Edit summary

Can you give an example of what I should put, I keep putting ce (copy edit) for the summaries. From User_talk:DareshMohan/Archive_5#September_2024 DareshMohan (talk) 09:45, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@DareshMohan: If I don't know what to say, I type "ce" as my edit summary. I'd think what you are doing now works. (Sorry for the late reply, haven't looked at my talk page in a while and may have missed the notification for this post.) Steel1943 (talk) 16:54, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hatnote question

Hi Steel1943,

I saw a hatnote you put on Transgender (talk) that the article used bare URLS that need cleanup. I went through the ~300-400 sources in the combined reflist and sourcelist and found and corrected 2 bare URLS. I replaced some primary sources with secondary sources, reformatted some references, and added a couple URLS to existing refs along the way.

I'm wondering if there was some other reason for this note or other concern that needs to be addressed. I know this article uses a mix of citation styles, and see that MOS recommends consistency within an article; adjusting that style could be a larger project for the page. Still, as far as I can tell, they are all pretty complete in their bibliographic information. Am I missing something?

@Malvoliox: I responded on Talk:Transgender#Bare URL hatnote/reference concerns where you started an identical discussion. (Also, for what it's worth, what I placed on the top of the article was not a hatnote, so it took me a moment to realize what you were referring to.)

Sorry! What's the word for that kind of template? ~Malvoliox (talk | contribs) 19:04, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Malvoliox: Per Wikipedia:Template index/Cleanup, there are a few names for it, but the one I see the most often on other pages "cleanup tag". Steel1943 (talk) 21:09, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Sorry to clutter your talk page, I appreciate your helping me understand. ~Malvoliox (talk | contribs) 21:09, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Malvoliox: No worries. Glad to help. Steel1943 (talk) 21:10, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Should this be relisted? Plant🌱man (talk) 23:56, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It may be, it may not be. For what I'm looking at, an administrator might be able to close this to a status I cannot, but I'm not sure. Steel1943 (talk) 21:05, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, well thanks for the help anyway. Plant🌱man (talk) 22:07, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Plantman: Thanks for helping out at RfD. 😀 Steel1943 (talk) 07:16, 18 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure, Steel! Plant🌱man (talk) 07:17, 18 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Ponyo: May want to consider Adityanetclues as well then. I was going to also mention Shifon Eggs, but they have already been blocked. Steel1943 (talk) 22:59, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I saw that account and was going to let it go as abandoned, but changed my mind.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 23:06, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a plan. In response, I tagged the user page. Steel1943 (talk) 23:09, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
