Talk pages[change source]

Hi again, please don't request talk pages for quick deletion. Usually, we prefer that they are just reset with the talk header or you can use User:DannyS712/Reset talk.js. Therefore, it doesn't confuse newer editors who are going to the talk page to request something. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 17:12, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

RfD nomination of Category:21st century in Europe by country[change source]

An editor has requested deletion of Category:21st century in Europe by country, an article you created. We appreciate your changes, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Please comment on the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2022/Category:21st century in Europe by country and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also change the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns. But you should not remove the requests for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you very much. --Ferien (talk) 17:49, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sylvester Stallone filmography[change source]

Hey MathXplore, I just cleared out your VIP alert for 84.252.28.57, the IP user that has been changing the Stallone filmography article as although an edit war was going on, it seems to have stopped. That specific user has been editing that article (and its enWP version) for almost 2 years, so any changes they make to that article, are really just changing their own edits. I'm not seeing any obvious vandalism, however the user was long-term blocked at enWP for disruption. I would recommend continuing to monitor edits, trying to communicate, and if necessary, this can be escalated through AN, however I don't think this user fits a VIP alert at this time. Thanks for all your hard work on New Changes Patrol. Griff (talk) 18:50, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Categories[change source]

Please take great care when you are making so many categories for navboxes. There was a basic problem with many of them, that {{template category}} wasn't added to a very large majority of them. These errors take a lot of time for other editors to fix, so please check before you make so many. Thanks. --Ferien (talk) 22:50, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Town square categories[change source]

Hi, MathXplore. Thanks for all the category work you do.

I noticed that you created quite a few categories for town squares, and that you categorized them as "buildings and structures". A town square isn't a building or structure, though, it's an open space. Please find a different way to categorize these. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 00:34, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rollback usage[change source]

Hi MathXplore. I've noticed that you've used rollback a few times where it is not appropriate to use it. Please note that not following the manual of style and copying from enwiki are not reasons for rollback, and are inappropriate uses of rollback. Rollback must only be used for vandalism. If you are unsure whether an edit is eligible for rollback but are certain that it should be reverted, please use the undo feature or Twinkle. Thanks. --Ferien (talk) 16:30, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

question[change source]

Hello @MathXplore, I have a question is there a more simple word in English for circumcision?

is cutting of foreskin more understandable for simple English ?

Thanky for reply me

--Nalanidil (talk) 18:35, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea for this. Perhaps you should use dictionaries rather than asking someone else. MathXplore (talk) 12:56, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

When in doubt of if a term is simple enough, link it anyway. In this case we have an article for Circumcision. (delayed answer as I was here to post something anyway) Creol (talk) 04:18, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

French televison[change source]

Thanks for the help with the cat work. I intended to do it but I needed to bounce some thought at Auntof6 about naming conventions first. Creol (talk) 04:18, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of wars involving the United States[change source]

In your en.copy/paste for List of wars involving the United States, you were missing 5 templates, had 2 broken images and the section on the Texas revolution has us fighting against President Van Buren. The article popped multiple errora which I went through and corrected (how I noticed the Van Buren issue). Could you take a little more care with future copy/pastes to make sure you have all the needed items and everything works well before posting it? Creol (talk) 18:41, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit conflicts[change source]

As you are constantly interupting my edits, Ill just stop now and let you do it. each country and all three medal need done not just the gold. Creol (talk) 04:05, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry if I bothered you, but I just wanted to assist the categorization. MathXplore (talk) 04:10, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Time zones[change source]

About this change. I don't think we want time zones to be only in a category for the United States. The time zones that cross US lands are not only in the US. For example, the Eastern Time Zone runs down into South America, crossing other countries. Maybe Category:Time zones in the United States should be a non-diffusing subcategory. Look at the way enwiki does it for an example. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:43, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kazani pit killings[change source]

Please avoid removing large sections of an article's text soon after creation. The creator could have still been working on it (they made an edit 4 minutes after creation, and then you only started removing just 5 minutes after that..) Thanks. --Ferien (talk) 19:35, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did that to help the article avoid QD A3. Do you have some tips about how long should I wait ? MathXplore (talk) 05:36, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Probably at least 15 minutes if someone's creating a new article. Articles eligible for A1 or A2 or G3 or a similar criteria I understand tagging within a few minutes as they're not trying to help, but with A3 and sometimes A4, I think we have to wait a while because the author may be working on it. --Ferien (talk) 07:02, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the advice. MathXplore (talk) 07:04, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank YOU![change source]

Turkish Oil Wrestling[change source]

Hello @MathXplore, I see you changed the name from Turkish Oil Wrestling to Oil wrestling, but two sports are different in my case, so the article that I created was especially only for the Turkish oil wrestling, if we compare this two in one article they can be confusion then.

--Nalanidil (talk) 12:15, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since the page is simple enough, I believe any confusion can be avoided. If you have any further opinions about the page name, use talk:Oil wrestling, not here. MathXplore (talk) 12:19, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank YOU![change source]

I thanked you last week! 152.22.84.23 (talk) 11:56, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You[change source]

		The Tireless Contributor Barnstar

Stop editing[change source]

Stop editing for a moment MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 04:12, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I named the Monarchs of Europe cat incorrectly, should be Monarchies of Europe MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 04:13, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see you've done that. Thanks MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 04:14, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

THANK YOU![change source]

I know you hear me. 152.22.84.23 (talk) 12:43, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Flooding[change source]

As I have explained before, please request flood before making so many changes in such a short period of time. It is very difficult for recent change patrollers to patrol now. Please either use HotCat to spread the edits out over a longer period of time or request flood, there is almost always an admin around. --Ferien (talk) 06:11, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

QD[change source]

I think at this point it'll just be counterproductive to keep QD tagging their pages. For now I've asked assistance from admins on IRC. I specifically asked them to nuke their contribs. -- *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 05:35, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks for the notice. MathXplore (talk) 05:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Deri Lorus[change source]

Hi why do you put the deletion tag ? AdrianaNor (talk) 07:38, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) A previous discussion decided that the subject was not notable. -- *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 07:39, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the explanation. From the next time, check the notes on QD tag before asking. MathXplore (talk) 07:40, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your current cat work[change source]

I have AWB set up to easily combine categories like you're doing. Let me know if I can help with that kind of work in the future. --Auntof6 (talk) 11:09, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
