— Jacona (talk) 14:06, 18 October 2023 (UTC) Lost-cause terminology in Wikipedia: AntebellumThere are a number of articles that use the term "antebellum", a romanticized latin phrase, to describe places, times, people or events that occurred in the United States before the American Civil War. One particularly annoying instance is Antebellum United States, which redirects to Antebellum South, as if the pre-Civil War history of the entire United States was that of the South. That's pretty nasty. — Jacona (talk) 18:57, 18 October 2023 (UTC) A Barnstar for you!
Henry James Cambie Secondary School / citing newpapapers.comHi Jacona, I have limited time today to work on Henry James Cambie Secondary School, and I restored your work from Oct. 17. I also repaired the links to articles on newpapers.com, as linking to the WPLibrary clippings has problems for viewers who cannot login to WPLibrary. See the discussion here for how to convert the links. It's clunky and painful, and there are rumors that a bot may be in the works to do the conversions, but for now it's a manual correction. The shared history of Richmond HS and HJ Cambie until 1953 complicates the narratives for each article. I haven't figured out how to address it, so any suggestions you have would be welcome. Cheers! — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 16:55, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
copyvio-revdel templateThanks for flagging up the long-standing copyvio on Christian Academy of Madison. You seem to have got a bit confused with {{copyvio-revdel}} (not surprising, it's not the easiest to work out) but for future use, the parameters starting The parameters

High School notability discussionHi. My deletion nomination for Heritage High School (Brentwood, California) was reverted, citing WP:NEXIST by you. At the same time, my draft for a non-American high school Draft:İstiklal_Makzume_Anadolu_Lisesi was declined for the second time due to WP:GNG by another editor. The draft looks much stronger to me in terms of demonstrated notability, compared to the page in PROD. I got a feeling these decisions are not consistent and hurting Wikipedia's neutrality, by over-representing high schools with certain characteristics, e.g. English-speaking countries. If it is this difficult to prove notability, should we at least add something like "notability disputed" for Heritage High School?

Boost MobileI'm sorry my truth about Boost Mobile was inconvenient to your ad. So, since you work for the company, I'd like to have a talk with you before I go to my media contact at Channel 7 Denver. You down? Or should we just go ahead without your side of the story? 73.78.200.61 (talk) 04:25, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
Excessive welcomesYou're doing an insane number of welcomes seconds after edits. You can't possibly have checked if my edit was vandalism before welcoming me. 95.80.28.44 (talk) 07:05, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

Hillview High School (Orange County, California)Nice work on that article! You did a lot of lifting to find material. By the way, I think I'm right behind you at 999,999,995,238th most active Wikipedian. --Hammersoft (talk) 13:16, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
EditHi, the edit was supposed to help distinguish the difference between the term as i have heard people use the terms interchangeably. I think it should remain on the page 2001:1970:5E9E:A500:781B:6315:B42:BDF2 (talk) 15:38, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Port Tampa Negro SchoolHi, Jacona! Totally irrelevant to my purpose here, but I like what you do here at Wikipedia. (I'm just a newb, but I still like it!) If you aren't doing so already, would you be willing to track down the beginnings and early history of Port Tampa Negro School? I'm working through a backlog and that's how I came across the article. If it weren't for the backlog, I'd do it myself. If it weren't a pre-segregation black school, I'd just ignore the issue. But these schools matter, and you can bet your paycheck that every cotton forced-labor farm in Leon county, Florida gets its story told here. I'm NOT trying to pretend to have any Wikipedia authority. I'm just a small Wikier, but you seem like someone any decent, respectful person could approach.Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 21:08, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
