User talk:UpdateNerdWhy'd you revert my edit broSandwitches (talk) 12:58, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Trump WallYou put the old text back, which gives a lot of (often outdated) details, but basicly no information someone would need at first glance when entering this page. It should be a compact overview. You said I should discuss it first, but you yourself didn't write anything is the "talk" section to explain your view. Do you think the text as it is now, is better than my text? Sorry if you felt insulted if the text was yours, but this is not a readable information any user would need at first glance. It might be usefull when you dig more into the history. I hope not, but there also might be a political motivation, since the text as it is now gives the impression it is a total faillure, while when focussing on the most important facts, especially number of miles built, the picture gets different.

Semi-protected edit request for Abraham LincolnSome sources I found that could be added for the "assassination" section on the Abraham Lincoln page. These have mentioned by some respected sources, and even a few historians. “As he died his breathing grew quieter, his face more calm.[1] According to some accounts, at his last drawn breath, on the morning after the assassination, he smiled broadly and then expired.[2][3][4][5][6] Historians, most notably author Lee Davis have emphasized Lincoln's peaceful appearance when and after he died: "It was the first time in four years, probably, that a peaceful expression crossed his face."[7] Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Lincoln Administration, Maunsell Bradhurst Field wrote, "I had never seen upon the President's face an expression more genial and pleasing."[8][9] The President’s secretary, John Hay, saw "a look of unspeakable peace came upon his worn features".[10] References
Alta California mergerHi UpdateNerd, I just wanted to say there was no need to list the above merger at WP:PM as being "done" if you were going to do it yourself anyway: the page is for people who are unsure how to tag and perform the merger themselves, and are asking for help in doing it. In any case, there was no point in tagging it for a proposed merger if you were going to carry it out yourself anyway a few hours later, as you did – either do the merger boldly straight away and see if someone reverts it, in which case follow WP:BRD: or tag the pages and wait a week or two to see if anybody contributes to the discussion. You also shouldn't have deleted the page, but redirected it to the page of the merged article: an admin has corrected your mistake, so don't worry about this now... just wanted to let you know for next time.

The CIA investigates things, that's their job -- they are not historians or scientific experts, nor, in fact, did they report any truth to the claim. I've warned you before that if you continue to try to water down Conspiracy theories about Adolf Hitler's death to make the theories look more acceptable than they are, you would be reported at AN/I and a topic ban sought to prevent you from editing the article.

Semi-protected edit request for Abraham LincolnIn the "assassination" section on the Abraham Lincoln page, can you change the words “According to eyewitnesses, he face was fixed in a smile when he expired” to “According to some accounts, at his last drawn breath, on the morning after the assassination, he smiled broadly and then expired”? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.67.65.40 (talk) 15:19, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

While edits are welcome that are helpful, you seem to be becoming obsessed with changing and making additions to this GA rated article. Since you have not worked on bringing an article up to GA before, let me tell you that this article has been well vetted and the words used, sentence structure, paragraph placements have been poured over as to detail and consensus of the WP:RS sources; also as to grammar and frankly agreement of the editors. Some of your edits/additions have been fine, but you are now making wholesale changes and moving paragraphs around. This is becoming disruptive. If this continues the article could lose its GA rating. Therefore, you may be reverted, especially when you do not have agreement/consensus for said changes and additions. Especially, an article such as this, we do not want to add speculation and non-verified conjecture or something merely reported by some unknown and unnamed person.

Re: Tantive IVPer WP:PRIMARY, Your continuing effort to WP:OWN this article by making frequent small changes to the content, and then reverting anyone who changes what you do is getting to be quite annoying. I suggest that you back off, unless you relish being brought to ANI for your behavior. Instead of reverting, discuss your objections on the talk page, and stop making many frequent tiny changes -- you are not the only editor of this article, nor are you the final arbiter of what goes into it. Please read and understand WP:OWN and adjust your behavior accordingly. Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:52, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
I love the work you have done with the Star Wars franchise, with the neat organization that correlates to the franchise and not the finer details for the individual pages. As such, I wanted to approach you, as I could use some serious help with the Alien franchise page. The whole page is a mess, with content from a separate crossover franchise - AvP - spilling over and all sorts of garbled nonsense everywhere.

Edit war warning Your recent editing history at Barack Obama citizenship conspiracy theories shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You shouldn't be making such changes (as you did to Joe Biden & Mike Pence), until you get a consensus to do so, across all US prez & vice prez bio articles. GoodDay (talk) 21:32, 21 December 2018 (UTC) HeyI don't know if you'd noticed, but I've undone most of your changes to lede of Pyramid of Unas. The boat pits are definitely there, "but whether they actually held wooden boats like that of Khufu or were just symbolic is debatable." From Clayton 1994, p. 63. Some sources, like Grimal 1992, p. 123, argue that the limestone pits are the boats without wooden barques, while others argue that it's likely they did contain wooden barques, like Verner 2001d pp. 337-338. These different interpretations are the source of the speculative writing. For future reference, the lede should generally not contain citations, though I always add one plus a footnote for the dating since it's not worth restating in the body of the article. Hope that clarifies the revert (I kept your change of tense, since the pits haven't grown legs and walked away). Do check the body of the article, which should contain a sourced statement and all relevant citations next to it. Mr rnddude (talk) 09:01, 15 December 2018 (UTC) Process, not contentRe [2], I don't think it helps the situation to legitimize the misguided notion that we need to rehash the guideline at article level. I reiterate this. ―Mandruss ☎ 07:18, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
It's a bit to wade through, and this will consequently be kind of long, since it involves various different kinds of community strategy things: First, arguing whether "president" or "President" is proper English is not how to go about this. There is no official standards-issuing body for our language (unlike in French and Spanish, though those bodies are actually somewhat ignored anyway). See Prescriptive grammar and Linguistic description. It's a matter of how English, on average, is written in high-quality, contemporary materials, and what the preponderance of modern English-language style guides say to do. Those are the primary factors on which our own style guide is based. The trend since at least the late 1980s has been away from "auto-capitalizing" these (or any other) job titles, and only capitalizing them when directly attached to names. Second, we don't need to have another RfC after we had an RfC pretty recently, and previous consensus discussion before that, in multiple venues, which even specifically included the US president. Re-re-re-RfCing this stuff is just WP:FORUMSHOPPING at worst, and tedious rehash at best (sometimes taken for tendentious). As in all style matters, it's simply impossible to please everyone (the important point is that editorial conflict about that particular peccadillo come to an end – you don't have to like WP's rules, but do follow them here). So, yes, we should not be re-fighting this out article by article. The entire reason we have WP:AT policy and the WP:MOS guidelines is stop that behavior. These pages evolved because of the disruptive time-sink of editors recycling the same arguments in perennial "style wars" over and over and over again. It drains editorial productivity, strains editorial relations and collaboration, and produces confusingly inconsistent output. WP:IAR is only ever accepted by the community as a valid rationale when the reasons for a divergence are obvious common-sense matters and the rule is clearly faulty for a particular case, not because someone doesn't like the rule and wished it didn't apply to "their" page. Mandruss is correct that the burden of proof is firmly on the shoulders of someone alleging that an actual WP guideline somehow doesn't have consensus. The community almost never buys that argument. If someone insists on re-RfCing this, I would suggest that the proper venue is WT:MOSBIO, "advertised" at WP:VPPRO and WP:VPPOL. Otherwise, use WP:VPPRO itself, since this would in fact be a proposal, to change extant guidelines away from a consensus that was arrived at through RfCs and reaffirmed in later ones. Expect to have to prove your case, and to be contradicted by people who own and can cite pretty much every style guide ever published for the English language, and who have a lot of experience using tools like Google Ngrams correctly (and pointing out where failure to account for the tools' limitations produces statistically invalid results). It's "uphill, both ways", so it will probably be a futile waste of energy. Especially given that the first rule of MOS:CAPS is do not apply capitals where reliable sources do not consistently do so, and we know beyond any doubt that RS do not consistently capitalize "president" in the US political context. It's already a lost cause. Keep in mind also (with regard to this and anything like it) that the community is tired of "style wars" and increasingly disinclined to listen to demands for special exceptionalism. Every time someone launches a "gimme my special style because I say so" RfC (especially at VPPOL itself), it poisons editorial patience for more vexing style matters that really do need a consensus discussion (not a re-re-re-discussion of a matter that's already been consistently settled in one direction). See for example the low turnout here; I expected roughly 4× as many respondents, especially given how widely this RfC was advertised both on P&G talk pages and wikiproject ones, and that it would affect over 1000 articles. People's eyes just glaze over: "Yet another F'ing capitalization squabble. <yawn>". What I would do with this [p|P]resident stuff is just leave it alone. We already have a consensus arrived at via RfC. It will take time to percolate through articles and through editors' heads, and if it takes two years or five to clean it all up via WP:RM, including some temporary reversals at this article or that one, then so be it. Many things are like this; it really doesn't matter (WP:NODEADLINE). Any WP:STONEWALL behavior by a handful of "resist or die" types cannot last forever. If it actually turns out that the MoS or naming conventions guidelines on a point like this really don't reflect consensus any longer (WP:CCC), this will become clear if several years of RM discussion consistently go against what the guidelines say to do. (That possibility is why I opened the above-linked VPPOL RfC about breeds, but that brings us full circle to the point that turnout is so low, any result will have dubious real consensus value.) In closing, I would offer the following: I entirely understand the feeling that parts of the MoS are "wrong" and the desire to change it. I arrived here with same feeling. There are at least 50 things in MoS I would have written very differently. However, I've become one of MoS's top five (probably top two) shepherds against willy-nilly changes, because I quickly realized that the value of such guidelines is in their stability not in the exact wording of their line items. Style issues in particular are mostly arbitrary. It matters more that editors follow a set of rules instead of fighting all the time over trivia.
ObservationThe biggest resistance to de-capitalizing in bio articles, appears to be at articles of American federal government officials (US presidents, US vice presidents, secretaries of State, secretaries of Treasury, CIA directors, Supreme Court members, US senators, US representatives, etc etc), but not at bios of state-level only officials (i.e governors, lieutenant governors, state attorneys general, state senators etc etc), which some are capitalized, but others aren't, from what I can tell.

You've improperly uploaded some copyrighted image to Wikimedia Commons without permission of copyright holder, however. I've removed them for the related articles and tagged them for deletion, but wanted to explain to you what you did incorrectly. Commons is only for free images, meaning those in the public domain based on their age or location of origin; images you have created yourself for which you own the copyright and are granting unrestricted permission for their use on any Wikimedia site; or images by someone else for which the copyright holder has granted unrestricted permissions. Images like File:Darth Vader's advanced TIE fighter.png are not owned by you, so you cannot upload them to Commons. Also, know that making a scan or a screenshot does not make you the copyright holder (you don't seem to have done this, I'm just letting you know). Photographs like File:Captain Phasma costume.jpg are acceptable for Commons if they are taken by you with your camera and you are releasing all rights. Non-free images can be uploaded to regular Wikipedia space as "fair use", under specific conditions (see Wikipedia:Non-free content for the full guideline). Basically, a copyrighted image like File:Princess Leia's characteristic hairstyle.jpg is acceptable in Princess Leia because it is the primary means of illustrating the subject of the article, as explained in the required fair use rationale on the image page. This image would not be acceptable in Carrie Fisher because non-free images generally cannot be used in biographical articles (an exception being if the person is deceased and there are no readily-available free images of them, as with Margaret Whitton). It would also not be appropriate to place the Leia image in every Star wars article; each article should use non-free images sparingly, restricting them to title cards and significant elements that help understanding of the topic. Thanks.— TAnthonyTalk 18:09, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
Star Wars TrilogyHi UpdateNerd, I added (OT) to Star Wars Trilogy because it had been added to OT (not by me) and I was trying to clean up the DAB page. All entries on acronym DAB pages should include the acronym in the target article. Before I removed entries, I do a Google search to see if it is commonly used, and it seemed that many sites use OT for original trilogy, so I added it. However, I'm not very familiar with the culture of Star Wars and have no objection to it being removed. If this really isn't a reasonable acronym, I'll remove it from OT as well.

Your edits on Christopher ColumbusUpdateNerd, do you have comprehension issues? First of all, in relation to your first edit, unless you cannot read the sentence, the sentence did not imply that he was any of the professions ascribed to him before his voyages to the New World. Additionally, he was neither a colonist, nor an explorer, before his four voyages. Secondly, since when does the word "colonist" imply being a governor? Really, all of the mariners on Columbus's voyages were all governors? Interesting concept... Actually, the term governor being more specific and more encompassing as a higher rank, would supercede a colonist who is simply a participant in a human colony (your argument is: "colonist' already an umbrella term which includes his governorship")...Do you just make changes for the sake of things?

Star Trek and Star Wars listsWhen trying to research a response on the Star Trek list page, I looked into what Star Wars did on the same topic. It would seem the lists as created are similar. However, I also see that the changes to these lists/articles have been quite recent and that you have played a large role in both of the changes. I don't believe that either the List of Star Trek films and television series nor the List of Star Wars films and television series as written actually should be classified as lists. I believe lists for both topics are appropriate, but the majority of the prose on the pages should be spun off into separate articles. I don't want you to take this personally. I have been in situations where I have but a lot of work into certain articles on wikipedia and I don't like people seemingly undoing everything (though I dont think I am advocating this). While I don't believe that you have reached a true concensus on the Star Trek page, I do see that the Star Wars list is a product of a lot of discussion. Because this is a discussion on now lists should be styled in general, I have posted discussion on the Wikiproject Lists. I would appreciate if you could contribute to the discussion.

CopyrightYour understanding of copyright is flawed. There was never any requirement for a 1950 copyright to be renewed, because they never had time to expire. They were all extended automatically in January 1978, and again 20 years later. I would've preferred to remove your pointless duplicate image from the Fred Trump article based on the pointlessness of it being a duplicate, but then I noticed that you'd lied about the copyright notice. That's a really bad idea. Just because other web sites don't care doesn't mean Wikipedia doesn't. The Foundation is vary careful about it, because WP is just a juicy target for litigation.

Star Wars: The Rise of the Compound ModifierHey there! I just wanted to apologise for that borderline edit war I almost had with you over the Star Wars films being described as "epic space opera films" versus "epic space-opera films". I was trying to decide which talk page I should start a discussion about it on, since the same situation was happening on every Star Wars film article (you forgot to initially revert my edits to Rogue One and Solo: A Star Wars Story though, haha). That's when I came across the Talk:Star Wars#"American epic space opera franchise" vs "American epic space-opera franchise" discussion. I changed my mind about the hyphenation after reading Aikclaes' point that "too many [linked] attributive adjectives makes it hard to decipher without the hyphen". MOS:LINKCLARITY is a relevant guideline to look at. It's kind of funny actually, since I've edited the article for Alien (film) to say that it's a "science-fiction horror film" before, and yet it always returns to being called a "science fiction horror film". –Matthew - (talk) 23:44, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Edit war on Star WarsYour recent editing history at Star Wars shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

No increase in primary US-Mexico border barrier length under Trump administration yetI noted your recent changes about the border wall construction, and wanted to mention some information I found: Before Trump became president, 654 miles of the nearly 2,000-mile U.S. Mexico border had primary barriers. As of today, that hasn’t increased. To date, the administration has replaced about 60 miles of dilapidated barriers with new fencing. Some officials including CBP have presented this as an extension of the total barrier, but this is factually incorrect. There have been some misleading statements by officials and others which seem to suggest that this is actually an extension and not a replacement, so it is understandable why you added this. Please make sure to include citations to reliable sources in additions like this in the future. I'm sure that there will be an actual increase at some point, so the issue may need to be revisited with citations soon.

Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:32, 14 September 2019 (UTC) Mass change to personal preferenceRe: [4] Our MoS says that an article may use either spaced ndash or unspaced mdash, provided it does so consistently. That article used spaced ndash consistently, and a certain amount of effort has gone into achieving and maintaining that consistency. Guidance also says that, when MoS allows multiple ways of doing something, editors should not mass change an article to suit their personal preference. Unfortunately that edit slipped through the cracks, it's too late to simply undo it, and I'm not going to ask that you reverse the changes (especially since you would probably refuse to do so anyway).

You edited it so that now it reads: "Kurtz has corroborated that they had originally considered using a higher episode number for the original film to emulate the chapter numbering used in the Flash Gordon serial." But the Flash Gordon serial had nothing to do with their decision to use a higher episode number for the first Star Wars movie. The Flash Gordon serial started with episode 1. It was only relevant to their decision to include an episode number, not to the episode number they chose. - 2603:9000:E40B:7500:ECDD:7477:6678:4D25 (talk) 22:50, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.

Uncited information cannot be in the article. Non-canon material cannot be in the article, as it is both outside the regular continuity of the character's existence (in-universe) and is considered - as non-canon - as trivial. The point of cooperative editing is that when differences of opinion arise, we use the talk page to sort out a solution or, failing that, to build a consensus. I have presented solid reasoning as to why the material needs to be noted as non-canon, and have initiated discussion in the article talk page, as per protocol and civility.

Fred Trump's gift of building to charity associated with cerebral palsyI am trying to understand an edit summary you wrote when reverting/altering a contribution. You wrote "nothing, not even the deed, uses the same name as 1999 NYT obituary." Is the name you're referring to "Cerebral Palsy Foundation of New York and New Jersey"? If so, there is no confusion about which building was given (there was just one) or who owned it (Fred) but what to call the recipient. There is not and never was such a thing as the "Cerebral Palsy Foundation of New York and New Jersey." From what I can glean, the "United Cerebral Palsy" [UCP], founded in 1949, has spawned a confusing array of charities. One of these, formed in 1955, with more or less separate governance, was the "United Cerebral Palsy Research and Education Foundation" [UCPREF]. This was the recipient of the gift. In 1982, the NYT reported on the gift of one of the "Trump Organization's apartment buildings" to UCPREF: "[Donald] Trump, who is on the board of United Cerebral Palsy's Research and Education Foundation, needed no more prompting. 'I decided then and there,' he said, 'to make a gift of the building.' On Wednesday the transfer was completed and yesterday officials of the charitable foundation said it represented the largest single gift ever made to the 33-year-old organization." Here, the NYT played into the naming confusion, but clearly the gift was to the "foundation," UCPREF. Buzzfeed's reporting is consistent with this: "The deed lists 'Fred C. Trump and Mary Trump' as the donors of building. The building, donated to United Cerebral Palsy's Research and Education Foundation in 1982, had a reported value of $4.75 million. BuzzFeed News obtained the deed for the building by matching housing records with media reports about the donation." Buzzfeed notes "longtime Queens Rep. Gary Ackerman also credited Fred Trump in a speech on the House floor in 1989." Here is the relevant portion of the Congressional Record, where he associates the gift with UCP (https://www.congress.gov/101/crecb/1989/11/21/GPO-CRECB-1989-pt22-1-3.pdf): "Fred C. Trump, the patriarch of the Trump Organization, the famed New York real estate company, is active on the board of directors of Jamaica Hospital and the Kew-Forest School. His major philanthropic gifts include a nursing pavilion to the Jamaica Hospital, an apartment building for United Cerebral Palsy, and a synagogue to a Brooklyn community. He is the recipient of innumerable awards and honors from major religious groups and charitable organizations." In any event, the NYT obituary was wrong to refer to the "Cerebral Palsy Foundation of New York and New Jersey." This entity appears nowhere else in ProQuest or Lexis/Nexis. All internet mentions also trace directly to the mistaken NYT obituary. The "Cerebral Palsy Foundation" [CPF] traces its history to UCP via UCPREF (See https://www.yourcpf.org/history/). UCP has local affiliates (eg, New York and New Jersey) but CPF does not. Nor is CPF a simple renaming of UCPREF. Yet another charity, "Cerebral Palsy International Research Foundation," claims that distinction (see https://cpfamilynetwork.org/resources/resources-guide/cerebral-palsy-international-research-foundation/). If we want to be fastidious, I propose we correct the name of the charity to "United Cerebral Palsy Research and Education Foundation," citing Buzzfeed and 1982 NYT article. As to whether Donald took credit, clearly he did so in the 1982 article. In 1984, the NYT gave him credit again: "Ivana Trump, her husband's business partner and decorator for his projects, has long been associated with United Cerebral Palsy, running its annual gambling night and raising thousands of dollars. When the agency needed offices, the Trumps donated a building said to be worth $4 million." In the 1987 Donahue interview, Donald clearly took credit again. Shall we say "repeatedly took credit" or simply "took credit" rather than "frequently"?
Joseph Campbell - Adelle Davis/Idell HenningFirst, thank you for cleaning up my cursory edit concerning how Joseph Campbell met John Steinbeck and his wife, Carol. I had never edited a Wikipedia page before and thought one had to have an account, but when I clicked on "Edit", it let me. So I tried not to screw anything up. :-) So, thanks again! Second, I've done some further research and you may (if you wish) further correct the entry by doing away with any mention of an alternate account of how Campbell was introduced to the Steinbecks. There really is no alternate account. I suspect the original author of the Wikipedia article somehow got Adelle and Idell confused. I first learned about the Campbell/Steinbeck interaction from William Souder's new biography of Steinbeck (which you cited correctly). Intrigued, being both a Steinbeck and Campbell fan, I had to look up Campbell on Wikipedia and saw what looked like an error in how Campbell was introduced to John and Carol - hence "an alternate account". Page 120 of Souder's biography clearly states that it was Carol's sister, Idell, who introduced them. Looking further into this, Souder's notes for page 120 includes a reference to an interview in 1983 between Campbell and Pauline Pearson. He also references the Larsen & Larsen biography of Campbell, p. 165. So, I checked out the Larsen & Larsen Campbell biography from our library and found on p. 165 this quote attributed to Campbell: "Her sister [referring to Idell's sister, Carol] had married a chap who wanted to write, and I was wanting to write, and we might enjoy each other. So she brought me down and introduced me to Carol and John Steinbeck at their place in Pacific Grove." The quote had a footnote which Larsen & Larsen state is a quote (among a number of others) taken from transcripts of an interview with Campbell conducted by Pauline Pearson of the Salinas [CA] Public Library. I think Campbell's own words makes it pretty clear who introduced him to the Steinbeck's. Although Campbell and Adelle Davis did continue to have interactions with each other. And Adelle did visit Campbell while he was living near the Steinbeck's - possibly further confusing the original Wikipedia article's author. Thanks again! - Larry (lnelson@illinois.edu) And now I guess I need to enter 4 tildes (whatever that does). 2601:240:8480:5AE0:9421:EDBE:352A:7869 (talk) 20:20, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

It is your job to make Wikipedia accurate and true. It is not your job to let little motes of BS continue to live on it. I'll put the dots closer together. Columbus wrote down some completely, totally unjustified comment about the earth being pear shaped. Totally off the wall for his knowledge at the time, total BS Some guy writing a modern book comes across this writing and says "Hey, look, Columbus was a smart cookie, back in 1492 with no equipment he reported an observation that the earth is pear-shaped" Coincidentally, it is, at a ppm level that could not be detected until the 20th century. Some other . . . . person . . . . cites this wacko information in a Wikipedia article I point out that the original information is flawed(since it is), then I'm told I have to prove the erroneous, BS, stupid citation as wrong.

(2020) [1977]. Northwest Trees: Identifying & Understanding the Region's Native Trees. Mountaineers Books. pp. 193–196.) It's not available online but, if you have a copy, would you mind letting me know whether it has genuine evidence of this, in your opinion? I've never come across any convincing reference to willow being a painkiller before the invention of aspirin. Thank you E Wusk (talk) 08:58, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Minor pointHi UpdateNerd, I hope you're doing well in these perilous times (all times are perilous;-). I meant to ask you about this earlier, but I've been busy with a real-world project. I'm puzzled by this edit, where your summary says "clarifying poor pagination to avoid any future wild-goose chase". You wrote "(5)" after the parameter value page=xxxix with "!-- part of preface numbering --" in a hidden note. I don't get it, because "xxxix" is how you write the number "39" in Roman numerals; "x" = 10 and "ix" = 9, so three x's and one ix added together is 39, not 5. It's very common to paginate the pages in book prefaces that way. Regards, Carlstak (talk) 20:11, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Cleaning up the trees
Christopher ColumbusHello UpdateNerd, It seems that we are in a sort of edit war about Columbus' second wife Beatriz Enriquez de Arana. Your first revert was all well and good, you provided a source that you believed refuted my claim that she was his second wife. But your second revert was just because I made a mistake in explaining myself in my edit summary. I do not believe that that is a just reason to revert the changes I have made, especially when I have provided numerous sources to show that she was in fact Columbus' wife after the death of his first. I even included a primary source of Columbus himself referring to her as his wife. I intend to revert the changes you have made but first I would just like to ask for your side of things and hope you can provide me with sources that can disprove my own. The sources that dealt with Beatriz Enriquez' relationship with Columbus that were on this page before I edited it were 1. The OPINION of the author with no primary sources in the case of Davidson, 2. Wildly misrepresenting the authors views and having no reason to be included (in the case of J.J. Barry whose biography on Columbus I have read where he makes a strong case that she was his second wife -- not his mistress) 3. Secondary sources simply stating she was his mistress with no explanation as to why that position was taken. My references, as I have explained, deal with the controversy explicitly, are primary sources (from Columbus himself) or are secondary sources as with Herrera (who was a contemporary of Ferdinand Columbus). For these reasons I believe my changes are correct. It may be worthwhile to explain that there is a controversy in the page itself, so people can research further, rather than just stating Beatriz was or was not his wife authoritatively. I hope for your response, thank you. P.S. this is my first time using the talk page so I hope I did this correctly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crayolcold (talk • contribs) 17:31, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
KempkaIn the article, The Death of Adolf Hitler, it stated, "Both Kempka and Musmanno wrote that Hitler shot himself through the mouth and that SS physician Ludwig Stumpfegger inspected the body. Cited to Joachimsthaler, 2000, p. 165 and Musmanno, 1950, p. 219. Joachimsthaler on that page does not state that, and Kempka does not write that in his autobiography. So what does Musmanno write specifically? When you put it back in you wrote, "...mentioning Kempka again because he appears to be Musmanno's source on this." That is vague and ambiguous. If he is clearly the source, per Musmanno, okay, but if it is vague or not clear, it needs to be removed, accordingly. Thanks, Kierzek (talk) 22:47, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
UpdateNerd: Since you wrote this content and apparently have the book, I would ask that you (copy edit) tweak the wording of these two sections. The one states:
"Bezymenski's book begins with a 66-page overview of the Battle of Berlin and its aftermath..."
"Bezymenski opens his book with a reflection on the weight given to Hitler's death..." This may be confusing to the general reader. Also, remember it is always good to make edits for concision, when possible, as we want article's to be easily readable (and not take a long time to load) for the general audience for which we write, especially on mobile devices. See WP:NOTEVERYTHING. Thanks, Kierzek (talk) 17:55, 12 May 2022 (UTC) Recent edit reversionIn this edit here, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy. I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask. I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate. S Philbrick(Talk) 15:41, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
Kempka article quote, long uncitedI could not find a RS cite for these sentences (and comment): At the Nuremberg trials, Kempka was called to testify in relation to the last time he saw Bormann. He later referred to Eva Braun as "the unhappiest woman in Germany". If you can find a good RS cite for it, either let me know and I will re-add or just re-add these sentences with the cite. Thanks, Kierzek (talk) 01:21, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
Spelling out metre/meterHi, a sure source of future edit warring is to spell the dimension as "metre" rather than "meter" in a US-related article. Experience suggests that for commonality and to avoid disputes, it's better to abbreviate mm, cm, m, etc. Peter coxhead (talk) 19:35, 24 June 2022 (UTC) @Peter coxhead: Thanks, I'll look out for that on US-dominant articles. (I wish it could be more automated as UK-spelling is the default of the convert template, and I think leaving the first instance spelled out has benefits.) UpdateNerd (talk) 04:46, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Lev Bezymenski states, per cite..."In 1960, Günsche said both were on chairs." To whom did he reportedly make this statement and where was it reported? I have not found it anywhere else and, as you know, one cannot take what Bezymenski wrote in his Soviet propaganda book at face valve. Thanks, Kierzek (talk) 19:34, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
I did some ce work and edits for concision to this article as we agreed that this article should only be about the book in question (and the critique, criticism of same); not live or redundant events. Those are better suited for the newer article you did discussing Contrary reports about Adolf Hitler's death. Otherwise, there is a content fork problem and so much detail as to the preceding events is not relevant. As for the subsequent article mentioned, there is too much detail of Bezymenski's book therein that is redundant and covered in the book article. Again, this second article should cover main points (and criticism) of the book with a link to its article page. But, for now, I leave it to you to make edits on that for concision as I have to go. Kierzek (talk) 02:17, 31 August 2022 (UTC) @Kierzek: Yep, basically agree. Thanks for the good-faith attempt to see eye-to-eye & for your contributions.

It should only be giving factual context and detail. That's the bare minimum. Anything less than that isn't really correct and feeds into the false narratives surrounding George Lucas and beyond. It sets a dangerous path. We should update it accordingly and let others see what he actually said instead of censoring the truth behind select words from his statement.

I actually am not familiar with the topic and have been inserting bits and pieces and copy pasting stuff in there. Was very confused about the blockade; only recently learned there was a 2005 blockade and then in 2007 like you put in your recent edit. I feel very confused about the history of all this conflict; the impression that I get off Wikipedia is that the Palestinian Territories repeatedly engage in suicide bombings and attacks on Israel which leads Israel to become increasingly militant and cold hearted towards Palestinians, but I will admit I also don’t know anything about the Israeli occupation.

Character appearancesHey, I've got a question for you. It takes awhile to explain, so I apologize for the length. There's no rush on this, but if you're able to ponder this at some point I would really appreciate it. I've been editing Star Wars character articles. Before I started editing, the pages had an Appearances section, which listed all the places the character has shown up. There was a sub-section, called Legends, Legends Works or Legends Media, which listed the appearances that are in the SW Legends narrative universe, which is separate from the official canon. Since I can't use proper header text in this post to illustrate, I will direct you to Lando Calrissian for an example of the original formatting. Here is the Appearances heading, and here is the Legends sub-heading. My problem with this formatting is that it doesn't inform the reader what kind of appearances the non-Legends appearances are. They happen to be the official canon, but this is not usually clear. I changed the formatting on some pages, such as Padmé Amidala. Here is the Appearances heading, and here is the Legends heading. The only change is that the Legends section became its own section and not a sub-section, and the words "official canon" were added to the first heading to explain what those appearances are. Another editor, TAnthony, has expressed that canonicity should not be a focus on these character pages. He believes the appearances should not be separated into canon and Legends categories. I understand his view, and I believe it may be beneficial to reduce the focus on canonicity on some of these pages. But in the meantime, we need headers that are descriptive and clear. TAnthony edited some of the pages that used my formatting, and now they look like Luke Skywalker. Here is the Appearances heading and here is the Legends heading. His version is basically a hybrid of the old formatting and my formatting. I think it has the same problem as the original formatting, in that it doesn't tell the reader that the first list of appearances are canon. Which formatting do you think is best? For simplicity I'll post the three examples here: Lando Calrissian (original), Padmé Amidala (my version), Luke Skywalker (hybrid). I'm also open to a completely different version, if you have ideas. Thanks! Wafflewombat (talk) 05:44, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
