Hi,

Your reverts of my edits were wrong and they seem to be doe for the sake of doing it. The changes I made were absolutely correct without any shred of doubt. If you have any logic behind your reverts, let me know. Else, I will revert your "reverts" soon. GurbaazK (talk) 03:36, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GurbaazK: why did you add a fava bean recipe to the article on kidney bean? Do you know how the {{Distinguish}} template is intended to be used? Walsh90210 (talk) 03:37, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Walsh90210 To save me checking all of these individually, is there a reason for so many in a row? Was there a common problem with all of them? MWQs (talk) 00:01, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at an article of yours that was AFD'd, and saw multiple redirects of yours with problems. Two main problems: 1) You can't just take one incident of "mass graves" in a country, and redirect "mass graves in X" to it; 2) there is no need for every "The X" to redirect to X. Walsh90210 (talk) 00:04, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for explaining. I don't redirect every instance of "The", it was just particularly relevant for that one. e.g. The Ukraine exists as a redirect as well. It's particularly likely to be useful for topics from languages that don't have an exact equivalent of English "the", or for disputed territory. MWQs (talk) 00:19, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Which AfD? Maybe I should fix them there. MWQs (talk) 00:20, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you be more specific about what you mean by disruptive? (I saw you mention that on another page) I am trying to be constructive, so if I'm getting it wrong, I want to improve. MWQs (talk) 01:17, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Two points:

1. You violated the WP:ARBECR requirement for Israel-Palestine quite a bit when starting editing.
2. There are sufficiently many "questionable" redirect creations in your editing history that review by an admin (who can delete them unilaterally) might be called for.

I don't think anything I was editing early on was mared as restricted. I didn't get a notification about it until recently. Some things I edited early have subsequently been added to that list. MWQs (talk) 05:15, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a way I can clean up my own created redirects? e.g. If I find any others where I was redirecting a broad topic to a single example of such. MWQs (talk) 05:22, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was either that or send it to WP:AFD. The creating editor appears to be upset about the man, so I imagine he will be about the church. Thank you for pointing it out. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 16:16, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The primary "claim to fame" for the building seems to be that it is now the Sarasota Historial Society building. Walsh90210 (talk) 16:21, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there! I am sending this alert to all members of the WikiProject Weather and editors who have recently edited in the realm of tornadoes.

There is a large and important discussion ongoing, with the goal to completely overhaul and improve the List of F5 and EF5 tornadoes. The previous improvement attempt back in 2022/2023 gained almost no participation. This alert is being sent out so these discussions hopefully gain a reasonably-sized participation, so the F5/EF5 tornado article, one of the most viewed weather-related articles on Wikipedia, can be improved for all readers!

If you wish to participate, please visit: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Weather/Possible F5/EF5/IF5 tornadoes. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 17:33, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
