Disambiguation link notification for March 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Church of San Francisco, Bogotá, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Presbytery. 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.)

March 2023
Hello, I'm AgisdeSparte. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Christianity and transgender people—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. AgisdeSparte (talk) 16:51, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

- I made two consecutive edits to a page. They disagree with the second one. They keep rolling back both of them. If you can explain to them how to only roll back the second edit, I would be thrilled. Moriwen (talk) 17:31, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

ABP
I added the following today to the talk page of the "Association of Business Psychologists" article:
This article, which was initiated by me, is currently the subject of a deletion proposal [by Moriwen], of which I received notice today. I believe that the deletion proposal is misconceived, and that the organisation is in fact more significant than its proposer suggests – an example of evidence of this would be the fact that over a dozen university degree courses in the United Kingdom are accredited by the ABP. However, I currently no longer have a close familiarity with the organisation, so I am consulting those who do to establish the best way forward. I should be grateful if no further action were taken on the deletion proposal until that consultation is complete. Deipnosophista (talk) 11:19, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

- Hi @Moriwen, please do not delete the page Association of Business Psychologists, it is a valuable organisation that has been undergoing some changes. I am on the Board and will be updating the Wiki page over the coming week or two with lots more information, including citations. Please could you remove the plans to delete it? Also, do you know how I can change the display title to Association for Business Psychology? many thanks! BizPsychologist (talk) 13:03, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Pages needing translation
Thanks for looking out for Pages needing translation, but did you know that these are strictly for pages which have a corresponding article on another language Wikipedia? Such pages are connected through Wikidata, and you can see evidence of that in the languages section in the left sidebar. The Charles Delacommune article has no equivalent in French Wikipedia, so doesn't need listing at WP:PNT. The article Chup Tazia doesn't need translation from Arabic, because there is no Arabic version of it. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 09:57, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
- My apologies! Thank you for explaining. — Moriwen (talk) 18:32, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
- No worries. By all means add listings to WP:PNT when you find an English article that has been translated from a foreign-language Wikipedia, and needs attention; that always helps. Happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 06:21, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
Redirects
Hi Moriwen, When you create a redirect, please check that the term actually exists on the targeted page. Redirecting to a synonym is a legitimate use for redirects, but not all readers will recognise the specific term for which the redirect is a synonym if it is not mentioned on the target page. If it is not mentioned, please add it in a logical place, ideally with a suitable reference. If you normally do this but sometimes forget or have not got around to it yet, no problem. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 08:11, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- It also makes a redirect more useful if you target a section if that is where the redirected term is discussed, and if you would add any relevant tags, such as {{R to section}} or {{R to alternative scientific name}}, that helps a lot with curatorial work, and the redirect is more likely to be tagged as patrolled. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 08:28, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- Also check that the target article actually provides the reader with useful information about the redirected term. The mere fact that it is used in the target is no guarantee that the redirect will be helpful to the reader. In articles where a term is used without explanation of its meaning, the term would more appropriately be wikilinked, which should not link back to the same page. In some cases it may be more useful to redirect to a technical glossary, and add the term with a suitable definition. Bear in mind that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Redirects that are not useful are likely to be deleted. · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 09:44, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Criticism of the Walt Disney Company
Yikes, I thought I was still on the associated talk page when I reverted those edits. Thanks for catching my mistake!-- Ponyobons mots 16:37, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Hey, I have mispelled your name when trying to ping you. Are you sure you intended to remove almost 3,000 bytes from that page? Regards, RodRabelo7 (talk) 23:23, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
Clearer?
I’m sorry, but I don’t understand why you think it is clearer to delete the rationale explained by the IOC, and just leave the bear fact that Fencer was given an automatic qualification. As you perhaps know, an automatic qualification is never given. This would seem to call for explanatory, phraseology, along the lines of what you choose to delete. I’m perplexed. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:4955:77CA:E34F:C24A (talk) 04:54, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

I did leave a clear explanation of the edit removing the phrase "against conventional wisdom" which is a baseless unsupported assertion which has no place on wikipedia. Whose says it was against convention wisdom? Where is any citation? Who defines what is accepted "conventional wisdom"? What is the criteria? Wikipedia is not meant to be an opinion piece. I cannot see why my explanation was inadequate and why you would revert that change. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.53.33.99 (talk) 19:23, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- The section you deleted included several citations supporting it. — Moriwen (talk) 19:24, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
"No ethnographic studies have shown that any present or past society has used barter without any other medium of exchange or measurement, and anthropologists have found no evidence that money emerged from barter."
That is a completely unsupported assertion. It is a politicised opinion ("the barter myth") stating a negative as a fact. Can't prove a negative, that is a logical fallacy. Statements like that shouldn't be in wiki articles
