I do not own that article neither am I connected with that article. I removed the information because it was established earlier that information about the records shall be stated in that section for which it is meant for.

2022 Russian Invasion Infobox
FYI, I think you did a good job with your list, as they had to reference it in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine/Archive_7#RfC:_Should_the_individual_arms_supplying_countries_be_added_to_the_infobox? their response], and had to at least be forced to admit no consensus:

Editors pointed to a number of other articles about wars that included

The only real point refernced in the conclusion was that "the box might be too long," which makes me think that if we started by just proposing "recon+intelligence" support--or some other, similar smaller category of support--that this objection would be pushed to the side and be able to win an RfC. Then with that established, later, this RfC could be brought up again to include the arms suppliers in the infobox as I think people would be used to it by then.

Also, FWIW, I kind of get the impression that the real, unsaid reason that people didn't want to list arms suppliers as the belligerents was because there's still a lot of people emotionally invested in portraying it as "Russia/Belarus/etc. v. Ukraine by themselves." That's to be expected, there's a lot of emotion being tied up with all of this at the moment. Fephisto (talk) 04:05, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 30
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited GM 6T40 transmission, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Aveo. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

ethnicelebs.com as a reference
Hi SouthernResidentOrca. I noticed that you used ethnicelebs.com as a reference for biographical information in D'Arcy Carden. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. I've gone ahead and removed it. User:XLinkBot removes it automatically, but it doesn't catch all cases. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal (talk) 15:59, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok thanks for letting me know. SouthernResidentOrca (talk) 18:39, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I glanced at the references used by the ethnicelebs article. Most cannot be used per RSP, though it may be worthwhile to look through them for usable primary sources. --Hipal (talk) 20:58, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
