March 2024

[edit]

Information icon Hi Dmhll! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Collegiate Aerial Robotics Demonstration that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Thank you. Yutah123 (talk) 05:33, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, thank you for clarifying. Dmhll (talk) 05:35, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Overlinking on 2024 in the United States

[edit]

Heya; thank you by the way for your contributions to 2024 in the United States, but something I have noticed is that a lot of your entries seem to overly link common words such as minivan, plagiarism, etc. Our Manual of Style says at MOS:OL (the entry for overlinking) that most common items that people would very likely understand should not be linked, such as basic objects, states, countries and nationalities, and most of the exceptions listed would not likely apply to 2024 in the US' entries. Please keep this in mind when you're writing. Again, thanks for your contributions! InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 14:29, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know! I was mostly copying from their entries in Portal:Current events, so any linking that was already there was kept the same. I'll make sure to pare down next time. Dmhll (talk) 17:05, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

[edit]

Hey Dmhll! Thank you again for the additions to 2024 in the US, but please make sure to leave edit summaries as a courtesy to the rest of us. Makes our lives a bit easier. Thanks (yet again)! InvadingInvader (userpage, talk) 19:42, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Portal:Current events/2024 August 10

[edit]

Just wanted to let you know - I reverted back to an earlier version of the school attack blurb, as the substantive edits to it were done by a non-XC user. That said, I do think the wording was a bit more concise/in line with the style guidelines the CE portal usually employs, so feel free to add it yourself if you think it's better.

August 19 current events portal

[edit]

Asking you since you’re arguably the most active CE portal editor - the Israel-Hezbollah blurbs were added by an IP, meaning they should’ve been reverted under ECR - that said, I’m not sure if I should remove them at this point, given they’ve remained stable in the few dozen edits since. What’s your opinion? The Kip (contribs) 21:20, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think some of it can be kept, especially if it involves deaths. In this case that would be "An Israeli soldier is killed and several others are injured.. etc." but I'm not sure if strikes to infrastructure is notable enough for the CE portal. Especially if it's just "Israeli strikes hit Hezbollah targets" etc. etc. What are your thoughts? Dmhll (talk) 03:00, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Better source request for File:February 14 Youth Coalition flag.gif

[edit]

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as the web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the direct/bare URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. — Ирука13 04:54, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

November 2024

[edit]

Information icon Hi Dmhll! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Portal:Current events/2024 November 8 that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word.

I have also noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences.

Overall, you can never go wrong by leaving the minor edit box unchecked and always using an edit summary that describes your changes. Thanks! Daniel Quinlan (talk) 18:24, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
