Fighter infoboxes
Hello, just to let you know that the 'reach' parameter in fighter infoboxes converts automatically when 'xx in' is entered. The spate of recent edits by an editor (and an IP) has caused some confusion. I'm currently going back and checking their edits that I reverted where that param. was rv'd in error. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 21:29, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
My apologies, then. I wish the original IP editor had reached out, or at least left some sort of explanation in the edit summary. There are a lot of those edits. I certainly think the ones that changed e.g. 74.5 to 74+1/2 were not an improvement, so I'd hope that's kept in mind for anyone doing such edits in the future. Thanks again.

Also, it seems like a lot of work. Is there an advantage to switching from the template (apart from making the markup easier to scan)? Willondon (talk) 00:48, 6 July 2018 (UTC).

sorry i dont know how I can message you. Can you please let me know which article has been archived?
This talk page is fine. Some of your edits are good, and some bad. I will have to respond in more detail tomorrow. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 03:20, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

Regarding this edit, how is it a "worthwhile opinion"? It's injecting comments into the middle of an older discussion in a way that causes confusion about who's responding to who (which violates WP:TPG), it sarcastically accuses everyone on Wikipedia of using it as a leftist propaganda outlet (which assumes bad faith), there's no real changes being proposed to improve the article (WP:NOTFORUM), and in context this is Wikipedia:Casting aspersions against the editor being responded to. Please consider self reverting and saving your energy for actual worthwhile opinions, instead of preserving trolling that's against policy. Grayfell (talk) 04:38, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.
Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.
I'll wait and see what you're doing. It looks you are trying to build an entire article at Global empire instead of having it redirect to List of largest empires. The preferred way to do this is to finish the work off-Wiki, perhaps in a text editor on your computer, then submit it all at once as a proposal for a full-fledged article. I also note that the text at List of largest empires already seems to cover the material you're creating, e.g. how is empire defined, definition of largest, etc. Perhaps you are re-inventing the wheel here. Carry on, but don't be surprised if an editor reverts it all back to the way it was. Willondon (talk) 04:17, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
Re: Ski Mask the Slump God
Probably an accident, but just wanted to make sure you were aware of avoiding unsourced BLP claims, especially one involving a murder. There's been a lot of IP back and forth so I've semi-protected the page. Best, SpencerT•C04:16, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
Yes, thanks for the heads up. It was an accident, and I've got it now. It was very confusing with the spate of edits. Especially with claims of death, I should have checked what the source was. Willondon (talk) 04:18, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia! Need a hand?
Hello, Willondon!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! John from Idegon (talk) 05:16, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
@John from Idegon: I'm confused. I don't think I proposed any article for creation. Most of my new pages are user talk space vandalism warnings. Let me know if this is other than a misunderstanding. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 11:28, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
Well, you could start by stating here where you got this information from? It's not necessarily that anyone doubts you, but the way Wikipedia works is that readers should be able to trace the information back to a source that leaves them confident. So where did you get the information from? Willondon (talk) 04:36, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
