Deprodding of List of My Big Fat Greek Wedding characters
I have removed the tag from List of My Big Fat Greek Wedding characters, which you proposed for deletion. The article has lots of problems, but it does not necessarily need to be deleted because of that. I think that with some citations added and a bit of cruft cut this could be an encyclopedic article. If you still think this article should be deleted, please do not add back to the page. Instead, feel free to list it at Articles for deletion. Thanks! snood1205 16:46, 31 December 2021 (UTC)

Ami Ayalon, the commando commander of an Israeli who led the attack on Green Island says that they suffered out of the 40 people who fought on the island. Only 2 were not injured or killed. Paraphrase the article. Battle of Green Island. Израильский эсминец Эйлат (talk) 20:33, 31 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Do you want the source Израильский эсминец Эйлат (talk) 20:34, 31 December 2021 (UTC)


 * I'm happy to help with editing and willing to read and contribute based on reputable sources. I read your message and briefly skimmed the article on Battle of the Green Islands. I haven't been involved in editing anything in this area so far, so I'm curious why you're telling me to paraphrase an article on this. If you have a reputable source and want to contribute to Wikipedia, you should go for it. If you want copyediting help, you're welcome to write a summary of the information and post it below. I can try to help copyedit before it goes in the article. - Popoki35 (talk) 22:32, 31 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Yes, of course Ami Ayalon, the commando commander of the same Israeli who led the attack on the Green Island admitted that the goal was to occupy the island and the losses were 38 wounded and killed out of the 40 who fought on the island Израильский эсминец Эйлат (talk) 23:17, 31 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Do you want Ami Elon's confession Израильский эсминец Эйлат (talk) 23:53, 31 December 2021 (UTC)


 * No, I don't. I'm not understanding why I'm involved, and you didn't answer my questions. You should probably do your own editing. Best of luck. - Popoki35 (talk) 13:59, 1 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Ok I understand thank you Израильский эсминец Эйлат (talk) 05:32, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you
Thank you, Throast. I look up to you as an editor, so that means a lot. Popoki35 (talk) 17:34, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Threat against you and Throast by Ryan Kavanaugh
Hi Popoki35 - just in case you weren't aware of this tweet by Ryan Kavanaugh. Have a look through this SPI for the background of the whole Ryan Kavanaugh saga if you aren't familiar  --203.18.35.200 (talk) 03:26, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

Re: SPI
Hi Popoki35. To answer your question from, usually when an editor is blocked, they can still edit their own user talk page. This is to allow them to appeal that block if they feel that it is unjustified. However, if they abuse it, their ability to edit their own user talk page while blocked can be revoked as well. (I'm responding here instead of the SPI archive since archives generally aren't supposed to be edited per WP:DETA.) All the best, Mz7 (talk) 06:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for alerting me to the problem with editing the archive. I'm sorry for doing that.
 * The user replied to a template I posted on their talk page before the SPI. They defamed me and another editor by calling contributions into question with no evidence, and they implied I was breaking COI guidelines. The subject of the main article has recently drawn a lot of public eyes to this area of Wikipedia, so defamatory claims on a talk page may be somewhat visible.
 * I've loved Wikipedia for years as a reader, and I'm enjoying contributing and editing. There are a number of articles and projects I want to work on, so my reputation here has value to me. I understand from conversing with a more experienced editor that there may not be a lot of recourse, but I wanted to notify someone that an abuse of that talk page has occurred. Thank you, Popoki35 (talk) 09:52, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

BLP reverts
Hey, I just wanted to let you know about WP:BLPUNDEL in case you're not familiar. Before restoring deleted content to BLPs, check if there's already a discussion taking place at the talk page about said deleted content. We have to assume that all editors, even Garen67541 (as difficult as it is), edit in good faith and have genuine policy concerns over the content they've removed. It is essential to reach consensus before we restore. Thank you and keep up the great work. Throast (talk &#124; contribs) 14:23, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the heads up. Good faith seems stretched very far at this point, but you're right. Popoki35 (talk) 15:08, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree with you. In light of his most recent edit to the article, I think it's time to open a proper meatpuppet investigation. I might do that in the coming days. Throast (talk &#124; contribs) 15:18, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

You've received the Purple Barnstar!
Thank you! It's my favorite color, too. :)

Blue Rabbit
I sincerely do appreciate a place where I can share some of my thoughts. The peace offering means more than I can express at the moment. It gets old putting on a tough exterior while attempting to stand on what little ground left to stand on. No matter how much I convince myself that I don't care, then I get wrecked by a children's book. My adoptive Dad was correct when I shared literature with him he wouldn't read because it was to simplistic. I thought it was a wonderful thought provoking read, in reality It was literature written so that a child could comprehend. Funny you would have thought I would of realized not only was I something a mother didn't want, but the man I thought was my father just tolerated me out of obligation.

Its not a "we" are all stuck somewhere. Its everyone else is stuck somewhere together and then there is me stuck on my own. To loosely understanding from an early age without the capacity to articulate internally that everyone is different and I was not one of them. Spending much time watching and carefully observing others so that I could learn how they fit in so well and do my best to mimic them. What a joke that was you know. If anyone wanted to be truthful then we would all admit I could never be one of collective masses its not in the blood. Humorous as learning how to lie was a waste of time and though I learned from the best I was not ever going to get away with it. Not that I wanted to as my grandmother always said you have to tell seven lies for every lie you tell. Yet if you truly believed every sole you ever came in contact with was lying to you then lying seemed natural to master for survival. It was the intentions that were never clear. That is one thing that I could not read from a person was someones true intentions through discernment and observation. So with that said please don't take my lack of trust for this opportunity to share as disrespectful. I will surely edit this extensively to ensure little as possible be can taken out of context for someone who has less than honorable attentions. I hope I am being clear without being rude.

The pity is what I hate the most. So many years it was a look that people would give that I could not associate with an emotion. Then someone who was kind to me once brought it to my attention. I have always been looked down upon with pity. Not everyone of course, I mean I have those that wish worse things than death upon me. The hate I understood, the pity is what no person should experience and endure from so many. Shameful really as I would rather be hated than pitied. It gets old and I eventually became bitter at anyone who glances my way. Ironic as there were so many years I would have loved for someone to have noticed me. Now all they wait for is permission for their turn to take a shot at humiliating me. I have to say the obedience and discipline is amazing to witness.

Ultimately yeah I knew, and I did a lot of what I did wrong because I really wanted to see how much every one truly hated me or how low they would go. How those that were close and even my own kids would turn on me. Not using as an excuse for any action as I'm rebellious without having to prove anything. Sin is sin no matter what and we all have fallen short. Now though my blue dog has lymphoma cancer, and there is not a damn thing I can do about it. Just like the children's story of the blue bunny who lost his boy. I am going to lose one of the three things on this earth that truly loved me unconditionally. Without him I would not have made it this long, and now I have to sit like a POS and helplessly watch him die. Its my fault, and that makes it even worse. To know he is to going to suffer to punish me. The truth I remind myself with is whats wrong with me its a dog right. So many suffer so much over worse tragedies every day. I'm a foolish and shameful for not being grateful for getting another day to wake up with a chance to do better. To be good and live life staying calm; getting fulfillment from family and being productive in society. I mean what am I crying about right... I was blessed with so much and squandered it all away for what.. I can hear the loser chants at the announcement of my death with fingers pointing at my folly. I hope it brings joy to everyone and the whole earth collectively smiles. I am at peace with that as I wouldn't want to be with any one who felt like that anyway.

So I sit every day and mind my own business waiting for whatever comes next. I can't do that though can I? The spice must flow... That's a little joke to lighten up this abysmal pity party I just had for myself in these few paragraphs. Thanks for reading and honestly cool for the creating that invitation. I asked for help once when I badly needed it. I won't do that again, and I would be amiss for not taking responsibility for my part in that unfortunate tragedy. I wouldn't be here today if I had stayed away from wondering what is a blue bunny so yeah that's my extent of impulsiveness for the day. Unlikely I will come back as these things never have gone well for me in the past. Not being greedy for attention or whatever label some kind soul would come up with for me doing this. I'm just trying to survive and take care of my responsibilities without causing trouble or receiving grief. I feel like enough is enough already yet.. whatever its not all about me.

This user page comment seemed sincere. From one stranger to another.... Even though my IP will give me away even if all my packets weren't sniffed on the way out my PC... LOL there is no privacy for me and I have lived like a caged rat with the illusion of freedom long dead. Its all good, always knew G has been watching and was living in a glass house always. Take care and thanks again. 71.86.55.245 (talk) 18:47, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Citation templates as "improvements"
Hello, Popoki35. I see that you've been adding citation templates at Cybele, in entirely good faith, and remarking many of these changes as "improvements" and the like in your edit summaries, rather than a reflection of subjective or personal preference. Some of us (myself included) find most templates difficult to use, and challenging to amend; just FYI, please see WP:citation templates, and the recommended prior use of talk-pages to discuss such changes. Thanks for reading this. Haploidavey (talk) 10:10, 13 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the feedback. I didn't introduce them to the page; a number of references already used them (particularly for the Roller references), and, yes, I did find them to be the most useful as a reader. There were several citation formats in use on the page, so I was working to make the format consistent per WP:WHENINROME. Popoki35 (talk) 10:48, 13 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Right... but apparently not consistent with WP:Consensus, which you didn't seek. Haploidavey (talk) 11:18, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I didn't realize about consensus, especially since they were already there. I'll quit working on the page. Popoki35 (talk) 12:04, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
 * It's up to you, of course, but as far as I'm concerned, you've acknowledged the potential problem, and that's enough. It's an interminable, difficult topic and an interminably difficult article to write. I've given up editing it, and everything about it is a thankless task. If there are any objections to what you've done, they can be voiced on the talk-page. Regards, Haploidavey (talk) 12:48, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you.  The Real Serena Joy Talk  16:00, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Update: Admin declined as a retaliatory report. Discussion was closed. Popoki35 (talk) 01:31, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

Revert request
Hi @Popoki35 I noticed you edited a page on Andrew Tate for what appears to be poor citation but lacks credible proof. Can you revert the changes made on that page: from this (current): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Tate to this (previous): https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Andrew_Tate&oldid=1097693135 @TheRealSerenaJoy Thank you. Swaglessmonk.io (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You can see this talk page discussion for an explanation of my edits. Basically, the information I removed was not cited to reliable sources. Check out WP:BLP for the policy on pages about living people. Popoki35 (talk) 01:29, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * What you did was very unprofessional... Why would you go out of your way and do that? 0xKem (talk) 12:35, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi @Popoki35
 * I personally agree with @0xKem. I want it reverted too.
 * I don't want any bad blood. I'm just curious as to why you deemed some sources unreliable.
 * For example, what makes the Romanian article less reliable than an article from the daily beast.
 * When will you allow me, you or someone else to revert it?
 * If possible, I would like to discuss this somewhere where it's easier than a bullet board. GhostmanJohn (talk) 13:55, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Due content from reliable sources is the standard for inclusion, not anyone's personal preferences. Flat out revert won't be appropriate because the information needs in-line citations to reliable sources. See WP:RS to review the standards for reliable sources. All further discussion of editing or sources belongs on Talk:Andrew Tate. Popoki35 (talk) 22:03, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I would advice against doing obviously biased actions like you did. Whether you dislike him or not, he is not my cup of tea, the content you removed was done on the basis of personal dislike of the subject, much like your attempted deletion of the article on his father Emory Tate. It seems you have a history of edit warring, so I would personally advice against pursuing similar actions. Have a nice day HeinzMaster (talk) 05:58, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
 * All three of your accusations are wrong. I will not be discussing this any further here. Take it to the talk page. Popoki35 (talk) 07:42, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That's not very WP:CIVIL, nor are you assuming good faith. FrederalBacon (talk) 07:42, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

Please avoid edit warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. HeinzMaster (talk) 08:00, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.


 * Please see request for intervention at the noticeboard. I believe a good solution is possible if we stick to policy (eg. WP:BLP, WP:RS) and do as your notice points out: ...use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. Popoki35 (talk) 08:12, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

Edit on James Steven Chanos Wikipedia page
I don't know what your problem is with me that you decided to change Jim Chanos's page after I reverted Andrew Tate's page back to its "accurate" picture.

The additional information regarding Chanos's position on cryptocurrencies weren't poorly sourced since it was directly from a YouTube interview. If you don't consider a YouTube interview of Jim Chanos a reliable source and that me quoting directly from his interview not reliable. Then it's clear to me and everyone else that you only consider things "reliable" if it fits your narrative. Same goes for Andrew Tate's page regarding the fights he's won. James5Knight (talk) 02:22, 19 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Take a look at WP:PST regarding the type of sources Wikipedia is meant to compile. Primary sources (eg. what the subject of a page says) are rarely appropriate, and a lot of that article appears to synthesize information from primary sources against WP policy. Popoki35 (talk) 04:40, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Hey
I just requested temp full again, this isn't gonna stop until that noticeboard has some discussion and consensus is reached. The lack of discussion on the talk, with the reversions happening anyway, makes it obvious what it is, but I fear it may wind up needing significant intervention from the dispute resolution mechanisms available in Wiki to prevent disruption to the article. FrederalBacon (talk) 03:39, 19 July 2022 (UTC)


 * I think you're right. I was hoping for more willingness to work things out, but.. ah, well. Popoki35 (talk) 04:45, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
