Disambiguation link notification for October 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Digital Photo Professional, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page RAW (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks, I fixed it!
Thanks so much for letting me know about the issue on the stoichiometry page! I appreciate you giving me notice beforehand so that I could clear it up.

Thanks. I could use help in editing out the "ad-like" wording.

Tropical year discussion
Ross, the proponent is a banned editor and any contribution by such people in any context, is always reverted. See wp:DENY. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 08:55, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I was just coming to comment on this. By definition, a banned editor doing anything at Wikipedia in violation of their ban is not acting in Good Faith.  If they were acting in good faith, they would honor the terms of their ban.  If you want to know more about this particular user, there is LOTS of documentation on them.  See WP:LTA/VXFC for a synopsis.  -- Jayron 32 13:44, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

Unrevert TLS?
So are you going to split it up again? Or just leave it as the mess that it is?

I had raised the matter some time ago, if you bothered to look at the talk, with no objections. Then made obvious changes.

You did not even disagree with the changes. Just thought that somebody else might object!

It is patently obvious that the article needs to be split up. If you wanted to do it differently then that would be a fine topic for talk, and I would probably not disagree. But you did not do that.

Anyway, you have won. I am not going to split them up again, why should I? And you won't do it either. So it can remain a mess.

Actually you have won twice, because I don't contribute much to Wikipedia these days, and will contribute even less in future. I was going to add some extra detail about TLS 1.3, but now I can't be bothered given the large numbers of self righteous reverters around.

Over time, Wikipedia is becoming stagnant because reverters do not respect the work of others. It is so much easier to destroy than create. Tuntable (talk) 23:41, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

The perfect is the enemy of the good. Certainly things could be done better. As it is, nothing will be done. A better summary section would be a fine addition, but the split was a pretty good first step.

As to your concern about the security section, that would have been good to raise in the talk. I would have responded that maybe a detailed description of each breach should have been move out and some simple solutions reached.

But when you just revert you spit in the face of the other editors. Most go away quietly, if it is important they fight, but mainly the just stop contributing. It took some effort to split the page, and no, I am not going to do it again.

So you have won. Nothing will change. The perfect has let the bad triumph over the good. Tuntable (talk) 02:13, 3 August 2019 (UTC)
