Feedback on article categories
hello @Lenticel! I created The Mamba Mentality: How I Play article. I am a newbie on Wikipedia and would love some advice. You put my article into some related categories and was wondering if there were other relevant categories or articles I should link to mine?

thanks! - @Kbill98 Kbill98 (talk) 18:09, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Sure. You can use WP:CATDD as a guide for adding categories to articles. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 21:49, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Hotwiki's aggressive behavior
Hi. I would like to consult something about this editor's behavior towards others. This has been going on for several years and a lot of ANI discussions were raised against this user but he only gets "a slap on the wrist" for his aggressive behavior.

Just recently, I got a run-in again with Hotwiki at the Saksi article, restoring texts that he removed because in his opinion, it was "unreferenced". After restoring them, he removed it again and justifying that the information where Mike Enriquez and Vicky Morales were transferred was "trivial", while adding italics on program titles. I restored my edits since there was an agreement before in the last ANI I raised against him that any changes in this article should be discussed in the talk page. Well, you can read the rest of our heated argument at the Saksi talk page and at one point tried to provoke me to revert his edits and be blocked again.

I'm speaking on behalf of other Filipino Wikipedians who have good intentions in editing the articles Hotwiki is trying to gatekeep for several years. If you notice, most of the articles that he gatekeeps have very little or missing information about them. He cuts and removes most of other editor's contributions and dismiss them as "trivial". Checking the Saksi, 24 Oras or Unang Hirit articles alone shows that if you read those articles, you will sense that some information is missing. Not to mention the his behavior in the past when he replaced most of the GMA Network's image title cards and replacing it with the same image that he uploaded.

I have confronted this user several times, and it seems he's just being hard-headed and won't agree on any consensus. What's "right" in his opinion must be followed and the hell other editors' contributions.

What should I do with this? If another ANI will be raised against him, other administrators that have no background or knowledge on his past behavior will just dismiss these accusations and sometimes, the one that is reporting is being gaslit. -WayKurat (talk) 07:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I need to inform that WayKurat personal attacked me yesterday.Hotwiki (talk) 09:47, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 * To add more to this, it seems WayKurat is personally holding a grudge over that article, and him being blocked last September 2023, when I reported him to 3RR. Ever since that happened, I've only ever interacted with him directly once which was yesterday. WayKurat is throwing a lot of accusations. I've tried my best following Wikipedia guidelines and rules. That editors seems to be taking an issue about me removing unreferenced edits. More than 3 years ago, when I removed unreferenced edits and information I found trivial. He had an issue about it. Then when he reported me to Ani years later. He used that opportunity to restore unreferenced material into the Saksi article. That incident later got him blocked for 3RR. Now, he's trying to kick me out of this site and throwing all these accusations towards me. Hotwiki (talk) 10:12, 31 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Says the one that started it. I'm saying this in Filipino since Lenticel is a Filipino as well. Alam mo bang maraming galit na bagong Wikipedia contributors sayo kasi sa pinaggagawa mo sa mga contributions nila? I'm not holding a grudge against you. You are creating a toxic environment within the Filipino Wikipedia community because of your constant gatekeeping. -WayKurat (talk) 10:18, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 * And will you look at that. Another ANI report against you. -WayKurat (talk) 10:26, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

While I appreciate both of you asking for my opinion, I think this should be better off taken in a neutral ground rather than someone's user talk page. Several suggestions can be seen at Dispute resolution. I also don't understand what you mean with slap on the wrist WayKurat as Hotwiki has several blocks under their name due to 3RR. If you really think that context might be missing from any ANI reports then you can link past reports where the user got blocked due to their actions. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 12:31, 31 March 2024 (UTC)


 * After that 1 revert I made (which I did, to also explain why I removed certain things in that article). I immediately took it to the talk page. I only stopped responding in the talk page once that editor started accusing me of personal things. I thought the issue was over the day after, especially I didn't remove the things he reverted after that 1 revert. Until I found out the editor messaged two administrators regarding their issue with me and so I had to explain myself. Hotwiki (talk) 12:38, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

Iloilo State University of Science and Technology
Hello. Can you please check if Iloilo State University of Science and Technology (ISUST) and Iloilo State University of Fisheries Science and Technology (ISUFST) refer to the same university? A new editor who seems to hail from Iloilo recently renamed in the article body the ISUST to ISUFST. I have checked the official website and confirmed the university was indeed renamed to ISUFST in 2023. But there are two articles here, so I don't know if one should be deleted. Sanglahi86 (talk) 19:43, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
 * This seems to be the same university with ISUFST as the latest name. I suggest a merge to ISUFST. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 00:10, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately, I am totally inexperienced in merging articles and personally feel its process is quite complex. Maybe you could you do it please? Sanglahi86 (talk) 14:38, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't have the time to write right now sorry. You can ask someone from the Tambayan for the merge if you want. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 22:46, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Ok, I'll try asking later in Tambayan or see if I could do it myself. Thanks. Sanglahi86 (talk) 09:01, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Pune
Hello! Not sure who to talk to but a newly created possible SPA has had the time replying to nearly every comment for deletion in Articles for deletion/2024 Pune car crash including yours with aspersions in some cases. As someone whom I’ve seen to be more authoritative, I’d like to ask you if it is normal for such behavior or should they be watched. Borgenland (talk) 18:03, 30 May 2024 (UTC)


 * It's probably best to report this to ANI as this seems to be disruptive badgering and casting aspersions. I'm not sure if it is worth reporting this to WP:SPI yet. Lenticel  ( talk ) 00:30, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! It appears someone had also warned them per WP:BLUDGEON. Borgenland (talk) 04:34, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * I've also just opened an SPI as they have opened a sock account just now to bludgeon the article again. Borgenland (talk) 06:10, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
 * thanks for the update. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 22:22, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Deletion of Category Ninety-Nines
Can you explain why you suggested the Category Ninety-Nines for deletion? As a new wikipedia editor, who is trying to improve the content for women's categories, I do not see why my contribution to building this new category was deleted on your suggestion? Nayyn (talk) 18:28, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
 * See Overcategorization. Both of your categories were voted for deletion because of it. -- Lenticel ( talk ) 00:06, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Happy Adminship Anniversary!
