[edit]Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.
The edit summary field looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! — Ixtal ( T / C ) ⁂ Non nobis solum. 22:07, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
The article has been assessed as Stub-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. It is commonplace for new articles to start out as stubs and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

.Thanks again, and happy editing!
Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 03:54, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Disambiguation link notification for August 16
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited LXIV Legislature of the Mexican Congress, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Chihuahua and Hidalgo. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Seat figures
[edit]Re this edit, how come the seat figures in the article were so wrong? Where were they sourced to, and where are the new ones sourced to? The source for the seat figures really needs to be added to the table. Cheers, Number 57 01:15, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- The first figures were what various news outlets reported soon after the final vote counts were released, with the news outlets calculating the PR seats. In retrospect, these calculations should have never been added to the article, and the seats should have stayed vacant until the official INE document was released. The recent edit uses the official PR draft document that the INE has approved. Should have also added the source for the edit yesterday, my bad. I have added this to the article.

Quick question
[edit]Hi, I saw you removed a translated title for a source I added and now I wonder—and for further reference for me—if translated titles are not needed for sources. Regards, EOZyo (мѕğ) 21:43, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- If I'm not mistaken (and did research on Wikipedia's rules), Wikipedia doesn't mention anything about translating article titles (Also double checked a lot of articles and they did not translate titles). However, Wikipedia does say to prefer English sources when available. EchoLuminary (talk) 22:03, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- I guess that most people simply ignore the translate_title parameter when adding a source because, albeit not consistently, I have seen it being used. By the way, watch out for sources linking to california18.com website, it seems to be spam—as that website is an Uzbek gambling site. Regards, EOZyo (мѕğ) 23:52, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the warning! Did see it used and thought "never seen this site before" but didn't look into it further. EchoLuminary (talk) 00:54, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, the same here. It seems to have been active at some point, but the domain name was not renewed and now belongs to that Uzbek gambling site—as several pages from it can still be found archived on the Wayback Machine. Nevertheless, even if it would be still active, it would not seem like a very trustworthy or 'renown' website, at least not to me ;) EOZyo (мѕğ) 01:58, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Standard Notice: Syrian Civil War
[edit]This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in the Syrian Civil War and ISIL. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor. |
As a note, per these community-authorized general sanctions, there is a one-revert rule in place for all articles related to the Syrian Civil War and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, broadly construed. This means that an editor in this area may make no more than one revert per article per 24 hour period, unless an obvious exception applies. Please let me know if you have any questions about this. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:36, 8 December 2024 (UTC)
