ThanksFor all the very helpful gnome work you have been doing of late on school articles. One thing most school articles seem to need is updates on enrollment and demographic numbers. And the good news is......they are really simple to update! There is a federal government website that publishes stats on all schools, public and private. Its called NCES. (sorry I don't have the link, as I'm on my phone, but it's the first hit if you Google the term). The public schools ate usually a year behind and private schools three years behind, but that's usually an improvement. Thanks for all you do!

Rose TylerHi! Sorry if my revert seemed a little rude. I reverted your edit for both consistency with other television fictional character articles, and other good articles in the Doctor Who/Torchwood wikiproject. Paragraphs are usually grouped together because of subject rather than length; an example from the Rose Tyler article I reverted is that the Television Appearnces section generally follows a one paragraph per series format. I felt that the revised version showed too much whitespace; especially on anything above a medium sized computer monitor. Hope that makes sense Eshlare (talk) 16:26, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
LongeingHi Jessica, I actually kept the edits you made on several other articles, but as this diff shows, you actually entered a BUNCH of errors with your edits to this particular article. Some fixes were helpful, but there were so many others that changed tense, altered an intended nuance, or just simple errors, it was easier to revert. What I did just now was to take the position that you edited something because there was a possible problem, and then I restored some, but not all, of your fixes. I also caught a couple other things along the way that I tweaked. If you have further questions, feel free to ping at the article's talk page or here - I'll watchlist your talk.

User:John from Idegon submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week: I nominate Editor Jessicapierce to be Editor of the Week for her long term diligent copyediting. This is the kind of editor we created this award for! She is not super active, none of her work is controversial; she just picks a topic and gnomes away quietly and unobtrusively, making the encyclopedia a better tool for its users. Her edit count on Mr. X's tools is for lack of a better word, pretty. I remember back when we were first discussing the creation of this award, and I cannot think of an editor that better fulfills what our intentions were for this! I became aware of her just recently, as her chosen topic at the moment is schools, my usual topic. Her edits are very helpful, and I noticed no one has really ever thanked her for them. Let's thank her in a big way and give her an Eddy! This nomination was seconded by User:L235 and User:Buster7. You can copy the following text to your user page to display a user box proclaiming your selection as Editor of the Week: {{subst:Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week/Recipient user box}}

Removal of referencesHi. I've reverted your changes to the List of people from Oakville, Ontario. Although the copy-editing is appreciated, you also removed a lot of references from the article. Although the links are now dead, they are still valid references and should not be removed. See Wikipedia:Link rot. If you've done this with other articles, you should go back and restore the references. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 00:09, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

First of all thank you for correcting the capitalization on the Central bank title. However, regarding the removal of the (Cyprus) part from National Bank of Greece, Piraeus Bank and Societe Generale Bank, I believe you will find that it is an essential part of the banks' names and not just part of their legal names, as it differentiates them from their parent banks.

Hi, Ireland and UKHi, thank you for your edits to List of fashion designers - I had to revert your move of Ireland to the UK section, as while I know you meant well, the majority of Ireland is actually NOT part of the UK (and quite a lot of Irish people HATE it when it's assumed they are "British".) Rather than trying to single out which Irish designers (if any) are from the tiny percentage that is under the United Kingdom umbrella, it really is much easier to treat the whole of Ireland as a county in its own right.

Hey, Jessica! Thanks for your reply. I agree that the MOS is not clear on such points as this, which is why we must therefore consider other sources. Every source I've come across that refers to films has the film title in italics. Even looking at Wikipedia, whenever a film title is referenced, it is in italic font. See for example this link and this link for examples. As for the genre of the film, it may well qualify as historical fiction rather than any other genre, as the film in question is based on Book of Mormon events. As far as book series goes, that's a different case because it's not a film, so the italics rule doesn't apply. Typically a book series will be bolded and the only genre italicized would be the name of a periodical, such as Deseret News or Church News, or any one of the periodical magazines put out like magazines from the LDS Church or Readers Digest. So, in review, periodicals are italicized; book series are typically in bold typeface. Hope that makes sense. It could be that we'll need to revisit the subject of italics as it relates to the book series, which should be in bold, as the sources seem to indicate. Hope that makes sense. For actual sources, I appeal to Wikipedia as well as my proofreading skills inherited from my mother. Hope that sufficiently explains things. --Jgstokes (talk) 01:30, 17 June 2016 (UTC) WikiProject Eurovision Invitation!You may also wish to receive our Project's newsletter; if so then please add your name to the mailing list.

Using the other parts of the text I finally found a source for the paper. The "they is" you noticed was supposed to be "they report is", as in:

You forgot to check for redirects per MOS:HEAD which states "Before changing a section heading, consider whether you might be breaking existing links to that section. If there are many links to the old section title, create an anchor with that title to ensure that the links still work." This caused some links to section headings to break because they are case sentative, but it was easily fixable. I'm guessing you probably knew this and this was just a slip up, which happens to us all, but explaining just in case not. Keep up the generally great copy editing.

Changing sports team mascots from plural to singularHi there, thanks for editing articles about Oregon high schools. I'm curious what your rationale is for making the sports team names singular, as in Bonanza Jr./Sr. High School, here. I went ahead and changed it back to plural, because in the case of the Antlers, it really doesn't make any sense it would be singular. Rather than do a mass change of these back to plural, can you point me to some guideline about these names of which I am unaware? I suppose it could be a quibble between "sports team name" and "mascot". In the case of the Antlers, it is more of a nickname (see the logo is actually an elk) for the team than a mascot that is just an antler, singular. See also the Everett Aquasox, where their mascot is actually a frog, the team name is "Aquasox" and there is no "aquasock" to be found! Or my hometown, whose baseball team has long been know as The Emeralds, but the mascot isn't an Emerald, singular. Recently it acquired a sasquatch as a mascot, but I digress. Looking more closely, it looks like {{Infobox school}} has a space for nickname or "team name"--would it make more sense to you to change the team names from "mascot" to "nickname" or "team name"? I like changing it to "team name" and leaving the names plural, personally. Another fun Oregon team name is the "Honkers", whose logo is of a Canada goose. I think that one should be plural too.

Thank you + invitation
Wilson High School (Los Angeles)I see you've made improvements to the Wilson HS page before so I'm contacting you for support. I made many significant improvements in August, and I invite you to look. Since then another editor first deleted a citation with no justification, an anon user undid that change, then that editor deleted the citation again. I didn't notice this until I made another addition to the alumni section in September. At that time I reinserted the citation. That's kind of trivial, but now I find that editor has deleted not just the citation but the whole section of text on "popular culture" that citation was part of. I indicated to that editor (s)he should justify major deletions on the talk page but (s)he just reverted anyway. Please take a look and and if you agree, support me on the talk page. If this turns into an edit war I'm going to have to ask for moderation, but maybe just support from another editor like you will make that person be reasonable and stop.Lapabc (talk) 00:16, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

Do you personally know anything about Cambodia Jessicapierce or are you just being a busybody, because I'm here on the ground and have 8 years of experience working in this culture and with children. The fact you maintain false information is not good for anyone, it makes Wikipedia not a credible source, it damages the reputation for Cambodia unjustly, and even worse, people with bad intentions reading this think it's true and will come to Cambodia.

I do not have time to write sourced accurate information, but that does not mean Wikipedia has the right to maintain false information written by others and present it as fact, and that is why I made these corrections.

Removing my edits regarding ceriumIn the explanation you wrote, that my edit has introduced some errors. Could you please be more specific? I am a mineralogist and I assure you that I know what are the correct names of minerals... I would like to kindly suggest getting known with the International Mineralogical Association (IMA) List of Minerals (http://nrmima.nrm.se/) and also Mindat (www.mindat.org) to see that "monazite", "microlite" and so on are NOT the correct mineral names. Some of you write that articles like that on Cerium are not mineralogical and chemical... FeTa2O6 and MnTa2O6 are CHEMICAL formulas. "Microlite" is the most important ERROR that WAS in the Cerium page until I've corrected/explained it. "Microlite" is now a group name under the pyrochlore supergroup. And mineralogy is a science. Also, there is a reason for what we've got GEOchemistry. So, FeTa2O6 is tantalite-(Fe) (and not tantalite), MnTa2O6 is tantalite-(Mn) (and not tantalite). But, if Wikipedia wants its own "rights" to describe science, well... I though specialists are needed here exactly to make the Wikipedia articles better. Seems like I was wrong.

Thanks for your work on List of Deshastha BrahminsHi Jessica, Thank you so much for your great work on List of Deshastha Brahmins. If you get chance please could you take a look at some other marathi communities. Someone has complained about grammatical errors in Pathare_Prabhu but I am not able to spot them. Also, I suspect there are some errors(formatting or convention) in the listings of notables in Chandraseniya_Kayastha_Prabhu and Chitpavan. Please can you give them a quick glance as per your convenience and suggest any improvements in the listings? Is there any specified format that is used by wikipedia for listing notables? Thanks--Acharya63 (talk) 07:01, 29 March 2018 (UTC) Hello! I just wanted to thank you for your understanding of my revert of yours at that article. I entirelly understood your logic, however, with Brazilians have a particular naming customs. By living 3 decades in Portugal, I am well familiarised with Portuguese naming customs (which include all nations that have Portuguese as their primary language). I am well aware about your good intention of following that biographies should use the surname when mentioning someone, however, when the matter is about Brazilian footballers, they most often have either a commonname or a nickname. Just think about Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Denilson, Ailton, Neymar, etc. If you notece no one of them is refered allmost never by their paternal surname but rather by their commonname. Since people from Portuguese.language societies have pedominantly two names and two surnames, their fullname is long and complex, so individuals in order to make them noticeable choose a name or nickname that becomes their commonname by which they are refered to. While David Beckham should certainly be allways refered as "Beckham" in an encyclopedia, Eduardo Ferreira Abdo Pacheco becomes clearly more commonly recognisable as "Eduardo" or "Edu" rather than by "Pacheco". In his case "Eduardo" is the first name, "Ferreira Abdo" maternal surname, and "Pacheco" paternal surname. In a short version "Eduardo Pacheco" would be his name (first name plus paternal surname) which was chousen for article title, but when refering to him, his commonname of "Eduardo"/"Edu" definitelly has precedent over "Pacheco" same as "Neymar" has over "Santos Junior". This is a peculiarity that happends with Potuguese and Spanish-speaking societies sportspeople, obviously rare in other exemples where Johann Sebastian Bach is certainly refered as Bach when in context rather that "Johann" or "Johann Sebastian". I thank you for your understanding and be sure I was aware of your god-will in your edit. Kindest regards! FkpCascais (talk) 23:29, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Belvedere College un-editsDear Jessica, You un-edited a load of edits on the Belvedere College Wikipedia page. The page is quite poor, both on images of the school, its facilities but also its history, which I will leave to the school and its historians to fix. However it is particularly poor in the sections pertaining to sports and alumni, the latter being almost completely blank where it should rightly be highly populous. The latter might also be sorted out by the schools academic staff or school historians or academics. I was not a logged in user to save time. I would suggest that you read the Wikipedia entries on Rugby School, Muscular Christianity. Tom Browne's Schooldays and how Wellington said that the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton along with how the Latin phrase DULCE ET DECOMUM EST, PRO PATRIA MORI, which all so influenced the fee paying (public / private) schools of the British Isles to understand the centrality of sports in the past and indeed up to the present in such schools despite leaving the Union in the case of 3/4 of the country in a gradual but unresolved manner from 1922-1948, but also in your nearer to home great US prep schools and in the Ivy League and inter-collegiate sport in general. Central to this 18th and especially 19th century philosophy were the athletic pursuits of cricket, rugby, athletics and rowing. Essentially there are the more socially superior sports it was supposed who partoke of these leisurely gentlemanly pastimes and those inferior schools that played other sports or none at all. Schools are still ranked to this day by sporting activity, The Ivy League being a sporting league and not a league of academic excellence, the same with the top US prep schools, or in England the Lords schools or those that had or still retain the right to play an annual match at the home of cricket at Lords or whose annual match v another school or university is part of the London Social Season such as Eton v Harrow,(cricket / polo), Oxford v Cambridge (rowing / rugby / cricket / polo) or had the right to row at Henley Royal Regatta (Eton, Winchester, Beamont SJ, The Oratory) etc. I realize that you made your un-edits with great zeal and enthusiasm but I would argue in error and that pieces outlining the schools sports, its great sporting tradition and a tiny synopsis of the history of those sports at the college are essential for any reader, who isn't conversant with the schools history or place to properly attain a quick assessment of the academic institution or its place in society, sports, culture and society, both within its country and indeed internationally within a pre-ordained if semi-opaque pecking order. You do mention as reasons an overabundance of references, but these fill out the abridged picture given in my mere few sentences and are all relevant. You say that the statements aren't backed up by the references, but I would ask you to read them again in total and you will see that everything is based on them and indeed verified by them. To further check I would suggest you peruse the following books titled roughly Ireland's 100 greatest cricketers by Ger Siggens (though not entirely error free) and a book by a former Belvedere College maths teacher, now headmaster of Castleknock College on Belvederian Ireland rugby caps which, while old, contradicts your assertion of 28 Irish internationals in rugby! If people more knowledgeable in these affairs are not allowed to add to the page, then this calamitous situation will continue which may effect non-nationals or un-knowledgeable locals choice of schooling for their children. If you do have a genuine interest in Irish schools history, might I turn your attention to the almost non existent entries in Irish schools whose alumni won a Victoria Cross! As can be seen from this, Wikipedia is never accurate, but merely a work in progress as people add data to fill out lists and histories. If their edits are instantly deleted, despite being accurate, Wikipedia will never attain any semblance of accuracy in the future, which is no doubt its stated aim, to be encyclopedic, whilst at present it is but scraps of lists and texts, no more complete than our lists and texts of the classical playwrights for instance. Please take time and do research a topic before deleting edits, or perhaps leave it to experts and contain yourself to grammatical, textual and reference improvements. While my edits were rushed, minimal and concise, they were accurate and an improvement and can act as subject matter for someone who wishes to expand on them. Those with no references such as tennis, golf, sailing and yachting etc were items that I would have returned to with an accurate number of national or Leinster (provincial, one of four island of Ireland quarters, akin to state champions in the US) titles as and when those facts are published online or when the administrators of the various sports have time to check their archives (my cricket school titles numbers were only furnished to me over a number of years as amateurs still administer these organisations). Of course the college should know and should highlight these facts and they all would be contained in their annual periodical, The Belvederian, and in their papers should they deign to research it. But until then they will remain well known facts of dominance by those following the sports over a lifetime and those who took part in those sports or who were students of this college or of its small circle of opponents. I plan to replace the edits that you unedited, you are free to amend or improve them as you wish, but please be factual through historical research before you say that accurate facts are inaccurate. I might be new to editing Wikipedia and do not intend to do it too often, so am happy to be corrected on style, format etc. Many thanks for all your great effort, organisations quickly fail without the dedicated involvement of the very few, like yourself and I am forever indebted to you for your tireless dedication, Yours respectfully, Carl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:185.51.72.5#Belvedere_College_un-editing — Preceding unsigned comment added by CarlAinvire (talk • contribs) 16:29, 30 May 2018 (UTC) 9 and 9A Southgate Street, GloucesterMessage added 17:25, 5 June 2018 (UTC).

July 2019Hello Jessicapierce, I hope this is how I´m supposed to get in contact with you. I´ve seen that you have removed a lot of very useful links. I can´t help but to be mesmerized that you find useless what the Spanish Royal Academy of History has to say about the lives of the Spanish Royals. Maybe I´m misinterpreting everything and what you (Wikipedia?) would have liked me to do instead is to write a translation of "Diccionario Biografico. Real Academia de la Historia". If that is so, PLEASE put up the links again with "Biographical Dictionary. Royal Academy of History". 139.47.139.218 (talk) 11:56, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Dove Cameron articleHi Jessicapierce, this is an important message. Some user by the name of User:Stargrl has re-added trivial content or gossip content. On Dove's personal life it says "she is currently dating Thomas Doherty" and that violates BLP privacy per WP:BLPPRIVACY and WP:NOTATABLOID. I have remove trivial content and gossip on both Dove Cameron and Thomas Doherty articles. Jessica, could you watch both Dove Cameron and Thomas Doherty articles if User:Stargrl continues to re-added trivial content and warn User:Stargrl to never re-add trivial or gosssip content on both Dove Cameron and Thomas Doherty articles. If User:Stargrl continues to re-added trivial content keep on reverting the edits and User:Stargrl might violate the BLP and will lead for a possible block. Thanks for the important message. I will look forward for your reply. Remember to watch both articles to remove trivial content. Thanks and see you later. 2001:569:7C07:2600:E876:83BA:7357:8A1 (talk) 03:19, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Need some assistance on user blanking content.
I'd love a second opinion about the recent content blanking at Quillette - should it be restored? It looks perfectly legit to me. The user removing content makes (probably) good points about the sources cited, but the points being made are just descriptions of the topic, and I'm not really seeing the problem. Any input would be much appreciated, thanks. (Also, if this needs to go on a noticeboard, please let me know... I looked around but didn't find one which quite fit this situation, especially as I have not been able to contact the content-blanking user, but let me know if I'm wrong.)

Original barnstar
Need second opinion, please.
Hello, I'm not sure sure what to do about this situation. User Manavatha has a history of nonconstructive edits. If you'll check the user's recent history, you'll see more uploads of several pencil sketches which I assume are about to be posted in a lot of actresses' articles, as before. No new vandalism has occurred yet, but the issue has been explained to the user, and these uploaded images are not appropriate. However, the second issue is that Manavatha keeps blanking their talk page. This has happened numerous times and is now becoming more frequent. I see no evidence that the page has been archived, and feel it's more likely that it's being done to remove warnings. Any help on this would be appreciated. If it's better to post this at a noticeboard, just let me know which. Thank you! Jessicapierce (talk) 14:38, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
Edits are quite needed.Ofcourse in one article the whole page was fictionits true...The pages you had handled so far consists of more rumours.Thats the only reason i blanked it.The pages maintained are full of errors and different fascinating imaginations daydreams.I was just cutting wrong part .you reverting the same. I did my best removing the error part...I stopped at that day when you wrote mail over my inbox before 15 days ago to stop editing.I paused and never made any edit .. Even if you come to my own account user page,and discussing my userpage as an very big issue seems having no sense@all. I think its non.constructive.and you dont do something useful .so please stay away from my user page SO please stay away from my user account,Thank you--Manavatha (talk) 17:45, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
