Metre vs meter
Hi! You left a question and then removed it at Talk:Metre. Both forms are allowed but only one form within any single article. When an article is created, then the creator chooses the preferred form. It the word wasn't used early on, then the first use of the word defines its form. Afterwards, other editors respect that form. For articles that are very tightly tied to the US, the meter form is always used. Likewise, articles very closely tied to the UK, Australia, New Zealand and other English native countries, the metre form is always used. Otherwise it's the first editor's choice. It can be changed by consensus on the talk page but you need a good reason to convince people. This is all covered by WP:ENGVAR and WP:RETAIN.  Stepho  talk 21:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Bsoyka. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you unlinked one or more redlinks from Endurance (1912 ship). Often redlinks can be helpful, so we don't remove them just because they are red. They help improve Wikipedia by attracting editors to create needed articles.

In addition, clicking on the "What links here" special link (in the Wikipedia Toolbox at left) on a missing article shows how many—and which—articles depend on that article being created. This can help prioritize article creation. Redlinks are useful! Please only remove a redlink if you are pretty sure that it is to a non-notable topic and not likely ever to be created. Thanks! — &#123;{u&#124; Bsoyka }&#125;  talk 03:58, 11 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the comment, I'll definitely keep that in mind for the future. I appreciate you removing my edit. Rafaelmanman (talk) 05:02, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits, too
I'm so over the moon that The Daniels, Brendan Fraser, Michelle Yeoh, and Ke Huy Quan won Oscars. Awards ceremonies are dumb, but when all the best and sweetest nominees get awarded, it's a good thing and I was really pumped to add these edits ASAP. Thanks for working on this article with me, friend. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:53, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
