Question
Did you put stupid messages about vandalism on my talk page? Thank you! MihaiPedia101 (talk) 06:41, 5 February 2023 (UTC)


 * They weren’t stupid messages, they were warnings about you vandalizing articles. Tails   Wx  12:58, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

I agree with you man, Phillip is a loser Nikolacuzmansr (talk) 05:18, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

What is your problem
Hey Phillip, I’m just wondering what is your problem and why do you feel the need to revert my changes? Nikolacuzmansr (talk) 05:16, 7 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Nikolacuzmansr Someone's occupation can't be being gay. I think that's self explanatory Philipnelson99 (talk) 05:18, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Also just a question do you have some sort of a bot or filter? Like I’m curious because I l changed it and then a second later it was reverted Nikolacuzmansr (talk) 05:20, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

David Smith of Ozark AL
I'm trying to add David Smith to Notable People. I've linked articles, and April 4th is David Owen Smith day in Ozark. Please HELP ME! 170.52.166.73 (talk) 22:24, 11 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Looks like the external link you add was either unnecessary/inaproppriate for the article. The subject is non-notable because they do not have an article, and therefore does not belong in the "Notable people" section. You may wish to create a draft for them, if you'd like. Tails   Wx  22:38, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Petter Solberg
You have amended the description of Rallycross in Petter's article. In Europe it is still known and was always known as Rallycross. I recall going to the early events in the 1960's at Lydden Hill when it first started. I have never heard it referred to as "Cross" The official FIA website clearly refers to it as "Rallycross" The reference website is as follows: https://www.fiaworldrallycross.com/world-rx/ Navrally (talk) 11:48, 11 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Navrally I don't know how that got changed in my edit! I was only trying to fix up the infobox that had unknown parameters, should be fixed now. Sorry. Philipnelson99 (talk) 16:44, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks Navrally (talk) 12:27, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Your current removal of my edit was fully wrong please don't do that again I don't like my edits REMOVED do that again I will be forced to delete my account RepublicOfChineseCivilwar (talk) 22:34, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * RepublicOfChineseCivilwar, accounts cannot be deleted once created. Tropicalkitty (talk) 22:36, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * , 2 things: 1, please don't modify other peoples' comments, as you did here. 2, can you explain what this edit was for? Thanks! Tails   Wx  22:52, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Tails Wx I've warned them on their talk page about modifying other editor's talk page comments. Just FYI. Thanks :) Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:54, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem! Just a heads up, though, not sure what this comment is intended for... are they trying to create another account? Tails   Wx  22:56, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Sounds like it! They just got blocked on this one, I will watch the user creation log. Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:57, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Sounds great! Tails   Wx  23:13, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Hello! I'm a little new here. The proof I posted is one I created myself. Am I not allowed to post an original proof? Poeguy (talk) 21:58, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Unsigned sections
Hey there! I observe a lot of unsigned posts above, there's probably around 10 of them. I don't know what to do with them, I might as well go with either removing or archiving them, but what's your opinion on this? Thanks! Tails  Wx  21:51, 17 February 2023 (UTC)


 * If you want to remove them that's fine by me. I've been trying to figure out how I wanted to archive them but since they aren't really legitimate messages, deleting them is totally fine :) thanks @Tails Wx! Appreciate you being a friendly talk page patroller Philipnelson99 (talk) 21:52, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem! If you want me to manually archive them, feel free to ask, otherwise, I'll delete them right now! Anyways, there's a lot of archives from your user talk page, e.g. this one. Is there a way to organize all these archives? Tails   Wx  21:56, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * There should be a way to list them in the archives box but I have no clue how to do it and I've tried several times. Philipnelson99 (talk) 21:57, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm. I'll try running tests on my alternate accounts' sandboxes, see if I can list them. I'll test them out right now, I'll notify you whenever I'm done! :) Tails   Wx  21:59, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * At some point, I will move the first archive page or something. I dunno yet. Philipnelson99 (talk) 21:53, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

The archive testing is done! I've added it for you, let me know if you need it collapsed or general fixes. The code can be viewed here: User:Tails Wx9/sandbox! Tails  Wx  22:37, 17 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Tails Wx Yeah, I'm going to set collapse on it and I think I'll move the rest of the ones that didn't get archived to their relevant archives. Thank you!!! Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:55, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem! Do you know how to collapse it? Because I just asked at the Teahouse on how to... I've taken back the request, but you do know how to? I've spend the last 15 minutes trying to work it out! Tails   Wx  22:56, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Ya know, I don't actually! Philipnelson99 (talk) 23:03, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Uh-oh! Maybe I can ask at the Wikipedia Discord in a few minutes, see if they can help out. Tails   Wx  23:21, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Tails Wx thanks! Philipnelson99 (talk) 23:26, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem! They'll reach out in a couple of minutes, I'll update if they do! Tails   Wx  23:27, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok! It's done! Tails   Wx  23:42, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

It's just not working out, right? ;) Tails   Wx  01:32, 18 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Tails Wx Don't watch me struggle!! Philipnelson99 (talk) 01:45, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey, at least you got it to work! Tails   Wx  01:45, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes but I can't figure out why any months from 2023 are truncated!! Philipnelson99 (talk) 01:47, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Uh-oh, that's not good... Tails   Wx  01:47, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * * sigh* I'll figure it out Philipnelson99 (talk) 01:49, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * And for now, I'm setting the archiver to 30 days. Philipnelson99 (talk) 01:50, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That's a pretty long time! :-) Tails   Wx  01:51, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but at least it gives people time to talk if they need to :) Philipnelson99 (talk) 01:52, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Unless they're a vandal ;) Tails   Wx  02:07, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Ok, should I revert nonsense posts by IPs/Disruptive users? Am I authorized to do so for your talk page? Thanks! Tails  Wx  20:33, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * You have my permission to do so! Philipnelson99 (talk) 20:36, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok! Thanks! Tails   Wx  20:38, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Spelling inconsistency
I have changed the spelling variation judgement in the articles to make it more consistent as they predominantly use American Spelling. The standard spelling is judgment (American):

Sorry
Hello Philip I didn't want to delete this section and it wasn't malicious intent I thought I was in this sandbox mode and was curious what I could do with Wikipedia 2A02:3037:60A:9A80:2C44:758F:F84A:8600 (talk) 20:14, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Swiss8
Hey,

I have tried numerous times to publish a page about a charity and you keep blocking it, you refer me to the article on writting an article which I have read 3-4 times, I have properly referenced the page, and the page was of significance, with multiple mentions from government websites, a leading off road motorcycle manufacturer did a press release about this charity, they have me the prime minister of Australia a few times, but each time I update it it gets pulled down.

I am really at a loss here why it is such a big issue that such an important charity cannot be on wikipedia, multiple other charities are able to get pages on wikipedia so I am curious why this one doesn't get to stay, and any attempt to ask I just get a generic answer that doesn't seem to add up.

Any advice you can offer? Benking84 (talk) 09:26, 23 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Benking84 Wikipedia is not a place to advertise. Your articles have used language that is promotional. Additionally. I noted that the subject of the article has not received significant coverage and other editors have indicated the page reads like advertising. Philipnelson99 (talk) 21:57, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * It is a charity, it doesn't sell anything. I updated the language to be neutral, can you provide a concrete example in the artlcle of a part that sounds like advertising so I can understand what you mean?
 * Significant coverage can be fixed, but I have added multiple references will add a few more. Benking84 (talk) 21:59, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter that it's charity. It still considered promotional material. Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:00, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Benking84:
 * Here's what you need to find for your subject regarding significant coverage:
 * "The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject is not sufficient to establish notability. Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. Such coverage provides an organization with a level of attention that extends well beyond brief mentions and routine announcements, and makes it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization."
 * You'll need to find extensive coverage about your article subject in order for it to meet the notability threshold.
 * Additionally, WP:NOTPROMO says:
 * "Advertising, marketing or public relations. Information about companies and products must be written in an objective and unbiased style, free of puffery. All article topics must be verifiable with independent, third-party sources, so articles about very small garage bands or local companies are typically unacceptable. Wikipedia articles about a person, company or organization are not an extension of their website, press releases, or other social media marketing efforts. External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they identify notable organizations which are the topic of the article. Wikipedia neither endorses organizations nor runs affiliate programs. See also Notability (organizations and companies) for guidelines on corporate notability. Those promoting causes or events, or issuing public service announcements, even if noncommercial, should use a forum other than Wikipedia to do so. Contributors must disclose any payments they receive for editing Wikipedia. See also Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § Paid editing."
 * Your draft pretty needs to avoid promotional material that is designed to puff up the subject, regardless of whether or not the subject sells products.
 * I hope that helps explain why I've warned you for creating inappropriate pages.
 * Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:12, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That make sense, I copied the wording of the wikipedia article on greenpeace so the style and tone is the same as that.
 * I also added a number of new references, these are from news sources, press releases, etc that directly mention if not are entirely focused on the subject matter, now totalling 21 articles. KTM, The Guardian, a few submissions from the government, is this enough? Benking84 (talk) 22:29, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Benking84 I don't believe the sources you have added indicate notability. You could try asking for help at the Teahouse or the Help Desk. Someone may be able to assist you or help you find coverage that establish notability there. I also still think the language is quite promotional. Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:36, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Have asked at teahouse, was not aware of this before. Thanks Benking84 (talk) 22:53, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @Benking84 It's a great resource! Philipnelson99 (talk) 22:55, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
