Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've [[Talk:Rocket Lab/GA1{{!}}begun reviewing]] the article [[Rocket Lab]] you nominated for [[WP:GA|GA]]-status according to the [[WP:WIAGA|criteria]]. [[File:Time2wait.svg|20px|link=]] This process may take up to 7 days.

[[Help:Introduction|Welcome to Wikipedia]], Me Da Wikipedian! I'm Ozzie10aaaa, and I've been assigned as your '''mentor'''. About half of new Wikipedia accounts receive a mentor chosen randomly from a list of volunteers. It just means I'm here to help with anything you need! We need to have all kinds of people working together to create an online encyclopedia, so I'm glad you're here. Over time, you will figure out what you enjoy doing the most on Wikipedia. |

::Right. By now, I've dealt with the first of the five GA criteria. There's a lot of work for you to do. The volume is high, but the various tasks probably won't take very long. The exception is the lead, where I suggest you nuke it and start from scratch. I just wanted to check in with you that you are ok, and don't feel overwhelmed by this all? I'm not sure whether you've gone through a GA process before. You've certainly picked a meaty subject!

General sanctions regimes (such as [[WP:GS/RUSUKR]]) are ''community'' sanctions and not levied by the Arbitration Committee.

With [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Cherry_blossom&diff=prev&oldid=1217436127 this edit], you reverted an IP editor who was editing ''their own comments'', using an inappropriate edit summary about content removal. Then you left an inappropriate warning on the IP's talkpage about refactoring the comments of others (something that only ''you'' actually did in this interaction). I suggest you gain some more editing experience of your own before undertaking this sort of monitoring and warning of others' edits.

{{editconflict}} Hey, I wanted to let you know regarding [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:67.204.241.143&diff=prev&oldid=1217442176 this edit], that Wikipedia policy ''does'' [[WP:REMOVED|allow users to remove comments from their own user talk pages]]. It is generally understood that removing comments (not refactoring or editing them) from your own talk page indicates you have read them. Similarly, you should not [[WP:DRC|restore removed comments]]. I agree with Grandpallama above that you should become more aware of policies (and don't be afraid to Google policies if you're not sure) before monitoring other users. <b>[[User:GSK|GSK]]</b> <small>([[User_talk:GSK|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/GSK|edits]])</small> 22:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC) |

The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration|Wikipedia arbitration process]]. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose [[WP:BAN|site bans]], [[WP:TBAN|topic bans]], editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Policy|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. |
|||
You also have numerous valid reports and reversions of disruptive users, and thank you for those. However it's important to remember that multiple incorrect reverting or reporting is itself disruptive: it drives legitimate editors away, wastes time on noticeboards in clearing inaccurate material and (per some of the above) reintroduces low-quality material that had correctly been removed. |
|||
If you wish to participate in the 2024 election, please review [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2024/Candidates|the candidates]] and submit your choices on the '''[[Special:SecurePoll/vote/{{Arbitration Committee candidate/data|2024|poll}}|voting page]]'''.

|||
This also isn't the first time this has been raised re your edits. So, in short form: please stop and double check every proposed edit involving a reversion, a warning or a noticeboard report. If your proposed edit is not soundly based in policy and double-checked for accuracy, don't make it. -- [[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] ([[User talk:Euryalus|talk]]) 22:17, 5 April 2024 (UTC) |

== Incorrect reversion and warning == |
|||
Hi. [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Carleton_Island&diff=prev&oldid=1219136515 This] was not an unexplained content removal. The IP editor was removing an advertising link, and explained that in their edit summary. Please check these a little more carefully before reverting or warning other editors. -- [[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] ([[User talk:Euryalus|talk]]) 00:17, 16 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:It was unexplained content removal, as they removed "'''Its tower has collapsed. As of 2018, the mansion is offered for sale.".''' However you are correct about the reference, I thought I removed that but apparently not@[[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] [[User:Me Da Wikipedian|Me Da Wikipedian]] ([[User talk:Me Da Wikipedian#top|talk]]) 00:19, 16 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
::The tower collapse component is unsourced and a legitimate target for removal. Alternatively it could have been retained but tagged as unsourced. The rest was an advert for a local realtor which was appropriately removed as linkspam. The issue is not the lack of sourcing for the tower collapse, it is that you warned another editor for "unexplained content removal" of the realtor ad when they did in fact explain the content removal in their edit summary. The problem with this kind of error is that incorrect warnings discourage editors from wanting to contribute. The Wikipedia rules for editing are complex enough as is; imagine how discouraging it must be to follow the rules and get reverted and warned anyway. |
|||
::As I mentioned above there are plenty of legitimate vandal reversions and warnings in your edit history, which is great. FWIW your strike rate for good edits is also significantly improved, with fewer questionable edits. But the error rate is still too high, and it seems to be because you are working too fast and not taking time to check what you revert and why you revert it. In what I hope come across as constructive advice, I'd ask you again to please ''slow down'' and check and re-check before reverting and warning your Wikipedia colleagues. -- [[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] ([[User talk:Euryalus|talk]]) 10:08, 17 April 2024 (UTC) |

:::Well no in their edit summary they said that they removed a real estate listing (the spam link) nothing said about the sentence at all.

== Removal of content at [[Adam Newman]] == |
|||
Hi. I noticed you removed storyline content at this article. I have [[WP:BOLD]] reverted it. While sources are important, this article is about a fictional character, and many Wikipedia articles about characters, films and such don't cite sources for everything related to the storyline/plot. I think it would be better to leave it as there is substantial content there. [[User:Cleo Cooper|Cleo Cooper]] ([[User talk:Cleo Cooper|talk]]) 00:43, 16 April 2024 (UTC) |

::Maybe from the other sources within the article, I guess. But I don't think it's worth removal it all.

:::::::The "Very Likely Have Problems" and "Very Likely Bad Faith" are [[Subset|subsets]] of "Likely Have Problems" and "Likely Bad Faith", so there is no point in having those. In addition, a lot of those edit will have already be reverted, so maybe use that as well so it disappears once reverted. I also have it so that [[Wikipedia:Extended confirmed|Extended Confirmed]] edits don't show up as those are very unlikely to be vandalism. I like your idea of also adding the faith prediction though. Also realizes that my "Registered" filter defeats the point of not having EC editors edit show up so removed that.

::Hi {{u|Me Da Wikipedian}}, sure. You have joined the following edit war with two reverts that added factually incorrect material to the article: |

|||
::Given the history of warnings above for similarly problematic patrolling quality, I believe that a 24-hour block was the simplest and mildest way to make this stop. |
|||
::Best regards,<br>[[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 00:21, 18 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:::Oops! That was totally my mistake (well actually only [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Connie_Mulder&diff=prev&oldid=1219469744] [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Connie_Mulder&diff=prev&oldid=1219469819] were even me but...)! I recognize that and I am sorry, and will try to improve. In this particular case it seemed like vandalism, considering that a user replacing something with "op die" is usually not a good edit, and I didn't look at the content too much considering that they had already been reverted and warned repeatedly by another user. I think that in general, after that first 5 issues at the very beginning, most of my problems have been not fully looking at the context (ex.didn't see a ref was a spam link and saw no edit summary so reverted, saw someone adding "op die" and didn't see it was in another language, etc.) I will work on that in the future. |
|||
:::I think that my quality has been improving to nearly okay, am I incorrect. @[[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] mentioned that I should aim for at least 98-99% accuracy. Removing my first 13 reverts, which I had a terrible 61-62% accuracy on, I have had accuracy near 97-98%. Am correct that I am improving and nearly there? |
|||
:::P.S. I wasn't really edit warring. From reasoning [[WP:Edit warring]], reverting vandalism is not considered edit warring. Considering that I, and another user as well, thought that we were reverting vandalism, I don't really think we were edit warring, considering that edit warring is, as far as I can tell, only edit warring if deliberate. I'm guessing I'm missing something though, please tell me what. |
|||
:::Thank you and sorry for (yet again) wasting people's time. @[[User:ToBeFree|ToBeFree]] [[User:Me Da Wikipedian|Me Da Wikipedian]] ([[User talk:Me Da Wikipedian#top|talk]]) 19:39, 18 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:::::Thanks for the ping. Am not sure I said anything about percentages of accuracy, perhaps this was someone else? Either way ToBeFree has good advice below. -- [[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] ([[User talk:Euryalus|talk]]) 07:57, 19 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
::::Regarding the term "edit warring", I'd be fine with calling it "unintentional [[WP:DE|disruptive editing]]", perhaps "persistent unintentional disruptive editing". Please note that [[WP:3RRNO]]'s exception number 4 is usually about more obvious cases of vandalism, though, even if we assumed that it was vandalism. Whatever it was, I hope that preventing it for 24 hours isn't entirely unreasonable. |
|||
::::Your accuracy may very well have improved and that's good! I didn't check all recent contributions to see if there's more of this or if it was just 1% of them. But the warnings above are from April 2024, that's the current month. For the block decision, the number of good contributions wasn't a factor. The absolute amount of disruption, not the relative percentage of it, led to the decision. This doesn't mean that the relative percentage is irrelevant; of course it is relevant in general. If you edit very infrequently and just make one bad edit per year with none good in between, that would <em>also</em> lead to a block after a few of these contributions. In that case, the block would even have to be indefinite because no short duration block would prevent it from continuing. |
|||
::::I am unsure which advice I could/should provide at this point; I think the 24-hour pause might really have been the best way to cause whichever change is needed. I don't intend to monitor your contributions afterwards or whatever else; I just stumbled upon them at [[WP:AIV]], took quick action to stop disruption and moved on. If the 24-hour block is agreeable and you're fine with just letting it expire and moving on afterwards too, then I think that's the best approach. |
|||
::::It's all good. My personal time wasn't wasted; I volunteer to look at such situations. [[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 07:50, 19 April 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:::::Okay, thank you. I meant that me (repeatedly) reverting good edits, after which somebody must re-revert them, tell me and explain it to me, and remove the warnings, is probably annoying to do. The block had already expired by the time you replied so...advice already taken there. |
|||
:::::"The absolute amount of disruption, not the relative percentage of it, led to the decision." - Would that mean, theoretically, if I revert 1000 bad edits in a week, but also 10 good edits, that you would concievably block me. Alternatively, if I revert 10 edits in a week, and 1 is actually good, is that better?@[[User:ToBeFree|ToBeFree]] |
|||
:::::To Euryalus, that's a good point, I feel like I remember you saying that if I make mistakes more than once per 50-100 reverts or once per hour, then thats a problem and I need to slow down@[[User:Euryalus|Euryalus]] [[User:Me Da Wikipedian|Me Da Wikipedian]] ([[User talk:Me Da Wikipedian#top|talk]]) 10:46, 19 April 2024 (UTC) |

== Your additon of stub on [[Bapu Zimidar]] == |
|||
{{notice|small=yes|You can view the full list of stub types at [[WP:STUBS]].}} |
|||
Hello Me Da Wikipedian, |
|||
I noticed you marked an article as a [[Wikipedia:Stub|stub]] using the {{tl2|stub}} template. Did you know that there are thousands of stub types that you can use to clarify what type of stub the article is? Properly categorizing stubs is easy to do via the [[WP:StubSorter|StubSorter]] tool, and is important to the [[Wikipedia:Community portal|Wikipedia community]] because it helps various [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|WikiProject]]s to identify articles that need expansion. |
|||
If you have questions about stub sorting, don't hesitate to ask! There is a wealth of stub information on the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting|stub sorting]] WikiProject, and hundreds of [[:Category:WikiProject Stub sorting participants|stub sorters]]. Thanks!

== Anti-Semitism vs Antisemitism == |
|||
Hi there. It is now more accepted to use Antisemitism instead of the outdated 'Anti-semitism'. The latter was a term created as a pseudo-scientific explanation for the hatred of Jews, often associated with the Nazi ideology of racial classification (https://holocaustremembrance.com/resources/spelling-antisemitism / https://www.adl.org/spelling-antisemitism-vs-anti-semitism).

Your GA nomination of Rocket Lab
[edit]Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Rocket Lab you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. 
This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Schwede66 -- Schwede66 (talk) 21:01, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you. @Schwede66 Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 21:02, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Right. By now, I've dealt with the first of the five GA criteria. There's a lot of work for you to do. The volume is high, but the various tasks probably won't take very long. The exception is the lead, where I suggest you nuke it and start from scratch. I just wanted to check in with you that you are ok, and don't feel overwhelmed by this all? I'm not sure whether you've gone through a GA process before. You've certainly picked a meaty subject! Schwede66 01:25, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Never done a GA before. Not sure how quickly I'll be able to get through all of that but clearly I made a whole lot of mistakes...you're very quick at this.@Schwede66 Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 11:26, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi there
[edit]Sorry for the long delay, but you didn't complete the CVUA training course. You only have to put up diffs in the appropriate space. I will evaluate it in the next 48 hours, so that you can graduate CVUA.
You have seriously improved since your last block, including an impending good article nomination above. Keep it up! ToadetteEdit (talk) 07:51, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- @ToadetteEdit I don't have the 50 reverts in the past 2 weeks though. I'm much less active here than I used to be, but I'll get around to actually reverting stuff either later today or sometime next week. Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 11:31, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Rocket Lab
[edit]The article Rocket Lab you nominated as a good article has failed 
; see Talk:Rocket Lab for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Schwede66 -- Schwede66 (talk) 04:01, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
The account Lowe Lilliehorn who is reverting edits on Brandbergs article is the name of Brandbergs party’s press secretary. So I believe the editor is likely getting paid to revert edits.--BabbaQ (talk) 18:29, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
