Hi. I reverted some of your edits to the [[Russ Kunkel]] and [[E. Jean Carroll]] articles. If you think an article is promotional -- and it's not obvious -- the best practices are to edit the article accordingly and/or post on the talk page with your specific concerns. You will find more information at [[WP:DRIVEBY|constructive tagging]]. |
|||
Only one citation is needed for individual assertions in an article. See [[WP:Citation overkill|citation overkill]]. Rather than adding multiple cn tags, if you find that an article needs more or better citations, consider adding the template that indicates more references are needed. (See [[WP:Citation needed|citation needed]].) Also, see [[User:Blue Riband|Blue Riband's]] comment above regarding bare URLs as well as the guidance on [[Reliable sources|reliable sourcing]]. |

I see that you are editing on an android. I find it difficult to use my phone to do anything other than correct the basics (typos, etc) but there are people who edit extensively on mobile platforms! See the essay by [[User:Cullen328|Cullen328]] [[User:Cullen328/Smartphone editing|on smartphone editing]]. |

If you have a question, you can add <nowiki>{{help me}} </nowiki> to your talk page, and other editors will be happy to assist you. I know that you are editing to improve Wikipedia -- that Russ Kunkel article is very poorly referenced! -- and your efforts are appreciated.

- Hi, just quick note, we like to keep discussions on one page, in the same thread, hence the move here. If you reply, even by editing the whole page, I will see it on my watchlist.
As for your comment, it would appear to be a technical issue, so WP:VP/T would probably be the best place to start. Post a commemt there with your issue, and someone (more than one, likely) will reply with some advice to try and assist you. Good luck and Welcome to Wikipedia - wolf 06:26, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
Test edits
Hi, please don't use my talk page for test edits. Again, if you're having technical issues, WP:VP/T is the place to seek help. - wolf 06:35, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Private Eye, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Turnover. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:04, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

References for Niklaus Wirth
Hi, it seems to me that there are two issues with your recent edits on Niklaus Wirth:
- 1194041223: Newly added references are not related to the preceding sentence. All references point to Kathleen Jensen (her research profile, etc.) and are irrelevant to the content (The Pascal User Manual and Report).
- 1194040847: You mention Wirth as editor, whereas the Book's TOC explicitly mentions Wirth as joint author for the first chapter and sole author for the second one.
Please consider Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. رهبرمعظم (talk) 08:45, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم oral statement by J&W; lady in red... 3MRB1 (talk) 08:50, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry I couldn't find the statement that you are referring to in the youtube video. Are you suggesting that the information in the printed book are wrong? رهبرمعظم (talk) 09:09, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- I think you are misunderstanding the statement: she explains the procedure of writing the documentation which was edited by Wirth. But as the book states the Reports chapter is by Wirth (See this publication). I will update the article now. رهبرمعظم (talk) 09:29, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم citing the works of a person mentioned in an article is Neccessary to identify who they are 3MRB1 (talk) 15:18, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Scholarly works does not reveal much about a person except their field of research. Why not create a Wikipedia page for Jensen? رهبرمعظم (talk) 20:15, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم citing the works of a person mentioned in an article is Neccessary to identify who they are 3MRB1 (talk) 15:18, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- Byt the way, you removed my notes and left the "Notes" section empty. Ignoring what the book says in favor of a misunderstanding (on your side) is no help. Please stop this edit war. رهبرمعظم (talk) 20:30, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم I moved your note into open text 3MRB1 (talk) 20:45, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- I am reverting it back. The current state is just a mess:
- There is no closing parenthesis after "(also ..."
- Notes section is just empty
- The reference to the online book on Archive is removed
- It should be noted that even in the video you reference, Jensen explicitly mentions that she could not write only her name in good conscious after the work that Wirth did. Stating that Wirth edited the chapter doesn't mean that he fixed grammatical and structural errors (what a Copy_editing copy editor would do)!
- I can understand that you might have strong feelings that Jensen work might be understated here, but we cannot change the objective facts. رهبرمعظم (talk) 20:58, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم looks like youare edit warring 3MRB1 (talk) 21:02, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- No I am not. I am informing you on every change that I make, justify it, and explain why I deem it correct. I would have appreciated it, if you did the same. I have also opened a dispute page to solve this issue.رهبرمعظم (talk) 21:04, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @رهبرمعظم what you have said is not the why you have acted 3MRB1 (talk) 21:08, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Bare URLs
Hello, I wanted to let you know that I reverted your edit to Borscht Belt regarding the Lansman's Bungalow Colony because they were all what we call WP:SPAMLINKS. Though it wasn't your intention all three were advertising links: one was for vacation rentals and two were for Jayne Currry performances. If you can provide a reliable source that refers to the Colony than by all means restore it! The old links are preserved in the page history.
Your edits employ WP:BAREURLS. This becomes a problem due to WP:LINKROT. When web pages get moved or sites restructured the link no longer works. When an editor includes information on where is was first published than it makes it easier for another editor to look for the new URL or find an archived page. Please take a look at WP:BAREURLS as it will provide you with guidance on how to cite. There is also a simplified page Referencing for beginners at WP:REFBEGIN.Blue Riband► 17:04, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Blue Riband wp app doesnt do citoid. Jayne Currry cites prove landsman is still in business 3MRB1 (talk) 12:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hello 3MRB1, I restored the Lansman's Bungalow Colony after finding a better source.
- There are two problems with using Jayne Curry's performance schedule to show that it is hiring entertainers and therefore still business. One, the links are about her and not abaout -=the colony. For something to have sufficient notability to be included in Wikipedia in needs broad independent coverage by sources completely independent from them. Generally speaking, if someone has difficulty finding sources to support inclusion, then that person, place, or thing isn't notable. Second, a link to a performer's schedule is going to rot very quickly. Past gigs will roll off their web pages and be replaced with new bookings.
- The Brownstoner citation that you had used was advertising. It's a paid insertion and not independent. Now if a Brownstoner staff writer had written an article on how Lansman's is still going strong that's independent. Reliable sources employ fact checking and editorial oversight. Take a look at WP:RS to learn what is considered a Reliable source. Blue Riband► 21:02, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
