Thanks
Hello,
Although we disagree in regards to the language of that article, I appreciate you attempting to help educate the confused editor who edited the page repeatedly. I hope the comments we said, plus the warning he received cause him to change his ways and not assume guilt before conviction. Thank you, TanRabbitry (talk) 02:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- @TanRabbitry Thank you! By the way, I appreciate the civility and good faith you've shown throughout our discussion. I can see you have a clear desire to have a productive discussion about the language in the article, even though we have different opinions. It can be hard to "keep cool" with contentious topics like these. Gottagotospace (talk) 02:28, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you again for being consistent in your position. This debate seems to be getting somewhat out of hand. TanRabbitry (talk) 00:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- @TanRabbitry I've mostly stepped back from the participation in the topic discussion over the past few days because honestly it got kinda grating to see all the chaos. Based on what I have seen from your conversations (including the ones people have deleted), you might want to consider stepping back from the topic for at least a few days in order to give everyone the chance to calm down a little.

RAVI's stage name and legal case
Hello, RAVI has stated in multiple interviews that his stage name is in all caps spelled as RAVI, not Ravi. Please also do not shorten the information on RAVI's ongoing legal case. People use Wikipedia to learn about his ongoing court case and his disabilities. This legal controversy is currently the most important topic about RAVI and it should not be cut from his page. Other public figures also have very detailed information on their pages, with no problems. This is not a violation of Wikipedia's policy, especially since RAVI's case is heading to the level of the supreme court, and is not yet fully resolved. Hyerinbear (talk) 12:48, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hello! Regarding the all caps thing, we don't use all caps when they merely serve a stylistic function (see MOS:ALLCAPS). Also, for the section about his ongoing legal case, I wasn't planning on cutting out significant details about the legal proceedings, but merely condensing some of the language about his disabilities. Like maybe I'd change it to something like "Ravi has talked about having [insert condition] before, including on [TV show name here][citation], [TV show name here][citation], and [TV show name here][citation]." I think that'd be better than each TV show getting an entire sentence of its own, since it makes it more readable. Thank you for expressing your concern, and I will try to be careful when editing his page. Gottagotospace (talk) 12:59, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for clarifying and understanding. RAVI's disabilities are important to his controversy, but since we can't post videos on wikipedia, we decided on the individual descriptions. Hyerinbear (talk) 15:11, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
Hockey
Thanks for reverting those instances of vandalism so quickly. I don't know if you watch hockey, but a series in the Stanley Cup playoffs just ended so we will have an influx of fans. I will try and stay on top of pages so I can protect them if need be but please ping me if you see something I missed. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 03:11, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- You're welcome! I don't watch hockey at all actually. I just happened to see the edit in my Recent Changes feed. But it's smart of you to stay on top of the hockey pages at a time like this! Gottagotospace (talk) 03:13, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
Ed Winters
Roughly 70-80% of the sources on the Ed Winters draft do not pass WP:RS. It's possible he may qualify for an article but the article needs to be entirely re-written with mostly new sourcing. Psychologist Guy (talk) 14:17, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- That's my plan! Gottagotospace (talk) 14:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Most of the sources are left over from the old version. Gottagotospace (talk) 14:35, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
Apology
I am sorry for my edits, in the words of Gottagotospace constituting vandalism, which was never my intention to do to the fine people of KCYS. What I said was fact, but I know realize it could have been potentially unnecessary. I'm sorry Gottagotospace. Goodedits123 (talk) 13:20, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the apology. You are more than welcome to stay and contribute constructively! That edit you made in the article about Eric Dick (lawyer) actually could be considered constructive; it just required a bit of a revised explanation and belonged in a different section. I can see someone potentially trimming back massive amounts of his article in the future to make the page sound less like an advertisement, so if your edit is removed in the future, that might be why.

Slate article
I'm a journalist who writes regularly about Wikipedia for Slate and other publications.
Reaching out to let you know that I mentioned your username and briefly quoted you in a piece about how Wikipedia is debating whether to describe Trump as a "convicted felon" on his Wikipedia article.
The Slate story is available at this link. Stephenbharrison (talk) 13:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep a closer eye on my userpage/Talk page for trolls making their way here after reading it. Gottagotospace (talk) 14:06, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
Notable pakistani christians
Hello, recently I added the name of Brig Dr. Helen Mary Roberts in the list of Notable Christians of the article christians in pakistan but you re-edited and removed her name.
Added it to the list of notable christians because she is the first christian lady army officer of AMC (Army Medical Corps) who was promoted to the rank of Brigadier. CaptRaven (talk) 16:37, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- @CaptRaven Yes, I left you a message on your Talk page about it. For your convenience, I will paste it here too:
- Hello. Your recent edit to Christianity in Pakistan appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.
- Do you have any further questions? Gottagotospace (talk) 23:34, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

edit
Hello, you undid my edit to Nick Jordan (artist) as I missed out on giving a reason for removing COI template. Apologies for that. All info on page is now factual and neutral, with sources. I am the subject, so declare my COI. But would you mind checking the page and ensuring it meets your guidelines and removing the COI template? Any help much appreciated. I wasn't originally aware of the COI guidelines but am now. Also, I was originally editing the page back in April to remove unnevcessary info, and it kept reverting to previous versions, as it flagged up copyright violation (from a University website which repeated the text on the original Wikipedia page), so I was going round in cicles and maneged to get my IP banned for a day or so! If any editors can look over it and ensure it's all now ok that would be very much appreciated. Many thanks. 84.92.55.233 (talk) 14:59, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- My apologies for the late reply. I took a couple weeks off from Wikipedia. Looks like someone already handled this! Gottagotospace (talk) 12:19, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
