Afghan War lead
Hey, I saw that you reverted the changes made to the lead of War in Afghanistan (2001–present). Any objection to me reintroducing those changes? I get that Peilin is blocked, but I thought the change was helpful as it fixes the problem of the lead being too long. --Cerebellum (talk) 09:31, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I haven't checked the edit but the users previous edits were disruptive so I reverted it. You can restore it if you approve it. Viewsridge (talk) 10:06, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

Important notices
Hi, if you encounter disruption in these areas, you may request assistance with proof (Help:Diffs) at WP:ANI (default) or WP:AE (advanced; carefully follow the instructions). On the contrary, WP:AIV is usually not the right venue for such reports, as this is rarely "vandalism" and almost always disruptive editing done in good faith. I'm removing your AIV report for this reason. Best regards, ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:11, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for bringing the map back. I was about to get an edit request to bring the map back until you came. I think that Adoring Nanny vandalised it but I'm not sure. Thank you.

Image of countries giving humanitarian aid to Ukraine?
Hello, I was wondering if you could make an additional image to the excellent one you have made - that details the humanitarian aid that is listed on List of foreign aid to Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian War. With more and more Russian allies sending aid to Ukraine, I think it is very important to acknowledge this. Distrait cognizance (talk) 10:39, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Here you go. Viewsridge (talk) 10:46, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Amazing, thank you. I will try to change the colors later so that they are slightly lighter overall, just to differentiate the images. Distrait cognizance (talk) 11:13, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * No problem, you can try using Inkscape, it's a free program that is fairly easy to use. Viewsridge (talk) 11:15, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Maps
Why are you changing maps of disputed areas without bothering to arrive at a consensus in favor? TrangaBellam (talk) 21:32, 3 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I have mass-rollbacked your edits to restore status quo. Discuss at WT:INB before re-committing your edits. TrangaBellam (talk) 21:34, 3 April 2022 (UTC)


 * The data on the map is inconsistent as well. You say that Rr016 was the author, but you also label it as "own work". Moreover, you haven't said what part of the map is based on OpenStreetMap and what is "own work". On 3 April 2022 (the date given on the map), OSM doesn't show any international borders for Ladakh. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 23:08, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Could you take this discussion to WT:INB? Viewsridge (talk) 09:58, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Academic research project on "2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.svg"
I am an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Boulder and have been a Wikipedia researcher for over a decade. I wanted to inquire if you might be available for an interview for a research project I am doing about the "2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.svg" file. I'm focused on how this image is produced and governed, how it circulates across articles and projects, and the technical stack of templates and modules that enable this "war mapping". I would like to make sure that my understanding is accurate with an expert like yourself as well as to document your experience and perspectives participating in this unusual collaboration. If you're interested, please contact me at brian.keegan@colorado.edu Madcoverboy (talk) 23:37, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
