  We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "Chobblesome" was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that. Such articles are usually too complex. They need to be simplified before or immediately after being added to the Simple English Wikipedia. In addition, be sure to include attribution on the article's talk page. Thank you. PDLTalk to me!OMG, What have I done? 23:14, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I didnt copy and paste that, I just tidied up the page by adding headings and reformatting. Why was this reverted? Benjamin Bryztal (talk) 23:20, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
We do not have a template for the wiktionary but what you did was copy it from https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/chobble PDLTalk to me!OMG, What have I done? 23:21, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
No I did not. I have literally never seen that page. If you compare the page I wrote, you will see there is literally no similarity to the one you have linked. There is no piece of similar text between them.
So, if there is nothing wrong with what I have written, I would like you to reinstate my edit. It is just done for the sake of tidying up the page. Benjamin Bryztal (talk) 23:25, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
No I will not revert it back.
  1. The information you presented is wrong, as the "word" is not an actual word in the english dictionary
  2. You wrote it up just as a wiktionary entry would be.
  3. You are not using simple english which is what simple wikipedia is about. Simple english words.
  4. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not a dictionary, which is why this article is at Request for Deletion. PDLTalk to me!OMG, What have I done? 23:40, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Well if the problem was just not using simple language, then why didn't you say? That is very easily fixed. I am new to simple English wiki, and there is no other page for chobblesome on another wiki so my only option is to assist it here. But to counter your other points:
1. I didn't present any new information, I just reformatted it to be more readable
2. What is the problem with this? I am new to this wiki, but if it does the job, what is the problem? I can't find any rules against it
3. Alright I will go and simplify it now, although I do not buy this as a legitimate point as there are much more complex word than "adjective" on this wiki
4. Fair enough, but then why revert an individual edit if you want the whole page deleted?
But basically, why do you care if you want the page deleted? And why accuse me of plagiarism or use counter-vandalism tools? Benjamin Bryztal (talk) 23:49, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
See WP:DICTIONARY. I highly encourage you to read through it; Also if you read the main entry page and follow along the rules, it tells you what and what not to do. This is the only article about it and again, it is a promotional piece. I care because I fight vandalism and those who do it. So that covers all of your counter arguments. At this point, I will no longer engage in this conversation as the points have been made. PDLTalk to me!OMG, What have I done? 23:56, 25 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Alright. But do not fear, I have been reading about how to right for this wiki, so I will go and fix any perceived errors in what I wrote, although I do not appreciate your strange and continuous accusations of vandalism on my part. And no, you cover literally 1 of my arguments. I am perfectly familiar with WP:DICTIONARY, and I think chobblesome would be better suited on Wiktionary, but for now, it is here. I may sort later.
