Google test
I have not found it necessary to contest any of your recent deletion proposals, but I wish you would stop referring to some "Google test". Such a thing does not exist. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:45, 27 April 2023 (UTC)


 * @Phil Bridger Actually, Google testing does exist, to the point where there's a how-to guide on it. I'm using it to distinguish between an article that needs to be nominated for deletion and one that needs a sources exist tag. It's one reason why you don't find it necessary to contest my deletions. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 22:10, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
 * If the test leads to Henze's 10th symphony suggested for deletion it's not a good test. I added 2 sources, too tired for more. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:50, 3 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Gerda Arendt Typically, it's more accurate. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 22:53, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

Question from Giltsbeach (10:47, 4 May 2023)
Hey, I've been dealing with a troll the last month and I don't know if, how, or where to report it. Can you point me to some resources and the appropriate noticeboard? --Giltsbeach (talk) 10:47, 4 May 2023 (UTC)

Reviewing additions I made
I added information to George Gliddon Samuel George Morton and Josiah C. NottThis isn’t spam because they all shared similar views. If you could kindly review it and maybe fix it up

i saw you in my alerts Markj573 (talk) 18:46, 7 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Markj573 I don't understand why you're defending your edits. As far as I'm aware, none of them have been reverted or criticized. I just added a welcome template to your talk page. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 18:48, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
 * good. Just explaining why I added them three times Markj573 (talk) 18:56, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Markj573 You seem anxious. New editors now have access to a "newcomer homepage" that might help you acclimate to things. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 18:57, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reassurance :) Markj573 (talk) 01:15, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

I want to know reson behind removal of Scorecard links in the section Australia in South Africa. See: New Zealand cricket team in England in 2023. Axjuo (talk) 16:39, 9 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Axjuo I've already replied to an identical message on your talk page. Please keep the discussion there. in advance. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 16:42, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Question
Do you really dream about horses? Notrealname1234 (talk) 16:45, 10 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Notrealname1234 Not really, it was just an impulsive decision. I don't actually regret it. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 19:30, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

1930 US Senate imagemap
Hello, I dream of horses. I noticed that you recently declined my submission for an imagemap for the 1930 US Senate elections, saying that should just "add the image" to the articles instead of using a template. Could you provide some clarification on what you mean? Thank you, PrusBis6187 (talk) 01:57, 15 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @PrusBis6187 Just add File:1930 United States Senate elections results map.svg directly to articles. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 02:04, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The image is already on the article for the 1930 US Senate elections. I was creating an imagemap template so that you could click on a state on the map and be directed to the article for that state's specific election (this is the case for all US Senate election pages after 1930). PrusBis6187 (talk) 02:22, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @PrusBis6187 My bad; the template has been accepted. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 02:25, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem at all. PrusBis6187 (talk) 02:41, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Question from Kalmus1917 (11:06, 16 May 2023)
Hello! I have a question. Will my draft of Jacek Ambroziak article be accepted? I've added the original sources a while ago, but I can make more changes if they are necessary.

Have a nice day --Kalmus1917 (talk) 11:06, 16 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Kalmus1917 It might take a few months for drafts to be accepted; there's a significant backlog. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 17:30, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

May 2023 - Yashwant manohar
Hello I dream of horses, the content I added is from a singular source but it was published by one of the most credible sources in Indian literature and is from 2009. see Sahitya Akademi. There is not much else about the author elsewhere, I was merely expanding the article with the bio that sahitya akademi published Miximon (talk) 02:40, 17 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Miximon Actually, I was commenting on the fact that it wasn't neutral. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 03:12, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Ah I'll look out for that Miximon (talk) 04:16, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

A message from Technopat
Hi I dream of horses! Sorry to bother you, but it's waaaay past my bedtime and I need to get this off my chest... I'm still only halfway through reverting the massive vandalism caused by an IP you ever-so-nicely welcomed to the project.

While I agree, in principle, on welcoming IPs/registered users who commit minor deviations from what can be considered acceptable constructive and productive edits (and I'm telling you this proudly as one who has been able to "reconvert" two smart-ass vandals who later made it to admins — as per their own email communications with me throughout the processes), may I please ask you to at least follow up on those you welcome rather than leave it up to the rest of the community to sort out if/when things go awry?

I realise that no one is on here 24/7 but I'm sure you'll agree that there has to be some sorta plan/strategy to welcoming any IP/registered user with an unproven history of edits. By the time you left your welcome, the IP had already made half a dozen vandal edits which you should/could have spotted.

As I mentioned above, it's way past my bedtime and I shouldn't be editing, so I hope the tone is civil enough for you not to take this note badly... but rather in the spirit of how it's meant: consider the pros and cons of erring on the side of caution when welcoming people... and then maybe follow up on their edits.

OK, that's it! I'm outta here... G'night!

Technopat (talk) 23:10, 16 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Technopat I would've helped out with reverting the vandalism if you had come to me earlier as a way of apologizing. Not my proudest moment of assuming good faith. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 23:15, 16 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi again, I dream of horses! Just want to apologise for my little rant last night. I was venting my frustration at the evident fact that that particular IP, like so many others, would be back under a new IP to carry out a mission. Shouldn't have taken it out on you. I apologise. --Technopat (talk) 05:37, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Technopat No, you're fine, you just had a moment. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 20:23, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Softball at the 1920 Summer Olympics
Can you check this over. It looks to be about some demo games at the 1912 games in Stockholm, Sweden and not Antwerp, Belgium in 1920. Nthep (talk) 13:21, 19 May 2023 (UTC)


 * ditto Softball at the 1948 Summer Olympics which is about 1936. Nthep (talk) 13:57, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Nthep Any reason you can't change the information yourself? I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 18:23, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * No, but I wanted you to be aware first. Looking at all the IP's creations, they are all the wrong Olympiads. Apart from that I'm not sure of the notability of demonstration events. Nthep (talk) 21:02, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Nthep "[Sports] at the Olympics" tend to stick around, though whether or not that should change can be put up to debate. But yeah, this is both bizarre and frankly unexpected. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 21:05, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Can't be redraftified afaik, so delete as hoax, or amend and move? Nthep (talk) 21:30, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * @Nthep Perhaps an AfD is in order? I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 21:32, 19 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I've PROD'd them. Nthep (talk) 13:56, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

Edits on User talk:穢翆聘莅囘穢
Hi, I'm Lemonaka and I'd just like to share this idea with you. First in first, they are using Japanese, not Chinese. "そごうの" or "いかなる" are obvious Japanese character. These are called Hiragana and they are listed on Table of hiragana Next, when you find someone creates messy Japanese pages on their user pages or user talk pages, then immediately blanked them, you can just report to WP:SPI, they are just other sockpuppets of user:あすぺるがあすぺしゃりすと. -Lemonaka‎ 18:24, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello modification on Visa requirements for Chinese citizens was not a test. I am doing sync from zh.wikipedia for my updates there, since there is a change to the map and the same map occur on the English wiki too. GodCallMeGod (talk) 23:09, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi! We just realized that someone has reverted wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Betancourt_(artist) to the old one. The old one someone keeps editing the first paragraph with nonsense, even the name from Carlos Betancourt to Bipin...( I am actually Carlos Betancourt, who this page talks about). So yesterday my studio and gallery team and I spent 5 hours fixing and updating the page as someone from Univeristy of Miami doing research on my artwork had send a text telling us that the Wikipedia page first paragraph has been altered with the wrong name, info etc. After updating and publishing the new version, we wake up this morning to see it reverted. Even the first paragraph when back to the altered wrong name:

Bipin GaunsDessai, born in 2001 in Goa, is a Goan artist generally described as a Meme creator and video creator artist. Known also as The Goan Content creator, his works explore issues of memory and his own experiences. Influenced by these personal memories which he explores, he believes that art can be formed by one's personal experiences

This page is not about Bipin.....from Goa.We don't even know who this is. Does this has anything to do with I dream ofhorse? Not sure why this is happening but would like our new edits to remain. We are by no means experts in Wikipedia but a lot of people use it to do research on my artwork...

In any case, we will go in today and update the page to the new revised version. thanks.

Carlos Betancourt

Posibilities (talk) 17:36, 26 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @Posibilities Since you are Carlos Betancourt, and since your gallery and studio team work for you, please use request edit on the talk here. The rare exception is if you're reverting blatant vandalism (changing your name to "Bipin," etc.) I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 17:51, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi Dream of Horses. Thank you for explaining. We are not familiar with edit summary. We will go aheads and describe in the edit summary link you sent. Greatly appreciate your reply to understand better how Wikipedia works. We just noticed again and again that all the new edits keep being reverted. This page has not been updated since 2018 and all the new information we are adding keeps being removed. Even the first paragraph was once again reverted....

You moved Draft:Ann_Bowers out of mainspace today. It has more than enough references and notability. Please move it back. Thanks! --ConstantPlancks (talk) 01:03, 27 May 2023 (UTC)


 * @ConstantPlancks Yes, you've added reference since I moved it out of mainspace. You can add {{subst:submit}} to submit the draft. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 02:20, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
