Soccer suggestions

[edit]

Hey there, I've noticed your name pop up in my watchlist a few times lately. Some of your edits seem kind of redundant or unnecessary—but I'm just one person, so take these merely as suggestions. While "professional" is appropriate for the first sentence of an article, it tends not to be included ([1]) in short descriptions for the sake of brevity. Similarly, there is generally no need to put an article in a category ([2]) when it is already in its subcategory tree (players is in athletes is in alumni—there is an argument that graduates should be marked differently from student-athletes who didn't graduate, but that happens not to be how categories are used in practice) (and there is an exception for categories labeled non-diffusing). Thanks however for updating ([3]) things like Championship info! Hameltion (talk | contribs) 21:37, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

November 2023

[edit]

Information icon Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Boy Meets Boy (novel), please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you.

CS1 error on Bryan Collier

[edit]

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Bryan Collier, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

  • A "bare URL and missing title" error. References show this error when they do not have a title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 16:05, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Vashti Harrison, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages BA and MFA. 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.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 17:53, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Short descriptions

[edit]

I saw you're adding the authors to the short descriptions of books. This is - as your ongoing work shows - a change from current practice and one that I'm not sure meets the goals/priorities laid out at WP:Short description. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 16:28, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, WP:SHORTDESC explicitly states under "Examples":
  • Publication: "[year] [type of publication] by [author or director]" (Examples: "1983 novel by John Irving", "2017 film by Jordan Peele")
I'm still a fairly new editor, so if I may ask, what was the recommended format for short descriptions without adding the author? RockRiverTree (talk) 20:41, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On 4 November 2024, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article Paul Stephenson (civil rights campaigner), which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. Schwede66 23:24, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
