every response with "Hello and welcome to the Teahouse" this makes the editor asking the question feel very comfortable and this subconsciously appeals to the editor making them know that they are indeed loved and very welcome, of course this isn’t mandatory but merely my philosophy.

Hi - fellow AfD help desk volunteer here. Your work to identify poor sourcing in proposed drafts is commendable, but I'd like to suggest responding to new editors with a lighter touch. I can tell from some of your responses [ [4]] that the non-stop barrage of connected editors is frustrating you, but remember that they are inexperienced and clearly have no idea that what they are doing is wrong. The sources are garbage, but they don't need to be told that. We don't want them to think we're jerks over here, since that will affect how they view the encyclopedia. Think of yourself as a brand representative. Maybe next time someone makes you frustrated with poor sourcing, before writing a harsh response, you might take a quick breath, and think about how great Wikipedia is, remember what it was like when you were new, and then rewrite the note with a more neutral response. See you at the help desk! TechnoTalk ( talk) 04:10, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Funny that I also came here to write about the Tea house, but I guess I'll have to change the section header a bit. Anyway... Jéské, you obviously have a deep knowledge of Wikipedia, and also of your specialty topics. And it's great that you volunteer at the Tea house. But, (Aha! I bet you knew there was a but coming...) your responses, although accurate as far as they go, sometimes have a preachy or impatient tone. (Please accept this attempt at constructive criticism, from someone who can be preachy and impatient . ) I found this response to the entry WP:Tea house § Wanted to Created a Company Page accurate, but harsh. Maybe just go a little easier on them; they're often newbies and might consider becoming an editor and writing about something else. Or maybe they won't, but one never knows, and a harsh first experience at Wikipedia probably won't seem very encouraging.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Calvin Richardson. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. FishandChipper 🐟 🍟 20:12, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

You might not much care what I have to say; I've only been editing for a couple of years as an IP and an account. But...
When you are decoding references for (usually new) editors, which is quite helpful, you must get frustrated at repeated non-sequitirs or other repeated poor sources. And that shows in your notes on the sources. But the OP likely doesn't understand any of that yet, when they are reading your list for the first time. But halfway through the list, they start seeing a lot of "yet another fucking non-sequitir" or whatever.
Maybe the OP fully understands what you are saying, after they read the first couple of your notes--and then they are hit with cussing, as if they kept making the same mistakes after being told what was wrong. But that's not the case--they are seeing your list all at once, without a chance to go back and say "I get it; I'll fix the references". It just seems rude to cuss at the editor on their first reading of your explanations, before they have a chance to implement your advice. If they keep doing the same thing to the article after seeing your whole decoding, then by all means, cuss away. Just my two cents. Thanks. David10244 ( talk) 04:56, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

My reading of
this comment is that there is a valid reason that the user is opposing a redirect/merge; the user is writing that the article does not duplicate the scope of an existing article in its current form (are a discrete entity that are not a subset of any other subject
) and that the scope of the Twitter Files will grow beyond the Hunter Biden-related items (TTF releases are forthcoming concerning other heretofore unconfirmed or private communications and decisions e.g. the banning of the account of The Babylon Bee satire site
). I understand the urge to remove the comment because of its final line, but it isn't the case that the whole comment is off topic. Would you please self-revert? —

The next time you pull a grotesque stunt like that, I will block you indefinitely, and you will need to convince another administrator that your misconduct will never happen again if you want to be unblocked. Stop acting like a jackass. Cullen328 ( talk) 09:25, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
Do you have a link for this? It would be nice to have something, because it's going to be in this week's Signpost. jp× g 11:29, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
In December 2020, PTA had issued notices to Google and Wikipedia on account of disseminating sacrilegious content through the platforms. PTA said it has been receiving complaints regarding misleading search results associated with “Present Khalifa of Islam” and unauthentic version of Holy Quran on Google Play Store.(emphasis added) Dec 2020 is when WP:CALIPH first became an issue, and it's pretty well documented at this point that we've been taking some of the blame for Google's behaviour. I'm looking for a source that says something more concretely, but so far the only source I can access that mentions the Ahmadiyya at all is the Tribune source. — Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.) 13:25, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, reverted the wrong thing. Redwarn's been acting up for me, might switch to Ultraviolet because it's so buggy. Sorry again. Roundish ⋆ t c) 20:06, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

For your diligent takedown at Talk:Creole_peoples#The_IPv6's_lede_and_sources which is one of the most thorough criticisms I've seen in my time here. Nice job. Yamla ( talk) 10:34, 20 March 2023 (UTC) |

Edit requests are allowed for non-ec editors in the topic area. It's one of the few edits they're allowed to make dealing with the topic. This is likely to become more common as some talk pages are getting ec protected. I suggest you decline with minimal comment, and revert duplicate requests. Thanks for taking your time to address the edit requests. ScottishFinnishRadish ( talk) 23:06, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
this is so helpful! I understand wikipedia more now. thanks!

You recently offered a statement in a request for arbitration. The Arbitration Committee has accepted that request for arbitration and an arbitration case has been opened at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Administrator Conduct Case 2024-1: Mzajac. Evidence that you wish the arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence subpage, at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Administrator Conduct Case 2024-1: Mzajac/Evidence. Please add your evidence by January 30, 2024, which is when the evidence phase closes.

Hi. I would like to continue my conversation with you regarding my help request to say that what I actually was asking about (and should probably have been more clear about) is that I'm unsure what to do considering that I would actually want to use the username previously associated with that now-vanished account, but I'm unable to do what I decided upon: retiring this account and making a new one to use from now on with that username, because I can't make a new account with the same username as that now-vanished account. I still have the credentials for that account, but I haven't tried using them to log in.
Ideally I'd remove any mention of my real name from Wikipedia, but as I talked about in my previous help topic, even a courtesy vanishing doesn't remove every mention of your name from Wikipedia, and it's not supposed to be used for such purposes anyway, so I settled on retiring. Compared to renaming this account, at least it removes any association from my old username and my desired username.
I also have to mention just in case that renaming this account was actually what I was intentioning to do when I vanished the other account, but I never got around to doing it until now and have realized that I prefered retiring.
Thanks for any help. Ștefan Tărâță ( talk) 18:25, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
The LTA is now offering me to go to a specific address to commit acts of violence so that they could stop outing me. This off-wiki behavior is disgusting. Eyesnore talk💬 17:32, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
I have addressed all of the issues you previously addressed about this article, /info/en/?search=User:Gaw54/sandbox, and believe that it is ready for publication. Your feedback and assistance would be much appreciated. Thank you. Gaw54 ( talk) 19:42, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
