Hello, I'm CommanderWaterford. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Open Table Network—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. CommanderWaterford (talk) 08:42, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Hello, thanks for getting in touch. I don't understand why you've done this, or what you mean here by constructive. Could you give more detail please? AndyGordon (talk) 08:48, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * First of all you need to ping me, I am making hundreds of edits every hour, without pinging I can not take notice of it. As far as I see you removed several paragraphs including references without explaining sufficiently why in the Edit Summary. Thats all. CommanderWaterford (talk) 15:01, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * @CommanderWaterford I think there is some confusion here. You reverted a paragraph of text that I added today. I think you may have done this by mistake, as you're thinking that I had removed some text. Unfortunately I don't know what pinging means here - I'm guessing it's to do an @-mention I hope I have that right. AndyGordon (talk) 15:42, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

a query about 'Feminist views on transgender topics'
Hullo, I'm writing to you as the most recent editor of the page 'Feminist views on transgender topics'. The sentence:

"She later wrote The Empire Strikes Back: A Posttranssexual Manifesto,[36] a response to Raymond's Empire that became a foundational work in the field of transgender studies.[37]"

could be correct, or could need a comma, to make it:

"She later wrote The Empire Strikes Back: A Posttranssexual Manifesto,[36] a response to Raymond's Empire, that became a foundational work in the field of transgender studies.[37]"

which I have no way of knowing is what the writer intended, other than what seems to be the case from reading it. The question is: which work became the foundational work? If the former, would the following express that less ambiguously?

"She later wrote The Empire Strikes Back: A Posttranssexual Manifesto,[36] a response to Raymond's Empire, a foundational work in the field of transgender studies.[37]"

If the latter, then it needs that comma, doesn't it.

Nick Barnett (talk) 18:59, 16 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi Nick, I don't actually know what was meant. I haven't edited in this part of the page.  Reading it, it seems to me that the "Empire Strikes Back" was the one that became a foundational work.  And indeed the citation leads to the Stanford encyclopedia that says: "After leaving Olivia, Stone earned her doctorate under Donna Haraway at Santa Cruz, and in 1991 published a reply to Raymond and what would become the founding essay in transgender studies, “The Empire Strikes Back: A (post)transsexual manifesto” (Stryker 2008, 105, 124–5)."  I made an edit following your suggestion. AndyGordon (talk) 12:36, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

AfD formatting
Hi AndyGordon, I didn't know whether to mention this in the Women's Declaration International AfD directly, but did want to mention that according to WP:AFDFORMAT, you can e.g. use strike-through by enclosing a retracted statement between and   after the, as in "•  Delete Keep", which may be helpful to the closer of the discussion.

 * Dear @Beccaynr, thank you so much. I didn't know how to do that. I will try to make the edit. AndyGordon (talk) 17:05, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
