My edits on Jever

edit

Why did you revert them? I spent all evening expanding that article! Kuupanyu (talk) 19:28, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

My apologies, I was on the bad faith edits section of the recent changes page, which had flagged yours. I'd seen it and realised that it wasn't vandalism, but forgot to close the tab. When I went onto the next article and saw that it was vandalised,I'd accidentally CTRL+Tabbed to your edit and reverted it. I tried to undo my edit and explain myself in the reason for the undo, but you'd ended up getting there before me. Apologies once again Hunter 19:37, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for clarifying. Apology accepted. Kuupanyu (talk) 19:38, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Warning Vandals

edit

Thanks so much for all your work in reverting vandalism - you're doing a great job. Might I make one suggestion? Make sure to warn the vandal after you revert their edit. The main purpose of this is to document the vandalism so that a repeat offender can be blocked by administrators. Warning vandals is very easy with Twinkle (which you appear to be using). When you revert the vandalism with Twinkle, it should open up the vandal's talk page. Then, choose "Warn" from the TW menu, and select a warning and a warning level. (You can read about how to choose a warning level at WP:WARNVAND.) If there have been previous warnings, you should choose a higher warning level. If a vandal continues to vandalize after a final warning, then the vandal can be reported to WP:AIV and ultimately blocked. (Except in extraordinary circumstances, a vandal should not be reported without being warned.) Again, thanks for all your work, and let me know if you have any questions. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 22:26, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Thanks a lot for the feedback - I'm a bit new around here as you can probably see so I didn't know that I could warn others. Is the vandal's talk page meant to automatically open after reverting the vandalism? Whenever the page loads after the revert is a success, the page automatically loads to the now-fixed article page. Maybe it's due to me having it set as a gadget instead of a browser extension? Regardless, I'll start using the warn feature now. Thanks a lot for the offer - if I ever need some help I'll be sure to ask! Hunter 22:37, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for being so receptive to feedback. Go to your Twinkle settings (at WP:TWPREF) and look under "Revert and rollback." Check the three boxes under "Open user talk page after these types of reversions." Once you revert the vandalism, it will refresh the article page and open the user talk page in a new tab. If you want, you can also check the "Automatically open the Twinkle warn menu on a user talk page after Twinkle rollback" box, and it will automatically open the warn menu as well. Happy editing!

Just found out what was causing it - my Firefox is set up to automatically block pop-ups. I've read through the vandalism page and think I've got a hang of it. Cheers again for the advice. Hunter 23:01, 15 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Renu Devi

edit

Renu Devi's page had a box when she was ex-MLA. Now she is MLA again. So I removed the box. I do not understand what you mean by 'constructive' change. If you want to keep outdated information, nothing I can do about it. I have limited time for editing wiki poages.

Hi there! I apologise if you took it the wrong way, but you hadn't cited any sources in the edit that I reverted. In particular, I am talking about where you changed 'former' Vice-President into 'National' Vice-President. As this changes the meaning of the article, and the fact that you hadn't added any other information, made it appear to be vandalism. In addition to this, you had removed an entire infobox from the page. This included many fields, such as "Name","Office", "Term Start", "Term end" etc. I would have otherwise left the article for others to check, as it could have been breaking news so no new citations could have been added at that time. However, the complete removal of an infobox (instead of just removing certain fields) made it appear to be vandalism. This was also backed up by Wikipedia's detector, which had determined it to be a "very likely bad faith" edit. I am very sorry to find out that this wasn't the case - I try to do everything in good faith - and apologise once again. I have added the link in the next comment for you to see exactly what you had changed for the edit I reverted and hopefully see my point of view. In the future, please consider adding citations to the information that you add (if it changes the meaning of the article) and please make sure you don't delete the entire infobox - just the fields.

Antebellum

edit

I’m confused as to why clear grammatical mistakes I tried to correct were reverted. For example, I deleted an added “a” and changed “condescendingly” to “condescending”. I also corrected the phrase: “meet go with” which is clearly an error. I understand you might question items such as the capitalization of “the General,” but his character’s name was he was anonymous was “Him,” not “the General”. I also eliminated an extra space before a comma. At the very least, that was a typographical errors. These may have been reverted because I realized I hadn’t logged in but used the “minor” button. However, my hope is that you take a look at my suggestions, as it is obvious these were clear grammatical and typographical errors. I submit this respectfully. Thank you for reading. 2601:84:300:56D0:28FA:272D:9F03:8458 (talk) 12:19, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Also, I realized my phone autocorrected some of my message above. Please allow me to clarify one item further, below. Again, I send these corrections respectfully. I’m not a regular editor on Wikipedia and do not mean to offend. I am sure that the examples I listed, such as an extra “a,” a space before a comma, the added “ly” to one of the words, and the two verbs next to each other were definitely mistakes. I’m not sure if the fact that I wasn’t logged in is the reason you reverted those changes or not. I do hope these are given a fresh look later on.

There was also an autocorrect typo where I meant to say that the character referred to as “the General” actually had a name during the time his identity was unknown to the audience. That name was “Him” - not “the General”. I may be wrong, but my thought was even if the original author meant to refer to him as that, it was not his official character name or title, therefore “the general” should not need to be capitalized throughout. 2601:84:300:56D0:D86C:8BF1:EB2F:1B2C (talk) 12:31, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I just re-read the article.

I also tried to correct “tell” to “tells” and see that was reverted. I’m unsure as this usage is definitely incorrect in the sentence.

The other example I meant to give was the appearance of “meets agrees” - two verbs next to each other. I am 100% sure that this is incorrect as well. Could you please check with another editor if you disagree? 2601:84:300:56D0:D86C:8BF1:EB2F:1B2C (talk) 12:37, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

However, if you prefer to use “the General” then it should be used consistently. Toward the end of the plot summary, it is not capitalized in at least one or more instances.

There is also an extra space in one of the sentences I mentioned above.

Lastly, many of the sentences could be considered run-on. In these sentences the use of various commas are questionable. These sentences would be better understood and flow better if the editing was tightened. Starting a new sentence is always preferred to a run-on sentence.

I hope these comments help tighten and improve this article. Thank you again. 2601:84:300:56D0:D86C:8BF1:EB2F:1B2C (talk) 12:47, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi, just checked the article and big apologies! I just wanted to revert the 'General/general' capitalisation, but accidentally selected the option which reverted all of your edits instead of just the capitalisation one. Turns out I was wrong about the capitalisation as well- just looked it up on Google and seems like you're right. I've reverted my rollback so it's in the position you left it in. Apologies once again. Hunter 13:19, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

New College

edit

Hi there, 'College Links' section on the New College page removed as the information contained within is outdated and irrelevant. Please restore the removal.

Hi User:86.24.200.204, I reverted the edit as there was no information given at all as to why you had removed an entire section of the page. All that could be seen was that an unregistered member had removed a significantly large section of the article without any explanation. Unfortunately, Wikipedia suffers from unregistered vandals who perform 'section blanking', where they remove an entire section of content in order to remove other people's work. I had reverted it under the impression that this was one of those attacks. I apologise for reverting your edit, however I will not undo my revert immediately. Please see WP:Removal, where it states:
When removing a section of an article, it is necessary that it at least be explained, and in some cases, discussed. Unexplained removal of content is when the reason for the removal is not obvious, and is open to being promptly reverted.
As you can see, I was just following the rules. Additionally, I had been thanked for reverting the section deletion suggesting that your point of view is open to being challenged. In this case:
If an edit war occurs between just two users over content, it shall be discussed in hopes of a settlement from among the community.
Therefore, if you want to continue with the deletion, I would suggest putting it in the Talk page of the article, where you can discuss your point of view and see if it is open to challenge, where the community that works on the article can discuss whether to remove the section or not.
Please note that this is meant in the politest way possible. I am not trying to attack you or say that your decision was wrong. I am just explaining my decision and advising you as to how you can make sure that the community agrees with you. If you want me to create the section on the talk page, please reply and I will do so. If you need any other help, please feel free to ask.
Kind regards, Hunter 16:27, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi, think you've made the same mistake as numerous others. I'm stopping the vandalism as someone removed an entire section from the article. Although it appears to be nonsense, it describes a Dr. Seuss story, so it was a legitimate edit. Hunter 18:24, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

@2405:201:1003:D09A:68BF:FFFF:458E:BE91: Hi. On the article, you had added the sentence: "In the year 2020 he directed the movie ludo which is critically acclaimed and running successfully."

I cannot believe that you have actually looked at the version of the article that you are reverting to. 73.71.251.64 (talk) 01:43, 19 November 2020 (UTC) I am not vandalizing. I am reverting recent edits by Aneesa697 that were done in a particularly sloppy manner by adding text above the lead. If you want to blitz-revert, please focus on other articles. 73.71.251.64 (talk) 01:48, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

@73.71.251.64: Hi, I just suggested that instead of deleting all of the content, it could be moved to another section instead. Wiping 2/3 paragraphs of text (most likely added in good faith) would honestly be a disservice to the contributor, as they have presumably taken time out of their day to contribute. It seems like an honest mistake, so I would argue that completely removing all of that information is a disproportionate reaction to poor placement. It's all correctly cited etc. and the contributing user may not even check the edit log to add it back in later. Regards, Hunter 01:58, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Just saw an edit conflict happen. Re your second comment, I apologise for flagging it as section blanking, as it seems that you are also well intentioned. I would just argue that sloppy placement shouldn't be cause to completely remove otherwise perfectly fine content. Looking at their page, it appears to be that they're a new user, so instead using their content but changing the placement would be a much better alternative. Hunter 01:58, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
The way that Aneesa697 added the material shows wanton indifference to the most obvious features of article style and I would consider it their responsibility to do it again better. My priority is to restore a proper article lead so that people who look up that article to read it, like I did, will see a readable article. 73.71.251.64 (talk) 02:10, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
@73.71.251.64: Assuming that Aneesa697 was showing wanton indifference and deleting it for a lack of caring on their part, even though they wrote 3 paragraphs of cited content, goes against WP:GF. Believe it or not, not everyone (especially if they're younger) has awareness of such things. It would be best to assume that they did add the content in good faith, and perhaps discuss it with them as to why the placement is bad. They might not be watching the page and the deletion of the content, without alerting them on their talk page as to why, would most likely be a blow to them when they find out that the content they spent time to write and cite was deleted over an issue that they could have fixed if alerted to it. Wikipedia should be a place for new editors to feel welcomed, as the project thrives on the knowledge added by everyone as a collective. In my opinion, deletion without a direct notice to the user doesn't promote such an environment. Please note that I mean this completely respectfully, and I'm not trying to put you down or trying to cause an argument. I'm just putting myself in their shoes and thinking about how I would feel if this happened to me as a new user. Regards, Hunter 02:41, 19 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
