Dear Ms. (Jessica) Pierce ...

... This is Robert F. Frazier. I'm an "American Politician" & long-time trial lawyer (46+ years). Earlier in 2020 I tried to add all of my offices held in my career (My "Wiki" Article currently only.lists one.) with my own Edit. Later-on you removed all that I added with the comment "[It] looks like a CV".

Please allow me to assure you I wasn't posting a "CV"!! I'm going on 72 & am engaged in a 46+ years-long legal career (so far) & have completed (so far) a 53+ yeats-lomg political career in which I have held many elected & appointed offices. I assure you I'm NOT looking for a job NOR posting my "CV" ... ha, ha ... I would just like my "Wiki" Article to be accurate, & as completd as others who are designated "American Politicians".

Frankly, I was quite non-plussed when you designated my attempt to supplement the very spartan existing article (My Parents aren't even identified!!) as some sort of attempt by me to post my "CV"!! I'll be 72 this coming May 30, 2021. & I assure you I neither am looking to be hired nor do I need to be hired ... ha, ha!! I simply would like my career recounted on the same complete basis accorded to other American Politicians & Lawyers!!

Could you propose what I could do to avoid this problem (Your removal of my true & actual career details) & obtain a "Wiki" Article that fairly presents my career??

Michael Olowokandi
Hi Jessica, I made edited changes with supporting references on Michael Olowokandi but you reverted it back. Melchizedek123 (talk) 22:34, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

He played 36 games in the 2002–2003 season before sustaining an injury that forced him to miss the rest of the season. In his last year with the Los Angeles Clippers, he sustained a hernia and knee injury, which greatly hindered his ability after being listed as a top free agent prospect for the 2002–03 season. He finished that season averaging 12.3 points (on 42.7% shooting from the floor) 9.1 rebounds, 2.2 blocks, and 2.7 turnovers per game. During that offseason, he signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves. His time with the Timberwolves was marked by serious injury which resulted inconsistent play. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melchizedek123 (talk • contribs) 22:37, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

Notable achievements from his best season was a season high 30 points vs the Chicago bulls on March 8th. "Olowokandi contributes to sweet Clipper win". He followed it with a 24 point and 10 rebound effort in a win vs Golden States on Nov 19th 2002. Olowokandi helped his team defeat the San Antonio Spurs in San Antonio for the first time in five years on Dec 17th 2002-Olowokandi contributed an effort of 17 points and 18 rebounds and 4 block shots against Tim Duncan of the San Antonio Spurs shooting 67% from the field. Olowokandi scored 19 points against the Miami Heat. Olowokandi led his team and scored 21 points in the Clipper's victory against the Orlando Magic. Olowokandi led his team in points and rebounds scoring 19 points and grabbing a career high 20 rebounds against the Detroit pistons on Nov 3rd 2002. He again led his team in points and rebounds on Oct 31st 2002 with 18 points and 13 rebounds. Olowokandi led his team in rebounds against the Sacramento Kings with 12 rebounds on Nov 21st 2002. He led his team in rebounds on Nov 8th with 9 rebounds in a win over the New Jersey Nets. He again led his team in rebounds on Dec 19th with 10 rebounds against the Portland Trail Blazers. In a victory against the Memphis Grizzlies on Jan 9th he led his team with 10 rebounds. "I thought Olowokandi was incredible," San Antonio Coach Gregg Popovich said after watching him score 26 points and take 17 rebounds in the Spurs' victory over the Clippers on Monday. "He definitely was all over the floor. He really kept us honest down there and really made a game of it." . Olowokandi made good on his claim that he was the second best center in the NBA before the unfortunate episode of his knee and Hernia Injury. . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melchizedek123 (talk • contribs) 22:40, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

H.M. Hoover - October 2018 revision of entry
Hello Jessicapierce. First of all, are you a registered editor of Wikipedia who monitors new entries? And out of interest, which country are you from? If you are American, then of course you may be in a better position than me, to amend an entry of an American author, in terms of the names of American towns and cities. As you know I attempted to update the Wikipedia entry for H.M. Hoover, following recent news of her death, because I was her penfriend. I am disappointed that the majority of my amendments, on 8 October 2018, were rejected, either by the system or by you. My aim was to enter data that pointed out that Helen Mary Hoover had died, the date she died, and an obituary website link to confirm that she had died - that bit was accepted, and is on the current entry. What was rejected, were my comments about H.M. Hoover, based on my knowledge, and my brief summaries of some of her books, which I wrote to celebrate her work. Why were they rejected, and what can I do to make those comments acceptable to Wikipedia? I am glad that you acknowledge that my notes were written in good faith, because they were. I admit that I am not a regular contributor to Wikipedia, so I do lack the technical experience - the Help notes look really complicated!! So where did I go wrong? What if I wish to repeat the notes that I wanted added? For example, I know I read a printed document long ago, why Helen Hoover called herself H.M. Hoover - but I am not sure if proof of it is on the internet - but I could look. Also, what do I need to do, to re-submit my summaries of her books, in terms of what each story is about? Wikipedia entries about books always say what the book is about - but how do you provide verification of what you are saying? Am I supposed to find a mention in the internet? But what if there is no full length review on the internet? For example, if I do look up one of Hoover's books, I might find an entry on the Amazon website, which would sell an old copy of the book, and provide a brief description. Or there may be a brief description on the Goodreads website. Would either website link be enough to justify my book summary? But there is no verification for the list of books and their year of publication, in the current entry. By the way, I am surprised that you replaced the word "was", back to the word "is", in the entry. I thought it was correct to say that Helen Hoover "was an American children's writer", because she has died. Also, Hoover did live in Burke once, but how do I prove that using the internet? I don't know if Wikipedia will accept photos or scan copies of book cover author descriptions, if they are not available on the internet already. I would appreciate advice from you. From Patrick Lee, United Kingdom. 14 October 2018.Patrick21london (talk) 17:16, 14 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for getting in touch. If you'll check the current version of H. M. Hoover, you'll see that I did re-add her death date and changed "is" to "was." Your updates on that point were appreciated, but your edit needed to be reverted based on other issues. These were mostly minor points such as incomplete sentences and broken formatting.


 * The more serious problem was the lack of sources. I do appreciate that you included a link to her obituary (although its formatting was broken - you can always use the Preview button to avoid this). The claim about her name (Helen vs. H.M.) really does need proof, as it's a stated claim about someone's life. The Help documents can be daunting, but you may find Wikipedia's page on original research helpful.


 * When it comes to the book summaries, you make a good point - there may not be a way to "prove" that your descriptions are accurate. This is probably not really a problem. If you can find sources, that's great, but if not, I think most editors would accept your descriptions in good faith. I'm looking through the Help documents now, to see if I can find any more info on the topic, and if I do, I'll let you know. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:00, 14 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Ok, I've found a passage which applies here. Please see MOS:BOOKPLOT. Basically, a primary source (in this case, Hoover's books themselves) can be used as sources for descriptions of their plots. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:00, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

Hello Jessica. Thanks for replying. I will think about what you have read, should I try again to amend the entry for H.M. Hoover. By the way, who are you in Wikipedia? And which country are you from? Are you a registered editor who gets alerted of new entries on Wikipedia? I hope that you will be able to answer my questions, as it is a bit confusing that Wikipedia is free for all to edit, yet there are people such as yourself, who supervise and edit content. From Patrick. 14 October 2018. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrick21london (talk • contribs) 19:08, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
 * It doesn't really matter who or where I am; there are many editors here who watch all recent changes (you'll see a link to that on the left side of your screen), or monitor specific articles. I think I found your edits by patrolling for citation errors. Jessicapierce (talk) 20:05, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

Sia Page
You removed all of my edits, and I understand if I did them incorrectly. Could you maybe help me add it in and let me know what I should do differently? Lukeaanthony (talk) 13:28, 23 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi, I try to be as clear as possible in my edit summaries. Your Sia edit contained far too many errors to keep. To be a little more specific, my removal of your content, which you can see here, was because your addition contained an all-caps word, claim about number of youtube views with nonspecific date, no periods at ends of sentences, incorrectly punctuated movie title, incorrect date format, and other punctuation errors. In addition, you provided a source for only one of the three claims you made.
 * You need to be aware of Wikipedia style conventions, as laid out in the Manual of Style, such as how titles of songs and movies are punctuated. Aside from that, your contributions tend to have a lot of other errors, such as leaving punctuation off the ends of sentences. These issues need to be addressed, especially if you're adding non-crucial content to articles (trivia such as collaborations and singles - not major biographical info; these are fine to include, but the page would be fine without them, too). Other editors can always step in to fix minor issues, but the onus is really on you to submit your work in as correct a form as you can, or it risks being removed.

Hey Jessica, I just added a bit to Sia and tried the best I could. Could you give me any feedback on what I have done better and what I can work on. Thank you! Lukeaanthony (talk) 03:19, 24 October 2018 (UTC)Lukeaanthony

Soul food RE NCNW
Why should it be there? I believe the tangent into NCNW cookbook history reduces the quality of the article — it says undue weight is given to certain subjects and that certainly seems to be an area where that applies. Also, as you and I both know, it is important to have citations from reliable and relevant sources so that people who access this Wikipedia article are getting VALUABLE and credible information. Scholarly nor food literature include a significant discussion surrounding the impact of NCNW cookbooks in Soul Food. Perhaps you should find the citations for this information since you believe it should be included. Cheesesteaklover16 (talk) 13:20, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't see this as a tangent at all - the section mentions several specific authors of cookbooks, and I should think the National Council of Negro Women, being prominent enough to merit its own Wiki page, deserves equivalent mention. I don't think the inclusion of that paragraph weakens the article, especially as it underlines the connection between soul food and African-American culture and history. However, this is not a hill I wish to die on. If you'd like to re-remove it, feel free, but please include your rationale in the edit summary if you do. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 20:29, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Editing of an entry for Julian Holbrook (not initially created by myself)
Firstly I have to admit, being new to this game, that I am totally floundering in trying to edit a pre-existing entry not initially created by myself. The intended format of my additions never seems to come out in the preview in the way I have entered them, if I try to add a reference it then is presented together with several lines of what was intended to be main text in the reference area and I have yet to find any way of adding a photograph (even one that has been in the public domain for the last seventy-four years, published in practically every book written about Winston Churchill). You have informed me that because I have not added verifiable sources for my editing that you have archived this editing. The main source for my additions was Julian Holbrook himself. I had a series of face-to-face interviews with him during his lifetime and made notes. My editing (which is only adding some flesh on the very bare bones of his existing entry) comes principally from these notes. How do I express these notes as a reference source and how many times do I have to quote it, after every additional or slightly amended sentence I have written? (I would like to have the amended entry up and running by the centenary of Armistice Day for the benefit of his great-grandchildren.) Rose-Marie Holbrook (talk) 17:23, 6 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi there, it sounds like you're frustrated, which is understandable. Regarding the formatting issues, you may find this tutorial helpful, as well as WP:CITE. I'm not an expert on the photo issue, so you may want to ask for help (about photos, or anything else related to the topic) on the article's Talk page, which you'll find here. That page also contains a link to the Biography project, where you may also find people who can help with the article.


 * Unfortunately, your notes and interviews are not likely to qualify as reliable sources. You can find more information on this at WP:RELY. Unless these interviews have been published, they are original research, which is prohibited. I know I've included a lot of links to reading material here, but if you only have time to read one, it should probably be WP:ORIGINAL. I hope this is helpful.

Helping with references and edits on my personal Wiki page
Hi Jessica -- I appreciate your attempts to keep Wikipedia accurate. However, I am at a loss as to how to edit and correct my personal Wikipedia page, which had omissions and now won't take my edits. I see that you have removed my description on myself as an executive -- I have worked in two senior executive capacities so how would I list those (both were pre - Wikipedia and I don't try for a lot of publicity). Also information about my husband was taken down -- but where do I get information on his having played baseball? I guess I could cite the Baseball Encylcopedia. But, he is also teaching at Yeshiva University -- should I cite a newspaper reference for that? Finally, who do I cite as to the fact that for almost ten years he has been fighting cancer and has started an on-line patient advocacy group without giving up private information of his (i.e. his twitter hastag).

Finally, I am at a total loss as to how to do any of this! Can you guide me.

<Many thanks. Suzanne Tufts — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suzannetufts (talk • contribs) 22:09, 8 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi Suzanne, thanks for replying - most people never get back to me about things like this, so you're already ahead of the game. I can understand that you'd like your article to be accurate and contain important information, and that's my goal as well.


 * However, the conflict of interest can make things a little dicey. Wikipedia really cautions people against editing their own pages. The guidelines on conflicts of interest can help you navigate this. It's quite a read, and perhaps the most important guideline is "COI editors should not edit affected articles directly, but propose changes on article talk pages instead."


 * The relevant talk page is here. There, you can post any changes you'd like to see made to your article. The talk page also includes a link to the Biographies project, which would also be a good place for you to post your requests (do so by going here and clicking "new section" at the top right). The Biographies page is likely to be seen by more people, and sooner, than your article, because it's monitored by a wide variety of editors with an interest/specialization in biographical articles in general.


 * Including sources along with your requested changes is not absolutely required, but is very useful for the editors who will be making the changes. (You don't have to worry too much about formatting these, just include the urls.) Any newspaper articles you can provide would be great, and the Baseball Encyclopedia would be just fine for the info about your husband. If there's an online faculty list for Yeshiva University, that would be a great source for his position there. Regarding the online advocacy group, pretty much any mention in the media would be enough - you just need to provide proof that it exists, and that your husband is connected to it.


 * I do have to caution you that some editors will be reluctant to include all of this information about your husband, since you are the topic of the article. A few brief mentions of his work/activities may be all that's considered appropriate to include, unless any of these are activities the two of you participate in together.


 * I hope this is enough to get you started, and I hope you aren't daunted by this process - it's just part of how Wikipedia strives to stay accurate. If I can help with anything, please do let me know. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 22:29, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Editing my personal Wikipedia page -- how do I access your Talk Page
Hi Jessica -- I am so new that I don't know how to access your Talk page and the instructions are confusing. I thought that I had provided good references to published documents including a Senate testimony page, the Baseball Encyclopedia, my husband's University Faculty web site and my own LinkedIn page which in turn sends people to the sites of my various law firms. But when I tried to insert and publish them I get a note that you and I have an 'edit conflict'. I'm not sure why we would -- all I have done is expand on my own page with my own professional and personal information.

How can I access your Talk page -- I am sorry to bother you but really do need to get my page updated correctly and all this is new to me! Thanks for all your volunteer efforts.

Editing my page -- thank you
Dear Jessica Thank you for all the information and references. Wow, this is quite a project! I will check with the Biographies page. I am very eager to get at least the full and correct professional history into this article plus a biography page since over the past few weeks media sources have used what is currently a very abbreviated page to write incorrect articles about me, some of which formed the basis of my having to leave my job. And, since I am now in job hunt mode, it is all the more important that things like my prior law firms and grant administration work at least get mentioned. So, will do my best.

Thanks again -- you do yeoman's work and have helped make the world a smaller, and better informed place. If only those monks laboring with their quill pens, or the ancient scribes with their papyrus could have envisioned you!!!

Sincerely, Suzanne — Preceding unsigned comment added by Suzannetufts (talk • contribs) 00:17, 9 November 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi Suzanne, you're doing just fine on the communications front (thank you)! Wikipedia is such a huge project and the how-to instructions are spread out over so many pages that it can be very confusing and daunting to get started.


 * The "edit conflict" you mentioned running into is a error message that shows up when two people try to edit the same page at the same time. This is rare, and had nothing to do with the value of what you were trying to add - it literally just means "wait a few minutes and try again."


 * I just took another look at the content you added to your page, to refresh my memory, and it's actually less problematic than I thought. I removed that content because of the combination of three factors: formatting errors which caused the page to display incorrectly, the conflict-of-interest issues, and lack of sources. Formatting errors are easily fixed, there's no conflict of interest if I myself add to the page, and we can work on the sources. So I'm going to re-add some of your text to the article in a few minutes - I'll send you another message when I'm done. You're totally welcome to still post a request for changes on the article's Talk page, or the Biographies project page, but if you're happy with the changes I make to the article, we may have this fixed pretty soon.


 * And about those sources: I think if we provide a few key sources for things such as your past job positions, we'll be good to go. In a perfect Wikipedia, every claim would have a source, but we also have a policy that claims need to be verifiABLE, not necessarily veriFIED. Basically this means that if a statement is non-controversial and easy to verify, we're not absolutely required to include a source for it. Saying "Justin Bieber is a musician" wouldn't need to be proven by citing a source, because it's common knowledge, and anybody could prove it with two seconds of googling. Your job positions, and the info about your husband, probably fall in this area. Citing sources will make your Wikipedia page a more credible source itself, but it should be ok to include the content you want to include, even if without citations, because it's verifiable info.


 * Oh, and LinkedIn is an acceptable source, but not ideal, because the full page details can't be viewed by anyone who isn't logged in. It's a good start though!


 * I hope this is not too jargon-y - please let me know if anything here is unclear! And thank you for the kind words, that was very nice of you to say. Best, Jessicapierce (talk) 17:35, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

As I said on your talk page, your contributions need to be readable sentences which are sourced and don't damage the page's formatting.

 * Hi, and thanks for your reply. There is a how-to guide on adding references here. However, if you're using a reference that's already used on the page, the easiest thing may just be for you to copy and paste the citation from one spot to another. It will look something like this: or this:
 * However, I'm not sure the content you added is actually contained in that reference. We're talking about the National Register pdf, right? I did a quick skim and I'm not seeing a lot of your content contained there.
 * In addition, your text had a ton of errors, such as misspelled words, incomplete sentence, and missing punctuation. These issues really need to be addressed if you'd like to re-add the content. Jessicapierce (talk) 22:42, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

The formatting here can be tricky, and sometimes one wrong character can really mess things up, which is why I always encourage the use of Preview. Keep in mind that you can always test things out in your sandbox, too (link at top right). Have fun, and if I can help with anything else, just let me know!

Cupid
I ran across this article Cupid, in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting and was simply going to fix some cite errors. But a closer look at the revision history and the page of User talk:Guardian212, indicates there has been previous issues. If you scroll all the way to the bottom, there is this oddity - ''This is a user sandbox of Cupid. A user sandbox is a subpage of the user's user page. It serves as a testing spot and page development space for the user and is not an encyclopedia article''. And then there is additional references and sources below the external links. And I also got a 90.7% on a copyvio detection, seen here, and also saw a previous copyvio in the revision history. I honestly don't know where the last clean version of this article is to roll it back to, could you please take a look and see what you think. I noticed your warning on Guardian212's talk page and it appears they have ignored it. Thanks, I certainly would appreciate it. Isaidnoway (talk)  05:00, 8 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much for letting me know. I have that page on my watchlist but didn't get a notification about those recent changes, which are not an improvement. I've reverted the page to what I think is the last good version (I'll take a closer look in a sec to make sure). Cheers! Jessicapierce (talk) 05:18, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Abraham B.
Sorry about the confusion. I realized that I'd removed a cite, by accident, and was going back through my edits trying to figure out what it was. I became totally confused because you'd addressed the error that I was looking for already and I hadn't realized that anyone else was working on it. I was trying to eliminate the non-Bolden elements of the article about him, and left numerous cn requests, in addition to the deletions. Activist (talk) 03:40, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Thank you!

 * Thank you! It was pretty easy, they all showed up in search results on a ref error I was looking for. I did check a handful of other recent bot edits, but I didn't find anything weird. Cheers, Jessicapierce (talk) 23:28, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Question about redundant/unnecessary article
Hello, I'm unsure where to post about this, as this isn't something I've encountered before. I'm wondering why we need History of the Interport Police (whose title also apparently has a typo in the name of the organization), when we already have InterPortPolice. Shouldn't all the relevant content go there? If this needs merging/moving/whatever, I would appreciate it if the editor answering this question would do so, as this is pretty far out of my wheelhouse. Thank you for your time, Jessicapierce (talk) 23:42, 12 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Jessica, usually the best place to start is on the talk pages of the articles in question. It's possible the history article was created as a college class project, but I'm not certain. I do think the articles should be merged, as the original article is still quite short. (I'm leaving your help request active so you'll get more comments.) - BilCat (talk) 00:06, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll run point for you in a merge proposal if you're uncomfortable doing that. Some aspects of Wikipedia still overwhelm or intimidate me, and I've been here over 12 years! :) - BilCat (talk) 00:08, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Any guidance you can offer on this would be great! It's only in the past few years that I've ventured beyond fixing grammar, and there are so many functional aspects of Wikipedia that are foreign to me. Jessicapierce (talk) 00:13, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Whoops, I got a phone call in the middle of typing and should have been more clear. I should have said "if you'll point me towards how to propose a merge, I'll be glad to try and navigate that, but if you'd rather just do so yourself, I would appreciate either form of help". Jessicapierce (talk) 00:15, 13 December 2018 (UTC)


 * You could take a look at Merging. If you feel capable of understanding and following the instructions, I don't want to take away the opportunity to learn. However, If your eyes glaze over after trying to read it from WP:TLDNR syndrome, or otherwise, then I'll propose the merge, though it won't be today.


 * Meanwhile, it looks like User:Mosterbur is the professor, and started the history article as a cut-and-paste of the original article. User:Scaloggero24 appears to be the students. How are you at personal interaction in problem situations? It's not really my strength. :) - BilCat (talk) 00:27, 13 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you BilCat & Jessicapierce and my apologies for the delayed response (end of semester can be quite hectic). My student originally edited the InterPortPolice page and made the change to History of because he felt he had only really contributed to the history of the organization rather than its current efforts. He is learning and we both appreciate your assistance in that process Mosterbur (talk) 19:15, 13 December 2018 (UTC)Mosterbur


 * Thanks so much for the starting point. I will finish up a few (well, a lot) of things I'm in the middle of, and then take a look at that merging info. I'll get in touch again if it fries my brain. :) Jessicapierce (talk) 00:34, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I just did a WP:BOLD merge - you don't need to formally propose a merge if one looks uncontroversial as in this case :) Galobtter (pingó mió) 13:09, 13 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Oh, thanks very much Galobtter! I'll read up on how to do this myself, but I do appreciate you taking care of it. Also, thanks to you and BilCat for being super helpful and friendly about this - I've been snapped at a fair few times for asking questions, so I always appreciate civility. Best, Jessicapierce (talk) 16:31, 13 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, what I did was basically just copy the main part of the History of the Interport Police over to InterPortPolice. Also, it's unfortunate that your questions have been met with incivility; you can always ask me if you need any help - and I don't snap :) Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:05, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

Stettheimer article and your deletion and reply comments
Jessicapierce - you commented on my request for a senior editor due to a complaint about deletion of my EXPERT ADDITIONS on the Florine Stettheimer article. However when you directed me to your "Talk" page, there is no archived former comments by you on the Stettheimer article so I've had to start a NEW section "talk page"

As I spent 3 hours writing corrected FACTUAL information on Stettheimer, correcting completely UNTRUE information that was on her site, which you deleted two days aga, and wrote yesterday (at my request for a Senior Editor Review Dispute) that I must add valid PUBLISHED SOURCE MATERIAL..PLEASE PUT BACK MY DELETED MATERIAL AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO ADD THAT PUBLISHED SOURCE MATERIAL!!!!

I was in the midst of doing so, but the entire information I added was deleted.

I apologize but the format for working - the "language" necessary for writing on Wikipedia - is so complicated and difficult to learn, that it would take me a month or more to do so, and frankly I don't have time to become fully conversant with it enough to correct the information. I don't know how ANYONE who is not a trained editor by Wikipedia can understand how to do all the formatting you require. ''I would GREATLY appreciate it if I could write all of the correct, accurate, accurate biography and description of her life and significance, development of her work in the entry, citing all the many relevant sources of COURSE, and have a trained editor at Wikipedia assist with the proper formatting as it requires an expert, not a scholar in content, not Wikipedia format to do so. Is that possible?? '' Also I feel it is my duty, as THE scholar on Stettheimer who is the ONLY ONE who after 20 years of work on her life and work, the person who dated ALL her works for the first time, who wrote the ONLY biography of her life, actually spoke to/interviewed for my biography in 1995 the only surviving family members, her lawyer, her extant friends, all of whom are now dead, co-organzed the first full retrospective on her work since she died in 1946, and knows and can identify every building and figure in ALL of her extent paintings, I feel it is my DUTY to write a comprehensive entry on Stettheimer in WIkipedia for future readers and scholars/students to use.

The problems are:


 * as I was writing and adding a great deal of new and corrected information to the Stettheimer entry, I could NOT CHANGE AND ADD NEW SOURCES/FOOTNOTES TO THE ENTRY!!! or EDIT THE ONES THERE THAT WERE CITED WITH FALSE FACTS!! Your editing function on Wikipedia does not allow that!


 * Also after adding a certain amount of information, Wikipedia editing shuts down and doesn't let me add anymore.


 * And then, EVERYTHING I HAD WRITTEN FOR THREE HOURS WAS DELETED!

PLEASE REPLACE ALL THE NEW INFORMATION AND FACTUAL, ACCURATE INFORMATION I ADDED TO THE ENTRY AND ALLOW ME TO ADD THE SOURCE MATERIAL AND I WILL DO SO - I HAVE PUBLISHED A NUMBER OF ARTICLES IN THE LAST 10 YEARS IN BOOKS, ART NEWS MAGAZINE and HYPERALLERGIC ON STETTHEIMER THAT ARE SOURCES FOR EVERYTHING I AM STATING IN THE NEW MATERIAL I AM ADDING TO THE STETTHEIMER ENTRY BUT YOU HAVE TO ALLOW ME TO CHANGE THE FOOTNOTES THAT ARE FALSE INFORMATION AND ADD THE NEW SOURCES!!!Bold text'

Edit on Lumberport, West Virginia
Jessicapierce, thank you for your time viewing the page of my small town. I did not realize that I had not listed my source when I added the information so thank you for realizing my mistake. On the account of errors in the page, I was mostly just typing whatever my source had written while adding my own play on words here and there, and seeing as how my source was over 40 years old and I am from an area with different ways of saying things, the source was just written for the view of whoever lived around the area. I appreciate your eye for these problems, while being a bit upset that all my hard work was deleted instead of someone just mentioning it on the "Talk" section of the page. Thank you.

Gouldilocks 53 (talk) 20:22, 25 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, and thanks for getting in touch. The reasons I removed your addition to the page were explained on your talk page here. These problems remain unaddressed in your recent contribution of the same text.


 * As I said on your talk page, while other editors can always fix minor errors, at some point you're asking too much of others. Your submission is thick with errors; I mentioned several specifics such as capital letters in subject headers, and incorrect punctuation, which you have not fixed. Also, it's still largely unsourced. You say in your edit summary that "a reference for everything up-to 1976 and from there is of my own accord of being raised in and living in the town." Your own experience is simply not considered a source; neither is "ask any citizen of the town". I'm seeing perhaps two references in this entire large history section. There are just too many claims made here, without any sources given, to be acceptable within a wikipedia article.


 * In addition, I'm sorry, but some of this content is simply not what wikipedia considers noteworthy, such as the closing of the local video store.


 * I hope you better understand why this text is not acceptable as it currently stands, and why I am removing it again. I am more than happy to work with you on improving and adding to the article, but please gain a better understanding of what wikipedia expects, in terms of writing style and content. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 04:39, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Moore
I notice that you have reverted a number of my wikipedia edits on topics of which I am a scholarly expert. I am just wondering why Wikipedia prefers to cite non-experts and censor the work of actual experts on topics relating to sexuality? Some of my edits deleted refer to correction of inaccuracies and the editors have chosen to maintain the inaccuracies. I cannot continue to support Wikipedia if all my efforts to ensure greater veracity and expertise on it are continually sabotaged by its editors!

 * Also, as others have mentioned on your talk page, I would really advise you against adding your own work as a source, as that's a conflict of interest and is likely to be removed. Please read the info about COIs posted to your talk page. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 04:45, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

Reverting changes to Kakrapar Atomic Power Station
Hey there. I noticed that you revered my changes to the article Kakrapar Atomic Power Station. It was my mistake that I didn't add an edit message. However, I did preview my changes in the Visual Editor (couldn't view through the preview button since I hit publish by mistake). However, the changes I made were mainly to update the articles and remove incontinences with ground realities as well add better sources. I'm not sure how disputed work on Wikipedia but I urge you to reconsider your decision.

PS: I am relatively new to Wikipedia and not sure how 'User Talk' works or it's ultimate purpose. I'm not sure if it appropriate or within standards or guidelines to point things like this in User Talk. However, I saw no better way of contacting you on this.

 * No problem, ! The formatting stuff can take a while to learn, but keep in mind you can always practice in your sandbox (link is at the top of the page). I'm always glad to see an article about the arts being improved, especially by someone who clearly knows and cares about the topic. It would be wonderful if you could add more citations to the article. Thank you for the work you've done so far! Jessicapierce (talk) 15:27, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

Help with reporting a bug
Hi, I would love some help reporting a formatting issue I've seen cropping up lately. This is not at all my area, so I got as far as Bug reports and feature requests and got very daunted. If there's a more (non-technical) user-friendly way to report this, that would be great. Or if I could just explain the issue in plain English to someone and see if it bears reporting at all, that would be fantastic as well. Thank you! Jessicapierce (talk) 16:11, 3 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hey could you tell us what the formatting issue is? If you could provide a link to it, or an explanation of what it is, that would help us try and fix the problem. Thanks.  Seagull123  Φ  16:18, 3 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello, and thanks for the quick reply! While patrolling for citation errors, I've seen the same issue crop up over and over again. As far as I can tell, it's always with people using the Visual Editor (no idea if that's relevant). Essentially there are a lot of weird character substitutions occurring in citations. It's always the equal sign =, vertical bar |, and nowiki.


 * Examples can be seen in these recent edits: here (every citation added), here ("Se=eral yea|t pr=teins have als| been =dent|fied"), here ("Patricia A. Jac|bs, D.Sc.= at the annual meeting of|the America= Society of"), and here (" in Ma|ch=016"). Jessicapierce (talk) 16:29, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

Clan Spalding
Thank you, Jessica Pierce, for your communications. I can confirm I have no "external relationship" with the people I mentioned in my contribution to the Clan Spalding article, unless happening to live in Scotland or share the name Spalding somehow constitutes a COI. I can assure you that so far from being a "ton of errors", * everything* I wrote derives from reliable, published, if not always online sources.

I'd be grateful if you could demonstrate the erroneous nature of anything I wrote. Indeed, since you seem to reside in the State of Georgia where one claimant to the chieftanship of Spalding seems also to reside, I feel I should ask whether you yourself have a COI in this matter?

Furthermore, the removed content I added to the Marcel Dupre (whom I did not know personally as I was only 3 weeks old when he died) article also derives 100% from published sources.

I am surprised you have taken this action, as I have elsewhere seen unverified and indeed false information on Wikipedia, a case in point being this Dupre article where the utterly subjective claim about virtuosity versus content is unattested and relies on no examples.

I would be grateful if you would address my concerns. Thankyou. Mark G J Spalding (talk) 00:32, 6 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, and thanks for your reply. I've taken the liberty of tweaking the formatting of your message here so that it displays correctly. (It's bad form to change others' comments on Talk pages, but I wanted to make sure both our messages displayed clearly.)


 * The COI message I posted on your Talk page was boilerplate info that's commonly shared with users when it seems there may be a conflict of interest. It's something to be aware of, but was not the primary reason I removed your contributions to the Clan Spalding article; I removed it due to a number of other factors. Since we work on a collaborative model, other editors can always step in to fix minor issues. However, at a certain point, it's asking too much work of other people, and your contributions ought to be as correct as possible when submitted. I felt your submission passed this point. As a quick rundown, your edit contained:
 * punctuation errors
 * stray/incorrect words (an errant "on," "I'm" instead of "in")
 * damaged formatting
 * vague wording ("is often said..." - said by whom?; "hated the harshness of the governor")
 * unsourced claims


 * The content you added to the article is welcome here, but it needs some cleanup work, attention to detail, and some sources. You mention that your information comes from published sources, which is fantastic, and they need not be available online. I'd be glad to help, if you're unsure how to add citations for non-online source material. And please do feel free to edit the article, keeping the above issues in mind.


 * Regarding the Dupre article, I think I was clear in my edit summary (which you can see in the page history here), but if you'd like to discuss it further, or if I can help with anything else, please do let me know. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 03:19, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Inaccurate credit for Goof Troop
Hello Jessica,

I apologize for my inadequacies in using the correct methods and code to do a better job communicating my problem with your Goof Troop article. My background is in animation and definitely not on code. The fact is that I have worked in the industry for a long time and know of Mr. Peraza and his iconic work for the Disney Afternoon. He created Goof Troop alone, not with Robert Taylor. Robert was the Producer who came on board AFTER Mike Peraza had come up with the concept, characters designs and personality profiles and pitch.

You are giving away credit to someone who merely managed the series., Mr. Peraza created it.

You cite the following link which many of us use for pod casts, book interviews, D23 panels and more:

https://michaelperaza.blogspot.com/search/label/Goof%20Troop

Please reread it, Mr. Taylor was the Producer, NOT a creator. I along with other fans of the show want to see just credit served where it is due. Again, I am sorry I am so bad at communicating with this specific type of language. I'm better with a pencil and sketch pad, lol.

Thank you, Maurry DisneyFanForever (talk) 20:58, 28 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi Maurry, and thank you for your reply. I have no "dog in this fight" as I know nothing about the topic, and you definitely do seem to know about it. I have no objection to you changing the information on the page to more accurately describe the people involved in Goof Troop's creation. However, that blogspot link is just not going to be seen as a sufficient source.


 * If you can provide a better source, please do. Another option would be for you to post on the article's Talk page (here) starting a discussion about the changes you'd like to see made to the article. Someone may well step in and make those changes for you, and then you need not worry about any formatting issues.


 * Just let me know what you'd like to do, and I'll be glad to help, if I can. Best, Jessicapierce (talk) 22:48, 28 July 2019 (UTC)

Your recent report at WP:AIV
Hey! I declined your block request of User:2603:3018:B00:A00:48C0:C7C1:E75C:83E7. What they were doing is removing some redundancies in categories. For instance, Maren Morris was in both Category:American female country singers and Category:American country singer-songwriters. The anon is stating that the latter is a subset of the former, so there's no need to have the artist in both cats. I'm not convinced their logic is 100% sound, but I am certain they're not editing maliciously. You may want to reach out on their talk page and engage them to make sure we're all on the same page. Please let me know if you have any questions about this. Thanks,  caknuck ° needs to be running more often  20:30, 31 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks so much for the explanation - that makes perfect sense. I reverted a few edits which I will now go and un-revert, and will indeed post to their talk page. One question though: what about the dead/living category issue? For example, this edit of Ned Miller, which added "Category:Living people" right under "Category:2016 deaths"?
 * That one looks like an error, and it has been corrected by . If there are others like it, please correct as needed. Cheers,  caknuck ° needs to be running more often  19:55, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Just to be clear, the editor did make some legitimate edits amid their mess, but the bulk of what they do is mess. In the case of Maren Morris, the category they removed was indeed duplicate categorization with another category, but they also removed the same category from many other articles where it wasn't reduplication — basically, they were just indiscriminately removing that category from people regardless of whether it was duplicating another category or not. And adding to dead people wasn't an isolated one-time error, either, but is a persistent calling card of that user's editing patterns. You can see Long-term abuse/Country music category vandal from Tennessee for more information about this. I gave the IP in question a temporary editblock yesterday, and went through their editing history to review it — about half of what they did had to be reverted, and about half of that (for a quarter of the total) was the addition of "Living people" to dead people.

Free Church of England
I see what you mean it repeats itself but I copied it with permission from https:ecfce.com/history

I think what it means is there was a split in their church and there is a breakaway group but perhaps wording needs amendment.


 * I'm sorry, but I also don't really understand what you've written here.


 * If you have copied text from elsewhere, that needs to be made clear.


 * The link you have included here (https:ecfce.com/history) does not lead to anything useful. If you meant you have included text from the history section of that site, the url is https://ecfce.com/history-of-evangelical-connexion-fce/ . Although you included that link as a citation along with your text, that is not sufficient. Using something as a source does not mean one is free to copy it verbatim. If permission has been granted to do so, that needs to be explicitly stated.


 * Also, whether permission has been granted or not, any text you add to Wikipedia needs to be readable and make sense. Jessicapierce (talk) 20:31, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for helping to improve my Christian Dior Ready-to-Wear runway collections article. I am still learning and very much appreciate the community's support and patience. I always welcome a fresh pair of eyes. Regarding your question about the citations, when I first began writing many of my fashion-themed articles, I was often citing Style.com, but the organization/website transitioned from an editorial publication to a retail site. I've noticed that most of their content was being redirected/migrated to the runway section of another Conde Nast title, Vogue. I can definitely review and update these citations where needed. As for some of the quotes, I transcribed them from the embedded video content on the links provided; again, I believe many of these were Style.com.

Once again, thank you for your assistance. At one point, I felt targeted by a self-described deletionist, that editor didn't question or try to help. He didn't open it up to discuss and reach a consensus, he just pulled up every Wikipedia article I'd written and deleted them all, despite the fact that I'd received a Barn Star for one of them. I was extremely discouraged and gave up for a while, but I love and believe in Wikipedia and would like to make a valued contribution. I do think there is a place and need for an encyclopedic fashion resource that can live on as an archive in perpetuity for historians, students, researchers, and anyone with an interest in fashion--this has always been my aim when editing and writing articles as part of the Wiki Fashion Project. I've tried to be diligent with my research and sources. I've also adjusted my tone from earlier contributions to be less flowery or opinionated and more balanced, with as much factual detail as possible. I'd like to think I've influenced others, or at least that I'm not alone in this quest, because I've noticed the expansion of other fashion articles, namely the Chanel article, which now includes a section on Fashion Collections and Runway Shows. --Lisacarolinamartinez (talk) 23:03, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

I updated the notes that claimed OneDrive supported unlimited storage and that one could request for their storage amount to be upped to 10TB which was discontinued around 2018. I added that the current limit is 5TB across 5x accounts with the Office 365 subscription. Hope that helps!

Possible renaming of article
Hi there, I could use some help with a situation at Country Day School, Guanacaste. It has recently been edited by several anonymous or new editors who claim that the school's name has been changed. If so, obviously the wikipedia article needs to be updated, but I don't know whether the page title needs to be changed.

This is far out of my expertise and I don't have the time to look into it. I have reverted several recent changes, mostly on grounds that they contained a lot of errors and trashed the formatting, etc. The most recent edits, I removed on grounds that they removed sourced content, added unsourced, etc. These recent edits have not been improvements, but it does seem that someone - or several people - are calling for a constructive, necessary change re the school's name.

Would someone please handle the renaming, if that's what is called for here?

Whitefield
As a compiler of the history, geography and demographics data of my town, Whitefield Maine ( for over a half century) I am stymied when every attempt I make to supplement the common data on Wikipedia are rejected out of hand for the oddest reasons. Reasons that indicate that depth is NOT one of the goals of this particular editor. I would like to challenge these rejections with proof that data does exist in conventional form that should be included to round out the description our town. Please visit these suggested sites ( most are on the Digital Commons ) and reconsider my plea to have them added to our town's profile. ie:

 * Hello, You are welcome to make constructive changes to the Whitefield article, and perhaps you can use some of those links as citations. But I would caution you against simply adding this list of links to the article. That's generally not the sort of content Wikipedia includes in a town article. If you doubt my word on this (or would just like a second opinion), please follow these instructions on how to add a "help me" message to your Talk page, which will send up a flare and get help from some other editor.


 * In addition, please brush up on formatting before editing further. Your contributions here are welcome, but they do need to follow certain basic guidelines. I'll post a few helpful links to that effect on your Talk page. Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 05:41, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Nosferatu_(band)
A bit of background, the current version of this band was an unauthorised version made possible by the weak UK litigation laws. Although it has traded for a few years this way, recently the current main member has started to edit the history of the band as a reaction to ex members forming their version of this band.

The user Johnny Alucard aka Damien Deville is attempting to rewrite history by claiming he started the band in 1986 some two years before he joined an already existing band. He has also introduced some ridiculous statements such as him countersuing me with Sony Music lawyers a fact that never happened. Neither did the band subsequently reach higher chart positions and neither was he the majority songwriter.

If you were to go back and compare entries from many months ago you would see that I have retained much of the later information which although I could argue should not be there I have left in. I think this demonstrates that of the two sides I am being very fair unlike Johnny Alucard who quite frankly is acting very unscrupulously.

I also think a link to our band should be present of this page as our band contains 2/3 of the classic lineup, much to his annoyance.

I appreciate Wikipedia does not want an edit war and if as is likely this situation will continue I would request deletion altogether of this entry for the band Nosferatu https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nosferatu_(band) as I cannot allow a factual site to continue to portray lies and disinformation.

 * Hi thanks for the info, but I am really mostly invested in fixing grammatical and style errors. If you have objections to the current content of the article, you'd be better off posting these concerns to the article's Talk page (here) or using the "help me" template (here) on your own Talk page to ask for guidance.

Help, please
Hello, I've run across something odd with recent edits at Kottiyoor Temple.
 * The most recent edit summary says the content was copied from elsewhere.
 * The talk page of the editor in question has a "confirmed to be a sock puppet" message I'm unfamiliar with.
 * When clicking through to that other editor, it seems there has been a history of copyright violations.
 * The recent addition is poorly written (some sentences make zero sense, and all of it would be daunting to make readable) and contains formatting issues. However, I'm hesitant to fix any of it, if the addition should be removed altogether.

I would very much like someone who is not me to deal with this. :) Thank you! Jessicapierce (talk) 23:09, 13 March 2020 (UTC)


 * It appears that this content was copied from Kottiyoor Vysakha Mahotsavam, where it was inserted in Special:Diff/710874203 by Redtigerxyz. It appears that they in turn got it from Daksha, where the bulk of this text was inserted in Special:Diff/566128167 by Ram K Bhattatirippad.  So, the chain of copying is very sloppy in attribution but, so far as I can see, this text was contributed to the project by an editor in good standing.  I hope this helps.  Bovlb (talk) 00:46, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

Strange formatting issue
Hello, I'm noticing something odd. I've found several wikitables whose formatting was broken, and therefore displayed improperly. The error was caused by the line break/spacing difference between this:

{| class="wikitable"

and this:

{| class="wikitable"

In the latter instance, where the wikitable is crammed up against an ending ref tag, the wikitable is broken. There is no other error, and adding a line break solves the problem. You can see my fix of one such error here.

I don't know if this is a new issue - I've never noticed it before. Is this really right, that such a small spacing/line break issue would be enough to destroy a table? Just curious, and if there's nothing that can be done about this, that's fine - just figured I should send up a flare to let someone know. Please let me know if this ought to be reported officially somewhere. Cheers, Jessicapierce (talk) 00:40, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
 * If you look at Help:Table, you will see The above marks must start on a new line, so this is expected behaviour, I'm afraid. Note that you are also allowed to use HTML syntax for tables, which does not have this problem. Cheers, Bovlb (talk) 01:17, 14 March 2020 (UTC)

As you can probably tell, I'm new to editing Wikipedia. I take it the style problem was capitalizing words in section titles rather than sentence form. Anyway thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Garrison Point (talk • contribs) 20:25, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!

 * Hi there, and thanks for the reply. I hear back from people very very rarely, so it's appreciated!
 * On taking a look at those recent edits, the issue at Woodstock High School (Illinois) was that you added nowiki tags. Those can be tricky, and in this case, they broke formatting (very easy to do). I now see that you also did fix that closing reference tag (from incorrect ) - but the nowiki essentially canceled out your fix.
 * The issue at Woodstock North High School was no big deal, but since I noticed you'd put capital letters in section headers ("Conference Titles" rather than "Conference titles") I just wanted to nudge you toward reading the Manual of Style, if you hadn't already - there's no better way to learn about Wikipedia's style expectations.

East Sister Island (Ontario) ‎
Hi Jessica! Thank you for informing me of my lack of citation on the East Sister Islands web page.

I am unsure on how to cite this. I have boated to the island and declared independence and forwarded such correspondence to the Canadian government.

Could I perhaps make a website for the new nation, and cite the Declaration of Independence on there? That seems like a conflict of interest, but at the same time... it doesn’t, because as a sovereign state, my publication would be official (at least in the borders of the new country.)

It would be up to the government of Canada to re-claim their land.

Please advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whodoeswhatnow (talk • contribs) 05:09, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Leaving the same message multiple times is not going to speed up my response. As you might understand, I have some other shit going on right now. I will reply the moment I feel like it. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:40, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello, it was not my intention to bother you, I am new to Wikipedia and was not aware that the reply feature would Also post it to your talk page before adding it to your talk page a second time. My apologies. Whodoeswhatnow (talk) 22:46, 3 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, I apologize for my earlier reply - it was hastily written in a moment of stress, and I shouldn't have done that. Trying times are no excuse to be a bitch. :)


 * With regard to East Sister Island (Ontario): I removed your changes because I assumed they were nonsense at best, and probably vandalism. It honestly didn't even occur to me that your claims were legitimate, mostly because you didn't include a source.


 * Without citing a proper, independent source, your claims are unlikely to stay on the page. WP:CITE will give you some guidance on what qualifies. From a quick scan over your changes to the East Sister Island article, you'll need to provide proof that the island has been claimed as a sovereign nation (and that, presumably, the process for that has been completed and everything is now legal - I'm not sure the mere act of claiming is enough for the law, or for Wikipedia), that its name has been changed, that it is no longer a nature reserve, and that it has human inhabitants. If you're able to provide those sources, some further explanatory text in the article would also be useful, as the "claimed because of corona" was so brief as to read like a non sequitur and/or vandalism.


 * However, Wikipedia will generally view your connection to this subject as a conflict of interest. It's not impossible for you to be allowed to edit the page, but it's dicy territory. WP:CONFLICT has some info on this.


 * The easiest way for you to have the article changed would be to post a request on its Talk page, found here. You can outline all the changes you'd like (optimally providing sources), and another editor can look into it and make those changes for you, if they're warranted.


 * If you do that, and no one seems to notice (some pages and projects get more attention than others), you can always send up a flare on your own Talk page, using the "help me" template. There is probably also a noticeboard at which you can ask for help on the topic, but frankly I'm out of my depth here - I usually just fix the commas.


 * Best, Jessicapierce (talk) 00:39, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello, thank you for the update. However, in terms of international laws, there are no ... legal ways to go about doing this. Claiming the land is an act of war against the Canadian government, and they will not recognize our sovereignty. You can see similar things between the borders of india/pakistan. They will change on maps based on which country you are in for the same reasons that it would be impossible for this island to become legal recognized by the nation that we take it from.

As for citing a source, as the acting authority on behalf of the new government, the declaration of (illegal, according to canada) independence becomes the source. (You won't ask America in 1776 to provide a source to England about their own declaration of independence), so it would be rather silly to hold me to a higher standard than you would hold an actual recognized nation.

The only way to get actual recognition is to convince enough people to agree with your stance.

I will issue a public statement, and rely on photographic evidence of my being there as proof that I am, indeed there. I will be setting up a website shortly, and making the article more precise as to the issue at hand.

However, I expect to be arrested (See, high treason https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treason#Canada ) upon doing this. I'm fine with that. (Whodoeswhatnow (talk) 06:08, 4 April 2020 (UTC))

Oscar Wilde and The Picture of Dorian Gray
Thank you for your comment on my edit of the Dorian Gray section of the article on Oscar Wilde. You say that I have transgressed the Wikipedia style guide - maybe I have, but unfortunately you have not said in what way I did this, nor what I should do about it. Since my contribution was only a couple of sentences, I would imagine that what I have done wrongly ought to be easily fixable. Can you please tell me what I should do in order to make my contribution abide by the rules? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fiskendo (talk • contribs) 17:40, 8 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Sure thing. Your second edit only removed part of a citation, which broke formatting and damaged the readability of the article.


 * Your first edit added content which was a bit of a non sequitur where it was placed - it might have been fine as a separate paragraph, but its overall intent was still very unclear. Three books are mentioned in quick succession (The Man in the Red Coat, The Picture of Dorian Gray, A Rebours), and it's unclear what the parallels are claimed to be. The latter book is said to have been used at trial, but to what end? It's ust a few quick, vague sentences which don't have much of a takeaway meaning.


 * The names of books need to be italicized, sentences need to end with punctuation (before the citation), the name of one book was incomplete ("The Picture Dorian Gray"), and the formatting of the citation was jumbled.


 * These are all fixable issues, but the onus is on the contributing editor to make sure their contributions are as correct as possible before submitting. This was just too much cleanup work to ask others to do, especially given that it's not clear what point was being made.


 * Don't let this dissuade you from contributing, just perhaps to take more time with it, and to use the Preview function before submitting, to catch those formatting errors. Hope this helps, Jessicapierce (talk) 17:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hello J I hope you will forgive this intrusion on your talk page. I would just like to let Fiskendo know that IMO the info they were adding is very specific to the book and is a bit too detailed for Wilde's article. It would go better on WikiP's article for TPoDG. I do think it is mentioned there in some form but it probably could be enhanced. Best regards to you both. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 19:07, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Editing personal information
Hi Jessica

I hope all is well with you. Please forgive me but I sent you a question on Teahouse instead of here...

I wanted to let you know that I have been attempting to edit wholly or partially inaccurate information about myself and my family. It was my first stab at doing it, so if you have any questions for me regarding the changes I put forward, please let me know. I am happy to give you my email address also, though I'm not sure if emailing is the most secure method in terms of messaging! You commented that my edits "were not constructive"...I'm not sure what that means in relation to my own edits (and those I made for my wife) since they are accurate and come from the best source available on the subject(s)! For instance, demonstrably false stories from the "press" that are currently found in our bios/profiles, may not in fact be reliable, and therefore are certainly not constructive.

Again, please let me know if you have any questions as I stumble my way through this process!

Thank you,

Best,

 * Hello, thanks for getting in touch. I think others have already stepped in to give you a better answer than I could, but I did want to emphasize that there is certainly a way for your Wikipedia page to be accurate. You editing the article yourself may not be the best way, though. As others have said, Wikipedia has pretty strict conflict-of-interest guidelines.


 * You can always post on the Talk page of any article, regarding changes you'd like to be made. And if you have any question, you can post the "help me" template on your own talk page, and someone will step in to answer your question. Cheers, Jessicapierce (talk) 16:16, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

PETER LEMON
Jessicapierce - You have now had two full days to look up United States Military Decorations to see proper order of precedence yet you have not smartly gone in and changed back what correctly was altered which you not very smartly removed - For your ready reference here is what you should look at - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awards_and_decorations_of_the_United_States_Armed_Forces - Therefore, you will properly note the list of decorations should then be correctly shown in the glossary and main body list as - Medal of Honor / Bronze Star Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster / Purple Heart / Air Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster / Army Commendation Medal / Army Good Conduct Medal - ( Showing word bronze before Oak Leaf Cluster is also not necessary ) Having the Purple Heart below the above order of precedence as it is currently shown is totally wrong - If you are capable of even understanding the above then the above proves you were wrong to remove what was altered - Therefore you really do need to make that correct and proper change or do be kind enough to explain to Mr. Lemon directly why you are being so obtuse - Thank You. { No response is required as most of you so-called ' editors ' appear to have never served in the military, never saw a sporting event or ever saw any movies/ TV programs with no grasp whatsoever of what is proper / right / correct } 69.158.86.174 (talk) 00:19, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Request for help
Hello, I could use a little assistance.}} Please see recent edits to Nigerian Civil War, specifically this one.

I've now removed this same edit for the second time. The main issue is that the editor is "fixing" a direct quotation, which is obviously as issue, as well as butchering the formatting by combining the quote within a citation with the subsequent article text. I have reached out to the editor and received no response.

I am rusty at the ins and outs of dealing with something like this, and would appreciate some guidance on where to post for help. Thank you! Jessicapierce (talk) 15:17, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Attempting to discuss it with the user- as you have done- is the first step.

Just because you see the cut-to-the-fact edits I did for the Nigerian Civil War (i.e. removal of IRRELEVANT verbosity & OUTRIGHT fiction) to make it wholesome, should serve as some kind of 'steroid' for you to to attack similar support I lent in editing the article about Kumasi. I can understand your vigilante gung-ho I-have-lost-my-mind-and-I-am-out-for-blood emotional rampage but in case you do not know, I will like to bring to your attention that your knowledge about everything is far more limited than you might innately believe and uphold.

Question on notability level for inclusion on lists
Hello, I could use a little guidance. What level of notability do we require for a person/character to be listed on a name page such as Lauren or Tallulah? I was under the impression that in the case of fictional works, the character herself needs to be notable enough to have her own article, before being included on lists. But the more I look, the more it seems that if the book/movie/whatever is prominent enough to have its own article, then that is enough for the characters to warrant inclusion.

I ask because I fear I may have been too hasty in reverting a bunch of edits made by a new user today (if so, I'm glad to undo and apologize). Is there a difference in notability between Theo Huxtable (included on the Theodore list) of The Cosby Show, and the names of fairies found in a series of children's books (Rainbow Magic) whose names don't even appear on the wiki article for the series? Do both warrant inclusion on lists? My concern is that lists may become (more) useless if the're allowed to contain every Jennifer appearing in any published book, etc.

Thank you for any guidance you can offer on this. Jessicapierce (talk) 17:18, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It sounds like you were correct to remove those names as insufficiently notable. List articles tend to accumulate junk if there are no firm criteria for inclusion, so holding the line that an article must exist first is justified.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 17:45, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Fallschirmjäger
Hi Jessica

Yes there is a serious mistake here.

The Battle of Corinth section is a bit of a muddle. (Actually the battle was too..) As written at the moment it is made to appear that large numbers of Allied troops were captured by the Fallschirmjäger after the battle. I don't know if this is deliberate glorification of the Fallschirmjäger or use of an inaccurate secondary source, either way, it is not true. A few Commonwealth troops were cut of north of the canal after the bridge was blown and these and some injured troops and possibly some local Greek forces, were captured. The Commonwealth army units withdrew south.

Several thousand of Allied troops were captured a few days later 100 miles to the south of Corinth at Kalamata, (and many more evacuated from here and from Rafina, to the north of Corinth).

I tried to correct this as a minor edit but really the entire section needs a rewrite. The circumstances surrounding the destruction of the bridge over the canal are misrepresented too. Nobody knows exactly how the bridge was blown, whether by shellfire, by charges on the brige being hit by shellfire or being detonated by a couple of men who fired on them. Whatever, it clearly wasn't an accident.

It will take quite a time to find the references required to make these changes. The original is NOT I belive properly referenced. Can I suggest a health warning be put on this section in the meantime?

Sincerely

Malietoa Moli Portrait
Talofa lava Jessica,

I made amendments to the above subject matter as Malietoa Moli is my great great grandfather and that is not his portrait that is the portrait of Malietoa Vaiinupo painted by the expedition of the USS Agate to Samoa. On this expedition the portrait of Malietoa Moli's sister Emma was also painted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tafaifa (talk • contribs) 12:36, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Punctuation fixes involving ill
Hello Jessicapierce,

Thanks for your punctuation fixes in this edit at Phases of Operation Car Wash including the proper placement of periods before a &lt;ref> tag. However, in at least one case involving an interlanguage-link template, you broke a link. Here's the before/after of your change: Note that moving a period inside the ill breaks the link, because no article will ever be written on en-wiki entitled, "Operation Slaughter II." with a period in the title. If you wish to have the period precede the superscript interwiki link, you must do it this way: Note that the rendered text in this version, looks exactly like the rendered text in your "AFTER" version, however, the red link is accurate in the fixed version.
 * BEFORE:
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II.
 * AFTER:
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II.
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II.
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II.
 * INSTEAD, add the lt param, yielding this:
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II
 * On 23 August 2017, the Federal Police launched a new phase named Operation Slaughter II

Can I ask if you used AWB or some other semi-automated process do do this? If there is a tool with an incorrect pattern-match or replacement text, I'd like to know, so I can repair it. Mathglot (talk) 07:46, 8 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi, and thanks for the helpful comment. I used no automated tool - this was the result of me messing with a template I'm not that familiar with. I'm sure I must have "fixed" that period, scanned down the article in Preview to make sure I hadn't broken anything, and left it at that, not thinking through what I'd done to the text within the template. I'll know better for next time. Cheers, Jessicapierce (talk) 14:33, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Genuine content removed accidently!
Firstly, I am not blaming anyone, but I do know that the fact, on which you were confused and removed it, is actually true. That's why, I'm adding it again, and if you want, you can Google it too, where you would find several sources and books. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/977258604 Believe me I&#39;m a TOPPER (talk) 09:20, 24 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the message. However, I was not "confused" in my removal of your content. Please do not make assumptions as to my thought process or state of mind.


 * Your original edit at Brahmashirsha astra was problematic, as I explained in my edit summary: "Undid addition of a lot of text which I'm not sure is warranted here, which was inserted between existing content and its source." I said nothing about "false claims," so I'm not sure where you got that from. The primary issue was that inserting content in front of an existing citation is simply incorrect, as it can lead to confusion.


 * Since your subsequent edit does not have this issue, the text can stay. However, please take a look at your wording, because it isn't entirely clear. What is a "mind born son"? Also, should "He did know how to retract the weapon" perhaps say "did not know how"?


 * In addition, if you're going to edit here, please choose one account (either anonymous or named), and stick it it. It is also helpful to include a link to the page you're referring to. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 13:28, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Need someone to take a look at probable vandalism.
Hello, I've found some probable vandalism that I'm not equipped to figure out. Please take a look at this edit at Tigrayans. I can't tell if the unexplained content removal is legit or not (I suspect not), and half a citation was removed after "It is also of great importance for conflict resolution."

It looks as though someone is trying to remove all mentions of Eritrea from the article. The topic is something I know nothing about, and the article looks to be going through a lot of back-and-forth lately. Frankly this isn't something I want to get involved in, but thought I should let someone know. Can you help? Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 21:33, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * If I remember correctly, did something similar in their edit at Ethiopia (their edit was revdel'd so I can't check).  However, there is a lot of nationalistic editing regarding this geographic area. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 19:19, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * My general opinion is that if a change contains an unexplained content removal (especially if it appears to be sourced) then it should be reverted, at the very least to get a discussion started on the talk page. There is no hard and fast "rule", though, so if you're on the fence it might be worth starting a talk page discussion to see if that diff should be reverted. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 00:36, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * and, thanks to you both. There have been subsequent edits to the page, so the above-mentioned removal of content can't be easily reverted. It looks like there's been a lot of back-and-forth over the past few weeks. I've posted a request for page protection, along with a request that someone evaluate recent edits. This just doesn't look like a challenge I'm up for. But if there's anything else I should do to bring this to someone's attention, do let me know.

Continued vandalism on Otacon article
Hi there Jessicapierce,

I can see that you've had some previous problems with Roelle Dimalanta on the Otacon article, and needless to say they're still at it despite your previous warnings. I've tried to revert the article back to before their most recent edit but like you say on one of your reversions, I don't know what's true on the article myself and whether there's any further reversions that may need making but I've tried my best on it.

I can't say I know how to report a user myself for continued vandalism, but it seems that they're ignoring all the warnings that you have given and need permabanning if it's something that you see fit and know how to go about doing.

Thanks for all your editing work,

Updating according to the new Roman Martyrology
Hi, thank you for your observations. My problem is that I mainly work on Swahili Wikipedia and many times I use Italian sources. So, if I see in the English edition incorrect or obsolete dates, I correct them according to 2004 Martyrology.

All the same, if you control in the Martyrology you will see I am correct. Peace to you! --Riccardo Riccioni (talk) 07:19, 11 October 2020 (UTC)

Alta (dye)
Hello! I moved the picture back to it's previous place place on Alta which you shifted for "layout reasons". Bengali Hindu brides dipping their feet in "alta" during "Bodhu Boron" is not a "cultural" practice. "Bodhu Boron" is actually only by Hindus and "allegedly" has "Hindu" significance behind it.So please don't change the current layout. Thank you. :) Okaymishti (talk) 18:53, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Your change is fine. However, you are overthinking the placement of the image. Sometimes page layout and ease of readability are more important than having an image appear under a specific section.


 * Also, please note that you do not have ownership of this article, nor any other on Wikipedia. This is a collaborative project. You do not have the right to ask others not to make changes, and it's rude to do so. Please don't do this in the future. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk)

18:58, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Jessicapierce Sorry if I sounded rude, I didn't mean to. I definitely don't own the article haha.My point was if the layout was an issue then the picture should go under the "Religious significance" section (with valid ref of course) not the "Cultural Significance" one. I didn't want to be rude for reverting a fairly justified edit by you and just wanted to let you know about it not being a "cultural" thing, that's all. Please don't take it otherwise. Thanks Okaymishti (talk) 19:07, 18 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I take your point. However, because there is not currently enough text in the article for the images to be spaced properly, neither image is displaying in the exact perfect place. So for the time being, it doesn't matter that much. Jessicapierce (talk) 19:16, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Vandalism/false info
Hi, this is NoonboryKedabory.

Recently, I have noticed that someone has repeatedly been editing the page for "Noonbory and the Super 7" to include fan-made content. They also tend to edit the pages for voice actors they claim are in the show, but aren't (ex. Kathleen Barr, Garry Chalk) and they use numerous alternate accounts, all of which have a random string of numbers for a username.

How can this be stopped? It's highly annoying.

JanetThomas and Ths73 have researched the CofE in the great War for many years. We are trying to enhance Wikipedia biographies with that knowledge. unfortunately we now live 150 miles apart and can only do this comfortably if JanetThomas does the additions and Ths73 does the references. unfortunately he can not always do this because you have interfered. i am sure you are well-intentioned but please be tolerant for a few hours and give Ths73 a chance to tidy things up...as he has done on many others — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ths73 (talk • contribs) 18:24, 23 October 2020 (UTC)


 * What you call "interfering," I call "maintaining very basic Wikipedia standards and keeping articles in a readable condition."


 * It is just not appropriate for anyone to repeatedly add content which is so ill-formatted. If you and JanetThomas have an editing partnership that works for you both, that is a great idea that I fully support. But these changes need to be worked on privately before being added into articles for public view. Content with broken or nonexistent formatting shouldn't be submitted until it's cleaned up.


 * Off the top of my head, a better way to work together might be by emailing content to each other, using a collaborative Google Doc, or (probably the simplest idea) co-editing content on each other's Talk pages. I would suggest the sandbox, but I don't think a sandbox can be edited by anyone other than its owner.


 * I really do appreciate the content you both have added. It is obviously done in good faith. I would appreciate it if you would work with me, in order to find a more appropriate way to make the changes you both would like to see. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 19:26, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

I would like to propose that the page https://www.mainething.com/archives/ be added to references. it is entirely Whitefield centric — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iomene (talk • contribs) 18:56, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi there,
You were the last one to edit about my great, great, great grand father Thomas James O'Neil.

Is it possible for you to ad a picture of him if I sent it to you?

Gary Steelheads Edit
Not sure how to make a citation about the changes I made. I was the Director of Operations for a majority of the time with the team while in the CBA. 2601:8C0:700:9B50:C418:28F1:D9F6:2E55 (talk) 03:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)


 * It's generally discouraged to edit topics with which you have a personal connection. However, the changes you made weren't anything controversial, and I personally would have no objections to you re-adding them. It's important that the page be left in a readable state - you can ensure this by always using the Preview function (your previous edit removed formatting and damaged the page).
 * Keep in mind that you can always post on any article's Talk page, requesting that information/sources be added to the article. This can help when the formatting of citations is tricky (or just something you'd rather not mess with). Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 15:09, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

ref names
Hi, I saw you're updating long ref names with shorter ones. In the process, could you verify the ref name is actually used? A named ref could be misleading, looking like it's used multiple times even if it's not. Thanks!--Marc Lacoste (talk) 08:59, 14 April 2022 (UTC) I don't follow your page, please ping me if you want to reply, thks


 * Also, explicit ref names are useful when editing the wikitext. I use a [source][date] format, more useful than a short ref name="full". Thanks. Marc Lacoste (talk) 09:03, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi there, thanks for your message. You're right, quite a lot of those huge refnames are used only once in a given article, so those citations don't really need names at all. My logic in shortening, rather than removing them, is that since the prior editor went to the trouble of naming the ref, it might as well keep a brief name for ease in future editing, should that editor (or someone else) want to expand the article and re-use the same citation. My main goal is to get rid of these goofy 100+ character refnames that needlessly clutter up the page and make it miserable to edit. On a citation that's only used once in an article, I guess I might as well remove the name altogether.
 * As for the naming style, I honestly can't see that it matters much, as long as the ref names are unique... I run across a huge number of vague refnames like ":0", "auto", or "2498669241", and those get the job done just fine. I'm generally using a word from the title or author named in the citation... surely that's clear enough? Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 14:14, 14 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid you make a lot of assumptions on other editors wills. If an editor went to the trouble of naming a ref, perhaps he wants to keep the name he remembers thereafter, not a changed one for another editor's aesthetic taste. If a ref name stands alone, it's perhaps it was used twice but not anymore. If an unnamed ref needs to be used again, it's really easy to give it a name again. If you can't see why the naming style matters, perhaps you should not touch it and leave it as other editors want them? Abstract ref name should be avoided, but not obviously descriptive ref names. Editors have idiosyncracies. Perhaps it's not so bad and should be left at that with no change? I've got another one: I leave line breaks between sentences, as it allow for reordering while showing in the diff that nothing else has changed. I avoid disrupting existing wikitext in this way, but you shouldn't remove those line breaks either if you're unaccustomed as the diffs are illegible. Thanks.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:26, 15 April 2022 (UTC)


 * ( if you have a minute, could I get your opinion on the following as well? Thank you.)
 * ( thank you for the reply, and I will take your points into consideration. However, I can't help but think this is similar to other interactions I've occasionally had here, when another editor gets aggressive because my editing style is not exactly the same as theirs.
 * I do not consider what I'm doing a disruption, and I have been making positive changes here for many years. I really am open to criticism, as well as discussion on the finer points of Wikipedia. I'd appreciate it if you would assume that I am here to help, as I think my record shows.
 * I would also appreciate it if you would not revert my edits - particularly before I'd even had a chance to continue this discussion, as at Cessna Citation Latitude and Embraer ERJ family. In my recent edits of those articles, I made several necessary style fixes, shortened a few long ref names, and removed some seemingly unnecessary line breaks. Frankly, I found the line breaks bizarre, and not something I commonly run across while editing. To me, they made the page unnecessarily long. I see your point about the use of these line breaks... but it's a very uncommon practice, and I assumed it had been done in error.
 * Ultimately those line breaks do not change the appearance of the publicly-readable article, but my capitalization and punctuation changes do, and I wish you hadn't removed them.
 * I will leave the line breaks alone in the future.
 * About the ref names. For the most part, the editors who added these massive refnames have not been active since 2014-2017 or so. If they'd been added by a recently active editor, I would be glad to discuss it with them.
 * These refnames are often literally over 100 characters, spanning the width of the editing box and hugely cluttering the page. Since the whole point of a named ref is to avoid the article being a bloated mess that's hard to edit, the ref name should not be as long as the citation itself. Along the way, I found many which were not quite that massive, but more like ref name = "Cessna Takes First Flight in May - Flying Magazine 2020" - which also seemed excessive, so I've been shortening those as well.
 * I see where you're coming from on the single-use ref name thing, and will devote some thought to that. Ultimately, my edits are not harming the articles, and, in my opinion, are making them easier to edit. That is certainly my intention. As you say, editors have idiosyncracies, but we are working on the same side here. Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 13:31, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi Jessica, does good work, but he does have a few unique idiosyncrasies he uses in his editing. (I do too, so that's not a criticism as such.) His use of hidden notes and placing sentences is definitely unique, but I see its usefulness even while not using that style myself.

As to the ref names, Help:Footnotes offers some guidance. As far as length, "Please consider keeping reference names simple.." is the closest it comes to covering that, though not explicitly. To me, shorter is simpler. On using ref names for future use: "You may optionally provide reference names even when the reference name is not required. This makes later re-use of the sourced reference easier." Therefore, I wouldn't remove them just because the ref is only cited once. I've had to reuse refs on many occasions, and it's much simpler if the ref names are already there. I usually add them myself if I use the Cite tool from the tool bar, which makes it easy to add. I hope that helps! BilCat (talk) 05:05, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Jessica, thanks for the comments. I'm sure you're here to help, and thanks for your constructive edits, but to avoid any clashes, perhaps it could be best to avoid changing styles? As you said my editing style is not exactly the same as theirs, should you try to impose your style or leave theirs? Thanks!--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:39, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * , I was asked for my opinion here, and I wasn't planning on giving it otherwise. But I am confused as to what styles you think I'm favor of changing or imposing? I thought I advocated the opposite here. Thanks. BilCat (talk) 07:46, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, sorry for the misunderstanding: I was replying to Jessica, not you! I thought it was the flow of the conversation.--Marc Lacoste (talk) 10:43, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * No worries! BilCat (talk) 19:31, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Regarding imposing one editing style on another:
 * Spacing: Your preferred method of spacing sentences is fine by me, and as I said, I'll leave this alone going forward. I hadn't seen that sort of sentence placement before, and it didn't occur to me that it could be a useful method. I take your point about this tactic being useful in comparing page edits, as I often struggle to see exactly what's been changed.
 * When I removed your spacing, it was soon after I'd found some spacing in other articles that was really broken up, not just
 * between sentences,
 * but more
 * like this, along
 * with some      odd extra spacing       between words. The article displayed correctly, but editing it called for a lot of scrolling, so I removed some of those breaks and spacing.
 * I assumed your sentences breaks were something along the same lines, and maybe an artifact caused by someone copying their text from elsewhere and pasting it into the wikipedia window. Now that I've been told it was a deliberate choice, and something you find useful, I won't remove them in future. So, I have no intention of imposing my editing style on yours.
 * Ref names: This is a bit different, because although huge refnames don't damage the readability of an article, they do clutter the page and make it harder to edit. I've mentioned several times above how unwieldy I find them, but just to illustrate the point, "FlightglobalBellTargetsMidNovemberForJetRangerXFirstFlight" is a real example from Bell 505 Jet Ranger X. I've found many that were even longer. Thank you for finding the "keep them simple" mention in the guidelines. I'm often trimming a thousand characters of insanely long refnames from these aviation articles. Regardless of the original editors' intent or preferred style, I don't think it's a good policy to encourage bloated, unnecessary ref names like this. As I mentioned, from what I can tell, most of these citations were added nearly a decade ago, by apparently now-inactive editors. I can't discuss it with them, so I'm doing my best to tidy the articles, the same way I do with style errors, typos, etc.The long ref names aren't something I would call an error, but I also don't think they're something we should keep or encourage.
 * So in this area, yes, I guess my actions could be described as imposing my editorial style... but I'm also upholding what I honestly think is best policy (we can quibble over what constitutes a perfect ref name, but can we agree it shouldn't be one page-spanning unreadable run-on sentence...?). Every article has an Edit button for a reason, and I'm "being bold" and fixing something I think needs fixing. Thank you, Jessicapierce (talk) 23:47, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I agree those long ref names are goofy. I wouldn't actively shorten them, but I understand your actions. I don't know if a perfect ref name could exist. The usual form I use, [source][date] is a proposition, like the honed-by-the-age [author][year] academic ref names. But I'm afraid leaving only a common word like "full" is barely better than abstract numbers. Cheers!--Marc Lacoste (talk) 05:48, 18 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi, I forgot my rationale for removing ref names used only once: when editing a single section and removing/replacing a ref, if it has no name I'm sure it's not reused elsewhere and can be removed immediately, while if it has a name I expect it is used again and should be kept for a possible usage outside the section, even if it's not: more work for the poor editor! Cheers,--Marc Lacoste (talk) 06:57, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

Requesting help with Resilience (materials science)
Hello, I've repeatedly removed additions to Resilience (materials science) which have again been re-added by the contributor, before/without resolving issues with formatting, style, punctuation, caps, spacing, readability, and citations. In addition, there's a clear COI issue - the contributor is adding his own research. Please see the conversation on Sir 68 G A178's Talk page - I appreciate that he responded, and does seem to be editing in good faith, but the issues in his repeatedly resubmitted content have not been addressed.

My entry under threat
Hi Jessica, my entry has a notice from an editor saying it needs more certification. That was followed for a time by people saying KEEP and one saying DELETE. Those have gone now. A friend has now added some links to newspaper reviews of my films. Can the threat to delete me now be removed please?

Jack pizzey (talk) 13:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't see any "keep/delete" discussion on the article in question.
 * My involvement in this happened 4 years ago, and was limited to the removal of the following text at A Paris Education:
 * "REVIEW I found this film stupefyingly sleep-inducingly drama-free and dismally banal. If you want to see a film about university students in Paris seeking meaning I recommend Bertolucci's THE DREAMERS."
 * Aside from being non-neutral in tone, your addition contained no actual information about the topic. Wikipedia doesn't collect film reviews (with the exception of exerpts from well-known media sources).
 * If you're referring to something else, please let me know, but the above deletion is the extent of my involvement with your Wikipedia activity, and is really all I can speak on. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 15:13, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Response to Jessicapierce regarding edits to Exile Wikipedia page
Dear Jessicapierce, please allow the edits we made to Exile's Wikipedia page that you disallowed. My husband is the best and most accurate reference on his own life.

We began editing the Wikipedia page because it contains many mistakes and inaccuracies regarding my husband, JP Pennington and his band, Exile. JP requested inaccurate information on his life and career be corrected. Since he's the expert on his life, I think it's right that he be able to make those changes. He is one of the founding members of Exile. The band was founded in 1963 when he was 14 years old, and he was one of those founding members. At age 14, he played bass for the band. He switched to guitar around 1973. The band did not move to Lexington after high school. They were still living in Richmond, Ky. In the late 70s JP became Exile's lead singer. He is now 74. The band was NEVER called Jimmy Stokely and The Exiles. It was just The Exiles and then shortened to simply Exile. There is so much misinformation on this Wikipedia page that we were only able to correct the Early years section and the section with former members listed but had plans to continue editing other sections in the coming days. JP did not even know some of the names listed in the former members section and this band has been his life's work. Some musicians were listed who were never members of Exile but were hired only as side players and not considered members of Exile. That is inaccurate and should be corrected. Please allow us to correct the mistakes for history's sake. Wikipedia does a lot of damage by letting so-called experts create their own history. People look to Wkipedia for factual information, but Exile's page is full of misinformation that we feel we have the right to correct. My reference is founding member JP Pennington. He shouldn't have to reference other sources to write his history correctly. He is the living expert on the history of this band. My husband is happy to answer any questions you might have regarding his requested changes of misinformation about his life and career in this band.

Thank you for your help,

Suzie Pennington, wife of JP Pennington, lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter for the band Exile. Pennwifey (talk) 17:13, 8 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for your reply. I believe you are who you say you are, and I can sympathize with the frustration of seeing incorrect statements here about your husband. I have no vested interest in this specific topic, but I absolutely do want Wikipedia to be as factual as possible, so we are on the same side here.


 * However, this still leaves us with two problems - the lack of citations, and the conflict-of-interest issue. Sometimes Wikipedia has a reputation as a place where anyone can post anything, regardless of the truth, but this isn't the case. Claims need to be backed up with evidence of some sort, meaning written proof posted in credible sources. Being the person (or an advocate for the person) involved in the topic, is just not enough for Wikipedia. Surely the accurate history of the band was described by the press at some point? That's what you will need, to add/change these details in the article.


 * The conflict-of-interest issue is also a big deal, and please do read the information I posted on your Talk page.


 * I am not the one to guide you through this, but I do have some ideas you can start with. These are easy, and don't require you to learn a lot of Wikipedia formatting. The first is to post a request on the band's discussion page (every article has a Talk tab at the top, or just click here) and ask someone else to make the changes you'd like to see. Then the onus is on another editor to find citations for those facts, and it avoids the conflict-of-interest issue.


 * Also, if you'd like more guidance, or simply a second opinion on all this, you can post the Template:Help me on your own Talk page. That link describes how to use it, but in short, posting on your Talk page will raise an alert for another editor to step in and help you.


 * I think we can get the article into a state that is more accurate to the facts you and your husband would like to see posted, but the process does need to be done by the book. Thank you for your time, Jessicapierce (talk) 15:48, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

Boy meets Girl.
Hello. Please could you say why the above subject must have only linked items ? Heath St John (talk) 00:59, 30 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Sure, you can find a quick guide to disambiguation pages here, and a more detailed guide here; MOS:DABRL is probably the most relevant section.
 * If you write an article on the topic, it would of course be fine to add to disambiguation pages, but unti then, there's really no need for it. Disambiguation pages are meant to help differentiate between same-titled topics which have Wikipedia pages of their own, not be a comprehensive list of things with the same name. Hope this helps. Jessicapierce (talk) 00:43, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks.
 * I'll certainly read the items you've mentioned. But
 * ut if I'm to find there a simple sentence which says what I don't take from what I understand so far to be the case, that after a disambiguation page has listed the topics which have pages of their own, those with the same words may not be refered to separately beneath, I'll be very surprised.
 * That'd be a worthwhile innovation to make for subjects which are so obscure they'd be most unlikely to receive many visits, yet, should still be informative and may lead people to take an interest anyway on whatever the subject was.
 * I'm proposing something titled ' Topics using same Term/Phrase/Title ', then, on whichever subject the disambiguation page happens to be, at the bottom of such a page, which are without their own page, for the reason above. Heath St John (talk) 03:18, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

Pasadena Unified
Jessica, I see you made some minor changes to Pasadena Unified. I appreciate help on the citation format.

I am adding significantly more information than the old page and was waiting for clean up or a bot to do it.

However regarding citations, you and a few others have been inconsistent in demands, and trivial in removals.

These are relatively minor statements that are cited throughout multiple source documents. The FIRST and BEST course of action would be to tag it that you want a footnote for something, not delete it and bury it.

Or for your removal of Pasadena High School moving from its location on Hill and Colorado, to East Pasadena, the onus is on you to prove and cite that it didn't happen if you're going to remove something.

The same applies for change to the school board, because if you had looked it up instead of an arbitrary revert and no work, you would have seen all of the board members and that the information was accurate. You also wouldn't have added in non-sensical categories like a mascot for a school district.

Debatable that adding a source for a School Board president and other members is required when (1) it wasn't before and (2) the district website it linked. This is your source. These are not claims that should require line by line to the same document that has been cited multiple times. JakesBurger (talk) 21:59, 4 January 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm seeing that I made three edits to Pasadena Unified School District on Dec. 26.


 * The first was to revert an edit which added badly broken formatting, destroying the readability of the page. You can see the article as it was here.


 * One effect of that reversion was to re-add the "mascot" category to the infobox, which evidently is not something this school district does. Perhaps others do. In any event, if there is no mascot and that field is left blank, nothing about mascots will appear in the visible version of the infobox. It is a nonissue.


 * My next two edits were very basic cleanup, to bring the article more in line with Wikipedia's MOS.


 * You, or anyone else, is welcome to update the article. If adding board members, ideally one should include a source, but I don't consider it a huge deal if you don't. I don't know if you were the author of the anonymous edits I reverted, but you are welcome to resubmit the same changes and additions, with or without a source - I won't stand in your way. I would ask, though, that you use Preview, to make sure the page is left in a readable state, instead of wrecked. Let me know if I can help. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 22:12, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

Email about Friday wikimeet
Pharos (talk) 23:51, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Requesting help from experienced admin, please.
Hello, thanks for your time. I have wandered into a whole-ass mess. New user Charmetric has a vested interest in removing sourced content at Sikder Group. This user's edits are also damaging citations and introducing other errors. There has been a ton of back-and-forth at this article in recent days; I believe the last good version is my edit here.

Since my subsequent fixes have also been reverted by this user and we're getting close to edit war territory, I reported this issue at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. I got a reply from Toketaa, who reverted some, but not all, of the problematic changes at the article in question.

To complicate things, with all respect, Toketaa has a complicated history with Wikipedia, including various blocks, and does not seem to believe in posting warnings to vandals' pages.

I need an experienced admin to step in here. Honestly, I don't care anymore if the Sikder Group article ends up as garbage. My larger concern is the anger and slander coming from Charmetric. From this user's talk page:

"she is acting out in a facist manner allinged with politcal opposition to silence an deformate. Remove here editor of a the week patch and pelase fix the pages that she malicopusly destoryed"

As unreadable as that is, it's still uncool. Can someone please have a word with this user? I'm ready to leave this behind me, but I would appreciate some backup enforcing general Wikipedia policies here, with regard to content editing, and civil behavior.

Thank you so much for your time. Jessicapierce (talk) 16:27, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Update: The page has been restored, thanks to GabberFlasted (thank you!), though I don't expect it will stay that way, and I do still need someone to explain some things to Charmetric please. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 16:30, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Toketaa, if you don't know what to warn with (frankly, neither do I), please let someone else step in and handle this. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 16:31, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Not sure if it's meant for me to add the following, since I'm not the helper, but since the issue has been dealt with for now, I'm going to post the "helped" template:

Invitation to join New pages patrol
Hello Jessicapierce! Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:20, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
 * We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
 * Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
 * Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
 * If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Need help from experienced editor, please (COI/nonconstructive issue)
Help me

Hello, I've posted the details at Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a situation at the Milan Knežević (Montenegrin politician) article. I have not had any responses there, and am wondering if perhaps I posted in the wrong spot.

In short, a new user has made many changes to this article over the past months, 100% of which have been reverted. There is a clear conflict of interest ("I am Milan Knežević's representative"), as well as many other problems - the edits are extremely worsening the page (removing all references, removing previous good content, etc.).

The user is now threatening police action against myself or anyone who alters the page.

I would love someone to step in and deal with this user, as this is really not my area. If that isn't possible, please let me know if this needs to be reported on the incidents noticeboard or elsewhere. Thank you for your time. Jessicapierce (talk) 02:34, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi there, the appropriate forum will be the incidents noitceboard, as this is a legal thread that should be immediately reported. Don't forget to pfovide diffs. Toadette  ( Let's discuss together! ) 08:04, 27 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you! I have posted there. Jessicapierce (talk) 17:02, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
