Auto archiving

Hey! Quick note when adding automatic archiving to pages using {{User:MiszaBot/config}} - you need to ensure you properly configure the template when copying it from one talkpage to another. To be specific, the parameters |archive=, which controls the archiving location, and |counter=, which controls some of the archiving configuration, need to be properly adjusted for talk pages. |archive= should be adjusted to the new talk page, and |counter= should be set to either the number of the most recent archive or 1 if there aren't any already. An example fix can be seen in this edit.

Don't worry about fixing any previous mistakes - I've already ran through your contributions and fixed any of the recent additions for you. Please just keep this in mind for the future. Thanks! Aidan9382 _(talk) 14:50, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:William Dorsey Swann.webp

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:William Dorsey Swann.webp. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:35, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:11, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Template categorization

Hi. Regarding this recent edit of yours.[1] Thank you for creating and categorizing the template, but in the future please make sure to place the categories between the <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags. This prevents the categories from being transcluded to the articles using the template. Those categories were in this week's database report[2] so that's how I found out and I have corrected the problem here. Strange in this case, because of the timing, it looks like the transclusions didn't have time to fully complete (transclusions are rarely instantaneous) and I guess that's why only three of the four cats were listed.

For more information see WP:CAT#T and WP:NOINCLUDE. Take care, happy editing, and have a great rest of your day:) --DB1729^talk 16:54, 28 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Correct representation of sources

In this edit you added a statement saying that The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory stated there was "already clear evidence" of Israeli war crimes it would share with judicial authorities. However, this isn't what the source says; the sources that there is clear evidence that war crimes may have been committed, emphasis mine.

Please be careful in the future to ensure that you are correctly representing sources, particularly in a contentious topic area like this one. BilledMammal (talk) 14:21, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh, you're absolutely right. I've been typing so much these last few days, I must have accidentally cut out a part of that sentence. Good catch and thanks for letting me know. Won't happen again. CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 14:31, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. BilledMammal (talk) 14:35, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please self revert

You have violated 1rr here. Please self revert. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:26, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know, and sorry. The editor twice added very poorly sourced material to a page with really serious important. What is the best way to resolve such disagreements diplomatically? CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:28, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Open a discussion on the talk page. Ideally, you will do this at the time if your first revert to begin the discussion and hopefully head off any edit warring. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:30, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds good. Sorry, I've never been in this situation before. Opened a discussion on the talk page now. CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:33, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And now you must self-revert your 1rr violation or you will be blocked. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:34, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, that's intense. Good to know. Thanks. CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:35, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I appreciate it. Please keep an eye on your reverting in the future. WP:CTOPs can be a minefield. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:36, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, wow, no kidding. I think I understand now, though. So instead of just reverting, qualify it based on the source, start up a talk page discussion, improve it with sources if you can. Ok, but what do you do if a user adds unsubstantiated bunk? You have to allow it to stay on the page until there's a consensus on the talk? CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:39, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unless another editor reverts it, yes it has to stay. WP:3RRNO outlines the few exceptions. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:44, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much! Gosh, I've never even seen these rules pages before. CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:45, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:1RR at War crimes in the 2023 Israel–Hamas war

In the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area editors are limited to one revert per 24 hours; breaches of this are taken seriously, and can result in blocks or bans from uninvolved administrators. In the past 24 hours you have made three reverts.

Note that our definition of revert is any edit (or administrative action) that reverses or undoes the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, and whether performed using undo, rollback, or done so completely manually. A series of consecutively saved reverting edits by one user, with no intervening edits by another user, counts as one revert.

Please self-revert your most recent revert. BilledMammal (talk) 03:26, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the material needs to be discussed on the Talk before it is included on the page. CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:29, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for opening the talk page discussion - I will respond shortly - and thank you for self reverting 03:23, 22 October 2023. However, you haven't self-reverted 03:21, 22 October 2023; please do so. BilledMammal (talk) 03:46, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done! CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 03:50, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! BilledMammal (talk) 03:52, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad this got settled amicably, my mopping arms are getting tired. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 03:56, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

04:13, 22 October 2023 This is actually also a revert; while you replaced the image instead of removing it, it still reverses or undoes the actions of other editors. Could you please self-revert that as well?

On the topic of the actual content, I think that would be a good image to add to the body of the article, but I feel we need two images that are parallel for the lede - I don't think that image is aligned with the other image we currently have. BilledMammal (talk) 04:21, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Sorry, I'm still learning 😅 Also, let's talk about lede images on the page talk rather than here CarmenEsparzaAmoux (talk) 04:24, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

All good, thank you. BilledMammal (talk) 04:37, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

You're doing fantastic work, and I hope you get a handle of the rules and regulations here as you have really been stellar in your sourcing and editing and its something Id like to see more of. It can be difficult in an article where things are changing so quickly, but in general if you make it a rule to instead of reverting an edit of yours that was reverted to go to the talk page and essentially convince others to revert it by consensus you will save yourself most of the administrative headaches in this area. But I wanted to say thank you for all the work youve done so far, and if there are any questions you have on the rules and procedures drop me a line and Ill be happy to try to answer. Not an admin, but been around a while and you can learn from my previous mistakes instead of repeating them yourself. Take care, nableezy - 15:09, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
