It is poor etiquete to revert an edit which was not vandilisation without an explaination. The dates I added were correct. Dorkinglad ( talk) 16:16, 21 March 2023 (UTC)an reply

The dates had nothing to do with the tournament and were therefor misleading. Tewapack ( talk) 16:24, 21 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Fair enough. keep on truckin'. Next time an explanation. It's courtesy. Dorkinglad ( talk) 12:48, 23 March 2023 (UTC) reply

His age was showing up as 56 yesterday, on his birthday, until I changed the birth month from 4 to 04. Maybe that was just a coincidence? It was the afternoon, so it wasn't a time zone issue. The birth date and age template seems broken. Kstern ( talk) 11:34, 29 April 2023 (UTC) reply

Is there a source anywhere to suggest that his name is spelt Peña and not Pena? Have had a quick look and found nothing. Jimmymci234 ( talk) 14:01, 29 April 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Jimmymci234: Peña was certainly used in many newspapers during the 1990s, e.g. [1]. _wjemather ^{please leave a message...} 19:02, 27 July 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Wjemather: Thanks, will go with that then. Jimmymci234 ( talk) 19:04, 27 July 2023 (UTC) reply

I know it doesn't really matter, but is there any difference in using these codes for flagicons, or is it just purely based on preference? Jimmymci234 ( talk) 18:28, 27 July 2023 (UTC) reply

Using DEU requires 1 less template load than GER. As you said, doesn't really matter. Tewapack ( talk) 18:30, 27 July 2023 (UTC) reply

Sorry for the mess. Tried to correct without being aware of your correction. EEJB EEJB ( talk) 21:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Hi, I was just wondering why the cat sorts were reverted. I don't doubt you have a good reason for doing it, but it would be helpful to know why it was done, for future reference. Thanks! Stefen Tower_{s among the rest!} ^{Gab • Gruntwerk} 17:33, 5 October 2023 (UTC) reply

I think it makes more sense to sort by year for these types of events (non-annual, or no pattern). Tewapack ( talk) 20:16, 5 October 2023 (UTC) reply

There is sense to doing it that way, I agree. But I think in this case where we're collecting different kinds of events that happened in a city, sorting by year jumbles them in terms of the name/kind of event and may make it harder for the reader to find what they're looking for (in principle at least). That's why I was trying to sort by event name, with year as a secondary sort. Stefen Tower_{s among the rest!} ^{Gab • Gruntwerk} 20:23, 5 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Hi, sorry for not following what I see now is pretty common/the norm for golfers in terms of sections dealing with wins and thanks for reverting it. (Not sure why I hadn't noticed it before.) Is there a good thread/page that talks about the suggested layout for golfers? Thanks! Skynxnex ( talk) 21:18, 16 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Unfortunately no. The style has evolved (and continues to evolve) over time. Tewapack ( talk) 22:54, 16 October 2023 (UTC) reply

I didn't know where to place my message, so I am using this section. Thank you for improving the article "Kokona Sakurai" that I wrote. I appreciate it very much. However, please do not change the date format. Since she will be participating in at least the Women's US Open this year, hopefully, also the Women's PGA Championship, and she plans to become an LPGA member next year, I would prefer the American-style date format. Thank you in advance. Pantherat2 ( talk) 09:06, 21 April 2024 (UTC) reply

For non-US and non-Canadian related articles,the day-month-year date format should be used per MOS:DATETIES. I'll revert the article to use mdy dates. Tewapack ( talk) 17:13, 22 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello, Tewapack,

Please review Wikipedia:Rollback, especially the section that states Editors who misuse MediaWiki rollback (for example, by using it to make unexplained reversions of good-faith edits in situations where an explanatory edit summary would normally be expected) may have their rollback rights removed. Do not use rollback to revert edits of longtime editors making good faith edits without leaving an explanation as you did when you emptied Category:Italian expatriate golfers in the United States out of process. If you persist in misusing this editing feature, you may have your privileges removed. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!}
