A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
For actually resolving the issue on a maintenance template I placed. Rewriting is really hard, much moreso than mindlessly deleting problematic content. Thank you. Mach61 (talk) 23:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
@Mach61, thanks very much for the kind message. Wracking talk! 20:18, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

WP:HOCKEY

Howdy. Though we disagree on a certain topic, concerning ice hockey. Just wanted to let you know, I'm grateful that you haven't tried forcing the changes you want, via the editing route. About a year or two ago, an editor (via edit-warring) tried to replace the Soviet Union as a birthplace in many hockey player bios, under the argument that Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania were 'never' a part of the USSR. GoodDay (talk) 22:58, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for reaching out. I hope you find it genuine when I say I operate in good faith and do not intend to be disruptive. Best, Wracking talk! 23:03, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Policy 713

Hello Wracking, I recently added a new section to the Policy 713 article based on pretty relevant information that hadn't been added yet, as well as made some expansions upon the article itself. Would you like to give your opinion on it? Thanks. B3251 (talk) 13:46, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

@B3251: Yes, I'll take a look soon (in the next few days). I'll also respond to any other comments you left on the talk page re:my notes. Thanks for reaching out! Wracking talk! 17:16, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Copy-edit to Westminster Abbey

Hi Wracking, are you still working on this article? You haven't edited it since 15 January. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 05:33, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

@Baffle gab1978, yes I am! Thanks for checking. IRL stuff got a bit crazy! Wracking talk! 00:02, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
That's what I thought; no problem. :) Cheers, Baffle☿gab 01:12, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

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. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 09:53, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Fix a random page lacking sources

Quick question about Yonkers, New York

Do you think I should remove the [relevant] tag from the sentence regarding how Yonkers is considered a City of Seven Hills. I did change the source but I’m not sure if I should remove the [relevant] tag or the sentence itself. The Cadillac Ranger (talk) 02:56, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

@The Cadillac Ranger, good question! I think the [relevant] tag is no longer needed but a supplementary source may be needed (the source establishes use of the term, but not its origin). The City of Seven Hills moniker should be mentioned outside of the lead as well (perhaps in the geography section?; MOS:LEADNOTUNIQUE) Wracking talk! 03:42, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

NHL 4 Nations Face-off

Hi there, I was wondering when this draft would go to release. Obviously not right now, but I figure either once formal venues are chosen or when rosters are complete. Conyo14 (talk) 05:52, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Conyo14: It should be fine to publish whenever per WP:FUTURE. (I wouldn't be upset if people want to hold off until it's more firm, but I think it's a helpful summary of what's been verified so far.)
If we go the "publish whenever" route — I think it's fairly close to being ready for mainspace (after addressing the bolded notes I've left, or anything else I/others think of). I haven't exactly been rushing to finish, so no idea on timeline (feel free to jump in if you'd like). Wracking talk! 06:04, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Lebow page

Lebow is suggesting legal action. I say it is hardly worth keeping the Rabinovich material at this point since this is only one relatively minor portion of a fairly detailed biography. It is just not worth it. Algyx0262 (talk) 21:34, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

@Algyx0262: Please discuss this at Talk:Bennett S. LeBow, not on my talk page. If anyone is suggesting legal action, please report it immediately per WP:LEGAL. Thanks, Wracking talk! 21:39, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
Not sure where to report it. Someone on the Jlebow thread of the talk page for Lebow mentioned a letter from his lawyer, and it is unclear the reason why they would be sending it Algyx0262 (talk) 22:00, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

Editor experience invitation

Hi Wracking :) I'm looking for experienced editors to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 00:57, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Request for copy editing Awesome TV, TVRI (TV channel), IndiHome, TVRI Sport, RCTI, SCTV (TV network), MNCTV, ANTV, Indosiar, BTV (Indonesian TV channel), Metro TV (Indonesian TV network), Trans TV, Trans7, tvOne (Indonesian TV network), GTV (Indonesian TV network), iNews, Moji (TV network), NET (Indonesian TV network), RTV (Indonesian TV network), VTV (Indonesia), Kompas TV, CNN Indonesia, Nusantara TV, CNBC Indonesia, TV Alhijrah and First Media (Indonesian media company)

Hello, Mr. @Fandi89, Mr. @Pratama26 and Mr. @Wracking... Can you copy editing article pages Awesome TV, TVRI (TV channel), IndiHome, TVRI Sport, RCTI, SCTV (TV network), MNCTV, ANTV, Indosiar, BTV (Indonesian TV channel), Metro TV (Indonesian TV network), Trans TV, Trans7, tvOne (Indonesian TV network), GTV (Indonesian TV network), iNews, Moji (TV network), NET (Indonesian TV network), RTV (Indonesian TV network), VTV (Indonesia), Kompas TV, CNN Indonesia, Nusantara TV, CNBC Indonesia, TV Alhijrah and First Media (Indonesian media company), please....???

Only warning

A message starting "This is your only warning..." is supposed to mean precisely that: it is the only warning to the editor; it doesn't make sense to give it to someone who has already received three warnings. JBW (talk) 19:23, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I should've used "final warning"—that was my error and thanks for the note. (Also, that header gave me a scare...) Wracking talk! 19:27, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

2024 NHL entry draft

I can appreciate the effort of the edits that you made, but what you did makes the article substantially worse to edit and it will create more problems than it's worth so it was removed. Deadman137 (talk) 03:17, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

@Deadman137, thanks for the note. I've started a section at Talk:2024 NHL entry draft with what I believe is a better solution. Wracking talk! 17:35, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Removal of copy edit tags

I have reverted your removals of the copy edit tags on Magic (Jolin Tsai album), Lucky Number (album), and Love Exercise as the issues have not been fixed. The prose quality on those articles are still rather poor in terms of Wikipedia standards (many grammatical errors, reads as if machine translated, non-neutral, etc.). Nonetheless, you are welcome to help out copyediting those articles. ɴᴋᴏɴ21 ❯❯❯ talk 08:34, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

@Nkon21, thanks for the note. I am checking all articles tagged in that month for WP:GOCE. I didn't notice major or frequent grammatical issues on my review, hence my removal. I have no issue with your restoration of the template. You can also use the |reason= parameter to mark specific issues. Best, Wracking talk! 16:04, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that this edit you made on Swedish Navy broke a citation "A Day Aboard HSwMS Kullen" (primarily the archive link). I think it was just a copy-paste error when using the visual editor, so probably nothing to be concerned about — I mean, I fixed it — but I just wanted to let you know in case there's some deeper problem. Cheers. — W.andrea (talk) 22:36, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

I just noticed you also put the citation text directly in the explanatory footnote. There's a better way: you can nest footnotes. In this case I used {{NoteTag}} for the note and and <ref> tags for the citation. — W.andrea (talk) 22:46, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
