Reverted Simple talk

Please do not remove sections from simple talk unless it is vandalism. It will be archived when it is time to be archived. These are kept for historical purposes in the archives for easier finding, even if it does not make sense. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 23:38, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

"These are kept for historical purposes"- What's worth keeping here as I'm intrigued?, As stated in the editsum if we kept such posts the page would be full of random letters of the alphabet.... –Davey2010^Talk 23:41, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

I've pasted yours and their comment to the talkpage which I hope resolves this, I just don't see a point or benefit to allowing people to post O, A, M posts to a talkpage but thats my 2p, Have a great day, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 23:46, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Notice

Hello. This message is being sent to tell you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is "Issue with Davey2010". Thank you. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 23:47, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi!

Thanks for being patient on the ^^ above stuff. I saw emails this early morning and went through what happened. I would have been much more annoyed by this, but you just dealt with it like a pro. Haha, just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your work here and don't let this bother you. Cheers! BRP ^ever 01:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi @BRPever, Thank you so much for your kind words they mean a lot to me, I'll be perfectly honest I'm currently indeffed on Commons for incivility and nearly got indeffed on EN for the same reason - So I'm slowly but gradually trying to change the way I approach and deal with things now, I'm not perfect but I'm trying do a better person than I was,

Meh they don't bother me I've had worse lol,

Anyway thanks so much for your lovely words that really do mean a lot to me, I hope you and yours are well, Take care, Warm Regards, Dave /// –Davey2010^Talk 01:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Apologies

I wanted to apologize for what I said and did today. It was not right of me to do so. After reading your response to BRP you and I are blocked for the same reason on en wiki. I hope this can be put behind us and we can move forward as a team to build this encyclopaedia. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 09:28, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your apology, Without making things worse I feel I should reply to the en block comment - I'm not blocked on en[1], I am blocked on Commons for incivility[2] and unfortunately you're indeffed on en for socking/using an alt[[3] so respectfully not nearly the same reasons,

Anyway I agree we're all here to build an encyclopedia and would much rather we work together than to be at each others throats every time, Have a great day, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 14:39, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

It is actually a block for incivility. Very long and drawn out issue that even our sysops could not figure out what was going on and still do not. Agreed! Thank you for expressing and explaining your block comment. But yes it was the same thing. The socks were just me wanting to be on there. 🙃 Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 14:42, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Side note: You got a few short term blocks for it on en wiki lol. I lost count of my socks and for this account I sent it to them to advise them I lost my password and had to create a new account so they blocked it within minutes of me notifying them, but it is what it is. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 14:45, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Ah okay fair enough, EN's not known for being relaxed with anything to be fair lol,

No worries thank you for not taking the comment the wrong way - I spent a good 45 minutes trying to word it in a way that didn't come across in a dickish way so thank you for not taking it the wrong way,

Anyway thank you for your apology, Take care, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 14:57, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Your Signature

Hey! Just wanted to swing by and let you know that I stumbled upon your signature, and I couldn't resist taking some inspiration from it (basically just copy/pasted it T.T)! Hope you don't mind the imitation. Cheers! – Cyber.Eyes2005^Talk 14:20, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Cyber.Eyes.2005, I'll be honest I don't mind people taking inspiration from it but I'd much rather they change the colours than just reusing the entire thing, there's no creativity or uniqueness that makes you stand out :), Not only that most people associate those colours with this idiot ... surely you don't want to be associated with this idiot lol,

Your signature atm doesn't really match your username, i guess for some reason i expected more of a horror feel so black and red etc, But of course it's what you're happy with and if you're happy with it then cool :), Obviously I can't make you change the colours but anyway thanks for your message, Have a great day :), Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 14:38, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, it doesn't really match, but the thing is, I didn't really know much about how this formatting works, lol. I've changed it a bit, and yeah, it does really confuse people when two people have the same signature (including myself). Thanks, and have a great day as well. :) – Cyber.Eyes2005^Talk 15:15, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

@Cyber.Eyes.2005, Ah okay fair enough - to be fair I took my signatures from other people but had changed the colours lol, Haha don't worry it HAD confused me too :) Thanks so much for updating it I greatly appreciate that :), I have to say yours actually looks a lot better than mine haha, Many thanks again, –Davey2010^Talk 15:34, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

Subpage transcluding

Hi there. Your subpage User:Davey2010/Dashboard is calling a protection template from somewhere. This is putting it in the category of Category:Wikipedia pages with incorrect protection templates. Can you fix it so it does not transclude into there please? There is a bot from Ferien that does this, however, that page does not have the code on it so the bot cannot remove it because it is being called from something else you have pulled. See User:FerienBot2. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 08:05, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PotsdamLamb, Many thanks for making me aware of this, It doesn't look like there's nothing my end I can do but I'll have a look around and see if I can remove it, The page was supposed to be on my userpage but for some reason it's not and truth be told I've obviously never looked at it since like 2017 so I'll have a look around and if there's nothing I can do then I'll blank it by the end of the day,

Many thanks for making me aware of this, I'll see what I can do. Many thanks, Warm regards. –Davey2010^Talk 11:48, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

No worries. I am going through them to find my next cat to work on for the project and that happened to pop-out. So you know, I am working on something similar if you would like to view it and maybe help out where I am stuck at. It is at Template:Admin dashboard Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 12:37, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Okie dokie I'll take a look at that and see if I can help :), Happy editing, Many thanks, Warm regards, –Davey2010^Talk 12:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PotsdamLamb, I've added "<noinclude></noinclude>" to the protection template at WP:Request for permissions which has removed my page from the category,

Given how easy it was, something tells me you're going to come here later and tell me I've inadvertently introduced a new error somewhere else now :P, Anyway thanks again for making me aware, Many Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 13:20, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Naw I think it should be ok. I did not see any issues when I tested it out on other pages and a lot of pages of the include/noinclude on them. Thanks for taking care of that. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 13:33, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Ah okay I didn't realise that lol - I searched on EN and didn't get far, tested other things but they didn't remove the cat, Seen someone suggest noinclude, Gave up and decided to assume en:WP:ROLLBACK must be transcluded everywhere and checked out the protection on that page and yeah it was wrapped in that code so thought I'd try it and wish for the best lol.

Anyway no worries, I'm rather amazed it's been there for 7 years and no one's ever mentioned it (I'm guessing you're the only person that's viewed that page in a very long time!), Anyway I'm glad I've fixed it instead of going with my original thought "Well it's on WPs page so it's a WP problem", Thanks again, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 13:45, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Yup. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 13:48, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

and again, if you want to help on that board I am creating, you are more than welcome to. I see Peterdownunder is using it, so my goal is for it to be a whole one stop shop. I am working with the CU team about changing the way they do things so it can pop up for them but for now, I am not gaining much ground. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 13:49, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Dana Tanamachi

Hi, Davey. Just a note: when an RFD is closed, the RFD template needs to be removed from the page. Someone else has removed it for you. We don't usually encourage non-admin closures, but I think this one was OK. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 00:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Auntof6, Slap on the wrist for me!, My apologies, I was closing 2 AFDs at the same time and completely forgot about the main article page, I'll be honest I've spent 3 weeks on an article and I guess I just wanted a change of scenery for a bit or to do something completely different for a while,

I'm surprised you didn't come here about clogging up recent changes - apologies for that too - I did ask at ANI but understandably everyone was busy so after an hour of waiting I just cracked on with it, Anyway thanks for the heads up about the AFD notice I wont multitask in future :P, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 00:45, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

I don't usually look at recent changes, so I wouldn't have noticed unless someone brought it up! I figure if your changes aren't bothering anyone, then it's not a big deal. -- Auntof6 (talk) 00:48, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

The Golf Article

Since it’s in your user space are you ok if I try to fix that cite error? If I can’t it’ll be reverted to prior to me touching it. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 00:23, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PotsdamLamb, Of course you can, I should also add in case you try it - I've tried linking from the page nearest to the page cited (357) as well as used Wayback Machine and Archive.Is and nothing's worked (and using old Google books for linking/wayback/archive.is hasn't worked either) so my plan was to just leave it as it is,

I just felt an old black and white image and some background info on it sort of made it more verifiable than say a 2022 news article on it if that makes sense,

I don't pay for books etc so I don't know why it allows me to view it without issue but doesn't let anyone else view it, Anyway good luck hope you can fix it, Many thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 00:51, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

No worries. You can also apply to the Wikipedia library which gives you access to some more resources as well. That’s if you don’t already have it.

Library front page Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:07, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

@PotsdamLamb, I had no idea that even existed thanks so much!, Could I ask though are you a member of that ?,

One criteria is no active blocks but I'm indeffed on Commons ? I mean Commons is images though .... if I've survived for 10 years on the English Wikipedia without being indeffed then surely that must say something right ?,

Didn't know if it was worth signing up for if I could potentially be declined because of the indef?, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:27, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

I’m indeffed on ENWP and I have access. If it doesn’t grant you access automatically I believe it allows you the option to request and you can mention it. I’m not sure what the implications of commons blocked would be. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:29, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

@PotsdamLamb oh okay fantastic, I'll give a go and see then, Brilliant thank you for that I appreciate that a lot, Many thanks, Warm regards, –Davey2010^Talk 01:31, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Very welcome! Yeah all you do is log in with your account. If it doesn’t like you it will tell you so. The work would be if you get denied. It is a great resource to find old works and a lot of open source information that may be subscription only otherwise. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:36, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Ah okay, I'll check it out properly tomorrow and see how it all goes lol, Yeah they reckon theyve partnered with a good load of paywalled companies etc so I bet there is valuable and useful stuff there, I'll check it out properly tomorrow, Many thanks again for telling me about that, Have a great day, Many Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 01:41, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Did you have a chance to check this out? Let me know what happens. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:40, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

I didn't as I completely forgot!, Will try tomorrow if I don't forget again!, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:50, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Ok so I found the issues.

First, I ran the citation bot against it, which removed some unneeded parameters from the citations. There was still one issue which I had to manually fix. That was you had url-access=subscription twice in one citation. When I removed that, all the issues were gone and it reflects that all of your citations are good to go.

Two other minor things I did was changed the circa to about (simpler english, as c. is not really a simple word or meaning in most cases) and I rephrased that same sentence for ease of reading. You are more than welcome to revert those back.

If you need anything else, please let me know. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 02:10, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Not sure how I ended up adding that twice but many thanks for fixing those, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 16:07, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Yeah something’s are hard to spot but during a preview it told me url= was used twice and only the last parameter would be used. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 19:17, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Hey

I cannot remember the name off the bat, but I am sure someone may realize who it is. I have seen this before. This is in regard to Special:Diff/9478011 on VIP. If I remember correctly, they were doing this to music articles in late February/early March. They were so random so it is hard to pinpoint it. Might have to look through all the check users and changes to VIP.

Side note, I am going to look at your article now too (I have had a busy couple of days). I also hope we can get little DYK out of it :). I will let you know what I find. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:36, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PotsdamLamb, Yeah now I think of it I'm sure this happens or used to happen on EN too and I'm sure it was @Binksternet who I always saw revert them?, I remember the name ZestyLemons or something like that but I dont know if this is them either,

Either way this definitely isn't a new user I know that much! :), Haha I'll be honest I thought you already did check the page or that preview source and gave up lol, I'll be honest I've never done DYK stuff before as my creativity in that department is nil lol, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:48, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

The vandal case may be seen at Long-term abuse/Date-changing vandal from Poland. They used IPs from Poland such as Special:Contributions/31.0.37.29, Special:Contributions/31.0.41.56 and Special:Contributions/176.221.120.24, then they created the username Agnieszka1235. All of these should be blocked. Binksternet (talk) 06:46, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Binksternet Fantastic many thanks for replying, Happy editing, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 16:05, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

@Binksternet Thanks, I have relayed this post on to our admins. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

@Binksternet All were blocked. Thanks for the valuable feedback. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:33, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

It is easy. If you can get the article fully developed to at least (I believe, but may be wrong) a GA status, it can be used for a DYK. (Ok so easy for me to say, maybe not easy to do lol). Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 01:51, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Ah okay if that's the case that's us screwed lol, Meh to be honest I'm quite happy with the way it is (as in non-DYK or GA), Thanks, Happy editing, –Davey2010^Talk 01:58, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Hey

Are you on IRC or Discord? If so, hit me up. Username is the same on both. Thanks, and be well! - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:32, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately not, Happy editing, Thanks –Davey2010^Talk 23:43, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Katie Hill (actress)

Hi, do you know where this might be copied from? I can't seem to find it anywhere on enwiki. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 19:48, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Ferien, Oops my apologies, As the other creations were copy/pastes I just blindly assumed this was too, Many thanks for making me aware of this, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 20:24, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

That's alright. It does look a bit like a copy tho. I might try and look at it more at some point. Thanks :) --Ferien (talk) 20:50, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

@Ferien, It does it looks way too perfect to be a brand new newb article, I've also come across Yksnamu who's uploaded images of subjects that Eceerp has created which seems slightly weird, Unfortunately over at en:Sarah Sugden (2005 character) her name's never been linked as far as I can see so I can't find anything to say this ever existed but for sure this definitely isn't a new article, If the article layout is different from the deleted articles and things like "Ref" (in table) aren't present in the deleted articles then that would confirm it's been copied/pasted from somewhere but without evidence I guess there's not a lot one can do, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 22:03, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Zat Knight

About this edit: special:diff/9503130, the only visible difference is his height (6 ft 7 vs. 6 ft 6). I'm not sure which is correct but enwiki says 6 ft 6. The removal of spaces probably wasn't the purpose of the edit - it may be done automaticaly by the visual editor. Kk.urban (talk) 17:55, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Kk.urban, Many thanks for making me aware I didn't realise they had changed the height, Indeed EN lists it as 6ft 6in so I've reinstated their edit, Thanks again it's much appreciated, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 18:10, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Chichester buses

I changed busses to buses in the Chichester article because the plural in the article "Bus" is spelled that way. T. Tony Holkham (talk) 21:07, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Tony Holkham, Not quite sure how I came to miss that but you did indeed so my apologies for reverting you, I've reverted back to your edits, Many thanks. Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 06:45, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Rajput and Rajputization and Chandel

hello, @Davey2010. please look at Rajput and Rajputization Chandel and restore old version. An editor has added copy content from English wiki. Hcsrctu (talk) 15:12, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi [[User:Hcsrctu|Hcsrctu], Many thanks for your message, I've reverted all of their edits as as you say their edits all have been copy/pasted from EN, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 16:04, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, @Davey2010. Hcsrctu (talk) 07:50, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

User talk:2400:1A00:BD20:E4A9:F119:B176:7416:B986, Yeah that was rather embarrassing no idea what went wrong there my apologies!. Ive reverted back, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 19:56, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi

Hi there Davey

I just reverted the Joseph Williams article that you marked for quick deletion. I noticed that the article was vandalized and the old article had links to 19 other wikipedia pages. I see this as intentional vandalism, not a new page, so placing a quick deletion form is unnecessary and confusing. I know your actions were an attempt to prevent vandalism, I acknowledge that and thank you very much for this.

Best regards

Rose

Anabelase2 (talk) 15:42, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Anabelase2, Thanks so much for not only spotting this but for also reverting me, I obviously had no idea it was vandalised, I did do a search prior to speedying and obviously it came back with the musician (not the 2003 like I first believed),

I've removed the warning on your talkpage please accept my apologies for this, Thanks again for your help in fighting vandalism it's greatly appreciated, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 15:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Regarding CU

You are a really outstanding editor, and to me, you are an admin without tools. If you want to run for adminship in the future, you might be the one for our community. I am happy to nominate you. You haven’t made any mistakes, I just reverted it because you filed a CU, and I wanted CU to check on it. By the way, CU cannot check IP addresses. DIVINE 13:43, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @DIVINE, Thank you so much for your kind words they really do mean a lot thank you, Unfortunately I'm happy just being a normal editor to be honest and I suspect my indef-block on Commons would sink the RFA anyway,

I would love to be an admin but admins are held to a much higher standard over us normies and to be honest being an admin means more things can wrong, Meh I'm happy being an editor but thank you for your kind words anyway they do mean a lot

Also regarding the CU; I know IPs can't be checked but I was saying the IPs comment was my reason for the withdrawal that was all, Anyway Happy editing, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 19:46, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Rollback

Hey, Just a friendly reminder, Rollback isn't for good faith edits. I feel that this was maybe not the best use of the feature. Happy editing! Yottie ^=talk= 17:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I didn't use rollback ? and an edit summary was provided too, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 17:36, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

@Yottie My mission was to tackle vandalism faster and catch vandalism that could otherwise be missed but I had no idea until now that my (and others) edits all now appear under the rollback filter tag which I have a major problem with,

You can use the undo feature with the tool but you have to click a box for every revert which is a pain/time consuming so I think I'll go back to Twinkle for now, Shame as it was efficient and beneficial to the community but my reverts sitting in that tag when I've not even used rollback doesn't sit well with me so thanks for making me aware of that, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 17:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Hey, it was just a friendly warning. It seems strange it's tagged as Rollback if that's not what it is. Maybe one to raise if you are concerned? I'm all for swift and efficient reverts. In this case though, I don't think it was vandalism. Keep up the good work, I have seen some great anti-vandalism work on your part. Happy editing! --Yottie ^=talk= 18:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, Oh no It's all cool, neither did i but reading it you'd think the editor was rollbacked and is the reverted really going to read that long edit summary ? doubt it lol, Thanks so much, I'll raise it and see if it can be changed - I'm assuming the tool uses the rollback but allows edit summaries, it also allows you to thank IPs -(something you can't do normally!),

Yeah no that revert wasn't the first error I've made either so yeah I think I'll stick to basics - not a lot can go wrong that way :),

Anyway thanks for your friendly reminder and kind words, Take care, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 18:50, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

QD A4

Hi there, I noticed the ping I got on this talk page, and you've removed the conversation since, so I don't want to bother you too much. I just wanted to point out that awards are usually interpreted as claims to notability and therefore make articles ineliglble for A4. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 12:37, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Ferien, Ah okay I didn't know that so many thanks for making me aware, Have a great day, Many thanks, Warm regards, –Davey2010^Talk 12:41, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

When I decline a QD I don't add it an RfD, that's for someone else to do. fr33kman 10:54, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

@Fr33kman I never said you should ?..... I said "or respectfully you can leave it to someone else to delete ? ".... Never mentioned AFD. –Davey2010^Talk 12:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, my mistake. :( fr33kman 13:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

No worries, Happy editing, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 14:43, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

What?

My edit was not what you call "vandalism". People know that adding a picture that you uploaded is not "vandalism" So, stop trying to make me look bad. Thank you! SingFan2023 (talk) 13:48, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Indeed you should have recieved a "disruptive editing" warning, Respectfully only you are responsible for your actions and thus "looking bad", Thank you. –Davey2010^Talk 14:30, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Thanks for that! I was debating on doing that myself, but I was afraid! Cheers, Hockeycatcat (talk) (changes) 12:53, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Hockeycatcat, No worries, The delinking of words, replacing evacuate with restrains and replacing okay words with words such as Empowered didn't sit well with me, I felt their words were more complex than what was already there but anyway no worries :), Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 13:01, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Your recent changes to PAW Patrol

Hi, Davey. I've been working on errors in the use of Template:Infobox television, and the ones in this article seem to be from your changes. Your changes added some parameters that aren't supported, and added some invalid parameter values. In case you want the details, here they are:

• An image was added that is not in Commons, so we can't use it here.
• In the "country" parameter, the linked name "Canada" was changed to the template {{Canada}}. This displays the country name with a flag, which is not supposed to be done in most infoboxes.
• The parameter "network" was replaced with "networks", which is an unknown parameter. The singular form is correct, even if there are two or more networks to display.
• The following obsolete parameters were added: show_name, website, picture_format, audio_format

I'm sure you already know this, but it's a good idea to preview changes before saving them. That wouldn't have caught all the things I listed, but it would have shown that the image couldn't be found. It would also have shown the flag next to the country name (but I think that not everyone knows that those shouldn't be used). As for the other parameters, you'd have to notice that the values specified were not being displayed, which admittedly is harder to detect.

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know. -- Auntof6 (talk) 12:27, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Auntof6, Many thanks for your message,

You may not be aware but we have a person who's been adding made up/fake information to articles (using new ips everyday) since 2021-2022 so for the time being I've been restoring articles back to x revision,

I understand and appreciate my way isn't ideal but to compare and then copypaste each article is time consuming and it's not going to be a quick fix given they've done this to hundreds if not thousands of articles as like I said it's been going on since 2021 if not earlier,

That all being said I'll make a start this weekend and see how far I get as I'd rather do something about it than just revert back to x revision knowing it's still not the correct info displayed,

Once I've done would it be advisable to get these articles autoconfirmed-protected otherwise I'm just wasting my time and fighting a losing battle (I'm already doing that getting the idiot rangeblocked but would be worse putting the work in and then finding out next day they're adding made up stuff again),

Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010^Talk 14:21, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay, I get it. At least the articles do show up in maintenance categories so we can find them and fix them again. Thanks for your reply. -- Auntof6 (talk) 05:49, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

True, No worries, Happy editing, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 11:20, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Adding/updating infoboxes

Hi, Davey. When you add or update an infobox, would you please check to see if any references or notes were added that need to be displayed? A few of the ones you just did put the articles in Category:Pages with missing references list. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 16:50, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Auntof6, I'll go through these now, I automatically assumed the ref stuff was on these pages and then some way through realised they were missing, I'll go through and add those I've missed, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 17:06, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Sometimes it's notes or grouped references. The message in red at the bottom of the page will tell you what's needed. -- Auntof6 (talk) 17:07, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

 Done fixed these, Yeah I hadn't scrolled that far down as felt I had no reason too, Thanks for making me aware, –Davey2010^Talk 17:11, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Refs missing

Just an fyi gonna fix refs once done getting rid of the content first - not forgotten just can't multitask :) –Davey2010^Talk 20:45, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

You have been blocked from changing Wikipedia for 24 hours for being uncivil: swearing at one user when you didn't like what they said and calling another user an idiot.

Once the block has ended you can make helpful changes. Please read Wikipedia's blocking policy and remember that adding spam, making changes that do not have a neutral point of view, making personal attacks on others, not respecting other people's privacy, and vandalizing pages are not allowed. If you do any of these things, you will be blocked again.

If you think this block is unfair, you can ask to be unblocked by adding {{Unblock|your reason here}} below. If you cannot do this or the reason is private please send an e-mail to simple-admins-l@lists.wikimedia.org and an administrator will look at your reason and reply. You may want to read our guide to unblock requests before asking to be unblocked. Auntof6 (talk) 18:06, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

@Auntof6 Diff for the first one? And respectfully, what would you call someone who spends their time vandalising articles and recieves a block again and again and again ? Idiot was the nicest word.

I take it you didn't like my reply here which is the real reason I'm blocked, Maybe if you don't want to block vandals than maybe you should resign. Clutching at straws in order to block me is sad and rather pathetic. –Davey2010^Talk 18:14, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

We wont block the IP whos only a vandal, we'll block the guy who became enraged over his VIP report being declined on the basis that "they were warned insufficiently" despite said reply showing they were warned to death time and time again. Couldn't make it up. –Davey2010^Talk 18:17, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Your diff. And you've now lost talk page access. -- Auntof6 (talk) 18:20, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
