Thanks

Starting to get familiar with Wikipedia and it’s guidelines and wanted to thank you for it. I appreciate you always being here to help. Recently ActionHeroesAreReal started adding back UNSOURCED information to the article Badr Hari and I intervened. I reverted their changes because the user failed to cite a reliable source regarding the information they are putting out. You can check my response to the situation on their talk page, I hope they read Wikipedia:But it's true!. Articlread (talk) 01:35, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Articlread Good day. I saw and thank you. I have added a warning message on the talk page with links provided for citation. Learning to edit Wikipedia is sharp learning curve. I remember when I started, I have no idea how to edit or where to find info/guidlines until an experienced MMA editor sent me a welcome message on my talk page. After that, I started to read the guidelines few hours per day for months. You have over 1.5k main space edits and I believe you know some of the basic guidelines. If you want you can take WP:TWA 30 mins short program to understand the basic edit/guidelines. I find it very helpful as I took it years ago. The program system might not work well with mobile but it work well with laptop. If you find you have problem with laptop then I can send you the 13/14 guidelines to you. Thank you very much for your contribution and you are welcome to pop back here if you have any questions or needed any assistance for I am here to help. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 10:43, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

Cassiopeia you are welcome. There is an issue right now on this article (Vidyut Jammwal), the same user ActionHeroesAreReal is currently edit warring and is being disrespectful. Can you explain to me how to report this Disruptive user. Thanks. Articlread (talk) 13:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

How about you stop edit warring and removing sourced content? Do you also know that a martial artist is not necessarily a fighter, and therefore doesn’t need a “record”? You clearly know nothing about martial arts or fighting. ActionHeroesAreReal (talk) 14:09, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

I would also like to add that this user (OkayEiko) might be a sockpuppet. Cassiopeia your help will be greatly appreciated. Articlread (talk) 14:20, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

You cannot add a weak source promoting his film and say he is a martial artist. if you want to add something related to martial arts do it in the body of the article with a reliable source which states he practices said martial art per source ActionHeroesAreReal. Disrespectfulness and edit warring can get you banned on Wikipedia. you are new to this site and do not be emotional. learn from the ones with experience and always site a reliable source. Articlread (talk) 14:41, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

How about you stop edit warring and removing sourced content? Do you also know that a martial artist is not necessarily a fighter, and therefore doesn’t need a “record”? You clearly know nothing about martial arts or fighting. So stupid. ActionHeroesAreReal (talk) 17:22, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

newindianexpress isn't an reliable source at all. Untamed1910 (talk) 18:16, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

ActionHeroesAreReal you are overly emotional and you clearly are letting your feelings get in the way. Being disrespectful will get you blocked on Wikipedia. This is a site which works by adding reliable sources to the information you are putting out. Reliable sources and not just any source as you did on this article (Vidyut Jammwal). Not any martial art practitioner is a martial artist, martial artist is mainly put for real fighters who fought in competitions or have a reputable record to show for it and not just an actor who plays roles of a fighter in a film. Don't be emotional and attack other users on Wikipedia when you do not have a clue about your wrong doings. The totally useless revert you made on Jimmy Ellis (boxer) and the lack of civility you are showing is a proof that your feelings got hurt. Don’t be ego driven and immature, it is last thing a Wikipedia editor should be. Articlread (talk) 20:47, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

If you are not availible, please ping me and let me know that you are full. Radio bzzrt 01:59, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

RadioactiveradioWX Good day and thank you for interested in joining CVUA program. A editor needs to have at least 200 main space edit before they can join the program and currently you have a total of 24 edits and where you main space edit is 1 (La hora pico article). I strongly suggest you to talk a short WP:TWA program so you may understand the some basic Wikipedia guidelines. TWA program does not work with with mobile devices, it would better to work on the program on laptop. Once you have achieve over 200 main space edits and you are still interested to be part of the program then pop back here and let me know. Stay safe and best.

Question from Aliuola (07:43, 26 April 2024)

Hello, good day How can I add an article of mine? --Aliuola (talk) 07:43, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Aliuola Good day and thank you for the question. First of all for a article to be published in Wikipedia main space, the subject needs to pass Wikipedia notability guidlines. The subject needs to have significant coverage by independent, reliable sources where by the sources talk about the subject in lenght and in dept and not merely passing mentioned for verification. Pls read WP:Your first article for info and instructions. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 09:24, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
