Some bubble tea for you!

Excellent anti-vandal work, go buy some bubble tea for yourself (irl), or some other food if you don't like bubble tea. Consider applying for some rollbacker/pending changes reviewer role, you seem to be a nice editor :) Justiyaya (talk) 07:26, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
@Justiyaya: Thanks for the tea! I would, except I will get sucked into it again and I can't stop! Marriage and life suffer... Cheers Adakiko (talk) 07:29, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
Oh... if you feel addicted to editing Wikipedia consider taking a forced wikibreak Justiyaya (talk) 08:29, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
@Justiyaya: I'd need an app so my significant other could force a lockout. Also should tie it into my calendar. ;o) I'm over doing it for tonight. I should be doing other things! Thanks for the advise! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 09:10, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

Mannur

  • Moved from my user page to here. Adakiko (talk) 05:54, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

I don't think. I did anything wrong with the edits on Mannur. It is my village. Pls can you undo the changes. I think I have to escalate this to another admin in the Wikipedia team. @Viswaprabha — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anoopmannur (talk • contribs) 05:08, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

@Anoopmannur: I moved your edit content from my user page: user:Adakiko to here as talk goes on one's talk page, not my user page. See help:talk pages
You are quite welcome to bring this up with anyone you wish so long as it doesn't amount to wp:Canvassing. Discussion about article content generally should go on the article's talk page: talk:Mannur
In regard to your email to me, I agree, I don't have much idea about Mannur. I didn't undo it for the factual correctness of your edit, but the style, wp:verifiability, and formatting of your edit. The latter I have a bit more knowledge of than Mannur. You might be able to get help from one of your fellow countrymen at Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics Cheers Adakiko (talk) 05:54, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Ukrah or Nagarukhra topic

Dear friend, i here to pay attention to the article of Ukrah. Actually Ukrah is not the Village, its a Small sattlement under the Village of Nagarukhra. Thats why, here i wish to you to change the name of the article Ukrah into Nagarukhra. Even you can check in google and its every govt. names are included as Nagarukhra, Ukrah just a 'mouja' in Nagarukhra. Here my request to you, please solve the naming problem of the article.

Oliver Twist page

Hi Adakiko, I just saw the message you sent me about my edit to the Oliver Twist page, and the edit related to the quotation of Nancy as a 'whoring slut.' I still think the quote, which I think is from Frank Donovan, should be omitted because it doesn't add any important information about Nancy and doesn't use neutral language to describe Nancy e.g. it doesn't merely say 'Nancy was a prostitute who was killed by Sikes.' Apologies if I sound annoyed, don't mean to, and I'm new to this Wikipedia editing, but I'm not sure why my edit was considered unhelpful? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Raccy745 (talk • contribs) 07:46, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

@Raccy745: You were wp:edit warring which is strongly frowned upon. If you want to make such a change, I would recommend discussing the issue on talk:Oliver Twist and reach wp:consensus before proceeding. Personally, I have no issue with the wording towards the made-up character Nancy. Resources you might find useful: wp:help, wp:dispute resolution, and wp:BRD. The help pages accessible in the left-most column. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 07:57, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

Undid your reversion of the Tommy Kirk article

I was in the midst of touchups on the Tommy Kirk article when you reverted it. I saw you reason "unexplained deletion". Having checked through the change comparison, I suspect you might have reacted without careful inspection to the big gap after "ON TELEVISION", which I did not delete, but rather converted to lower case. The change comparison software seems to have failed to recover sync until long after that, but if you check the text on both sides of the gap, I believe you'll see that it's all there.

All the changes that I made (or at least intended to make) are inserting blank spaces to allow the citations to break in sensible spots (so that I can compare citations), inserting non-breaking spaces in some dates, and converting as many text-only citations as coneniently possible into template format. If you find that I've exceeded modest touchups of the internals, please go ahead and re-do your reversion, but kindly check carefully this time. I'm reasonably confident that you didn't do so before.

Citations missing from JH page

Hello,

Regarding your message about editing the Johnny Hollow page and missing citations. Yes, I was working on getting those. I was talking with one of the band members and I'm helping them update their page. I was going to work on the citations later. However, I can post-pone putting the info up until I get them instead. ClumsyRaven (talk) 19:38, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

@ClumsyRaven: It is a good idea to add citations with your edit. There are many people who monitor changes and will undo unsourced content on sight (like me). See WP:CHALLENGE. It's difficult to save a changed page to see if it gets added later, so they undo immediately. Often to the consternation of the editors and some veteran Wikipedia editors. You do need to mind that WP:COI! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 21:02, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

Josh janakiraman (talk) 07:53, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

this is the anonymous editor vandalising that page 175.145.84.9, reported him to many..but no active response ,for that user's disruptive edits.. Kindly check the history of article meena, for what that user done on fan base. Josh janakiraman (talk) 07:55, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

@Josh janakiraman: You had deleted content and source without leaving an edit summary in that group of edits, which is why I reverted you. I would strongly recommend leaving edit summaries. If there is significant recent vandalism, request page protection at wp:RFPP. Suggest reading other RfPPs to get an idea of how to make a brief request.
Please read wp:vandalism as to what is and is not considered such. It has a fairly specific meaning on Wikipedia. Another editor called it a wp:content dispute. See wp:dispute resolution I have no interest in the subject of that article. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 08:01, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Important notice

Hi Adakiko,

regarding the article Mark Sargeant, please keep the following points in mind.

  • Per WP:ONUS, part of the verifiability policy, the onus is on you to gain a consensus for the inclusion of material.
  • Per WP:BLPCRIME, part of the BLP policy, "a living person accused of a crime is presumed innocent until convicted by a court of law."
  • Edit warring is not part of the recommended dispute resolution methods.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Best regards,
~ ToBeFree (talk) 11:46, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

@ToBeFree: Thanks for your thoughtful message pointing this out! Need to stop and think. Sort of thought about it, but I guess I got sucked in. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 11:55, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
No worries, thank you very much for your recent changes patrolling. I've positively noticed your work on the other AIV cases. 🙂 ~ ToBeFree (talk) 11:57, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
~ ToBeFree I also may have erred here. Some brand new user kept deleting a sexual harassment allegation that was a few years old and appeared verifiable. I suspected the user was solely trying to remove negative information from an article, possibly due to a COI or other bias. Please could you confirm if my reverts were problematic? I know BLPs are super important. Thanks Such-change47 (talk) 12:00, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Reverting actually unexplained content removal is usually fine. The removal was indeed unexplained first, so I can't complain about interpreting this removal as likely intentional damage. Most similar article content removal is vandalism after all. The user then continued to remove the material, this time providing edit summaries explaining their view. In most cases, when someone explicitly complains about "defamatory content", that's a good point to stop reverting and to thoroughly analyze the situation. Even if you are completely convinced that the material a) qualifies for inclusion in the article (WP:UNDUE may be a concern), and b) is completely perfectly verifiable: Even then, we should wonder whether it's really worth insisting on keeping the material. Someone strongly objects to its inclusion, so the best next step is starting a discussion with them. This could be done by creating a new section on the article's talk page, and then inviting the user to that section. {{Please see}} can be a helpful template for doing so.
Especially if the case is clear, it should be easy to find a consensus for including the material. Opinions can be invited by leaving a neutral discussion invitation message at a relevant noticeboard such as WP:NPOVN or WP:BLPN, or by requesting a third opinion.
A common problem, however, is that the other party doesn't like to discuss. You invite them to a discussion, they stay silent, you restore the material after a week of silence, and they suddenly revert you again. Dealing with such cases is described by WP:DISCFAIL, one of the very few essays (non-policies, non-guidelines) that are actually worth reading in my opinion.
To answer your actual question, Such-change47, mmh, well, you've joined the edit war when it was already at a point to better stop. So I'd say yes, that was problematic, but it's a common and understandable mistake. No worries. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:16, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
~ ToBeFree thanks very much. Such-change47 (talk) 12:18, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
@ToBeFree:, you're welcome! And, thank you for all of your admin work. I don't know how you admins can deal with this sort of thing! It's some real dedication!
Do you think I should get rollback rights and use Huggle? The Christmas season is soon upon us. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 12:04, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the kind feedback. :)
😄 I'll probably grant rollback on Christmas; you won't need to request it. Granting it right now would be a bit early, though. There are two weeks remaining during which I can see that no further edit warring occurred. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:21, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
@ToBeFree: WP:DISCFAIL is something I've been looking for. I've essentially have been winging it; overwhelmed with policy that isn't easily comprehensible and implementable. Thanks again! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 12:28, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Merry Christmas and a happy rollback

Hello Adakiko: Enjoy the holiday season and winter solstice if it's occurring in your area of the world, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. After reviewing your request, I have added your account to the rollback group. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Users should be informed (or warned) after their edits have been reverted. If warnings repeatedly don't help, WP:ANI is the default place to go. In cases of very clear ongoing intentional damage to the encyclopedia, WP:AIV can be used.
  • Reverting someone's edits may confuse or upset them. Whenever other users message you on your talk page, please take the time to respond to their concerns; accountability is important. For most users who message you, the tone and quality of your answer will permanently influence their opinion about Wikipedia in general.
  • Because the plain default rollback link does not provide any explanatory edit summary, it must not be used to revert good faith contributions, even if these contributions are disruptive. Take the time to write a proper summary whenever you're dealing with a lack of neutrality or verifiability; a short explanation like "[[WP:NPOV|not neutral]]" or "[[WP:INTREF|Please provide a citation]]" is helpful.
  • Rollback may never be used to edit war, which you'll notice to be surprisingly tempting in genuine content disputes. Please especially keep the three-revert rule in mind. If you see others edit warring, please file a report at WP:ANEW. The most helpful essay I've ever seen is WP:DISCFAIL; it is especially important for those who review content regularly.
  • If you encounter private information or threats of physical harm during your patrols, please quickly use Special:EmailUser/Oversight or Special:EmailUser/Emergency; ideally bookmark these pages now. See WP:OS and WP:EMERGENCY for details. If you're regularly patrolling recent changes, you will need both contacts sooner or later, and you'll be happy about the bookmarks.
  • Use common sense.

To try rollback for the first time, you may like to make an edit to WP:Sandbox, and another one, and another one, and then revert the row with one click. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about rollback. Thank you for your time and work in cleaning up Wikipedia. Happy editing!

Best regards,
~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:11, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
Many thanks for amending the Neovenator page for me. My small contribution was collected over a two week period but was not recognised as important until I showed my finds to Dr Phil Manning [Professor of Paleontology at the College of Charleston in South Carolina and Professor of Natural History at the University of Manchester (UK).] He immediately recognised them as from the thereopod Neoventator and contacted Steve Hutt at the Dinosaur Isle Museum, Although fragmentary they indicate an animal much bigger than the holotype and the possibility the site was a 'predator trap' given this was the fourth individual from a relatively small area.

In defense of Ligers

I have a very valid reason to remove info from the Liger article. You see the article talks about Panthera Hybrids being susceptible to "diseases". This is obvious evidence that Wikipedians hate Ligers. For starters, this animal rights groups never gave any actual evidence of weather they did had diseases or not. Second, this is in reference to the Liger, not Panthera hybrids as a whole. Third, they stated that only with captive animals, but they never said anything about wild Panthera hybrids. Not to mention that sayin g that Lions cannot breed with Tigers is incorrect. Its scientifically confirmed that all species within the same genus are able to be attracted, mate and successfully crossbreed. There is also evidence that Panthera hybrids where very common in ancient times:https://markgelbart.wordpress.com/tag/tiger-x-snow-leopard-hybrid/. Not to mention you gave a reference to Carol Bazkin, who has a reputation of being hypocritical for saying that she did not want to see big cats in captivity yet she does exactly the same. Not to mention there is the possibility she feed her husband to tigers. There is also evidence that Humans mated with Neanderthals, this is no different from Panthera hybrids. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 56FireLeafs (talk • contribs) 08:01, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

About the European Bon

The page talks about how the european bison was SUPPOSEDELY a hybrid even though there is evidence that its result of incomplete lineage sorting during divergence of Bos and Bison from their common ancestors and that the European Bison is the descendant of Bison Shoenski, and the fact that the steppe bison lived alongside the european bison. But even more, there is evidence that breeding bos with bison has result in genetic pollution of bison. 56FireLeafs 7:15 January 17 2022 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 56FireLeafs (talk • contribs) 00:21, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Removal of false, libelous, and retracted reference

The revisions which were just made to "Young Warriors" aka "Graduates of Malibu High" are accurate. The LA Times article referenced was false and libelous and retracted by the publication.

After becoming more familiar with Wikipedia policies I understand the reasons for your concerns and undoing my edits. I certainly had no intention of creating an edit war. The intention is to remove defamatory content which was discredited and the false claims acknowledged and reversed in writing by the perpetrator. The newspaper article containing the false and defamatory content was linked to multiple Wikipedia subjects. I will gladly locate and provide the substantiating references and documentation to support the need for my edits on the pages of the affected subjects. The statement - which follows - by @ToBeFree on another Adakiko section is directly relevant here: "In most cases, when someone explicitly complains about "defamatory content", that's a good point to stop reverting and to thoroughly analyze the situation. Even if you are completely convinced that the material a) qualifies for inclusion in the article (WP:UNDUE may be a concern), and b) is completely perfectly verifiable: Even then, we should wonder whether it's really worth insisting on keeping the material."

What content do you consider as "This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. (January 2022)"? Why did you add that the Church Background section has no citation when there is a citation already added. - EarlneyZ (talk)

@EarlneyZ: fixed? Adakiko (talk) 11:36, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
@Adakiko: You have to answer my question so it can be fixed. What content do you consider as advertisement? Why did you add that the Church Background section has no citation when there is a citation already added? EarlneyZ (talk) 11:34 AM, Friday, January 28, 2022 (UTC)
@EarlneyZ: The article had content that was written in a promotional matter. That was cleaned up, so I removed it. You had removed the tag without indicating that it had been remedied, so I replaced it.
I appear to have missed the citation, so I thought the section was unsourced. I removed the unsourced section tag. Adakiko (talk) 11:46, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
@Adakiko: Ok that's fair. Thank you. I'm a new contributor so I'm still getting the hang of it. EarlneyZ (talk) 11:57 AM, Friday, January 28, 2022 (UTC)

The Death Of Jimi Hendrix

Old Spanish Fort Edits

Hi Adakiko, Thanks for the helpful links and reminders. I have a particular passion for a couple of topics that I want to make sure are described accurately in WP and so I’ve recently made some edits and additions to two articles. I don’t expect that I will be doing a host of other edits on other pages. Was your letter in direct reference to the edits I had made? If so did you have specific recommendations for corrections? 

One of the edits was to satisfy a “citation needed” which I did. Unfortunately, I managed to insert duplicate references and am not sure how to remove one. Nor do I know how to have the “citation needed” removed. 
Also, how do you cite the page and para where the specific supporting text can be found in that reference?

Thanks for your help in limiting the damage caused by 34.19g.63.41, a suspected sockpuppet of Sauraved. One note, however: WP:INDICSCRIPT "only applies to articles that are predominantly India-related and is excluded from, among others, articles about ... any of India's neighbouring countries." In other words, it doesn't apply to predominantly Bangladesh-related articles, in which it is common to display the native name in Bengali script in the lead and/or the infobox. --Worldbruce (talk) 07:14, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Editing the article on inferential confusion

Hi Adakiki, You recently left a message on my talk page about my article. I wanted to check with you if your message was because you felt my references weren't reliable? Because I tried to make sure all the references I used were peer reviewed and had a good impact factor, so can you please let me know what else I can do to improve this aspect. Also I made sure none of my sentences were copy pasted so can you please let me know what you felt is copy pasted so I can work on that, thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Roosmuff (talk • contribs) 11:38, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

@Roosmuff: That was simply a welcome page with some useful sources. No issues there.
Please avoid wp:primary sources even though they are peer-reviewed. See WP:SCHOLARSHIP. Peer-viewed doesn't guarantee that the content is valid; just indicates those few reviewers didn't spot any issues; if they even read the paper and/or looked at the data. Lots of peer-viewed papers that are relegated to the dust-bin or even retracted. Especially those that question Einstein. ;o) It is preferable to uses secondary sources such as a meta analysis published by a reliable publisher. See wp:reliable sources and WP:RSP.

I did a lot more than remove dead links. The article is full of spammy peacock content and most of the footnotes that weren't dead were primary sources from J&B's own website.

@Just Another Cringy Username: I have no problem with your removal of the peacock/coi material. Regarding the other material: See wp:KDL. Also, see Template:Citation needed#How to respond to this tag. e.g. don't delete just because it's tagged. A number of the citation needed tags were just added. It's best to remove content in chucks rather than all at once. It allows for selective reverts. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 21:58, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

It is appreciated that an expert edit an article. Regarding using your own expertise, please see wp:No original research. Per wp:verifiability (WP:V), content must wp:cite a wp:reliable resource (RS). People often want to look for further information or check on the validity of content. Unfortunately, "2001:8A0:7F0F:4F00:1977:AC51:5105:A159" doesn't say much about your expertise, so please cite RS.

NaPTAN edit

Hello Adakiko,

Thank you for your message - that was the first time I’ve made a Wikipedia edit so I didn’t think to explain it.

However, the edit should stand. I removed a link to website which no longer exists, and which will be confusing to readers if they click the link and get redirected to an error. I work in the Department for Transport on the NaPTAN team, and there are a number of other edits that need to be made to the Wikipedia page. Do I need to explain every one? If so, how should I do this?

Best wishes,

Lucy 167.98.171.170 (talk) 12:47, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

There are archive sites that may have a copy. https://archive.org is one. wp:List of web archives on Wikipedia Per wp:KDL (keep dead links), a dead link is left as that indicated the content was verifiable at one time. You can add a {{dl|Date=February 2022}}.
It is usually a good idea to leave an wp:edit summary. That can help find edits by browsing the wp:page history. Also good if you've added content where a nearby citation supports your edit or if there may be a misunderstanding as to why you have made the edit. A wp:POV type of edit for instance.
Hope this helps! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 19:58, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Maschsee

Please check the dimensions of the maschsee (max length = 2.4 km, max width 0.5 km, avarage depth = 2 m, surface area = 0.78 km³ = 780 000 m³) with the volume stated on the english page (160 000m³) and you will see that there is missing a "0". Also 1 600 000m³ is the value of the germam wikipedia page for the maschsee. --217.6.221.68 (talk) 11:06, 25 February 2022 (UTC) best wishes from Hannover, Olaf

A "lake" that is a cross consisting of two channels 2.4km x 1 metre wide and one a 0.5km x 1 meter x 2 metre average depth would have a volume of 5,800 m³. Shall I change it to that value? That fits the criteria.
Without a citation (which I added), it is very difficult to verify a value. I also tagged the article for lacking footnotes. Please see help:referencing for beginners and wp:verifiability as to why citations are needed. Making Wikipedia verifiable would be helpful. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 12:13, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

David A. R. White

Hi,

I was the one that was trying to edit the David A. R. White page. Sorry about the external link deal. I'm kind of new to editing and I was just trying to make it more clear. I was going to the original link say "archive" and adding the latest link to replace it. Why did you revert it and why is it "inappropriate for an encyclopedia"?

Also, I added more info on David White in the info box. Did you mean to remove that? I thought it would make more sense to put that info there.

Clone Hero page developer section

Yeah, it is incorrect that Ryan Foster and Matthew Sitton are the developers of Clone Hero. Matthew is the lead developer, and Ryan Foster is the creator, but the game is developed by a bigger team, there are more coders, and a bunch of artists, and they are often referred as "CH Team" which is what I added as it is correct. You can check this by going into the official CH discord server where you can see every member of the CH Team. They also have, in the official Clone Hero website news section; 2 news regarding the team, 1 for the Art Team and 1 for the Coding Team. As they are publicly referred as the "CH Team" that's what the developer name is.

In any case, revert your last change to that so it's fixed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.5.207.78 (talk) 03:39, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

I don't care who developed it as long as the edit wp:cites a wp:reliable source (RS). Per wp:PROVEIT, the onus is on you to properly cite it. Adakiko (talk) 03:44, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, I get where you are coming from, but you are also not giving a source that says that only Ryan and Matthew developed it, so we are on the same page, by that criteria neither you nor I should have credited "CH Team" and "Ryan and Matthew", in any case, here you have the two news from the official Clone Hero website that lists all the members of the team, both the coders and the artists (and even then, there are more coders, as you can see in their discord server and the news I'm linking here).

Coders: https://clonehero.net/2019/06/16/a-look-on-the-line.html

Which cites Srylain (Ryan Foster) and Matthew as TWO of the coders in the team, not the ENTIRE coding team.

Artists: https://clonehero.net/2019/04/28/a-sight-to-behold.html

The team has changed over the time, and more people has been added and some people has left, so it's pretty clear that CH team is the way to credit them, as it is how they have been calling themselves for years, unless you want to cite every single one of the team members in the developer section of the page. You tell me.

Also, the wiki is not a reliable source of information as it was discontinued in 2019. And even by following the wiki, there are, again, way more than 2 developers.

At this point you might want a screenshot of one of the developers confirming what I'm saying (which I can get), otherwise I don't understand what more reliable sources you want to not keep undoing the changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.29.47.16 (talk) 20:50, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

FYI: repeated reverting is called wp:Edit warring. We are expected to discuss things, reach wp:Consensus, then make changes per consensus. See wp:dispute resolution and wp:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle (BRD). The state of the page should remain in the original state until consensus is reached.
This discussion probably should be held on talk:Clone Hero.
How do you find a list of developers? If it's on the game's credits as a list of developers, you can cite the game itself. You need to add the citation to your edit. People wanting to check it out are not going to look at the wp:edit summaries. It is best to avoid blogs, wp:self-published sources, and use secondary sources.
To cite the game, just add something like <ref>Clone Hero V1.1 game credits</ref> Don't copy from the editor, the nowiki stuff shouldn't be copied. If it's more complicated, such as a web source, use the {{cite web}} wp:template. See help:referencing for beginners. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 00:32, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Stuart Olof Agrell

If you had looked carefully, you would have noticed at the bottom of the page, Agrell's paper on Deerite, Howieite and Zussmanite. Agrell is someone I knew personally, and I did a mineral trade with him when I was doing postdoctoral work under the future Sir Alan Battersby, 1973-1975. The story about how they were named he told me in person. I still have the Deerite, Howieite and Zussmanite specimens he traded to me. Indeed, he even traded to me a specimen of Agrellite, several years before the mineral was officially described and published. (I have since built a considerable Kipawa suite, the largest agrellite weighing about 28 pounds.) Years later, I got to visit the Laytonville locality myself, and collected heavily. Zussmanite was nowhere to be found on the outcrop, but in the gravel road at the base, near the highway, some zussmanite appeared. Then I noticed a huge boulder of it, weighing at least 150 pounds, more than I could lift, let alone carry across a highway. My hammer bounced off the boulder, and I got a few chips. One year later, again driving home from the Tucson mineral show towards Vancouver where I was living at the time, I found the boulder still there, untouched by anyone since my last visit. With daylight fast fading in the late afternoon, I drove North to Laytonville, where there was a general store. The store sold sledge hammers. I bought one and headed south back to the rock. Two or three taps of the sledgehammer reduced it to portable pieces, all of which I still own. Probably some of the largest zussmanite specimens in captivity. John B. Paine III, Ph.D. ex Harvard (organic chemistry) PS: I would recommend you return what I wrote to the article. I have posted heavily to Wikipedia before. I also strongly disagree with putting in citations for everything, if something is being written by an expert. Important knowledge will otherwise get lost.

Hi

Hello, Unfortunately, all the information about Sefidrood Dam is wrong! I live in a city where the Sefidrood Dam is located, but who is the stupid, illiterate and homeless person who intentionally mistakenly included the photo of the Jajrud Dam instead of the real photo of the Sefidrood Dam! Please do not let any illiterate and stupid person change the information about Sefidrood Dam and its photos after I change it, because I live near Sefidrood Dam. Thank you .

Hi, sorry. I’ve just started on Wikipedia, Steve is my dad and just thought I’d update his page. I’d greatly appreciate any support in fixing this error I have made to have this on his page. Thanks! 85.211.105.1 (talk) 11:08, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Morgan Ortagus page

The edit I made to Morgan Ortagus’ page was based on my first hand knowledge of the Ortagus family. I added her two sister’s names. I could also I add that her father goes by Ronnie and is a recovered alcoholic, she had a dog named Napoleon who was spoiled rotten and while her youngest sister Marissa laid in a hospital bed shot all Morgan cared about was that another dog ate Napoleon’s toy. I’ve been to her parents house and have met most of her family in Polk County. Desiderata86 (talk) 13:04, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

You can pull the same information from her Facebook account and instagram account as well as public listings of who has lived in her parents house on Mandy St over the last 29 years. Desiderata86 (talk) 20:18, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello - I received your message about these edits and apologize, as I'm definitely new to this and did not mean to violate any guidelines. However, the information on the page is indeed very outdated and several new press articles can be cited to support the updates. I'd very much appreciate any guidance on how to have these updates published. I do have a relationship to the brand but again, have numerous press sources to support the edits.

Thanks for your edit. The page is still undergoing a major revamp. A number of the references and links got a bit messed up during my last edit.

edit to Herbert Marcuse

"[…] Your recent edit to Herbert Marcuse appears to have added incorrect information, so I removed it for now. […]"

The primary reason to change the label is that fascist is (almost) meaningless as a descriptor.[1] Germany after the Weimar Republic was emphatically not fascist, despite current bien-pensance.

The Soviets implemented International Socialism (through their ComIntern — "International Communism") and tried to export it as a worldwide revolution of the proletariate (hence the Trotskyites who still labour to do this even today) ultimately to be remotely controlled, of course, from Moscow and to which Hitler responded by creating German National Socialism, which was firmly under his control. Both systems are centrally controlled authoritarian dictatorships. And, although fascist Italy (the third Axis power, also a dictatorship) was an ally of Germany in WWII, so too was the Communist government under Stalin before Hitler abandoned the Ribbentrop-Molotov non-aggression pact. Recall that when the Italians capitulated to the Allies Hitler had no qualms about fighting them, too. The only hatred more potent than Leftists' hate of the Right is their hatred of other Leftists. (Fundamentally, the C18 French Revolutionary political dichotomy of Left-Right is particularly unhelpful[2] describing these ideologies, and the logical extension of your undoing of my correction is to use fascist for Stalinism, too, since they are more similar than they are different. Which, I would argue, is unhelpful. And why I edited the entry. For clarity's sake. ;)

Instead of the (emotionally charged) unclear term fascist it would be less confusing to use the historically accurate (English translation) of the authoritarian WWII German National Socialist administration —— a transliteration of the German Nationalsozialismus, known almost universally as Nazi. (Nazi would also be accurate but it, too, has suffered a semantic drift, vide infra.)

________

TLDR; Fascist is not a useful term for Germany during WWII because, firstly, it is not accurate and, secondly, the semantic drift in contemporary culture has eroded what use it still has; it has become a word used to describe anyone who is hated. Just like Putin uses "Nazi" to describe anyone he determines is "anti-Russia", since their Great Patriotic War was against the Germans in what the rest of the globe calls WWII, so that he suffers no cognitive turbulence labelling a Jewish man (Volodymyr Zelenskyy) as a Nazi in an effort to explain his current invasion of Ukraine.
