== Notifying a Wikipedia Editior of a Comment on a Talk Page? ==

I would like to be sure that a specific Wikipedia editor (e.g "Mr.X") sees a comment that I am going add to a talk page.  Is there a notification template, referring to Mr.X, that I can include in my comment?  What is the Wikipedia best practice for creating such a notification in a talk page comment?

[[User:Deicas|Deicas]] ([[User talk:Deicas|talk]]) 00:02, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

:{{re|Deicas}} Try {{tl|reply to}} (which I have used here) or {{tl|talkback}}. '''[[User:ClaudineChionh|ClaudineChionh]]''' (''[[User talk:ClaudineChionh|talk]]'' – [[Special:Contributions/ClaudineChionh|contribs]]) 00:06, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
::Thank you for your response.  Do I understand correctly that ...
::... using the <nowiki>{{reply to}}</nowiki> template is equivalent to prefixing the username with an "@", eg. @[[User:ClaudineChionh|ClaudineChionh]]?  
::... and use of the "@" username construct causes a notification to be delivered to username? [[User:Deicas|Deicas]] ([[User talk:Deicas|talk]]) 00:56, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

::: Using their linked username, like this [[User:Deicas|Deicas]] (just don't copy a fancy one, because they it looks like they signed it), also serves as a ping. Note that the ping must occur as part of the original comment, and at the same time as the comment is signed and saved. Fixing it later will not work. A later ping has to be in its own signed comment, if it wasn't within the same edit as the original comment. -- [[User:Valjean|Valjean]] ([[User talk:Valjean|talk]]) 01:45, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

== Doesn’t seem to be making sense ==

Hi there,

Please help me out. On the page [[Philip Davies]], the following is written in the introduction: "he is the most rebellious serving Conservative MP, having voted against the Tory whip over 250 times in the course of his parliamentary career, and he has been criticised for "talking out" Parliamentary Bills not supported by the government and by doing so "kill off legislation he doesn't like"."

So, since the Conservatives have been in power since 2010, how can be Mr. Davies be called "rebellious" for voting against bills not supported by the Conservative government? This is very unclear and doesn’t appear to be phrased right. Thank you.

== self-citing and corrections ==

Hello. I was unable to add a question to the Talk pages and I might have done something wrong. I apologize for going about things the wrong way, but I do stand by my corrections. Here's what happened: I have just published "Francis and Clare the Struggles of the Saints of Assisi," which Kirkus Reviews said was “lucidly written, a scrupulously thorough account.” On pub date yesterday 11/16/2021 I added my book as a reference on the following entries: Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi, Agnes of Bohemia, Elias of Cortona, and Pope Gregory IX. I also made some corrections and added my book and page numbers as a reference on Elias of Cortona and Agnes of Bohemia.
Another point: Yesterday the coding of the ISBN numbers seemed to be correct but today the ISBN number on some entries leads to the WIKI ISBN search page and does not retrieve the book. 
Here are the links to the pages I mention:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_of_Assisi
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_of_Assisi
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnes_of_Bohemia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elias_of_Cortona
