If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 04:01, 2 March 2023 (UTC) Advice please?I would like to consolidate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Merrick#Awards_and_nominations & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Merrick#Additional_notable_stage_productions, using a list of symbols to indicate which productions were nominated by whom, for what, and which won. Example: "List: "# Tony Award nominee" and "* Tony Award win, best play" "* 1958 Romanoff and Juliet (#)" It would save space, be chronologically clearer and stop being a Tony Award blurb. Cheers!

Generally, AFC/R is intended to be used by users that don't have the technical ability to create redirects themselves. I'd definitely say the redirect is valid, and if you had any concerns, it might be better to bring them up elsewhere, but AFC/R would certainly work as well. Otherwise, I'd say be WP:BOLD and go for it! Thanks! Introduction to contentious topics You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project. Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template. – dudhhr talk contribs (he/they) 19:04, 16 May 2023 (UTC) Korean cuisineThat was quick!

Rollback granted Hi Wpscatter. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:37, 7 June 2023 (UTC) Ferry revertHaha too quick! I was about to revert until it said someone else already did it. Fork99 (talk) 05:50, 12 June 2023 (UTC) June 2023
As you admit, you accused me of being biased, but since all of us are biased, that's a personal attack. Don't cast stones when you live in a glass house. You discussed me, and not the topic. You questioned my motives, and that is the type of personal attack that directly violates AGF. You implied that editors must not express their own POV, and that holding such POV makes them unsuited to edit certain topics. If we applied your reasoning to all editors, such as Jimmy Wales, who said Trump was a lunatic (and you conveniently didn't mention it was Wales, not me, who said that), we'd only have a bunch of hypocrites here who hid their own POV. It's actually a good thing that people are honest here. I welcome scrutiny of my edits. If you see my own personal POV creep into an edit, rather than me just documenting the POV of the source, then feel free to contact me and I'll happily work toward a better solution. I am far from perfect, as my user page makes clear. I discuss this there. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 14:25, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
Sock cleanupThanks for catching 3-Amino-1-propanol. It's a many-years-long LTA. DMacks (talk) 11:58, 30 June 2023 (UTC) The Middleton Family editorHi, Scatter! Regarding your recent advice (". . . you are able to do most of these things yourself") on the Help Desk to an IP editor asking for help on the Middleton Family article. You're not wrong in a general sense, but we know this user (who has an account but usually avoids using it because of past berations) from a long way back. She appears to be an elderly Australian nun who has problems with using the input device(s) she has access to, and has reached a low ceiling with understanding the technicalities of Wiki-coding etc. and spotting entry and coding errors in citations and the like. Trying to get her to develop more wiki-fu is futile. However she's good at researching sources and adding text, and makes extensive contributions on a certain range of topics (that and her prose style makes her posts readily recognisable), so we've found from experience it's easier just to make corrections and carry out minor tasks (usually both appropriate and quite straightforward) when she asks. I hope you're enjoying being involved in Wikipedia. I've been at it for around 20 years now, so there must be something about it that keeps the likes of us around! {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.197.177.243 (talk) 07:17, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
DraftsHey, you had said you were interested in polishing the Foy draft? Submitter came on #-en-help and wanted to know if there was any particular cause for delay. Just thought I'd nudge you. DS (talk) 19:04, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
I appreciate that your revert of my edit was a judgment call, and that you recognized my edit as being in good faith. However, I disagree with the logic of your revert reason. The replacement of Link's arm is not a minor game element, but is highly visible throughout the game as his Ultrahand ability, a power that originally belonged to Rauru, and is only usable by Link because his arm was replaced. The new arm itself also very noticeably has different complexion and nails like those of Rauru. And the arm replacement can be considered a hand transplantation, which can occur above or below the elbow, and whose article itself is categorized under Category:Organ transplantation. Even though the hand (or the arm) are not one organ, they are a series of organs and tissues being transplanted together. Then, in the game's ending, a more powerful use of the Recall ability restores Link's original arm from before he lost it, again reminding the player that, for the entire game, Link had been using what had originally been someone else's arm. None of this seems particularly minor or non-notable, especially compared to the inclusion criteria in other fiction-related categories like Category:Video games about impact events. I ask you reconsider your reversion. - Gilgamesh (talk) 05:21, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
Mixkit draftHi, Thanks for reviewing the draft for me. I've posted a question in the article help discussion but also reaching out to you. I'm always open to learning from others, so would appreciate a bit more feedback please. I was extremely careful to not word the article like an advertorial but maybe my idea of factual is different than yours. Please would you let me know which parts you think sound like an advert and I will remove or change them. I reviewed other stock footage library articles that were approved and structured in a similar way with similar style prose and references. Having re-read the first paragraph, I agree with you on the references and will spend the weekend fixing those up. Any help or guidance for further improvements to the article would be appreciated. I'm creating the article so that the stock footage library list page can be fixed. At the moment that has an advisory on it that it needs work as it is too US centric, so adding an Australian based library would be useful. To add Mixkit to that page, it needs its own article. Thanks in advance for your help, Amanda MandaQoP (talk) 21:55, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
Requested move discussionThere is currently a Request Move discussion about William IV. Since you participated in the previous move discussion involving William IV, I thought you might want to know about this one. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:18, 21 September 2023 (UTC) Invitation to Cornell study on Wikipedia discussionsHello Wpscatter, I’m reaching out as part of a Cornell University academic study investigating the potential for user-facing tools to help improve discussion quality within Wikipedia discussion spaces (such as talk pages, noticeboards, etc.). We chose to reach out to you because you have been highly active on various discussion pages . The study centers around a prototype tool, ConvoWizard, which is designed to warn Wikipedia editors when a discussion they are replying to is getting tense and at risk of derailing into personal attacks or incivility. More information about ConvoWizard and the study can be found at our research project page on meta-wiki. If this sounds like it might be interesting to you, you can use this link to sign up and install ConvoWizard. Of course, if you are not interested, feel free to ignore this message. If you have any questions or thoughts about the study, our team is happy to discuss! You may direct such comments to me or to my collaborator, Cristian_at_CornellNLP. Thank you for your consideration. -- Jonathan at CornellNLP (talk) 18:07, 3 October 2023 (UTC) November Articles for creation backlog driveHello Wpscatter: WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
