Altered speedy deletion rationale: User:Aaduodu/sandbox

Hello LilianaUwU, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I deleted User:Aaduodu/sandbox, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided. The speedy deletion criteria are extremely narrow and specific, and the process is more effective if the correct criterion is used. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 00:59, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

@JarrahTree A website called SMH cannot be a reliable source. No worries, I found something more reliable. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 10:50, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
I have no idea what part of this planet you are currently inhabiting, but anyone from Sydney would ask you to wash your mouth out for sure... SMH is more notable than a lot more of what is found in wikipedia... some would say 7news is hardly a reliable source either, specially a 9 enthusiast... JarrahTree 10:53, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
@JarrahTree I'm literally from the other end of the planet, so yeah, I can't tell. In any case, there's more sources than just SMH and 7news now. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 10:54, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
maybe a quebecois should eat the trout rather then have it placed anywhere strategic... - well done, and good catch first off, but hey its now out of one those things well out of mere mortal hands - the page will be infested well beyond our capacities to comprehend methinks JarrahTree 10:58, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

ANI notice

Just a nudge

Hi LilianaUwU. Thanks for your work dealing with the current disruption at History of Italy. This is just a friendly nudge about your comment on the article talk page. Perhaps the tone you've struck is not especially helpful? The article is likely to be protected given the obvious disruption, so all a comment like that stands to do is (potentially) gum up the works –– and give the disruptive IP another item to soapbox about. Just my 2¢ obviously. Please feel free to delete this message. Once again I do appreciate your work! Generalrelative (talk) 15:21, 25 April 2023 (UTC)

Your edit revert on Exenatide page

Hi LilianaUwU. Thanks for your edit reversion on Exenatide page. I am a medical doctor, and thought that the edit I made was quite obvious, so nobody would need a reference. Now apparently I was wrong. Here is the reference that was missing. You supposedly deleted my edit, because it was unreferenced. The reference is:

Tripathi KD. Essentials of Medical Pharmacology, Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers, New Delhi. 8th ed, 2018., page 293.

The reference is in my hand. Unfortunately I cannot find a link to this page on net. I can however send you a screenshot, if you so require

Many thanks and warm Regards Anil1956

Thanksfully, I found a screenshot of it on the web also. Please do visit

https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/Essentials_of_Medical_Pharmacology/FfG8AQAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=GLP-+1+itself+is+not+suitable+for+clinical+use+because&pg=PA273&printsec=frontcover

and look at the 2nd column. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anil1956 (talk • contribs)

Anil1956, thanks for telling me. I'm gonna be honest, I have no knowledge of the subject matter. If you want, you can insert the ref. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 06:40, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
Thanks. I tried doing it. But the moment I do it, it is almost immediately reverted back by somebody else. Look at the edit history please. I am afraid, someone might consider, I am trying to do it against your wishes.
Kindly advise. I am new to Wikipedia.
Thanks
Anil1956 Anil1956 (talk) 07:47, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
Hi! I've looked at your edit and it looks mostly fine to me. According to Liliana's revert you're putting this bit of information in the wrong section. You're inserting it in the introduction, which should only summarise the rest of the article. I would recommend placing your explanation along with the source you've provided in the mechanism of action section. Just reword it a little so it fits naturally there, add the source, and you're golden. (there's a CITE button in your editing screen, if you press that you can just insert your book's DOI/ISBN there and Wikipedia takes care of most of the work for you. If you then click on the citation and select "edit" you can insert the page number you found the information on.) Happy editing! --Licks-rocks (talk) 12:56, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
@Anil1956 (forgot the tag) --Licks-rocks (talk) 12:57, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
Your editing skills are amazing. May I ask a related question please? If you visit the Comedy page, you would find both "Further reading" as well as "Notations" at the bottom of the article. Both include items, which do not have any textual references [they do not refer to anything within the text]. Both are more or less "lists" of some additional references. But what I could not understand is the difference between the two categories. An extensive search of Wikipedia guidelines did not help me. I ask you because you are such an amazing knowledge, and I am a beginner. Thanks.
Anil1956 Anil1956 (talk) 05:46, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for the compliment, but Liliana is a lot more experienced and skilled than I could ever be! To answer your question: Hmm, based on the name of the section and the fact that large parts of the article are entirely reference-free (the numbered citations I showed you how to make are missing) I'm guessing that the "notations" section might be a leftover from someone using a different way of citing their sources than what Wikipedia automatically provides. If you look at the source code it's formatted as a list of cited references. I think nobody has bothered to convert them into numbered references yet because that would require figuring out what sentence is supposed to be citing which source, which is a lot of work. --Licks-rocks (talk) 11:17, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Okay Thanks.

Korenizatsiia

I noticed you removed a lot of content from Korenizatsiia. Why did you do that? It seems well sourced at first glance. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 05:57, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

@Immanuelle It's from a LTA known as the "bilateral relations troll". Indeed, it seems reasonably sourced. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 05:59, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
Do you have a page explaining their trolling? Sounds interesting. Immanuelle ❤️💚💙 (talk to the cutest Wikipedian) 06:03, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
@Immanuelle It's on ANI right now, with previous discussions linked from each other. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 06:05, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

Use of Template:No ping

Hi Liliana — I have to say that I think it was poor form of you to use {{no ping}} in this edit. In that edit, in a discussion which I had no reason to be (and indeed was not) following, you accused me of modifying a guideline without consensus. When you make an accusation like that against another editor, I think it's incumbent on you to let them know so that they have an opportunity to respond. Indeed, in this case, the accusation turned out to be false, as Locke Cole pointed out by linking to the discussion in a reply along with a ping to me. (It's also worth noting that, when I made the edit, I also linked to the discussion in my edit summary, so it was findable there.)

I know that tensions often run high in MOS:GENDERID discussions, and that sometimes edit summaries get missed, so I don't question your good faith. But in the future I'd just urge you to be a little more cautious when making accusations like that, and to provide the other editor the chance to respond when you do so in case there's something you missed.

I hope this doesn't come across as too harsh — I know you do a lot of really good work here relating to trans issues and I wish you all the best with all of it. – {{u|Sdkb}} talk 17:41, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

@Sdkb: respectfully, in the edit in question you linked to a talk page section, not a specific comment. If you're referring to the comments you made at 05:01, 8 October 2020 (UTC) and 08:17, 14 October 2020 (UTC) (full archived discussion), it certainly explains why you felt it should have been added, however it doesn't actually change the fact that the addition itself was done without consensus. Your comment on 14 October in particular is a pretty textbook application of WP:BOLD in my view. The preceding RfC's proposal did not include language restricting it to living persons only, and Loki's proposed alternative restricted the living qualifier to the narrow point surrounding BLPPRIVACY only. No other comments about living trans or non-binary people were made in that RfC. The version of the guideline that was changed on 1 October 2020 best reflected the closure of the RfC. Sideswipe9th (talk) 18:20, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
My perspective would be that, in the #Further refinement of wording section, I discussed with the closer of the preceding RfC what was at that time a side point of clarification on the preceding RfC. They invited others to comment, and no one besides me did, so I implemented a textbook silent consensus which went unchallenged.
I grant you that there can sometimes be some overlap between a bold edit and implementation of a silent consensus, but the point of my note above is that, if my editing is going to be criticized, I deserve to have the opportunity to see the criticism and offer my own perspective. Using {{No ping}} denies that opportunity. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 18:52, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
@Sdkb Oh, right. I wanted to ping you in the discussion (and had originally intended to do so), but with how used I am with the Discord way of pinging (where it's frowned upon), I wasn't sure whether it was a good idea, hence why I used {{no ping}}. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 19:39, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
Ah, that makes sense. All good! Cheers, {{u|Sdkb}} talk 19:42, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Your signature, minimum contrast

Hi User:LilianaUwU,

I’m afraid that I find your signature (LilianaUwU) visually disturbing. It has below standard contrast, and the thin font choice makes it worse. The effect is a shimmering appearance-disappearance continuing transition.

Would you please review WP:SIGAPP. As a matter of standard accessibility, please use a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1.

Sorry to be a bother.

—SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:17, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

@SmokeyJoe: Better? LilianaUwU (talk / contribs) 04:25, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
Without checking on a contrast calculator, much better thank you.
While I’m here, I think Liliana is a very nice name, but what does “UwU” mean? SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:34, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
@SmokeyJoe: From our very own article on uwu: uwu, also stylized as UwU, is an emoticon representing a cute face. The u characters represent closed eyes, while the w represents a mouth. It is used to express various warm, happy, or affectionate feelings. LilianaUwU (talk / contribs) 04:47, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
According to Snook's calculator it's still not colour-compliant, but I do agree that it looks a bit more readable. I'm wondering if the team at WikiProject Accessibility can help? PS. if those colours represent what I believe them to, I think that's rather awesome. :) Patient Zerotalk 21:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
she has a trans flag on top of this page, it likely represents what you believe them to 💜  melecie  talk - 22:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
Ah, I didn’t notice that before! Yes, that’s precisely what I thought it was a reference to. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I say that’s jolly good, and it’s great to see more Wikipedians be open about it - I feel that wasn’t really the case when I first started editing here. :) Patient Zerotalk 23:00, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
Uh huh, that's a transgender signature. LilianaUwU (talk / contribs) 00:42, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

Love your talk page

Okay, this may be strange, but I just love your talk page. I love the trans flag-line, your comments and the category 'Wikipedians with red-linked categories on their user talk page'-joke. That's all, just stopped by to tell you this. Laurier (xe or they) (talk) 11:13, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Request to change the title of the article from "Romani people in Romania" to "Roma in Romania"

Hello, you didn't respond to my reply. Roma is a noun, Romani is an adjective, gramatically correct is Roma.
Romani is the feminine singular adjective form of Rom, singular masculine form. Gramatically correct as a noun, in plural form is Roma, not Romani.
The "Roma" name is the most formal use that the World Roma Congress decided back in 1971 by the Roma leaders themselves.  The most used formal plural form in most countries is Roma, not Romani. Here is the word Roma used in formal contexts: European Roma Rights Centre, Decade of Roma Inclusion,  Contact Point for Roma and Sinti Issues etc.
Also, the title of the wikipedia page "Romani people" should be changed to Roma (people), similar to how "Doma (caste)" is: Doma (caste).
Can you please help me with changing the title of the wikipedia page "Romani people" as well? Thank you in advance.

Ninhursag3 (talk) 18:08, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

I noticed that the articles mostly use Romani, maybe this has something to do with MOS:VAR in that subject area? The user of this userpage has only 17 edits on articles on Romani-people-related content. You might want to ask some of these (who helped at the start of the articles):
I hope you have a great week . Cordial salutations , 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 20:26, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
Hello! Ninhursag3 is right, as always from my experience with her. I trust her, her knowledge, and research. She has tried to make a series of valuable contributions on the German Wikipedia as well. I wish her all the best and perhaps you could strongly consider what she wrote. All the best! Rosenborg BK Fan (talk) 21:02, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
Welp, we'll have to change about 10 article names and rewrite the Romani (people) one. 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 21:04, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
I will change 10 articles and even more than 10 if you want, I don't want to bother or take anyone's time. I will change from Romani people to Roma, that will be the only change. When it's "Romani language" I will leave it as it is. Ninhursag3 (talk) 00:19, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
I partially agree with the proposal, I could start the discussions on some of the pages and notify Nighursag3 to do the rest. I can help out with anything if needed. :) 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 21:09, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
@Ninhursag3: 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 21:10, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
Thank you so much, hugs ^^ I will change different articles from "Romani" to "Roma" but I will leave "Romani language" as it is. Ninhursag3 (talk) 00:21, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
@Ninhursag3 @Rosenborg BK Fan @多多123 If you find it best to use "Roma" instead of "Romani people", then that's fine with me. I only reverted the move because it seemed like it had not been discussed before, and now it looks like it has been discussed plenty. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 00:23, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Okay, so now I can change it or will you change it? If I have to do it, I will do it tomorrow, it's very late at night. So it's okay to add "people" in a parenthesis to Roma as in "Roma (people)" as to not be confused with Rome (ancient city) and be similar in having a parenthesis like "Doma (caste)"? Ninhursag3 (talk) 00:44, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
@Ninhursag3 I recommend starting a requested move discussion, preferably on Talk:Romani people, as it seems like something that needs to be discussed in a non-user talk page space. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 01:25, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Best of luck and happy editing here on Wikipedia! Rosenborg BK Fan (talk) 05:53, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
P.S.: Also, happy birthday, Liliana! All the best and happy editing here on Wikipedia as well! Rosenborg BK Fan (talk) 05:55, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
