Well is the best we can find on the web about it, if you check the page it has full information on who that man was and who where his children and all that stuff, out of that I do not think there are more public pages where we can show where the Mexican roots come from. TheBellaTwins1445 (talk) 19:09, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
Only FMSky can answer that. But when Wikipedia has no preference, there is no reason for introducing it and you probably shouldn't per MOS:STYLEVAR. Doing that just adds noise to other editors' watchlists. Robby.is.on (talk) 17:13, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
Okay, you see, that is a reasonable response. I thought I was getting bullied or trolled when I discovered that a near-dozen of my recent changes were rolled back. Thank you, Robby.
Hey, I have seen you remove Swedes on several articles now, this is despite that it is not a major example of an ethnicity/nationality. On the other hand looking at this discussion you argue for New York City to be linked which is a direct example on MOS:OVERLINK as.. an overlink. What gives? --TylerBurden (talk) 04:38, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
I dont argue to link NYC at all, in fact i remove it whenever i come across. Also Swedes are a major nationality but whatever --FMSky (talk) 04:40, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
It certainly looked like you were doing so in the linked discussion, as the person on the other end said multiple times. Sweden is a small country, many people don't even know it exists, so you knowing it doesn't mean everyone reading Wikipedia will, as MOS states: try to be conscious of your own demographic biases – what is well known in your age group, line of work, or country may be less known in others. Also maybe avoid calling people "clown", WP:NPA is a thing and it isn't some subjective manual, it's policy. TylerBurden (talk) 04:48, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
"Sweden is a small country, many people don't even know it exists", lmao what? i highly doubt that -- FMSky (talk) 04:54, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
You can doubt it all you want, that's not any reason for you to try and enforce your own understanding of what is an overlink and what is not, espescially when you make hypocritical edits like you did related to NYC. TylerBurden (talk) 04:56, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
Digging through edits all the way back to November, the month I started editing actively, to try and prove some kind of point with a person removing a link to Sweden which is not even the link in question, is certainly one way to respond to everything I have been saying here. Good work detective. TylerBurden (talk) 05:06, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
So other people have in my opinion the wrong impression about what major examples mean, the links are generally left alone, but once in a while someone like you comes along removing links to a nation with a population smaller than numerous US states, thinking that just because you know them everyone will. You're making a lot of bold claims about what other people know, and I think not reflecting on being aware of demographic biases at all. But you have stopped edit warring, I was mostly curious about your hypocrisy which you still haven't really addressed, but like you said, whatever. This is a waste of time, I'd say WP:BRD would be good in the future, if you feel so strongly about removing links to small nations and peoples, then gain consensus for it on said talk pages. TylerBurden (talk) 05:17, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
You're up, if you want to revert this time. I'm not going to be the only one who reverts on this. (FTR, this is a relatively new editor, and I'm not the only one who has had problems with them.) --IJBall (contribs • talk) 06:01, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
With Tonkin you could discuss on the requisite talk page her having been a model. From there it could be mentioned in the article, she could be identified as being both a model and actress, or both things.Pictureperfect2 (talk) 21:05, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
The modelling is mentioned but only in one sentence in the entire article (that also has a "citation needed" tag). So even if she has ever modelled, she's definitely not notable for it and it shouldnt be included as one of her occupations. --FMSky (talk) 21:08, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
You could certainly use a more humble tone on this site. I went back and put the tag up even though I feel you are incorrect. We can discuss these things. I'd like to know why you feel so invested in something with this much inconsequence.Pictureperfect2 (talk) 21:11, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
my last edit on that page was on 30 May and i even said i wont bother, so what are you even talking about? FMSky (talk) 21:13, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
If you want to go to each article where people are triple threat (act, sing, dance) or more (modeling) and "correct" them... that seems out of place . Nevertheless if you write about the modeling career a bit I guess you could leave info out. Plus someone does not currently have to be in an activity to be known for it.Pictureperfect2 (talk) 21:15, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi, this has been a disputed edit and has been reverted a bunch of times. Find consensus first before reinstating --FMSky (talk) 20:51, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello FMSky. On the article Shay Mitchell, you reverted several edits, saying the names of minors shouldn't be posted. Could you elaborate on that? The only reason I could now think of is child protection and BLP, but her name has been made public by her mother, it says it in the source. Thank you. ~~ lol1VNIO (I made a mistake? talk to me • contribs) 17:42, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
I could've sworn there was a guideline to not post kids names if they aren't notable but i can't seem to find it right now, so maybe i'm wrong.--FMSky (talk) 17:55, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
The problem with this is that the source that was used for No Malice's age actually supports a 1972 birth year. No Malice's original birth year on Wikipedia from years ago listed 1972 as his birth year. So, I feel that my edit was not disruptive and I simply changed an error.

Hey friend, I think the only proof we have of Barend recording bass for The God Machine is in a video. Would you like to see it? He was indeed the session musician for the recordings. Johan replaced him some time after he was done. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Friendlyyes (talk • contribs) 13:21, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi FMSky, I am currently trying to update wikis with up-to-date information, and the exciter album Exciter has false information. I've found nothing through Discogs that showed the album was reissued as O.T.T. or that the track "Termination" was a bonus track; It was present on all releases. https://www.discogs.com/master/301979-Exciter-Exciter
If you have any concrete proof like a photo of the original track listing without "Termination" or proof it was retitled as O.T.T. please show me. Thanks for your time. Kingofstillport (talk) 20:32, July 19, 2022 (UTC)

Hi FMSky, I've removed the COI template again, having read the WP:COI guidance about what constitutes reasonable grounds for its removal. I haven't added any info other than bibliographical data to keep the entry up to date and will continue to do so.

Sugar Ray’s “Fly” was not a number one hit. It was never released as a commercial single. Back then,that was the criteria to enter the Billboard Hot 100. Smokiewight (talk) 18:22, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
Per your edit summary, your suggestion that he was born in the Falklands is irrelevant, seems to show a remarkable lack of knowledge about the subject, since that is what he actually known for. I'm not going to indulge you in an edit war but per WP:BRD I would strongly suggest that you self-revert and take your issue to the talk page. WCMemail10:23, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
I disagree with your interpretation of the MOS and I don't see your changes as improving the article. Again I'm going to ask you to self-revert whilst there is a discussion. WCMemail10:36, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't revert my edition. The statistics are completely true and I have a lot of information about assist statistics; so I can even make the list better. You can see the sources. 10Blaugrana10 (talk) 00:38, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
They are reliable and famous. Their statistics are true. But if you have problems with them, I will replace them with other sources. 10Blaugrana10 (talk) 00:47, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Privated vs privatised in the Dodie page
You have recently reverted my edit changing privatised to privated. Privatised is typically defined as "transfer (a business, industry, or service) from public to private ownership and control". This is not what has happened here. Privated may not be a word in dictionaries, but it is a word used to describe the action of making a video private, making it a useful distinction from privatised, and a more accurate word in that sentence. Note the wiktionary page https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/private#Verb here it describes the use of the word private as a verb (as compared to privatise) to make something private. The past tense version given is privated. So whilst the standard dictionaries may not have caught up, the word privated is a word that is used, and is more accurate in this situation Farleigheditor (talk) 17:41, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Rangeblock
I just rangeblocked this range for unsourced edits. I noticed that you had reverted them a few times across a number of their IPs, so I thought you may be interested in case you wanted to spot check some of their remaining edits. No worries if not.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots21:11, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
thanks for that info, the page was tagged accordingly (WP:COI). also, just because "you manage the page" doesn't mean other people arent allowed to edit it. --FMSky (talk) 18:19, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
According to MOS:CAP, these captions are sentence _fragments_ not full sentences, which is why they are not punctuated with a period. That said, they _are_ normally capitalized. I think that corrupting her name in this way for a fragment is unwarranted, but I won't revert. Blainster (talk) 16:10, 7 August 2022 (UTC)

Northpark 1417
Hi, please don't re-add udp tags that I have removed from their articles. I added the tags in the first place and have checked them for neutrality before removing them. Also the udp case which I started was far from watertight and rested on Northparks refusal to confirm or deny any coi rather than compelling evidence apart from his use of high quality photos that he claimed as his own work, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 19:29, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Regarding your revert here. Reverting constructive edits without explanation, particularly when they specifically address what you said on a previous revert, is poor Wikipedia etiquette. If you have an issue with my edit, please say what it is. Thanks. Escape Orbit(Talk)10:07, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! - FlightTime (open channel)19:16, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi there, you reverted my changes on the Arlene Foster page on the basis it has to be notable. If someone already has a page, how is it not notable to include their career i.e. they were a practising solicitor and remains a qualified solicitor in Northern Ireland (but not practising). It is notable because it provides context to the persons overall life time achievements and it is mentioned in mumerous credible sources. If your logic was followed through to conclusion then the majority of the content should then also be purged. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheSquareMile (talk • contribs) 09:38, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi there, I see you haven't given me the courtesy of a reply. I assume based on my argument it is fine to include reference to a high-profile politician's career (when they were (1) a member of a local council, (2) member of the NI local assembly, (3) then became a government minister in NI meaning they had to devote their full-time to that job and left their profession as a practising solicitor.----- TheSquareMile (talk) 15:44, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello. Reaching out because I've noticed you've reverted rather a lot of my edits. Not trying to start an edit war with you, but please kindly explain why you did so. You've used the word "bulldoze" a few times I see, which isn't that descriptive since I merely added sourced material and credits, and rephrased clunky wording. It looks like you have a problem with awards being noted in the first paragraph of the lede? Its actually rather common, see: Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Daniel Day-Lewis, Julie Andrews, Viola Davis, Denzel Washington, Saoirse Ronan etc. Would love to discuss with you before you just revert what you don't agree with. It would especially be more constructive to comment on talk page as well before reverting. Thanks.The One I Left (talk) 14:27, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
*Name(s) and title(s), if any (see also WP:NCNOB). Handling of the subject's name is covered under MOS:NAMES.
*Dates of birth and death, if found in secondary sources (do not use primary sources for birth dates of living persons or other private details about them).
*Context (location, nationality, etc.) for the activities that made the person notable.
*One, or possibly more, noteworthy positions, activities, or roles that the person held, avoiding subjective or contentious terms.
*The main reason the person is notable (key accomplishment, record, etc.)
an opening paragraph that just contains "...XY is an american actor. He has received multiple awards, including XY, and was rated YX" is useless --FMSky (talk) 14:52, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
So you agree! You reverted a bunch of my edits, saying awards should not be in lead, and literally one of those is "key accomplishment, record, etc." I really don't want have to undo your reversions but I might. Definitely don't recommend mass reverting without talking to editor or opening it up for discussion. You also never answered my question re: Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, Daniel Day-Lewis, Julie Andrews, Viola Davis, Denzel Washington, Saoirse Ronan?The One I Left (talk)
I might once i've cleaned up the other mess. Also instead of telling me to discuss on a talk page first, why dont you do that before rewriting an entire lead? --FMSky (talk) 15:01, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
This is still more informative than a list of awards that tells absolutely nothing. It doesnt have to be a laundry list of films, literally just the best known role / breakout role would be enough. Even though its overused, but the "he/she is best known for" is often the simplest and best way. After that the awards can be mentioned if necessary--FMSky (talk) 15:11, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
No it isnt. They all say what the person is known for (even though its very short in some cases). The Dave Chappelle one literally didnt mention anything. --FMSky (talk) 15:20, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
LMFAOOOO. You can't be serious. You really reverted a bunch of stuff when you could've added literally two or three words. Why didn't you just add that?? I'm really trying to understand you, first you said you wanted to name a few credits, but now you're saying you can say a few words. For Betty White's first lede paragraph, I was thinking, "(Name birth date etc..) A pioneer of early television, White was noted for her lengthy career in television acting in sitcoms as well as her numerous appearances on game shows. She received etc awards". Fine by you? The One I Left (talk) 15:22, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
There are several things wrong with that article lmao. First off, it name drops Mayor of Hollywood which isn't notable at all, it names obscure early shows when it should just introduce who she is and what she's BEST known for. The lede for Betty White is overstuffed with redundant and superfluous "accomplishments". It's a mess. Reads like a fanboy's website and not as a legitimate lede. I would remove unnoteworthy awards such as American Comedy Awards and move that to the front so it should read as I previous mentioned. I would be a much cleaner accurate first paragraph for lede. The way it is now is sloppy The One I Left (talk) 15:50, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
That's what I did!! To what specifically are you referring to? Now I know your point of view I will add the sentence, "A pioneer of early television, White was noted for her lengthy career in television acting in sitcoms as well as her numerous appearances on game shows." in the first paragraph of lede.
I literally dont see anything wrong with the opening paragraph at all, its actually a textbook example of a well-written one. So please, discuss your changes on the article's talk page first before changing againFMSky (talk) 16:04, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
That is wilddd. I don't understand how name dropping Mayor of Hollywood and an obscure tv show in the first paragraph of the lede is "textbook example of a well-written lede" I'm trying to understand your thought process but you're just full of contradictions. lmfao
dont you think this is kinda of relevant: "being one of the first women to work both in front of and behind the camera. She was the first woman to produce a sitcom (Life with Elizabeth) in the United States". again, propose the changes on the articles talk page please FMSky (talk) 16:23, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
So yes! But not in the first paragraph of the lede. I'm specifically talking about the first paragraph. I would add it in the second paragraph, and I would remove "in the United States" its redundant and unnecessary".The One I Left (talk) 16:26, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
