List of cultural references to the September 11 attacks
Thanks for fixing this. I reached out to Ckessler (talk) on my talk page but got no response. I would have fixed it myself but for the 3 revert rule. Cheers! Samf4u (talk) 21:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Why you change the Tharuhat details?
Tharuhat is just concept of Tharu community who just want there autonomous statehood to exercise there cultural and political rights.This is only idea of that particular community Shishirjaisi (talk) 15:20, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Sonia Chang-Diaz
As a new user with a COI, my edits to Sonia Chang-Diaz's pages were reversed, thank you for your help in understanding how to correct this. A couple questions.

First, her pages have not been updated since 2009 and she was an active state senator until 2022 and a candidate for governor, so substantial updates are in order. If I just use the visual editor in my talk sandbox to make the suggested edits, is it possible to get them reviewed from there?

Secondly, I do have a COI in that I'm a constituent and friend who has followed her career since 2009. If I use the visual editor in the sandbox, where do I post my COI information.

Thirdly, can I get a copy of my edits so far put in my sandbox.

Thanks for your help,

Simcha Jacobovici
Hi @Skywatcher68,

I am helping Naustin522 edit Simcha's page. I used to edit it when I was employed by Associated Producers. Now I'm doing it as a favour for her. I have uploaded my draft to User:APJohnM/sandbox/Simcha Jacobovici. I hope that is the right place. I tried to follow the instructions you sent her.

My edits include a lot of missing citations. I also added a new section "Charitable work" as well as a few new paragraphs. These also include citations.

I don't believe anything is controversial and I believe that everything I've added is under Wikipedia guidelines. Please let me know if you'd like me to change, fix or delete anything.

Thank you, APJohnM (talk) 01:49, 3 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for reaching out. The proper place for this is at Talk:Simcha Jacobovici, under Template:edit COI; guidelines to use the template are on the linked page. This template places a link to the Talk page at the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard so any interested parties can stop by the Talk page and provide feedback.  –Skywatcher68 (talk) 13:40, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Do I have to have every edit I make approved? Even if I'm just adding citations that are missing?  Thank you.

 * Something that minor should be okay to add without going through edit COI on the talk page.  –Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:02, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Depends on the nature of the source, though.   –Skywatcher68 (talk) Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:08, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Just a question
Hi there,

You reverted my edit on Space Jam because I thought it was vandalism. However, I added 17 bytes to the page and you removed 15 bytes on the page. How does that work?  My real namm  (💬talk · ✏️contribs) at 19:38, 9 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi there!
 * Those are the 15 bytes which were originally added in this edit; my revert rolled back past that vandalism. Happy editing!  –Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:44, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Falsely accusing me of a old enemy
Dude, I don't know what happened between you and this user you have dealt with before, but it's very concerning you're suddenly projecting me as the user who was blocked, all because of some edits I was adding and fixing. Like come on man, it's very unhealthy and even a bit weird too. Jayaltwriter2004! (talk) 18:57, 25 May 2024 (UTC)


 * My apologies, then. It's just that several editors have been trying to add protagonist/antagonist stuff at List of Pirates of the Caribbean characters and related pages such as Elizabeth Swann, Jack Sparrow, Davy Jones, etc. You came in shortly after Jacedorion was indefinitely blocked for such disruptive edits and headed almost directly for Hector Barbossa, initially doing the same sort of thing there.  –Skywatcher68 (talk) 20:25, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Well, at least you understand. While I admit it's a bit dumb that we can't add protagonist/antagonist stuff, I can still learn to respect the rules (even if I don't really understand nor like it much) and follow it. Jayaltwriter2004! (talk) 20:33, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
 * It's simple, really: a good story should leave the viewers able to figure out for themselves regarding who is a protagonist or an antagonist. The consensus around Wikipedia is that we shouldn't be identifying protagonists, antagonists, tritagonists, deuteragonists, duumvirates, etc. for them. Yeah, some editors have tried to go down into that minutiae; best to not go down that road at all.  –Skywatcher68 (talk) 05:11, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
