Also these two users: Rusoscal and Pumconi who vandalized the page Capuchino[3] of the Spanish Wikipedia are obvious sockpuppets of Sapsby/Xiaomichel (they wrote practically the exact same things that Sapsby wrote here on the English Wikipedia; as you can clearly see by looking at their only contributions:[4][5] ). And he also vandalized the page Café expreso[6] through many IPs; eliminating its Italian origin and trying to transform it into something French... [7]82.55.77.241 (talk) 16:51, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
To create a Wikipedia page on wars involving Tunisia, one can structure it similarly to the provided well built pages such as Egypt or the Kingdom of Morocco's military history.
The page shall be divided into sections based on historical periods, such as the Hafsid dynasty, Ottoman Tunisia, the Beylik of Tunis, and modern Tunisia. Each section should list significant conflicts, their combatants, outcomes, and relevant treaties or events.
I litteraly don't understand why you did not even read my version.
Please tell exactly what the current one is accurate.
Hi, I protected List of wars involving Tunisia because the page has been edited by one or more users using multiple accounts to edit the page in violation of Wikipedia policy. I apologize if you are unconnected to those accounts and have been trying to make constructive edits. If so, you are still welcome to discuss them and request that they be made on the article's talk page. You could also make an account which will, after make enough constructive contributions elsewhere, be allowed to edit the page. GoodnightmushTalk17:00, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for the explanation and for your vigilance in maintaining Wikipedia's standards. I understand the need to protect the integrity of the page, and I appreciate the opportunity to discuss any potential edits on the article's talk page. I'll certainly consider creating an account to contribute more effectively. In the meantime, I'll share any suggestions I have through the talk page to help ensure the accuracy and completeness of the content. Thanks again for your understanding and for your work on Wikipedia.
Still I worked a lot on the page I have edited. Because the one you restore is very incomplete and SHALL be improved.
Hi, could you please change the protection of the cappuccino page and add it to the other two? See recent page histories for information. Thank you very much in advance.
Also, I'll just quickly suggest that, although it's totally fine to edit your own talk page messages for a short while after you post them, if you are making changes later (e.g., the next day like here), you are encouraged to add them as separate comments or otherwise make clear that they are later changes (per WP:TALK#REVISE). And you are strongly discouraged from making edits if anyone has replied to you (not that that happened here, but just mentioning it). GoodnightmushTalk14:08, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Editors can now enter into good article review circles, an alternative for informal quid pro quo arrangements, to have a GAN reviewed in return for reviewing a different editor's nomination.
It's a secondary source that yes, refers to rotten tomatoes, but discusses the reception of audiences being radically different than the critics. That's the point of the source, and that's why it matters in this context and is allowable. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:09, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
@Hammersoft: Thanks for reaching out, rather than just reverting. My view is that since the cited MSN article is just pointing to RT as its evidence for the reception of audiences having a different view than critics (and we don't use RT to assess audience reception), we can't rely on it. If MSN had any other evidence for a positive audience reception, I'd agree with you. But it seems like they just have RT and a press release from the producer of the movie claiming a positive audience reception, which is definitely not a reliable source. If there's a real, rigorous poll showing a positive audience reception (CinemaScore or something like that), I'd be persuaded. GoodnightmushTalk15:38, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
Following a discussion, the speedy deletion reason "File pages without a corresponding file" has been moved from criterion G8 to F2. This does not change what can be speedily deleted.
