Minor edits edit

  Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. --SubSeven (talk) 03:23, 31 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Your edits edit

Hi, SpiritedMichelle. I understand you're a new editor, and your enthusiasm is beneficial and constructive. Welcome aboard. A couple of things: As per the guideline at WP:DATED, Wikipedia can't say things like "currently" or "recently" since such terms quickly become meaningless with time. Best to use such phrasing as "As of October 2013" or similar.

Also, I've noticed you enter a lot of raw URLs for citing. I ask you not do so but rather add properly cited footnotes, which include, at minimum, an article's title, date, newspaper/magazine name, and author (last name first). It's also good to add the date the article was accessed. You can find more information at WP:CITE, WP:FOOTNOTE and related pages.

Finally, I've noticed you sometimes add uncited claims in Reception sections, saying things like, "Many critics felt that this was the best episode of the season." Aside from Wikipedia needing exceptional sources for such superlative claims, you need to actually find and quote critics saying that particular thing.

I know this seems like a lot to take in, but like anything else, being a Wikipedia editor takes practice. The most important thing to keep in mind is that this is an encyclopedia. If newspaper are the first draft of history, an encyclopedia should be the final word: impeccably sourced concrete statements as neutral and accurate as humanly possible. Thanks again for joining us and Happy Wiki'ing! --Tenebrae (talk) 05:48, 31 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Welcome, SpiritedMichelle. I've reverted or changed your edits to Thiago Soares, Marianela Núñez, Federico Bonelli, Lauren Cuthbertson, Sarah Lamb, Zenaida Yanowsky, and Maria Kochetkova that added the phrasing "As of November 2013..." to the lead sentences. See above, or send me a note, for an explanation.
Also, thank you for decapitalizing the title "principal" in those lead sentences. Dkreisst (talk) 03:48, 12 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Hi Spirited Michelle. Thank you for the note, that was a fine use of user talk space. Often, users like to keep both sides of a conversation on one page. If you feel this way, post your response here on this page: I will be monitoring it for any response.
Your edits were perfect based on the information User:Tenebrae gave to you with the link to WP:DATED. I changed the sentences because I felt that, while it seems that dancers' hierarchical positions do change pretty regularly in the ballet world, the status of the dancers was permanent enough that a specific date did not need to be attached to the time the article was last updated. That is, when the intro sentence reading "X is a British ballet dancer dancing as a soloist with the Royal Ballet" is no longer true, due to a change of company, promotion, or change of profession, the sentence can simply be updated when that happens. I found the style page Wikipedia:As of useful when trying to figure this out.
If you feel that the article would not be updated quickly enough, feel free to change it back. If you have any other questions about wikipedia, please feel free to drop me a note. Also, consider checking out Wikipedia:WikiProject Ballet and remember to be bold! Dkreisst (talk) 06:55, 12 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
You are doing just fine. Thank you for your work and for your patience in dealing with wikipedia policy. Let me know if you have any more questions. Dkreisst (talk) 00:57, 15 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hello! edit

Hi! Thanks for adding the visitor numbers info to the British Museum page. Sorry to keep on about this (as it's been mentioned on your talk page before), but that wasn't a minor edit (as you actually added information and a reference). You do a lot of grammar corrections, which is great, and are classed as minor edits, even though they're important. But when you're adding info or categories or references, then they're not minor.

Anyway, any more info you've got for the British Museum would be great - given how important it is it'd be good to improve the page!

Thanks and all the best, GPRutter (talk) 09:05, 20 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi again. Thanks! Yes, that's fine to respond there, or here - people tend to check back when they've left a message (on your contributions list it shows whether your edit is the current last edit or not). No problem, and do ask if there's anything that you're not sure about (although I've just re-started editing, so they've made some changes!). GPRutter (talk) 20:36, 21 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

deOrphaning script edit

Hello everyone! I was just working on responding to a couple bug reports for a script that I worked up as part of a request from this project, and I noticed that only a couple people (who weren't even on this mailing list) are actually using the script. A little history on the script: In March of 2014, Jim Cartar came to my user talk page and said he needed some help in acquiring a script for a backlog drive that he was working on that could keep track of and score deOrphanings for a scored backlog drive. I took that request to the project's talk page (BackLog Drive "DO" (De-Orphaning) script proposal) and there was near unanimous support for this. I thought about the proposal and decided the best way to do it was to build a new script (which is still no where near as comprehensive as Manishearth's OrphanTabs) and build into it a mechanism that will make BLD scoring easy.

What I'm wondering at this point is, since there appears to be only two people using the script, should I continue to develop this script with a goal of using it for scoring BLDs or just debug the existing script and leave it at that. Thanks for any replies or comments.

If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Opted-out of message delivery to your user talk page.

Please solve the matter out of Goodwill edit

I am falsely accused of getting paid by the wiki editor... I hereby state that i have no personal relationship with the celebrity. I am an honorable journalist who saw something wrong and went ahead to correct the mistakes. Kindly observe that all sources are credible n verified. Yet the template is giving a wrong message about our favorite celebrity and me when im just an honest editor. I seek clean up of the templates as i was being a honest journalist.

Incorrect renaming of articles edit

Please stop renaming articles while ignoring its content. The content of the article should come first, not its resembles with the titles of the other articles. When you title an article "Dance in Ukraine", the implication is that the article will describe the dances of different nationalities within the same country, which are clearly more than just Ukrainians, there are quite enough minority groups, which also have their own dances. However, the article instead describes the national dance of Ukrainians as an ethnic group and also covers its performance outside of the country in other countries. It turns out that the title of the article does not correspond to the content at all, whereas the previous one was correct. And that's not to say that renaming the articles on traditional dance to general dance of the country is also wrong. Especially given that the article continues to be linked with an article in another language describing only traditional dances. Solidest (talk) 16:51, 6 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Review your Stardust edit edit

You recently removed from the Stardust article the only non-lede mention of the fact that the novel was adapted into a film. Given that it was a major feature film with big-name stars, frankly it deserved more space in "adaptations" than the one sentence it had. A (sourced) sentence about the film remains in the introduction, and given that the introduction is supposed to be a summary of the body of the article, it should appear in that adaptation section as well.

I have retired from article editing, or I'd reintroduce the material myself. I do request that you review your edit and consider reinsertion. --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:00, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
