Charles GonthierAn edit you made to this page a number of years ago, which remains active, included wikifying a link to Georges Gonthier, the father of Charles Gonthier. Unfortunately your link appears to actually point to Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, who was born in the 1960's and is definitely not old enough to have been the father of Charles Gonthier. May I ask that you make a suitable correction to the page if you deem it appropriate? Ordinarily this is a change I would make myself but because I know Georges Gonthier, the mathematician, personally I do not consider it appropriate for me to make this change.

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Charliesouza/Charlie SouzaA tag has been placed on your user page, User:Charliesouza/Charlie Souza, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Warning after revertHello Dearest admin, I saw you reverted on Colin Jost without warning the new user. Trying to welcome the new user, I saw his contribs and just drove-by to tell you. They may be a new editor that don't know some things here on Wikipedia. The message of revert is not enough. I hope this sets as a reminder (as I also know there are many works you have to cover). Thanks and keep doing good as you always have done! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 01:56, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Hong ChauI just reverted here edits that seem like the ones you reverted. What is the main account? Do we need to request semi-protection for Hong Chau? Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:54, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
Article for Sam FeldmanHi Paul Erik, I work for Canadian music executive Sam Feldman, and I'm trying to create a Wikipedia article for him. I see that you are part of WP:WikiProject Canadian music, and I'm hoping that you will take a look at the draft I have posted here. Would you consider moving it to main space? Thank you, Sarah for SF (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Jamie Campbell BowerI see someone is always changing the photo to a drawing one, and I was wondering if the page could be blocked to edit the page like they do for some pages? Veganpurplefox (talk) 16:50, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

He is continually adding unsourced data and not using neutral wording. For instance, his latest edit of "Sadly, the song was already out of the top 10 by it’s 9th week, and charted an underwhelming total of 12 weeks in the country" had no source/citation to confirm this, but also the wording is non-neutral/negatively slanted. I have reverted his edits (although i somehow made a hash of that, and initially somehow reverted my own reverts) and have left a note on his talk page to ask him to use the the Texas Hold Em talk page to discuss any future controversial edits. But i'm concerned, because he seems to be on a personal mission to somehow prove the song was "local" and his edits are becoming disruptive. Do you think the page needs some level of protection? There's a lot of disruptive editing and some vandalism. Thank you. Koppite1 (talk) 07:50, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Katherine RyanHi there. I notice you reverted an edit to Katherine Ryan citing WP:BLPNAME as your reason for doing so. I don't think this necessarily applies in this case, as looking at this link it says
I completely forgot that when editing on mobile, that section also gets removed. Annoying, I should have checked. Thanks for restoring the cats. Knitsey (talk) 02:21, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Controversial and non-neutral termWould you replace the phrase "racist stereotypes" in the Lady and the Tramp (1955 film) article with the less controversial and more neutral "racial stereotypes", please? 151.82.2.79 (talk) 00:39, 22 August 2024 (UTC) Administrators' newsletter – September 2024News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2024).

Ana Navarro page revisionI changed the source on the Ana Navarro edit to The Independent. The Independent reported exactly the same facts as did Fox News. The Fox News reference simply confirmed the tweet within the reference. Was your revision making Wikipedia better and more accurate?
