You are world famous!
A quote from Foreign Policy magazine from China and Japan's Wikipedia War: ''Some editors supported changing the article's name to "Pinnacle Islands" -- the English-language name for the island chain used in the 19th century -- to mitigate concerns about article bias. This attempt at a compromise was quickly shot down, even as the talk page rhetoric heated up. "These pro-Japanese editors just a bunch of bully boys and hooligans!" an editor named STSC vented.'' (The wikilink to the talk page discussion where you made the comment was included in the article at the exact same way here, as a hyperlink.) This is amazing! :) Anir1uph &#124; talk &#124; contrib 22:25, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Organized labour project
Thank you for earlier joining the Organized Labour project. I've been a participant in the project since 2006 and am helping with a revival of it. As part this we are introducing a new membership system, which will help with communications among participants. This involves creating a membership file for each participant within your user space (you can see an example of my membership card here: User:Goldsztajn/WikiProjectCards/WikiProject Organized Labour). This system is already in operation within a number of wikiprojects (such as Women in Red and Medicine). You will not have to do anything, myself or someone else from the project will create the relevant file within your userspace. However, I am conscious that it is not polite to change an editor's userspace without notice. If I don't hear from you in the negative, I will go ahead with making the change after the 18th of January. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Many thanks for supporting the project, in solidarity, --Goldsztajn (talk) 13:20, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Talk Page Consensus
Hey Just wanted to follow up on your discussions on the talk page related to Rising Sun Flag, in which you discuss whether to delete some content from the lede. After the discussion was archived, user XiAdonis has deleted the section, claiming that as you had not responded to his last counterargument, there was a consensus in favor of deletion. On my interpretation of the comments, I don't think that there was any consensus? Could you let me know of what you intended when you last posted on that page and, if I'm right, what to do with the user's repeated deletions? Thanks NettingFish15019 (talk) 15:10, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Apple Daily front page
Notwithstanding what is stated in WP:NONFREE, which is but a guideline, I invite you to take a look at other newspaper articles. You will find very few exceptions (if any at all) to the practice of having the image pf a front page. On that basis, I shall be reverting your edit once again. I don't expect to be reverted again unless you can demonstrate that my assertion is manifestly incorrect. Regards, --  Ohc  revolution of our times 22:46, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout
Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout, " Very short sections and subsections clutter an article with headings and inhibit the flow of the prose. Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading." Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 20:33, 9 February 2022 (UTC)


 * You don't use """ instead of == for the headings. STSC (talk) 20:43, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Do you understand what I wrote? It appears you don't. Short paragraphs and single sentences generally do not warrant their own subheading Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 20:47, 9 February 2022 (UTC)


 * You should not use bold text, otherwise you're making it a sub-heading. STSC (talk) 20:53, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
