hi. im distant relative of the legendary businessman mr. ahmet ertegun, founder of atlantic records. claims of serj tankian, an armenian ultra-nationalist rock musician about mr. ertegun is not true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KX49 (talk • contribs) 09:15, 2 January 2022 (UTC)


 * @KX49, Wikipedia does not work like this. You need to back statements with reliable sources. For any further problem, ask in the Teahouse. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  09:18, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

this is turkish language article about mr. ertegun's ideology. he was a true supporter of world peace. wikipedia should be the source of truth. http://emremineoglu.uk/muzik-aski-ayrimcilik-ve-ahmet-ertegun/


 * @KX49, please edit if you have a reliable source. However, why are you removing information and references?

Ana Belen Garcia Antequera
Hello, Kpddg,

If an article has existed for almost 7 years, it's unlikely that there is no context to identify the subject unless an editor has gone through and removed a great deal of content from the article. You are much more likely to find CSD A1 among brand new articles but, please remember, do not tag articles right after they have been created, give content creators some time to work on their articles before tagging them for deletion (unless there are copyright violations or BLP violating content). Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 07:06, 3 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Ok @Liz. Will keep this in mind. Thank You. Kpddg   (talk)  08:06, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Updates to Dirk Maggs Wikipedia page
Hi this is Dirk Maggs. My Wikipedia handle is comedycrank. You've reverted a lot of the changes I have tried to apply to it today to bring it up to date and remove subjective or conjectural updates, several made by people unknown to me who have either copied and pasted material from my website or added notes of their own. For example my place of birth was given as Bristol when it is the Channel Islands. So after a brief attempt a few weeks ago to fix that, I've made a concerted effort this afternoon to both make the page more accurate and clear out some of the verbiage, particularly where there was a long list of old radio productions but scarce details about major projects which have happened in the last few years. I don't have a lot of spare time so I set myself an hour or so today to try and fix some of the issues so at least the template warnings didn't apply any more. Now the page has been reverted, so I'm at a loss as to how I can help make the entry more accurate - being its subject - without being second-guessed. As someone who regularly contributes when Wikipedia asks for financial help I presume accuracy in the entries so I'm a bit disturbed that my corrections to a page about myself are found to be wanting. Perhaps the reversion could be reverted? Comedycrank (talk) 16:10, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * @Comedycrank Wikipedia needs reliable sources to make your edits. Contact the Teahouse for better information. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  06:45, 8 January 2022 (UTC)

Update to last message regarding Dirk Maggs Page
Hi. I have re-uploaded the updated version of the page, logged in this time. Am hoping this will establish my bona fides and avoid another reversion. all best Dirk — Preceding unsigned comment added by Comedycrank (talk • contribs) 17:11, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

GA reviews
Thank you again for reviewing and promoting Mudumalai NP to GA!! While I appreciate your effort to reduce the back log in GANs, I think it was premature to nominate and promote the page on the Asiatic cheetah. The nominator has not contributed anything prior to nominating the page, and it still has quite a few shortcomings. For future reviews, I recommend that you check the contributions of the nominator so to able to assess whether s/he is really familiar with the subject. And next: does the page meet the B-class criteria, does lead adequately summarise content, is content adequately sourced, are additional sources needed or missing that warrant to be added? Cheers – BhagyaMani (talk) 10:16, 8 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Fine, my apologies. Thanks for informing. Will keep in mind. Once again, my sincere apologies. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  10:20, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You don't need to apologise!! Thanks for your understanding. – BhagyaMani (talk) 10:36, 8 January 2022 (UTC)

You made a mistake on Rachel Matthews reversion
The change you reverted contained an accurate edit summary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.64.189.57 (talk) 04:23, 9 January 2022 (UTC)


 * A lot of content had been removed in that edit, and hence I reverted it. Please provide relevant edit summaries and discuss this removal on the article talk page. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  07:15, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Golden Retriever GA
Hello Kpddg, thank you for commencing the Golden Retriever GA. Would you please allow me to attempt to rectify the issues you have raised with the article before failing the review? As I see it you want several sentences restructured and I clearly linked one incorrect reference in the popularity section, I feel this can be done in pretty short order. Typically a review occurs over a week, I feel three hours a little hasty. Cavalryman (talk) 10:51, 8 January 2022 (UTC).
 * Kinda ironic how he promoted Asiatic cheetah instantly and failed this article immediately. 2001:4455:1A9:E100:B9FF:8C1B:DCCD:8FD3 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 10:54, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
 * There were many issues with the prose of the article. Hence, I decided to fail it. All reasons have been mentioned on the GA page. I highlighted all points of improvement in the article. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  14:43, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Kpddg, as a courtesy I am coming here to update you. I have raised your review at WT:Good article nominations (I assume you are aware as you were pinged) and consensus is you failed the nomination overly hastily. As such I have reopened the review and requested a second opinion. Cavalryman (talk) 01:41, 9 January 2022 (UTC).


 * Kpddg, as per WP:GAN/I "Depending on the responsiveness of the nominator, you may decide to put the review "on hold" for about seven days to allow time for issues to be fixed." This you did not do. Perhaps you might like to acquaint yourself with (1) the requirements of WP:GAI, and (2) use of the possessive in plural nouns as per MOS:PLURALNOUN - we expect our reviewers to at least comply with the English Wikipedia's use of the English language. With only 1,870 edits under your belt, I doubt that you have "sufficient knowledge and experience with Wikipedia content policies" per WP:GAC to be conducting GA reviews - your attitude is commendable, but you ability at this time does not pass review. 14.2.193.197 (talk) 03:16, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay then. I will not further review an article, till the required experience and permission  is gained, as it is against the policies. However, please inform where have I not complied with the 'English Wikipedia's use of the English language' ? Thank You. Kpddg   (talk)  06:45, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, you were asked "to acquaint yourself" with MOS:PLURALNOUN, clearly you have not done that else you would understand why I suggested it, refer your GAC comment: 'Prior to the publication Marjoribanks' meticulously' Why is there an apostrophe after his name?. MOS:PLURALNOUN is the reason why. Regards, 14.2.193.197 (talk) 10:14, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Further, GAC is not a judgement, it is a dialogue between two well-intentioned editors. Both parties need to understand why the other party holds a position on something. Only through genuine discussion will both parties learn something, and the final assessment can be made. That is how you will develop the experience that you need. With that new approach, you will make a very valuable GAC contributor. Happy editing! 14.2.193.197 (talk) 20:51, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Ezhava Aricle edit
Hi Kpddg, I noticed in the view history section, you have restored some of the edit removal, I agree with that. its about thePolyandry? But it was written "Restored revision 1064796364 by Malayalee0121 (talk): Unexplained content removal". but I don't believe that edit you have restored was mine. Could you please check it if you have time. Thank you Malayalee0121 (talk) 16:56, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ezhava&action=history


 * @Malayalee0121, an IP address had removed a lot of content without explaining why. Hence, I reverted it to the previous better version, that was yours. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  03:48, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Kpddg I see, sometime the edit history is confusing me. The IP address might be a sock editor. I don't have sufficient evidence, but I am keeping an eye on it. Thank you for checking on that article. Have a great day ! Malayalee0121 (talk) 06:16, 11 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Okay Thank You! And happy editing!! Kpddg  (talk)  10:20, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Vandalisation of a page
Thank you for you help.

The page of Carl Eduard von Bismarck has been vandalised by editors, with unsourced information, with clear intent to mislead and harm. How can we avoid that the page keep on being vandalised? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otto-Christian von Bismarck (talk • contribs) 05:04, 11 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Otto-Christian von Bismarck. The content you are trying to remove has been backed by sources, this is why editors are reverting your edits. Rather than removing content, first discuss this issue on the article talk page. If you want more help, feel free to post a query in the Teahouse. Also, remember to sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ). Thank You. Kpddg   (talk)  05:09, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

False sources
That is not a "source" is a planked source and the editing is transmitting false information and translation. How to avoid that the page keep being constantly vandalised? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otto-Christian von Bismarck (talk • contribs) 05:17, 11 January 2022 (UTC)


 * @Otto-Christian von Bismarck, Please refer to my message above. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  05:19, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Reverting
Hi Kpddg, thank you very much for the wonderful welcome message. A user is reverting my all edits continuously. But I think the edits were right. Thanks. Troyol (talk) 14:41, 11 January 2022 (UTC)


 * @Troyol, could you kindly specify which page you are having a problem with? Thank You; awaiting your response. Kpddg   (talk)  15:17, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If the page in concern is Murad Hasan, I agree that the word 'takla' should not be used for the reasons you mentioned on User Talk: Snackmurat.However, please provide reliable sources for your other additions to the page. Thank You. Kpddg  (talk)  15:53, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Persistent disruptive editing by Charizard Bucko
No idea why this user is making disuptive changes/ adjust the content and cast character names which already mentioned in right and short order here. I have even reverted them twice to keep it short and accoring to the official premise and cast details but the user again makes those same edits  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.54.89.180 (talk) 13:47, 14 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello 60.54.89.180. To start....I do not have much idea about this movie. Charizard Bucko is adding more information about the cast, while you are removing that. That's why I initially reverted your edit. As long as the info is accurate and backed by reliable sources, the additions are fine. For problems, first, discuss this issue on the article talk page. Have a look at Conflict of interest. However, if there is still a dispute, the best place for better assistance would be  Teahouse or Dispute resolution. Sorry that I am not able to help much, for I am not familiar with the article. Thank You. Kpddg   (talk)  14:01, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Rollback Trial (1 month)
Hi Kpddg. After reviewing your request, I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3AKpddg enabled] rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! F ASTILY  21:57, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
 * Use common sense.


 * Thank you Fastily for granting me rollback trial rights. I will make sure to use it appropriately. After the time of one month ends, should I request again at WP: Requests For Rollback or on your talk page? And is installing any tool like RedWarn or Huggle going to have any benefits? Thank you again. 😊 - <span style="font-family:Segoe print; color:#FF8C00; text-shadow:skyblue 0.2em 0.2em 0.4em; font-weight:bold">Kpddg   (talk)  04:09, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Please use Requests for permissions/Rollback at the end of the trial. There's no requirement to use Huggle/RedWarn, but they can make it easier to revert/warn disruptive users. -  F ASTILY   06:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
