Re: [1]. This isn't right. There's no provision for an attribution template to be used as a WP:HATNOTE. Information about source material for an article belongs at the bottom of the article not the top. On which policy/guidance are you basing "No, that's were it belongs, and the template may not be bulleted"? Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 15:48, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Apologies, its language read similar to other notices I typically see at the top of articles ({{stub}} for one) and thought it should display at the top. I see I'm incorrect and now see that it's more like a {{Source-attribution}} template that I'm less familiar with. Due to SA's documentation, TGV does belong in the ref section as you had it. I've reverted my moves based on these findings.
- Apart from that, they still may not be bulleted, as they report stripped div errors (a tracked syntax error) when bulleted.
- Thanks for the kind message, apologies for the misunderstanding. Happy new year, Zinnober9 (talk) 17:48, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, and thanks for pointing out the bullet error. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 14:47, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello can you please tell me how to get in touch with Austin Miller? This is Jana 174.250.208.142 (talk) 04:06, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- I have no idea, and I do not reccomend you try to. Austin Miller is almost certainly NOT looking for people online.
- If anyone is claiming to be Austin Miller online, here, Facebook, or anywhere else, they are almost certainly a scam, do NOT trust anyone claiming to be him. Please safeguard yourself and your personal data and do not trust people on the internet. Additionally, Wikipedia is NOT A SOCIAL NETWORK. It is for building an encyclopedia, NOT for contacting people.
- Stay safe, trust no one, best wishes. Zinnober9 (talk) 05:43, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are ruining it for me! ~~ Creuzbourg (talk) 22:49, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

- You were fast to ruin it; not so fast to answer.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Creuzbourg (talk • contribs) 22:56, January 17, 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry for the bother. While I don't see how my minor correction in a single edit ruined anything for you, I've reverted my change, left your page exactly how you had it prior to my edit, and I will leave your page alone.
- There are 2.8 million tracked syntax errors on Wikipedia, and I enjoy correcting and eliminating these errors and follow the rules of WP:LINT when doing so. I regularly address image errors that have recently popped up since I and a few other editors caught up and cleared up the backlog of existing tracked image errors a few months ago. Image errors are common popups, so I try to address any new ones regularly to keep them from repopulating in any quantity and your sandbox had a few.
- Feel free to resume your sandbox as you wish, and how you wish. But please do Assume good faith for any editors who might pop in to address specific tracked page issue. We don't mean to bother any editor, we just try to keep specific tracked issues from occurring so they don't break or alter the page and present all data written as the author intended. Apologies for the bother, best wishes to you and your draft, Zinnober9 (talk) 23:27, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Additionally, I request that you remove my name from your User_talk:Creuzbourg/sandbox page, your statements about me are false and unfair. Thank you. Zinnober9 (talk) 23:30, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that - very weird AWB glitch as I was fixing reference errors. I should have double checked it wasn't doing anything else. ~Darth StabroTalk • Contribs 23:56, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- All fine, no worries. I was going after a few dozen image/gallery issues this evening, and found your edit but didn't find it intentionally problematic. I've been aware of some quirky edits relating to AWB every now and then, and this had the feeling of an "overlooked extra grab" issue. It might have been due to the "linebreak space linebreak" pattern I found after every section, but who knows. I've reinstated your correction of thousandfold and removed those odd linebreak spaces. Thanks for your fixes, and best wishes! Zinnober9 (talk) 00:06, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, quick question. You recently fixed the Second Anglo Ashanti war page, and I thank you very much for that. I was just wondering, how do I add those kind of lists without them being on bullet points or whatever? Hopefully my question is at least somewhat sensible, sorry if it isn't. Setergh (talk) 22:28, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Just stick the {{navbox}} on a fresh new line by themselves. These on Second Anglo–Ashanti War were on the same continuing line with the bulleted citation starting with ("Cite book |last=Fulley...") and just needed to be dropped down to a fresh new line like so. I hope this answers your question, best wishes. Zinnober9 (talk) 22:58, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you so much! Setergh (talk) 23:25, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Can you tell me exactly why the sources I provided are not considered reliable? One of them is a video from her company/group's official YouTube channel of her stating her birthday herself and the other is an article from a reputable Korean news source associated with the New York Times explaining the situation in regards to her country's laws at the time of her birth. Can you also explain how the other user's source, a random article using inaccurate second-hand information with no listed sources that isn't even primarily focused on the person in question, is considered more reliable? 47.210.24.130 (talk) 22:54, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Youtube is not a reliable source per Wikipedia:RSPYT, and your claim that it's from her company/group's official channel does not give any substance to it being reliable. Their (the channel's) job is to present their client in a positive light and make money, not tell her news in a fair and unbiased way that would hold up to journalistic fact-checking rigor. The other source, while it probably could be used as a source to explain the Korean date concept, does NOT make any mention of Belle, and could NOT be used as a reliable source to establish her birthday. These are the issues with your edit. When multiple editors are telling you Youtube is NOT a reliable source and why it may not be used, you should not be readding it again and again. This is called edit warring and will get you blocked. We are not your enemy, we are holding you the established standards required for reliable sourcing on WP:BLP articles.
- To help you, has she done any interview making mention of her birthdate and this date issue with a reliable news source, such as the likes of CNN, New York Times, a South Korean equivalent? If so, that could possibly be used. But her Youtube channel absolutely may NOT be used to source her birthdate. Zinnober9 (talk) 02:23, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- N/A. 47.210.24.130 (talk) 03:06, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- This is no longer a problem. I just deleted all YouTube references and info that only cited said references from the page. 47.210.24.130 (talk) 05:52, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
