My Editing got deleted and received message from your side
My editing git deleted for Shaktimaan page, I am true fan of Shaktimaan and written what is truth. Although I have not given any reference but in future I won't miss to add reference. Please let my added part for Shaktimaan page be there. SJSudhir (talk) 04:25, 9 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi! Wikipedia is not a fan website and needs reliable and verifiable sources – the links I gave on your talk page will show you what you need to do to ensure your contributions are not removed. ClaudineChionh (talk) 23:22, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

Congratulations!
I just noticed that you have been editing Wikipedia for 20 years! That is amazing. I also see that you are more active recently. Thank you very much. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  04:46, 31 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I haven't always had enough free time for Wikipedia but it's great to see how far it's come in twenty years. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 04:49, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Women in Red
Hi there, Claudine, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to have a new member with access to library resources and an interest in adding biographies of women from Australia and Asia. Although you have created a number of interesting articles, you have not yet started any biographies of women. You might therefore find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. You will find many interesting red link lists in our Redlist index. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 11:57, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

And congratulations on first editing Wikipedia over 20 years ago. By coincidence, I see that tomorrow I will have been editing for 15 years. Seems like yesterday I was working on my first articles. Time flies!--Ipigott (talk) 12:08, 1 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I did create an article for Jean Littlejohn for Ada Lovelace Day and that reminded me how satisfying it was to start new articles. I have been perusing the redlists but I'll have to be careful not to get wiki burnout as I have in the past. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 12:17, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

MOS:DATETIES to France
Hi! You’ve recently altered the date format in “Global security law proposal”. Is there really a strong preference for either date format in France? AFAIK France ain’t particularly anglophone. I’m just curious where/how you drew your conclusions from, for future reference, you know, because I gotta admit I changed the date format, too, when I revamped the article in April. Thanks for your response! ‑‑ K (🗪&#8239; | &#8239;✍) 17:34, 5 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for following up! To be clear, the date-month-year format isn't specifically "Anglophone". Rather, the month-date-year format is an outlier peculiar to the United States. You can see the dmy format being used on, for example, Wikipédia en français <>, the French government, Le Monde, and Le Figaro, just to name a few.

2021 firefighter protests
i didnt put sources in the covid protests addition because i dont know how to add references and i was hoping someone else would put them in for me because i thought everyone knew about that. here are my sources can you add the addition back and the sources for me please. https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2021/10/28/1049946881/nyc-firefighters-vaccine-mandate-protest-new-york-city https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/25/nyregion/nypd-police-covid-vaccine-mandate-deblasio.html also i know ill sound like an ass for asking this but can you get someone write an whole wiki article about this event because i dont feel like reading more then 2 articles about this and i want to know a summarized version of events. theres other news articles about this. thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.165.141.150 (talk) 05:41, 10 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Hey thanks for following up on this! There is (usually) no rush to add content to Wikipedia and I would recommend spending more time learning about how Wikipedia works and collecting good sources before diving right in and adding unsourced material. I'm not the only editor who will remove unsourced statements so if you want something to stay published it's better to get your sources ready first – or wait for someone else to add it!

Thank you!
Thank you for replaying my question about references and WP:NACTOR :D And i want something from you :D Can you tell me whether Draft:Penny O'Brien has a good WP:NACTOR ? It's still not finished like it's now 15% finished? But can you check it for me :D thank you again! Mac O&#39;Donnell (talk) 12:20, 11 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for persevering and for checking in! First things first, I am an ordinary editor, not a new article reviewer, and I can help Wikipedians find information but I have no expertise in working on articles about actors, film/TV, or games. O'Brien has clearly worked on notable projects, but whether she warrants her own Wikipedia article depends partly on how big her roles were on those, and I can't answer that, having not played RDR2 or finished watching For All Mankind. I also don't know whether the sources you use are reliable as I don't follow entertainment or gaming media closely enough. I think it would be a good idea to visit the relevant WikiProjects to read their guidelines and maybe post your questions on their talk pages: WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers, WikiProject Film, and maybe WikiProject Spaceflight.
 * On another note, you say on your user page that you forgot your password on your "other account". If you had trouble logging in to Wikipedia, you really ought to try resetting your password before creating a new account. If you really can't recover your other account, it might be helpful to make a note on your current user page about any other accounts you have previously used.

Marriage Postal Survey
Hello ClaudineChionh, thanks you for your review of what was my first attempt to edit Wikipedia.

I've used Wikipedia many times as a reference as I believe factual accounts are vital as reference material. Occasionally I have thought an edit might be useful to the overall accuracy of a particular content but I suppose, being busy at my job, I always put it off.

Today I had a discussion at my village where certain facts were exchanged about the Postal Marriage Survey and the topic of follow up was the participation rate of voters across the various age groups. I was asked to check to provide the answer for our follow up meeting. So where did I go - to Wikipedia. But to no avail, that information wasn't to be found.

But in my search I found what I merely saw as a mis-categorised entry under 'vandalism' when clearly it was an everyday means of aerial advertising seen regularly used by everyone from marriage proposals to 'drink Pepsie'.

To address the specific matter of the stats I searched the Australian Bureau of Statistics website, extracted the date, extrapolated the figures and simply posted the ABS words to Wikipedia. At the same time I merely replaced the words from 'vandalism' category to 'Advertising'.

I characterized both these entries as minor edits, one that I believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute.

Being a first time user of Wikipedia editing I'm confused as to why my changes which are to accuracy have been found to be unacceptable. Even further, am I right that your refusal classifies my edits as 'vandalism'?

I would greatly ask if you could assist me in clarifying the matter please? Regards

 * Hello Brian, and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. It's true that I do spend a fair amount of time watching articles that may attract controversial changes or outright vandalism. I assure you that I do not think your edits constitute vandalism, but merely brushing up against some of Wikipedia's many rules and standards that can be opaque to new editors.


 * There were a couple of issues with . First, it included text that was directly copied from the ABS report of the survey. While you correctly added a reference to the ABS website, you should not copy or closely paraphrase text from another source – not even a few sentences – unless you clearly indicate that it is a quotation.


 * Furthermore, your inference of the survey results from the participation rate is not supported by the ABS report you cite, and could be seen as manipulating the figures to imply the opposite result from the survey result. If you have another source that does support these figures, you must cite it. As a tertiary source, Wikipedia summarises primary research but does not publish original research, so reinterpreting the official results of the survey is beyond our remit.


 * No one has reverted, but whether the "NO" skywriting campaign should be categorised as "advertising" or "vandalism" is a subjective matter, not incontrovertible fact. Changes along these lines should be brought up on the article's talk page, where you may test whether other editors agree or disagree with your change.


 * Wikipedia is a community of practice that has developed its own rules and jargon over twenty years. In Wikipedia language a "minor" edit is a correction of obvious spelling, grammar, typographical, or layout error that does not change the meaning of the article or section and could not possibly be disputed by its readers and editors. While the two interpretations you introduced may seem minor to you, they are interpretations, and therefore do not count as "minor" changes as Wikipedia defines these.


 * I hope this doesn't discourage you from continuing to contribute to Wikipedia – you are welcome here, and while Wikipedia has a lot of policies and guidelines, the community is here to support anyone who wants to help build an encyclopedia. Article talk pages are the best places to discuss the content of specific articles, but please do visit the Teahouse if you have any general questions about editing Wikipedia.

Rejecting edits
I'm looking at World Health Organization, and I see that you reverted an edit, using RedWarn, and that you left Template:Uw-disruptive1 as a warning on the editor's talk page.

The edit added this text: as with "recognizing the vital importance of health as a factor in the promotion of conditions of stability and well-being" as its convenance goal.

The edit also added a citation (WHO, Member States) to the next sentence, which was previously uncited and which is the kind of sentence that we normally want to be supported by an inline citation.

What is it about this edit made you think that adding relevant, on-topic information and a citation to a reliable source is "unconstructive" or "disruptive"? WhatamIdoing (talk) 19:53, 13 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi In  by  and, I was primarily concerned with undoing the clumsy phrasing that those edits introduced (such as in the phrase you quoted) – it was primarily a matter of written style, not citations. You will see in  that one of Medupdate's edits had introduced extra line breaks, which may give the appearance of adding or changing the   that followed, but the ref was not in fact added, removed, or changed. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 23:05, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
 * A single line break is something that MediaWiki software handles automagically, without readers even knowing that it's there. Only people looking at the wikitext source code would even know that it was there, and if a whitespace problem with no visible effect on the page really bothers you, then you know where the edit button is, and you can fix that without reverting the rest, just like we all did back in the day.
 * Clumsy phrasing is not normally something that earns people a warning about being "disruptive" and "unconstructive".
 * I also invite you to look at that diff a little more closely. In Medupdate's version, there was a citation at the end of the sentence saying "Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, it has 194 member states and it has six main regional offices and 150 offices worldwide".  In the version you reverted to, there was no citation.  What happened to the citation that said   when you reverted this supposedly "disruptive" and "unconstructive" addition of a source?

Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 22
<div style="border-style:solid; border-color:#606060; background-color:#f8f8f8; border-width:2px; text-align:left; padding:7px; border-radius:1em; box-shadow:0.1em 0.1em 0.5em rgba(0,0,0,0.75);" class="plainlinks"> Hello everyone, and welcome to the 22nd issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter. This issue will be covering new and updated user scripts from the past seven months (June through December 2021).

Got anything good? Tell us about your new, improved, old, or messed-up script here!

Featured script
 * LuckyRename, by Alexis Jazz, is this month's featured script. LuckyRename makes requesting file moves easier, and automates the many steps in file moving (including automatic replacement of existing usage). Give it a shot!

Updated scripts
 * SD0001: hide-reverted-edits has been updated to take into account changes in reversion tools like Twinkle and RedWarn.
 * Writ Keeper: massRollback.js has added a rollback-some option (missed in last issue).
 * ClaudineChionh: SkinSwitcher (a fork and update of Eizen's script) provides an options menu/toolbox/toolbar allowing users to view a given page in MediaWiki's default skins.

Pending requests
 * Mass-patrolling at Special:NewPages
 * Taking up the mantle of an almost completed peer review javascript bot
 * Restore the Wikipedia Citation Tool for Google Books
 * Autohighlighting specific characters (Greek)
 * ...and many more, all available at User scripts/Requests

Miscellaneous
 * User scripts/Ranking is a sortable table of Wikipedia's thousand-or-so most commonly used scripts; it includes their author, last modification date, installation count, and sometimes a short description.
 * Toolhub is a community managed catalog of software tools used in the Wikimedia movement. Technical volunteers can use Toolhub to document the tools that they create or maintain. All Wikimedians can use Toolhub to search for tools to help with their workflows and to create lists of useful tools to share with others.

New scripts
 * Ahecht:
 * draft-sorter sorts AfC drafts by adding WikiProject banners to their talk pages. It supersedes User:Enterprisey/draft-sorter, adding a few features and fixing some bugs.
 * massmove, a modified User:Plastikspork/massmove.js that adds a link to the left column, allows adding and removing both prefixes and suffixes.
 * watchlistcleaner removes missing pages (redlinks), redirects, pages you haven't edited recently, and/or pages you've never edited from your watchlist.
 * Awesome Aasim:
 * Infiniscroll adds infinite scrolling to user contributions, page histories, and log pages.
 * Quick create allows for the fast creation of red-linked pages with two clicks.
 * Caburum:
 * UTCclock adds a clock displaying the current UTC time.
 * Chlod:
 * CopiedTemplateEditor, mainly for CCI case handlers, allows graphically editing a talk page's copied templates.
 * DaxServer:
 * BooksToSfn adds a portlet link in Visual Editor's source mode editing, in main namespace articles or in the user's Sandbox. When clicked, it converts one inside a   tag block into an.
 * FlightTime:
 * OneClickArchiver is a custom version of User:Technical_13/Scripts/OneClickArchiver which doesn't prepend Clear to the top of each section on the archive page.
 * Jon Harald Søby:
 * diffedit enables editing directly from viewing a diff "when, for instance, you notice a tiny mistake deep into an article, and don't want to edit the entire article and re-find that one line to fix that tiny mistake".
 * warnOnLargeFile warns you if you're about to open a very large file (width/height >10,000px or file size >100 MB) from a file page.
 * JPxG:
 *  PressPass  adds a collection of tools for Newspapers.com including configurable automatic citation generation in five different formats.
 * CurrentSwitcher gives you links on the contribs page to hide duplicate entries, current revisions, rollbacks, huggles, twinkles, and redwarns.
 * TrackSum lets you automatically sum the lengths of tracks in templates like track listing and get total runtimes.
 * Nardog:
 * CopySectLink adds a button to copy the unencoded page title or section path next to each heading.
 * IPAInput allows you to type in IPA symbols by directly looking at an IPA key like Help:IPA/English and clicking on the symbols.
 * TemplatePreviewGuard warns when you try to use "Preview page with this template" with a page that doesn't transclude the template.
 * NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh:
 * ContribsTabVector adds "Contributions" and "Statistics" tabs to user and user talk pages on the Vector skin.
 * CopyvioChecker adds a "CopyvioCheck" tab to all pages, except Special (Vector skin only).
 * LiveDiffLink is a version of Equazcion's LiveDiffLink which shows a wikilink instead of a URL.
 * QuickDiff (by OneTwoThreeFall at Fandom) lets you quickly view any diff link on a wiki, whether on Recent Changes, contribs pages, history pages, the diff view itself, or elsewhere. For more information, view its page on Fandom.
 * Novem Linguae:
 * DetectSNG scans a list of 1,600 SNG keywords and displays them at the top of the article.
 * NotSoFast highlights recently created articles in the new pages feed, to discourage patrolling them too quickly.
 * UserRightsDiff concisely displays what perm was added or removed when viewing Special:UserRights.
 * VoteCounter displays a rough count of keeps and deletes at XFDs, RFCs, etc.
 * WatchlistAFD automatically watchlists the AFDs of any pages you AFC accept or NPP patrol, to help you calibrate your reviewing.
 * P.T.Đ:
 * TwinkleMobile enables Twinkle on mobile view (Minerva skin).
 * Qwerfjkl:
 * editRedirect adds a → link after redirects to edit them.
 * RegExTypoFix, a script for fixing typos, is a wrapper for User:Joeytje50/RETF.js.
 * talkback creates links after user talk page links like this: | |  (with the first linking to the user's contributions, and the latter giving the option of sending a talkback notice). It also adds a [] link next to section headers.
 * Rublov:
 * diff-link shows "copy" links on history and contributions pages that copy an internal link to the diff (e.g., Special:Diff/1026402230) to your clipboard when clicked.
 * Rummskartoffel:
 * auto-watchlist-expiry automatically watchlists every page you edit for a user-definable duration (you can still pick a different time using the dropdown, though).
 * generate pings generates the wikitext needed to ping all members of a category, up to 50 editors (the limit defined by MediaWiki).
 * share ExpandTemplates url allows for easy sharing of your inputs to Special:ExpandTemplates. It adds a button that, when clicked, copies a shareable URL to your exact invocation of the page, like this. Other editors do not need to have this script installed in order to access the URL generated.
 * show tag names shows the real names of tags next to their display names in places such as page revision histories or the watchlist.
 * Tol:
 * VisualEditor Citation Needed adds a button (under "Insert") in VisualEditor to add a citation needed tag.
 * Venkat TL:
 * ColourContrib color-codes the user contributions page so that pages you've edited last are sharply distinguished from pages where another editor was the last to edit the page.
 * Vukky:
 * StatusChanger is a fork of Enterprisey's Status Changer, which adds a UI to the script. (using Morebits, so you'll need to have Twinkle enabled to use it).

All in all, some very neat scripts were written in these last few months. Hoping to see many more in the next issue -- drop us a line on the talk page if you've been writing (or seeing) anything cool and good. Filling in for DannyS712, this has been jp×g. Take care, and merry Christmas! jp×g 07:30, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
