Hi there,

I made quite a few edits to Peter Tarlow's page, only to find that it reverted back to the original. Can you please explain what is happening? LRosenzweig (talk) 21:20, 24 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @User:LRosenzweig Contributions to Wikipedia require independent sources to verify the accuracy of the information written. Check out WP:Verifiability and WP:Sources for more information. Unsourced information to a article about a living person is almost always reverted. Thank you, Thecowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  22:13, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The changes I am making are on behalf of the person who is being described. Some are restructuring the article. He has no idea who put the information in the entry. In addition, it says that he has 2 children and a stepchild. I tried to correct that to 3 children per his request. Obviously there will be no source for that. 96.255.242.175 (talk) 22:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Please do not edit the article if you personally know the person, this is a conflict of interest. WP:COI will detail it. Thecowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  22:49, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi I made an edit to Wikipedia page Ari Shaffir
I wrote that Ari Shaffir was an American Girl. I thought this was really funny and not wrong at all. Why was my edit undone? 193.42.0.238 (talk) 02:10, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Disputed
The "Mississippi Lofts and Adler Theatre" page is incorrect. They now operate as two entirely separate entities and functions and this page needs to be split into two respective pages. You have a performance art venue tagged as an apartment which is completely inaccurate.

Mississippi Lofts: https://premierhousingmanagement.com/housing-portfolio/property-list/mississippi-lofts/ Adler Theatre: https://davenportlive.com/the-adler-theatre/

It is not ok to keep these two separate entities as one combined page. 67.131.172.2 (talk) 20:23, 4 April 2024 (UTC)


 * The information on the article is for the historical registry of the buildings. It is not meant to be about the business itself but about the history between the Theatre and the Lofts. Thecowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  20:33, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Then WHY IS IT CONNECTED TO OUR BUSINESS PAGE!? 217.180.230.2 (talk) 22:05, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
 * We can’t control what google puts on the business page. Stop complaining the Wikipedia and complain to your boss or to Google. It shows up as the first when searched because that’s what people want to know about the location. Thecowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  03:34, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Bokator
Hi Thecowboygilbert! I've noticed you added a bibliography to the Bokator article, but it seems to be unrelated to Bokator. Could that be a mistake? Thank you in advance! Pierrevang3 (talk) 15:30, 9 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @Pierrevang3, It is in reference to the statement, "During the era of French rule, sporadic outbreaks of violence, led by Buddhist monks, challenged French authority". There is a more detailed section on Buddhism in Cambodia. Thecowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  16:12, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

sortable table
Can you provide information on sortable table? Is there a reason you would not recommend it apart from having to presumably alter reference formatting? ThanksFourLights (talk) 09:30, 27 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @FourLights, It breaks up the citation and breaks the shortened footnotes that you use for inline citations. You put the important information in specific parts of the table, it doesn’t work with or  at all. I only see it used on sole bibliography pages. If you use it, it’ll be a mess for people who work on citation cleanup and citation fixes.   Cowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  15:11, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Reardon Building and why I didn't revert
Hi @Cowboygilbert, the reason is that there has been a huge number of problems with the blocked editor's sources, which is the main reason why they are blocked. There has been a team of editors working with them to mentor them on proper sourcing; this has been going on for many years (check their user talk and its archives.) If we keep fixing things for them, rather than allowing the editor to learn how to properly source, the problem may never be resolved. There have also been issues with Edit Requests being fulfilled that simply duplicates the original source problems. Please understand that there is a long history here. Thanks and best, Netherzone (talk) 17:57, 30 April 2024 (UTC)


 * @Netherzone, It’s good to redirect the editor to a solution and show them instead of keeping them in the dark. I didn’t see any mention from you to ask the other editor look in the source and make sure that their citation page numbers are correct. I do see that there is a long history with the editor but there can be other teaching methods by showing and explaining the issue to them and not leaving them without help to the issue that keeps getting reverted. Thank you, Cowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  19:23, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much for your quick response; to shed some more light on the matter, I did not redirect the editor to a solution, because they are not in the dark. They have been told time and again by multiple editors (including myself) and administrators about these issues that have been going on for years. Sources have been misrepresented and many errors made that have caused a huge time sink for multiple editors. There is a team of us who have been teaching and mentoring them for years. If you like you can look deeper into their talk page archives, the blocks and ANIs, their individual article talk pages, COI/UPE, etc. Thanks for your concern though, and happy editing. Netherzone (talk) 20:56, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
 * @Netherzone; Ah, I see now. Thank you for bringing this up to speed for me. I could tell it was an issue but did not know it has been a long time of trying to redirect the editor and teach them. If you need any help from me to try to help the editor, you can reach out to me through my talk page. Thank you, Cowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  22:59, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Rollback
Hi Cowboygilbert. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Fastily 00:21, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Being granted rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or Ultraviolet. It just adds a [Rollback] button next to a page's latest live revision - that's all. It does not grant you any additional "status" on Wikipedia, nor does it change how Wikipedia policies apply to you.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear and unambiguous cases of vandalism only . Never use rollback to revert good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war, and it should never be used in a content-related dispute to restore the page to your preferred revision. If rollback is abused or used for this purpose or any other inappropriate purpose, the rights will be revoked.
 * Use common sense. If you're not sure about something, ask!

I hope this is better. Yours. Tkaras1 (talk) 02:27, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * If you add information or change information in an article, it’s common courtesy to put down a source. I removed your edits because you had removed sources without explaining or putting down new ones. It just creates hassle for others that actually do citation work. Thank you, Cowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  02:31, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * As well, @Tkaras1, make sure to use citation templates instead of leaving bare links. Cowboygilbert  -  (talk) ♥  02:32, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Can you show me how to do the citation template? Tkaras1 (talk) 02:43, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
