Question from IAmMoonknight (13:39, 28 December 2024)

Hello! I want to contribute to the Dubai pages on the site but I dont know how to get started. What are the suggested things to include? --IAmMoonknight (talk) 13:39, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi and welcome, @IAmMoonknight. I've put some links on your talk page to help you get started. One of the most important things to keep in mind is that Wikipedia articles should summarize what reliable independent sources have said about a topic. The WP:Task center offers ideas on areas where you can contribute while you learn how to edit. Hope that helps! Schazjmd (talk) 13:47, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Question from Adhvik Sharma (08:41, 30 December 2024)

Hi and welcome, @Adhvik Sharma. The reliable sources guideline explains the types of sources we can use for articles, as well as which types of sources to avoid. Please take some time to read that, then feel free to ask me if you have more questions. I've also put some links on your talk page to help you get started.

Re: Amy Wax

Hello Schazjmd, This is to let you know that one of your recent edit at Amy Wax caused a citation error.

Do not add invalid url and use preview before saving your edit. Happy editing.––kemel49^{(connect)(contri)} 11:52, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the repair, looks like I typed "c" when trying to ctrl+C. Schazjmd (talk) 13:46, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Why you revert

I got the source from the book "Free as in Freedom". Gnu779 (talk) 13:07, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

@Gnu779, as I said in my edit summary, you put information in the infobox that isn't reflected/sourced in body, plus the infobox instructions for parents say "include only if they are independently notable or particularly relevant". Schazjmd (talk) 14:04, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

But it was an accident I forgot to add a citation. Gnu779 (talk) 14:06, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

@Gnu779, you could add his parents' names to the Personal life section in the article with a citation to your source. They don't belong in the infobox though. Schazjmd (talk) 14:11, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Question from Cabdicaziizziciid on Talk:Hack job (14:57, 19 January 2025)

Hi

 I want to recover my Facebook account that was hacked. How can I recover it easily? --Cabdicaziizziciid (talk) 14:57, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi and welcome, @Cabdicaziizziciid. You would have to pursue that through the Facebook site. Wikipedia has nothing to do with Facebook. Schazjmd (talk) 14:59, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

I don't understand anything, please explain, thank you.

I don't understand anything, please clarify, thank you. Cabdicaziizziciid (talk) 15:08, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Question from Isupporttheconfederacy (11:13, 22 January 2025)

greetings and salutations good sir it has come to my attention that the online encyclopedia more commonly known as wikipedia is not skibidi or sigma or ohio enough I will solve these problems by making every article include the word skibidi at least 1111111111111111111111111111111111111121212121 times good day --Isupporttheconfederacy (talk) 11:13, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

Question: Removed Update

Hello, you removed an update I made to the "Patriotic Millionaires" page, which I believe was a mistake. I added 1 descriptive word, "hypocrites" when describing this group. I added this after reading an article about this group of ultra-rich people behind "Patriotic Millionaires", who self-describe themselves as wealthy Americans who leverage their influence to affect politics stated that ultra rich should stop meddling in democracy (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/01/22/super-rich-must-stop-meddling-in-democracy-disney-heiress/). Can you please add this back? 47.150.84.191 (talk) 00:04, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

No, unless you have reliable sources that regularly characterize the group as "hypocritical", it is not an appropriate label for the article. Schazjmd (talk) 00:14, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your feedback, Schazjmd.

The group's actions directly contradict their stated goal. The Disney heiress calls for the "super-rich" to stop meddling in democracy, yet she supports a group—Patriotic Millionaires—that promotes the use of wealth and influence to shape economic policy. This is a clear contradiction: while advocating against wealthy influence in politics, the group actively engages in it. This behavior fits the definition of hypocrisy—claiming one thing while doing the opposite. The group’s actions undermine the very democratic process they claim to want to protect. Therefore, labeling them as hypocritical is not only appropriate but also necessary to reflect this irony. 47.150.84.191 (talk) 00:21, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Articles summarize what reliable sources say about a subject. An editor's opinion doesn't belong in the article. Schazjmd (talk) 00:28, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

I do want to thank you, though, for raising the issue for discussion rather than edit-warring. It's refreshing. Schazjmd (talk) 00:28, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

The contradiction between the heiress's call for the "super-rich" to stop meddling in democracy and her involvement in a group that uses wealth to influence policy is a clear example of hypocrisy. This isn’t just an opinion, but an observable contradiction that should be noted for accuracy.

By not addressing this, the article risks reflecting a left-leaning bias, which Wikipedia has been criticized for recently. It's important to highlight this contradiction to ensure the article is balanced and reflects all relevant aspects of the group’s actions. 47.150.84.191 (talk) 00:39, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

You can try starting a discussion at Talk:Patriotic Millionaires Maybe other editors will agree with you and you'll get a consensus to include it. Schazjmd (talk) 02:02, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Question from LennoxM14 (17:58, 23 January 2025)

What articles do you think I should edit? --LennoxM14 (talk) 17:58, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi and welcome, @LennoxM14! I'll put some links on User talk:LennoxM14 to help you get started. I think it's helpful to peruse the items at the Wikipedia:Task Center so you can identify the types of editing you might enjoy. Let me know if you have more questions. Schazjmd (talk) 18:04, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Thank you so much for fixing some of my edits I get a bit carried away at times as a beginner so thanks!

Hello

Hello, how are you? Thanks for removing the redundant information you added to the "Australia" article. Thank you. Happy editing! (VVWiki8 (talk) 14:28, 26 January 2025 (UTC))

I think you mean removing the redundant information that you added; you're welcome. Please read articles carefully before adding content to be sure that the information isn't already there. Schazjmd (talk) 14:33, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Yes, I mean that. I will do as you say. Thanks for the guide. We wish Wikipedia happy and successful editing! Thanks again. Happy editing! (VVWiki8 (talk) 14:42, 26 January 2025 (UTC))

Re: Atal Innovation Mission

Hi User:Schazjmd, just wanted to thank you for creating the article's talk page! I wanted to respond on Wikipedia:Teahouse itself; however, it appears that it is extended-protected, hence, I cannot reply there.

I understand contentious/disruptive editing and/or vandalism is the reason behind this; however, the fact that it hampers the ability of new editors to make constructive edits and prevents them from posing inquiries is a major deterrence. I hope the editors behind the update understand that an alternative solution would be appreciated.

Regardless, I'm obliged, User:Schazjmd! Regards, 2311173DasguptaRajdeep (talk) 16:09, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

You're welcome, @2311173DasguptaRajdeep. Unfortunately, Teahouse had to be protected for 12 hours due to persistent problems with a long-term abuser. If you have questions as you're editing, Wikipedia:Help desk is another option, and you're welcome to ask here as well. Cheers! Schazjmd (talk) 16:20, 26 January 2025 (UTC)
