Edit Explanation (The Cat Came Back (1936 film))
Hello Hillelfrei,

The reason I applied that edit was because it was not the 1936 Merrie Melodies film that was placed on the Top 100 Animated Cartoon List in 1994, but it was the 1988 National Film Board of Canada film that was placed on the list. Considering the identical titles, I am guessing the original editor made a mistake in placing that caption under the 1936 film (it misled me initially). Anyways, I edited it in order to reflect on that, and I am sorry for not stating that within an explanation. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.230.198.217 (talk) 17:09, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the explanation. No big deal, I went back and removed the content. Just next time you remove content, please remember to explain why in your edit summary. If you have any questions about editing Wikipedia, feel free to come back here and ask, I'm happy to help. Hillelfrei   talk   17:33, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

adding citation
How do I add a citation to an edit? Thank you for the assistance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.20.134.124 (talk) 04:35, 21 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hey there. The first step is to find a source from the internet that Lise Meitner was a chessmaster. The source should fit the criteria at Reliable Sources - it's pretty straightforward, any reliable news website is fine. Once you find the source, cite it properly - if you are unsure how, there is an easy guide at WP:EASYREFBEGIN. Please let me know if anything is unclear and I'll be happy to help. Kind regards, Hillelfrei   talk   04:39, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Homero Gómez González
Hi you, why did you remove the reaction we posted to Wikipedia? You write it is "inappropriate" for an encyclopedia, but ist is an action as the result of the death of Mr. Gómez González, and further more even the media have reported about that honouring. Or could you give a hint in what way that information could be appropriate? Thank you very much. Edit: 18.40...Oh, I see, you removed a link. Ok, I can understand that, all right. I have made the entry now without that link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Umweltschutzundlebenshilfe (talk • contribs) 16:33, 22 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I restored the content I removed - I admit the rollback was uncalled for. Just want to point out that we don't link words in articles to external websites - if you were trying to use the link as a source, there is a standardized way to cite it which is described here. Please let me know if you have any questions. Hillelfrei   talk   16:44, 22 May 2020 (UTC)


 * @Hillelfrei Thank you very much. I think you are right that putting the link was not what Wikipedia wants. I have removed the link and changed the content a bit. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Umweltschutzundlebenshilfe (talk • contribs) 16:56, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

IP Vandals
Hi @, mind looking into the IP vandals on Héctor Armando Cabada Alvídrez? There seems to be "multiple" IPs adding the close to the same text to the article (Lego man). Maybe they're using a proxy? Thanks! xRENEGADEx ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 21:46, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure. I also just requested temporary page protection for sockpuppetry. Hillelfrei   talk   21:58, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

Why why
Why did u delete my post on davidos page....I place the new update and days all JmilestheSA (talk) 16:24, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I reverted your edit to Davido because it was written in an unencyclopedic manner, and it was new information about a living person which did not cite any sources. This is a requirement in every article, but it is enforced more harshly when it comes to articles about living people, because Wikipedia can't afford to include false information about the subjects of such articles. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks, Hillelfrei   talk   02:19, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Pinetree Secondary Edits
Hi Hillelfrei this is pinetree ambassador. I can promise you that I have no intention of promoting/advertising Pinetree Secondary School through Wiki. I am trying to include notable information throughout the school's history that other people can be informed about. I will cite all my sources so please give me time to cite each source instead of deleting my comments right after I make a change. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PinetreeAmbassador (talk • contribs) 05:31, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Sorry
Had been an edit conflig of restoring the versions of Isabel Diaz Ayuso, we reverted concurrently. Sorry. CommanderWaterford (talk) 17:23, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Czech Rep broken links vs Czechs accurate citation
Hi, Thank you for your note. I have found broken links that I attempted to correct but failed. For example, the links work under "Czechs" but do not under "Czech Republic". Here it is for your reference: The population of the Czech Republic descends from diverse peoples of Slavic, Celtic and Germanic origin.[32][19][33][34] Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zdenamos (talk • contribs)


 * Ok, thanks for clarifying. I would help you, but the whole "dead link" thing is something which is beyond me. Feel free to ask for help at the Teahouse help forum. Hillelfrei   talk   17:30, 27 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Noted with thanks. I’ll research it further by tomorrow. I’m still learning ;-) Zdenamos (talk) 01:27, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Jack Buckby
Thank you for removing the warning. I should add that I don't believe I violated the policy you mentioned, which bans you from removing things multiple times within 24 hours. I was actually very communicative but the anonymous user is not communicating and has made a few unsubstantiated claims about sources being "alt right" which is untrue, and that the source used was "commissioned" by the person who the biography is about which there is zero evidence of.

They also claim that the person in question, Jack Buckby, does not criticize the far right when there are many instances of him writing articles, books, and doing interviews where he criticizes the far right.

I am still struggling to grasp wikipedia fully but I think somebody needs to step in to fix that as it looks like personal political grievance is getting in the way of portraying this person accurately. While they have a far right person, is it not important to also note that they criticize the far right today? I wonder if you might help me in getting a dispute resolution on this as I am unsure how to proceed as the pages are quite confusing. Rosswikieditor (talk) 14:26, 28 May 2020 (UTC)Rosswikieditor


 * Thank you for your message. I think the best idea right now would to be to start a post at WP:BLPN and notify the other editors in hopes of reaching a conclusion. Hillelfrei   talk   14:29, 28 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I read some messages on your talk page and I see you have expressed an interest in learning more about Wikipedia so I sent you a welcome template just because it includes some helpful links about contributing. Also, you might want to check back on your post at BLPN because you have some replies. Feel free to let me know if you have any Wikipedia-related questions in the future.

 * Hi Hillefrei, I wonder whether you could take a look at the post at BLPN. The anonymous user has repeatedly used personal emotion to remove content from the page. The content being removed is literally a sentence describing the most recent work from the person whose biography we are working on. A factual statement about what a person says is not contentious in the slightest but this person is expressing a great deal of emotion and appears to have political motives. I am struggling with this one - I'm not sure how to report political bias? Or how to go about ending this edit war and vandalism? Thanks for your help, sorry to bother you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rosswikieditor (talk • contribs)


 * You make good points, and I can see how frustrating this can be for you, especially when the IP editor counters your logical arguments with clearly emotional messages. I understand you want this resolved now - it has been approximately 24 hours since the discussion has started. Usually, if the discussion does not reach a conclusion after a couple of days, more editors and admins start getting involved and these things generally see a natural resolution. You certainly made your points as well as you could, I suggest you slow down the argument - if you slow it down, the other side will naturally do so as well, and you can wait a couple of days to see who else chips in. The noticeboard is where the conclusion should be made. If this was a sophisticated discussion about changing Wikipedia policy, for example, with tens or hundreds of editors, the Arbitration Committee would get involved. However, for these types of content disputes, there is no next step. I recommend you give it time and see what happens, and there is no need to pressure yourself and check in often so you don't miss a chance to reply - editors will see what you've said. Please do not edit the article in the meantime. Although you are rightfully frustrated, you have now violated WP:3RR, which stands even during a discussion. So please be patient, as hard as it is. If you do not get your way, I hope you will not walk away from this encounter despising Wikipedia and thinking of it as a non-neutral encyclopedia, which is what we strive to be, but I do understand that you would have grounds to think that way. Just so you know, I will be away for a couple of days and may not have a chance to reply to you. Regards, Hillelfrei   talk   23:56, 28 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I was using this page to learn the ropes and I have just been shocked by it. And the fact that emotional arguments are being given a pass. I'll leave it now but it's hard to ignore the bias. I will wait and see what happens. Thanks again.

Jerusalem–Malha railway station
You reverted edits I made in Jerusalem–Malha railway station.

I am trying to take the existing information in the history section and clarify and reorganize it because it is outdated and contains is a mishmash of links and references the old and new railway lines between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem and do so by separating it into two paragraphs so that it is clearer exactly what is what. Hopefully that also helps travelers from taking the wrong line and ending up in the wrong part of town. I will put back my changes and if you have more specific feedback as to changes please let me know. 108.39.42.73 (talk) 14:48, 31 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I am in the wrong here - my rollback was uncalled for. Thanks for patiently re-adding the content. Hillelfrei   talk   15:07, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
