Translation
Please don't machine translate articles. It produces inaccurate results and frequently the result is incomprehensible. Your translation of 21 Baza Lotnicza - which you then moved to 21 Lotnicza Baza - although undoubtedly well intentioned, simply led to the article being deleted as gibberish. If you'd left it to the people at WP:Pages needing translation into English, it might have been translated by someone with the necessary knowledge and we would still have it.

James Clark Ross
Many thanks for reverting that IP on James Clark Ross. The edit was unpleasant, conspicuous, and undoubtedly vandalism, and the IP had already received a templated warning for another edit, so should certainly have received another for this one. I've accordingly issued a level 3 warning. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:25, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Attempting to Revise Company Page Post Rebrand & Page Keeps Getting Taken Down
Hello,

I would very much appreciate some assistance in setting up a new page and confirming that the page remains on Wikipedia and is not taken down after it is created. We've attempted to create a new page for our rebranded company several times today and after a few minutes, the page is gone. Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

Vandalism on Lincoln Academy (Newcastle, Maine)
I would like to report vandalism on the page Lincoln Academy (Newcastle, Maine). All of my edits were unjustly removed by a user under the name Fini Opus. Please see talk page of said article.

Thank you, 132ARb6558 (talk) 13:20, 4 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I have the reverted the edits, the sources you cited appear to be reliable. --Danski454 (talk) 16:31, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

Danski454 Would it be necessary to put a semi-protection on this article, or are there other requirements that need to be met first?

Thanks,

132ARb6558 (talk) 23:17, 4 July 2018 (UTC)


 * The vandalism does not appear to have continued, however semi-protection would be unlikely to be applied even if it were, since semi-protection is usually only applied when a page is vandalised by multiple new or unregistered accounts. --Danski454 (talk) 16:37, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Glencoe Massacre
There's been a recent addition to the article about including Hendersons - I think it was added, then removed and you may have then added it again. I've taken it out and explained why on the Article talk Page.

I extensively rewrote this article, because I felt it was an interesting topic and I enjoy the challenge, so I did a lot of research. I have not found any reference to the Henderson's in any account. There is no mention of them on any of the memorials commemorating it.

That doesn't mean it doesn't exist - but if so, I'd like to see references, not simply those that appear on the Henderson clan Wikipedia page. There's also a lot of nonsense talked about clans and septs (as explained in part of the rewritten article).

I've no objection to adding stuff, Wikipedia is a collaborative workspace - but I've spent a lot of time on this article making sure everything can be sourced from third party materials, including accounts of the 1695 Parliamentary Commission. So before we add stuff that doesn't appear in any of the sources, I'd like a reference and if it is going to be added, it doesn't belong in the lead paragraph.

Hope that makes sense.

 * I did not re-add any material that you removed, my only edit was reverting vandalism, by reinstating an infobox and removing a reference to Hollywood in the lead. See Special:Diff/847328422 --Danski454 (talk) 15:58, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi Danksi, Thank you for your message. I am not sure where to write a response so I will do it here. The changes I made reflect the official will of the company, and as it is our page (created and maintained by us) we would like to have these changes made. They may seem silly but it is part of a corporate event.

Rollback and reviewer granted
Hello Danski454. Your account has been [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A granted] the "rollbacker" and "pending changes reviewer" user rights. These user rights allow you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes and quickly revert the edits of other users.


 * Rollback user right
 * Please keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin).


 * Pending changes reviewer user right
 * The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection enabled is located at Special:StablePages. You may find the following pages useful to review:
 * Reviewing pending changes, the guideline on reviewing.
 * Pending changes, the summary of the use of pending changes.
 * Protection policy, the policy determining which pages can be given pending changes protection by administrators.

Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of reviewer or rollback. If you no longer want either of these user rights, contact me and I'll remove it, alternatively you can leave a request on the administrators' noticeboard. Happy editing!

Help with Winnipeg Table Hockey League Wikipedia page
Hello Danski454,

Thank you for your recent help on the Winnipeg Table Hockey League Page a few days ago. Since then it has been edited by other editors but in my opinion they removed too much of the original article.

Below listed are headings in the table of contents and the related content that were removed and what I believe should be re-added to this Wiki page for the reasons listed underneath each heading in bold:

1. Game

Various models of the game are used. Current models include Coleco, Super Chexx, Stiga, Munro, Carleco, Benej, Aristospel, Irwin Power Play 2, NHL Ice FX, Gretzky's Overtime, Cresta, Perma and Eagle.

Super Chexx, Stiga had citations associated with them linking them to their respective Wikipedia pages.

It is important to show the kind of equipment that is used especially when 2 of the games can be linked to other Wikipedia pages.

2. Rules

1. Players Code of Conduct 1.1. All players shall conduct themselves in a fair and sporting manner at all times. Table hockey is a sport to be played with proper consideration for fairness, ethics and respect. 2. Game Models 2.1. Various models of the game can be used. Current models include Coleco, Super Chexx, Stiga, Munro, Carleco, Benej, Aristospel, Irwin Power Play 2, NHL Ice FX, Gretzky's Overtime, Cresta, Perma and Eagle. 3. Matches 3.1 Matches last five (5) minutes. If the score is tied after (5) minutes the game will remain in a tie. 3.2. Time runs even if the puck is out of play but stops if the puck cannot be found within (5) seconds. 3.3. An audio timer should be used for all matches. 3.4. When play resumes after an interruption, both players keep all goals they scored during the interrupted match. 3.5. If any player retires during a tournament, he/she automatically loses all his/her remaining games, while the opponents add a win of 3-0 to his/her score. 3.6. During the playoff matches, in the event of a draw at the end of the five (5) minutes, there is an overtime. The overtime starts with a new faceoff at center ice. The winner is the one who scores the first goal (sudden death). 4. Faceoffs 4.1. All matches begin with a faceoff at center ice. Players of the match will determine who will drop the puck to begin the match if no referee is available. Subsequent faceoffs will have the player who was scored on dropping the puck. 4.2. If the puck falls out of play, all other faceoffs are made by dropping the puck at center ice. 4.3. Players must be sure that their opponent is ready before releasing the puck. If the faceoff is not made correctly the opponent is allowed to ask for a new faceoff. 4.4. All faceoff goals count. 4.5. If the puck is stuck in the “dead zone” behind the net where the defending player cannot reach the puck the puck shall be moved to the defending player’s defenceman of choice. 4.6. If the puck is in full rest behind the goalie and has not completely crossed the goal line, the defending player may call “faceoff” and a faceoff is made at center ice. 5. Scoring 5.1. The puck must stay in the goalie net for the goal to count. “In and outs” do not count. If the puck comes out from the goalie net the match continues without interruption. 5.2. In the case when the puck rests on the goalie rod completely behind the goal line, a goal is awarded. 5.3. A player may not “shove or tilt” the game causing the puck to move forward in order to score a goal. If that is the case a faceoff will occur with the player making the infraction dropping the puck. 6. Possession Rule 6.1. It is not permitted to retain possession of the puck without making any recognizable attempt to score a goal. This is regarded as passive play. 6.2 If a player determines that their opponent is retaining possession of the puck without making any recognizable attempt to score a goal they can say “delay of game” which means the player with the puck has (5) seconds and must make a shot on goal or a pass to the center player allowing the defender a chance to get the puck. If they do not follow this protocol a faceoff will occur at center ice with the player who made the infraction dropping the puck. 7. Interference 7.1. If a player notices that any of his/her opponent’s figures are raised up on the peg, he/she may stop playing and tap down his/her figures or ask the opponent to tap the figure back down on the peg. 7.2. Rough playing that result in shaking of the game and causing the puck to move is forbidden. 7.3. If any figure loses possession of the puck due to shaking of the game, then the puck must be returned back to this figure. 8. Interruption 8.1. If any major disturbance happens that is clearly evident to both players or makes normal play impossible for one of the players (e.g. broken gear, rod, figure or game support, lights go out, somebody/something clearly interrupts a player), the match must be immediately suspended. Any goal scored in such an instance does not count. If a minor disturbance occurs that is only evident to one player or only slightly impairs one player (e.g. rubber grip slips off rod, displaced goal cage, bent rod, slightly displaced game support), a player must suspend the game by saying “stop”, otherwise any goal scored will count. The match resumes when both players are ready again. 8.2. If a match is interrupted and significant time is lost then the lost time must be added to remaining time and the match continues. 8.3. Goals scored during an interruption do not count. 8.4. If a player had indisputable control of the puck before the interruption, the match continues with the puck in the place where it was, otherwise a new faceoff is made. 8.5. If the timer malfunctions, play must be suspended. It is then necessary to determine how much time (if any) still has to be played, so the total match length is as close to (5) minutes as possible, and to ensure that no goals scored after (5) minutes count. 9. Tiebreaker 9.1. Tie-Breaking Procedure for end of season standings - If (2) or more players are tied in percentage points, the standings of the players are determined in the following order: 1. The greater number of games won. 2. The greater number of tournaments won. 3. The greater number of points earned in games between the tied players. 4. The greater differential between goals for and against. 9.2. Tie-Breaking Procedure for end of tournament standings - If (2) or more players are tied in percentage points, the standings of the players are determined in the following order: 1. The greater number of games won. 2. The greater number of points earned in games between the tied players. 3. The greater differential between goals for and against. 10. WTHL Cup 10.1. Various tournaments are played on the WTHL Tour throughout the year. Since not all the teams play the same number of games, the champion is determined by the player who has the highest winning percentage at the end of the season.

Why is it ok to have the heading Rules on the only other Wikipedia table hockey page (ITHF table hockey) and not on the Winnipeg Table Hockey League Wikipedia page?

3. Season Structure

The Winnipeg Table Hockey League season runs from January 1 to December 31 of each calendar year. During the season, several tour dates and tournaments are scheduled throughout the year. Ties can occur during the round robin play of each tournament but sudden death overtime is used to determine a winner in the playoff rounds. Wins and ties are accumulated and each player earns a winning percentage for the season. Since not all the teams play the same number of games, the champion and winner of the WTHL Cup is determined by the player who has the highest winning percentage at the end of the season.

Why is ok to have heading Season Structure on the hockey Wikipedia page NHL and not on the Winnipeg Table Hockey League Wikipedia page?

4. WTHL League Records

The Winnipeg Table Hockey League has 10 records that it keeps track of. The list includes: Best Winning Pct., Season Best Winning Pct., Season Longest Winning Streak Longest Undefeated Streak Longest Losing Streak Longest Winless Streak Best Goals Against Avg., Season Best Goals For Avg, Season Most Goals, One Team, One Game Most Goals, Both Teams, One Game

'''At the end of the sentence (...keeps track of.) there was a citation linking to the Winnipeg Table Hockey League League Records page which showed pertinent information. Why is ok to have the hockey Wikipedia page (List of NHL records - individual) and not include (WTHL League Records)on the Winnipeg Table Hockey League Wikipedia page?'''

5. Sponsors

Budweiser is the league’s official sponsor of their annual tournament, the WTHL Challenge Cup and the WTHL Winter Classic game. Ticketmaster Custom Tickets is the league’s official sponsor of the annual WTHL Stadium Series games. Pizza Pizza is the league’s official sponsor of the annual WTHL Heritage Classic game.

'''Budweiser, Ticketmaster Custom Tickets and Pizza Pizza had citations associated with them linking them to their respective Wikipedia pages.

Why is it ok to have the heading Sponsors on the Wikipedia NHL page and not on the Winnipeg Table Hockey League Wikipedia page? '''

6. See Also

Currently under this heading there is only one item (International Table Hockey Federation (ITHF)). '''I believe the following should be put back as it gives the audience more of a source of information:

Canadian Table Hockey Association (CTHA) here is the link: (http://canadiantablehockeyassociation.com/) United States Table Hockey Association (USTHA) here is the link: (http://www.ustha.com/) Table Hockey, The Movie here is the link: (https://vimeo.com/160769897) '''

7. '''WTHL crest.png was removed from the infobox at the top of the page for copyright violations but if it belongs to the WTHL then how is it a violation? How can we get the logo back on? For example on the NHL Wikipedia page you can see their logo. When you click on their logo I see it is a "Non-free use logo." Do we have to make the WTHL logo a Non-free use logo as well in order to use it? Just wondering how all the different teams from different sports on Wikipedia have their logo in their infobox?'''

As you can see a lot of info was removed and I believe it needs to be added back to make the page more informational.

Can you be of assistance as it would be greatly appreciated?

About changing
Hi, a few weeks ago, you changed the logo on Consumers Distributing, but the logo was erased because it was not real logo, now the real logo is on the File:Consumers Distributing logo.jpg, so you should replace the logo because the article has currently not logo. This file is the real last logo, I don’t know if you remember this. Thank you again to replace the logo in the article.--Arnold Dannoy (talk) 18:24, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

About a change
Hello, you have recently added the logo of Consumers Distributing, the logo would be more visible by adding the line: «| logo_size = 300px» next to the line of logo in the infobox, the logo is a little bit to small to see now, the size 300px mentioned would be the most appropriate size. Thank you if you could do that, I can’t do this myself.--Atlas Mike (talk) 17:22, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

Page mover granted
Hello, Danski454. Your account has been [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ADanski454 granted] the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.

Please take a moment to review Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when  is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

Useful links:
 * Requested moves
 * Category:Articles to be moved, for article renaming requests awaiting action.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! TonyBallioni (talk) 22:05, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
