Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers,  Cassiopeia  talk  04:14, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

UFC Fight Night 233

hi, MrBooke, Pls note that we do not use dependent source (Ticket Master) for source but independent, reliable source. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia  talk  04:14, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

UFC Fight Night 235, UFC Fight Night 233, List of UFC events
Hi MrBooke, pls do not change the article name. When an event is announced by the independent, reliable source, then we create the page and all other event after that will be move to the numbering accordingly. Once the event name is appear in the UFC page then we would change the name. As of whether is UFC Fight Night or UFC on ESPN or UFC on ABC will be determined by UFC Sherdog name - it is a little complicated to tell you the reasons but in short since the event name is not determine, we also use UFC Fight Night XXX first until we know which TV channel the event will be held as this is the historical UFC event naming in Wikipedia. So pls do not change the name in any UFC related pages. Secondly and most importantly, pls observe for while on how the MMA related pages are being edit by the regular experienced MMA editor first, before adding/changing anything.

MMA related articles
Greetings. Since you have edited a number of pages of MMA related articles in Wikipedia, pls see the below info so you may understand how things work here.

MMA related articles - info
Best. Cassiopeia  talk  02:34, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) Pls visit WikiProject Mixed martial arts and read through the MMA Wikipedia guidelines.
 * 2) When a bout is announced which stating "finalizing, in work, rumors, verbally agreed,  in the press, this means the bout is not official yet. Wait until it official before place it under the "Announced bouts" section of the event page.
 * 3) When a bout is announced in the press, editors put the match up in the  "Announced bouts" section (inline citation is needed)
 * 4) When UFC.com / its local web site (pls check the reference beneath the fight card table in the Wikipedia page), the editors would remove the bout in the "Announced bouts" and place it in the "fight card" section.
 * 5) When a fighter pulls from a fight (due to injury/or by UFC/ visa issues and etc), we placed the info in the "Background section" (inline citation needed) and remove the injured fighter name and put "TBD".
 * 6) When a injured fighter has been replaced, editor put the info in the background section (with inline citation). If the new match up has not been shown in the UFC.com fight card, then we will removed the match up from the fight card and place it back to "Announced section". If the match up already shown in the UFC.com then jut put the replacement fighter in the fight card section.
 * 7) When the event named has been announced (such as UFC Fight Night: dos Santos vs. Tuivasa) then we place the info in the background section (with inline citation). If UFC.com has shown the event names (Fight Night events or UFC on ESPN) such as  UFC Fight Night: Cowboy vs. Medeiros or UFC on ESPN: Reyes vs. Weidman, then editor would move the article and article talk page name accordingly and not before, except the flagship event  such as UFC 187, UFC 242 and etc.
 * 8) No colour box in the fighter's page infobox  at event fight card page. No title eliminator in the fight card or body text in fighter page or event page. No (c) - champion on the event fight card unless the fighter is the current champion of the weight division.
 * 9) "method" in the fight table is as per Sherdog.com as per WP:MMA guideline and please do not interpret the method yourself even if the method is incorrect as Wikipedia is all about WP:verification and not the true.
 * 10) Info box as per Sherdog. No other nick names or else we would have many nicknames pop up every time there is a internet meme.
 * 11) Reach as per UFC.com as Sherdog dont have the info. Pls provide inline citation.
 * 12) Stand - need to provide inline citation. IF you can find source to support it, leave it blank
 * 13) Style - "The style parameter should only be used in MMA fighters that have participated professionally or in international competitions in other combat sports (i.e. boxing or kickboxing) and who are notable in said sports and deserve an article for their merits in these other sports (i.e. Antônio Rogério Nogueira, Alistair Overeem). It is suggested to MMA editors that they actively remove the style parameter in infoboxes of MMA fighters that do not meet these criteria." Leave style for modern mma fighter as they have to train several combat disciplines.
 * 14) No Flag icon on info box or fight table.
 * 15) Info could be obtain from Sherdog on Info box - need to support by sources such as teachers, belts, notable relatives, university, occupation outside fighting career and etc.

 * Mr Booke, As mentioned on edit summary to you and the above warning message, pls provide independent, reliable source, such as from the newspapers or books, when add/ change/remove content for verification which is the core policy of Wikipedia. To provide source (inline citation) pls use the horizontal format of Template:Cite web if the source is from the web.

Pls provide edit summary so other editors know your edit nature
Hello. I have noticed that you edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! <b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  04:01, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

 * Mr Booke, when adding edit summery, try to state a brief info of your nature of your edit, instead states "added". You can (for examples)


 * added an announced bout - "XXX vs. YYY" "
 * when a bout is shown on UFC fight card - "official" (make sure first check if the bout is actually on UFC event web page
 * when a fighter is out of an event - "ZZZ medical issue/pulled from event/ZZZ out" w
 * spelling correction - "sp"
 * when the edit is so obvious and simple info such as changing ";" to ":" - we just put "m" for minor edit summary
 * Hope this help. Be safe and best.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  04:33, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

if the info form the subject, that means the source is not independent nor reliable
Hi MrBooke, I have seen a few of your edits such as THIS on tha you stated the info is from the subject and the info is from utube channel. I understand you did provide sources after the initial edits. However, pls note that which I have mentioned to you before, "all social media" is considered not reliable source including utube, all info from the subject itself is considered not reliable. (Also, all sources that is connected/affiliated to the subject are also considered not independent such as UFC, ESPN, their coaches and etc). Info that is added or changed needs to be both "independent and reliable" such as from the books or newspapers. So if you add or change anything, then just provide the independent, reliable source (inline citation) for verification and on the edit summary just briefly state the nature of the edit. (DONT ever state the subject announced it on their social media or utube and the source your provide (the utube or social) can NOT be used . Stay safe and best. <b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>  talk  01:10, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
