Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to [e-mail], so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at [e-mail].

Thank you!

Disambiguation link notification for January 31

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Istanbul, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Europa. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:08, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Istanbul Airport into Istanbul. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 12:52, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023

Hello, I'm Tgeorgescu. I noticed that you removed topically-relevant content from Romania. However, Wikipedia is not censored. Please do not remove or censor information that directly relates to the subject of the article. If the content in question involves images, you have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide images that you may find offensive. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. tgeorgescu (talk) 21:52, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours to the page Romania has an edit summary that appears to be inadequate, inaccurate, or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. tgeorgescu (talk) 22:36, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

GDP update

Hi Mihail, the IMF update puts Somalia’s GDP PPP at an exact $2000 not $1998, see here: https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/profile/SOM — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.38.148.212 (talk) 15:33, 19 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

GDP updates

I don't know if you noticed, but your edit on the Algeria article was reverted per WP:NOTCRYSTAL. The explanation given by Mathglot in their edit summary obviously applies to all the other countries that you updated. Could you please self-revert? Thanks. M.Bitton (talk) 23:28, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you won't mind me reverting some of them because the longer they stay, the more difficult the revert will become. There are lots of them left that need to be either reverted or adjusted. Best, M.Bitton (talk) 00:12, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Hi, Mihail. Many of those edits appear to have already been reverted, but could you please look at these 60 contributions of yours spanning articles from Romania to Ukraine for possible self-reversion if you have done the same sort of edit involving projections or future estimates on any of those? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 00:15, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MIHAIL:..... Can we get you to post something here so we know that you're aware of the situation.....WP:NOTHERE has been brought up on a few other talk pages. Moxy🍁 20:28, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

October 2024

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! The Herald (Benison) (talk) 02:53, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to get help

Figured I should let you know that while notifying the admins about Thelittlefaerie, my post mentions everyone involved (including me). Here's the link: Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Incivility_and_edit-warring Wizmut (talk) 04:21, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Afghanistan edit war

Ok, so I'm not vandalizing I'm just stating the facts. I even stated out the facts that why 49.5 mil is a way better estimate on the other talk page. So can you please end on a compromise? I want to end this too. Thelittlefaerie (talk) 16:37, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Thelittlefaerie Hi Thelittlefaerie! While the talk page discussion is open, no-one should be editing the Afghanistan stats until a consensus is reached (which means it was both wrong of MIHAL to revert you, and then for you to revert back again). Thank you for trying to reschab comprimise, I hope everyone involved here can do that too! I've informed MIHAL of this as well. :) MolecularPilot ^🧪️✈️ 21:00, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Using the talk page and WP:NPA

Hi! I noticed that you recently reverted another user on List of countries and dependencies by population. Please note that there is now a talk page discussion open for that section, and all editors should cease editing it until a consensus is reached, being right is not enough to continue a revert war while this discussion is open, and there's no "wrong version" for this page to be on while the discussion occurs (I will be informing the other user of this as well). So basically no-one should be editing the Afghanistan stats untill a consensus is reached.

Additionally, please note that making personal attacks and casting WP:ASPERSIONS on other editors, as you did when you said "certain users who contribute only vandalism" is prohibited, WP:VANDALISM has a very specific meaning. I suggest you issue an apology towards that user, as they have already done for you and the other editors at WP:ANI.

Thank you. MolecularPilot ^🧪️✈️ 20:58, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks just the same, and sorry for wasting your time!. MIHAIL (talk) 00:47, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's so fine, I'm glad you've learnt above talk page discussions now and that everyone could reach a compromise - so my time was NOT wasted!!! :) MolecularPilot ^🧪️✈️ 04:24, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
