Please stop tagging articles with the current events template when they are not associated with any ongoing event. If you are confused and not sure please ask at Portal talk:Current events or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Current events. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:41, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh sorry, so what am I supposed to use for articles on things which might change over time with new information? 多多123 (talk) 17:47, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Current events confusion[edit]

On note of advocacy for myself, if I have emitted erroneous "Current" or "Current Events" tags.

They were posted assuming good faith.

Please help to fix these errors and comment on my mistakes in this thread. 多多123 (talk) 17:59, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Problem: GOCE drive[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Thanks for participating in the WP:GOCE drive, but you introduced errors into both articles: inappropriate capitalization and replacing a grammatical sentence with a comma splice. I removed you from the leaderboard, since you didn't meet the requirements. Please be more careful. Have fun and all the best, Mini apolis 02:31, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What was the capitalization? 多多123 () 10:22, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't remember offhand, and don't have time to retrieve the diffs. See MOS:CAPS; I think one of the capitalizations you added was for "junta", which isn't a proper name and shouldn't be capitalized. Mini apolis 19:41, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It was
The "Junta", (also known as the "First Junta") 多多123 () 20:39, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"First Junta" is apparently a proper name, although I'm unfamiliar with the subject. "Junta" is not, and should probably not be in quotes either. Mini apolis 22:43, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I understand what you're saying from a grammatical point of view, I have added a link to the word making it now correct. 多多123 () 21:34, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Problem: Your signature[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Your signature [1] contains a lot of junk code:

<small>{{#ifeq:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{ns:0}}|{{FormattingError|[[:{{#invoke:TEMPLATENAME|main}}]] is only for examples of style and formatting. Do not use it in actual articles.}}|<span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: #006400;" {{#if:|title="{{{title}}}"}}>''[[User:多多123|多多123]]''</span>}}</small> <small> (</small><big><span style="color:darkred">'''✉'''</span></big> • [[Special:Contributions/多多123|<span style="color:darkgreen">'''✎'''</span>]]<small>)</small>

I guess you use transclusion {{...}}. This is forbidden by Wikipedia:Signatures#Transclusion of templates (or other pages). PrimeHunter (talk) 16:16, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, how can I fix this? 多多123 () 16:36, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Would deleting the Example text template fix it? 多多123 () 16:37, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I cannot see the original signature code in your preferences but that would probably work. You can get the same effect by copying selected parts from the expanded signature code. PrimeHunter (talk) 17:02, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
多多123 ( ) 17:03, 25 March 2023 (UTC), Does this work?[reply]
The original code is in the history of my userpage, if you find a way to get the same result but with different code I would appreciate your help, 多多123 ( ) 12:08, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop removing redlinks and familiarize yourself with WP:REDYES. Esculenta (talk) 19:40, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I will refrain from removing redlinks from lists indefinitely, but I believe in the articles which are not lists I have made the right decision, if you disagree you may revert my edits, I added in the summary for others to feel free to add them back in if they believed it was essential to do so, thank you, 多多123 ( ) 19:50, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Can you find sources for Tottoi and Sinbad (1992 film). DareshMohan (talk) 21:20, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late response, sure I will try to find any sources I can. 多多123 () 21:44, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Tottoi  Not done - No references available online. 多多123 () 21:51, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sinbad (1992 film)  Not done - No references available online. 多多123 () 21:53, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid I haven't been able to find any references, you may have more look searching, perhaps, in Google Books? 多多123 () 21:55, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bhimashankar Temple[edit]

Hi 多多123, I know you're currently copy-editing Bhimashankar Temple but after looking at the article, I've removed several uncited sections and have tagged the "History" section as uncited. My reasons for doing so are in my edit summaries, but basically per WP:V and WP:NOT (Wikipedia isn't a travel guide). I hope the removals haven't disrupted your work but I see little point in copy-editing removable uncited and/or irrelevant content. Thanks for your work there. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 18:19, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's no problem, I haven't made any changes for about 2 or more hours, I will be editing it throughout the day. Would you say that it contains peacockery? It uses the terms "elegant", "exceptional", and so on. If you'd like to, you can call me by "Duo" 多多123 () 18:22, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Duo; I think in this context, it could be minor peacockery; neither of the sources I checked describes the temple as such. It's up to you if you want to remove the adjectives, or you could just tag the first one with {{cn}}; the section containing "elegant" is covered by the unreferenced section tag I added. It's no problem for me to use your username; I simply type the magic words {{subst:PAGENAME}} and the site software add it for me. :) Cheers, Baffle☿gab 19:25, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Damn, that's smart. My username is just DuōDuō123 in English, it has no actual meaning. 多多一二三 in Mandarin to be exact. :P 多多123 () 19:26, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I requested to ce that article, today I also did good amount of ce and add data there. You should keep your username simple any one can tag you easily. Is your ce over or your going to do more, please let me know.Rock Stone Gold Castle (talk) 11:45, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure if you know, but GOCE requests say that you must wait 7 days before it is considered as not finished by the copy editor, I will try to finish it by the weekend. 多多123 () 12:04, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

() Hi 多多123, are you planning to finish copy-editing this article? I've noticed there's been some new additions there. I'll wait seven days and then strike your acceptance if you don't edit there. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 03:52, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Responded on the GOCE page. 多多123 () 15:23, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in New Kingdom of Egypt, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please read WP:ERA Lone-078 (talk) 15:38, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Welcomes[edit]

Please don't welcome editors who have made zero edits. There are many reasons why this is not a valuable use of time and is actually discouraged by Wikipedia:Welcoming committee.-- Ponyobons mots 20:28, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I had no clue, I will stop welcoming such editors who do not have a blue link to their contribs. 多多123 () 20:29, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It actually says "but not required" in brackets, which means I can keep on welcoming a few? I believe welcoming people who have made zero edits will encourage them to make edits, this has been evident in some users I have welcomed in the past. 多多123 () 20:32, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's unlikely an editor started editing solely because you welcomed them. It's best to wait until an edit is made and then provide a welcome if the edits are productive, and appropriate advice and warnings if they are not. It's a complete waste of time to add a welcome template to an account that may never be used, or may be used disruptively. If the community supported auto-welcomes with zero edits, we would have a bot do it. -- Ponyobons mots 20:37, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your CSD G11 tagging on Draft:Ceydy Lazo[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.


Just because a draft/article is an autobiography doesn't mean it's unambiguous promotion. I think the prose looks fine. The AfC queue is there so people can get feedback; therefore, the qualifications to be speedy deleted are a bit more lax. I don't know if you have the reviewer script, but I believe a decline is much more reasonable than a G11.

Asparagusus (interaction) 19:21, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no reviewer, just the notifier. If you believe so, you may delete the CSD. 多多123 () 19:25, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I declined the tag. You are too inexperienced to be tagging pages for deletion. Please stop.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:33, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. I believe this is only my second CSD nomination, I may be wrong, I previously nominated a user page for CSD G11, which was then deleted. 多多123 () 21:35, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Machon Shilo moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Machon Shilo, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 10:15, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
