I was wondering how my edit was more than neutral I didn't mean to offend anyone. I'm sorry if I did. — Preceding unsigned comment added by InfiniFighter (talk • contribs) 00:54, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi InfiniFighter! Thanks for leaving me a message! The reason for my message was because of this edit, where you add commentary and opinion regarding the units in the game. Remember that we must remain neutral; if a reference talks about its weakness, you can cite it and talk about how reviewers called the unit weak (just to give you an idea). But no harm done; we were all new once! Please let me know if you have any more questions. I'll be happy to answer them. Happy editing! :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:57, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Changing the Article 'Annexation of Goa' to the 'Liberation of Goa'

Unless the change is made the article itself is inherently biased towards the occupying Portuguese forces, thereby qualifying it as a constructive change. Goa has and will always be an integral part of India, and the article itself reflects this through the sections detailing the liberation and independence movements that occurred both before, during, and after the necessary military action undertaken by the Indian Forces. There is nothing more to add.

If your reversion of my edits was a mistake, please try out the 'sandbox' before changing it again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.43.29.24 (talk) 01:41, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Oshwah, please stop reverting and flagging my pages. They are legit. I am an instructor for the class Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Penn State Brandywine/Language and Thought (Summer 2016). I am making pages on my students user pages/sandboxes for them to complete projects with. You also reverted my own user page for some reason I'm not sure of.

yEvb0 - Alright, my friend. You're all set. Everything should be back to where it was before my stupidity managed to mess it up. Thank you so much for letting me know ASAP. I'm extremely sorry about that, man. I deal with a lot of vandalism, and some accounts do leave mass spam on user talk pages. You just happened to be a huge false positive. If there's anything I missed, or if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to let me know. Again, I feel extremely bad about this and I owe you a big one. :-( ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:35, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

HI

Hi, I have a question about the self balancing scooter, why did you revert my content while the information I provided is the fact and would be helpful to the community?

Hi Oshwah, just to inform you that my information on Ibinabo is accurate. She contested in 1991 Miss Nigeria pageant (not 1998) and was first runner up to the winner, Bibiana Ohio. She also contested in a pageant called Miss Wonderland in 1990 and she was the 2nd runner up for Nike Oshinowo in MBGN pageant in 1992.

Edit history (see this diff as an example) indicates the IP is either a sockpuppet, or a coached meatpuppet. Humorously, the information they are attempting is wrong even by the standards of Kyle's autobiographical claims - before the actual, authoritative military records were released Kyle had claimed 5 Bronze Stars, the authoritative military records show only 3, the IP is claiming SIX... Do you think it's worth time asking someone to Checkuser them, Oshwah? Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz (talk) 04:29, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

hello

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Berbers with this edit, without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:47, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits to Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Berbers with this edit, even if you intend to fix them later. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:51, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

You made a mistake by claiming that my edit wasn't "constructive", on the article Terry Bean. If you want people to take your claims seriously, you need to fully explain why you are trying to revert material and why it isn't "constructive", in your opinion. I will restore this material, anticipating that you will not be able to explain why my edits weren't "constructive".

Cookies for Santa

Wikipedia is indeed an educational place - you made me look up the American tradition of leaving cookies out for Santa Claus, which I'd never heard about! (In Sweden and several other northern European countries, kids don't need to leave anything for Santa, because he comes a-knocking on the door himself on Christmas Eve, asking if there are any well-behaved children in the house, and handing over the presents in person.) It confused me a little at first because I forgot that your Santa comes in through the chimney and so the cookies are presumably left indoors and eaten by the parents when they place the gifts... the closest tradition we have here is when people living on farms used to leave a bowl of rice pudding for the tomte at Christmas so he wouldn't leave the farm, and that offering would be left outside. Anyway, thanks! :-D --bonadea contributions talk 06:59, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Bonadea! Yeah, ours is an obese gentleman who drinks coca-cola and somehow can fit down chimneys (even though though you have the fire running) and puts toys under a tree that you go into the woods and cut down.

Content work

I just stubbed:

• Armina babai‎
• Armina gilchristi‎
• Armina magna‎
• Armina major‎
• Armina tigrina‎
• Melibe arianeae‎
• Melibe papillosa‎
• Notobryon bijecurum‎
• Notobryon clavigerum‎

Feel free to expand those if you are looking for content work. I plan to expand them in the next few days, but you are welcome to them. Such species articles are very easy add content to, unlike crabs or spiders or insects, which have complicated body parts. Also, I gave you two at IRC. Anyhow, if you don't like those, consider other species you can find by shopping via taxoboxes. Lots of stubs, plentiful RS, good, solid encyclopedia building. Cheers. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 13:40, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Anna Frodesiak - What I'm going to do is create/expand some technology-related articles. If I'm going to do some content creation, it should definitely be something I'm interested in, even if it means that the task will be more challenging (which is actually better). There are great suggestions, though (and very nice stubs, if I may say so myself ;-)). Keep on me; I need to and I will do some creation. :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:11, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

SarekOfVulcan - Just got your revert notification -- I remember this. So, I thought this was a troll due to this message being similar to another user that was trolling. But looking back on this user's contributions, I can clearly see that this is just someone who is angry (and is probably just pushing a POV) but not the same person as the other user that was trolling. So, you're right; definitely not vandalism as you said. I apologize; I saw similar messages on other people's talk pages (that were trolls) that included incivility and out-right harassment, and I thought that this was one of them. For the record, I do know the difference between trolling and anger, frustration, and incompetence and they are not the same. :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 16:03, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Reversion: The Outcasts (Brotherband)

[Sorry I screwed up and forgot to add a title] Hi Oshwah,

You recently (as in 2 minutes ago :p) reverted my edits to The Outcasts (Brotherband), indicating that it appeared to be a test of editing. However, I added correct punctuation that made the sentence structure grammatically correct. If there is something in particular that I did wrong, please tell me and I can correct that. However, some of the sentences simply did not make sense in that form so I added punctuation (commas, hyphens) that cleared it up. Also, there is a part in that page where there are two consecutive periods. It was there before my edits, but I only realized it now, and I don't want to change it myself as it may appear that I am ignoring your message by reverting my edits. Thanks and sorry! Markus1463 (talk) 01:40, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Markus1463! I know what happened! I struck the keyboard shortcut twice and accidentally reverted the edit (your change) after the one I intended to. I've restored your changes back to the article, and I apologize for the confusion. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you. Thanks for letting me know about this, and happy editing :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 01:43, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Your revert of my contribution, "because did not appear constructive"

Hello, I'm Logicalgenius3. I wanted to let you know that I am going to revert one of your recent reverts of my contribution done by you, "because it did not appear constructive" of 01:22, 2 June 2016  —the one you made with this edit and the previous one to Art Nouveau— because your revert was not constructive and thus in violation of VAN (Blanking) and - subsequently - of OWN, as only an introductory knowledge of the subject would inform that my edits corrected many obvious errors and also added missing languages of countries significant to the subject to show the actual distribution of the terminology. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think you made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Qwerty10131888 - The reason that the article was deleted was because it met the criterion for speedy deletion of people, in that the article did not assert or discuss why the person was significant. Check out Wikipedia's guidelines on the notability of people and asserting a credible claim of significance; they will answer your questions and provide you with the information you need. Please let me know if you have any more questions. I'll be happy to answer them. Cheers -- ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:33, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi

Hi Sorry I think I made mistake. I also want to ask you. Can you create a profile for one of business person in Bulgaria ?

Regards David

Lisa Sparxxx

It wasn't a mistake. Can you change it back? It's relevant to the person and the article and was in the intro for many years until removed by a user claiming to be Sparxxx. They were not and took every opportunity to stop anyone editing "their" page. I definitely think it's a fact worth being in the intro as it shows why this particular person is well-known. It's, well, encyclopedic. 2601:204:C203:9240:90EF:93E0:17F8:7244 (talk) 12:56, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

I should also point out that fact I added is IN the article later. But it should be in the intro as again, it's why this individual is noteworthy. 2601:204:C203:9240:90EF:93E0:17F8:7244 (talk) 12:58, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Again, it is sourced later in the article. Intros are for noteworthy accomplishments, titles, etc. This would be all of that. It's completely constructive. 2601:204:C203:9240:90EF:93E0:17F8:7244 (talk) 13:00, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Please review recent WP:AIV report

The helper-bot cleaned things up too hastily! I’d like you to reconsider my recent report [1] regarding XtraTacoman (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). You said “edits are not vandalism”, but I ask that you review the diffs for all four contributions. The one with the edit summary “noticed a spelling error of alan turing” is indeed a correction, but of their previous edit to change “Turing” to “Tubing”. The other two edits add “Hey there Danny ;)”, and change “Turing” to “Turtwig”. I see an editor that is WP:NOTHERE. Thanks if you can take the time to reconsider. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 13:48, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Willondon! You know, now that I look at it again, I should have used a different response template or not have placed one on your report at all. I apologize; I perhaps thought that the user was simply edit testing a random word, but I clearly see now that this was not the case. I appreciate you for bringing this to my attention; this helps me to keep alert and diligent with each of my responses, reverts, warnings, etc and to not let my guard down as far as being careful. It's very easy to cross the line and into the mode of going too fast and not giving each recent change the careful review that it deserves. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 19:54, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

In the past I vandalized a lot and was very rude on Wikipedia. I have a question. I was blo led for three months and the block ended today. Before I vandalized a lot and I mean a lot. Now I want to change and build an encyclopedia. I want to redeem my ways and turn myself around. My question is "am I allowed to keep editing?" Do I now have to stop editing from Wikipedia. You are probably thinking, "Why should I believe him?" Please Oshwah. Please trust me. I SWEAR I will never vandalize again. Please get back to me A.S.A.P and tell me if I can edit constructive again. I will respect your decision no matter what. Sincerely, 47.20.214.217 (talk) 21:39, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

(page stalker) I don’t know if you can edit constructively now, but you’re free to try with the IP 47.20.214.217. It’s not a personal thing, Wikipedia admins just block IP addresses where needed to prevent vandalism. That IP is unblocked now, Wikipedia keeps rolling along, and if there’s a problem in the future, history will just repeat itself. Have at ‘er, and good luck.

Article from my watchlist that's getting problematic and I won't be able to react seasonably

Kindly see Rosalind Brewer. A range of dynamic long IP addresses were on a spree of WP:SOAPBOXery a while back and forgot about it, and I think they popped up again about an hour ago. I honestly haven't thought about whether there's sockpuppetry here because this has been on, you know, my "non-top-of-mind" watchlist subset. But I'm going to be out of easy vandalism-fighting hardware equipage for a few days, and I fear this is the beginning of another preoccupied salvo. Could you please keep your good watchful eye on this, and/or spread the word among your comparable compadres? (For the record, I haven't set foot in a Walmart in over 20 years, but if I had ever borne a daughter she would very likely have been named "Rosalind," and this is why Wikipedia needs INFP editors along with the INTJs...)

Hi Oshwah!

Thank you for the response! I changed movie's title, cause creators took it from bible's quotes (I think from Ephesians Chapter 5:20-33) (Original quote in Greek "ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἵνα φοβῆται τὸν ἄνδρα") I search the original bible's quote and it is "but the woman should revere her husband". Said woman, not wife. Also word "And" at the begging fails to ascribe the exact meaning of the quote! Not important detail though. I tried to make a little improvement to the article.

Removal of false information

"In 1971, Nizami was chief of infamous Al-Badr militia.[20] Along with Pakistan army, this militia prepared a plan to abduct and kill Bengali intellectuals. They have massacred lots of professors, journalists, litterateurs, doctors and pro-liberation people.[21][22]"

Hello I removed the above few misleading lines from the page of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motiur_Rahman_Nizami. Because the information is wrong. There was obviously a military-led group called Al Badr. But Nizami was not the chief of this organization. Nizami was a non-military person and leader of a student organization.

Top Gear Controversies

Hello Oshwah,

I'm replying to you regarding the reversion of my edit to the Top Gear Controversies page. I had changed "on account of" to "for the fact that it was." Although "on account of" is a common idiom, it didn't sound right to me in the context of an encyclopedic article. I am unclear, however, on how the change in wording affected the page's neutrality. The edit may have changed the flow of the sentence slightly, but it did not change the sentence's meaning or introduce any bias.

Could you explain your decision in more detail?

(page stalker) I assume you refer to this edit here. [2] Wikipedia is a group effort, and there’s no need for special qualifications to edit it. Please see the article at Wikipedia:Ownership of content. You, me and he all have equal access to making changes. Oshwah didn’t explain in his edit summary, but I would have reverted it as “not an improvement”. The phrase “tells her slangs” doesn’t mean anything to me, a native speaker of English, and I don’t know the word “culcrate”, although if it is actually a word, it is surely conjugated as “he culcrates her”. In short, the language can’t be understood as English, and it doesn’t improve the article. That may be a hard blow to the ego, but you’ll find the ego is the first thing that needs to go if you’re going to have a pleasant and productive time editing Wikipedia. Please don’t take things personally. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 19:15, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Trying to Edit a Page

"Hi Oshwah, I am Kevin Harding the Brand and Merchandising Director at Strathberry (kevin@strathberry.com / strathberry.com). I am trying to edit our Wikipedia Page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strathberry_of_Scotland) as it is very old and gives incorrect information. Unfortunatley the page was created by a former employee and there is no way of obtaining the login details under which the page was created. Please let me know how I can edit it or archieve it so that it is not searchable and I will create a new one. Many thanks, Kevin." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.103.248 (talk) 09:59, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

@184.18.55.90: can you link me to a reliable source citing that birthdate please? SQL^{Query me!} 19:33, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

(page stalker) I assume you're referring to this edit here [3]. You'll want to read the article at Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth. The content you removed cites various sources regarding the unknown birth date. You replaced it with a claim that might be 100% true, but it isn't verified by published secondary sources. It can be very annoying when you know what the truth is, but Wikipedia can't include it. Wikipedia sacrifices 100% truth in favour of knowledge that can at least be traced to reliable sources. Your witness to Liston's birth would be very interesting to an historian interested in his biography, someone who publishes research on the topic. Wikipedia just isn't set up to handle original research, so it relies on reporting what other people say, who have gone to the trouble of checking facts and building a reputation for reliability. I'm sorry that you'll likely be disappointed in this explanation of Wikipedia, but like the sea monkeys, it's not quite as awesome as it looks in the ad. Willondon (talk) 19:55, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Kevin Matthews (American football)

I'm reverting your edits, because you and Kevboy11 deleted valid content to put information about a person with no references at all, that is named Kevin Matthew (Not even Kevin Matthews) and that plays soccer not American football. If you want to keep your information, you can create an article name Kevin Matthew and put it there.Makers267 (talk) 16:56, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Makers267: Looking at that page's history, Kevboy11 was the one who inserted the false information. When an IP editor went to remove that false info, they didn't re-insert the correct info at the same time, and Oshwah reverted the IP because it apparently looked to him like the IP was simply removing valid info without a good reason. I don't think Oshwah was aware that the page had previously been vandalized before he reverted the IP's removal of info. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 17:04, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Makers267, A guy saved by Jesus - Yes, it appears that vandalism was added earlier. I was just confused with the removal due to the lack of an edit summary. Thanks to you both for catching this and letting me know. :-) ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 00:37, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Edits to Leaky Gut Syndrome

Osway--I am attempting to edit the Leaky Gut Syndrome page because the original author is biased, and is not presenting a balanced view. Just because this doesn't fit traditional medical opinion does not mean that it is "psuedoscience". Alternative medicine is not psuedoscience. If you're saying that I'm the one making it MORE biased, you really need to look at and understand the original writer's work.

If this is what happens in my first edit on Wikipedia, I will never contribute again.

(page stalker) The original author/writer has no special privilege with the article. What you are seeing is the result of collaborative effort from many editors. This link [4] will show you the history of editing. It's a shame to see a first edit rebuffed, and the editor get frustrated, because Wikipedia is always looking for good editors. Unfortunately, it can be a tough slog for a new editor to learn the ropes, and have their edits stick. If you're up for the challenge, the best tip I can give you is that successful edits come from discussions on the talk page. The talk page for Leaky gut syndrome is the recognized place for all of us to hash out disagreements about the article content. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 01:36, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

I agree with Willondon. If there are disagreements or if you believe that there are issues with bias or misinformation currently on the article, you should discuss this on the article's talk page. This will start a discussion about the article and give other editors the ability to look into your thoughts and contribute to them. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 01:42, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Oswah--Never mind, I am not going to fight to try to edit that article; you've already decided it's psuedoscience, and you've got the power. What's the point?

Wiki page for Mahmud al-Muntasir

Hello,

I recently attempted to edit/contribute a line of information on to the Mahmud al-Muntasir (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmud_al-Muntasir) Wiki page. The addition read: "He is the great-grandfather of American Journalist Mola Lenghi." The edit was denied because it was not sourced. Understandable. I am Mola Lenghi. Mahmud al-Muntasir was my great-grandfather. His daughter, Souad al-Muntasir married my grandfather Abdelmawla Lenghi. Their son, Issam Lenghi, is my father. Perhaps not ideal but I am a first-hand source. Does this meet your criteria?

Thank you for considering and for properly maintaining what is a very important page to me and my family.

Please restore my page to its content before the vandalism and add back the photo that was deleted and protect my page yet again. Not sure why Sarahj2107 did this. Please help me.

Mullan/Legal

    :Biographies of living persons ("BLPs") must be written conservatively and with regard for the subject's privacy. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment. This policy applies to any living person mentioned in a BLP, whether or not that person is the subject of the article, and to material about living persons in other articles and on other pages, including talk pages.[3]. The mentioning of a civil lawsuit to which Mullan was not a party, and only a witness, falls into the category of "titillating claim", regardless of a written court "opinion. Deleting that content was being nice, given the contributions the man has made to human kind. You trying to insure that the content remains is not nice.

Adlene Guedioura height

Dear Oshwah,

You have (automatically?) reverted my change about the height of soccer player Adlene Guedioura. He is in no way 1.86m (even though he/someone has recently managed to include that into "official" statistics).

Actually, many sources credit him as being 1.78m (https://www.google.com/search?q=1.78m%20%22guedioura%22&start=0&rct=j).

To prove my point, I can show you this picture: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/02/07/256F719400000578-2943890-image-a-104_1423329569272.jpg where Guedioura is clearly smaller than Wilfried Zaha (who's 1.80m).

What should I do to have my change accepted?

Yours sincerely,

Actarus2805 (talk) 02:18, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi Actarus2805. The reason I reverted your change was because it removed a reference and replaced the person's height without citing a reference. If you want to change something like this on a biography of a living person, you need to cite a reference that is reliable. Please let me know if you have questions regarding the Wikipedia guidelines I provided you here. I'll be happy to answer them. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)}

Not sure what the issue is on the Clinton Sexual Misconduct Allegations articles. I just added a reference to his affair with Jennifer Flowers, which is well-sourced. Adultery is a type of sexual misconduct. For example, it is a criminal offense in 20 some states and is a grounds for divorce in almost all states. How could this be NOT CONSTRUCTIVE? In addition, an Allegation exists in two states. There is an an unproved allegation and a Proved allegation. Flowers is a Proven allegation.

Hello Oshwah -

In the Allan Quatermain entry, a citation was requested about the name Quatermain often being misspelled and I gave a perfectly fine one. That was a few days ago. Today it has been removed. That does not bode well for my recent important well-cited entries noting how Uncle Scrooge was a precursor of Indiana Jones. I decided that rather than wait on the edge of my seat waiting for some editor to remove those remarks, I decided to remove them myself. Also the same thing goes for the list of Indiana Jones ---Novelizations and Novels--- that I also added. No doubt some editor would come along and say the list is redundant of Indiana Jones franchise. Bottom line: I do not have the temperment to be a Wikipedia contributor.
