Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 18650 battery, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Battery. 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.)

You know, I'm not actually a fan of photos of herbarium specimens on species pages, but someone had already put it there and I accidentally removed it. And that pic is particularly nice; it still has some green coloration, and that itself is odd because the species is supposed to be extinct. Abductive (reasoning)00:03, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JayCubby: I came here on your talk page to ask you regarding your signature and saw this. I think that your signature is a bit too long - please shorten it to simply your username. Also, I advise against referring to contentious current events, especially one under CTOP sanctions, on your signature as well. Prodraxis(talk)22:06, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Emperor of Wikipedia 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/2012 August 2. 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.

many thanks for this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:193.137.135.5#A_belated_welcome!)! Now, for some explanation and bits and pieces: i do have an account already, this one. I have been here for 18 years give or take, but i'm not having fun anymore, more a chore than anything else really, but one could say i'm wiki-hooked!
Sometimes i'm too lazy to log in (really can't explain why), but my edits (account and IP) speak for themselves i do believe. The only thing i really have no patience for is vandalism, and it sometimes unfortunately translates to my summaries, really cannot help myself there. I used to have a rollback feature in my previous account (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Quite_A_Character; it was not blocked or anything, i just stopped using it because i really wanted to leave WP, then forgot about the password so had to stupidly create another one), very useful for vandalism, but not anymore.
@RevampedEditor: Thanks for replying! Your edit summaries seem to be fairly reasonable, and consider applying for rollback rights--it should be fairly easy to re-apply given your editing history.
Thanks for the welcome, JayCubby, but I've been editing the desks and (to a lesser extent) copyediting articles regularly for 20 years, and deliberately choose not to have an account for reasons I won't bore you with.

When I created the Black Fetus Illustration and it went viral, I received a lot of hate speech and threats from people, because I was celebrated. The news of me selling the arts on NFT is a lie. I never sold the illustration on NFT, of course, NFT is a public sales place, and you will see who purchased it, if there was ever a buyer. It was only uploaded to protect the art but never sold, as we took it down to give the art away for free. For the accusation of plagiarism, it never happened.

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

The edits made were aimed at rectifying the use of the term 'Berber,' which is considered offensive to the Amazigh people. It was not an act of vandalism but rather an effort to ensure cultural sensitivity and accuracy in the content. SaraWiki123 (talk) 13:47, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Even the pages referenced are about the Amazigh people, which underscores the significance of using culturally sensitive language. The term 'Berber' is considered offensive by many within the Amazigh community, and it's crucial to respect their preferences in Wikipedia's content. Furthermore, the article you mentioned acknowledges that the term 'Berber' is viewed as pejorative by many who prefer the term 'Amazigh,' emphasizing the importance of using appropriate terminology.

Thanks for your edits to my source thing. I didn't realize it was on Archive.org. To my awareness linking to Archive.org is fine for books provided it is either 1) out of copyright (which this isn't) or 2) one of their "lending service" type books, which you have to log in to read (which means Archive.org is lending you the copy, and it's not just a random upload). That appears to be the case with the lone wolf book, so it's fine to link.

This is very disappointing to see, JayCubby. You were one of my favorite anti-vandalism patrollers, and I was always happy to see your name pop up whenever you beat me to reverting vandalism. The fact that you created an account referencing the username of a well-known LTA to potentially troll (this is just speculation -- I don't know the contents of that account, given that I am not an administrator, but that's what I'd imagine considering the fact that the contributions have been deleted, in addition to the username itself), something that you show good enough judgment not to do on this account, is so frustrating to me it's hard to put it into words.
I recommend that you take the standard offer here. I would like to see you back editing, but I'd imagine that given your abuse of multiple accounts (very likely in a WP:Good hand, bad hand scenario, considering the evidence I've gathered), nothing less than that will be granted. Despite my disappointment, I do hope that you can learn from this, and whether or not you come back here in six months to appeal, I genuinely wish you all the best. JeffSpaceman (talk) 22:33, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was disappointed to see you had socked, too. It's a shame, I had really gotten used to seeing your name on the project as I edited.

Don't create any new account or you will never be back as an editor in good standing. LizRead!Talk!00:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Same here. I am also shocked and disappointed that you abused multiple accounts recently. It's a pity, given that many of your edits to this encyclopedia were notable by many of us (including me). Your counter-vandalism work in hundreds of pages was indeed helpful. Nevertheless, I hope you will learn from the mistakes you made that led to the block imposed on you. Please also refrain from creating any more accounts here at this point. Wishing you all the best 6 months later. ~ SG5536B (talk) 07:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do NOT create new accounts, as you did at User:JayCubby-StandardOffer. Doing so while your original account is blocked is a violation of WP:SOCK, and that now means you have to reset the six-month timer for the standard offer. Heed Liz's advice above: "Don't create any new account or you will never be back as an editor in good standing." I'm rooting for you, and I want to see you come back in six months, but you cannot edit here, under any account or IP, until the block on this account is successfully appealed. I will also point you to WP:3X -- as you have been blocked under the new account for evasion, if you are confirmed by a CheckUser even one more time for violating your block, you will very likely be banned by the community. This will mean that an unblock request that can be appealed to any individual administrator turns into one that will have to go to the administrators' noticeboard, where consensus will determine whether or not you will be allowed to return to editing. I don't want to see you end up banned, but policy is policy, regardless of what I personally want.
I'm not saying any of this to apply pressure on you. I want you to understand all this so that you have a chance of coming back here in six months with a successful appeal. Continuing to evade your block will only prolong your inability to edit here. Please, for the sake of editors like me who want to see you succeed, try the standard offer. Thank you. JeffSpaceman (talk) 21:05, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I saw your thanking me on Simple English under your new account on there, but please let me make this crystal clear for you in case someone hasn't already -- you are globally locked. You must successfully appeal that block in order to edit any Wikimedia project. This wiki is certainly included, but a global lock also applies to other Wikimedia sites including (but not limited to) Simple English and foreign language Wikimedia sites. I can't swear that you'll need to wait six months from this very date to appeal this website's block, given that you didn't sock on this specific wiki (though someone else is free to chime in if they have the answer), but evading your block by creating new accounts only elongates your status as unwelcome on Wikimedia sites. Please take the standard offer, and do not create another account. Come back in six months to request unblocking, with absolutely zero edits to any Wikimedia project, and you might have a chance. As I said before, I want to see you back, but creating new accounts to circumvent your global lock is unacceptable. Please, just wait six months. JeffSpaceman (talk) 16:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If someone or the community is willing to unblock, I will rescind the lock. That said, I am not at a place where the explanation left in the UTRS appeal is enough for me to unlock on it's own.

I may immediately understand what is going on more clearly. 2) The comments per day can not be lifted. This is a system-wide implementation as is purposeful.

Once that's open, click the button labeled "Cite" once the cursor is on the text you are citing , which brings up the following menu: , then paste the link in.
Nevermind, I assume you are talking about these in-text citations. My bad. In-text attribution is generally preferred for contentious information, but is not needed here.
A search of your username in Google doesn't yield any coverage on a particular subject, so that alone indicates a lack of notability. The first results for 'Gabriel Bassey' are a variety of LinkedIn profiles and several news articles on a man who was convicted of beating his mother to death. Also see Help:Your first article, which explains in great depth how an article can be started.
If you are the professor at TSU then I suggest looking at Wikipedia:Notability_(academics), the gist of which is that you much have had a significant in your field, which doesn't appear to be the case from the single publication.
@Fcc2024 I'd advise you to first take a look at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies), as I don't know much about the company you work for (based on your contributions, possibly the Football Cymru Community). I hate to say this, but a quick Google search tells me that there's next to no chance that your company satisfies the notability guidelines. In short, there is no secondary coverage (news articles), and having 120 followers on Twitter is a bad sign. We don't even have articles on all of the most-subscribed YouTube channels.

Hi,
I am wondering if you can help me with something...
Someone is putting the wrong date of birth for Brooke Nichole Lee. This is then informing Google, so when people good Brooke Nichole Lee, it comes up with a much older age.
When I apply for it to be changed, the owner of the page keeps refusing and changing it back even though all links and evidence shown shows that the date of birth they have listed is in face wrong.
@Brookeleemanagement, there is no such page on the English Wikipedia, but there is on the German version (Brooke Nichole Lee. I'm not familiar with the workings of the German Wikipedia, mostly because I don't know German. From Google Translate and the english-language IMDB, that looks like a reasonable edit to make, and I'm not sure why it's being reverted. I suggest you ask at de:Wikipedia:Fragen zur Wikipedia for how to proceed. JayCubby03:12, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you I will try that.
How do I create my own English version of the page? Then perhaps google will use that information instead.
Thanks for the ping. In short: the user has no chance to insert an unverified date into an article in de:WP. The user wasn't able to show a trusted source to us, so we will not set the new, younger age in the article. Fact, not discusable. On the other hand we removed the other date from the article: there was also no trusted proof for it. Meanwhile we are discussing to remove the article, for there is no proof in the very most facts that are to be read there.
In addition the user Brookleemanagement is not welcome to edit in de:WP as long as the user doesn't fulfill our terms of use.
Hope to have written an understandable comment though I'm not used to write in english. In case of further questions feel free to ping me again. Kind regards, --Carol.Christiansen (talk) 17:40, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Aayushmjoshi (13:26, 22 January 2025)
Hello sir,
I have to make a wikipedia page for an actor, but there exists one for another actor with same name. What should be the process? --Aayushmjoshi (talk) 13:26, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.
Primary sources may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject.
People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria below. Articles may still not be created for such people if they fall under exclusionary criteria, such as being notable only for a single event, or such as those listed in Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not.
You said you have to make the article for the actor. If you are getting paid to make an article,or otherwise have a connection to the actor (conflict of interest) you mustdeclare your conflict of interest.
With that aside, I'd advise starting the new article in a draft. Let's say the actor is named John Smith. Unless one actor is far more well-known than the other, John Smith would be a disambiguation page (which the example is), which lists the people named John Smith (say John Smith (born 1950) and John Smith (born 1998)). Hope this helps. JayCubby17:07, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was adding the total episode count of a tv series here in Wikipedia but it’s been removed since no I didn’t cite any source. I checked any sources regarding the total episode count and there was none. The only source I found where the total episodes are is from Netflix but a third party can’t be used based on guidelines. What do I do? 122.3.133.206 (talk) 14:06, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As I understand what you say, you are citing an episode count from the Netflix show itself, which is a reasonable use of a primary source.
Edit: per your talk page, it looks like the show hasn't been released yet, which complicates things. Perhaps it's best to wait until the episodes have been released (or until the Holy Week passes) to add counts. JayCubby14:39, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. I agree with you @JayCubby and I understand his/her concern, but Wikipedia's sourcing guidelines are clear: information must be verifiable through reliable sources. While Netflix is a primary source for the show, it's indeed considered a third-party source and not suitable for verifying factual information like episode counts.
However, I also see your point that Netflix itself releasing the total episode count could be considered a reasonable source by merit. Nevertheless, since the show hasn't been released yet, adding this information could complicate things.
So, in this case, it's safer to err on the side of caution and not include the information in advance. Adding it prematurely wouldn't significantly improve the page, so it's best to wait for more reliable sources to confirm the information.
these are my tips just to avoid implications in your future edits. First, check official websites, published press releases, or published articles from the show's creators, producers, or network, as these are reliable sources. Second, look for reputable entertainment and news outlets, such as ABS-CBN News, ABS-CBN Studios, and ABS-CBN Entertainment, which often report on episode counts and other factual information, since they're the main producer of the show. Netflix is just a third-party airing the show on the OTT platform. Third, if you're unable to find a reliable source, consider leaving a note on the article's talk page explaining the issue. This can help other editors find a suitable source or provide guidance. My concern here is to remember, we're prioritizing higher verifiability and imposed reliability in every sentence we add in Wikipedia. It is essential when adding information to Wikipedia it must be supported with current and present available data aligned with Wikipedia's citing guidelines. Hope this helps you a lot!

As far as I know, third-party sources aren't currently accepted. Primary sources are directly specified as objective based on the claims; they base how individuals understand what primary sources stand for.
My stance as a fact-checker is clear: regardless of whether intentional or not, adding unsourced content is a serious violation of Wikipedia's core policies. Wikipedia's Verifiability policy (WP:VER) unequivocally states that all information must be supported by reliable sources. Failure to comply with this policy undermines the integrity of Wikipedia's Citing guidelines.
So, if you continue editing without providing sources, it demonstrates a disregard for Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. This behavior is not only disruptive but also potentially vandalistic, as outlined in Wikipedia's Vandalism policy (WP:VAND). Furthermore, Wikipedia's Reliable Sources policy (WP:RS) emphasizes the importance of using trustworthy sources to support actual and present sources to support users' claims. Ignoring this policy can lead to the spread of misinformation and compromise the credibility of any Wikipedia page.
So, with regard to these policies, I urge you to refrain from adding unsourced content and instead focus on providing reliable sources to support your edits. Remember, the goal of editing Wikipedia is to improve the accuracy and reliability of the said page, not to compromise its page integrity.Mr. Accuracy Specialist (talk) 17:49, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I had known and seen you around since a year back when your signature said "plz edit my user page!". I did a bit of recent changes patrolling back then, and you were one of the people that I would often see when clicking on IP and new user talk pages that were blue links. I also saw your sig quite often on AIV, RPP and UAA, and from what I remember you had beat me a few times when swiftly reverting some vandal edits as well.
Then, a few months later, I had not seen your username around in weeks and was wondering what was going on. That was when I noticed the indefinite block that had been placed on your account. Followed by some other things like a global lock shortly after.
I was afraid I would never see you around again after that point! You had a cool personality, and did great work in the patrolling of recent changes. I was a bit sad, to say the least.
Then, fast forward to now. About a month ago I noticed that suddenly this 'JayCubby' guy is back, now contributing to areas like ITN nominations, editing articles about recent events, and cleaning up various other articles.
I'm just really happy to see you back! You managed to make it out of what happened last year, and are now back to making Wikipedia a better encyclopaedia than ever before. I'm proud of that, to say the least.
P.S. 1: This silly "AP 499D25" username is something I came up with back in Oct 2022 when I started editing, only because I didn't want to pick the name I use on gaming and chat platforms, and I didn't expect to become a "big", frequent contributor, so I was like, eh, I'm just not gonna care much about my name. However, I've still yet to come up with a username that I actually like to use on Wikipedia, which is why I'm still on this one.
P.S. 2: I don't really do recent changes patrolling as much as I used to back in 2023 and early 2024 - a lot of the reasoning can be found here. Basically, I'm a bit tired of how IP vandals/LTAs have gotten so hard to stop lately, how the WMF is barely doing anything about it (e.g. look at the guy responsible for the teahouse and help desk being protected!), and a lot of the times when I file a page protection request, I just feel bad because of how it shuts out a large and thriving sub-culture of casual editors. These days I spend most of my time editing tech and transportation related topics, alongside helping out with the dealing of several lesser known LTAs, and sometimes contributing to recent event articles.
A belated Happy New Year, and I wish you an enjoyable Wikipedia editing future!
You're welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or write things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. We're sorry if this message has discouraged you from editing here, but the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. You know better than this, especially with the sig. If you seriously are hoping to attain advanced rights, you need to dial it far far back. Star Mississippi 14:59, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
