User talk:Zincaia

Hi, here. I appreciate what you are doing to change the Church websites, but per prior consensus, any changes to sources will just result in redirects right now, as well as possibly some dead links. Could you consider waiting until the Church actually moves to the new URL? The ComeUntoChrist changes are fine.

Hi, I apologize if my "Edit Summary" was poorly worded. However, all of the links are current and correct, as well as, tested. I did not add any dead or inactive links. However, several of the links I updated were already re-directing to other pages or resulting in dead links. At least one of these seemed to be a link to a video that is no longer there, so the ref is not technically fixed. I only removed the dead link, but couldn't find the video yet.


 * Hello, Zincaia. I wanted to clear up a misunderstanding regarding the intent of my recent revert of your edits to the page in question here. In over a decade of experience here on Wikipedia, where a majority of my focus has been on articles relating to the Church, I have become known and respected for always exercizing good faith in the edits I make. I apologize if you somehow got the impression that my last revert of your edits was personal: it was not meant to be. At the time I reverted your edit in question, the change had not yet been made official, and the churchofjesuschrist URL would have automatically redirected to lds.org, which was my reason for reverting the change at that time. I became aware of the change to the new URL being official earlier today, so I have no objections now whatsoever to those being changed going forward. I hope that clears up my intentions. Sorry for any misunderstandings my revert may have caused. I bear you no ill will, and hope no offense is taken now that i have explained myself. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions. --Jgstokes (talk) 23:46, 3 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello, Jgstokes. Thank you for your help! Sorry for sounding irritated. You were right and I got ahead of myself.

No worries here. Glad to see there are no hard feelings. I have a few other suggestions, if I may offer them: Wikipedia has always recommended that comments on any page, whether one's own user page or any other talk page should be signed each time with four tildes. Conversations on such talk pages are easier to follow when they are properly signed by and attributed to those who make them. It's not a big issue here on your user page, but I wanted to mention that as another helpful hint, for what it may be worth. Also, I don't know how new you may be to editing here, but what I will do after posting this comment is copy over the complete set of tools I was given when I started to edit Wikipedia in 2007 or so. Hopefully those tools will be helpful to you going forward. Thanks again for all your great work. I was glad to see that this first step has been taken. --Jgstokes (talk) 00:14, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
