Hello. I object to your action on this image, on several counts.
 * The image size was well within the guidelines at WP:IMAGERES.
 * The rationale for the image size was explained clearly on the talk page and in the FUR.
 * All requirements were met as per IMAGERES.
 * Did you even read the talk page thread? You certainly didn't add a word there.
 * Your upload is not an improvement. You have substantially reduced the visual impact by cropping off a large part of the wing of the aircraft.
 * As I understand it, it is your function to ensure that guidelines are followed (they were), not to override the editorial judgment of the editors working on an article. Do I have that wrong? &#8213; Mandruss  &#9742;  18:15, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
 * I see your revert. Thank you very much! &#8213; Mandruss  &#9742;  18:24, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 27
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Avianca Flight 52, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Flaps. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

 * Hello, I've posted an update to this section. Specifically, "I concur in the closing of this discussion. Ideally, User:Michaelh2001 should have posted to AN or ANI to request an uninvolved closure of the debate. However, as there was only one dissenting opinion over the course of a month, and I find a lack of consensus in the debate, it is determined that there is no consensus to perform the merge.".

Thank you for quality articles on disasters, such as September 11 attacks, American Airlines Flight 77 and 2015 Chattanooga shootings, and art, such as Unique Forms of Continuity in Space and Grande Odalisque, for politely warning users of bad referencing, original research, test editing etc, and for gnomish updates and reverts, for templates such as September 11 attacks and expanding templates, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Recent edits
Hi, Veggies! Your name has come up a lot on my watchlist lately due to your work on photo templates on the talk pages of school articles. I just undid one of your edits, to Talk:Seneca Academy and Circle School. Talk pages of pages that have been redirected are not redirected to the talk page of the target of the redirect on the article page. They are left as is to preserve any record of why the page was redirected. Of course removing photo requested templates is fine, as would be changing the class to "redirect". If you've done any more of them, please undo them. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 17:42, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting me know. I had done that to some other article talk-pages. Those have now been reverted. I was under the impression that if there was nothing but templates on the talk page (no actual "talk"), I could redirect. Thanks for letting me know. -- Veggies ( talk ) 17:47, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for creating 2017 Delaware earthquake, Veggies!

Wikipedia editor Gatemansgc just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

"Largest earthquake in the history of Delaware, previous was a 3.8. Therefore, this is likely to be notable, despite the 'weak' magnitude compared to California earthquakes. The one 6 years ago continued notability."

Proposed deletion of 2017 Delaware earthquake


The article 2017 Delaware earthquake has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "not newsworthy, very small magnitude"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Isotope graphs
You've recently removed a graph of isotopes from several articles. Such large changes should typically be discussed first, especially when the reason for them is not apparent.

Survey Invite
I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_3CTAg668hojR9vT&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 13:27, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Obvious copyright violations
Hi,

I saw you spotted a whole bunch of image copyright violations. Thanks for that! When they are very obvious copyright violations, it isn't really necessary to go through FFD. In the future, you could tag them for speedy deletion with an explanation instead of a URL. I've done that for these images. Cheers. -- Whpq (talk) 21:45, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the only thing is that CSD forces me to put in a URL and I don't want to research every specific URL in Google Earth or Maps for each image. Can I just put a generic URL in like earth.google.com or maps.google.com? -- Veggies (talk</b>) 21:48, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * As I mentioned in my post, stick in an explanation instead of a URL. I know the parameter says URL, but you can stick in an explanation and admins seem to find this acceptable as I've not run across any objections when I've done it.   -- Whpq (talk) 21:51, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Hoda Muthana and Tweets
For the above article, tweets made by the subject or about the subject are not relevant to the subject's entire life or necessary to accurately describe the situation the subject is currently in. There is no need to add the tweets when they are generally mentioned in the article itself. The case may be different if the tweets were somehow central and necessary for a reader's understanding of the article, but that is not the case here. Going further, why these tweets, what makes them special of all of the tweets she allegedly made? As far as the president's tweet, he has made thousands of tweets on both sides of numerous issues. Yet, we do not add his tweets to every article or subject he touches.

Also, one of the tweets is picked up by Google as the article synopsis and instead of giving a brief preview of the article, the following is what Google is showing when you search for the subejct:

The does somewhat fall under WP:NOTFORUM as not particularly relevant (albeit tangentially trying to make a slightly related point) to the discussed topic. At the same time, while NOTFORUM violations are subject to removal, they do not fall under vandalism. There’s no more issue here.

Source for New York Post article on The Day After
Hey. I looked into that bit you removed as unsourced and found that it did have a cite, the Empire article we use at five points in the article, but the cite was removed on style grounds, since the paragraph cited that source too often.

I've restored that bit and the cite, and the sentence after it which also lost its cite and met the same fate. That cool? --Kiz o r  21:29, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I mean, I suppose that it suffices for Wikipedia's purposes. The problem that remains is: this is a claim about the New York Post. I'd like a direct citation to the NYP article in question, not a secondary source about another publisher's claims. Also: that particular citation is, unfortunately, rather weak. There's no cited author, no clear issue number. It isn't helped by the fact that the article isn't available online (even behind a paywall). As it stands, though, I'm not going to futz with it anymore.

In the Arab–Israeli conflict topic area editors are limited to 1 revert per article per day. However, at 2023 Israel–Hamas war you have exceeded this, making the following reverts: Note that for our purposes, The term "revert" is defined as any edit (or administrative action) that reverses or undoes the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, and whether performed using undo, rollback, or done so completely manually. A series of consecutively saved reverting edits by one user, with no intervening edits by another user, counts as one revert.

palestine populations
Hi, and thank you for going through all these, but having seen these in my watchlist and having previously admired how the Israeli localities have their populations updated yearly, I thought it would be a better idea to start a template that has the latest Palestinian census figures so they can be centrally updated as needed. If you want to do that instead of going through each article, I started the template at User:Nableezy/sandbox.

I don't know how to push a script through, though. -- <b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">Veggies</b> (<b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">talk</b>) 04:01, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I extracted the 2017 census, but need to go through to make sure the names match up with how we have them. You can see an example of how it would work in an article at User:Nableezy/Sandbox. <small style="border: 1px solid;padding:1px 3px;white-space:nowrap"> nableezy  - 04:05, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Cool. I finished at page 76 in the report with the Jerusalem Governate and stopped at the Bethlehem Governate. That governate through the end is all that's left to complete. Let me know if you figure it out. Thanks. -- <b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">Veggies</b> (<b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">talk</b>) 04:09, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Israeli Settlements in West Bank
Hello, I noticed you started adding in cities under control of the Ramallah administration in the West Bank at Template:Israeli-Palestinian conflict detailed map and this is highly appreciated; I assume you're going to finish it off by adding in Palestinian settlements in the Hebron and Jericho areas as well.

My question is, are you going to add in Israeli settlements for the full picture? Thanks in advance. TheMapLurker (talk) 21:39, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, definitely. It's a work in progress. Also (eventually) the towns and villages within Israel. I've just been going down the latest Palestinian census, village by village. Next will be the Israeli settlements. -- <b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">Veggies</b> (<b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">talk</b>) 05:16, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

coordinates
Hi, Where are you getting your coordinates from? Zerotalk 03:34, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
 * The coordinates for villages and points of interest, etc? If something looks off-center on OpenStreetMap, I try to get the most centralized coordinate from Google Maps. -- <b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">Veggies</b> (<b style="color: blue; font-family: Times New Roman;">talk</b>) 03:43, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

File:October 2023 Gaza−Israel conflict.svg
Hi. An admin (user Sadads) has rightfully pointed to the fact that File:October 2023 Gaza−Israel conflict.svg is a problem for colorblind people. Could you change the red on the map into light green to match the color on the template map? Tradedia talk 00:46, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
