Problem with editing Vigilante (comics)
Hello, I saw an notification from you when you thanked me on edit of Constantine: City of Demons month ago and I appreciate that. But this time it's not about CCOD, but rather about article Vigilante (comics). Days ago, I went to edit, precisely, adding details of an original incarnation of him, Vincent Sobel from "Arrow" TV series. I finished writing on him, but few days later, an unknown user 216.67.23.156 began deleting those details about his appeareances in fifth and sixth season. I restored it few hours later, then 3 days later he once again deleted this. Additionally, I also began erasing maintenance templates which are from 2011, but to me they are outdated since no one found some source to put it and I think of it as redundant. It also includes details from section "Miscellaneous" about Batman Beyond comic book series (based on an animated series of the same name), when I wanted to put double brackets so that names of characters and the title of series become blue. What this user done to me before, I think that is considerably a violation and probably unjustified, even when I left a message to not touch it but he simply ignored it, simply being probably as an unreasonable nuts. Now there is to me big question: how to solve this problem and do you have some advice or solution about this? Should I restore it what I wrote before or make some shortenings about "Arrow" incarnation (like, "Throughout the fifth season, he begins to eliminate..." or "In the sixth season, Vigilante tries to kill..." etc.)? Is there any way to block his act? You can go to check in green line below "External links" and see what happened. I would appreciate your help, if you want. Thanks!

- Hi Khufd. You've put in a lot of time and effort writing up that summary! If you're having trouble with Wikipedia, then have you tried the Arrowverse Wiki] and DC Database? Their entire purpose is to expand fully on every aspect of these appearances, while Wikipedia is centred around notability – so it's notable that Vigilante appeared in Arrow, but as you say, it's not notable exactly what happened in every single episode – the article here on Wikipedia is just an overview, while the more detailed Arrowverse & DC wikis should go into as much detail as possible (though there's a lot still to cover over there – your work would be much appreciated!). You also mentioned that you removed the maintenance tags – this could also be why they reverted it as you say – again, everything has to be sourced here, so that readers can check up on what us editor have written – so the only times that you can remove a tag like that is if you've fixed the problem, or removed the entire content that has problems (and other editors are welcome to do this, so make sure you're adding sources etc., or your own additions might get tagged and removed!). I saw on your talk page that you've been warned about this a lot before, and are close to being blocked about this – that would be a great shame if you ended up being blocked, as I've seen that a lot of your edits are fixing problems with articles and making a positive contribution! Wikipedia's standards are high, but I'm 100% sure that if you set your mind to it you'll be able to make edits up to these high standards too. If you've got any more questions or want any advice then feel free to ask! ‑‑YodinT 12:55, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Insane, unnecessary size of Wikipedia page in general
Hi, I wanted to ask about of size of Wikipedia. Yesterday, I noticed accidentally on Ipad that Wikipedia page went to bizarly, abnormal downsized size. I thought it was some glitch, but I noticed more and more pages went that way. The Wikipedia has downsized forward so much that letters became too much big for reading and even the pages are completely chaotic and messy, almost difficult to read. Even the search option for searching is a bit clunky in that size. It's not just in Ipad, but also in my Iphone as well, completely chaotic and unreadeable, even for editing articles and for writing discussion page. I don't know if is also on desktop computer or laptop, I didn't checked, but if it is then honestly this is completely dishonorable for that problem which I can't solve it. Do you know what is the cause of this problem? It seems that probably comes from someone from Wikipedia community who decided that this downsizing the Wikipedia page in general becomes a standard, if I'm not wrong in that theory supposedly. I want to return to the normal size in Wikipedia as it was before! Khufd (talk) 21:45, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
