Altitude
Hi Cement, I had to undo your edits to the Sydney and Australian tallest buildings article, with regards to Altitude: you had not provided a reliable source which confirms that Altitude is currently in the topped-out phase. Feel free to add said content back in, once you've provided said source. Best, —MelbourneStar ☆ talk 11:24, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Again, please don't introduce content that is unreferenced, as you did at List of tallest buildings in Australia. Sydney's skyscraper count (completed and topped-out) is still one less than Melbourne, per CTBUH.

File:Opening title of "Ambulance Australia" television program.png
Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Discretionary sanctions alert
O3000 (talk) 12:42, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

January 2019
Your recent editing history at Article 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 BRD 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.

Note: The CNN article is under discretionary sanctions which you have violated:

I suggest you revert your last edit. Also, there is a discussion on the article talk page. O3000 (talk) 13:04, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Limit of one revert in 24 hours: This article is under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period).
 * Enforced BRD: If an edit you make is challenged by reversion you must discuss the issue on the article talk page and wait 24 hours (from the time of the original edit) before reinstating your edit. Partial reverts/reinstatements that reasonably address objections of other editors are preferable to wholesale reverts.


 * Looks like you have issues with habitual edit warring - the warning here applies to Clementine Ford (writer), too. Based on your edit summary here, please also review WP:ONUS. VQuakr (talk) 09:12, 16 January 2019 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Carlos Maza; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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. Grayfell (talk) 04:11, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;

Australian residential architectural styles
Hi there. Thanks for your additions to Australian residential architectural styles. I've been working on this article on and off over a number of years and really appreciate your well-sourced additions. However, I've had to remove Toxteth Park, Glebe as it's actually Victorian Italianate. And Juniper Hall, Paddington that was already there is actually Victorian Georgian and not Old Colonial Georgian (in fact it was listed twice!). I'd really appreciate if you could add citations to each property's architectural style if you plan to add any more images. That really helps if an image is challenged. Many thanks, once again. And keep up the great work :-) Cheers. Rangasyd (talk) 05:14, 12 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Much appreciated. I've also been working on the Australian non-residential architectural styles page which was and is still a bit oversaturated with architectural examples from Victoria, so it would be great if we could get some more examples from across the nation as a whole. Cement4802 (talk) 08:32, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
 * A pleasure. The same issue applies with citations for the non-residential arch. styles. Yeah, I hear you the dominance of Victorian examples. I've been adding NSW over the years; but I'll try to give a national perspective. Any imagery from Qld that you wish to add to Australian non-residential architectural styles would be appreciated; especially where it's unique to your state or a landmark example. And perhaps suggestions on who to reach out in Tas, and SA/NT?  Same re WA, if you're interested. I'm sure there would be good examples and images from  that could be used, if you can find citations that clearly articulate their architectural style. Many thanks. Rangasyd (talk) 11:07, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi again. Can you please stop for a minute. You're adding properties to Australian non-residential architectural styles that are already listed in other categories; and you're adding them in the wrong category without references. eg. Department of Lands building is NOT Victorian Free Classical, its Victorian Renaissance Revival. Can I ask that before you add (or take off any more) you please add a reference that clearly shows the relevant architectural style. I'm fixing up VFC right now. I'm hyperlinking where possible, adding citations and sorting into alphabetical order. Re Glebe... do we really need four buildings from the one suburb to demonstrate the style? It's not about numbers on this page, it's about getting the best representative mix across Australia. Cheers Rangasyd (talk) 11:50, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Some of the sources I used to determine the architectural style of buildings might have conflicted with other sources which have already been used on this page, especially since different architectural features from different periods could have been added on to existing buildings. I'll try and avoid this next time.Cement4802 (talk) 06:34, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
 * For Queensland, if you go to the Search the Queensland Heritage Register webpage and choose the Advanced Search option, you get the option to search by Style which ranges from Art Deco to Tudor (but curiously seems to omit plain old "Queenslander" which is a dominant residential style). That list of styles (plus Queenslander) would appear to be a good starting point for Queensland architect, plus the search capability means it's easy to find examples of those styles (noting that as these images are CC-BY licensed, I have uploaded many of them to Commons to make life even easier). Kerry (talk) 01:16, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Some of the sources I used... Please add the reference from now on so that we can see if it's from a reliable source; or maybe we can provide a better source. A lot of work in QLD and NSW has been done to extract data from the relative state heritage registers for items of state significance; and work has also been done on the Commonwealth Heritage List for buildings of national significance. We should use these buildings as the stand out examples of both residential and non-residential architecture (and the same for the other states/territories). Each of these properties has a Wikipedia article. Thanks Great work as always. Cheers Rangasyd (talk) 12:11, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Rangasyd, just to clear things up a bit, all of the additions I've made to both the residential and non-residential articles are now sourced from NSW's State Heritage Register. Though I'm not sure if it's wise to cite every example from the same source, otherwise it'll get repetitive. Thanks - Cement4802 (talk) 03:51, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * It is very wise to add a citation to every entry that clearly indicates why a property has been placed in a particular category. And please be judicious in your selection of examples. We don't need three examples from the same suburb of the same style. As this is an article that is focused on Australian residential architectural styles, examples should be sourced from across the nation, not just one city/suburb of one city. I have made many more corrections. And finally, please add a reason for everyone of your edits. We have to second guess why you doing things - a brief description goes a long way. And there is no need to use the words "File:" or "Image:", if located with Cheers. Rangasyd (talk) 11:03, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Sydney infobox montage...cabal of editors with the same tiresome excuses!
I actually posted a response to your last comment on the Talk:Sydney page. However, User:AussieLegend removed it. Can you believe that? He has the gall to remove something I wrote simply because he did not like it. It's ridiculous. Have you considered taking it further? These same editors can't keep their rigid control over the Sydney page forever. Ashton 29 (talk) 14:17, 21 April 2020 (UTC) - Similarly, accusing people of opposing you because they have some grudge against you is uncivil. If you have had conflict with so many editors then perhaps you should try to look objectively at your edits and try to understand why you have been opposed. As for the DRN discussion, no admin said anything. The editor who mentioned disruptive editing is a volunteer and not an admin. In any case he did not mention personal attacks at all. Finally, Accusing somebody of harrassment is unwise at the best of times. Ironically, posting bogus warning templates to another editor's talk page, such as the one that you posted to mine, could be seen as harrassment, especially if you persist. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 05:16, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Please don't tell lies. The response is still there. Only the personal attack was removed in accordance with WP:RPA. It wasn't removed because I did not like it. Another editor agreed that it was a personal attack. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 14:40, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Absolutely Ashton 29, a few stubborn editors in complete denial have held up any sort of progress on the page for at least a decade now. I have consistently maintained my position and I've always tried to get the ball rolling, but everyone else seems to chicken out and give in whenever the few select editors in opposition pull up their same old tired excuses, which is weird given the overwhelming majority of editors are in opposition to them. I can simply only sit and watch, unless we get more editors with some actual balls to just push forward. It's certainly very frustrating.- Cement4802 (talk) 03:45, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Any ideas on a formal process we can put forward, or where we can take this? Ashton 29 (talk) 17:57, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I've opened up a request for a dispute resolution here. Would appreciate your input on the conflict, hopefully a user with non-biased views can help us achieve a resolution or compromise. Ashton 29 (talk) 08:33, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
 * As witnessed with the complete lack of participation in your dispute resolution, this is one of my main gripes with the community of editors involved in Sydney's page. Where are they? They'll support the move for a montage and they'll happily share the same frustrations with the lack of progress, but once it actually comes time to taking drastic action or making a move, they vanish into thin air. I hope they know that it takes more than two editors to actually push away the anchor holding this proposal back. It makes no sense for them to collectively complain yet lazily take no action to resolve this. - Cement4802 (talk) 08:03, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Suddenly there's a bunch of users united in their opposition. It's like AussieLegend or somebody has canvassed them to come and voice their disapproval. It just seems like totally circumspect, almost sly or vindictive behaviour, to me. Some of the editors who have suddenly added their names to the list of opposition to the montage hardly ever edit the Sydney page, or haven't really contributed much in months/years. Suddenly they want to stake their claim in the anti-montage sentiment? It's rubbish, mate. Absolute piffle. Ashton 29 (talk) 15:50, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. Several editors that i've been having disputes with over seperate unrelated articles, especially those political in nature, have decided that they'll use their personal grudge against me to come on over to the page to likewise target and harass me. It's a disgusting mob mentality. For the record, an moderator on the dispute resolution page has actually ruled that you didn't actually make any personal attacks or cause any disruptive editing. The only thing you've violated so far is not consulting everyone you were creating it, but the main point remains. I've seen the constant harassement and attacks on your page coming from (talk), and all of his claims have been rightly refuted. It seems he also has a history of harrasement and sending out false, unsubstantiated claims if you look through the archives on his talk page, and i'd suggest that he himself is actually in violation of several wikipedia policies.Cement4802 (talk) 00:14, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * - All of the editors who have recently posted are active editors who have edited Sydney previously and who have participated in previous discussions. No doubt they have Sydney on their watchlist and have become tired of the situation. Accusing somebody of canvassing without proof is unwise at the best of times.
 * Accusing people of personal attacks when no such thing has occured, and proceeding to do the same thing to other editors, is just as, if not more disruptive. The edit warring warning was justified, as your recent editing at the Sydney page shows that you have been disruptive in your edits by constantly reverting edits that you disagree with. For an experienced editor like you, i hope you should know that such disuptes should be resolved in the talk page, not in the form of constant reverts and disruptive behaviour that borders on vandalism and harassement. Should you continue with these behaviours, discplinary action can be taken against you. In fact, you have quite a long history of harassement, disruptive behaviour, edit warring and blatantly accusing other editors of actions without any substantiated evidence. - Cement4802 (talk) 11:34, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Accusing people of personal attacks when no such thing has occured, and proceeding to do the same thing to other editors, is just as, if not more disruptive. I agree, and both you and Ashton 29 should not do that. The warning that you left on my page was completely inappropriate as there was no edit-warring. If you believe there was, then by all means submit a report at WP:AN3. Either do that or remove the baseless allegations that you have made in the above post. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 12:23, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Again, please be mindful of the fact that you and another editor have been just as guilty of using personal attacks when you disagree with someone. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. And the warning was sent over for good reason. If you can't accept the fact that your behaviour has not been up to scratch, then focus on improving it instead of denying it.- Cement4802 (talk) 00:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * This is blatantly untrue. I would suggest that you read WP:NPA and WP:EDITWAR after which you should apologise. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 02:30, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't need to apologise for something you have done. Your actions were in line with the definition of edit warring - Cement4802 (talk) 02:39, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Since you refuse to take any action I'm afraid I have no alternative. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 02:45, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

Notice
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:Ashton 29 - Increasingly problematic editing and personal attacks.  Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 17:34, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

Important Notice

Use of the word claimed
I suggest that you read WP:CLAIMED. In fact, the whole page. I'll save a bit of time by quoting: "Said, stated, described, wrote, commented, and according to are almost always neutral and accurate." "To write that someone asserted or claimed something can call their statement's credibility into question, by emphasizing any potential contradiction or implying a disregard for evidence".

Editing while logged out - sockpuppetry
The IP which made this edit geolocates to New South Wales, Australia. Was that you editing while logged out to evade the 1RR restriction on the page? If so, you need to know that that is prohibited behavior and can lead to you being blocked or banned from editing the encyclopedia.

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits while logged out. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of both an account and an IP address by the same person in the same setting and doing so may result in your account being blocked from editing. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 05:42, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi NorthBySouthBaranof, edits were indeed made logged out but that was out of pure convenience. If I'm not mistaken, I believe you may be referring to the Andy Ngo article, where an IP address made edits on the page. I witnessed that too. I did indeed make edits logged out, but that was out of pure convenience on a different unrelated page. I have no connection with the IP address on the article. Thanks for letting me know though - Cement4802 (talk) 06:52, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Crown Sydney
Hi there,

I've noticed Crown Sydney is listed on Wikipedia as having topped-out, with you having made these changes a month or two ago. However, I can't find the source to corroborate this. I've found this source from Crown (February 2020), which speaks of a WP:FUTURE topping-out in March (which, for all we know, could have been delayed due to COVID-19). Yet, I'm not finding any secondary sources. Considering it will be Sydney's tallest building, I'd imagine there would be a lot of coverage.

As such, I don't actually think it has topped-out. Instead, it appears to still be in its final days/weeks/months of construction. I'm happy to be wrong though, so can you please provide the source you based these edits on? kind regards, —<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b> ☆ <sup style="color:#407">talk 15:08, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yep, I'll cite some secondary sources for the topped out status. My apologies for the unsourced edits, I should have known better.
 * On a quick unrelated sidenote, if I'm not mistaken I believe I've seen your username around on the online development forum skyscrapercity? - Cement4802 (talk) 02:49, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you Cement!
 * I'm wary that the source appears to report on the same source I provided above... a bit of circular reporting going on. But I won't pursue this further, considering it does look like it's in that awkward phase between UC/TO (and could very well have TO per the sources provided).
 * And yes, guilty as charged! I don't frequent it as much, but it's always handy to know what's going to happen with developments before they hit the press. You're on Skyscrapercity too? —<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b> ☆ <sup style="color:#407">talk 04:32, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yep, i'm a regular on that forum. I'm quite active over there and my username is almost a mirror image of my wikipedia username, so you really can't miss it. I'm surprised you didn't get the subtle hints that indicated this, such as my suspiciously odd confidence that crown was topped out without any sources (yes, i know i shouldn't be relying on forum information), the nicking of cul's crown photo to be used over here ("richard braddish" would be him) and all the contributions i've made to skyscraper and transport related topics on wikipedia haha. - Cement4802 (talk) 05:50, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, I feel so silly. I have indeed seen your username plenty! it just didn't click... so many names, I'm pretty hopeless remembering at times. Yes, it may be controversial of me to say this, but Cull is probably one of my favourite people over at Ozscrapers. He knows his stuff and likes accuracy which is always good. And yes, I know the feeling re forum information... it's a pity we can't use this often privy information, but I guess it's still good to have the advantage of at least knowing what's coming next and what to look out for. Hope to bump into you more at the forum! —<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b> ☆ <sup style="color:#407">talk 11:05, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

Where we are at re: Sydney montage
Well, I thought I'd start a new subsection on your talk page because AussieLegend keeps hijacking the discussion. Currently, Merbabu has proposed a weekly (or similar) rotation where we have a single image and then a montage, vice versa. How does that sound to you? HiLo48 was particularly stubborn, and dug his heels in, point blank refusing this suggestion as did AussieLegend who very inaccurately labelled the discussion a dead horse, to suit his own agenda about closing the discussion so his single image wins. It's interesting the same few users consistently refuse compromise, yet as soon as you add a montage they ask you to take it to the talk page, presumably under the guise of discussion and "compromise"..and yet you simply can't discuss anything with them. Their minds are made up. If I went and added a montage now, he'd revert it, yet I'm not really sure he has the credibility to do such a thing given how many people now have put the names to the support, how I've CLEARLY used the talk page many times (so it doesn't simply look like edit warring or non-constructive editing/vandalism as he might portray it to be whenever a montage is added), and how silly his ownership of the Sydney page is starting to look. Ashton 29 (talk) 16:40, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Absolutely, anything to get the ball rolling I'm all for it - Cement4802 (talk) 02:49, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
 * it seems like one step forward, two steps back with these editors. AussieLegend, in particular, is becoming more and more controlling. He is even undoing edits on the Newcastle page. I wonder how many other Australian pages he has an ownership style of editing of.Ashton 29 (talk) 09:49, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Citing podcasts
Hi, with regards to your recent edit to Lando Norris, when citing podcasts and the like, it would be helpful to readers and other editors if you included a time stamp (see Citing sources. Don't worry about doing it for Norris, but for future refernce. Thanks, SSSB (talk) 08:48, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Canvassing
Please do not repeat the canvassing evident at diff or diff. The second also contains gratuitous attacks on named editors and is doubly prohibited. Bear in mind that just as you are frustrated and struggling to get your preferred outcome, so are others. And just as you are editing in good faith, trying to improve the encyclopedia against clueless opposition, so are others. At any rate, canvassing is a serious issue which you can enquire about at the WP:Teahouse if needed. The bottom line is that blocks will follow anything that looks like canvassing or personal attacks for the next couple of months while the issues at Talk:Sydney are discussed calmly and politely, and then digested. Johnuniq (talk) 06:59, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Johnuniq, canvassing is a stretch, considering my and Ashton 29's level of involvement in the prior discussions and lack of participation in the RfC. Which similarly involved users who disagree with Cement4802 should they have notified? --Cjhard (talk) 07:23, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Regarding the level of involvement: that's why I didn't think about a block. However, it is canvassing and the second diff is a personal attack. Anyone at the Teahouse would explain that you don't notify individuals about an RfC with certain possible IAR exceptions, such as notifying a subject-matter expert who has not been involved in disputes at the article concerned. If notifying editors who have, for example, edited an article, all such editors would have to receive the same notification. That might be cut off to all within the last year. The bottom line (explained at my first link above) is that selective notification is not on. It's "just" a guideline, but it is taken very seriously. There is no need for anyone to get overly excited: the only point is that it should not be repeated (and particularly opponents should not be mentioned unless at a noticeboard). Johnuniq (talk) 07:37, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Johnuniq I'll refrain, but just so you know the other editors have been just as guilty of "personal attacks", especially after I took the right initiative to notify one of them about the (previous) ongoing ANI discussion, to which he hopped on board with his trusty partner in crime to make some snide, mocking remarks that I had forgot to sign my comment (quite hilariously childish actually). I'm not asking you to tell them off or anything (because i'm not that type of guy, and unlike certain editors here who shall remain nameless, wikipedia is not my life), im just pointing out that such behaviour is quite widespread across all editors involved, and i reckon my comments were actually rather mild in comparison. - Cement4802 (talk) 10:07, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, I know it's on both sides and that's why I'm trying to hose everyone down, particularly during the RfC period. Johnuniq (talk) 10:14, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Citation clutter
In editing Antifa (United States), as you did here, please beware of Citation overkill. Five consecutive references, especially in the lead, are excessive. NedFausa (talk) 05:37, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. It's just that such edits are usually really controversial in nature, and based on the history of the page, "over egging the pudding" with sources seems to be necessary to get an edit across. But I'll refrain in the future - Cement4802 (talk) 05:40, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Misrepresentation of sources concerning Antifa
Just one example. - it simply calls the group controversial and " The term is used to define a broad group of people whose political beliefs lean toward the left -- often the far left -- but do not conform with the Democratic Party platform." Do you not even read your sources? See WP:HEADLINE. Doug Weller talk 10:16, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Question is have YOU read the sources. They all describe ANTIFA as being far left or conforming to far-left ideologies. Nothing has been misrepresented and stating otherwise could suggest a bit of bias - Cement4802 (talk) 11:05, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement

Partial block from Antifa (United States)
To enforce an arbitration decision and for 1RR violation, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 2 weeks. You are welcome to edit once the block expires; however, please note that the repetition of similar behavior may result in a longer block or other sanctions. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page:. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. <p style="line-height: 90%;"> Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped." El_C 15:41, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Kia Forte into Kia Cerato. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 11:16, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

Your move of DJR Team Penske
Hi. I have reverted your undiscussed move of DJR Team Penske. If you still want the article to be renamed please start a requested move. Thanks. A7V2 (talk) 07:22, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Likewise I have reverted your other undiscussed moves of Supercar team articles. The long-standing convention has been for team articles to use generic rather than commercial names, as the latter change frequently, while the former are more stable. Dvzk (talk) 10:43, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
 * The articles have existed for many years without this known commercially as that you are seeking to insert. Per WP:BRD the onus is on you to make the case for it being added, I would suggest at a central location such as the Talk:Supercars Championship to gain the most opinions. Please consider the implications of WP:3RR before reverting again. Dvzk (talk) 11:27, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Coding
You keep deleting tons of clear spaces in the infoboxes, spaces that are added to help editors see what is what. You also keep adding "File:" to the images in infoboxes, please stop doing that. Thanks.  Mr.choppers &#124;  ✎  04:10, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You're still not being very clear. Clear spaces with the lead images in the infobox? With other info? I've just made another edit to try and address those problems I think you're specifiying, but you'll have to be more clear with what you find wrong. The images I am trying to reinstate are objectively better in fitting in with the rest of the article. - Cement4802 (talk) 04:28, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Click this, you will see that a large number of blank spaces (highlighted on the left) were removed in your edit. Might be a problem with your browser, but it didn't happen with your most recent edit. I don't have a lot to say about the choice of images.  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  05:27, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Fastback/Liftback/Hatchback
Fastback simply describes the shape of the rear of a car. Hatchback/liftback, on the other hand, describe defined functions and the shape of the rear. Your edits needlessly confused matters and at least the edits at Fastback were not in any way supported by your sources (one being a rhyming dictionary). Fastbacks can be sedans, coupés, or liftbacks, just as how the Daihatsu Applause is an example of a notchback hatch.  Mr.choppers &#124;  ✎  02:59, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * We can meet in the middle; ive reverted back on the hatchback article, where the definition was CLEARLY a lot more confusing before, with a larger number of unsourced edits and conflicting definitions. I might tweak some definitions here and there but the edits i made on the hatchback article were clearer and more coherent in explaining the differences in body shape. This also includes descriptions such as "fastback" in the article which like you just described, has nothing to do with the functionality and thus now has even more reason not to be compared to hatchbacks. The focus should be on hatchbacks vs liftbacks primarily, where they share the same tailgate functionality. - Cement4802 (talk) 09:46, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Rename "B-segment" to "B-segment (Europe)" & Create new "B-segment (Worldwide)"
I have a proposal to make two separate pages, one for Europe and the other for the world:

B-segment (Europe) B-segment (Worldwide)

That would stop the dispute and everyone would be satisfied.

What do you think?

Go buy one of those images from a stock website or something. Literally found one with just a few seconds of searching.

 * Thanks for letting me know, but I really only just source these images from the train's wikimedia commons gallery. The image i put in was placed in the IMU 100 series category and I just went off of that, so not entirely my fault. I'm not from Queensland so I'm not awfully familiar with all the intricate details of the QR rolling stock, i'm simply here to improve the articles with what's available. I'll try and source a more accurate image - Cement4802 (talk) 08:19, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

July 2021
Hi, it's me again. Like I said, a lot of people on the Facebook appreciation group for the NSW TrainLink D set say the earliest these trains will enter service 2022. Every time I say "best case scenario Q3 2021", they say "no 2022". Please tell me which source information you read that says it's been outlined that the new trains will enter service in 2021 not 2022 and send it to me because I need to know when exactly in 2021 they will enter service. Edgar Searle (talk) 08:31, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Again, the personal anecdotal opinions of a few people on a facebook group do not count as being a reliable source. As per Wikipedia's policies, information is sourced from reliable and official material, such as news articles, press releases or official government statements. This is the cited article in question, which outlines that the trains will be introduced in 2021. Although it doesn't specify when in 2021, we still write our articles corresponding to what is written in official reliable sources. It doesn't matter if you personally disagree with the source. Unless you can find another reliable, unbiased source that specifies a different date to what is already displayed in the article, the date should remain as "2021". - Cement4802 (talk) 09:51, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Understood, but again, outlined does not 100% mean it's true. And like I said, it's unlikely we're gonna see them enter service while Sydney is in lockdown at this rate. I need a source information that provides an exact date of when it will enter service. Do you think leaving the Facebook appreciation group for the NSW TrainLink D set is a reasonable response? Edgar Searle (talk) 22:21, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Facebook is not a reliable source. Again, until you can find an alternative reliable source that has a more specific date for when they enter service, the current date should not be changed. It doesn't matter if YOU personally find it incorrect, it's the best source we have at the moment - Cement4802 (talk) 01:46, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Also another thing, as to traction equipment but I'm not sure if you know anything about them. I've been reading the best source information I could find, but I couldn't find which type of transistor technology (IGBT or SiC) these trains use. I know that these trains will be using VVVF inverters supplied by Mitsubishi Electric, but I don't either know yet if the motor (obviously I know now that your only motor choice is in a 3-phase configuration, and AC motors are now required for VVVF drives in order to vary the frequency) will be a regular induction motor or a synchronous motor with permanent magnets. I'd appreciate it if you could provide me a reliable source of information such as a website or a PDF document that says which type of motors these trains will use, ensuring that it at least says IGBT or SiC.

Sydney Water Head Office
Hi there. I'm not sure what your objection to including the Chinese name is precisely. However, the hotel is definitely branded bilingually on the ground - have a look at the main sign at the front door on Pitt Street. The fact is, this is a hotel which is owned by a Chinese government-owned company and operated by a chain which is also Chinese government-owned. It is helpful for readers to be able to connect it to the rest of the chain, for which the Chinese name is much better known than the English. It is also notable that this is the first foray of the Chinese government into building new luxury hotels - and that content is referenced. Ownership and management does not seem to be of interest to you, which is fine, but it is of interest to other readers reading about hotels. Most other articles on luxury hotels note this information. --49.255.252.131 (talk) 05:08, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

I don't think you understood
It's me again. When you had removed my constructive edit to Alstom Metropolis (Sydney Metro) you didn't actually read that the source was listed at the bottom of the article, separate from the other references. Please ensure you read all references, external links, further reading and sources included in an article very, very carefully before checking its revision history. I've moved it to the reference list for now, but I can't get the PDF link to work; you're gonna have to purchase it on the link provided. Edgar Searle (talk)
 * Edgar, that's not how you cite sources. Unless it's an external link (usually only used for official government/company websites), you need to properly add a full citation that includes a reference number next to the text in the page, and the full reference in the footnote section at the bottom of the page (basically like all the other citations you see in wikipedia pages). If you're not familiar with doing it manually, there's an easy, simple cite function in the visual editor. - Cement4802 (talk) 04:02, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, I had to temporarily do it that way because I couldn't get a PDF link to work like I said, so to download and read that full source you will have to purchase it on the link provided. I can't change the link unfortunately, so we'll just have to look for another link that allows us to download without having to pay, because when I downloaded the PDF, Chrome gave me a warning that the file from the URL couldn't download securely, so I pressed "keep" and then it downloaded successfully.

Hi, Cement4802. I note that you have removed well-sourced text from Sky News Australia and have changed the description of the network as being "widely considered to have a significant right-wing to far-right bias" to "conservative to right-wing bias". When you were reverted, by two different editors, you edit warred to reinstall your versions, in preference to going to the talkpage to attempt to get consensus for your versions. This is disruptive editing. Please don't revert again, and use the talkpage. Bishonen &#124; tålk 09:06, 9 September 2021 (UTC).
 * The edits were made without any consultation from the talk page. I'm simply reverting the page back to how it was before. I'm not the one making any new edits - Cement4802 (talk) 09:27, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Seriously? You are arguing that just to add one sentence updating an earlier view by the same person needs approval on the talk page? Where did you get that idea? Doug Weller  talk 09:31, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

reFill must be carefully checked every time
In your edits of 15 September 2021 of Daniel Ricciardo, you installed some thoroughly bollixed references, including the unworkable

which I corrected to

and there were two others like it that I also fixed.

Moral: reFill and the visual editor's citation tool are powerful and useful tools, but results are not guaranteed and must be carefully inspected each and every time. Australian news sites are particularly likely to get messed up. —Anomalocaris (talk) 00:50, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Wow, this is confusing. It's clear that when  created the SPI, they (accidentally, I assume) created it under the wrong username.  When I performed the blocks, I looked at the original note from Drmies, but didn't catch the difference in names, so I just went ahead and blocked using spi-helper, which automatically picked up the usernames as contained in the SPI.  I just ran some checks.  I agree that  Democfestys, Democfesty, and Unicorn123SL have exactly the same technical data (i.e. "confirmed"), and Democfest appears to be unrelated.  There is one interesting tidbit, however, which I'm not sure I should divulge in public, so I've just left a note on cuwiki.

Sydney images
Hi there, good work on the Sydney images. I'd recommend adding pictures of Sydney Central Station, Parramatta, and Darling Harbour.

Cheers Poketama (talk) 07:15, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks, i did consider central station and darling harbour, but central doesn't seem to be as significant of a cultural landmark as the other examples i ended up picking. Darling Harbour - i really struggled to find a quality image that physically fit into the photomontage (most of the images are wide panoramas) and most of the shots of darling harbour are simply too far away to make out any detail. Parramatta, i dunno about that - that's an entire suburb, not a specific place or landmark Democfest (talk) 11:22, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Indonesian IP
Is it time to try to block this Indonesian whose life mission seems to be adding thousands of pictures to every article? I am pretty sure we have explained WP:NOTGALLERY to them ad infinitum in the past, but since it is impossible to carry out a conversation with an ip I can't say for sure. Is it even worth the trouble to block an IP address? Best,  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  16:23, 14 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Definitely a nuisance. I'm suprised no one else has found him/her unbearably annoying yet. You have my support in restricting/blocking the account but we'd have to go quite far in doing so as the IP address keeps changing every now and then. Absolutely sick and tired of cleaning up his/her mess everyday. Democfest (talk) 00:50, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Mitsubishi Mirage Pictures
I do not know why you have to edit the pictures out, versions like the Mirage Cyborg-R and Lancer GTi are special and have specific (visual) upgrades, so they are definitely a nice addition. I can assume most people visiting this page want to see which model looks like what, especially these perfomance versions - I let the others out. Also, three or four pictures in a gallery are NOT excessive. And the pictures have a good quality and are far from bad. I don't know what your claim is, but if these pics aren't good enough for you, then I'm clueless which picture is. Greetings - Grünkohlaktionär (talk) 16:58, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

September 2023
Hello. I have noticed that you edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Drmies (talk) 17:13, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
