I know how to sign posts after finishing them (you add Valkyrie Red 14:58, 2 January 2010 (UTC) at the end) but for some reason, whenever I sign my posts it says "preceding unsigned comment added by Valkyrie Red. Even if I click the autosign button it still says that. How do I fix my signature/Can someone tell me what's wrong with my signature? Thanks! (When I'm done with this post and I sign it, it will say that phrase)--Valkyrie Red 14:58, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Yes, I do. Like right now, I will add itValkyrie Red 15:16, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
- Your signature does not have a link to your userpage or talk page. Simplest way to fix it is to turn off the "sign my name exactly as shown" in your preferences. Timotheus Canens ( talk) 15:33, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks a lot man! Appreciate it!-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 15:36, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
In the case where there is a prequel developed after the initial film, we would consider that to be "followed by". For the Star Wars films, although they started with the later films and then went into the prequels, it is more helpful for readers who know nothing of the topic to know what came first. These films were several decades apart and resulted in different special effects, new actors, and more developed techniques from the director and crew. Although it may be confusing which may come first, there should always be a section in the article that talks about any prequels/sequels to clarify for the reader. There is a current discussion going on at WT:FILM if you would like further thoughts by other editors. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 ( talk • contrib) 20:35, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
Like if I were to redirect to the section "second gathering" in the Trojan War article. How do I do that?-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 00:48, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
- For example, [[User talk:Valkyrie Red#Note|This bit]] = This bit.
- [[Trojan War#The second gathering]] gives Trojan War#The second gathering.

Hello there fellow Wikipedians! I need to help to make Wikipedia a more reliable source of information. For this I am talking about the Battle of Gettysburg Article, which was indeed a decisive victory for the North but unfortunately there is a user who uses articles written by himself to claim that it wasn't a victory. Someone please aid me!-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 14:30, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Firstly, any and all facts relating to the Battle of Gettysburg, victory or not, must be verified, by independant reliable sources. And if either you or the other user are using your own original research it is unacceptable for the article. You must discuss this on the talk page with this other user and if the dispute continues then follow the steps laid out in Wikipedia:Dispute resolution requests. -- œ ™ 15:33, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
{{ help me}}
Yeah, the above guy didn't help at all, so is there anyone else willing to join in?-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 20:31, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Can you provide me a link to this user and articles he references?
Spitfire19 (
Talk) 20:44, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- I made the edit for you as of right now. Please come to User talk:Spitfire19 if you have any more issues with this topic. :) Spitfire19 ( Talk) 21:22, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
If your only goal was to recruit editors to "join in" and take your side over another's to "help you prove a point" then no, I guess I didn't help at all, as that is NOT what the helpme template is for. I suggest you read the advice I gave above regarding dispute resolution. -- œ ™ 15:21, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
Yes. You asked if the victory was "decisive". Most commentators seem to think so. If you look at the other articles on Wikipedia in other languages, for example, they pretty much all say "Decisive Union Victory". The German one though is cautious like this article is at present, and calls it a "Union Victory". Personally I think it was decisive as it is considered the turning point of the war, and after it the Confederates went into headlong retreat. The Union was also easily able to replace the 25% casualties. The Confederacy was unable to replace its 33% losses. All and all, it was a disaster for the South.

Oh wow, that was almost two years ago. Sure, what do you need help in? Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 23:40, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Whoops, sure I'm willing. I'm just unsure if that is risking point of view pushing on a topic. Before I start work, tell me why you decided to work on this issue. Also, do you have credible evidence to back it up?
Kevin Rutherford (
talk) 04:30, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
- It sounds like you are involved in a content dispute here, one that has been going on for almost three and a half years. I am willing to mediate it, but I am not going to get involved. The fact that you have also used a sock to edit-war here also makes me less inclined to help. If you can produce something that might swing my opinion, by all means try and do so but at this time I'm not gonna help you directly. Kevin Rutherford ( talk) 23:06, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, another use insulted me. How do you report them? Thanks!-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 22:03, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
- I assume that you mean this edit. I would not, personally, consider that to be a personal attack, or in breach of any Wikipedia policies, therefore I do not think any further action is necessary.
- If you wish to pursue the matter (which I do not advise), you could either discuss it directly with the other user, or raise it on Wikiquette alerts.
- However, my advice is to drop the STICK and have a nice cup of tea or something. Best, Chzz ► 22:11, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
Ideally, there would be an infobox for the conflict since even our articles on fictional wars use the infobox (see One Year War for an example), however the addition of the box can be a tricky issue if the people who keep tabs on the article decide to remove the box based on consensus. If this is the case, then I would recommend leaving the article infobox-free and instead work on gaining consensus for the reintroduction of the box. Remember, at the end of the day all the box does in summaries what going to be presented in the article, so its loss is not necessarily a devastating thing, it just means that those visiting the article will have to actually read through the material to get a feel for it rather than glance at the infobox and get a rough overview of it. TomStar81 ( Talk) 00:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- I'm incline to wait awhile longer before making a move here, I want to make sure that everything is out in the open and that usually means waiting until the last of the comments added is at least 24-hours old. When that happens I think a straw poll will be in order to determine the consensus for the infobox on the page.

WP:BOLD, and to a lesser extent,
WP:IAR, its just unfortunate that in this case neither one of these positions took well to the debate.

- Coordinators be thou for the contributors. We exist not to force adherence to policy or guideline, but help bring people to an agreement on how things should appear in articles. To this end therefore I look to consensus to establish a course of action, in this manner, I leave the major decision to the editors and place myself in a position to enforce whatever consensus emerges in a poll.

Hi, Valkyrie Red. I've been trying to help maintain the Trojan War box, which I consider more of a navigational template. (By the way, I did come to your page to ask for input when you fell silent during the creation of the Trojan War nav template, because I felt that since you had been a major voice, you should be heard before finalizing. I'm sorry you weren't able to participate in finishing that.) But I'm not really interested in taking a lead role in the article. You should probably go to the Trojan War talk page.

Greetings, It was recently suggested that WikiProject United States History might be inactive or semiactive and that it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States.

A few things regarding your edits here and here.
- That section is contentious. And the standing consensus is that it is appropriate in covering the overall development, use, exploitation, and critiques of the character. Please go back through the archives of the articles talk page to see this.
- In order for this to be removed, an active change in consensus needs to be shown. Not just a single editor stating "I see no need..." It is unfortunate that you did not get an immediate response to you talk page post of July 21, but that does not show active change.
- Your semi-bold removal did get the response indicative of the standing consensus, whether you want to hear it or not. Along with a return to the status quo.
- Repeating the removal after that without bothering to return to the talk page can be taken as the start of disruptive editing in most cases. Doing it with sourced material that is in place with a strong consensus could be seen as worse.
- J Greb ( talk) 13:20, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- Since it's come up again. this is disruptive and editing in bad faith. You have been pointed to the talk page and the archives for the consensus on this. If you cannot work with in that and continue to edit this way you will be blocked for vandalism. - J Greb ( talk) 01:24, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello
Please don't create implausible or useless redirects.
- Mr. Poppers Penguins (film) is either broken English or catering to a French-language aesthetic. Neither is a reason to create it as a redirect.
- ディックグレイソン would possibly be useful if it were a Japanese-language topi and the article has started out there instead of under an English title. It's less than pointless for an English-language topic on the English-language Wikipedia.
And, so you are clear on it, a warning. Please so not engage in personal attacks as you did here.

Yeah, no point in mentioning names since no one even cares, but what do you do if someone acts like they own the page and will restrict others from making changes just cause they have a set way of operating the page?

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lego Marvel Super Heroes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nemesis ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I happened to notice your comment on Corvoes talk page:
- I want to discuss a change because that's my right as a contributor to Wikipedia, but no one will respond even after using the ping template. How am I supposed to initiate a logic-based discussion if no one is willing to discuss?
Just a friendly reminder: Wikipedia talk pages are about improving its articles, not a general discussion forum. Meaning don't feel bad if nobody responds to any general discussion or questions, it could well be that people don't see any direct relevance to Wikipedia. In that case, you will be better off posting your thoughts elsewhere.
Therefore, assuming your ideas directly concern our articles, my best advice is: Be WP:BOLD and go ahead and edit the article(s) in question! This will normally trigger a response, assuming not everyone agrees with you. Perhaps you will be reverted, but you should normally expect that editor to explain why, thus starting the discussion you seek :)

I want to enact a change on a page and presented the idea on said page's talk page. However, it's been a couple of days and no one has responded. This would be a relatively large change, so I can't Be Bold. How do I get others to participate?-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 12:57, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- If it is an article the best way is to put the article up for an RfC, as seen here WP:RFC some people get notifications of the RFC and will respond to it, though I do recommend contacting the other primary editors and other editors of the article by leaving them a message on their talk page, to let them know that there is an ongoing RFC a article that they contributed to. -- Clarkcj12 ( talk) 16:31, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
A few things regarding image files
- Try not to change files in articles by uploading a different image over the file already on Wikipedia. The file you want to place should be uploaded under a different file name.
- When you upload a file, make sure that the non-free media information and use rationale is consistent with the image you upload. Discrepancies between the two will lead to the image being removed.
- Non-free image are of limited size. With regard to comic book character, 1,500 pixel × 2,049 pixel is well above the acceptable limit.
And it seems you are still creating implausible redirects. Please stop that.
- J Greb ( talk) 11:24, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
- To clarify with the implausible redirects:
- Redirects for incorrect capitalization are not wanted are not wanted.
- Redirects from non-standard abbreviations are not wanted.
- Redirects from non-standard or fanish alternate titles are not wanted.
- Also:
- Don't disrupt radio or television station articles to create unwanted redirects. Don't even add hat notes pointing to the other article.
- Don't disrupt dab pages to add the above type of links.

You are starting up some WP:3RR for this one genre edit so please stop reverting my edits. It was my original edit to call it an action thriller.

Nominations for the Military history WikiProject historian and newcomer of the year awards now open!
On behalf of the Military history WikiProject's Coordinators, we would like to extend an invitation to nominate deserving editors for the 2015 Military historian of the year and Military history newcomer of the year awards. The nomination period will run from 7 December to 23:59 13 December, with the election phase running from 14 December to 23:59 21 December. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 05:05, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Arrowverse shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Alex|The|Whovian ? 05:21, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
Not true at all. I revert irrelevant information all the time. When I say "irrelevant", I don't mean that the time remove it is irrelevant, but that information is not needed for Wikipedia. It's a minute detail. Fictional characters are fictional, not real. They don't have "full names". We go by how they are credited. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 12:22, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- It's the comic book, this is the show. It links to him. that's only relevant to comic fans. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 22:16, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- What part of my comment suggests high and mighty status? I'm a comic fan. I also know how to differentiate between the TV show and the comic books and not including information that is only relevant to a small set of readers. The average reader that just enjoys The Flash isn't going to care that Cisco's full name is "Francisco" (and last night wasn't even the first time it was used). We operate from an objective approach. That is, character names are their credited names, not the in-universe name. That's why Harvey Dent is not "Two-Face" on the "Dark Knight" page. Why Thea is just Thea, and not "Thea Deardon Queen". BIGNOLE (Contact me) 02:19, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
- I'm a huge Superman fan. I'm more DC than Marvel period, hence why I tend to write for the DC related pages (Smallville, Arrow, The Flash, etc.). BIGNOLE (Contact me) 22:18, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017.

Greetings,
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
- updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Please participate in ongoing discussions of content under dispute; editing while ignoring such discussions is generally considered disruptive, as it makes the content being discussed a moving target, derailing attempts at consensus. -- A D Monroe III( talk) 02:01, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
We all know that article talk pages are for discussing problems with the article. Your recent article talk page comments seem to accuse me of being the problem. If true, this should go to one of the Administrator Noticeboard pages, where problem editors can be remedied. Making such accusations on article talk pages cannot fix this kind of problem, but can only add acrimony and make reaching consensus harder. In my experience, content dispute discussions go much smoother when other editors aren't even mentioned, which I've heard expressed as "discuss edits, not editors". -- A D Monroe III( talk) 02:12, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
- I'd like to chime in here myself, and thank
User:A D Monroe III for his collegial approach in creating this thread. I recollect editing with
User:Valkyrie Red many years ago and I have a vague memory of experiencing some hot temper from that user when we disagreed. First, I'd like to welcome you back, Valkyrie Red. It is good to see we're both still alive to argue about such comparatively minor points of ACW lore. Second, the passion and knowledge which Valkyrie Red brings to the table are formidable and could be enormously useful in helping lots of content area works get improved. We have missed you. Third, I think the subject of this disagreement is a very important point about which to disagree. It may be impossible for us to utilize the results parameter in the infobox, since the outcome of the battle is legitimately arguable. I'll make my points in that discussion, but thank you both for being willing to discuss on talk.

- With regards to you Mr. Monroe, all I'll say is that you lose good faith when you engage in an edit war, abandon discussions that don't cater to your opinion, and engage in acts of hypocrisy. Valkyrie Red ( talk) 23:11, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Greatest of All Time. 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:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
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. FMSky ( talk) 22:52, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Westbrick
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 Westbrick requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 October 23. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

In the case where there is a prequel developed after the initial film, we would consider that to be "followed by". For the Star Wars films, although they started with the later films and then went into the prequels, it is more helpful for readers who know nothing of the topic to know what came first. These films were several decades apart and resulted in different special effects, new actors, and more developed techniques from the director and crew. Although it may be confusing which may come first, there should always be a section in the article that talks about any prequels/sequels to clarify for the reader. There is a current discussion going on at WT:FILM if you would like further thoughts by other editors. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 ( talk • contrib) 20:35, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Hello there fellow Wikipedians! I need to help to make Wikipedia a more reliable source of information. For this I am talking about the Battle of Gettysburg Article, which was indeed a decisive victory for the North but unfortunately there is a user who uses articles written by himself to claim that it wasn't a victory. Someone please aid me!-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 14:30, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
- Firstly, any and all facts relating to the Battle of Gettysburg, victory or not, must be verified, by independant reliable sources. And if either you or the other user are using your own original research it is unacceptable for the article. You must discuss this on the talk page with this other user and if the dispute continues then follow the steps laid out in Wikipedia:Dispute resolution requests. -- œ ™ 15:33, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

If your only goal was to recruit editors to "join in" and take your side over another's to "help you prove a point" then no, I guess I didn't help at all, as that is NOT what the helpme template is for. I suggest you read the advice I gave above regarding dispute resolution. -- œ ™ 15:21, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
Yes. You asked if the victory was "decisive". Most commentators seem to think so. If you look at the other articles on Wikipedia in other languages, for example, they pretty much all say "Decisive Union Victory". The German one though is cautious like this article is at present, and calls it a "Union Victory". Personally I think it was decisive as it is considered the turning point of the war, and after it the Confederates went into headlong retreat. The Union was also easily able to replace the 25% casualties. The Confederacy was unable to replace its 33% losses. All and all, it was a disaster for the South.

Kevin Rutherford (

- It sounds like you are involved in a content dispute here, one that has been going on for almost three and a half years. I am willing to mediate it, but I am not going to get involved. The fact that you have also used a sock to edit-war here also makes me less inclined to help.

- I assume that you mean this edit. I would not, personally, consider that to be a personal attack, or in breach of any Wikipedia policies, therefore I do not think any further action is necessary.
- If you wish to pursue the matter (which I do not advise), you could either discuss it directly with the other user, or raise it on Wikiquette alerts.
- However, my advice is to drop the STICK and have a nice cup of tea or something. Best, Chzz ► 22:11, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
Ideally, there would be an infobox for the conflict since even our articles on fictional wars use the infobox (see One Year War for an example), however the addition of the box can be a tricky issue if the people who keep tabs on the article decide to remove the box based on consensus. If this is the case, then I would recommend leaving the article infobox-free and instead work on gaining consensus for the reintroduction of the box. Remember, at the end of the day all the box does in summaries what going to be presented in the article, so its loss is not necessarily a devastating thing, it just means that those visiting the article will have to actually read through the material to get a feel for it rather than glance at the infobox and get a rough overview of it. TomStar81 ( Talk) 00:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- I'm incline to wait awhile longer before making a move here, I want to make sure that everything is out in the open and that usually means waiting until the last of the comments added is at least 24-hours old. When that happens I think a straw poll will be in order to determine the consensus for the infobox on the page.

- Coordinators be thou for the contributors. We exist not to force adherence to policy or guideline, but help bring people to an agreement on how things should appear in articles. To this end therefore I look to consensus to establish a course of action, in this manner, I leave the major decision to the editors and place myself in a position to enforce whatever consensus emerges in a poll.

Hi, Valkyrie Red. I've been trying to help maintain the Trojan War box, which I consider more of a navigational template. (By the way, I did come to your page to ask for input when you fell silent during the creation of the Trojan War nav template, because I felt that since you had been a major voice, you should be heard before finalizing. I'm sorry you weren't able to participate in finishing that.) But I'm not really interested in taking a lead role in the article. You should probably go to the Trojan War talk page.

Greetings, It was recently suggested that WikiProject United States History might be inactive or semiactive and that it might be beneficial to include it in the list of projects supported by WikiProject United States.
I have started a discussion and will contact each of the active members for their comments and input on the suggestion. Please take a moment and add your comments to the discussion or feel free to contact me if you have any questions. -- Kumioko ( talk) 19:43, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

A few things regarding your edits here and here.
- That section is contentious. And the standing consensus is that it is appropriate in covering the overall development, use, exploitation, and critiques of the character. Please go back through the archives of the articles talk page to see this.
- In order for this to be removed, an active change in consensus needs to be shown. Not just a single editor stating "I see no need..." It is unfortunate that you did not get an immediate response to you talk page post of July 21, but that does not show active change.
- Your semi-bold removal did get the response indicative of the standing consensus, whether you want to hear it or not. Along with a return to the status quo.
- Repeating the removal after that without bothering to return to the talk page can be taken as the start of disruptive editing in most cases. Doing it with sourced material that is in place with a strong consensus could be seen as worse.
- J Greb ( talk) 13:20, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- Since it's come up again. this is disruptive and editing in bad faith. You have been pointed to the talk page and the archives for the consensus on this. If you cannot work with in that and continue to edit this way you will be blocked for vandalism. - J Greb ( talk) 01:24, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Hello
Please don't create implausible or useless redirects.
- Mr. Poppers Penguins (film) is either broken English or catering to a French-language aesthetic. Neither is a reason to create it as a redirect.
- ディックグレイソン would possibly be useful if it were a Japanese-language topi and the article has started out there instead of under an English title. It's less than pointless for an English-language topic on the English-language Wikipedia.
And, so you are clear on it, a warning. Please so not engage in personal attacks as you did here.

Yeah, no point in mentioning names since no one even cares, but what do you do if someone acts like they own the page and will restrict others from making changes just cause they have a set way of operating the page? Are there any rules that can be used, like any WP pages? Thanks!-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 20:45, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lego Marvel Super Heroes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Nemesis ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

hi — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.66.186.136 ( talk) 02:56, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
I happened to notice your comment on Corvoes talk page:
- I want to discuss a change because that's my right as a contributor to Wikipedia, but no one will respond even after using the ping template. How am I supposed to initiate a logic-based discussion if no one is willing to discuss?
Just a friendly reminder: Wikipedia talk pages are about improving its articles, not a general discussion forum. Meaning don't feel bad if nobody responds to any general discussion or questions, it could well be that people don't see any direct relevance to Wikipedia. In that case, you will be better off posting your thoughts elsewhere.
Therefore, assuming your ideas directly concern our articles, my best advice is: Be WP:BOLD and go ahead and edit the article(s) in question! This will normally trigger a response, assuming not everyone agrees with you. Perhaps you will be reverted, but you should normally expect that editor to explain why, thus starting the discussion you seek :)

I want to enact a change on a page and presented the idea on said page's talk page. However, it's been a couple of days and no one has responded. This would be a relatively large change, so I can't Be Bold. How do I get others to participate?-- Valkyrie Red ( talk) 12:57, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- If it is an article the best way is to put the article up for an RfC, as seen here WP:RFC some people get notifications of the RFC and will respond to it, though I do recommend contacting the other primary editors and other editors of the article by leaving them a message on their talk page, to let them know that there is an ongoing RFC a article that they contributed to. -- Clarkcj12 ( talk) 16:31, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
A few things regarding image files
- Try not to change files in articles by uploading a different image over the file already on Wikipedia. The file you want to place should be uploaded under a different file name.
- When you upload a file, make sure that the non-free media information and use rationale is consistent with the image you upload. Discrepancies between the two will lead to the image being removed.
- Non-free image are of limited size. With regard to comic book character, 1,500 pixel × 2,049 pixel is well above the acceptable limit.
And it seems you are still creating implausible redirects. Please stop that.
- J Greb ( talk) 11:24, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
- To clarify with the implausible redirects:
- Redirects for incorrect capitalization are not wanted are not wanted.
- Redirects from non-standard abbreviations are not wanted.
- Redirects from non-standard or fanish alternate titles are not wanted.
- Also:
- Don't disrupt radio or television station articles to create unwanted redirects. Don't even add hat notes pointing to the other article.
- Don't disrupt dab pages to add the above type of links.
- - J Greb ( talk) 22:02, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
You are starting up some WP:3RR for this one genre edit so please stop reverting my edits. It was my original edit to call it an action thriller. I saw the movie and it was a thriller without a doubt. Don't think this is true? Watch the movie and get a clue. - Theironminer ( talk) 19:22, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for explaining the removal.
Now, please do it on your initial edits when you remove chunks of text that have a reference. Otherwise it looks like awkward at best.

Nominations for the Military history WikiProject historian and newcomer of the year awards now open!
On behalf of the Military history WikiProject's Coordinators, we would like to extend an invitation to nominate deserving editors for the 2015 Military historian of the year and Military history newcomer of the year awards. The nomination period will run from 7 December to 23:59 13 December, with the election phase running from 14 December to 23:59 21 December. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 05:05, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Arrowverse shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Not true at all. I revert irrelevant information all the time. When I say "irrelevant", I don't mean that the time remove it is irrelevant, but that information is not needed for Wikipedia. It's a minute detail. Fictional characters are fictional, not real. They don't have "full names". We go by how they are credited. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 12:22, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- It's the comic book, this is the show. It links to him. that's only relevant to comic fans. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 22:16, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
- What part of my comment suggests high and mighty status? I'm a comic fan. I also know how to differentiate between the TV show and the comic books and not including information that is only relevant to a small set of readers. The average reader that just enjoys The Flash isn't going to care that Cisco's full name is "Francisco" (and last night wasn't even the first time it was used). We operate from an objective approach. That is, character names are their credited names, not the in-universe name. That's why Harvey Dent is not "Two-Face" on the "Dark Knight" page. Why Thea is just Thea, and not "Thea Deardon Queen". BIGNOLE (Contact me) 02:19, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
- I'm a huge Superman fan. I'm more DC than Marvel period, hence why I tend to write for the DC related pages (Smallville, Arrow, The Flash, etc.). BIGNOLE (Contact me) 22:18, 1 March 2016 (UTC)

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.
For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert ( talk) & MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
Greetings,
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
- tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
- adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
- updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
- creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Please participate in ongoing discussions of content under dispute; editing while ignoring such discussions is generally considered disruptive, as it makes the content being discussed a moving target, derailing attempts at consensus. -- A D Monroe III( talk) 02:01, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
We all know that article talk pages are for discussing problems with the article. Your recent article talk page comments seem to accuse me of being the problem. If true, this should go to one of the Administrator Noticeboard pages, where problem editors can be remedied. Making such accusations on article talk pages cannot fix this kind of problem, but can only add acrimony and make reaching consensus harder. In my experience, content dispute discussions go much smoother when other editors aren't even mentioned, which I've heard expressed as "discuss edits, not editors". -- A D Monroe III( talk) 02:12, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
- I'd like to chime in here myself, and thank
User:A D Monroe III for his collegial approach in creating this thread. I recollect editing with
User:Valkyrie Red many years ago and I have a vague memory of experiencing some hot temper from that user when we disagreed. First, I'd like to welcome you back, Valkyrie Red. It is good to see we're both still alive to argue about such comparatively minor points of ACW lore. Second, the passion and knowledge which Valkyrie Red brings to the table are formidable and could be enormously useful in helping lots of content area works get improved. We have missed you. Third, I think the subject of this disagreement is a very important point about which to disagree. It may be impossible for us to utilize the results parameter in the infobox, since the outcome of the battle is legitimately arguable. I'll make my points in that discussion, but thank you both for being willing to discuss on talk.

- With regards to you Mr. Monroe, all I'll say is that you lose good faith when you engage in an edit war, abandon discussions that don't cater to your opinion, and engage in acts of hypocrisy. Valkyrie Red ( talk) 23:11, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Greatest of All Time. 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:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
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. FMSky ( talk) 22:52, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

Just a quick correction to the prior message about the 2022 MILHIST coordinator election! I ( Hog Farm) didn't proofread the message well enough and left out a link to the election page itself in this message. The voting will occur here; sorry about the need for a second message and the inadvertent omission from the prior one. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 17:42, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Westbrick
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 Westbrick requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 October 23. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
