RE:IP User
Just a heads up, an admin blocked the anon user from editing for 1 week. The entire /64 block I requested seems to have been blocked. Thanks again for your assistance in this matter. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  01:31, 6 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks so much for taking the lead, much appreciated! Wracking  💬 01:40, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Another heads up. The same anon has been blocked yet again for the same behavior. This time for another 6 months on both known IP ranges. Something tells me this isn't the last time we will see them. :) Thanks and have a good day. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  10:58, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

What's with the non-breaking space after dash?
In edits like this one you're randomly inserting nbsps after dashes. Normally, an nbsp is preferred before an en dash, if at all, so the dash will be at the end of a line and not the start, as in Template:spd or Template:snd. Dicklyon (talk) 04:48, 14 June 2023 (UTC)


 * @Dicklyon - Not on purpose! I think I have a script running (likely wikiEd?) that's doing that :/ sorry for the disturbance! It usually makes helpful changes, but you're right, this one's weird. I'll try to figure out how to stop it. Thanks for letting me know! Wracking  talk! 13:35, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

2023 Canadian Wildfires
Please be more mindful before making accusations on folks talk pages. You made a false claim of removing references, none were removed on my part, and the material you claimed I removed, I simply moved to a different section discussing the topic at hand, to make for better better continuity and readability.

I can see why you may have been confused by interim edits; please be more mindful making accusations in the future.

Thanks for your editing. Crescent77 (talk) 23:55, 16 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I did not mean to imply that you removed refs (the unclear wording was completely my fault), or to make accusations. I've on your talk page, being more clear about the specific issue. Thanks!  Wracking  talk! 00:04, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I was a little short. I'm well aware climate change is contentious here on WP, it's all too common when making changes for the sake of accuracy to be challenged by either/both climate activists and climate deniers who want language used that better fits their narrative, and are willing to abandon good faith to make it so. Crescent77 (talk) 00:34, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 * No worries, I'm glad we could clear things up. I also didn't mean to come across as short, and hope I didn't! Best, Wracking  talk! 00:38, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

2023 Stanley Cup Finals
Hi there! I noticed this edit you made recently at 2023 Stanley Cup Finals. I really appreciate you adding in the abbreviations. It helps add to the quality and readability of these articles. However, I noticed you capitalized the abbreviations, thereby making them acronyms. While that isn't an issue, it does make it inconsistent with the 14 (not withstanding a mediocre 2008) prior Stanley Cup Finals articles. It also makes it inconsistent with the infobox tables created with each game recap in the playoffs articles (that's about 120 articles) which use italics. That being said, I don't particularly find it problematic to make the switch, but because that's approximately 4000 "pp", "sh", and "en" to change. If you have a quicker way of implementing this change, I'm all ears. Otherwise, I'll likely revert. Conyo14 (talk) 02:52, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Edit, I won't revert the edit completely, just make them italics lowercase again. Conyo14 (talk) 02:54, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Got it, thanks for letting me know. Wracking  talk! 20:32, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
