- Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
- When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.

Happy editing! Cheers, Sarsenet•he/they•(talk) 05:31, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
In a case like that, where they are just reverting after you revert, stop--don't revert anymore, because they're getting a kick out of it. Dogs and vomit, you know. After once or twice, leave it be, report them at AIV, and let an admin deal with it. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 12:48, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- Great, thanks Drmies. Really appreciate the advice as a counter-vandalism newbie, and that makes sense. I'm hoping to join the CVUA soon, which should really help. Referentis (talk) 13:16, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- They come in a couple different categories. I can't remember all these people's names, but the editing pattern typically betrays what category they fit in and how to deal with this or that category can depend. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 23:11, 20 April 2025 (UTC)

By the way I'm actually reviewing the page that you tag just a few minutes ago and also the sandbox for user that you tagged for it can you please delete it because I think it's really belonging to a company that is harboring AI in order to use
[edit]They're really trying to promote their company I think that they're should either be blocked and speeded away completely please just do it quickly because I think it's urgent cause it's promotional content Gladcape2013 (talk) 02:23, 10 May 2025 (UTC)
- Gladcape2013, I assume you're talking about Larrytabus? If so, as you've mentioned, I've already requested for these pages to be speedily deleted under CSD G11. An administrator will then review the speedy deletion requests. See WP:CSD for further details. Referentis (talk) 02:39, 10 May 2025 (UTC)

Hermann Heuvers contributions removed
[edit]I beg you kindly to explain your removal concerning my contributions to Hermann Heuvers, especially the removal of his work's title "Vierzig Jahre in Japan 1923-1963" I cannot agree, as explained in my two repliques to your e-mail from saturday May 24, 2025. Ucm-ge (talk) 08:14, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
- Ucm-ge: Sorry for the delayed reply. I reverted this edit on Hermann Heuvers due to a likely copyright violation. This is because 942 characters of the edit had been flagged as a direct copy and paste from Amazon.de, which included the list of chapters in Forty Years in Japan 1923-1963 from the Amazon.de listing. I did not mean to revert the title of the book, so I have now added Forty Years in Japan 1923-1963 to the bibliography section of Hermann Heuvers. Also, if you use
{{User|Example}}
then this generates a "ping" which notifies the user of your message. Thanks, Referentis (talk) 03:55, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
Hermann Heyvers book title removed
[edit]When on May 21, 2025 for the first time I met the title of Hermann Heuvers' "Vierzig Jahre in Japan 1923-1963" on Wikipedia, there was no problem. Pbritti wrote "Welcome". So where is the problem? Ucm-ge (talk) 14:17, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
Cane Bay High School
[edit]Hey there! I would like to know what specific content constituted a violation of the NPOV rule. I'd love to work through it and fix that page so it can be as best as possible! Rikkitonton (talk) 01:39, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
- Rikkitonton, the edits to Cane Bay High School introduced content with a non-neutral and promotional tone, and used primary sources. Although the article has already been created, I'd recommend reading Your first article for guidance, and see also Writing better articles. There's no rush for editing, so I'd recommend making small, slow edits while you build your experience. I'd also caution against using large language models. The Wikipedia Adventure is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia, and if you have any questions the Teahouse is a friendly space for help. Thanks, Referentis (talk) 02:22, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
Pepper II
[edit]- Hey! Just to ask, are the new sources in Pepper II reliabie?--PawPatroler (talk) 23:02, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
- PawPatroler, this edit to Pepper II added a citation from Killer List of Videogames which is listed on WP:VG/RS as a reliable platform-specific source. See also WP:VG/RL, which is a directory for sources to use when editing articles about video games, and if you have any questions, see WT:VG. Thanks, Referentis (talk) 13:48, 29 May 2025 (UTC)
