 * ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made was constructive, please read about it, [ report it here], remove this message from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
 * For help, take a look at the introduction.
 * The following is the log entry regarding this message: Frederic Edwin Church was changed by Surveyor Mount (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.876649 on 2023-03-02T11:05:12+00:00

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Names for India. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 00:13, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi Surveyor Mount! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Tibet Autonomous Region several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 11:51, 17 March 2023 (UTC)

 * 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.

 * If this article "Names of India" with the unsourced material marked as, it needs reliable sources must not contain original research or to be removed. Surveyor Mount (talk) 00:21, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I am sure whole of that page and found that this informatioin was absolutely unverifiable, having chanced upon this page for the first time in your life. You are a genius. What can I say? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:40, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
 * It's okay, just keep it as a secondary source. Surveyor Mount (talk) 00:13, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

State names in infoboxes
Hi - Please be aware that all other infoboxes in New Hampshire and in most of the U.S. use the (Name, State) format. This is consistent with MOS:INFOBOXGEO, which states that infoboxes for geographical items should generally be headed with the article title. Your reason for changing the infobox title to just "Keene" doesn't appear compelling enough to make an exception to that guideline here. Best wishes, Ken Gallager (talk) 13:39, 17 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I see you've also changed the title in Exeter, New Hampshire. Please stop making any further changes until you have explained why they should override the standard format. Ken Gallager (talk) 13:41, 17 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Please also note the standard infobox layout at the beginning of WP:USCITIES. Ken Gallager (talk) 13:51, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey, someone following my edit for New Haven, Connecticut, by a stranger for not following WP:USCITIES guideline. Better avoid hounding for this one. Surveyor Mount (talk) 22:40, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Have you edited under other accounts before? You are citing a lot of meta knowledge for such a new user. TylerBurden (talk) 02:52, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * No, but I tried to get around in other Wikimedia projects. Back in 2018, here in Wikipedia, then followed to Commons and Meta by sometime in 2020. It's been 6 years I've began editing in Wikimedia Foundation wikis. Surveyor Mount (talk) 03:08, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, I self-reverted two articles for Nyack, New York and Antioch, Illinois without prior consensus. Surveyor Mount (talk) 11:54, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

Year pages
Please do not remove births and deaths from year pages un less and until you have established correct links to the births and deaths. For instance, the link you give to Deaths in 1987 merely gives a circular link back to 1987. These means the resource has been deleted. I suggest you revert the deletions until this is sorted out. Thank youRcb1 (talk) 10:10, 4 April 2023 (UTC)rcb1


 * As requested per RfC: split births & deaths from year articles, the consensus is to remove deaths from larger articles. If section are merged with births and deaths and replaced with a template. Surveyor Mount (talk) 11:08, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you.  I have no problem with removing births and deaths from the main page to a separate section, if that is the consensus.  I personally wouldn't do it as I think that deaths in particular are often newsworthy and significant (I will remember last year about all for Elizabeth II's death) but I'm not hung up about it.  What I AM bothered about is deleting then and replacing them with a link to a non-existent page.  That is essentially deleting a resource or, to use another word,  vandalism. Please only move births and deaths where a proper link to another page exists - and restore them where that page does not exist.Rcb1 (talk) 11:50, 4 April 2023 (UTC)rcb1

April 2023
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Assassination of Kim Jong-nam, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. ''Please do not move this page, or any other related page until the discussion at Talk:Kim Jong-un has closed with a consensus in favour of moving. Thank you.'' Sideswipe9th (talk) 03:28, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Page moves
Hello, Surveyor Mount,

You've only been editing Wikipedia for a few weeks so I wanted to let you know that it was very premature to move articles under discussion at Talk:Kim Jong-un. These discussions usually last at least a week unless the opinion is unanimous. Please stick to becoming a better editor by improving articles and not undertaking administrative duties like this. An administrator or experienced editor will eventually close this discussion and can carry out the consensus decision. There should be a very good reason for moving an article to a different title, a move based in policy and a consensus of the editors participating in a move discussion.

If you have questions about policies and practices on Wikipedia, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 04:04, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Britten
I have no idea, sorry, what the question is in the RfC you began for Benjamin Britten. Please clarify. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:56, 11 April 2023 (UTC)


 * The inclusion of honorifics in articles like "Sir Edward Elgar" or "The Lord Britten" can be included in  parameter.  Surveyor   Mount  02:38, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, I understand, but Bejamin Britten has no infobox to include it in. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:13, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
