Why u undo Dargah Tajushshariya
You have any problem to this article please contact us first Annuxsing (talk) 16:51, 21 April 2022 (UTC)


 * There does not need to be an article about a guy's tomb. The rest of the article was just a biography of the guy. I merged the articles; I didn't undo it.

Hello, I'm Telenovelafan215. An edit that you recently made to Perdiendo el juicio seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. In Spanish titles, you should capitalize only the first word and any proper nouns.

Chakma people
Thanks for the copyedit, but I don't understand the removal of paragraphs, some of which are having sources. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 15:42, 29 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I might've accidentally done that. If you would give me a moment to figure it out, I can fix it.
 * Asparagusus (talk) 15:48, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
 * @Fylindfotberserk Okay, I've restored the paragraphs. I'm not sure why that happened, sorry!

April blitz bling
Congrats, and thanks for your work on the blitz! In case you were wondering, BTW, I discounted your wordcount totals a bit because I didn't feel that your copyedits were quite complete – the very large article Latin America would have been a lot for anyone to finish in a week, and I noticed that you were still making copy edits to it after the conclusion of the blitz. I appreciate that you did keep at it – but to be fair to everyone else, I wasn't comfortable approving the full wordcount.

I'm glad to see that you've signed up for the May Drive. The month-long event should allow more time to work on articles without being rushed. – Reidgreg (talk) 16:35, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! I’ll take that into account. I didn’t really understand what I was doing until afterward. I’m excited for the drive!

Copy-editing of Antarctica
Thanks for copyediting Antarctica! Allow me to give some feedback. Antarctica is a featured article, which makes it quite difficult to copy-edit. The instructions for copy-editors on the WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Requests even indicate this should only be done by experienced copy-editors. One of the most important tasks of a copy-editor is making sure the text doesn't change its meaning. With jargon, this is sometimes difficult, and it's okay to make an occasional mistake there (for instance changing species diversity into specific diversity, which signalled to me that the term is jargon and needs to be wikilinked).

However, there were a few instances where the meaning of plain-English sentences changed:
 * There is some evidence that surface warming in Antarctica is due to human greenhouse gas emissions -> There is evidence that surface warming in Antarctica is due to human greenhouse gas emissions, (the new sentence puts more confidence in this statement)
 * The ice shelves of Antarctica were probably first seen in 1820 -> The ice shelves of Antarctica were possibly first seen in 1820. This makes is less likely to be true.

You chose to expand sentences with words that weren't always needed, mostly adding the word Antarctica, when that was clear from context. Shorter sentences are typically easier to understand, so I wouldn't have done this. A great place to learn about making sentences clearer by condensing them smartly is User:Tony1/Redundancy exercises: removing fluff from your writing.

Also make sure not to mark large copy-edits as minor, which is only for edits that nobody will likely disagree with (such as the correction of typos and syntax errors).

Good luck with further copy-edits. You may want to ask more experienced editors to look over another of you copy-edits to get additional feedback. Femke (talk) 17:48, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Your review of Famigo (entertainment company)
While I think that you are correct, that it is notable, I wish you had pushed back on the WP:CITEKILL and noticed that https://holanews.com/lanzan-una-plataforma-que-pondra-en-contacto-a-artistas-y-seguidores-2/ is a 404 error. It certainly has a better than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion process. 🇺🇦 Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:10, 18 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for that! I only noticed the one I deleted because of the suffix -pedia, which led me to believe that it was user-based (which it is, as far as I can read).

Your review of Draft:GMT Token
Hi Asparagusus,

I apologize for the disturbance but an editor was asking why you declined their article on the teahouse. I looked at their draft and it had no comment about it. Is their a reason for this or was it just a mistake? Thanks, ✶Mitch  199811✶  23:48, 20 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I am very sorry, I missed a part of the decline message. ✶Mitch  199811✶  00:30, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
