Hi Traumnovelle! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Not a big issue; just so you know.  Schwede  66  21:47, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Reusing references
Hello, I reused the reference you added to Dog skin disorders because I assume that's what you were trying to do. See the relevant help page. Also, when you linked to "extremities", that link went to a disambiguation page (i.e. a page with various meanings of the word "Extremity) rather than an article; I changed it to link to "Paw". Graham87 (talk) 04:37, 27 January 2024 (UTC)


 * I think I actually forgot to add a citation myself. But that was the source I was using. I linked to extremities because that's what the paper referred to which includes paws amongst other things. I left the disambiguation as multiple pages there were correct/relevant, although that may be confusing/not apparent. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:49, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Ah yes. We generally much prefer no link at all rather than a link to a disambiguation page except in very unusual situations. Since "extremities" is a common English word, I think it's fine to leave it unlinked ... and have just put that word back again. Graham87 (talk) 09:59, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion
Hi there! I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=1211147060&diff=prev reverted] my fix to List of British Jewish entertainers.

If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both  and one or more   referring to it. Someone then removed the  but left the , which results in a big red error in the article. I replaced one of the remaining  with a copy of the  ; I did not re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the remaining instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove all instances of the named reference so as to not leave any big red error.

If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at User talk:AnomieBOT so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at User:AnomieBOT/shutoff/OrphanReferenceFixer. Thanks!

Reversion of French bulldog article
You reverted the edits I was making to the citations in the French bulldog article before I had finished. I'm now done, having over-written the reversion with the edits I was working on at the time; I think it's cumulative of everything I'd done. You may wish to again revert the edits, since it seems that you are so inclined. 107.122.85.58 (talk) 20:48, 21 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I just saw the broken reference so I reverted, it's fine to overwrite if you're working on an article and someone reverts an unfinished change once you're finished.
 * Your edit got reverted by someone else this time. I'd like to note on Wikipedia consensus supports using standardised breed names for capitalisation per MOS:BREED. For example the French Bulldog and Labrador Retriever are capitalised as their breed standard has the name capitalised. Abyssinian cat doesn't have cat isn't included in the breed standard so it's not capitalised. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:57, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Lifespan of dogs
Hi! You've made a load of good edits to dog articles, for which many thanks! However, I'm slightly concerned at your numerous additions of a single study in a single country as a definitive source for life expectancy, and have reverted one such change at German Shepherd. As I said there, if there's a comprehensive scientific study of all longevity data published to date, it might be better to cite that. I'd expect such a study (if there is one, I haven't looked) to yield a range of values which might be more reliable than the figures published in the innumerable breed encyclopaedias, but until it's found those probably give a broader consensus figure than one small study in one small country. Don't want to make a big deal of this, but do take it to WT:DOGS if you like. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:43, 21 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I broke the reply when editing my comment. Do you feel the inclusion of those three studies in Wikivoice with the figure range presented in the infobox to be fine? I can try and get consensus on the Wikiproject in regards to which sources should be used for life expectancy but I feel that'd be quite slow and have little engagement. Traumnovelle (talk) 09:54, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm not aware of any meta-analysis/systemic review of life expectancy data for breeds unfortunately. This the largest study to my knowledge that includes breed data and most of the other sources used are outdated by at least two decades. I'm quite certain the breed encyclopaedias are based on anecdotal evidence given the only studies available at the time are mostly breed club surveys which have much lower figures. I do try and include other studies from other countries if they're recent and have good methodology and I believe I did try and search for one for the German Shepherd but only found a breed club survey with a significantly smaller sample size. I've looked again and gone through quite a few studies and found three of potential merit. This one is same country and smaller sample size but focuses solely on veterinary records whilst the aforementioned study uses several sources: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-10341-6/tables/3 I found an Italian study too: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167587724000412 both of these have merits for inclusion but in regards to an overall analysis, such does not exist to the best of my knowledge. This Swedish study is a bit old but represents a different country, unfortunately it appears the study may be in Swedish: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/1751-0147-46-121 Traumnovelle (talk) 20:00, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

pit bull story
Hi, I noticed you reverted my edit on the pit bull death in NYC. And I see now that's because the NYPost is considered an unreliable source. Here's another source for the story in case you'd like to revert my reversion: https://abc7ny.com/police-officers-fatally-shot-a-pit-bull-mauling-his-owner-inside-bronx-apartment/14737414/. Cheers. Juliakamin (talk) 10:34, 27 April 2024 (UTC)


 * I looked it up now that you mentioned it, but all the reports appear to be local. There's local consensus to only include incidents with non-local coverage, if you look at the other entries you will see they are either mentioned in a national publication or mentioned in a publication from another area.

May 2024
Your recent editing history at Aidi shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Skitash (talk) 09:48, 19 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Changing content to reflect what the citation actually describes isn't edit warring. Your behaviour of reversing an edit to an unverified claim that contradicts the citation then slapping an edit warring notice on my talk page is quite indicative of your own behaviour.

2024 New Jersey earthquake
Don't feel too bad about that AfD, I'm sorry that I missed it as I would have voted "Delete". One thing that I have learned while trying to get some sort of consistency for earthquake articles in terms of notability is that almost nobody reads WP:EVENT properly, as far as most participants at AfDs are concerned WP:GNG trumps everything, ignoring the fact the EVENT guideline was written because some startling events do not deserve an article due to the lack of "enduring notability". Another "guideline" I've noticed is that if an earthquake affects an English-speaking country, as long as lots of Wikipedia editors notice it, it doesn't matter what the long-term impact is, it will be kept, unless it's really tiny. The 2020 Caribbean earthquake was in my view kept because people were evacuated from buildings in Florida. It used to upset me but I'm trying to just ignore the inconsistencies, the project's not perfect. Mikenorton (talk) 19:33, 7 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Yeah I've dealt with quite a few WP:ILIKEIT discussions that ignore policy, I just move on because ultimately there are greater issues with the project than the Americentrism in regards to non-notable events and places having articles. Traumnovelle (talk) 19:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Dog diseases
Hi! I've tried to add some reliably-sourced dog diseases at Weimaraner. Several of them are red links and I'm not seeing where if anywhere to direct them. I think this is pretty much right in your field – can you help at all? Many thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:02, 25 June 2024 (UTC)


 * I've linked to appropriate articles for all but two. For eversion of the cartilage of the nictitating membrane I added a parenthetical explanation although you could format it to be like eversion of the cartilage of the nictating membrane. I'm not sure which is better for readers.
 * Usually those breed predisposition textbooks reference a study, do you know which study mentioned neutrophil function defect of Weimaraners? Traumnovelle (talk) 22:01, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, didn't see this! – many thanks for your help there. To be honest I'm not sure how great a source that Gough book is; it does have a list of references, but many of them are textbooks rather than individual papers. One of those cited is this, which discusses the thing as "Weimaraner neutrophil dysfunction". Scholar search shows a few possibly relevant results too (as before, this is not my field).

 * By the way, where did you find the lifespan figure in this source? – the only instance of 'Weimaraner' I can find is in figure 5, which doesn't give figures. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:20, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Thanks! Now added to the ref (perhaps add it to other citations of the same source too?). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:30, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Do you know of a way to automate that or do it much quicker than fully manually? Traumnovelle (talk) 21:24, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The closest article Wikipedia has currently is: Neutrophil immunodeficiency syndrome. There does not appear to be a generalised article for neutrophil deficiencies. Neutrophil is another potential target. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:35, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
 * A more recent textbook appears to describe the same condition (same symptoms) but calls it a form of chronic granulomatous disease. It cites: In vitro immunologic features of Weimaraner dogs with neutrophil abnormalities and recurrent infections.Vet Immunol Immunopathology which may be the same study cited in that book Gough cited? Traumnovelle (talk) 20:42, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The Gough book doesn't list any paper containing 'Weimaraner' in its list of sources, so probably not. Anyway, I think I'll leave that one as a redlink for now. Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:30, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Calico cat
The article of wagwalking that calls the predominately-black colored calico cat a “black calico” is a vet reviewed article thus I believe it can be considered a reliable source. Besides that this naming seems quite logical. when searching black calico in google I mostly got cat results and only a few calico fabric results. I feel this does not justify the deletion of the paragraph about black calico cats and the picture. Moreover I would like to add that if one searches for “black calico cat” there are dozens of pictures of cats that are mostly black but calico and this to me also seems to justify the value of the edit. Thank you for your consideration and I am looking forward to your kind feedback! Lepke99 (talk) 19:54, 9 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Yeah, no. It is a pet insurance company and many of these online pet websites mention veterinary review but will often just be lying about it. I contacted a British equine vet who was for some reason writing about cats and she told me she had never even heard of the website she was being presented on. This website doesn't even provide any information on the reviewer, and the article has been updated since said review. Reliability is not presumed for online sources, I see no good reason why a pet insurance company would be a reliable source. A tortoiseshell cat that is predominantly black is simply a tortoiseshell, not a black calico. Traumnovelle (talk) 01:17, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Oklahoma City bombing. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. VQuakr (talk) 03:29, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
