Removing my report
Why are you replacing my report in WP:AIAV with yours? Timothytyy (talk) 13:36, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * My apologies. There was an edit conflict. I assumed that you removed yours preemptively. Styx &#38; Stones (talk) 13:39, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Never mind. Btw what should we do to the editor? I don't think admins are here to block him/her. Timothytyy (talk) 13:42, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Maybe you can add to my note, just advising the admins that we've tried to reason with them? See if they do it again. Styx &#38; Stones (talk) 13:43, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I think the admins will block him within ten minutes if they don't doubt our warnings, according to my former experiences. Also thank you for your active participation in anti-vandalism work! Timothytyy (talk) 13:46, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Just saw your comment
Hello User:Styx & Stones, just saw, but I'm not sure which particular edit that you are having a problem with since all of my additions either have a citation or refers to work that is already been cited in the main part of the article. I am more that happy to provide additional citations to help clarify any confusion that my edits may have been brought to you. (Hint: the use of the Diff template helps clarify discussions concerning particular edits on Talk Pages.) -- 108.71.214.235 (talk) 06:18, 15 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, it was in relation to . Particularly when you said in the edit summary: "just discovered that the stock was traded under the name Great Western Financial Corp". Styx &#38; Stones (talk) 07:06, 15 November 2022 (UTC)


 * No problem. Even though the NYSE stock ticker symbol is mention to be for the company "Great Western Financial" in all the news related to its 1997 merger to Washington Mutual, such as this citation, I rewrote the main section to make it less ambiguous. I hope the new editions helped clarify the matter. If not, I will add more citations. Thanks. -- 108.71.214.235 (talk) 07:59, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages
Hello, as a heads-up, I reverted your edit on National anthem of Hong Kong as references don't belong on disambiguation pages (MOS:DABNOLINK). The references should be added on the linked page instead. Thanks! Bailmoney27 talk 17:44, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

All good. Styx &#38; Stones (talk) 17:45, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Save Indian Family Foundation
Hi, I have revised the page post your copyright strike. Please let me know if this can be removed or anything else is required. It also seems the website which is being cited as a source is actually copied from earlier version of the wikipedia page of Save Indian Family Foundation.

Status of World Bank info
I may have malformed my ping to you here Talk:Economy_of_Moldova. It appears you think World Bank sites are public domain. I'd like to get some clarification, because at least one editor is taking new your word for it. If I'm wrong, I need to know, because World Bank sites are commonly used as sources.

 * Hmmm...well,, I thought the same thing about my ping but it appears Styx hasn't edited since the 22nd. Hope everything's ok.  Atsme  💬 📧 17:57, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
