Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia

 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style
 * Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Hello, I'm FDW777. Your recent edit(s) to the page First Minister and deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been reverted for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. FDW777 (talk) 17:39, 6 August 2021 (UTC)


 * The First Minister does not get a suffix. Previous people who have held the position, in particular Arlene Foster and Peter Robinson, have the suffix The Right Honourable not as a result of being First Minister but due to their separate appointment to the Privy Council.

Honorifics
Hi, Spf121188.

I've always believed that Wikipedia should provide as much information as posible (with a comfortable and organized display, of course). As so, I think honorifics are something that also helps a lot to understand the context of the life of a person, and you're right: adding them to Wikipedia is not promotion or a point-of-view: it's simply history. Nevertheless, some people today think that they're allowed to censure and change history based on their feelings or opinions. I added the honorifics of Augusto Pinochet and Salvador Allende (two antagonists in Chilean history) and I defended the use of them in Pinochet's article. I would do the same to defend Allende's honorifics because their right to use them does not rely on our thoughts about them, but on history and law. Anyways, there are some rules about the style Wikipedia should have, and many editors use them as arguments to retire honorifics (I say this with respect and not trying to presume bad faith), so remember there are some general rules that can be applied in the case of honorifics and maybe their retire can be justified. I don't know the arguments used to remove Mussolini's honorifics, but of course that if those are based on opinions, honorifics should be re-installed.

Reliable entertainment sources.
Is Screen Rant considered a reliable source? Because one article there says that Sony and Marvel may be working on a “secret” fourth Spider-Man film despite no official announcement. I just want to know if I ever try putting something like that on there I just would like to know. I don’t know any administrator to ask so don’t be mad at me for asking please? 0Detail-Attention215 (talk) 06:44, 11 December 2021 (UTC)


 * , No need to apologize, I appreciate you reaching out before making changes to be sure, that’s what helps make better editors! Screen Rant typically isn’t a reliable source for this sort of information, but more importantly, WP doesn’t include information in articles without official announcements, and rumors/secrets are never reliable. You’ll want to wait for an official announcement from a reputable, reliable source before including information in any article. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Draft:2017 Shepherd Rams football team
Hello, Spf121188,

There is a CSD tag on this draft saying that you wish it to be deleted. If this is not your wish, please come to my talk page and let me know and I'll restore the page. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 22:00, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello ! Thank you for the message. I was actually unaware that I was able to publish pages without going through the AfC process, so that's why I requested the draft page to be deleted. It looks like the page was reviewed already and all is good. Thank you again! Spf121188 (talk) 22:02, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Shepherd Rams football articles
Spf121188, thanks for your efforts on those Shepherd Rams football articles. If you could adopt a few formatting practices, that would be very helpful.


 * 1) Use Template:Cfb link when referring to opponents; this template makes sure that wikilinks point to most relevant article available, whether than be a specific team season article, a program overview article, or something more general.
 * 2) Punctuate scores and won–loss records with en dashes, not hyphens; see WP:DASH.
 * 3) Employ the source column in schedule tables so that numerical data like rankings, scores, and attendance in particular doesn't get cluttered with reference notations, which can reduce ease of reading.

Check out my edits at 2013 Shepherd Rams football team for examples of all these points. Let me know if you have questions about this stuff. Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk) 17:42, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , thank you for the message! I'll work to employ all of these points as I continue to work on Shepherd articles. I appreciate your help! Spf121188 (talk) 17:55, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , I'm sorry to bother you, but can you check out the page I just published, 2005 Shepherd Rams football team to make sure I followed the above guidelines? I only used the CFB links in the schedule, but if they need to be throughout the article, I can fix that. I'm going through the rest of the years teams for Shepherd, and I'll get everything in line with the above. Thanks again for your help! Spf121188 (talk) 19:36, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Newspapers.com?
Have you considered applying for a subscription to Newspapers through the Wikipedia Library? Since you do a lot of work in biographical articles and nominate a decent amount of things for deletion that wound up being kept, having a Newspapers.com subscription could benefit you on you BEFOREs. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 19:19, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , I haven't looked into it before, but I would certainly be open to it. The Before search I did on Marcus Houston from Google just didn't really net much, and another user posted a PROD on his page, so I took perhaps too bold of a step by nominating it, but I wanted others opinions first. Is there a particular way to subscribe through the library? I'm sure it would be helpful as you mention. Thanks! Spf121188 (talk) 19:25, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * If something's PROD'd and you generally agree with the rationale, it's fine to leave the PROD up. If someone DEPRODs it, then you're certainly welcome to nominate it for deletion. As far as applying for access, just follow the link above to create a Library account, and find Newspapers in the database list. You should fill out a short application, if eligible, for access. It would be helpful to state that you are looking for print sources to improve sports biographies. Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 19:52, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
 * , wanted to send a quick thank you for pointing me in the right direction with Newspapers.com. My application hasn't been reviewed yet, but if I don't get access, I may just pay for it given that it's not super expensive. I'm confident that with that at my disposal, I won't jump the gun on AfD's... which I feel just slightly foolish about. SPF121188  talk to me contribs 17:08, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
 * It can take some time, but it may save you the money! Etzedek24 (I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record) 18:19, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Deprodding of Jeff Atkins (American football)
I have removed the tag from Jeff Atkins (American football), which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it.

Alabama 2006 season
Hello. Noticed this revert. Thank you for restoring, but I still have some uncertainty. I brought this issue up at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football and got no response. --DB1729 (talk) 18:19, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello ! Thank you for letting me know. I noticed the IP address that kept reverting was trying to use WP as a source for their version, which is the main reason I reverted back to your version, and left them a talk page message. I'm a little surprised you haven't gotten a response on that, but since you had a reliable source for Alabama's record that year, I figured it should stand for now until a possible consensus can be reached to change it. I'll keep an eye out for any responses. Thanks again for the message, cheers! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 18:29, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * That's fine. We'll see what happens. If it gets reverted again maybe I will try starting another discussion. Not sure where would be better though. Talk:Alabama Crimson Tide football looks even less active. --DB1729 (talk) 18:39, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

Rollback
Hi Spf121188. After reviewing your request, I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ASpf121188 enabled] rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! F ASTILY  01:51, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
 * Use common sense.
 * Thank you ! I will do my best with this tool, and if I have any questions at all, I'll certainly reach out on your talk page! Thank you again! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 13:20, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Re: Vandalism on Soborno Isaac
Hello Mr. Forrest. I saw that you recently reverted a change on the Soborno Isaac Bari page for vandalism. Not only do I agree with your change, but furthermore, the editor Praxidicae has violated Wikipedia's Wikipedia's 3RR Rule, by reverting edits on one page at least three times in a 24-hour time period. Furthermore, that editor has repeatedly nominated the page for deletion, claiming that the subject of the page is not a "7 year old Professor", even though the page does not mention that. And even though the subject of the article is the Honorary Mayor of Little Bangladesh, Los Angeles, this editor took the liberty of going to the Little Bangladesh page and remove not only the subject's name, but also his citation, whilst citing "lol no". Finally, he wrote that the subject of the article is a "joke and hoax," which is derogatory language unfit for Wikipedia. I would appreciate it if you could Google the subject and take appropriate action. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnonMan64 (talk • contribs) 18:58, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello . I see that you already reported this to the Administrators noticeboard, so you'll want to let the process play out there. As I'm not an administrator, there's really nothing more I have the ability to do. If you have any other questions or any way I might be able to help you out, let me know and I'll do what I can. Thanks for the inquiry and have a great day! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 19:14, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the response. I believe this page is worthy of publication, as the sources are well-vetted. However, it suffers from vandalism from external individuals. For instance, multiple individuals have written sentences without grammar on the page, and one editor noted that "this is not facebook." I was wondering whether you support the publication of this page. AnonMan64 (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

The UAA of double sowing
I think what the rule actually says is not to warn and report at the the same time. Some admins will block despite the user name "being discussed." Depends on who is patrolling UAA, fatigue/burnout levels, phase of the moon-- stuff like that. But no, given the egregiousness of that user name, reporting was not unreasonable. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 23:18, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * , I appreciate the clarification! I wasn't 100% sure, but the username in that situation seemed to be a little more on the disruptive side, so I figured to report it and see where that went, I just didn't expect the next few comments afterward lol but, I try to err on the side of caution. I totally understand all the other variables, including phase of the moon (lol) but either way, thanks for following up! I appreciate your help/guidance!

Dear Spf121188, I removed a quote which has no source. It was the quote of the "AOK" - in the German version, there was a false internet-link.

Hi sorry just getting used to using Wiki. Thank you for your response. I noticed this articled stated the subject had been arrested for sexual assault allegations and I could not find a reliable source beyond tabloids or twitter posts. I replaced a section with the BLP source code in an attempt to rectify. Please advise. GenZXY (talk) 17:19, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * , I took a look at the sources included in the article, and I don't see any BLP violations in it. I'm also not very well versed in what a BLP violation would be, but the sources seem to support the content in the article.

 * Material about living persons added to any Wikipedia page must be written with the greatest care and attention to verifiability, neutrality, and avoidance of original research.
 * Editors must take particular care when adding information about living persons to any Wikipedia page. Such material requires a high degree of sensitivity, and must adhere strictly to all applicable laws in the United States, to this policy, and to Wikipedia's three core content policies:
 * Neutral point of view (NPOV)
 * Verifiability (V)
 * No original research (NOR)
 * We must get the article right. Be very firm about the use of high-quality sources. All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be supported by an inline citation to a reliable, published source. Contentious material about living persons (or, in some cases, recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion.
 * The section on is poorly sourced if you actually read the article. Previous versions of the article do a better job explaining the sensitive nature but appear to be COI. Yhe current post simply states false information. The subject appears to have been called out on social media. I could not locate any sources reference any arrests for sexual assault. I've suggested edits but it seems the other editors are bias. GenZXY (talk) 17:45, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * , I would go to the talk page of the user who responded to your edit request and point this out to them there. Or, submit another edit request, and format it in a way that says something like "Please change X to Y." This way it gives them a black and white change, easier to understand. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 17:52, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

 * That's great to hear. I've reviewed your use of the rollback tool and am granting it to you indefinitely, since your trial is about to end and I cannot find fault with your use of it. One thing I would say, however, is that some material you have reverted should be deleted from page history: there is some information here on how to request it. As for what is generally deletable, I have written a long explanation of each of the criteria. There is also the "standard" list at Revision deletion/examples. Sdrqaz (talk) 13:16, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not sure which part of "no citations" is "unexplained"... ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:43, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
 * , Yes, I noticed this a few minutes after it was removed again. All I saw was that this information was removed and restored, and the IP that initially removed this information was blocked. I admittedly did not look close enough at this and should have, which is 100% my fault. It just looked bad that a brand new account was following a blocked IP in removing the same information. Moving forward, I'll be sure to look much closer at issues like this so I do not make the same mistake, but I'm only human. Thanks for the message, I hope you have a great night!

Dallas Times Herald - Mike Goldman
I’m new here to editing, but you just restored an inaccurate link to Mike Goldman on the Dallas Times Herald page for Mike Goldman. The Australian actor you linked is not the person that was on staff at the Times Herald. I was on staff at the Times Herald with Goldman, we worked in the same department. He is currently editor of Scout Life magazine. Maybe I should have not linked to Scout Life staff web page, which lists Mike. However, Mike has never been an Australian actor. He is a native of Texas. Crumblindown (talk) 15:59, 8 June 2022 (UTC)

I couldn't reply as HelperBot immediately deleted the thread at WP:UAA], but actually I've sided with you a bit more, to be frank. I felt it was easier for us and for them if I were simply to 'soft block' TH and invite them to create a new account, which I hope they'll do. I'm not keen seeing unblocked but abandoned usernames on our editor lists, so it makes sense to soft block. My apologies if I sounded a bit shirty - that's because I often see a UAA report, and then find a discussion template left with that user, too and feel my time was perhaps wasted at that point. Anyway - all sorted now. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 16:26, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

I hadn't noticed that it was you who removed your own speedy deletion nomination. Thanks for doing that.

Built Ford Tough Offensive Line of the Year
Hi Spf121188,

You'll probably see my edit, I just noticed that you removed this award from John Sullivan in January. Did you want me to remove the addition, being that it really shouldn't be there?

Honestly, it doesn't matter to me. I saw that three of the five players that year had that accolade listed. Even Jason Kelce was the only one from a prior year.

I'll gladly remove all that I see.

Sorry for not looking at the past history before the edit.

Thanks, Bringingthewood (talk) 04:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello ! Thanks for the message! If I remember right, the Built Ford Tough Offensive Line of the Year award typically shouldn't be included in a players Infobox, as it's usually reserved for awards that come from the AP, or other nationally recognized individual awards.

Why did my edit get reverted?
It's correct. (I know you weren't the one who the reverted but I feel like I should still ask you.) Tronyboy03 (talk) 18:46, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message, ! I'm not sure why it got reverted, because I think that is correct. It could be because Stein isn't officially credited in the cast for the appearance, but is still attributed on his own article. Usually, if a user reverts an edit, they should leave you a message letting you know why, but in this case your edit was clearly made in good faith, and I'll assume that's what was thinking. I'll let them reply to this so that you can understand what it was, and I'm sure they can give a better answer than I can. Thanks again!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 18:51, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Actually,, I just looked at the article, and under the cast section, Ben Stein is noted in the paragraph below the list of actors, so was just trying to prevent a redundancy. I'm sure you didn't see that initially, so no big deal.  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 18:54, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Mask of Zorro
Regarding the removal of the Lawsuit section of The Mask of Zorro, I did give an edit summary. I said in the summary that the lawsuit isn't relevant to the movie, since it regards the rights to the character of Zorro and not the film, and further that the lawsuit is already covered in the article for Queen of Swords, so its purpose was at best redundant. If this summary was inadequate, apologies. I've added to the Talk page to discuss the section's removal further. 216.243.58.249 (talk) 18:00, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure how a lawsuit regarding the character isn't relevant to the movie, but, the information you removed was cited by a reliable source. A lawsuit covered in two articles isn't redundant in this case, as it makes obvious sense. However, you did make a comment to discuss possibly removing it, so what you'll want to do is wait for responses before blanking an entire section in the article. Let me know if you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 18:04, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Hey Spf121188, I unaccepted a change made to February 18.

SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:46, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi. As stated in the message, its sole intent is to alert you of the stricter sanctions regime surrounding biographies of living persons. The edit that prompted it was this recent revert of yours, which reinstated material that strikes me as concerning if viewed through the lense of the guidance given at Biographies of living persons; BLP concerns can still be valid even if brought forth by someone behaving disruptively. I can't look into the entire affair more closely right now, but I felt that it was important to notify you of the active sanctions. --Blablubbs (talk) 14:53, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

WP:UAA entry
Greetings. You made a request at WP:UAA regarding the account "TomLeeJones". declined the request, noting it could be the person's real name. Tamzin's response is accurate. However, the username policy is a bit equivocal on this point. See WP:REALNAME. It's a judgment call. Some admins will block, some won't. I know you've made a lot of reports to UAA. I don't know if this was the first time you made a realname report to UAA. I just wanted to clarify that it's a judgment call, and sometimes it's appropriate to act right away, and sometimes not. Barring presentation of edits (as Tamzin notes), it can be a difficult call to block right away.

Oh, and that fly on the screen is hilarious :) --Hammersoft (talk) 15:29, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, and thank you for the message! Yeah, I was on the fence about reporting that one or not (as I haven't recently reported any that were in the same REALNAME category,) but decided to go ahead and do it since they had made edits to their sandbox. This feedback is very helpful though, so I do appreciate it! I've always gotten really constructive feedback from as well, which I also appreciate! I really enjoy patrolling recent changes and usernames, so I feel like I'm getting a hang of everything much better. Thank you again for the message and I look forward to seeing you around!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 16:45, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, and also, I do aspire to be an admin someday. I'm far from being ready for that, but it's certainly something I would like to work toward. Any feedback you can give me in the future would be more than helpful! Thanks again! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 16:56, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Looking at, it's not bad but there is likely room for improvement. You should never look at this with an eye towards being an admin and think "Ok, I'll just vote in non-contentious AfDs". That's really bad. Instead, comment on AfDs where you think you have a good opinion/perspective to give, and base it in well considered policy/guideline. This is a great learning tool to increase your familiarity with policies and guidelines related to article creation.
 * I bet this certainly made you feel welcome. :(
 * Looking at your deleted contributions (an admin view), I see a sea of red, with a lot of speedy deletion requests. This is good. I didn't do a spot check to see if your speedy deletion criteria matched up strongly with what the deleting admin felt the various pages should be deleted as, but the sea of red is very encouraging.
 * Your edit filter log shows some activity, but a cursory check didn't find anything problematic.
 * This was good; introspection and self evaluation are important, whether an admin or an editor.
 * There are a subset of RfA watchers who strongly feel that good article creation is an important aspect of being knowledgeable enough to be an admin. This was a weak area for me, though it didn't seem to have an effect on my RfA. Yours is even weaker. I dislike this metric for evaluating potential administrators. There are 6.5 million articles on Wikipedia. It can be hard to find something new to write about. I think you're doing well example. Don't get caught up in worrying about so much being evaluated as "start". The whole article assessment area of Wikipedia is a sad, sad joke. But, do think about areas where there's stuff missing that you might be able to help with. You can look around in WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles and find something that interests you. For me, as I wander the Internet I sometimes find potential topics to write about, and look them up on Wikipedia. 95%+ of the time, there's already articles on the subjects. Sometimes I find redirects to create because of that (journalists come up with all sorts of ways to refer to things that aren't, for lack of a better term, 'canon'). Example of something I just created; Elengubu. Hopefully you can find some actual articles to write.
 * You've shown heavy involvement at WP:UAA, WP:AIV, and speedy deletions. This is good, and plenty by itself. Consider expanding to other areas of potential interest for future admin work. Again, this shouldn't be to make yourself look better, but to perhaps expand your areas of interest for your own edification.
 * Have a careful look at the advice elements of the first line at RfA Navigation.
 * Find some flame retardant clothing and buy lots of it. You'll need it. As Tamzin unfortunately saw, even well intentioned editors (in this case, me, and again , I'm sorry) are not capable of articulating commentary in ways that don't come off as hurtful. It gets considerably worse with editors of less, shall we say, savory ethics. Stay cool, and if you can't...walk away for a while.
 * Find a good nominator. You could look at the history of nominations over the last few years and find the most successful nominators. I wouldn't do that. I'd look at nomination statements of various nominators in various RfAs and see which nominators feel comfortable to you. Then I'd look at this list and see if any match up. All the better if you've interacted with them before.
 * Wait at least another year.
 * Lastly, and I can't emphasize this enough; relax. Being an admin is a demotion. It really is. Editors are at the top of the heap on this project. For proof, see this. You are more constrained as an administrator, and are certainly held to a higher standard. Becoming an administrator should never be viewed as an accolade for work well done, or some sense of "I made it!". It isn't. In fact, in some ways, it's rather the opposite. My best advice in this is don't ask to become an admin until it becomes obvious to you that it is inconvenient or even problematic to not be an administrator. Over time, I was doing enough reports that having the tools would have been nice. What pushed it over the top for me was finding it difficult to act in the face of outright attacks on the project when I was available and could have done something if I was an administrator.
 * If you want any more input, now or in the future, let me know. I'll loop in here as a font of useful knowledge on becoming an administrator. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:37, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * The first thing I looked at was the article Spf121188 had contributed to the most, Rich Bisaccia, and their contributions consist largely of revert, revert, revert. If you ran at RfA today, I'd probably oppose and use that link as a significant reason why, so I don't think you should think about asking for administrator privileges any time soon. As Hammersoft suggests, your main goal should be to improve and maintain the encyclopaedia. If you start getting involved in heavy content creation (a good way to get friends and colleagues) and increase work in maintenance areas, and feel the tools would come in useful, that would be an appropriate time to think about them. This is likely to be several years down the line. As an example, I started serious editing (GAs and NPP/AfC work) in mid-2012, but it wasn't until early 2015 when multiple admins seriously thought I should give RfA a go. One of the reasons many RfAs are now very successful is because the right sort of candidates wait until they're absolutely sure they need the privileges. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  18:47, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * ,, thank you both for providing this feedback! I really do appreciate it and it's more than useful! I will emphasize, I'm certainly in no hurry whatsoever to acquire admin tools. It's definitely a long term goal, and I'm very aware that I would need to improve content creation in diverse areas (not only in one colleges football seasons, especially since I went to school there...) but I still haven't run into a situation where I felt admin tools would have been useful for me (since we have UAA and AIV.) I spend a majority of time now patrolling recent changes and looking out for CSD examples, and that's likely what I'll focus on for a while, as well as being on the lookout for SPI abuses (I've submitted a couple SPI cases, with a mix of good cases and some where I missed a few things.) Either way, thank you both again, If it's alright I'll certainly reach out more if I have any more questions! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 18:54, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Another piece of advice; stop thinking of being an admin as a goal. It's unlikely any great candidate at RfA thinks of being an admin as a "goal". It shouldn't be. --Hammersoft (talk) 19:32, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

Nithiyanandam AFD
Hi, I'm somewhat reaching out since you were also involved in Articles_for_deletion/Krtin_Nithiyanandam and I had been thinking I was a bit too abrupt in my last comment and was going to ask your opinion. But I see the SPI now so it feels a bit moot almost? Anyway, I appreciate your attention to help improve the encyclopedia and welcome any advice/feedback you may feel able and want to give. Skynxnex (talk) 14:10, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello ! Thanks for leaving me a message! I actually don't think you we're too abrupt at all. I think your comment was 100% warranted. Those two accounts were obviously created only to try and get this article deleted. I always try to assume good faith, but there's no other reason for that, and the SPI has confirmed that the two accounts are connected. I was actually thinking about the AfD, and you're right, it's basically moot at this point. I'll probably reach out to an admin for some advice, I don't want to close it procedurally and would rather it be done by an admin :) Thank you again for the message and I'm sure I'll see you around!

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you so much for the kind words, ! I can't tell you how much I appreciate this :) I've seen in several pages/userpages that retention is vital to the long term health of Wikipedia, and as you told me when I first asked about this, student editors are (potentially) our largest source of new, enthusiastic editors. Because of this, I will surely continue to welcome student editors, as well as new editors making constructive edits! You were so helpful to me as I was getting started, and it's a goal of mine to help new editors in any way I can! I greatly appreciate again your kind words, and I'm happy to see you around! You're a great "wiki-friend" (if that's considered a thing of course,) and I can't thank you enough!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 20:16, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi
I noticed you welcome new editors. Is this something anyone can do? I've looked at the templates but I wasn't sure if you needed to be a member of the project? Thanks, Knitsey (talk) 13:51, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello and thanks for the message! Welcoming new users is something that anyone can do as there is no prerequisite, save for a positive attitude and willingness to help! You can join the welcoming committee, and I would also download twinkle, which has a ton of welcoming templates. I typically welcome users who are participating in a class project, OR leave a welcome message for any new users who have already made constructive edits. If you have any other questions for me, please let me know and I'm glad to see you're willing to welcome new users! Editor retention is very important to the long term health of Wikipedia, and it's great to see!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:13, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for all the information, thats really helpful. I've been aware that reverting new editors who might have good intentions can seem a bit like biting the newcomer. I wanted a more welcoming way of doing it.
 * And omg that fly! Knitsey (talk) 15:17, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
 * - I understand what you mean! However, there certainly are instances where warning newcomers is necessary (I'm sure you can decipher the difference between good faith edits and vandalism.) If something looks like a good faith edits, there are some welcoming options that welcome them, and let them know what they may have done wrong. Again, please don't hesitate to reach out to me! I'm more than happy to help! Also, yeaaahhhh I saw a fly on someone else's talk page, and swiped my computer screen at least three times... so yeah I had to put it on my talk page lolz. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:20, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Knitsey (talk) 15:25, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, Spf121188,
 * I just looked at a list of Wikipedia editors who welcome the most editors and you were far and away #1 on that list. I was next on the list (I do a lot of work in Draft space) but you had almost 3 times the number of Welcomes than I made. Thank you for greeting new editors and letting them know about the project! It's appreciated. Liz Read! Talk! 08:54, 19 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the kind words, ! I know that retaining new editors is vital to the long term viability of Wikipedia, so I've made it a priority to welcome new editors who have already edited constructively, as well as student editors. Even if efforts only retain a few new editors, it's worth it :) Thank you again for the message and I look forward to seeing you around!

You know you said to ask you questions when needed?
...I said I would take you up on that. I've read through WP:MOSS and I have a question about articles with mixed information by countries. Example Epidemiology of binge drinking which has information about different continents. An editor has changed some of the spelling to American English. I didn't want to revert as its a mixed page. It's not a big deal as it is mixed but I wondered if this was covered elsewhere. Thank you! Knitsey (talk) 16:34, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello ! No worries at all! I looked at the edit to which you're referring, and the edit itself doesn't look too problematic, but I do understand what you're concerned about. In case like this, I would think the most important thing is to maintain consistency throughout the entire article. That's a good question, too, because an edit such as that (where the editor changed certain spellings to American English,) might be problematic because that edit itself may cause inconsistencies. Take a look at MOS:CONSISTENT to see what I'm referring to, and let me know if I can help further! (I'm no expert on everything by any means, BUT I'll do my best to help :)) SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 16:40, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * That's perfect, thank you. Lots of information I haven't taken in. I've bookmarked it. I knew about the date difference but I hadn't read quite a few sections.
 * Btw it's not that I dislike American English as I think it's usually easier to use and you've got rid of all those extra 'u's. Thanks for the FAVOR. Knitsey (talk) 16:51, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * , Anytime, my wikifriend! Conversely, I actually think American English can be more complicated than other languages to be honest. And don't worry, there is SO MUCH information to take in on this site, and I've even barely scratched the surface.

Editor of the Week
User:Buster7 submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
 * Taking the time to Welcome new editors to WikiPedia is not a common activity for veteran Users but Spf121188 is a "quick-draw" enthusiast at welcoming them and getting them started. Spf121188 has been busy for the past few months paving the way for newbies to become as similarly enthusiastic as he is to increase the circle of WikiPedia editors. Sadly, statistics show that most new editors do not stay despite the welcoming efforts of editors like Spf but who really knows what might happen. The effort to replicate yourself is a worthy goal. Thanks go to him for taking the time.

Help
Hi I'm in the class CMN2160. I'm running into an issue trying to complete my Wikipedia part of the assignment. I posted all my edits and published and everything was fine my content was there. I look 5mins later and everything keeps disappearing, I honestly don't know what to do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sushi9 (talk • contribs) 16:20, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, ! I’m currently on vacation and away from my computer, but I’m going to ping, as he has been more than helpful for me! Sorry I can’t provide assistance at the moment :-( SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 19:01, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

I will also ping. SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 19:02, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Sushi9! I took a look at your recent edits to the Crystal healing article, and the article's edit history. One edit that you made that I noted when looking was this one. Specifically, you added the statement, "Modern physics has revealed that the universe is an energy field that is constantly vibrating. Like the universe, the human body has an energy field that allows energy to flow in and around the body. The various energies each vibrate within their own frequencies. This is known in Ayurvedic medicine as chakras." You then cite a reference to the Literature "Acupuncture and the chakras", which is likely written by someone who believes or practices this ritual. You then add the statement, "The crystal practitioner performing the healing attempts to create an energy field by placing healing stones or crystals on one’s chakra location." This content I cited will definitely be interpreted as having neutral point of view concerns, among other things.


 * First, you make statements about modern physics and say that we've discovered that the human body "has an energy field that allows energy to flow in and around" itself. If this is indeed true, then there would be numerous references that are considered in high regard to be reliable that would state this as a fact and rule of science. The fact that you cited literature about chakras will absolutely draw concerns - you're interpreting their beliefs and stating them as being real. Instead, you may consider stating that "literature regarding chakra states that the universe is an energy field..." instead of stating that this is a discovery in modern physics. Little words like these that will conveyed to the reader will change your entire statement from appearing to be from one point of view to being from another that is completely different very quickly.


 * You also state that "The crystal practitioner performing the healing attempts to create an energy field..." This, along with your previous statement, only adds to the concern about reflecting a neutral point of view. Just state what the practitioner does - they place healing stones or crystals on the receiving person's "chakra location" as described in literature. The colors and other specifics about the stones don't concern me; it's just the way that you worded the content that you added.


 * I hope that this response has helped you with gaining a better understanding of how to word content to reflect a neutral point of view. Also, remember that the Wikimedia Foundation recommends to instructors not to grade students based on the content that ultimately is kept on Wikipedia and later disputed, reverted, modified, shortened, or removed. They should be grading you on the quality of the content that you're attempting to add, as well as the quality of the references that you are citing in support. They can refer to diff links to those edits on the article's edit history. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me by messaging me on my user talk page. I'll be more than happy to answer any questions and assist you further. :-) I wish you a great day, and happy editing! Best regards -  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   07:54, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'll add to Oshwah's comments - you really need to use the article's talk page and get consensus for this kind of addition - it is obvious that multiple editors of that page think that your contributions there are not improvements to the articles, and have been removing them. Please don't try to reinstate any of that material, now you know that it is disputed. (To be honest, I'm not convinced that Crystal healing is an article that is well-suited to an educational assignment by a novice editor.)

Me again. Can you help with copyright please?
has used verbatim a report on a death at these two articles Only Built for Infinity Links and Pure Water (Mustard and Migos song) from external sitehttps://jhalake.com/ which has a privacy issue statement about not copying the content. I'm assuming from the user name that the user writes the blog? It's also poorly written. I've not reverted it as yet. The last time I tried dealing with copyright I messed it up a bit. Do you think you can help? Knitsey (talk) 19:31, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * GREAT catch, ! It looks like both edits were taken care of by a different user before I got to them, but copyright issues are a bit of a weak area for me, as I'm still kind of learning the policies surrounding them. As we've both mentioned before, there is so much information to absorb, and even I've barely scratched the surface! Either way, good catch on that, and I'll try to help keep an eye on that! :) SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 19:39, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks SPF, yeah someone caught them. Cheers! Knitsey (talk) 19:42, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No problem at all ! Don't hesitate to reach out (I know I've said it before lol,) but I genuinely enjoy communicating with other Wikipedians! And if I might add, you're doing excellent work here.

How to write on someone with little information.
Hello! I am writing a biography from scratch, but I am finding very little information on this person. Any clever tips or tricks on writing for someone who has very little or dubious sources about them, at best? DreadTwist7564 (talk) 23:53, 7 November 2022 (UTC) DreadTwist7564 (talk) 23:54, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * DreadTwist7564, I have Spf121188's talk page on my watchlist, so I thought I'd chime in. Are you sure this person is notable? Who is the subject? Jweiss11 (talk) 00:54, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No, unfortunately. But there are very little ecofeminists that are; people that believe feminism and ecology are closely tied and repressed by masculine hegemony in similar ways. Her name is Judith Plant. She authored several books such as "Healing the Wounds: The Promise of Ecofeminism", and "Culture Gap: Towards a New World in the Yalakom Valley." DreadTwist7564 (talk) 01:11, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Also do you know how to save changes in the sandbox? DreadTwist7564 (talk) 01:13, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Plant could be notable. I'm seeing some coverage on Newspapers.com, e.g. https://www.newspapers.com/clip/112717228/times-colonist/. Perhaps you can get subscriber access to Newspapers.com through your university? Jweiss11 (talk) 01:17, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! I'll check with the library. Do you also happen to know how to save changes in a sandbox? DreadTwist7564 (talk) 01:47, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for monitoring this for me! I usually am only active during the day here, so I appreciate it! As far as the sandbox goes,, check out this page, that should answer your questions about the sandbox. Basically, you'll save any edits to your sandbox as you normally would save an edit, and you should see your changes. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!!  SPF121188  (talk this way) (my edits) 14:01, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your assistance in all of this. Do you know of any other ways to find information on someone whom very little has been written about? DreadTwist7564 (talk) 13:27, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

, I think gives the best advice regarding finding information about a subject of whom not much has been written. I use Newspapers.com through the WMF to obtain sources from the press, columns, and other articles. If you don't find many sources otherwise, the subject of your article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. If you have any specific questions, please don't hesitate to leave me another message. Thanks! SPF121188 (talk this way) (my edits) 13:40, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

List of magical weapons
Hi there, sorry for the multiple edits I was just finding my way through editing and replying to comments from you.

Please note this summary I added to my latest edit:

Lightsabers are part of a "science fantasy" saga, not "science fiction". They can only be built using the Force, which is not a tech or scientific-based procedure. The Force being a surrogate for spiritual power, it allows the Lightsaber to be classified as a magical weapon as much as the "Rings of Power" are magical weapons - even though in-universethey pretty much aren't. Likewise, the Darksaber - to which the same principle applies - is pretty much seen as the "Excalibur" of Star Wars.

 * Fair enough, ! I didn't really look into their contribs before responding, guess I should have.. oof SPF121188  (talk this way) (my edits) 19:00, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I didn't really see anything wrong other than them randomly giving me and you wikilove messages despite neither of us having interacted with them. You could ask Bbb23 to clarify if you want. ― <b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Blaze Wolf</b>Talk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 19:02, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Hi and thanks or the Barnstar!! :) Yesss, I feel much better and more refreshed, so I'm back for good! I just took everything from my talk page down, back to the version before I took my break message down, so that's my bad! I look forward to seeing you around and I do appreciate it greatly :)  SPF121188  (talk this way) (my edits) 20:06, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey, no worries, glad to hear you're feeling much better! Can't wait for the 2023 Daytona 500 next week :) Tails   Wx  02:50, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * My wife and I are both SUPER excited for it! Can't wait, hopefully it's a good one, :) I'm sure it will be, it always is.  SPF121188  (talk this way) (my edits) 14:21, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I wonder if it'll be crazy like 2020 or 2021, but only Sunday will tell if it will. Thanks for the barnstar, by the way! Tails   Wx  14:29, 14 February 2023 (UTC)

Tyson Bagent
You asked me to and a source on his father and I did and then you removed my edit again and said his father actually needs a Wikipedia page himself to be included. What exactly is the rule here? Also, Tyson's father Tyler is a way more notable person than Tyson. 24.192.92.163 (talk) 21:44, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
