Hello. The accounts submitted to the EC actually have this membership figure on them. There used to be a citation on the page showing this but it has since been removed - apparently the citation isn't open to the general public yet, but it should be shortly (it's actually over-due but the snap general election has slowed down the electoral commission some what). It's a bit of a waste of time to edit the graph only to change it back in a week or two - especially when I know the information to be valid.

No body edit

The mention of the body does not say that she is dead. But it does connect to her late father’s wish to give her a proper Christian burial. If you are willing to accept that, pls undo previous edit. If not, pls mention in the Talk.

Thank you dear for updating Awami league page back to original edit

Dear, I have noticed that you edited Awami League page back to original one and I'm delighted that you have done that. Unfortunately, users like Vif12vf|,Nzs9|, and ShrewMoon| take down good edits. I strongly advice you to monitor, Awami League page. It is being vandalized by users that are putting on false information and arguing about topics that they do not understand.2607:FEA8:A75B:7100:5A4:16B3:2839:64DB (talk) 18:47 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Please stop Nzs9 from editing edit

Nzs9|, is keeping on editing on Awami league page. He does it and then even has it undone. I would advice to monitor him and report him so he gets a ban from editing on Awami league page.2607:FEA8:A75B:7100:5A4:16B3:2839:64DB (talk) 14:27 20 March 2024 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:A75B:7100:D4B6:874C:1C1F:7A6 (talk)

English varieties edit

  Hello. In a recent edit to the page Civic Platform, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Max19582 (talk) 13:11, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey, thanks a lot for your edit! The word "center" is the valid spelling of the word in American English. This variety of English has been used in the first contribution to the article,[1] and, per MOS:RETAIN, is the one to be used to maintain consistency within the article.
This spelling is consistent with the article's main body, which is something I have recently unified, as spellings in the article used to be inconsistent.
Nonetheless thank you for your contributions! Max19582 (talk) 13:18, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
The long establish spelling of this word on that page before you changed it on 6 April was centre. Helper201 (talk) 15:26, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia articles are supposed to be written consistently in one English variety, and "centre" is not a valid spelling in American English (MOS:ARTCON).
Before April 6, the spelling in the article was inconsistent (used both British and American). I made it consistent, using American English per MOS:RETAIN. Max19582 (talk) 17:18, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I disagree with the assertion that it was inconsistent before then. The centre spelling was very prominently used in the infobox for a long, long time before you changed it with no discussion or consensus. Helper201 (talk) 17:22, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
It was inconsistent per MOS:ARTCON, which states that one particular variety of English should be followed consistently within the article. I don't think prolonged usage of a word in an infobox is enough of a reason to make an exception for it and spell it against the variety's spelling conventions. Max19582 (talk) 17:28, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes and I disagree that one English variety was not consistently used before you changed it. You should get a consensus on the article's talk page and not edit war. This discussion is not for here. Helper201 (talk) 17:32, 10 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Owen Jones article edit

Could you please refrain from edit warring, may I suggest we try and find a compromise? Is Starmers comments so contentions that reference to it needs removing? Maybe there is a way of clarifying that Nick Ferrari actually was the one who said Israel has the right to cut off power and water in a loaded question as he interjected in the midst of Starmer making a response to the previous question during the LBC interview, the video footage does show that.

Sky article has Starmer himself clarify, it is an important citation. https://news.sky.com/story/sir-keir-starmer-seeks-to-clarify-gaza-remarks-following-backlash-from-labour-councillors-12988235

Pennine rambler I was not seeking to edit war. I disagree with your push to include "appeared to". It very clearly states in the LBC source "Israel 'has the right' to withhold power and water from Gaza, says Sir Keir Starmer".[2] Starmer answers the direct question about cutting off power and water very clearly, nor does Ferrari interject, this comes after he answered the prior question. This just comes across as whitewashing. The LBC source directly contradicts the Sky source and its very apparent how clear and direct the answer to the question is. Helper201 (talk) 04:06, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I quoted the sources, you are correct they differ, it was Ferrari's loaded question, please re watch the actual interview. We have a compromise which we both agree to, that is to exclude it as contentious, it is the right choice and is better for the article, "among other issues" as you added is a good way of phrasing. Pennine rambler (talk) 04:32, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
I have re-watched the video, loaded question or not its answered directly and clearly. I'm glad the compromise of eliminating what we both have found contentious is helpful. Helper201 (talk) 04:36, 12 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
