FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives
Hi,, I noticed your revert, but the anonymous user is correct: Robert Francis Van Wisse surrendered on March 28, 2017, hence the list should be updated. :) Lotje (talk) 14:00, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Hey, thank you for informing me of this. I didn't know as there was no edit summary. I'll go fix it right now. Cheers,  ΤheQ Editor   Talk? 14:06, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * You are most welcome. Lotje (talk) 14:06, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi, I noticed that there are two other people on the list that was captured. I don't know much about the FBI list and any wiki policies surrounding this. Should all the captured/surrendered fugitives be deleted, their removal delayed, or have them moved to another section or page? Thanks,  ΤheQ Editor   Talk? 14:11, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * this link is updated regularly. Should we add it on the bottom of the page then? Lotje (talk) 14:14, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * , Yes, the wikilist should correspond with the actual FBI list. You can move any outdated fugitives to FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, 2010s  ΤheQ Editor  Talk? 14:33, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

Welcome back
Thank you for your nice message, and welcome back after your wikibreak!

I noticed that NGC backlog is very large, so I decided to do something about it. We'll see how long will my enthusiasm last :)

Felix558 (talk) 23:28, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much! I don't know if you know this already, but on the German and Turkish Wikipedia, there is an almost complete list of NGC articles: found de:Liste der NGC-Objekte and tr:Kategori:NGC cisimleri. Once I have some time, I'll definitely help reduce the backlog as well. Cheers,  ΤheQ Editor   Talk? 23:41, 30 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'm also using articles from the German Wikipedia as a source, they are very useful (fortunately I have some basic knowledge of the German language). If their article (and Wikimedia) do not have an image of the NGC object in question, I try to find some public domain photo on the internet so that I can upload it to the Wikimedia (I did that for the NGC 7259, for example).

STiki
Hi,

I noticed that while you reverting vandals, you left an edit summary: "Reverted 1 good faith edit." Re:, , , , and. But these edits are not good faith. It is the clear case of vandalism. If an edit is blatantly unconstructive and intentional in its malice, then it constitutes vandalism. But sometimes edits are clearly unconstructive, but lack the intent and malice that characterizes vandalism. In these cases, one should assume good faith by undoing the changes using a Good-faith revert. Please see WP:AGF. Regards, X ain36  ( talk ) 05:37, 13 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello, thanks for bringing these reverts up. I used the good faith revert for two main reasons. Firstly, I did not believe for certain that these edits had been malicious with intent. For the first five edits, it was the first time they had been warned. Secondly, I generally prefer he STiki "good faith" revert button as the message on the user's talk page is customized (blanking, test edits, BLP violations etc.). For 1, it could have been a test edit. I understand their edit summary might have suggested otherwise, but I didn't think I noticed the summary. For 2, I think it could have entirely been possible that it was a test edit / accidental edit especially since it was a mobile web edit. I think 3 didn't have any malicious intent at all. The editor might have been confused and instead of using the talk page or putting up a clarification tag, they wrote their concern directly into the article which I would consider as good faith. For 6, I believe it was entirely in good faith. The editor was trying to give out more information about a film, but did so in a biased fashion.


 * However, looking back on some of my other reverts such as 5 I could've have spent a bit longer evaluating it. The user had made similar edits in the past but was not warned, which would constitute as malicious. My general philosophy is that unless it's very obvious, I usually assume good faith if the editor hasn't been warned before.  ΤheQ Editor   Talk? 22:41, 15 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Well, your point is right. But from my point of view, this edit summary may encourage the vandal Users/IP. Regards, X ain36  ( talk ) 05:33, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
 * If that's the case then it'll be safe to assume bad faith from there. However, a "vandalism" edit summary may discourage someone who truly was acting in good faith. Actually, I'm pretty sure STiki has an option to customize the edit summary so I'll probably change it to "reverted edits" instead of "reverted good faith edits." Thanks!

American Kennel Club page
I made the edits to the page because there is inaccurate information to it. Some of the information cited was incorrect (even in the articles which are outdated and reflect many issues that have been rectified) and so I deleted it. Here are a few:

1) The AKC employs more than 9 inspectors

2) The AKC is not a club

3) The AKC does not have breeding standards; actually the clubs are the ones who set breed standards across the board; the AKC set the breeding age to protect the health of dogs

4) The AKC National Championship IS NOT an invitational and has not been in almost a decade

5)Companion events apply to more than just PAL/ILP dogs

6) There are more sports than the ones listed

7) The AKC does not certify kennels; we inspect them

8) The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel came into AKC recognition in 1995, how could it reject recognition in 2000; it was already recognized and continues to be and compete in all AKC events

9) The number of bills the AKC has opposed according to HSUS is inaccurate and has been rebutted as such and should not be included. It is not a fact.

And there are many more — Preceding unsigned comment added by Novelistbytrade (talk • contribs) 16:27, 21 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi and thank you for raising your concerns and taking an interest in this article. I am not an expert regarding the AKC but the points removed were stated by reliable sources. For your first concern about "The AKC employs more than 9 inspectors", the inline citation states "The A.K.C. employs nine field agents, or inspectors, nationwide." Granted, the article was written in 2013 and many things could have changed within the last 6 years. Before blanking it, please provide reliable sources about how this has changed since then. Even better, it would be best to modify the original statement by making clear the year was 2013 instead of deleting all possible outdated content.
 * For (2) and (3) I am not sure, though I would assume a kennel club qualifies as a club... Feel free to make these changes granted that you cite reliable sources.
 * For (4), that may be right as the article cited was from 13 years ago. However, it would be best if the original statement was kept and new information was added. For example, you could write "However starting from [year], the championship was no longer invitational."
 * For (5), I don't actually see one of your changes which affect the statement about PAL/ILP dogs but if that is the case, please expand / clarify int he article.
 * For (6), thank you for expanding the article. As that bit of the edit was part of the blanking, I had to revert that. Feel free to add that section back in, though I recommend linking to an internal Link rather than an external link.
 * For (7), if that is the case, please modify it given you have a reliable source. However, due to the wording "we inspect them", it seems like you currently work for the AKC. Wikipedia has a very strict policy about conflicts of interest. I would recommend you to read the article linked before proceeding.
 * For (8), this article linked said it rejected recognition in 2000. I'm not too sure on what you're asking but again if you wish to modify it, please provide a reliable source.
 * For (9), again this article said "The list goes on and on, running to more than 300 separate genetic disorders that subject dogs to enormous pain, roil the emotional life of their owners and, estimates Dr. William Schall, a genetic specialist at Michigan State University, cost almost $1 billion in vet bills and lost revenues from stillborn pups, which cannot be sold." If you believe this number is inaccurate and disputed, please provide sources. On Wikipedia, just because a number is disputed does not mean it should be removed. Instead, the disputes should be mentioned in the prose to provide a neutral point of view.
 * Generally, please provide reliable sources and justification before blanking or removing content. In most cases, the proper action to take is to modify the prose instead of removing it, or adding clarifications. Again, if you are working for the kernel club, there may be a conflict of interest. These issues should be brought up on the article's talk page instead. I have undo-ed your latest edits to the page as per the comments I mentioned above.

Roll back and change
Hi - Thanks for the comment on my edits (which you rolled back). I now realize that I should have put a comment for it (it's my 2nd time editing content, so did not know it was necessary).

The 'undo' (roll back) was erroneous though (meaning, I corrected a wrong entry, and the undoing of it makes it incorrect again). Should I redo the correction (but this time put a note/reference to the correct information?)

(also, you mentioned we can experiment with sandbox. If I do that - how does it turn to an actual update? Or is the purpose of sandbox to try before you put things in the real entry? If so - then in the particular case I did not need it, as all I did was change an incorrect title and added an entry from IMDB that was missing).

Thanks for the time to alert me on the edit description feature that I will use in the future if I edit anything. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.255.58.197 (talk) 20:01, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
