I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 17:40, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

August 2010
Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made&#32;to List of European countries and territories: you may already know about them, but you might find 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 was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. McLerristarr (Mclay1) (talk) 01:35, 4 August 2010 (UTC)


 * What was inappropriate about my revert? Chipmunkdavis (talk) 01:40, 4 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Please keep a conversation in one place. After I, and most other users, post a message on a talk page, we'll watch the page for replies. Nothing was wrong with your revert. If you read the message it simply says to place a message a the vandal's talk page (like the one I placed on yours, except different). The vandal may take no notice of the message but it allows other users to see how much they vandalise and tells administrators for how long they should be blocked. McLerristarr (Mclay1) (talk) 01:44, 4 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Apologies, thanks for the message.

Reflist
Hey, on List of European countries and territories and List of North American countries and territories you changed Reflist to. I just wanted to point out, in case you didn't know, that creates a two-columned reference list for long reference lists, it does not mark it as a second reference list. No worries though. McLerristarr (Mclay1) (talk) 11:32, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, whoops, sorry. Thanks for informing me. I will keep that in mind for future edits. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 11:43, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

Notice of Arbitration Decision
The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose, at their own discretion, sanctions on any editor working on pages broadly related to the Balkans if the editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. The committee's full decision can be read at Requests for arbitration/Macedonia. There was too much edit warring going on at Serbo-Croatian language. I'd advise you to read and understand this decision going forward. Courcelles 23:06, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Re: Talk:Defamation_of_religions_and_the_United_Nations

 * Ok, it's time to act. We've managed to fill an entire section with me asking what's wrong and him saying nothing.  This isn't going anywhere until a second editor has the balls to actually edit the article.  Azure Fury   (talk | contribs) 19:05, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

sovereign states sorting criteria
Sorry to bother here, but as you are a contributor to certain discussions at the List of sovereign states I would like to show you the recently compiled list of all proposals for sorting criteria so that you can express your opinion here. Thanks! Alinor (talk) 13:29, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

East Timor article
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Nick-D (talk) 11:09, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Cuisine of Brunei
Hello Chipmunkdavis. For your information: there's an existing article called Bruneian cuisine. I think the best solution (to prevent confusion) is redirecting/merging the Cuisine of Brunei and improving the content of Bruneian cuisine.

Notice of WP:ARBMAC
Please note that the article Serbo-Croatian language, Croatian language and other articles relating to the Balkans fall under the ruling of WP:ARBMAC. Note in particular ARBMAC, which states
 * "Any uninvolved administrator may, on their own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict if that editor fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, the expected standards of behavior, or the normal editorial process. The sanctions imposed may include blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; restrictions on reverts; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project.  Prior to any sanctions being imposed, the editor in question shall be given a warning with a link to this decision."

Repeated blanket reversions, repeatedly and knowingly restoring material with large amounts of poor English and grammatical errors, and repeated introduction of material rejected by consensus all fall below the expected standards of behaviour at this project. Kubura (talk) 23:28, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Categories and redirects
Regarding these edits, the categories absolutely belong on the redirect for the species and not on the article about the genus. They simply do not apply to the genus. Please be aware of this possibility in your future edits. --Stemonitis (talk) 16:40, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Oceania topic
Hi Davis,

I wanted to let you know that I have reverted your reorganization of Template:Oceania topic due to the extensive and highly controversial nature of the edit. On such a visible template, discussion on the template's talk page should take place before major alterations. I would be glad to participate in a discussion with you at that location if you are willing to enumerate the things you feel should be changed and why.

Rwanda - new peer review
Hi Chipmunkdavis,

Just to let you know, I've (hopefully) addessed the issues raised in the first peer review of Rwanda, so if you have time at all I'd be grateful if you'd have another look and let me know any new thoughts you may have on it. No probs if you're too busy though. The new peer review is at Peer review/Rwanda/archive3. Thanks a lot! &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 23:26, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Please see the discussion here and indicate whether you consent to mediation or not.

I've removed your speedy tag from this article, as it doesn't qualify under WP:CSD. Only articles which were deleted as a result of a WP:Deletion discussion (such as an AFD) are eligible for being speedily deleted under this rational. As far as I can tell, the only deletion discussion which has taken place on this material is at WP:Articles for deletion/International recognition of South Sudan which concluded that there was no consensus for deletion. If there is another AFD that I'm unaware of, feel free to re-add the tag. Otherwise, you'll need to file a AFD if you feel that the content should be deleted. Thanks!

Rwanda - testing waters for second FAC
Hi Chipmunk

I hope you're well. It's been a long time, but I may finally have a little more time to spend on Wiki so would like to try to push the Rwanda article forward again. I know you contributed to the first FAC and you're an expert on country articles so your advice would be valuable if you have a spare moment.

One of the points raised was that the history section was overlong and also unbalanced in having too manby paragraphs for the 1990s. I have therefore recently reduced its length from 9 to 5 paras, of which only one is for 1990 and beyond. Do you think it is now acceptable?

The other major sticking point as far as I could tell was the explanation of the Hutu/Tutsi distinction. Unfortunately I didn't get a clear idea of what people wanted with that one. It's a notoriously difficult issue to describe, not least because it is contentious as to what the terms actually mean. If you have any ideas as to additional or alternative points I could make on that topic in the lead/history/demographics section I'd also be grateful. Many thanks &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 23:07, 9 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Further to this, I have now put Rwanda back up for FAC. Please check it out and comment at WP:Featured article candidates/Rwanda/archive2 if you have the time. Thanks! &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 10:46, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Palestine is/is not a sovereign state
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is "Palestine is/is not a sovereign state". Thank you. –Spesh531, My talk, and External links 21:01, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

WP:ARBPIA notice
As a result of an arbitration case, the Arbitration Committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, broadly understood. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.


 * Any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict if, despite being warned, that editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process.
 * The sanctions imposed may include blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; bans on any editing related to the topic or its closely related topics; restrictions on reverts or other specified behaviors; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project.
 * Prior to any sanctions being imposed, the editor in question shall be given a warning with a link to this decision; and, where appropriate, should be counseled on specific steps that he or she can take to improve his or her editing in accordance with relevant policies and guidelines.
 * Discretionary sanctions imposed under the provisions of this decision may be appealed to the imposing administrator, the appropriate administrators' noticeboard (currently WP:AE), or the Committee.

These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.

Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.

This notice is only effective if given by an uninvolved administrator and logged here.

This is specicfally due to you being named as a disputant regarding Dispute resolution noticeboard Hasteur (talk) 23:11, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Modifs of Template:History of Georgia
Hi! I just saw that you edited that template, only to be reverted by User:GeorgianJorjadze. I'm trying to improve the template too, and posted a possible version of it on the talk page in order to reach some consensus. I think your changes are quite welcome too, and would like to suggest incorporating them into the template I am building. However, the same user that reverted you seems quite opposed to my proposal, without answering specific arguments. I am rather new at editing, so I would greatly appreciate if you could have a look at the debate so that we can work out possible changes. Thanks!--Susuman77 (talk) 18:26, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Yourself and a few editors appear to have reached a deadlock situation in a dispute at Template talk:History of Georgia.

Please read carefully the opening statement, and engage with others involved in a civil discussion, avoiding personal attacks as much as possible. Thank you - Wesley ☀ Mouse 09:22, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Meet-up: Editors from Malaysia
Hello! You might or might not have seen me around here as I've not been active in Wikipedia the past few months. Before leaving for NS, it was my intention to form a Malaysian user group. I'm still very much interested in forming the group. However, before forming the group, I would love to organize a meet-up between editors of the Malaysian editing community to test the waters and hear what you guys might have to say. To my knowledge, there has not been a Wikipedia meet-up in this country before. I don't mind organizing the meet-up but need to know if anyone is interested in joining the meet-up. So... please reply and let me know if you would be interested in joining a meet-up and your ideas/thoughts about a user group. Thank you.

TemplateData is here
Hey Chipmunkdavis

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Article Feedback Tool update
Hey Chipmunkdavis. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.

We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.

Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 21:49, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello Chipmunkdavis. I'm just letting you know that an Arbitration Case has been filed and you have been listed as a party. — Ched (talk) 08:32, 12 April 2021 (UTC)

Edit warring
Your recent editing history at Radio Free Asia shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CPCEnjoyer (talk • contribs) 09:38, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

April 2021
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Propaganda in the United States, you may be blocked from editing. BenkovacZrinjski (talk) 13:51, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

China-Taiwan articles case request declined
The arbitrators have voted to decline the case request you were a party to, China-Taiwan articles, for reasons including the dispute being a content dispute and because previous conduct dispute resolution had not been attempted. You can view the declined case request in this permalink. For the Arbitration Committee, Dreamy Jazz</i> talk to me &#124; my contributions 08:25, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia
Thanks for identifying the source of the material in your edit.

This type of edit does get picked up by Copy Patrol and a good edit summary helps to make sure we don't accidentally revert it. However, for future use, would you note the best practices wording as outlined at Copying_within_Wikipedia? In particular, adding the phrase "see that page's history for attribution" helps ensure that proper attribution is preserved.

I've noticed that this guideline is not very well known, even among editors with tens of thousands of edits, so it isn't surprising that I point this out to some veteran editors, but there are some t's that you need to be crossed. S Philbrick  (Talk)  14:16, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi S Philbrick, I have an awareness of the guideline, but did not know that the specific phraseology is needed. I was unaware of the existence of a Copy Patrol. I have dummy edited to fix this instance, but could you explain why the particular wording crosses a t that my edit summary did not in terms of preserving article history? CMD (talk) 14:29, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I think we ping now instead of using talkback templates. CMD (talk) 01:46, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The copy patrol tool identified a 72% match to this site. I recognize the site is a blog and the odds are high that the blog copied from Wikipedia as opposed to vice versa, but that's what triggered the review. then I noticed your edit summary which indicated that you picked up some of the text from another article, which of course is permitted but our guideline strongly encourages specific wording. -- S Philbrick (Talk)  12:57, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I will keep the specific wording in mind to ease your patrolling. CMD (talk) 13:06, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

April 2021
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Please, justify your reasons; not just label edits. --Pedro158 (talk) 04:01, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions topic area changes
In a process that began last year with WP:DS2021, the Arbitration Committee is evaluating Discretionary Sanctions (DS) in order to improve it. A larger package of reforms is slated for sometime this year. From the work done so far, it became clear a number of areas may no longer need DS or that some DS areas may be overly broad.

The topics proposed for revocation are:
 * Senkaku islands
 * Waldorf education
 * Ancient Egyptian race controversy
 * Scientology
 * Landmark worldwide

The topics proposed for a rewording of what is covered under DS are:
 * India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan
 * Armenia/Azerbaijan

Additionally any Article probation topics not already revoked are proposed for revocation.

Community feedback is invited and welcome at Arbitration/Requests/Motions. --Barkeep49 (talk) 16:59, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

 * First place goes to for improving  The Holocaust; very core, highly relevant; their work on bringing geographical balance to the article puts the topic in a whole different light. We also commend improvements to sourcing and prose
 * A close second place goes to for improving Education from an unstructured jumble into a well-sourced piece of instruction
 * Third prize goes to for improving  Donatello, a near five-fold expansion with great sourcing and fantastic imagery
 * A tie for fourth place goes to for improving Crime, for a strong improvement in sourcing
 * A tie for fifth place goes to for International law, improved by converting contextless listicles into a proper sourced prose

I am reaching out to you because of your previous participation in one of the discussions regarding the reliability and neutrality of HuffPost/Pink News/ProPublica as sources used on Wikipedia.

Currently, there is an ongoing issue with the Edelman Family Foundation section in the Joseph Edelman Wikipedia article. The section appears to be biased and lacks a balanced representation of the foundation's activities, as it primarily focuses on a single controversial donation while neglecting to mention the organization's numerous other significant contributions to various causes.

I would like to invite you to participate in the discussion on the BLP Noticeboard to address the concerns surrounding the section's neutrality and explore ways to improve its content. Llama Tierna (talk) 18:12, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
