Your edits in history templates

[edit]

Hallo there, you are reverting edits of historic maps to history templates that have previously stood there, or where there was nothing else before. Feel free to improve but not to disrupt. Gryffindor (talk) 23:05, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've already engaged on some of them,..... Glad to see you stopped the mass changing all over. Moxy🍁 23:09, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Automatic translation

[edit]

Hello @Moxy, some contributions you have made are possibly machine translations, which is why they have been modified or marked with the template. If no improvements are made to the article, it may be deleted.

If, despite all this information, you still have any questions, feel free to leave a message on [[User talk:|my talk page]]. Don't be discouraged by this little incident. Your contributions are very important to Wikipedia. 187.109.170.105 (talk) 03:13, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Think you got the wrong users....I don't do any sort of translation work. Moxy🍁 03:16, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

New message to Moxy

[edit]

It's not my default interpretation of your edit summary on Coat of arms of Canada, but I wanted to make explicit that the IP (who touched off my noticing) isn't me, if just because I wanted to make clear I'm not interested in annoying you any further about the issue if no one else is interested. As always, I wish I had done things a bit more cleanly there, sorry. Cheers, hope you're well. Remsense ‥  04:21, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My assumption it's been the same IP doing the same thing for some time not related to you at all. Moxy🍁 04:39, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Calgary, largest…

[edit]

You have not have figured this out yet, but you are pandering to blocked UrbanNerd. Hwy43 (talk) 04:45, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm unaware of who the IP is...but just cuz they're a blocked user doesn't mean they're not right. Do you think we should say the biggest the best and largest four times in the first sentence? Moxy🍁 04:51, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn’t say best at all. You invented that. All four instances are facts. There are times I too am in agreement with points UrbanNerd makes, but the way he goes about it is unacceptable. In this case the second of fourth has no business in the lead. Elsewhere, Houston has "most populous" in five locations in its lead. This is the first place I looked. So three is satisfactory in comparison. I am going to sit back and watch for now to build the SPI case. The popcorn is popping. Hwy43 (talk) 05:08, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not about inventing things it has to do with fluff an expressions..... all these things should be mentioned but in the first few sentences just reads oddly. Had no clue this editor was still around. Why have they not created new accounts and hiding like User:Skookum1 and a a few others I'm aware of that have second and third accounts. I guess it has to do with approach User:Skookum1 no longer engages with people thus is a productive member. Moxy🍁 05:15, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I hear you on the fluff. I am seeing that the first paragraph is very brief, so I get the odd look. I have an idea how to fix it but will watch for a bit first. Would appreciate your support when I step in, if you agree. UrbanNerd gave up on creating new accounts because of all the SPIs. His MO is to IP-hop as it is easier to go undetected by sharp eyes. I don’t miss Skookum1, but appreciate his self-discipline to stay away. Hwy43 (talk) 05:31, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good I'll back you up when need be as your proposals usually make sense and are very logical. Moxy🍁 05:33, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Cheers, Hwy43 (talk) 05:36, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it should be deleted

[edit]

Brother no kidding the Antonio Riano Page shouldn't be deleted he has won 2 medals in the Olympics one gold one silver and he is very famous in Cuba (you'd know if you went there) also brother there is no point in deleting and withholding history MrVC25 (talk) 04:38, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You followed procedure .....thus safe for now. Moxy🍁 05:03, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What does this mean brother? MrVC25 (talk) 05:05, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
pls see WP:DEPROD Moxy🍁 05:07, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok thank you brother MrVC25 (talk) 05:13, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can tell Riano has not won two Olympic medals. That would show that he likely notable per WP:NOLYMPICS, but he has instead won two Pan American Games medals. That does not necessarily make him notable. See WP:ATHLETE. Meters (talk) 05:30, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Either way he completed in the 1980 summer Olympics as the wiki says with reference MrVC25 (talk) 05:38, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Either way? There's a big difference between claiming he won two Olympic medals and that he simply competed. Again, read WP:NOLYMPICS. Simply competing in the Olympics is not enough to show that the is notable. If he has received significant media coverage then provide some sources. Meters (talk) 06:04, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I did the correct procedure and objected end of story if you want to argue about it argue with the person who made the procedure that way MrVC25 (talk) 06:05, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Brother I didn't know you've been editing 20 years, respect MrVC25 (talk) 06:18, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
