Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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've been wanting for someone to do an NHL lore page! TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 16:05, 2 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Behind the Australian leagues of the AFL and NRL the NHL is my 3rd favourite league. I would add the Anaheim Ducks comeback in the last 2 minutes against Dallas in the First Round of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 03:21, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done and Ill find the tape. (I have NHL GameCenter Live so I'll check the Hurricanes archive.) TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 06:21, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the Fixes!

[edit]

Once again. Thanks for your edits. You did perfect expansion and referencing! I'll try and find more. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:44, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah... I forgot about that. However the Anaheim OT win was notable for the massive comeback, the 0.2 Seconds left goal was notable as it was in Game 4 and tied the series and Game 7's comeback was notable due to it causing an upset. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:52, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have made 4 proposed additions to the page. You can see those on the talkpage. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 03:25, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'll definitely add Paul Kariya's. (I'm an Anaheim Ducks fan.) TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 04:05, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've made three further proposed additions. Once again they're on the articles talk page. Replied!StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 00:18, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Heritage Classic is notable as it was the first NHL regular season outdoor game and the first Winter Classic as it was the beginning of the NHL's annual outdoor games.

I've responded to your ideas on the NHL lore talk page. (My responses are in italics.) TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:14, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added a Vote Count and a response to your Proposed Addition on the Talk Page. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 03:29, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Copied the Source Page

[edit]

I have copied the text of the page incase the page is deleted so that it can be rebuilt. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 01:29, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good to go, I have backups as well. There are devoted NHL wiki sites out there that the page can be posted to if it doesn't survive on Wikipedia. However, I am trying to make the case, as well as revising now to try and gain a "keep" consensus.StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 02:01, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well the AfD was withdrawn. Now to figure out what's actually lore and what isn't. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:06, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I was researching NHL lore a bit ago and I'm going to ask would you happen to be metalnation1984 on Gamefaqs? TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:12, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I hadn't noticed. Do you know why? And yes I am metalnation1984StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 02:22, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Keep with cleanup: I saw some NPOV issues and thought the article deserved to be deleted." as that statement was made by the nominator the AfD was withdrawn however by placing the article up for deletion for that reason he broke this policy

C. Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted

If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for AfD.

That comes from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. TheGRVOfLightning (talk) 02:30, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I had actually noticed the tag was then placed on the talk page, and read those comments afterward. But thanks for clarification. I have added my cleanup and comments to the talk page of the articleStrangeApparition2011 (talk) 02:38, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

GPD Win moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, GPD Win, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. czar 23:22, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: GPD Win (August 29)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
See WP:TOOSOON. Unreleased equipment is normally not notable, and this does not appear to be an exception.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of lost silent films (1925–1929), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Neil Hamilton and Lois Wilson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

PEN15

[edit]

Obviously kids play the PEN 15 game. The show doesn't ever reference the game itself, though, so it doesn't belong in the "premise" section. As for the source, again, it doesn't need a source that says kids play the game, it needs a source that the creators say this is what the name alludes to (even if it's pretty likely). Still, if a note about the title is included, it must go in a different section. – Broccoli & Coffee (Oh hai) 23:03, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to the Titanic (1997 film) plot summary have been removed because they added a significant amount of unnecessary detail. Please avoid excessive detail and high word counts when editing plot summaries/synopses. You may read the plot summary edit guides to learn more about contributing constructively to plot summaries/synopses. There are also specific guidelines for films, musicals, television episodes, anime/manga, novels and non-fiction books. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 06:01, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making changes to plot summaries/synopses that conflict with the plot summary edit guides, as you did at Titanic (1997 film). You may wish to review the specific guidelines for films, musicals, television episodes, anime/manga, novels and non-fiction books. Excessive detail and high word counts should be avoided. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Help with editing

I am just wondering if you can help me add entries to disappeared lists. I am swamped with editing and can only do so much at a time. Davidgoodheart (talk) 15:56, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate the reach out, but I can't make any promises. I'd see if you can find another editor. I'm just on a true crime kick lately. So I re-read these articles during downtime at work, and make edits as I deem necessary. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 17:46, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What is this POW/MIA list that you mentioned that this Bernard Gavrin unsolved death should be on and why can't it just go on the List of unsolved deaths? Davidgoodheart (talk) 18:37, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's pretty obvious he died or became displaced during war. There are a large amount of POW/MIA, I don't see why they should be added to a list like that. All it does it water it down. Is there a list of POW/MIA? It's far more appropriate for that list. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 04:28, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Airplane!. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. The footnote already covers the change you're trying to make, and when you were reverted the first time you should have initiated a discussion rather than simply trying to push your edit through again. DonIago (talk) 16:13, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I will continue to edit as I feel necessary. I remember you. You also got in a twist over my edits on the Titanic movie page, when I was ADDING IMPORTANT FUCKING CONTEXT. Oh, but you're gonna threaten to get my editing privileges removed over two edits.
But I didn't realize that the footnote was viewable, so so be it.

November 2022

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Windows Vista. 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:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. 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. Drmies (talk) 16:27, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just posted a thread on the edit-warring page over this. It is ONE editor who keeps reverting my edits, and they are not an active user. So I can't contact them to discuss it. They haven't responded to my talk thread on the talk page, they just keep editing it.
I went through all the proper channels to handle this. The other TM who is reverting me has not. So I fail to see why I should be held accountable over it. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 16:35, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You couldn't find your way to their talk page? User talk:66.116.45.26. Yes, I saw the report and responded there. Drmies (talk) 16:37, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, because they weren't registered user at the time they were doing it. I literally NEVER saw that page before. And you LITERALLY just created a welcome greeting for them, indicating that it didn't exist before. So how is this a question? StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 16:40, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And just what does that mean? "Reliable print media"? It's 2022, not 1995. A LOT of media is web-based nowadays. I shouldn't have to dig up a Goddamn print article from 2006 on Vista. And if there isn't a metric TON of web-based reviews and articles on Wikipedia, I don't know what is. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 16:39, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
From where I'm sitting you were spamming for a YouTuber. Drmies (talk) 16:40, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't care where you were sitting. Linus Sebastian is a very popular YouTuber. He has 15 million subscribers! Hence why he has a page on Wikipedia It's about as stupid as claiming I was spamming for PC World. Give me a break. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 16:42, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I note that on the talk page discussion another editor, completely separate from this edit war, agreed that the review should not remain in the article. If multiple editors say that certain content shouldn't be in an article, that doesn't give you the right to ignore them and add the content back anyways. Doing otherwise is certainly edit warring, regardless of how popular a certain YouTuber is or how valid you think their review is. The onus is on you to get consensus for adding the review to the article; as of right now, there is none, so don't add it back until consensus develops.

I argued against it placing "undue weight" on a particular opinion. I heard no counter argument or agreement with that. StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 16:53, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A "counter argument or agreement" is not needed; just because you disagreed with someone's opinion doesn't mean you can just ignore their viewpoint and re-add the contested material. SkyWarrior 17:02, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unsolved deaths

[edit]

Hi, regarding the prehistoric section on the List of unsolved deaths that you removed, I would like to point out that Modern man appeared 315,000 years ago that would cover the timeline of the prehistoric section and that modern man co-existed with cavemen so history was being recorded even back then. Also a lot of the prehistoric deaths were premature as they died young, example: Anzick-1. It also says in the article "Anzick-1's discovery and subsequent analysis has been controversial". Also some of the deaths on the list are premature as they died young, so there is speculation to how they died. So I would say that some of the prehistoric deaths could still be included on the unsolved death lists. Davidgoodheart (talk) 22:26, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I really think it's stretching things. These corpses weren't notable for any reason but that they were discovered thousands of years later. It's like claiming a dinosaur fossil was an "unsolved death". But I'm really not interested in getting in an edit war over it.StrangeApparition2011 (talk) 04:07, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
