Ethnic Groups of Europe
Hi Jeppiz,

I have recently read the Ethnic groups of Europe article and your comments thereon. I agree with much of what you said. I also think this is an important article.

Why were the changes you proposed rejected? Would you be willing to do something about them again?

Thanks (Stpaul (talk) 04:53, 5 January 2016 (UTC))

Apology
Jeppiz, I really hope my rudeness today didn't upset you too much. What you wrote (and erased again, which I do appreciate) might be right or not, it doesn't matter here, I misread a situation and lost it and you shouldn't have been at the receiving end of it. I'm trying to stay out of those dog-eat-dog topics, where nothing can be left standing, not even the obvious, precisely to avoid getting into such situations, but this Middle East ditch is one big hole with no bottom in sight and I keep on stumbling in. Sorry. Good night, Arminden (talk) 23:48, 15 January 2016 (UTC)ArmindenArminden (talk) 23:48, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you Arminden], and I'm at least as much at fault, so my apologies. We both got a bit carried away but the important thing is we can put it behind us. All the best! [[User:Jeppiz|Jeppiz (talk) 12:52, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Which sock puppeteer?
Hi Jeppiz, you have mentioned that 31.219.124.159 (the anon IP from the Emirates that you've been reverting these past few minutes) is a sock. I was wondering who the sock master is; maybe? - HyperGaruda (talk) 12:54, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Possible, there are some similarities. He used at least 50-60 different IPs during the autumn. Jeppiz (talk) 12:56, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

A Dobos torte for you!
Sorry for unintentionally disrupting your revert at Opa Locka, Florida. Keep up the good work. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:00, 18 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks 7&amp;6=thirteen. I was surprised when I saw it, but you self-reverted immediately so no harm done. I've done mistakes like that myself, we're all humans at it happens. Keep up the good work! Jeppiz (talk) 17:02, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Shit happens. Especially if you do enough edits.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:10, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Exactly, you try to revert vandalism and every now and then you end up reverting a good edit or even reverting someone who reverted vandalism. I just wish I had noticed it as quickly as you each time it has happened to me. Cheers! Jeppiz (talk) 17:15, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I try (not always successful) to look at the page after I edit. Mainly I catch half-assed edits, less than complete templates or wandering finger typos.  But looking at the printed page helps.
 * As my father used to say: "Don't start vast projects with half-vast ideas." 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 17:24, 18 January 2016 (UTC) 7&amp;6=thirteen (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 17:22, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

Hindi
Read the talk page and the archives. There is a long-standing problem of people trying to inflate the numbers at this article because they don't understand the scope of the article. The article is only about Modern Standard Hindi, not every dialect/variety called "Hindi". For example, the numbers they try to include counts speakers of Fijian Hindi, which is a separate variety covered by the Fiji Hindi article.--William Thweatt TalkContribs 12:07, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Apologies William, I obviously didn't check well enough. Thanks for pointing this out! Jeppiz (talk) 12:19, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
