About the NPPS…
I don't think I can actually complete it at the moment. I've dealt with personal issues and loss of motivation due to work so I'm afraid I don't know if I can continue it in my current state. I'm sorry for the false idea that I could continue it, suddenly my motivation just lapsed and I haven't been able to easily recover it. James-the-Charizard (talk to me!)

 * Good day. Thank you for informing. Take care of yourself and when you want to continues, just drop a note to me. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia  talk  01:22, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

Tech News: 2022-08
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes
 * Special:Nuke will now provide the standard deletion reasons (editable at MediaWiki:Deletereason-dropdown ) to use when mass-deleting pages. This was a request in the 2022 Community Wishlist Survey.
 * At Wikipedias, all new accounts now get the Growth features by default when creating an account. Communities are encouraged to update their help resources. Previously, only 80% of new accounts would get the Growth features. A few Wikipedias remain unaffected by this change.
 * You can now prevent specific images that are used in a page from appearing in other locations, such as within PagePreviews or Search results. This is done with the markup  . For example,.
 * Octicons-tools.svg There has been a change to the HTML of Special:Contributions, Special:MergeHistory, and History pages, to support the grouping of changes by date in the mobile skin. While unlikely, this may affect gadgets and user scripts. A list of all the HTML changes is on Phabricator.

Events
 * Community Wishlist Survey results have been published. The ranking of prioritized proposals is also available.

Changes later this week
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from . It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from . It will be on all wikis from (calendar).

Future changes
 * The software to play videos and audio files on pages will change soon on all wikis. The old player will be removed. Some audio players will become wider after this change. The new player has been a beta feature for over four years.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Toolforge's underlying operating system is being updated. If you maintain any tools there, there are two options for migrating your tools into the new system. There are details, deadlines, and instructions on Wikitech.
 * Administrators will soon have the option to delete/undelete the associated "talk" page when they are deleting a given page. An API endpoint with this option will also be available. This was a request from the 2021 Wishlist Survey.

Message to Cassiopeia concerning a mistaken identity
Hi, you sent my IP address a message about an apparent test entry in The History of Lego. I recently purchased this computer on eBay and I have never composed a Wikipedia entry of any kind. I found your message to be perplexing but in the end comprehensible. Thank you for attempting to sort things out. I am not sure who owned the computer at the time of the entry you referred to. 98.179.28.34 (talk) 06:46, 24 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Good day. Edit is tracked by the IP address regardless who edited Wikipedia. The message was more than 2 years ago and it was a test edit so that is nothing to be concerned about. I have sent you a welcome message on your talk page. Do check out the link to understand some Wikipedia guidelines so it would be a little easy if you want to edit Wikipedia article. Be well and be safe. Cassiopeia  talk  07:49, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Draft:André Pederneiras
Hi. There actually is already a mainspace article for André Pederneiras. However it was turned into a redirect because the original article didn't demonstrate much notability. I have pretty much created a new article from scratch for this subject and I have found he is far more significant and notable than what he was originally portrayed as in that article. Therefore could you please review this draft article and if it is ok, please help move the page to replace the redirect of André Pederneiras?

Thanks -Imcdc (talk) 15:06, 19 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi. Just checking to see if you had time to look into this? Thx -Imcdc (talk) 12:26, 22 February 2022 (UTC)


 * I will look at it either today or tmrw.19:42, 25 February 2022 (UTC)


 * ✅ review. Thank you for creating the page and your time spent. Be well and be safe. Cassiopeia  talk  01:03, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Features for new users coming soon (and mentors, like you, wanted!)
Hello. As you're currently listed as a host at the Teahouse, I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth  Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User  page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get  involved and help out directly with one of them. To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User  reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of  which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse  and elsewhere, and I've had just the one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days,  click here. If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as you already do at the Teahouse - then please consider signing up at Growth Team  features/Mentor list. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their  Preferences. Thank you! Nick Moyes (talk) 10:35, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Firstly, they will be offered a range of 'suggested edits', and encouraged to make simple improvements to pages that interest them. (Being  aware of this feature would be helpful for all Teahouse hosts if you're  likely to offer advice on tasks for them to start out doing.)
 * There's also a 'Your impact' box to show them how many people have seen the pages they've just edited.
 * Finally, each new user is randomly assigned a 'mentor' from a list of friendly, experienced editors, like yourself. If they get stuck, they can  ask a question directly to them via a Your mentor box, and hopefully get  a swift, friendly answer from that mentor.   Currently, this feature is given to 2% of new users, but it's set to  increase to around 10% in the very near future.


 * Good day. Thank you for the message. Happy to help and be one of the mentors. Be well and be safe. Cassiopeia  talk  01:05, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * That’s great news - thanks. Nick Moyes (talk) 09:09, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Need discussion - to gain consensus for changes
With this edit in mind, I encourage you to provide more substantive reasons for future reverts. See Don't revert due solely to "no consensus". Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 23:09, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Good day. The edit was done in Wikipedia page and not an article. Do seek discussion on talk page for word changes is the norm. Be well and be safe. Cassiopeia  talk  23:14, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Per Policies and guidelines: "Although most editors find prior discussion, especially at well-developed pages, very helpful, directly editing these pages is permitted by Wikipedia's policies. Consequently, you should not remove any change solely on the grounds that there was no formal discussion indicating consensus for the change before it was made." Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 23:33, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Bold is one thing in article but not in Wikipedia pages. Wikipedia pages do indicate the guidelines and not for any editor to remove or add or change the guidelines as it see fits. If bold in Wikipeidia pages then many guidelines especially notability guidelines would easily be changed. Even one word changed/added/removed is always need discussion in talk pages. Discussion should be in place as per norm. I have place my comment and please wait for other editors to join in. Be safe and be well.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  23:39, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Regarding "If bold in Wikipeidia pages then many guidelines especially notability guidelines would easily be changed," I think your fear is misplaced. If the bold edit is not well founded or insufficiently explained then it will quickly be reverted (with, I would hope, a substantive edit summary). Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 00:01, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * My quote is from Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines#Bold. Do you have a source that supports your understanding that bold edits are prohibited in Wikipedia space? Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 00:01, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Even so, I disagree with your changes and when dispute happens, talk page is the venue. Let the talk page discussion run and an uninvolved editor will close the discussion in due time for the outcome. Stay safe and best.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk
 * And that brings us back to my original post (above). You had a substantive reason to revert and should have put that in your edit summary. Thank you for hearing me out and considering my points. Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 00:49, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Did mention es on discussion on talk page. Good to know all work out between both of us. Be well and be safe.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  01:06, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

In regards to deletions
Hey, in regards to the deletions for Leah McCourt and Sinead Kavanaugh, I was just going off the criteria that Bellator WMMA was notable starting 2021.

Found here: HeinzMaster (talk) 23:49, 25 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Here Draft:Sinead Kavanagh as I moved to draft page. I have withdrew Mc Court nomination. Yes Bellator (women) as top tier started 2021 but Kavanagh still needs at least 3 fights under top tier. When she is notable we could move her page to main space. As for Mr VanZant, even he doest have 3 fights under Bellator, he just fought for the MM title that is why he is notable and reveiwed. Be well and safe.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  00:08, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Kavanagh fought for the title last year, that's the only reason I made the page for her. And she was also top 10 in Fight Matrix. HeinzMaster (talk) 00:32, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
 * OK. Saw the Matrix rannking. Moved back.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  00:43, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

 * When searching for edits by change tags, e.g. in page history or user contributions, there is now a dropdown list of possible tags. This was a request in the 2022 Community Wishlist Survey.
 * Mentors using the Growth Mentor dashboard will now see newcomers assigned to them who have made at least one edit, up to 200 edits.

UFC 275
You clearly have not read the articles. The one I used in fact uses the words “set” and “confirmed.” The one you keep reverting to indicates contracts are not signed and bout is therefore not official. Please self revert and read more than the headlines before changing sources. Sdpdude9 (talk) 03:34, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * So is the source indicated in the Announced bout section. Contract is not signed means not official.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  03:37, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

“ contracts have not been signed at this time.” - Direct quote from the source you keep reverting to. Indicates bout is not official.

“ Valentina Shevchenko has her next assignment with Taila Santos set as her opponent with the title fight expected to takes place at UFC 275 on June 11… Multiple people with knowledge of the promotion’s plans confirmed the news” - My source

You’re reverting to a source that directly contradicts your reason for using it. You’re only reading the headline. Sdpdude9 (talk) 03:42, 2 March 2022 (UTC)


 * pls keep the discussion in one place and not on your and my talk page. Since I have started the discussion in your talk page and you have replied then keep it there.

hello! I didn't update that much but in your previous topic it was saying that Islam Makhachev is #4 lightweight but he fought recently with bobby green and he won the fight so he surpassed Beneil Dariush and become #3 lightweight, that is the only change I made you can make sure and check it from here:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_UFC_fighters#Rankings — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.79.199.35 (talk) 06:08, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Jamahal Hill


Hello, Cassiopeia. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Jamahal Hill".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
