User talk:Tenryuu/Archives/Jan–Jun 2023

Transcleanupgal
It's not usual that I feel insulted on Wikipedia, though at the same time, it's probably not worthwhile for me to ask for an apology on being called a "patent nonsense troll". That said, I hugely appreciate you and the IP editor sticking up on my behalf. Do please understand I was operating under nothing but good faith, regardless of how other editors might interpret my words. It just saddens me at how generally vicious the overall discussion has become over a user interface. 🌈WaltCip - (talk)  12:45, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @WaltCip: You're welcome. I held my tongue despite the badgering behaviour, but the conduct on the user talk page (though allowed by policy) went too far. I can only hope this vitriol levels off in the coming weeks as people find workarounds or get used to the new skin. — Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 00:26, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Template:Welcometea
Hi. Could you please explain the purpose of this template? Can it be deleted? -- DB 1729 talk 01:23, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
 * @DB1729: I made this small template because some Teahouse hosts like me are also regulars at the help desk, and every once in a while we forget which page we're on. The template is coded so that it returns the page title, with its use on the Teahouse appearing more organic in style. — Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:02, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Ok, thanks for the explanation. Cheers! DB 1729 talk 03:25, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

Requesting copy edits
Hi, you replied to one of my queries on the Teahouse regarding copyedits yesterday. And that page's copyedit has been done by other users. I noticed your profile and found out that you do copyediting yourself upon request.

Can you copyedit this page? Thank you! X (talk) 14:05, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
 * @Xkalponik: Hi, sorry for the late response. I've done a quick copyedit for style and extending contractions. — Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 17:22, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
