A Barnstar for Little Bear

I hereby award this barnstar for such great work in Little Bear.

Thank you for contributing & helping at Little Bear (TV series). If this keeps happening, I’m wondering if we could get the page semi protected due to vandalism. I appreciate you monitoring the page! Happy New Year! Elvisisalive95 (talk) 19:59, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Sorry i couldn’t get the format correct! Elvisisalive95 (talk) 19:59, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Apologize

An apologize for my behavior about the edits on the Peter Gadiot's page. I didn't understand the point but i do now. 2806:2F0:41A4:DA22:B5BB:3BAB:23E1:C3A2 (talk) 00:18, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

I understand that MOS:CONTEXTBIO can be a bit confusing but the intent for people with multiple citizenships and nationalities, like Gadiot, is to only consider as important the one they are or have used for whatever activities made them notable. Others are part of their life history and belong in the article if sourced, but not generally as lead content. Geraldo Perez (talk) 00:42, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Change Peter Gadiot's picture as per actor's request

Hello, Pls assist to make the changes as requested by the actor himself in the new Q&A session he did Jan 10, 2024. It is still active on his IS and he has been asked to ensure it stays accessible. He has noted several incorrect statements on his wiki page. How do I attach screenshot of his request for you to verify? tx Dgadj (talk) 14:21, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

@Dgadj: Provide a link to the instagram message itself or at least enough information that someone can find it directly. A screenshot can't be used as an official source as it would not be considered a reliable source. That needs to be in the article as a reference for at least his name. See how the other instagram source used in the article does it. The current picture may not flatter him as he likes but it is a good representation. The one on eswiki, even ignoring the likely copyvio, obscures his face. We must use images that are free-use and taken by the uploader or obtained from a source with the proper license. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:54, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. Short stories on IG expire. The one currently active will expire unless he posts it as accessible. Unfortunately there is no link, but it has been verified and subject himself denies Mexican naturalization status. You are free to check.

As far as photos, he requested a more recent one. As a model and an actor, there is an abundance of professional images of him in the public domain with confirmed sources. 66.7.91.106 (talk) 17:59, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Ask him to make it not expire so we can use it as a reference or post the information somewhere else on his page so we can use it as a reference. Current link to info is https://www.instagram.com/stories/petergadiot/3277541738143232914/ but if it goes away we just have the words of unreliable sources of what it stated so future people won't be able to verify the information.

It is not easy to obtain free-use images of people. I strongly doubt that any professional photographer would release any of their work in public domain. Most of the images on the net have restricted copyrights that prevent Wiki Commons from hosting it. See C:COM:Licencing for what is required for an image to be used on Wikipedia for a living person's article. Geraldo Perez (talk) 18:39, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

I have asked him, hopefully he gets to the request bc with a Q&A session he says he gets hundreds of Qs. 66.7.91.106 (talk) 21:03, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

He has now archived the Instagram story as part of his highlights, so editors will be able to verify it after the 24 hours Dantus21 (talk) 02:23, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Good. Link to info is now at https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17852227543397579/ page 28 I updated the cite in the article. Geraldo Perez (talk) 02:48, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

MOS-violating warrior at ANEW

Hi Geraldo Perez,

Just thought I'd let you know, I have filed a report of the 185.40.211.27 and 178.135.20.159 IP addresses over at WP:ANEW for their long-term edit-warring against MoS on multiple articles. Link to thread here if you have anything to add or to discuss if they respond. Thank you. — AP 499D25 (talk) 00:35, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Notice of Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Mass category creations and additions by Ernsanchez00 without discussion. Thank you. Amaury • 20:11, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Ping MPFitz1968 as well, as I know you recently nominated one of their categories for deletion. I've started a thread on this user, if either of you would like to comment. This is borderline disruptive. Amaury • 20:13, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Reverted my edit at Phoebe Tonkin

Hey, I was just wondering what I did wrong with my edit of Phoebe Tonkin that you reverted. You said it was unsourced, but if you look at the parts I added, they were all referenced and sourced.

Plus, I added new information as the article was outdated.

Just curious so I know what ro do next time.

Thanks, SLLS Samuelloveslennonstella (talk) 09:40, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Basically stating sex symbol and that she was acclaimed are unsourced and fluff. Also excessive detail for the lead. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:59, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I will keep that in mind. Thank you for your feedback. Samuelloveslennonstella (talk) 00:30, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

Mass Category Creations by Ernsanchez00

Hello, i’ve noticed you’ve run into User:Ernsanchez00’s category additions. It was brought up on Administrator’s Incident Board a few days ago, it can be find toward the bottom of the page Here. I believe this coincides with this discussion and I don’t think it should continue to go on the way it has been. It’s creating a lot more work for users like you, whom have to go and manually revert all of these edits. It doesn’t seem constructive. I just wanted to bring this to your attention sooner rather than later. Thanks. Elvisisalive95 (talk) 16:37, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

@Elvisisalive95: It looks like the discussion got archived with no resolution. I left a message on his talk page about the issue. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:17, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

I found that odd as well, sounds good. Hopefully we can get this to come to a stop. Thanks again. Elvisisalive95 (talk) 17:19, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Also, what he has been doing is being overly appologetic to the editor’s that bring these things to his attention, but then just continues on with his mass category additions.. i’m skeptical, we will have to keep an eye out! Elvisisalive95 (talk) 17:24, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

We need to assume good faith and give info to aid in apparent lack of knowledge. At some point, if it looks like instruction isn't working, we can look to other remedies. Still have to show that a serious effort has been made to fix things with communication before any other remedies will be considered. At this point I see good faith but WP:CIR issues. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Of course my friend. Always assume good faith, I just say that because it has still been ongoing even after that discussion. One editor in that Archive suggested him stop adding categories for the time being but that sort of fell through the cracks. I like the way you went about it on his talk page and gave him all necessary information & then we go from there. I’ll see you around! Elvisisalive95 (talk) 17:40, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Tvx1 reported by User:Amaury (Result: ). Thank you. Amaury • 23:39, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

February 2024

You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Joely Collins) for a period of 1 week for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:41, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion

Please see the history and talk page, specifically. Geraldo, you understand copyright stuff a lot better than I do, and I have seen you revert things as being copyright violations on Commons yourself. I am disengaging for now, but I would appreciate some input from you on the talk page since, as mentioned, you understand this stuff a lot better than I do. I also note that the IP has quite a few blocks for vandalism/disruption and, ironically, abusing multiple accounts. PS: I am glad your partial block is over. You did nothing wrong. All of it could have been avoided if the other editor followed WP:BRD, but that will be my only comment on the matter since it's mostly in the past now.. Amaury • 22:33, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

File description on Commons at C:File:Logo de la série "Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion" de Disney.png claimed public domain as design too simple to be copyrighted. No copyright issues using that logo in any article. I'd say it is on the edge of having sufficient creative content to copyright but the image has been on Commons since 2022 and not challenged since then. Geraldo Perez (talk) 22:51, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, Geraldo. Based on your explanation, I have self-reverted. Amaury • 22:55, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Mulan link

the link went to the middle of the article which was confusing. What should we do about it? Kelly222 (talk) 05:02, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

@Kelly222: The link Hua Mulan is to an overall article about the character. The Ballad of Mulan is the folk story she originally appeared in and the section in the Hua Mulan article that it links to is the description of the ballad itself, which is appropriate in the context where the link is used which talks about the ballad. Everything is working as it should. There isn't a separate article on The Ballad of Mulan so the redirect linking to a section of another article that describes the ballad is what we need to do. Geraldo Perez (talk) 05:21, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Scholars debate where she first appeared in the written record. It makes more sense for the reader to start with Hua at the top of the article. Indeed the too of the article actually says it's s redirect from the Ballad. Kelly222 (talk) 10:02, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

the top not the too Kelly222 (talk) 10:02, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

In the article Mulan (2020 film) the context is the phrase "based on the Chinese folklore story Ballad of Mulan." It is talking about the basis for the film itself, not the main character. A link to an article about that story is appropriate in that location. That is where the link goes to, a section of another article, that describes the story the film is based on that is used in lieu of their not being a separate article about the ballad. If the article were talking about the historical figure, than a link to Hua Mulan would be appropriate. When you get to any article via a redirect, that message appears automatically. It is not part of the article itself. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:44, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Noisey2021

@MPFitz1968: I have reported this uncommunicative user to WP:AIAV for long-term disruption and the aforementioned no effort to discuss things. We'll see if something happens; otherwise, I may go to WP:ANI. Amaury • 18:41, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

WP:LTA/TVFT

You know this stuff better than I do. See history of Freej and The Jimmy Timmy Power Hour, for example. Can you request a range block? This sock has changed tactics. Amaury • 15:42, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

@Amaury: Geo locates to Tunisia. I've seen this editor a lot and he is a problem. Uses a large number of ranges to do basically the same type of edits, there were at least 10 large ranges when I was actively watching this. There would need to be multiple ranges blocked to totally stop this and too much collateral damage to other editors. Not much to do other than watching, warning and reporting, but in my opinion basically pointless to try to block. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:38, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

So annoying. (Not you, of course, the IP. LOL) :( Amaury • 02:12, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Update: A bunch of the articles have been semi-protected, some indefinitely, following RFPP. So, hopefully that will help. Amaury • 08:06, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

List of Hunter Street episodes

I may need more eyes here with a generally disruptive editor known as Lado85, at least on the Nickelodeon articles I've crossed paths with them. They appear to have a language barrier, which is fine, of course, as not everyone knows English, but it causes problems because I don't think they may be aware they are being disruptive. Or maybe they are and don't care. I don't know. See also User talk:Amaury/2022/January#Blocked for 48 hours due to edit warring, where they got me blocked temporarily after filing a report at WP:AIAV and falsely accused me of vandalism. The block reason given thankfully wasn't that, and I got the block reversed. But I don't feel like going down that rabbit hole again with them, because knowing them, they may try to falsely accuse me again of vandalism or whatever. On the article itself, the WP:STATUSQUO is that directors and writers are not listed in the episode tables and instead in the infobox of the main article. The reason being that this series in particular, for some reason, has especially multiple writers per episode and listing them all in the tables makes them look ugly. Just because the information is there doesn't mean it has to be in the article or in the article the traditional way, similar to how just because something passes WP:VERIFY, it doesn't mean it merits inclusion. WP:DUE and WP:UNDUE must also be considered. Ping MPFitz1968 as well. Amaury • 09:12, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

There are writers and directors in all shows lists Why is this problem for you here? And why only directors and writers added by me? Season 3 has this information for long time. Your comment- "I said there are too many directors and writers for *this* series, making the episode tables look ugly. You can take this up on the talk page. Stop being disruptive, as per WP:BRD. " Not me you are disruptive And your action is simply vandalism. Ugly is air date cells, stretched on half of page. Too many writers are only in season 1. Why do you delete season 2 and 4, and keep season 3? In season 4 are only one director and writer per episode. In season 3, 2-3 writers per episode. Your actions and words are contradictory to each other. I wrote to talk page, but you keep ignoring. Lado85 (talk) 09:17, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

They got you blocked that time because you vandalized a page. You continued to delete information about season 4, that was aired in all around the world, because it wasn't (and still isn't) aired in USA. And you said there is no season 4 till it will be aired in USA. Lado85 (talk) Lado85 (talk) 09:22, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Do not cross-post what you've posted there here. Keep the discussion to one place. The only one being disruptive here is you. Whoever added directors and writers shouldn't have, and that's been corrected. But I am not discussing this here with you. I will post on the talk page when I am good and ready, not because you are ordering me to within minutes of you starting a topic. And I suggest you quit contribution stalking me and falsely accusing me. There was no such vandalism on my part. Maybe try reading the actual reason given for the block, which I got reversed, in any case. Amaury • 09:27, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

I cross-posted this here, because you are ignoring me there. Lado85 (talk) 09:32, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

You posted the discussion at 2:00 AM, then came crying here at 2:17 AM because I was apparently ignoring it. I responded there to another user at 2:38 AM. That's only a span of 38 minutes. Wikipedia isn't an instant messaging app like Discord. Replies aren't always going to be instant, and some people here sometimes don't even have the chance to respond to something until a day or so later because people have lives and are busy. And even on an instant messaging app, people are sometimes busy and can't respond right away. And, of course, as I predicted, you went running to WP:AIAV to falsely accuse me of vandalism again because you aren't getting your way. You may want to read up on WP:VANDAL and learn what a vandal actually is. If you can't, then you shouldn't be editing here. I also suggest you self-revert your latest edit to the episode list, as you are clearly edit warring now. Amaury • 09:47, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

I see this is being discussed on the article talk page so expect consensus resolution to happen with discussion. I personally don't like writers and directors to be in the series infobox unless there are a very few and those few are responsible for all the episodes. Normal practice is list them in the episode list for the episodes they are responsible for. Geraldo Perez (talk) 02:52, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Geraldo, just to clarify, my reason for posting here was for assistance with Lado85's edit warring on the article of reinserting content that did not have consensus at the time, not on the discussion itself. I will defer to you on the infobox and the episode table, but if you take a look at the episode table currently, you'll see what I mean by "ugly" due to how many writers this series has, especially for the first season. However, at least for me, the point is moot as I no longer have any interest in watching the article and will be abandoning the discussion. Amaury • 04:13, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Alexa Nikolas and Talk:Alexa Nikolas

I previously inquired to you about this at User talk:Geraldo Perez/Archive 32#Alexa Nikolas. I am also going to ping MPFitz1968 again, as something strange is going on here. Specifically, the last two discussions (15 and 16) on the talk page, as of writing this. I don't know how to handle this, as I previously thought the other user was possibly trolling—still unsure on that—but now a different user has shown up appearing to take the stance opposite the other user, and I don't know if their statement in the last discussion (16) borders on WP:LEGAL, with them claiming the other user is possibly a stalker. Could you please have a look? Thank you. Amaury • 20:09, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Hard to say. It looks like a legal threat against a Wiki editor. A report to WP:ANI may be appropriate here and let others who can enforce sanctions and are more aware of the legal issues look at it. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:20, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Expatriate categories

Hello! Despite your statement in in this edit summary that expatriate related categories are restricted to present tense only, this does not seem the case in practice. No matter the size, expatriate-related categories include former expatriates. See similar categories such as Category:American expatriates in France and Category:Mongolian expatriates in Japan listing some deceased people.

If past tense people and situations (e.g. article subjects who returned to their home country, moved elsewhere, or died, or regime change led to a nation's collapse) could not be included, every subcategory under Category:Expatriates in the Soviet Union would have been emptied and deleted under WP:C1 because the Soviet Union has split into several countries. As yet another counterexample to your point, note that diplomat-related categories such as Category:Ambassadors of Qatar to Canada eventually can be traced back to Category:Expatriates in Canada and Category:Qatari expatriates, but after a diplomat's tenure has ended, the category is not removed from the article about them. There are also sport-specific expatriate categories, like Category:Expatriate men's footballers in Albania, but some in that category have moved onto other leagues in other countries, meaning that not everyone listed in that category are currently in Albania, although the category correctly remains on their page. Vycl1994 (talk) 19:37, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

@Vycl1994: If anything those categories should be cleaned up. Some due to WP:CATVER issues, others due to WP:NOTDEFINING. In the case of Huang he lived in Thailand for four years as a young child due to his parents choice - not his, did nothing notable there, and it had no stated impact on his future notable activities. I would support the expat categories for a bio article only if a person's life in a that country was somehow related to his notability, not just a passing part of their childhood or irrelevant to anything they did. Generally that means where they currently reside as an expat or, if for the past, they lived a significant and notable part of their life as an expat there.

Herman and Katnip

Hi, I see that you've reverted somebody several times who's trying to add both "Animated characters introduced in 1944" and "Animated characters introduced in 1950" to Herman and Katnip. The reason why they're doing that is because Herman was introduced in 1944, and Katnip was introduced in 1950. Just a heads up for what's going on there. :) Toughpigs (talk) 04:52, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

IP: 1.145.35.251

Hello Geraldo, To let you know the Australian IP who is constantly changing "special effects" is now operating from IP:1.145.35.251, having been blocked from 101.180.97.95 and previously operating from 1.145.121.196. I have reported the latest round of changes to the Admins, but have not the time to change all the edit-warring back to the original consensus versions. Regards, David, David J Johnson (talk) 10:54, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Reverted edit in Inside Out 2

Hi Geraldo, I noticed that you reverted my edit on Inside Out 2 with an edit summary saying "unsorced". However, I did not add any new information to the article and instead just changed some grammar. I know that the issue I was trying to solve has since been fixed, but I guess I just want to ask you why you did that? I have no idea how Twinkle works but did you just see that I added 2 bytes of data to the article and since I didn't add a source, reverted it? Sorry if I sound too accusatory. I have a lot of respect for your anti-vandalism work. Cheers. GoldRomean (talk) 02:33, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

@GoldRomean: The unsourced content I was referring to in my edit summary was made by a string of edits by an IP before your edit. It looks like you fixed a grammar error made by the IP edits so it got undone as it was tied to what the IP did. I did try to revert the IP edits only but your changes prevented that as it modified what the IP changed. My edit summary was related to the string of edits I reverted, not yours directly. Geraldo Perez (talk) 03:01, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I understand now. Thanks for clearing things up. GoldRomean (talk) 12:50, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Bettany-Rhys-Jones connection

Regardless of how Paul Bettany and Duchess Sophie are connected, why don’t you think it might be worth mentioning that her godfather’s son is a world famous actor? It’s sourced and doesn’t take up much room. AzXpOmU (talk) 03:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

And I hope this doesn’t spiral into an argument. I’m just curious. AzXpOmU (talk) 03:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

@AzXpOmU: I commented on Bettany's talk page. Basically it just mentions something their grandparents did and that connection is so far removed to the point of being irrelevant to their lives. It is not a relationship of any practical sort. If that connection led to something notable it might be worth mentioning, but so far is has nothing to do with either of them and impacts neither of their lives in any way.
