LeperKhanz Page. Hey! I'm closely related to the band. I'm trying to clean the page up, add in relevant info, update things that are out of date, and also move some of the text to better match chronology.

Please give me a chance to finish editing it before you revert all my changes!

Considering nom for GA

Hi Oshwah, I'm looking over Windows Push Notification Service with a view to nominate it for GA - can the content be expanded upon? I'm checking over the basics (spelling, grammar, references) and it's looking okay -- samtar talk or stalk 10:11, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Samtar! HA! You don't need my blessing or my permission to expand the article! Have at it, bud! I'll be happy to revisit the article too and help you expand it as well. If you think it's good enough to make it to GA, lets make it happen together! *fist bump* -- ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:15, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think I misworded my question! I meant, is there anything you think could be expanded on, but I'll look to improve it too -- samtar talk or stalk 10:17, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Samtar - OH! HAHA!!! I thought you were asking if I was okay with you expanding it. I thought to myself, "How silly! Samtar knows that he's welcome to edit my stuff! I don't own any of it!" Looking through the article again, I guess I could expand a bit more upon how the push architecture works (I'd need to find some more sources that cover this in-depth), and I'll definitely need to find more sources that aren't from Microsoft (since those will be considered primary). But other than that, it's a service that doesn't have crazy coverage, meaning that there really isn't much that needs to be talked about. I'd say that the article is solid, but good? I'll let you be the judge ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:32, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Well I think it's a little way off at the moment, but I can't see anything in the criteria which it doesn't meet to my interpretation. Perhaps I'll get someone from the Microsoft WikiProject to have a once-over and make a judgement before plunging it into GA territory! -- samtar talk or stalk 10:36, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Samtar - Could you do that? I'd seriously owe you one or five beers if you could talk to them. I'm looking for references and other content that could be expanded upon (I've added a couple just now); definitely keep me posted! I'd seriously like to get the article to GA status if it really does have a shot and it's close to being there! :-D ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:49, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Samtar - I added some content that I think is relevant, and added some more sources (diff is here). That should definitely help quite a bit! What do you think? I saw that you made some cleanup and spelling fixes -- thanks!!! :-D ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:19, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

May 2016

Hello Oshwah, It's B-Dog 12.0. I am writing to tell you that I made those edits to the template pages because the information about the delegates was wrong according to AP. Please let me know if this source is reputable. Thank you.B-dog12.0 (talk) 18:36, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi B-dog12.0! Right on! Thanks for taking the time to message me and discuss your changes to Template:Republican Party presidential primaries, 2016 and Template:Democratic Party presidential primaries, 2016. I'll be more than happy to offer you some assistance and some things that you should know about moving forward.
I have gone ahead and closed the report; your account will not be blocked. I took a look at your changes to the template, and I agree with others that (at first glance) they appear concerning. There were some edits where you completely erased content, and also did it here when you say that you were just "fixing error"... you also did it again here and here. This will appear to other editors that you're making bad-faith content removal without care, or with the intention of causing disruption when you do this. No worries; we can go over edit summary usage later. When a template is displaying outdated or even false information, we definitely do not want to just remove the content completely as you've been doing. We want to instead fix the content and cite a reliable source so that the template is now showing up-to-date information and the changes you made are verifiable.
To begin, can I ask what exactly you think is "in error" on these templates? What needs to be modified or changed? Is it completely false? Or just out-of-date? ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 18:46, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi B-dog12.0, I'm the editor who reverted your changes. You're in good hands with Oshwah here! Templates can get very complicated, but help editing them is always appreciated (just like on articles)! I'd recommend looking at Help:Templates and also use the sandbox to test your edits before hand. Changes to a template can affect hundreds of articles at once, so editors there tend to have a "shoot first, ask questions later" approach. Thanks for the help, and hopefully I'll see some great contributions from you in the future! Wugapodes [thɔk] [kantʃɻɪbz] 18:58, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Schrenker

Oshwah, I'm not big into Wikipedia but I wanted to provide some input on the article you published on Marcus Schrenker. I am currently working on his story and have interviewed him. I've looked at your page and there are so many inaccuracies it would take some time to unravel. My biggest concern is that the article appears slanderous and defamatory. I'm also concerned about copyright and trademark infringement. Using someone's name, and writing an article about them, is very serious. From my understanding, Wikipedia goes to great lengths to ensure that slanderous articles are not published.

For example, let me provide some clarity. Your article claims he is a financial advisor. Marcus is not a financial advisor. You claim he owned a home in Geist, he did not. He didn't even own a home in Indianapolis. You claim he pled guilty to "faking his death." No such crime even exists. I called the courthouse, he pled guilty to, and asked the clerk if there was such a crime and she said no. There are other things: where he was born, his real age, his real date of birth, cross referencing him to Marc Schrenker (two totally different people).

The story doesn't tell much about him other than a one sided fictional slam. The references you have cited are tabloid quality media based. I have spoken to Marcus Schrenker myself and read the facts. Your article is far from true. In my opinion, it needs to come down.

Sincerely, Beach Pens — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beachpens (talkcontribs) 21:09, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Beachpens, and thank you for leaving me a message! I was not the original creator or publisher of this article. However, your edits here and here were also problematic. They didn't fix the article content; it simply added concerns that should be discussed on the article's talk page, not the article itself. They also added content that was unreferenced and not supported with a reliable source. Per Wikipedia's biographies of living people policy, you're encouraged to remove any unreferenced content in the article, especially controversial content. However, per the same guideline, you must reference reliable sources when making additions or modifications to the article. The description of your message to me above also gives me concern, as it appears that the unreferenced content you added was original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia (and especially not allowed on biographies of living people). Please review the Wikipedia policies and guidelines that I've linked you here, and let me know if you have any questions regarding them. I'll be happy to answer any questions and assist you further. Thanks again for leaving me a message here, and I hope you enjoy your weekend. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:29, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Auckland Civic Theatre

Hi there

I understand that you've reverted the change I made on this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland_Civic_Theatre and the reason is my change was not constructive.

My name is Jenny Nguyen and I'm the Digital Manager for Auckland Live, we managed The Civic in Auckland. What's currently showing up as the name on the Wiki page is not the official name and I'd like to reflect the official name as 'The Civic': http://www.aucklandlive.co.nz/thecivic.aspx

Let me know if that's still not constructive.

Thanks, Jenny — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.175.133.188 (talk) 22:23, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

PLEASE STOP RUINING MY LIFE

The personal life part of my bio I deleted because it is INACCURATE. It completely destroys any chance for me to ever get a job. It's based on bloggers' accounts of something that did not happen. Why are you so invested in ruining my life? I've accomplished so much and have had zero contact with this guy I barely knew in the first place FOR A DECADE. Don't you have something to accomplish other than screwing up my life? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.50.162.47 (talk) 22:46, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you are the article subject and have issues or concerns, you must contact the Wikipedia Volunteer Response Team by clicking here. This is the proper method you must follow in order to have your particular concerns addressed, as they have the proper tools and training to verify your identity and assist you with your concerns. Continuously reverting the article will only make things harder, as it will lead to you being blocked from editing. Please follow the directions I provided to you, and let me know if you have any more questions. Thank you. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:50, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Now they're going off on the talk page. Looks like there's an old dispute over that material. More concerning, however, is the IP's comments that are veering into WP:BLPVIO territory. clpo13(talk) 00:03, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
clpo13 - Well, at least it's being discussed on a talk page, I guess. Better that than having to deal with the potential edit warring that was about to ignite ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 04:31, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How to revert multiple edits by the same ip/user

Hi I am Samuel Farrell and I am new to reviewing recent changes. I am wondering how to revert the multiple edits from the same IP Address or user; because they are either non constructive or are possible vandalism. Thanks! Samuel.farrell31 (talk) 23:24, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Samuel.farrell31! The rollback user right will allow this, so long as the IP's multiple changes were the latest ones made to the article. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 23:42, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, So I must request the rollback user right to be able to do that? Samuel.farrell31 (talk) 23:45, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(talk page stalker) @Samuel.farrell31: You may want to consider using Twinkle as an alternative. You don't need to request access in order to use it, and it comes with a "rollback" feature of its own. It's slightly slower than the actual rollback tool, but it functionally does the same thing. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 23:47, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
K6ka is correct; use Twinkle. It'll make your life easier ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 23:50, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, How do I install it correctly, I checked the box in my preference pane and I noticed that nothing changed. Samuel.farrell31 (talk) 23:52, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That should be all you need to do. Check out the documentation; it'll tell you where it is and how to use it. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 23:53, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Never mind, I figured it out. Thank you guys so much for the help! Samuel.farrell31 (talk) 23:53, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bit unfamiliar with Wikipedia formatting, help please?

I haven't edited Wiki in ~10 years or so, so I didn't know how to add a superscript [who?] to a very obvious instance of weasel words ("some believe"). A citation needed tag would do as well, but "some believe" is clearly not up to Wikipedia standards.

Please respond! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.164.72.67 (talk) 01:47, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You can do this by adding <sup>Superscript text</sup>. Please let me know if you have any other questions. I'll be happy to answer them. Welcome back, and cheers! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:49, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Schrenker

Hi Oshwah,

Thank you for the response. I am concerned about a number things with the article and also concerned about editing it. I know someone worked really hard on this but there are so many things that are incorrect. For example, how could he have been sentenced to 14 years in prison when he is living in Pensacola, Florida? Another issue is his children. He has only one child, not three? His date of birth is wrong. The whole article just seems really wrong.

I'll remove the items that are incorrect. Check my work as I go if you would.

Hi again, Beachpens! That sounds like a good plan; please feel free to remove any unreferenced controversial information and let me know when you're done and I'll look at it. There's really nothing to be afraid of -- all you need to do when adding content to this article is to find a reliable source and cite it in-line with your changes. That's it! If you do this, you'll be 100% golden and your addition of content will be A-OK! If you get stuck anywhere, or if you run into any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. My talk page is always open to you and I'll be happy to give you a hand :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:30, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Schrenker Edits

Oshwah, what do you do when you are investigating links on an article and they don't exist anymore? For example, I am investigating statements made on the article, on Marcus Schrenker, for example to make sure they are accurate. When I click on the link, because the article is so old, they don't exist anymore, have been moved, or just erased. If there is no article to back up the statement anymore, what do you do? Do you delete the whole sentence that references the dead link or just leave it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beachpens (talkcontribs) 03:04, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Beachpens, you have a very clear conflict of interest in Wikipedia with regard to this topic. Please reply to me on your Talk page so we can finish the disclosure and COI management process. While I am waiting for you to respond I am fixing the dead refs so that we have a solid platform to start from. Until we finish working through the COI issues on your Talk page, please don't edit the article directly. Thanks
Oshwah, this has the makings of a bad situation; I'll ask you to watchlist the article and consider page protection if that becomes necessary. thx Jytdog (talk) 03:29, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, good to see you again, Jytdog! It sounds like you're already working with Beachpens regarding this article -- I'll hand him off to you and let you take the reigns from here (just so we don't trip over one another and cause him confusion).

Edit on Vikram Gandhi page

Hi Oshwah,

Thank you for your comment. I have removed the "Board Commitments" section from the said page as another editor had mentioned that it was like advertising material and hence had added speedy deletion on it.

Best, B1889 — Preceding unsigned comment added by B1889 (talkcontribs) 04:33, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi B1889 - No problem. If you want to contest the deletion of the article, you just need to leave a message on the article's talk page and make your argument there. Administrators know to always look at the article's talk page for a contested deletion discussion first before they take any action. If you have any questions or need help with anything, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I'll be happy to lend you a hand! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 04:36, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

On page move vandalism

Probably should have left this message on your talk page in the first place:

Oshwah, how come I never notice page-move vandalism? Is there something I'm missing? NottNott|talk 22:13, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Still wondering how you patrol recent changes and find page move vandalism in this way. Any advice would be appreciated. NottNott|talk 13:13, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NottNott! I saw your question on the request page and was going to message you, but I fell asleep... haha. Page move vandalism typically won't show up on recent changes unless you have move logs included in the list (if I remember correctly). Most patrolling tools won't show page moves either (just edits). I do see page move vandalism a lot, but page move vandalism isn't common. Moving pages requires a confirmed account, and most accounts that are created solely to troll typically are not. Most page move vandalism I see is done by sock puppet vandals who create sleeper accounts with a few good edits so that they become confirmed. Please let me know if you have any more questions. I'll be happy to answer them. Good to see you again :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:31, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

the source is from the email I received on May 30, 2015 that allowed me to download the song on May 30, 2015.

Hi Drumerwritter, and thanks for leaving me a message regarding your edit to The Voice (U.S. TV series). I appreciate you for pointing out that you discussed this on the article's talk page. What confused me is the fact that you didn't leave an edit summary with your changes. This is very important to do with your edits in the future; even something simple like, "See talk page for explanation" is better than nothing at all. Please feel free to restore the changes you made to the article.

Hi DreaSD, and thank you for leaving me a message here. You should not create or contribute to articles where you have a personal conflict of interest with the article subject.

Hi

You left a warning on my talk about not removing the speedy deletion tag. Its deleted now but why should it be kept? TDCamp (talk) 23:37, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

TheDwellerCamp! I saw that you responded to my warnings on your talk page; I apologize, I didn't see that you did that. If a page you created is tagged for speedy deletion, you cannot remove that tag yourself. Instead, if you believe the article should be kept, you need to contest the deletion by leaving a message on the article's talk page with the reason why it should be kept. The warnings were because of the fact that you did so, that's all. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I'll be happy to answer them and assist you.

James Ingram article

I received a message that you removed a minor edit I made, I can't find the item I edited, which was simply to fix a typo in an existing item. Would you please point me to the item in question?

Djcyberlegend (talk) 23:52, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Djcyberlegend! I found the edit. It definitely looks like you were fixing the year of the article subject's birth (which, to me, appears to be much more correct than what it was set at before). I must have mistakenly mis-read what you had set it to, thinking that it was blatantly wrong, but it wasn't. I apologize for the error, and I appreciate you for bringing it to my attention. Please let me know if I can do anything else for you. Happy editing! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:09, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Muhajir Sooba

Hi Oshwah, Sorry to bother you but I see that you were the last to edit on this page. I got a message on my talk page from 61.5.156.252 regarding that the page is vandalism and should be subject to a CSD. The editor has 'deleted' the page with a redirect. Since you are the undisputed champion of DR, could you do me a solid and have a look. Is there any validity? Should their edits be reverted and the page reinstated? Cheers David.moreno72 (talk) 05:23, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, David.moreno72! There's absolutely no need to apologize; I'm always happy to help! I declined the CSD tag on that page, because it's definitely not pure vandalism under G3. Other editors have also declined the IPs speedy in the past. I have undone the redirect, as the article appears to be about a location, not the people who live there. There is nothing that I can see on this article that makes me believe that this is vandalism of any sort. I'm going to leave a message on the IPs talk page and ask the user why he/she believes it to be vandalism. Please let me know if I can do anything else. Cheers -- ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:29, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be deleted or merged

Hey! This article is the Vandalism and false contents its damage , defame to the public interest of Sindh this is the utopian idea and its has been buried its not a real so either is should be deleted or merged with Mohajir people article.Thanks--61.5.156.252 (talk) 05:31, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please explain exactly why you believe that this article is pure vandalism? Exactly what content within this article is false? A utopian idea that's been buried and is not real? Your justifications in your edit summaries, as well as your message here and on David.moreno72'a talk page doesn't make sense. I'll be happy to assist you, but I need to help me out and explain exactly what the issue is here. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:41, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
its the This article Wikipedia:Vandalism#Hoaxing_vandalism--61.5.156.252 (talk) 05:34, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Are you saying that this page is completely made up and that this location does not exist what-so-ever? Locations that are blatant hoaxes would not have sources in the media, as the article does. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:41, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You should also know that the article in it's (now-previous) form contained claims and information that was not referenced. This has since been resolved and the article is now reverted back to it's last known good configuration (Bonadea did an excellent job beating me to it). Does the article, in it's present form contain issues that concern you? ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:52, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
yes , it still concerns remains...61.5.156.252 (talk) 06:06, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The sources reveales that it was just a hoax and the intended or mentioned location does not exists in real but the image made is also a hoax and defame , false utopian which makes no sense, and this article title is Mohajir Sooba Template:Lang-en, there is neither example in the world for a separate land for refugees, refugees comes from other lands and becomes part of the land which gives asylum to them. The image is also defame, vandalism, derogatory to the origin land.So its suggested it either be deleted or merged with the relevant article Mohajir people.. Thanks and hope you have got it...61.5.156.252 (talk) 06:01, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay; I'm going to read through all of the sources listed in the article, and I'll come back to you with what I find. If the sources reveal the location to be a complete hoax, as you just claimed, I will be happy and willing to handle the situation appropriately. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:04, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have read through all of the sources listed in the article. None of them state that the movement was a complete hoax; they speak instead of the opposition with the movement's desires to create a separate providence. I have modified the article to reflect the sources, but I do not agree with your statement that the sources state that the movement and the providence was a hoax. I do, however, agree that the previous revision of the article (with nothing referenced) was untrue, as there are no sources that state that it was actually created. However, the fact that there is a movement that seeks to do so is not a hoax. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:22, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Its a political hoax, defame derogatory so such type of topics does not bear ethical reason to be a separate article so it should be merged with the relevant article Mohajir people...Thanks

I want to make sure that I understand your thoughts completely. Can you define what a hoax is to you? When you say that this article is a political hoax, what does that mean to you exactly? Pretend that I do not understand what the word hoax means, if you don't mind. I want to make sure that we're completely on the right page with everything. Is that okay? ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:38, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so you believe that this movement does not exist at all... that there is no such thing as "Muhajir Sooba"; it's like Santa Claus or Dragons. They don't exist at all, and that this article was created solely to mislead people into thinking that they do exist? ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:14, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A couple of thoughts - 1) 61.5.156.252, please do not accuse Oshwah of "pretending" - Oshwah is clearly only trying to understand and to help, and you should do your best to keep emotive terminology out of the discussion. 2) If you can't reach an agreement here, perhaps list the article at WP:AFD and get some fresh eyes on it? At least that way, there will be a formal consensus whatever the outcome? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:23, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) I just want to make sure that we're on the same page; I ask these questions because you'll be surprised as to how many people have different interpretations of terms here. I know nothing about this article subject at all. I will say that I do not find many sources regarding this movement at all; even the provided sources make no mention of the words "Muhajir Sooba". Putting aside whether or not this article is a hoax or vandalism, I think that this article fails WP:GNG, and could be nominated for deletion due to the lack of notability. Having a community discussion will probably be the best solution here. I think that this is the right direction to go moving forward. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:25, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I did! If the article you nominated for GA passes, I'll be much more confident about running. But I've been told by Anna Frodesiak who is considering nominating me that I should create more content before I run. It's disappointing, to be honest, because I enjoy what I'm doing much much more. But I do think I she might be right. In the spirit of getting some updated and honest feedback, I have decided what I am going to do. After my second GA (whichever it is, be it the article Samtar nominated or a different one), I am going to start another thread at RFACP. If I'm told by everyone to get my butt in there and run already and given 8-9/10's all over, I'm going to RFA. If they find issues, then I'm going to work on them and wait until September (one year after my first RFA) as I originally planned. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 16:51, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

With regards to Finding Dory, please do not add the full plot to the page. The film has not released yet. By adding the full plot, you may be ruining the film for viewers who may want to watch the film without knowing what happens beforehand. Thanks Coolagrawal1999 (talk) 19:20, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Coolagrawal1999, you should read WP:IDONTLIKEIT. This is not an argument that we use on Wikipedia to justify changes to articles or article content. Please do not remove the content from Finding Dory again, as it is disruptive and will result in your account being blocked from editing Wikipedia if you do.

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)[reply]

hello

I was trying to correct some mis-information on Pierce Freelon's page. For example, he is not a CEO of Black Academics, he is not currently in Ghana, or a board member of the NC Arts Council, among many other factual errors. Why was my attempt at updating the page blocked? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Durhamight (talkcontribs) 06:25, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Durhamight! It's because, with one of your edits, you removed content without an edit summary. I reviewed your changes, and I have restored the article. In the future, you'll want to use edit summaries to explain any changes. If you have any questions, please let me know. Happy editing :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:27, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

JudeccaXIII - Awesome! Thanks for filing the report! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:45, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, definitely you made a mistake

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". Please do not proceed with an edit war against me. 67.5.251.135 (talk) 06:48, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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. You bet! Thanks for helping out with that article; it made dealing with that situation less of a challenge ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:04, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Content work

I just stubbed:

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.

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)[reply]

Hi Moscow Connection! Yup, it actually does work there; I got your ping as soon as you made it. All you need to do to ping a user is make a wikilink to their user space (or use those "ping" templates), sign the same edit, and make sure that the edit is not a minor one ;-). Great; I'll visit the thread and weigh in. And stop apologizing! You're more than welcome to bug me any time you need to! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 16:48, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page "Vandalism"

Please don't warn people for vandalism for commenting on talk pages, and don't delete comments that aren't very clear vandalism. Cluelessness != vandalism. Thanks. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 15:48, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

SarekOfVulcan - I typically don't, unless its unambiguous. Where did you see that I've done that? I'd like to take a look. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:55, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
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)[reply]

recent deletion

good day sir, I was just looking to say that the page for oak knoll middle school was more of an abstract work of poetic license that is was meant to make you feel what happened at that school, and while it may have seemed untruthful and just full of memes, it was what the school was all about, so I was hoping thatyou would be willing to revert your change, if not to make a couple of children hoping to share there experienced at a school on an educational website — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMemeTeam (talkcontribs) 00:43, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

Hey User:Oshwah, No problem. Thanks for your very quick reply and thank you again for your work with Wikipedia - I can definitely see it's a lot of work! Have a good night. Markus1463 (talk) 01:48, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

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

Information icon 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. Thanks.--Logicalgenius3 (talk) 02:25, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Did you double-hit the revert button, or do you think the article should be kept? —C.Fred (talk) 02:39, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
