Question from Sean J. Prescott (11:53, 23 October 2024)

Hello, how do I create a citation? --Sean J. Prescott (talk) 11:53, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Sean J. Prescott Good day! When citing web sources on Wikipedia, it's best to use Template:Citeweb, and for books, use Template:Citebook. You can also enable the Wikipedia:VisualEditor to add citations easily to articles. With VisualEditor, simply copy and paste the URL into the citation box and click "create." However, if the author's name isn't in the usual place (typically the top left corner of the article), VisualEditor might not capture it, and you'll need to add it manually.
I recommend going through WP:TWA (The Wikipedia Adventure) and exploring the tutorial sections of the "Welcome message", which can be found in the top left corner of your Talk page. This will help you get familiar with fundamental guidelines and helpful instructions.
Feel free to ask if you have any further questions! Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 22:12, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Important: Please update user script installation

Hi there, you currently have a user script installed from Anne drew Andrew and Drew. Several weeks ago, I changed my username to Anne drew, and unfortunately, due to an issue with script redirects, the scripts you have installed under my old username no longer function.

To fix this, please update your JavaScript pages (Special:MyPage/common.js or Special:MyPage/skin.js) by replacing all instances of Anne drew Andrew and Drew with Anne drew.

If any of this is unclear, please ping Anne drew for help. I apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding!

Thanks – Anne drew

Anne drew Good day and thank you for informing the above. I could not able to save the changes (your user name) on my common.js as there is not button on the page for me to save the edit (It has been happening on other pages for at least a 6 weeks now which I presume there were some changes editing page by some script or format - I dont know but it has been difficult for me at time to edit). Could you pls do it of the changes in my common.js? Thanks in advance. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 23:31, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
Hey Cassiopeia, unfortunately I can't edit your JavaScript pages for security reasons. That will require an interface administrator if you are unable to do so. I can't explain the issue you're having with the save button - perhaps try asking at WP:VPT.
I will request help from an interface administrator to update your JavaScript page below:
Could you please update Cassiopeia's JavaScript page by replacing every instance of Anne drew Andrew and Drew with Anne drew? Much appreciated – Anne drew 01:05, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
Anne drew I have tried to replace the name above but as I mentioned before, there is not save/publish button anywhere for me to click. I will seek interface administrator for help. Thank you for responding so quickly. Stay safe and have good weekend. Cassiopeia talk 01:09, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

CVUA

Hi there @Cassiopeia! I'm a fairly new editor active in recent changes patrol who wishes to learn more about counter vandalism in CVUA. If you are still accepting new students I would be excited to have you as my trainer. VolatileAnomaly (talk) 22:08, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

VolatileAnomaly Good day. Thank you for interested in joining CVUA. Please note that the program do require you some of your free time to read the material provided and work on the assignment. I suggest to complete WP:TWA (90mins) program first to familiar yourself withsome of the fundamental guidelines first. Once you have done that, come back to my talk page and I will set up the program for you. There is no time frame to complete the program but most participants completed the program in 3 months. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 01:40, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
VolatileAnomaly, Good day. I saw you have completed the TWA program. Well-done. If you still want to join the CVUA program, then pls let me know. (BTW, how long it took you to complete the TWA program?). Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 22:00, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
Hi Cassiopeia, it took me around an hour to complete TWA. If you're still available I'm definitely interested in joining CVUA. Didn't know if I was supposed to edit the archives like this, so I made a new post on the current talk page just in case. Thank you so much! VolatileAnomaly (talk) 23:19, 3 November 2024 (UTC)


Stosseled

I'm afraid I don't have time, but the user who's gone on the offensive re Sherdog looks to be to be sleeper account of a banned user sockpuppet. I will have a look through previous banned editors who have done the same thing and try to find a pattern but I won't have time for ANI etc. NEDOCHAN (talk) 17:30, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Question from Bosula (10:28, 30 October 2024)

Hello Casseiopia, I have worked on the page "benzoylurea" and made major re-edits. A user raised a dispute, and there was some to and fro on the talk page of "benzoylurea". Now he has stopped responding (although he is still making other edits) but the page is still in dispute. I believe he is serious and not mischievous. Should I write on his talk page, or just delete his "dispute" and continue as I see fit? --Bosula (talk) 10:28, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

Bosula Good day. The editor to whom you were talking to is an admin in Wikipedia who teaches in university and I presume in chemistry. I think they might have forgotten of the discussion or they are still doing some searches of the topic in discussion. You need to ping them so they could receive a notification of your message and I am sure they will reply. Use {{ping|DMacks}} or you can substitute the word "ping" to "U" or "reply to" at the beginning of the message. Let me know if anything else I could help. Cassiopeia talk 20:21, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
Hello Casseiopia, somehow I did not manage to ping, so I wrote a sentence in their talk page, which is hopefully much the same thing, Thanks Bosula (talk) 11:33, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

CVU Academy Enrollment

Hi Cassiopeia, I am interested in joining the Counter Vandalism Unit Academy traineeship under your mentorship. I completed my NPP School training and assessment successfully just yesterday, and I believe that gaining skills in countering vandalism will greatly improve my effectiveness as a new page patroller in the near future (my application is pending at NPP request page). Charlie (talk) 06:40, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

CharlieMehta Good day. Thank you for interested in joining CVUA. Please note that the program do require you some of your free time to read the material provided and work on the assignment. I guess you would be familiar since you have done the NPPS program. There is no time frame to complete the program but most participants completed the program in 3 months. Let me know if you still want to join the program after reading the after and I will set up the program for you. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 01:35, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
@Cassiopeia Thank you for the briefing. I am fully prepared to commit to the CVU training and am in no hurry to finish it. Please consider this my formal confirmation of readiness to enroll in your program. :::Charlie (talk) 02:52, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
CharlieMehta I have set up the program for you. Please read the "communication section" at the bottom of the assignment prior answer your question. Ping me when you have done with the assignment at the "communication section". Welcome to CVUA. Cassiopeia talk 05:38, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
@Cassiopeia Thank you for setting up the program! I will review the communication section and complete the assignment, then I will ping you when I am done, as instructed. Charlie (talk) 06:08, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Ilia Topuria's nationality

Hello Cassiopeia, I would like to adress the subject of Ilia Topuria's nationality, and that he should be listed as Spanish, specially in the page List of current UFC fighters, since he currently only has Spanish citizenship due to Georgian laws regarding nationalities, which can also be backed up with the following links:

https://www.elespanol.com/deportes/otros-deportes/20240305/gobierno-concede-nacionalidad-espanola-ilia-topuria/837666430_0.html

https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/ufc/ilia-topuria-paso-recuperar-nacionalidad-99693367 https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/ufc/oficial-ilia-topuria-espanol-99042250

https://as.com/masdeporte/polideportivo/ilia-topuria-ya-es-espanol-n/

https://www.marca.com/combates-ufc/2024/03/05/65e70986ca4741022b8b459d.html

https://www.20minutos.es/deportes/noticia/5228679/0/ilia-topruia-nacionalidad-georgia-espanola/

I think that, at the very least, he should be listed with both nationalities, since Topuria himself declared he represents both Spain and Georgia.

Thanks for your attention. Alberto González Seguí (talk) 11:39, 2 November 2024 (UTC)


Alberto González Seguí Good day. If you read the notes/key section at the very top of List of current UFC fighters on item 7 "The flags listed in these tables are in accordance with the Sherdog's website and may not fully or accurately represent the full citizenship of the peoples listed." The flag of Toupria was changed on Sherdog recently, so we change to ESP. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 06:01, 3 November 2024 (UTC)

Question from Coconut0330 (22:16, 2 November 2024)

Hello there what are some huge pages available to regular users and not higher ranks like admins or mods so thousands of people can view the edits I did on the page? --Coconut0330 (talk) 22:16, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

User:Coconut0330 Good day. All pages/articles in Wikipedia can be viewed by anyone in the world as long as they can accessed to English Wikipedia. Let me know if you have any questions. Cassiopeia talk 22:24, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Like example many big pages on wikipedia like example pages like Donald Trump and Joe Biden are locked pages what are some large and popular pages that are not locked are can be edited by a editor and not an admin or mod. Coconut0330 (talk) 23:47, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
Coconut0330 Pages or articles that are protected (locked) are restricted to certain editors with specific user permissions. This measure is typically applied to pages that have experienced frequent vandalism or disruptive edits in the past. Cassiopeia talk 00:44, 3 November 2024 (UTC)
