== User warning templates ==

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made&#32;to [[:Pod Save America]]: you may already know about them, but you might find [[Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace]] useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the [[Wikipedia:sandbox|sandbox]]. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandal]] when they've been previously warned. Thank you.<!-- Template:Uw-warn --> —'''[[User:GalaxyDog|<span style="color:purple">Galaxy</span><span style="color:#252347">Dog</span>]]'''<sup>[[User talk:GalaxyDog|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/GalaxyDog|contribs]]</sup> 17:10, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User talk:Trains2050|my talk page]].

== What was the reason for removing my edit from Anikha? ==

Angdy😠 [[User:Ananya S Panicker|Ananya S Panicker]] ([[User talk:Ananya S Panicker|talk]]) 20:41, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
:Because it was not written with a neutral point of view. And even if she does hold that nickname, it's unsourced, so it was kinda going to be tossed out either way. [[User:JeffSpaceman|JeffSpaceman]] ([[User talk:JeffSpaceman#top|talk]]) 20:42, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

== Have you tried RedWarn? ==

I used to only use Twinkle for anti-vandalism (like you're doing), but now I use a newer tool (currently in beta) called [[Wikipedia:RedWarn|RedWarn]]. It allows for a lot of customization and has some other upsides too. One thing I like about it is how it opens the warning interface right after you rollback edit(s) (rather than simply opening the user's talk page). Since the tool is in beta, it lacks some features that Twinkle has (and thus I still have Twinkle installed), but I thought it would be worth telling you about if you haven't heard of it. Since you're a newer user, you may have an easier time acclimating to it. If you prefer Twinkle, that's okay too — I just thought I'd make you aware of RedWarn. Anyway, thanks for all the anti-vandalism work you've been doing! It makes Wikipedia a better encyclopedia! —'''[[User:GalaxyDog|<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:purple">Galaxy</span><span style="color:#4d046b">Dog</span>]]'''<sup>[[User talk:GalaxyDog|talk]]</sup></span> 22:08, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
:I have never used RedWarn, since I don't know how to set it up. I am perfectly happy with Twinkle, but I guess it could be nice to mix it up every now and then. If you could tell me how to set it up, that would be excellent, and thanks for the compliment -- always love getting some props! :-) [[User:JeffSpaceman|JeffSpaceman]] ([[User talk:JeffSpaceman#top|talk]]) 22:15, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
::First, you need to install Enterprisey's [[User:Enterprisey/script-installer|script-installer]] by going into the "Gadgets" section of your preferences and checking "Install scripts without having to edit JavaScript files." Then just go to [[Wikipedia:RedWarn]] and click "Install" on the infobox on the right side of the page. After you've installed it, you can configure it to your liking by clicking the gear icon that it adds to the top-right corner of every page. —'''[[User:GalaxyDog|<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:purple">Galaxy</span><span style="color:#4d046b">Dog</span>]]'''<sup>[[User talk:GalaxyDog|talk]]</sup></span> 22:21, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

== Regarding Names of the Phillipines ==
You removed my correction to the transcription of the Hebrew name because it "did not appear constructive". I am a native Hebrew speaker. The previous transcription, which you brought back to the page, is incorrect. It's not a matter of minor orthographic stylings, it's literally transcribing a different phrase from the Hebrew text next to it. It should be obvious, as the Hebrew text has three words, and the transcription only has two. If I made some sort of styling error, I'll be happy to be made aware of, but if you just removed my correction randomly or automatically, I'll put it back in. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/93.173.97.169|93.173.97.169]] ([[User talk:93.173.97.169#top|talk]]) 22:15, 19 June 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== [[Two Dogmas of Empiricism]] ==

I thought my addition was pretty clearly just a clarification. It only concluded the existing line of reasoning in the text. It is explicit in Quine's original paper that he synonymity must be predicated on a notion of necessity and thus analyticity, making the whole argument for defining synonymity quite circular! That's precisely what he tries to show, and is well-known by any philosopher who has read his paper. There is no whiff of 'opinion' about it, since I was merely wrapping up Quine's argument. Please revert.

== You are now a [[WP:RPC|pending changes reviewer]] and [[WP:RBK|rollbacker]]! ==

Hi [[User:JeffSpaceman|JeffSpaceman]]! I've been running into you while patrolling logs and recent changes, and I happened to notice that you don't have the ''rollback'' or ''pending changes reviewer'' user rights. I hope you don't mind, but I went through your contributions and I noticed that you're quite active in [[WP:RCP|recent changes patrolling]], and that you consistently view and undo [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] and bad faith disruption. I believe that these user rights would be useful for you to have and that you'd make good use of both tools. Instead of having you formally request these user rights at [[WP:PERM]], I went ahead and just gave them to you. These user rights allow you to [[WP:Reviewing pending changes|review edits that are pending approval]] on pages currently under [[WP:PC|pending changes protection]], as well as to [[WP:Rollback|quickly revert the edits of other users]] in cases of blatant vandalism.

:;[[WP:Rollback|Rollback permissions]]
[[File:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|100px]]

::Please keep these things in mind at all times when using rollback to revert edits:
:::*Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing [[WP:TW|Twinkle]]. It just adds a ''"[Rollback]"'' button next to a page's latest edits - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you (obviously).
:::*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear and unambiguous'' cases of [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] '''''only''''', and ''never'' used to revert [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].
:::*Rollback should '''never''' be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]], and it should '''never''' be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose, the rights will be revoked.
:::*Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, '''''ask'''''.

:::For more information on how to use rollback, see [[Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback|this tutorial page]].

::Please keep these things in mind regarding the tools or when you're reviewing any pending changes:
:::*A list of articles with pending edits awaiting review can be viewed at [[Special:PendingChanges]], and a list of the articles currently under pending changes protection can be viewed at [[Special:StablePages]].
:::*Being granted and having these rights does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you (obviously).
:::*You'll generally want to '''accept''' any pending changes that appear to be legitimate edits and are not blatant vandalism or disruption, and '''reject''' edits that are problematic or that you wouldn't accept yourself.
:::*'''Never''' accept any pending changes that contain obvious and clear [[WP:VAND|vandalism]], blatant [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]] issues, [[WP:COPYVIO|copyright violations]], or [[WP:BLP|BLP]] violations.

::You may find the following pages useful to review:
:::*[[Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes]], the guideline and tutorial on using the rights and reviewing pending changes.
:::*[[Wikipedia:Pending changes]], a summary of pending changes protection, the pending changes user right, and how it applies.
:::*[[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Pending changes protection]], the policy section on pending changes protection and its appropriate application and use by administrators.

I'm sure you'll do fine with these user rights - they're pretty straight-forward and they don't drastically change the interface that you're used to already. Nonetheless, please don't hesitate to leave me a message on my [[User talk:Oshwah|user talk page]] if you run into any questions, get stuck anywhere, run into any issues or problems, or if you're not sure if the use of either tool is appropriate or not and need my input or advice - I'll be more than happy to help you any time you need it. If you no longer want one or both of these user rights, let me know and I'll be happy to remove them for you. Thank you for helping to locate, revert, and remove vandalism, as well as review and keep disruptive edits off of Wikipedia - it's a very thankless job to perform and I want you to know that it doesn't go unnoticed and that I appreciate it very much. Happy editing! :-D [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 00:55, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

I've made my fair share of mistakes (sometimes i even forget rollback included in most semi-automated tools undos all the edits an editor has made up until the last edit by a different editor, after which I have to go through and add back the content that I meant to keep). ― [[User:Blaze The Wolf|<b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q">Blaze The Wolf</b>]][[User talk:Blaze The Wolf|<sup>Talk</sup>]]<sub title="Discord Username" style="position:relative;right:22q">Blaze Wolf#6545</sub> 13:13, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

== You're so fast! ==

Hi Jeff. Thanks for the 'thank' a few minutes ago. I'm currently enrolled in the Anti Vandalism Academy and am progressing through the training. I've started using Huggle to identify possibly vandalism but every page I go to you have already reverted the vandalism! I have to ask: what are you using to identify possible vandalism edits?? Cheers [[User:Cabrils|Cabrils]] ([[User talk:Cabrils|talk]]) 13:39, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

:Hello, sorry for the late reply. To revert vandalism (or any other problematic edits I spot on recent changes), I use [[WP:TWINKLE|Twinkle]]. Given that you are an older user than me, I'd assume you've heard about it, but if you don't know what it is, it's a tool that allows me to quickly revert edits that, for one reason or another, should not continue to stay up (vandalism, addition of unsourced content, [[WP:NPOV|NPOV]] violations, etc): in addition, it provides me with a set of user welcome and warning messages, in case I feel the need to do either. It's proven to be very useful in the nearly three years that I have been on here, and is probably my favorite tool that I have access to here. I'd definitely recommend it, if you haven't tried it.

*The cricketeer is truly a major historic figure in cricket, similar in stature to [[Willie Mays]] or [[Jack Nicklaus]]. And since cricket's ''so big'' outside the Americas, I suspect the consensus will evolve to keeping the page as is, independently of HiLo48's Yankeephobia.
*At [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:HiLo48 and incivility]], I encouraged you to ignore [[User:HiLo48|HiLo48]]. I didn't mean to blow off your concerns, I was just trying to be helpful to you. I expect an admin may sanction HiLo48.

Most links to disambiguation pages are mistakes and end up on a list of links that need to be fixed, and cause more work for people who fix them. So the policy is that all ''intentional'' disambiguation links include '(disambiguation)', even if that is a redirect. It's explained better at [[WP:INTDAB]], if you're interested.

== [[Sean Slater]] ==

Hi,

Thanks for [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sean_Slater&diff=prev&oldid=1185553232 your reversion] at [[Sean Slater]]. This IP editor is an intriguing case I've been following for a little while now. Most of his edits involve going against [[WP:NOTBROKEN]] and [[MOS:NOPIPE]], and he will often change the word "after" to "following". His favourite subject areas are British politics, British television, and Hampshire. He operates from a range of IP addresses - mostly in England, but occasionally in the Netherlands - and returns to the same addresses periodically.

I've (tentatively) identified him as [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Harry_the_house/Archive|"Harry the house"]]. Following the advice of another editor I've been reporting him to AIV and reverting his edits. I've tried persuasion once or twice without any positive outcome, but it seems to me that this is a hardworking and diligent editor who could be a productive member of Wikipedia - if only we could get him to follow the guidelines.

Best wishes, [[User:Jean-de-Nivelle|Jean-de-Nivelle]] ([[User talk:Jean-de-Nivelle|talk]]) 14:34, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

:Hello, sorry I didn't see this until now. I didn't know that this was an SPI case, and I'll definitely keep that in mind should I see editing along the lines of what you described again. I really didn't know that this was an editor with a history, I assumed good faith and just saw it as someone unintentionally going against the NOPIPE guidelines (admittedly, I wasn't aware of NOPIPE until last year, and I've been editing here since 2020). I appreciate you bringing this person's editing patterns to my attention. I do want to ask, though -- should this editor be reported to AIV? Given the background that you have provided, I think, since the SPI exists, it should probably just be reported there, since as disruptive as their editing may be, it doesn't appear to be obvious vandalism, and it could probably just be reported as block evasion (and potentially even ban evasion, per [[WP:3X]], though that is reliant on CheckUser evidence). I certainly see this as disruptive editing and block evasion, but I don't believe it to be vandalism. Is AIV the right venue for reporting their edits? Just wondering. [[User:JeffSpaceman|JeffSpaceman]] ([[User talk:JeffSpaceman#top|talk]]) 22:33, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
::Thanks for the response. I've been reporting to AIV because I was advised by [[User_talk:DuncanHill#"Harry_the_house"?|a more experienced editor]] that that was the best course of action. The comments at [[WP:Sockpuppet_investigations/Harry_the_house/Archive|the SPI]] I linked to above suggest that AIV is the quickest way to limit the damage, and SPI is largely impotent when the IP addresses change so frequently. I'm open to suggestions though.
::I do take your point about whether or not this behaviour fits the textbook definition of vandalism, and I've hesitated to revert his edits at times because the inevitable back-and-forth can be more disruptive than the edits themselves. It's hard to know what to call it though when he's been asked so many times to stop and refuses to communicate. [[User:Jean-de-Nivelle|Jean-de-Nivelle]] ([[User talk:Jean-de-Nivelle|talk]]) 22:54, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
:::I suppose that makes sense. AIV definitely takes less time than SPI, though I definitely prefer to use it for blatant vandalism over sneaky sockpuppeteering (in which case I typically go to SPI). I understand that it's hard to know what to really classify this user's behavior as, and it's not like it really matters when it comes down to it, since in any case it is unambiguous block evasion. All that aside, once again, thank you for bringing this to my attention, I'll definitely keep it in mind if and when I see such behavior patterns in the future.

== Removal of content re: Walt Harris ==

I was disturbed and confused Jeff by your removal of content you described as ‘puffing and unsubstantiated’. What you removed is completely factual and known in the public domain. Removing this content characterizing it is ‘puffing’ while including opinions critical of his coaching that are non factual is biased.

:If it is factual and known in the public domain, it needs a source to [[WP:Verifiability|verify]] it. Additionally, it must conform to our [[WP:Neutral point of view]] policy. The negative content is sourced to a reliable source, the positive content wasn't -- in fact, its subjective terminology ("His teams often achieved excellent results") was textbook [[WP:PUFFERY]], and even if it were sourced to a reputable publication, it would need more neutral wording to conform to [[WP:NPOV]]. If you would like to restore this content with more neutral wording supported by reliable sources (see relevant guidelines about those [[WP:Reliable sources|here]]), go ahead. But the [[WP:BURDEN|burden]] is on editors wanting to restore disputed content to verify it themselves.

:That's a problem. You need sources to support anything you add to a page. See [[WP:Verifiability]]. If you can find [[WP:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] that support your claim, feel free to add those to the article. If you don't know how to add sources, see [[WP:Citing sources]] for the relevant guidelines on that. Thank you.

Hello JeffSpaceman!
* The [[WP:NPP|New Pages Patrol]] is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
* We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Reviewers#Guidelines for granting|guidelines for granting]].
* Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
* Kindly read [[WP:NPP|the tutorial]] before making your decision, and feel free to post on the [[WT:NPPR|project talk page]] with questions.
* If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider [[Wikipedia:PERM/NPP|'''applying here''']].
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

== [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ben_Rector&diff=next&oldid=1212206902 I have a hard time believing this is Ben Rector] ==

As a hardcore Ben Rector fan I picked apart this edit a bit:

* Ben Rector never refers to himself as "Ben Rector", always just Ben. It's evident in all of his messages online, which usually starts with "Hey guys its me Ben"; see his newsletter or any social media post
* Ben never uses exclamation points, [https://www.instagram.com/heystephenday/p/CwVqh-VONdp/?img_index=1 except for ironic emphasis]
* This information is accurate; I was short on time when writing it's a very simple "statement, source, repeat" section, and it's pretty much impossible for me to misinterpret something when its just one source. Most of the second paragraph is a primary source, so even then it's his words, not mine. These statements are reaffirmed the same way across interviews when asked.
* Most of this section is just facts; "Jesus" ''is'' mentioned in those songs, and his children ''were'' born on that year. "information that isn't super accurate" is unlikely.
* His religion and his wife and kids are literally the only thing this guy cares about. "Isn't super noteworthy" is very out-of-pocket for him.
* Ben is on tour right now (opening for [[Dan and Shay]]), and is currently on a promotional run for a new single. He has better things to worry about at this time.
* Ben is ''not'' [[WP:BOLD]].

Then again, this IP is from the [[Nashville, Tennessee]] area, where Ben lives, which is very good evidence for the opposing side... a very curious edit. [[User:Panini!|<span style="color:#F40">Panini!</span>]] <span style="color:#F40">•</span> [[User talk:Panini!|🥪]] 19:38, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

:I appreciate this info! I really don't know much about Rector (I wasn't even familiar with his name before this came up on recent changes), so I figured it was the article subject with a COI.

Stephanie was/is very humble and didn't/ doesn't credit herself often. I have the original illustration here in the studio - would that be proof enough that she made it? I also have photos of Karl and Stephanie working on it. Am I to disclose she is my partner? does that disqualify her for being credited with her work because I made the edit?

::::::ok - I have only just joined as I believed I could add information which I know to be true and be of value and interest to others- I didn't intend to be a nuisance by editing pages randomly. However if an artwork is uncredited in the real world does that mean it will forever be uncredited in wiki ? [[User:Michael Nash Assoc|Michael Nash Assoc]] ([[User talk:Michael Nash Assoc|talk]]) 17:56, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::::If there are no reliable sources that support the credits for an artwork, then it will likely remain uncredited on Wikipedia. Articles only include material that is verifiable, and in this case there have been no reliable citations provided that support Stephanie as the credited artist. I don't think you're being a nuisance at all, and I'm not trying to come down on you -- in fact, I specifically stated that I don't want you to wind up being blocked. I'm sure the information you're adding is of value and interest to fans of the band, but the information needs to have sources that back it up or it will be removed. So to answer your question, that would pretty much be a "yes" -- if artwork does not have proper credits in the real world, then it will not receive proper credits on Wikipedia, since that would likely qualify as original research.

Quick Note on Pascal's Triangle Article Section

Hi,

Hope you're doing well. I've spotted a small issue in the Arbitrary Bases section I contributed to on the Pascal's Triangle page, following a recent revert you made. Oddly enough, this error doesn't seem to appear in any revision prior to that reversion, which is a bit puzzling given that the revert should technically have restored it to a previous error-free state. Here are the details, hoping you could help me sort it out:

Error on page is: "Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "http://localhost:6011/en.wikipedia.org/v1/":): {\displaystyle a}"

  • The offending code appears to be a "<math>a</math>" in the Arbitrary Bases section, where "a" is being formatted in LaTex.
  • Error shows up in Chrome and Safari and I tested on laptop and tablet, but not outside my LAN

Really appreciate the effort you put into maintaining the quality of content on here. Looking forward to resolving this together.

Cheers Twoxili (talk) 16:37, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I appreciate you reaching out about this issue on the article. I don't quite know how to fix this sort of error, though I'd be happy to drop a comment on the talk page of the article to reach out for help, if you think that could assist with this error. I'll leave the judgment up to you as to whether or not I should do that, though. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. JeffSpaceman (talk) 18:26, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks getting back to me so quickly. I appreciate your offer to help with the issue. I'm going to hold off for a bit and see if the problem resolves itself with the next edit. Your willingness to support is truly valued, and I might take you up on posting in the talk page if the issue remains.
