Belated Welcome!!
Hello,, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like it here! I apologize that I did not think to send you a welcome message when I first noticed you here.

Here are a few links for newcomers that I hope you'll find helpful:

Reliable sources, CITE, WP:V and WP:NPOV How to edit a page; How to develop articles; Editing tutorial Manual of Style; Writing better articles The five pillars of Wikipedia Editing by consensus – working well with other Wikipedians

If you'd like some help with editing or otherwise, you can sign up at the new users log, post a question at the Help Desk, or ask me on my talk page.

It is a good idea to read the most recent entries at the bottom of the Talk page of an existing article before making major changes to it, to see if your proposed change has been discussed before. Before I make a major change to an article, I often make a proposal on the Talk page to see if others disagree with the approach.

Again, welcome! -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:10, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the warm welcome! Dartslilly (talk) 05:20, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. You are WP:EDIT WARring at Kismet (musical), where you reverted to your preferred version before building a WP:CONSENSUS to add this information to the article. I suggest that you revert your own edit and wait for a consensus to develop on the Talk page. Please read WP:EDIT WAR for more information. -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:08, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I think anyone can make a change on Wikipedia if it is sourced and relevant. We should add content, not delete it. I see you making a lot of removals at the article and I don't think this is my style. I prefer to add content. Why delete content that may be of value to readers? I hope you can understand this. Dartslilly (talk) 23:15, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
 * We don't wan't to clutter up articles with general information that is more appropriate to a more general article, like musical theatre. We want the most relevant information in each article.  I completely agree that Kismet could use more Background information, but only information that is more directly relevant to that musical. -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:36, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I understand and I have replied at the article talk page Talk:Kismet_(musical). Dartslilly (talk) 23:39, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Please review MOS:OVERLINK. Commonly understood words and placenames like states or countries, or famous cities like New York or Amsterdam do not need to be blue-linked.  All the best, -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:08, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the policy, but I do not believe I linked any common words. Can you please explain here or on the article talk page which specific common words I linked to so I can fix the mistake? I think consensus is more likely if you can be more specific than "I disagree with all your changes".Dartslilly (talk) 05:32, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * You linked New York, fees and costumes, among other common words. I'm going to assume that you are being forgetful about your changes rather than disingenuous.  *Much* more importantly, however: If you make a *change* to an article, and another editor reverts you, that means that they *disagree* with you.  In that case, WP:EDIT WAR (one of our most important dispute resolution rules) states that you *may not* re-insert your preferred changes *until* you have reached a consensus to do so on the Talk page.  I have been editing here for more than 13 years, and I can tell you that edit warring is one of the fastest ways to lose editing privileges on Wikipedia.  I think you have the potential to be a good editor, but if you continue to edit war when you have a disagreement with someone, it will not end well for you. -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:11, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

This last comment was unnecessarily aggressive. I have already de-linked New York, fees and royalties only because you didn't like them. I don't want to step on any toes, I appreciate the work you have put into these articles before I arrived. I do not consider these common words, but I also do not think they are essential background information for this article, which is about a musical. Costumes, on the other hand, is a relevant link for an article about a theatrical production.Dartslilly (talk) 18:33, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * As a talk page watcher I have to say that I agree with Ssilvers. If you are reverted, take it to the talk page, do not revert back. Articles are of a higher quality when they have less info that is reliably sourced than articles with piles of unsourced information. Aim for quality. not quantity and that often means removing info as opposed to adding it. We also have a manual of style at Wikipedia that needs to be followed and you could do well to listen to seasoned editors like Ssilvers. Finally, I have to disagree Dartsilly, I thought Ssilvers dealt with this quite civilly and didn't find their last comment to be aggressive at all. Don't take reversion personally, it's all part of the procedure. Happy editing!  Rob van  vee  05:34, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * The procedure? Can you please say more about that? I'm going to be more specific "you *may not* re-insert your preferred changes" is not civil and it is aggressive due to the emphasis, considered yelling in internet etiquette, and barking orders. Bye, Dartslilly (talk) 08:58, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * In fairness they were quoting policy.  Rob van  vee  09:44, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Trip hop
Hey again. I removed Mandalay from trip hop as they are not reliably sourced as such at the trip hop article or on the band's article page.  Rob van  vee  05:24, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Oh no, I may have relied on the band's article. There are many sources for this available, but not all are easily accessible on Google Books. Does something like this still need a direct citation? Dartslilly (talk) 08:42, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Well, if like me and most other committed editors, you want only the highest quality articles on Wikipedia then yes, I can't overemphasize the importance of sourcing. Especially genre's! Do you need help adding sources?  Rob van  vee  09:41, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Can Spotify be used as a source for genres? They say it has a "dream pop aesthetic" with "trip-hop loops"...Dartslilly (talk) 09:47, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * No. Also neither are explicitly called their respective genre's. "Aesthetic" and "loops" suggest they have those elements but it needs to state the genre categorically. I found the link we discussed at the Silverchair page here btw.  Rob van  vee  12:17, 18 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm SounderBruce. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Seattle, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''Please include a properly-formatted citation with a book page and title. For Featured articles like Seattle, higher-quality sources are needed to back up new claims.''  Sounder  Bruce  06:39, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know I wasn't watching the article and almost missed this I'll review the link before editing that article again.Dartslilly (talk) 06:48, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

Edit warring?
I want to follow up with you about this. How exactly do my edits at Europe Supported by Africa and America constitute edit warring? – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 04:42, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Perhaps I was mistaken, it would be better to continue on the article talk page where I have started a new discussion. Dartslilly (talk) 05:39, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Article talk pages are for discussing issues that pertain to the article content. Discussing user conduct (as we are doing now) should be done at user talk pages. I'm just confused about why you thought it was appropriate to war warn me against "repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions" when I reverted your edit only once. – Lord Bolingbroke (talk) 06:21, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Stereophonic sound § Common usage (Reverted?)
In common usage, a "stereo" is a two-channel sound reproduction system, and a "stereo recording" is a two-channel recording even though the etymology of the word stereo does not limit its definition to two channels. This is cause for much confusion, since five (or more)-channel home theater systems are not popularly described as "stereo".

"even though the etymology of the word stereo does not limit its definition to two channels." -I don't understand why this needs to be sourced as it only clarifies the existing statement. Also, the etymology given near the top of the page supports the statement and I've found no other etymology that negates it. Please explain. Quickfix333 (talk) 21:50, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
 * If it has never been discussed by any reliable source it should not be in the article. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, random facts or trivia. You should discuss these concerns on the article talk page. Dartslilly (talk) 22:37, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
 * It's self-evident that the etymology does not limit its definition to two channels. When I first read the preexisting paragraph, it took me some time to understand what it was getting at. I thought that my addition only clarified the point. I understand that Wikipedia is not for random facts or trivia, but you've offered no explanation as to why something that's self-evident needs to be sourced.Quickfix333 (talk) 23:04, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Cross linkage on Wakefield fraud pages
There is an existing page on the Lancet MMR autism fraud. Many of the details on the Andrew Wakefield page are duplicative and the lack of a cross linkage makes in difficult for users to find this information regarding the fraudulent items in the 1998 paper. Thus I am trying to cross-link to the more detailed page which now cites to the original literature.

I understand there have been problems with editing on the Wakefield page and it is semi-protected. I guess I would need some sort of approval to change this? Or perhaps you can approve the changes? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PeterNSteinmetz (talk • contribs) 21:41, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not involved with the article. You could ask at the talk page. We can't use Wikipedia articles as a cross-linked source so anything you wanted to add would have to be sourced in the article you were adding it to. Dartslilly (talk) 21:43, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Endcliffe Park
Why did you rollback my edit. Did you read https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1001502 ? Also see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porter_Brook ''The millpond, or dam as it is referred to locally, for Endcliffe Wheel mill at the east end of the Wood was adapted for bathing; the dam for Holmes Wheel mill, in the middle, for skating; and the dam for Nether Spur-Gear Wheel mill, at the west end, for waterfowl. Walks were created alongside the dams, and their outfalls modified into waterfalls and cascades.'' Are you engaging in some sort of vandalism ? I'm not going to restore my content. What's the point with people like you involved in Wikipedia. I was going to greatly expand (with cite notes) all articles on the Porter Valley Parks. 86.179.247.253 (talk) 23:52, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't know which edit you are talking about. If you feel I've made a mistake, feel free to restore your edit or start a discussion on the article talk page. Dartslilly (talk) 00:13, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

Endcliffe Park (again)
Only minutes ago (as ip user 86.179.247.253)I asked you why you reverted my edit of Endcliffe Park, the only text in the section on Ponds with a cite note. You responded by saying, ''I don't know which edit you are talking about. If you feel I've made a mistake, feel free to restore your edit or start a discussion on the article talk page.'' You then, very promptly archived my comments on your talk page. If you know how to archive an article then I think it unlikely you don't now how to view the Endcliffe Park: Revision history page. You don't know which edit I am talking about? Yeah! With people like you, making, then attempting to bury their mistakes I think it is time I stepped back from making edits to wikipedia.

 * You were reverted because you were adding LINKSPAM to the article and self-reverting yourself and now you are ip hopping. [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Endcliffe_Park&diff=prev&oldid=935325494]. I'm skeptical, but you are welcome to continue to making productive edits. I do advise you against yelling at good faith editors and patrollers. If you were reverted by a patroller there was probably a sound reason and you are free to voice your disagreement, as you are now, and restore your content if you feel it was in error.Dartslilly (talk) 00:50, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

You've justified your reversion of Evliya Çelebi by claiming a need for citation at the talk page- without reviewing the extensive talk on the contested topic at the very location suggested!

 * What you are calling "Wiki convention" are policies that have broad community consensus. Some "conventions" or community customs are optional, but WP:V and neutrality are fundamental to producing encyclopedic content.

I hope this has helped answer some of your questions about our policies, please let me know if I can help with anything further.Dartslilly (talk) 18:28, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
 * You made no attempt to discus the issue on the talk page- despite citing a need for talk to justify your reversion.  Yes, community consensus is essential to the function of the Wiki- but you are not attempting to employ that mechanism as intended, but, seemingly, as defensive bluster.   I did not ask you a question about 'our' policy.  You have been in no way helpful- instead, confrontational and combative, all under the veil of faux civility and overt condescension.   Do better.

As well placed here:

Your recent editing history at Evliya Çelebi 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 don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Animations
Hi Dartslilly, on the dipole antenna page you recently removed the first and then the second animation. Did you perhaps intend to remove the first and third animations? The third animation is of a similar nature to the first, whereas the second was not obviously objectionable.catslash (talk) 23:33, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * They are the worst graphics I've seen anywhere on this project. Readers should be given the option to view these types of graphics. I worry that they may be damaging for readers who have vision problems. Dartslilly (talk) 22:20, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

Broadcasting reform movement moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Broadcasting reform movement, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding to your message (talk to me) (My edits) @  19:31, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I was adding more sources to it now before you moved it, please move it back, I don't know how. Dartslilly (talk) 19:40, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Public broadcasting in the United States
Please don't just leave the full material stuck at Public_broadcasting - since you performed the copy part of the split, there's some expectation that you also clean up the origin. Based on cursory inspection, a summary paragraph plus Main template ought to do it? -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 01:21, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for this comment, since it was a bold split (based on the proposal being unopposed), I wanted to open the discussion to input from editors who have been working on the article longer and if there are no objections I'm going to go ahead with the clean up. Dartslilly (talk) 01:29, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, other editors are more likely to chime in once they see something happening in the article, so I wouldn't quite depend on there being no objections yet :) But if you remove stuff now, it can always be undone in that case. Cheers -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 01:34, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

Assistance please
Hello can you please assist me to format the articles right? I'm still not good at it. 194.247.60.2 (talk) 20:55, 29 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Before you publish your changes you can use the "Show preview" button in the edit window to review your changes to see if there are any citation or formatting errors. I would suggest making small, incremental changes if you are having problems with the markup, instead of big changes all at once, so it is easier for you to keep track or your changes and see where the errors are, or you could try the Visual Editor and see if that works better for you.

Edited My Edit
On Roxanne, you reverted my edit, I’m not mad, just want to know why? AdvisoryOnMixer (talk) 02:13, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
 * It was an unsourced, grammatically incorrect addition to the lead section of the article. Dartslilly (talk) 12:56, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

Zack Snyder edit
Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead was nominated for the Camera d' Or at 2004 Cannes Film Festival. I'm sorry for not providing source before.

Reverted My Edit
Hello! I saw you reverted my edit on the Throne of Fire Wikipedia page. I understand that the former version was much more detailed, but since the summary has been described as "too long or excessively detailed," I thought that it should be cut down a bit. Were the changes I made not satisfactory?

Pending changes reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

 * 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.


 * Hi, I just wanted to suggest that you be a bit more verbose on your edit summaries for pending changes when you don't accept the change. The edits caught in pending changes are by newer editors who won't be familiar with common Wikipedia shorthand. For example, on this set of pending changes, you reverted it with the summary el. The new editors aren't going to know or understand that the edit wasn't approved because it contained external links in the body. Either more words in the edit summary or a link to the Wikipedia page that explains it would be more educational for these new editors. Thanks! Schazjmd   (talk)  17:21, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Btw, I do see that you left explanatory messages on two of the editor's talk pages explaining, which is great, thank you! Schazjmd   (talk)  17:37, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Hello everyone and welcome to the 19th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:

Scripts Submit your new/improved script here
 * Cscr-featured.svg Enterprisey's script-installer, a gadget that makes it easier to install scripts, is this month's featured script


 * Gnome-colors-list-add.svg Enterprisey's copy-section-link adds popups to section headers which has an appropriate wikilink and external link to the section.
 * DannyS712's FindBlacklistEntry can be used to figure out which line(s) in either the local or global spamblacklist prevent a particular url from being added.
 * Nardog's CodeEditorAssist allows customizing the code editor, including changing the color theme and enabling live autocompletion.
 * Cobaltcigs's IllWill allows searches wikidata.org for foreign-language sitelinks, to populate ill and replace plain red links.


 * Gnome-colors-view-refresh.svg Twinkle has made a number of improvements, most notably full support for expiring watchlist items.
 * Evad37's Signpost Publishing Script is now at version 2.4.2, with changes including a fix for calculating the size of pages with files.
 * Evad37's MoveToDraft is now at version 2.5.1, with changes including:
 * checks for move conflicts and better options if move fails
 * the addition of Drafts moved from mainspace after moves
 * updating the default move log and notification texts to be more in line with WP:DRAFTIFY
 * Enterprisey's cv-revdel now handles failures more cleanly, including reporting failures caused by the spam blacklist.
 * Bradv's Notepad.js script has been updated with new styles and a new launch button.
 * A beta version of XFDcloser is available for testing, and brings a new user interface for dialogs and some preferences for customization.



Open tasks
 * Voting in the m:Community Wishlist Survey 2021 is ongoing until December 21, 2020. There are 15 proposals in the "bots and gadgets" category that may be of interest.

Pending requests
 * A script to help list discussions at WP:ANRFC (request)
 * A script to allow undoing edits despite conflicting intermediary edits (request)
 * ...and many more, all available at User scripts/Requests

Miscellaneous
 * The Watchlist Expiry feature worked on by the Community Tech team has been enabled on Wikipedia. For scripts that include watching or unwatching pages, developers may want to update their code to take advantage of the new functionality. See the documentation on mediawiki.org.
 * As noted in the prior issue, Enterprisey's links-in-logs script has now been implemented as part of MediaWiki core. By my count, this is his third script that was replaced by implementing the code in MediaWiki core or an extension, along with link-section-edits and abusefilter-hide-search. Additionally, his reply-link script is being converted in part to mw:Extension:DiscussionTools. Are there any other scripts that might be worth integrating directly in MediaWiki? Thoughts would be welcome at Wikipedia talk:Scripts++.

As always, if anyone else would like to contribute, help is appreciated. Stay safe, and happy holidays! --DannyS712 (talk) 00:19, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Open tasks
 * As a reminder, the legacy javascript globals (like accessing  without first assigning it a value or using   instead) are deprecated.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Defunct music venues


A tag has been placed on Category:Defunct music venues indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself.

You've been unsubscribed from the Feedback Request Service
Hi Dartslilly! You're receiving this notification because you were previously subscribed to the Feedback Request Service, but you haven't made any edits to the English Wikipedia in over a year.

In order to declutter the Feedback Request Service list, and to produce a greater chance of active users being randomly selected to receive invitations to contribute, you've been unsubscribed, along with all other users who have made no edits in two years or more.

You do not need to do anything about this - if you are happy to not receive Feedback Request Service messages, thank you very much for your contributions in the past, and this will be the last you hear from the service. If, however, you would like to resubscribe yourself, you can follow the below instructions to do so:


 * 1) Go to the Feedback Request Service page.
 * 2) Decide which categories are of interest to you, under the RfC and/or GA headings.
 * 3) Paste  underneath the relevant heading(s), where limit is the maximum number of requests you wish to receive for that category per month.
