I placed that message in error, and have, I believe, the right to retract it.--Yellow Diamond Δ Direct Line to the Diamonds  22:46, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

Deedeedee Steven
You filed the sockpuppet report for ItsMeItsMeItsDeeDeeDee at Sockpuppet_investigations/Deedeedee_Steven/Archive. However, the archive is for cases that have already been closed. I filed the report where it belongs at Sockpuppet_investigations/Deedeedee_Steven. Thank you for bringing in attention to this obvious sock; just be sure to file them in the correct place in the future. Happy editing! JDDJS (talk) 05:24, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

Ah, thanks for sorting that out. I really don't know how those areas work. --Yellow Diamond Δ Direct Line to the Diamonds  05:27, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
 * If you're using WP:TWINKLE, all you have to do is click on ARV under the TW tab, and simply select sockpuppet as report type and enter the required information and it will file the report for you. If you are not using Twinkle, I highly recommend that you start using it because it has numerous features that simplify a lot of processes while editing. JDDJS (talk) 05:38, 25 December 2016 (UTC)


 * I use Twinkle a lot, so that's very helpful. Thanks!--Yellow Diamond Δ Direct Line to the Diamonds  05:42, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

Cho Hŏn
I have completed a review and moved the article to the main space. You would do well to learn how to use WP:SFN formatting and WP:Citation templates. See also Help:Shortened footnotes. When you create a reference like and thereafter repeat the reference, it should look like this: You'll need to open up this edit to see how it looks internally.  Your repeated use of the article name followed by is not right. Please don't take this as a criticism. We all have much to learn, and it's a humongous encyclopedia with unlimited possibilities and demands. Otherwise, well done. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:51, 18 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the referencing instructions. I haven't actually read, now that I think about it, any instructions on referencing, I've just opened up other articles and seen how their code worked. Evidently the articles I've emulated were rather imperfect.
 * (Also, wasn't Cho Hon already in the main space?)--Yellow Diamond&#39;s Pearl (talk) 21:28, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * It was in your drafts, awaiting approval. So I don't think so.
 * There is lots of bad reference formatting here. My pleasure to give you some gentle direction.  "Give a man a fish, and feed him for a day ... "
 * And you should be aware of (and wary of) WP:CITEVAR. Some of our editors get stuck in their rut, and it is a trap for the unwary.  I have had mixed reactions in that.  I won't bore you with the details (but speaking of bore, I got positive feedback when I fixed the mess at Smith & Wesson.
 * And using EFN refs can give your article a whole new dimension. see Yank Levy, for example.
 * Best regards. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 21:38, 18 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I see it had that template, and originally, it was a userspace draft. But it was already in the mainspace, albeit unreviewed, before you edited it. --Yellow Diamond&#39;s Pearl (talk) 21:46, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * As to page numbers, the format you added introduced "Harvard errors." You are supposed to be able to click on the link to the book, and it then highlights the book.  What you did messed up that function.  Also, hypothetically, when you put in  You can add in within brackets [URL 392] if you have a URL for the specific page, and this will display as a link to that URL.  I apologize for burdening you with too much.  But I don't know that many editors know that trick, which I discovered on my own.  Best.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 22:00, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Steve Sailer edit
Yellow Diamond Jjc2002 here. As you may have figured out I'm not computer savvy and didn't know how to insert the link to the Steve Sailer article. I'm not ever sure that this is right way to message you. I'd be obliged if you could do it for me.

Could you tell me what exactly that site is? I went onto it, deleting the part after ".net" and it looks very low tech - is it an archive?--Yellow Diamond Δ Direct Line to the Diamonds  21:52, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Yellow Diamond Jjc2002 here. Apologies for not responding sooner, I somehow missed your reply. Yes it is an archive. If you go to Pinker’s homepage at Harvard (https://stevenpinker.com/publications/best-american-science-and-nature-writing) he lists Sailer at a contributor to the book but doesn’t mention the article by name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjc2002 (talk • contribs) 14:16, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
