Have a beer

 * Thanks. Despite the drama I often get embroiled in, I prefer to reduce drama whenever possible, and uninvolved closes of threads like those can help. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:08, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

 * It's disheartening to watch a time wasting mire form in real time. Hopefully this will all wrap up soon, but I think there's about as much chance of that as me catching a trout before I have to pack up and leave this pond. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:26, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Pick a forum, not all of them. I mean is it an issue? Maybe, although I personally don't see it. But because an answer doesn't come quickly enough doesn't mean you'll get it somewhere else. Star   Mississippi  18:04, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Maybe I should start a thread on the Jeep desk asking where the best place to address it is? At this point, another discussion can only help, right? ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:30, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
 * MfD. Manuals for Distraction, or some such. I don't get the point of DRV. It's not going to be deleted. At best it's a no consensus which will mean it's kept. We all need to go play outside. Star   Mississippi  19:39, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I got a couple hours of playing outside done today, no luck again on the trout though. Then I assembled the headboard for the bed I'm building. Getting very close to completion. Not once did a NPOV signpost editorial show up and harass me. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:11, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Request
Hello ,i have added one edit request with sourcing, in the page "Ezhava" can you check it. Bilgiljilll (talk) 18:26, 29 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I am not familiar enough with the topic or the sources to put my name to that edit, so I've left it for someone else to take care of. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:32, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

Birthday page
The source is already there, after the "faithful." I report the initial part of the text: "In Judaism, the perspective on birthday celebrations is disputed by various rabbis, although today it is accepted practice by most of the faithful.[30]" I made this change a long time ago, and in fact it has remained so for years, but I would like to refine it as in the Italian language page. Without making it too long, based also on the source, I would like to make the following change: "In Judaism, rabbis are divided about celebrating this custom, although it was accepted by the majority of the faithful." If you are ok with it, if not, it's ok, and a warm greeting. As you noted we are far from a potential vandalism, indeed, in the Jewish religion the perception of birthdays is exactly so: the link says so, not yours truly. A cordial greeting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 19:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

Gregor Sharp
Hi ScottishFinnishRadish!

I'm working on a page for Climate Activist Gregor Sharp, I'm pretty new so I wanted to see on how I could improve on the article!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Duelapeep/sandbox

I would really love any and all help you could give me, especially since Gregor seems like a really interesting person! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Duelapeep (talk • contribs) 14:34, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

IH is back after a one year hiatus! New longform about aliens and shit: 👽 "That Zone Between Area 50 and 52" 👽 El_C 16:38, 1 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I was trying to dig up an archive of old usenet posts from a guy who said he was part of the Montauk Project. That's some worthwhile alien internetting. It was a novella's worth of stories about how he was a top secret superman soldier who had a ton of sex with hot women and met interdimensional aliens. 100% true. I think it was this guy, but it got turned into a book. Actually, archive.org comes through in a pinch. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:51, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I recently watched one of his recent trash action movies on Netflix and assumed something was wrong. I'm gonna pour one out for him. :(
 * You can console yourself knowing that had an account for 15 and a half years without editing, and decided that bitching about Will Smith was worth breaking their streak. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:39, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Or that made an account and searched for three days to find the perfect vandalism to commit, and settled on an edit request for ur mom. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:44, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Several drinks (and one massive hangover) later... All those "movies" he "starred" in now feel like elder abuse. Which is no laughing matter — except of course when involving James Randal. That reminds me: NoPixel newcomer, Ray Raymond tries rescuing James Randal, gets arrested for elder abuse ("murderers don't get lawyers!") Sounds about right. El_C 12:32, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I think it's more likely he was trying to cash out as much as possible before he couldn't anymore. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:35, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * That might speak to that, actually. Why would someone who has something to the order of $300 mil need a few more (not many)? And at the cost of his legacy and, possibly, his health? Doesn't add up. Well, at least, mercifully, there wasn't an NFT (I don't think). El_C 13:39, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The same reason Nic Cage had to do a bunch of trash movies, poor money management? Maybe he just enjoyed acting, and that was all he could get? I assume his family and management would have prevented actual abuse, I hope. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:43, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, that may well be true. Who really knows. Also, I thought Cage  was just nuts, but indeed, By 2022, Cage confirmed that he had finally paid off his debts and intended to be more selective with his film roles moving forward. El_C 14:17, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I expect that more details will come out in time, but the situation is very sad, regardless. I'm just hoping it's the least sad. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:20, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * No doubt, very sad. Hopefully, it won't be too much of a spectacle (what, one can hops). I think his last good film was Looper (2012), a full decade ago. Ouch. El_C 14:29, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * When did Glass come out? He was still ok in that.
 * In other bad news I now have to clean a winters worth of dog shit off my yard :( ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:36, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I haven't seen Glass (2019 film) — recommend? To repeat: don't shoot the dog! El_C 14:48, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Watch split first, if you haven't seen it. It wasn't great, but it was decent enough. Split was great. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:04, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh no, I don't like that premise. El_C 15:17, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

 * I guess I'm jaded from watching too many horror movies with my wife. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:19, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It's more the context now of it being acted by him. I'm enjoying From, btw (Jack Bender directs the first 4 eps). El_C 17:28, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Willis doesn't do the kidnapping, if that's what you mean. I think I might be missing some context. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:43, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh I_C: uncredited cameo. No, I meant lead (or close) roles, like in Looper (again, 2012). El_C 17:51, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * He's a lead again in glass. The three movies, unbreakable, split and glass are a trilogy. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:15, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

Monkey D. Luffy
Hello! Can you reverted back again the page protection of Monkey D. Luffy? Those IP users keep on changing and editing anything. About the Devil Fruit Gum Gum Fruit changing into Human Human Fruit, it is better to not change it since it is a heavy spoiler and it only revealed after 1000 + chapters of the manga. That's why i put it as a note so it will not be seen directly for those who were not catch up in the manga and only just reading the page. I hope you understand my request.

A couple of questions
Hi there. I left you a couple of questions on the Biography of living person page under Our Lady of Medjugorje. I pinged you but you probably have not been able to see it. Here it is [] What do you think? Any questions? Thank you again for your help! Red Rose 13 (talk) 16:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)


 * , I'll have to review the article and sourcing in depth to really form an opinion on the BLP implications. I think I saw the ping and forgot to go back to it, I was a bit tied up giving the business, and writing Rosetta Lawson.
 * In general, anything that applies to a BLP that is sourced to a blog or self published source should be removed. That includes claims made by the BLP themself, with the exception of basic biographical details, or to summarize what they say with attribution. Even summarizing their own positions should be done sparingly, as it's easy to fall foul of WP:UNDUE.
 * I'm not going to have time to do any serious editing aside from, of course, giving El C the business and declining edit requests for the next several days I'll try to take a look at it Thursday or Friday. If there is anything that you think falls foul of WP:BLP, I suggest you remove it and immediately start a discussion on the talk page explaining your reasoning. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:09, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Well, I skimmed the article and the whole thing is a shit show that is three or four times longer than it needs to be. I can even begin to start checking BLP claims and reliability until I have several hours and a half gallon of coffee. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:42, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I did already remove both statements that I mentioned but another editor reverted it. I began a discussion about both of the statements on the talk page. I agree there is so much that needs to be removed but there are sections that are in good shape too. I have looked at almost every source so I will be able to answer questions. There are primary sources used for contentious statements about living people. Some of the sources are in Croatian but I have researched using google translate. Thank you so much! I look forward to what you find but be prepared for resistance.Red Rose 13 (talk) 19:12, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Don't get your hopes too high. There's a fair chance that after looking for a while I decide that is not worth my limited time. I can't guarantee I'll be any help. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 19:24, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok with limited time, perhaps we just need to deal with the two problems I presented to you?Red Rose 13 (talk) 20:09, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Checking in with you. I am just one of two main editors on this page at the moment. When I started editing on this page, it was an incredible mess with much more on the page than is now. Would you be willing to just deal with the two issues I brought up? They are here [] in archives now. Thank you for your help.Red Rose 13 (talk) 21:59, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I have to be honest, I don't have the motivation or interest to dig through all the sources and work on that article. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:53, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Ok I understand but I am not asking you to dig through all the sources nor am I asking you to work on the article. I am just asking your opinion of the two sources I wrote about and what your thoughts are regarding them with living people. The blog is one of them. Red Rose 13 (talk) 02:01, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't see a problem with the first issue you raised. It is a quote attributed to a notable person about what they believe, and doesn't appear to raise any BLP concerns. I also don't see a BLP problem with the second issue you raised. The source goes on to say that the Pope didn't want to give them an audience. I don't see anything that's worth invoking BLP over. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:07, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! :) Just an fyi in the article Mirjana one of the seers detailed in her book how she met with the pope in his private residence. This statement by the Cardinal was placed right after that but he was confused if it was Mirjana or Vicka. First it is the opposite of what the seer experienced and secondly he didn't actually know if it was Mirjana or not. Thirdly it is basically saying that she is lying. You can see it here [] and then scroll down to "According to Daniel Klimek, Mirjana Dragicevic,..." Red Rose 13 (talk) 04:00, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Birthday edit, Judaism section
Hi. Can you edit for me? No need for me to do it, no paranoia, forget vandalism: I am anything but. On the Judaism section I suggest the following modification: "In Judaism the rabbis are divided about celebrating this custom, although it was accepted by the majority of the faithful." Again, enough paranoia: this is not vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 12:44, 8 April 2022 (UTC)


 * The sourcing on that first paragraph is entirely unreliable, so I just removed the prose altogether. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:50, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Okay you'll have your reasons, but right now Judaism is the only religion missing from the page. You need to at least replace it with a new paragraph, of course, that has reliable sources don't you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 12:55, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

I can suggest you to be "inspired" by the page in Italian language. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 12:57, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

The last one is the best, I think. It explains Jewish thinking about birthdays. And it explains it well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 14:06, 8 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Reliable sources/Noticeboard ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:36, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, sorry to bother you again. But I remind you again that Judaism is missing from the page; it is the only religion that is missing. You were probably right to delete the previous prose, but you should look for other sources to replace the old prose with a new one. You might find a lot, I should warn you that although I am not of the Jewish faith, I have been in the midst of Judaism for more than ten years and on the birthday there is no homogeneous view among either the rabbis or the faithful. If there is anything I can do, I am here, but I doubt it; you control the page and it is right to do so, but I repeat, do not leave the section on Judaism empty for long, if you wish, more than anything else to make the page more complete. Best regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 13:47, 12 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I don't control the page, and I believe you're probably auto-confirmed now, and can likely edit the article yourself. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:49, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

I edited. I had to make extra attempts because I lost some familiarity with Wiki :-). Do you recommend to leave the source? (Number 18, to be clear) Let me know, thank you very much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 17:59, 12 April 2022 (UTC)


 * It's probably fine as is. In the future you can use the preview function to make sure the edit is good, or test it in your sandbox, if you're worried about having to make a few attempts. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:16, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi. I think this is the last time I will bother you. I have "refreshed" all the paragraphs of the religions, with the naturally safe and reliable sources having been tried and tested for a long time, but I have a worry: under "magic" with regard to Jehovah's Witnesses I cannot make the clickable term referable to the entry "supernatural magic" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_). If it's not too much trouble, could you please take care of it? Yes, it's a help I'm asking you: I don't want to try again, better not to insist. It's the very last thing to do, the page is now perfect. The very last detail is this thing I told you, I hope you can do me this favour and then we'll be done. Thank you very much and all the best. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreoto (talk • contribs) 15:36, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Sidenote - I have to speak vaguely for obvious reasons, but good job making the article that started this whole mess more even-handed. I have a bad feeling it's going to get attacked again the minute page-protection gets removed, but it looks good. TheNewMinistry (talk) 20:54, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Have some faith in the process. And in the future, leave personal beliefs at the door and stick to only what high quality sources say. Personal opinions and beliefs don't have any place in talk pages, and even discussions should have to stick to policies. You'll also make much more headway with reasons arguments based on reliable sources. The approach you took only served to escalate. Also be prepared to accept when consensus is against you, even if you're sure you're right. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:05, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Well, that's suboptimal. I'm on mobile now, so fixing it would be a pain. I'll get it in a couple days if no one else gets around to it. Odd that the tool did that. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:10, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * This is all fixed. I CSD'd the now empty archive pages. Thanks for the heads up. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 10:53, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

Book report
So, finished the The Reluctant King, then went on to Terry Brook's (does hard sci fi!) Street Freaks, which was fun, but it was no Word & Void (of which I have 2 of the 3 in Hebrew, missing Angel Fire East). Now half way through The Enchantress: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel (I have 3 of em in Hebrew). I like Michael Scott. El_C 10:47, 7 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I should be finishing up the expanse novels in the next couple weeks, so maybe I'll take a look at The Reluctant King. I always find it difficult to pick the next series of book to read or listen to, even though the only time I was so disappointed I stopped was the audio version of Woken Furies, which was so bad the narrator pronounced the main character's name wrong, after people mispronouncing his name had been mentioned in the other books. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 10:53, 7 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I think the only audio books I ever done did were books 2 and 3 of the The Black Company series (Shadows Linger and The White Rose). I have book 1, The Black Company (novel), in Hebrew and I wanted to know what happened next. But all I could find on short notice were the audio books. Good narration, though, as I recall. I like Glen Cook. El_C 11:03, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The Black Company novels are on my list, but they're a bit short, and I like to get the most bang for my buck when it comes to audiobooks. I have a pretty long commute, so I listen to copious amounts of audiobooks. It really passes the time. I also have less free time to actually read, with all the animals, gardens, bed building and such, so it scratches the reading itch I have. A good narrator really makes the audiobook, though. A good book with bad narration is pretty much as bad as a bad book. The Kingkiller Chronicle has an amazing narrator, and the book is good too, so it actually makes sitting in traffic pretty decent. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:10, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * If you do the first subseries of The Black Company, that's +900 pages. You can just cue em, they're all by the same narrator (older guy, he's good). El_C 11:19, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I get one book a month included with audible, and I try to avoid buying additional books, which is why I look at length as part of my decision making process. I wonder if they have any omnibus editions of The Black Company on audible. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:36, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I have one of The Kingkiller Chronicle in Hebrew, but I can't remember which one. I'm sure it'll come to me. El_C 11:29, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Maybe the mispronunciation was a m3ta joke (of annoyance)? El_C 11:09, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * They had a new narrator for the third book, so I think he just didn't know. There was also some licensing issue with Scott Brick's narration of the third book of The Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, so Audible had a differently narrated version. The guy did an okay job, but Scott Brick is a master, and the differences in the characters' voices and accents really through me off. Also, the replacement narrator said CAHHHHHHvenent, which I found annoying. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:35, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I could see how subpar voice acting can ruin a good book. You are rolling the dice there. El_C 11:38, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
 * One of the main characters was a woman, so when he did her voice it sounded like a man making a joke of Clarice Starling's voice in The Silence of the Lambs (film). Luckily, Brick was back for the last book. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:41, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Need a book, or series
, I looked at The Black Company, and they're too short for me to get for my commute, and The Reluctant King is somehow not available on audible. Any other suggestions? I'm going to finish Leviathan Falls in the next couple days, so I'll need to decide on a new book or series to start. Picking something new is always difficult for no reason. Other TPWs are welcome to opine as well. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:22, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Have you read Spin? El_C 20:57, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I have not, that'll probably be it, then. 17+ hours, so a bit shorter than I normally look for, but good enough. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Also, narrated by Scott Brick, best known for me mentioning him in the above conversation! ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Nice, you get the Brick Man! Yeah, only like 350 pages, but it's a trilogy. Won the 2006 Hugo Award. And the 2006 Geffen Award (best sci fi translation in Israel). And the 2006 Kurd Laßwitz Award (ditto Jermany). And the 2006 Seiun Award (ditto Gapan). El_C 21:16, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It looks pretty good based on the single paragraph I read about it on audible. I think the last sci-fi apocalypse book I read was Seveneves. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:41, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * No spoilers from me, but I never read book 2 (Axis) or 3 (Vortex), so I don't really know how the story ends. I should really change that. El_C 12:08, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I imagine it'll take me a touch over two weeks to listen to the first book, and if it's as good as you, and the reviews, say, then I'm sure I'll move on to the others.
 * In bed news, I have to get home early tomorrow to deal with an electrical inspection on my solar system, so I think tomorrow will be bed assembly day! ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:15, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * And all it took was 40 years, Bill Maher-style! I've ordered Axis btw, so I'll have it swoon. El_C 20:48, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It sure feels like it took that long. Started in November, and I have in upwards of 100 hours into it at this point. A few hours a weekend, a full day here and there. Big projects take big time.
 * I should be starting Spin on my Friday commute home, I think. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:52, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Axis is taking a while to get here for some reason, so I'm 0ff to re-read The Jackal of Nar (it's kinda like The Black Company, but also nothing like it). Wecommended. El_C 14:31, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Ever read The Book of the New Sun? ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:34, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * No, looks intriguing. El_C 14:38, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It was simultaneously better and worse than I was expecting. It's ultra-super-post-apocalyptic, and the narrator is wildly unreliable, so you never know if what you're reading is true. It's not for everyone, but I mention it because the person who first recommended The Black Company to me also recommended it. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:41, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Speaking of black suns, I recently re-read Black Sun Rising. It's good, but it gets pretty dark (it starts pretty dark). El_C 14:49, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Having read a lot of Stephen R. Donaldson, I don't think even really dark books measure on my dark-o-meter. The Real Story is dark, and the whole series only gets darker as The Gap Cycle progresses. Also, read The Gap Cycle books. Hands down my favorite of all time. #1 best quote of the series - I couldn't believe that if I used both hands. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:56, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Have you read The Way of Kings? I didn't get to finish it before I had to return the book to my friend but I found it really enjoyable. — Ixtal &#8258; (talk) 14:54, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * All caught up on that series. Going to wait till the series is complete before going back to it. They're good, but Kaladin is a bit too Mary-Sue for my taste. Sure, he's got a depression problem, but eh.. That's a pretty minimal complaint, though, considering I've read all the books in the series. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:58, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Fair enough! That's the only book I've read that kind of fits the theme of the books above. I'm more of the non-fiction and magic realism reader. Hope you find a good read :) — Ixtal &#8258; (talk) 15:19, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Now-a-days I do most of my reading as listening while I endure my long commute to and from work, so generally that takes non-fiction right out. I get enough non-fiction reading documentation for my job. Does Mayfair Witches count as magical realism? How about The Dresden Files? "Magical realism" and "contemporary fantasy" seem like they should be the same thing. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:25, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I fuckin' love Brandon Sanderson! El_C 15:33, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I haven't read those, I meant more like the Jorge Luis Borges and Gabriel Garcia Marquez type books (Slaughterhouse Five feels like an English equivalent), but it is different from fantasy imo (I imagine my latin american upbringing has something to do with my understanding of the genre). If you want a really really short read that's fantastic from these authors, The Secret Miracle (link to pdf) is just five pages and my favorite short story ever. If you haven't read it The House of the Spirits would be a nice listen I'd imagine. — Ixtal &#8258; (talk) 15:40, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

Got Axis! El_C 20:55, 28 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Nice, I'll probably be starting that next week sometime. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:19, 28 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh no! I just looked at Axisand Vortexand each is only half the length of Spin! I'm going to have to buy audible credits :(
 * Also, have you read The Salvation Sequence by Peter F. Hamilton? As the series progresses there's some interesting timey stuff. The scale of the story also opens up dramatically in each successive book. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:55, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Wrt removal of image
Dear editor You removed the image [], shouldn't the same be removed on Rajput and Rajputisation wrt Raj-Era. The issue in the latter is also wrt WP:V as well of the image, whether it really belonged to the group or not. RS6784 (talk) 07:12, 29 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I don't disagree, but before I start removing images all over the place I'd like to get a broader consensus. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 09:04, 29 April 2022 (UTC)


 * thanks It would be really helpful if you may put your opinion on this topic here []. I have pinged you there on the same, again I repeat I am not WP: Canvassing here, I just want a discussion on the topic since this creates a friction point on many pages. Once again thanks!

WWE legends article
Hey I have a question do you edit all WWE legends articles such as Triple h, Undertaker And John Cena Big fan of your work 41.116.31.217 (talk) 16:01, 29 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I don't edit wrestling articles. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:03, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for replying so quick but you do protect wrestling articles right? 41.116.31.217 (talk) 16:07, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not an administrator, so I don't do any protection. I believe any edits I've made to wrestling articles have been a result of my edit request patrolling. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:10, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
