Lofty Chiltern

Hello and apologies for my revert of your edit on the above. I'm afraid I got you mixed-up with the IP:86.833.92, who has been constantly altering BBC series and BBC News articles without any sources - and has been blocked multiple times. Regards and apologies, David, David J Johnson (talk) 12:22, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

@David J Johnson: Oh, no worries. I did wonder whether it had been a mistake since you had thanked my edit before reverting it! All the best, Soaper1234 - talk 12:45, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Holby

Hello again, Thanks for the reversion. The only reason I deleted was that it was made without reference or source by a IP who has been blocked multiple times for that reason. Regards, David J Johnson (talk) 21:58, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

No worries about it! The IP address is obviously vandalising pages and you have done an excellent job at tackling their edits. I suppose it just happened to be that this once, they were fine to do so! :P All the best, Soaper1234 - talk 22:10, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

DYK for John Gaskell

On 19 January 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article John Gaskell, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/John Gaskell. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, John Gaskell), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

Thanks for your work on Jack Callahan

Hey Soaper1234, thanks so much for your cleanup on Jack Callahan! I will paraphrase those quotes ASAP so thanks for pointing that out. I am more running it for GA as it will point out the faults on the article so I can take it to its full potential as I want my first "proper article" on Wikipedia to be the best as it can be! This way I can go on to making more articles minus the mistakes. I only stated editing last year on Wikipedia so just bear with as I go through my teething stages! — Hatio93 Talk 07:15, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Hi Hatio93, no worries. I noticed how it had potential to be a great article but it just needed tidying up a bit. Like I stated, the article needs paraphrasing a lot as there were too many direct quotes, but we've all been there. Good luck for the future Soaper1234 - talk 19:53, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Babe Smith

Hello I noticed you changed Babe's car back to a Robin, its not a Robin, its a Rialto. The shape is obvious enough as to the model and even Annette Badland herself refers to it as a Rialto. Have a look at http://www.reliant.website/rialto_hist.shtml — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.96.178.118 (talk) 22:55, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

I reverted the section on Babe's car because it is all unsourced. I think that a section on Babe's car is a great idea - it would just need sourcing and development. Also, do you have a source that states that Badland refers to the car as a Rialto? Soaper1234 - talk 07:31, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Hey

Hey there. With the new selection of Holby infobox pics could we perhaps use more of the promotional image? I believe they look better as they show the character's work uniform. Not an entire image, just a portion like used in Oliver, Sahira, Eddi, Guy etc.Rain the 1 17:39, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Soaper1234. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 18:09, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

And also

Hi Soaper1234, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 18:12, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

User talk:Raintheone

I think it might be wise to remove or strike the part of your comment that encourages the IP of a known sockpuppet to possibly try and circumvent their block. I probably shouldn't have left my reply tbh, but I'm putting that down to not thinking straight while ill. - JuneGloom07 Talk 21:45, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

@JuneGloom07: I presume you mean the bit about creating their own article? If so, consider it removed. I didn't realise they were sockpuppet - my apologises. Soaper1234 - talk 06:14, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi Raintheone. That would be brilliant, thank you. I've been meaning to update his article, but haven't yet got round to it. I'll update my preferences now. By the way, I've really liked your new articles recently - nice to add some older characters. Soaper1234 - talk 18:07, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized).

Did you know what’d be interesting? You edit the Chicago franchise pages quite a bit… why not make articles for half of the motive characters on it? Especially the likes of Alvin, Connor, Jay, Sylvie, Boden, Ruzek, Trudy, Daniel, Will, Gabby or Maggie? Just an idea. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.235.124 (talk) 09:08, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I don't know if you have me mistaken for another user, but I haven't edited the Chicago franchise before. Therefore, I wouldn't be able to create any character pages. Soaper1234 - talk 15:17, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Thanks so much for moving that over, I had no idea I'd even created it in mainspace! And I made loads of edits since.... though I did wonder why at one point I got an error when trying to edit a section! That'll be why ;-) I'm so glad you noticed. — ᴀnemoneᴘroᴊecтors 10:29, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

@AnemoneProjectors: No worries. I'm glad I came across that then! Good idea for an article - there is loads out there in terms of sources and I've seen a fair bit of reception too! Soaper1234 - talk 10:31, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
Did you find it through my contributions or some other way? I know a lot of the regulars stalk my contribs but I'm happy that any errors I make get fixed (usually by you!). I should have thought about starting a draft for those episodes sooner, I'd probably have half the article already. But so far I've only watched the one episode (about to watch the next one now). I hope I have time to write this one! — ᴀnemoneᴘroᴊecтors 10:37, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
@AnemoneProjectors: Your talkpage is on my watchlist (so therefore, your main page is too) and you adding the draft popped up. I noticed it was a redlink so checked your recent contributions and saw that you had created the draft, but in mainspace and moved it. I think you'll enjoy the episodes - very EastEnders if I may say and Bonnie Langford is one to watch! Soaper1234 - talk 12:14, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
Excellent stuff, glad I added the red link then! I wasn't planning to start the draft straight away, but then I just typed it into the address bar. I would have probably clicked on the link to start it if I had done it in the future! — ᴀnemoneᴘroᴊecтors 12:28, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Shakil's funeral

Hi,

Just to let you know I've created this article in userspace about the EastEnders episode covering Shakil's funeral. Apparently the episode will make part of TV history as it's the first time something like this has been done! I would be grateful of any help :)--5 albert square (talk) 20:44, 23 June 2018 (UTC)

@5 albert square: Brilliant idea! You beat me to it as I had been thinking about creating one. More than happy to help you out :) Soaper1234 - talk 21:11, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, I heard somewhere this week that it will be a British television first because it changes the format that EastEnders is usually screened in because it will have input from real-life victims of knife crime. A few reliable sources have said it will be British TV history because no British soap has done this before. I don't remember any soap doing it before! I'm hoping it will be quite a big episode. I'm wondering if they will try and get every current regular cast member with the exception of Dot in it? One of the reliable sources showed Kat at the church which I was surprised at as Kat didn't really know Shakil. I hope Brooke Kinsella is in the episode but that's going to be weird as she played Kelly! Hard to believe it's 10 years since her brother was murdered.--5 albert square (talk) 21:54, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
@5 albert square: There are so many questions as to how they will do this! I think I read a tweet from Brooke Kinsella saying her father would appear in one segment. I'll try to find it and drop it into the draft. Soaper1234 - talk 10:26, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

I spent ages writing that out why does it matter people will know more now. Do u have OCD or something? Was it effecting ur life that it was there. Don’t bother sending me a like about “being friendly in Wikipedia” because u dont deserve my patience. I’ll be writing out those storylines again👍 Pdineen03 (talk) 19:38, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Also you version looks like it was written by a 5 year old. Like c’mon Pdineen03 (talk) 19:43, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi Pdineen03. Sorry that you feel like that. It is encouraged that plots are not lengthy and I believe the plot written by Raintheone was a lot less complex and easier on the eye too. I would also strongly disagree that the plot appears to be written by a 5 year old - I would even say that that is quite rude. Just a heads up, if the storylines return, they will likely be reverted. I'm more than happy to open a discussion about this on the talk page should you feel this is necessary. Thank you, Soaper1234 - talk 19:57, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Changing my edits

Please do not change my edits if you are uninformed. Mr Fitzgerald appeared as a one-off character, he does not deserve his own section (ESPECIALLY when characters who have appeared in multiple episode, like Tyler, are still in the "other" section. Also Evelyn appears before Vicky, so no idea why you vandalised that edit and placed Vicky first. Connorguy99 (talk) 20:12, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Connorguy99 - That's not how Wikipedia works. Nobody has "ownership" or "exclusivity" to article content, and you cannot tell other editors to stay away like this. If there's a dispute, you're expected to peacefully discuss them on the article's talk page and help them come to a consensus.

This user PURPOSEFULLY edited my work over a series of separate edits with the desire of PREVENTING me from reverting them easily. This was deliberate. Connorguy99 (talk)' —Preceding undated comment added 20:16, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Connorguy99: First of all, I'd like to make it clear that I don't appreciate being spoken to in such a rude manner. I haven't vandalised anything. A section had been created on Mr. Fitzgerald because there was enough sources. If you can find enough sources (for development/reception) for Tyler, he can get a section. He's only in others because nobody has created him a section. Please do not remove Mr. Fitzgerald from the list as he has enough development for a section. A reliable source is needed to say that Evelyn appears before Vicky. I will be reverting the recent edits on List of Coronation Street characters (2018) to the last safe revision. Please let me know if you have any other concerns, and thank you Oshwah for your input. Soaper1234 - talk 20:22, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I didn't mean to speak to you rudely but it isn't nice to find work disregarded with so little care, with excessive edits to prevent swift reverts. If you revert the edits, so will I and we will be caught in an edit war. Connorguy99 (talk) 20:24, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Connorguy99: Thank you. Obviously, I would like to avoid an edit war so I am prepared to explain my reasoning. I would appreciate it if you could explain your reasoning too. Mr. Fitzgerald is a section I created, so likewise I don't want to see work disregarded with so little care. He remains with a section because there is enough development to have a section. When looking at the revert you made, other changes included in your revert include the unexplained removal of sources and more development in the Evelyn Plummer section, and the addition of names in the lead which don't need adding. Without sounding rude (and let me know if you feel I do), I don't understand what work I am disregarding by reverting your edits. Soaper1234 - talk 20:31, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I have created a section in the talk page to discuss the matter. Connorguy99 (talk) 20:33, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I have responded there. Soaper1234 - talk 20:35, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Connorguy99: I've noticed that you have reverted my edits again without reason. These edits include expansion of Evelyn Plummer's character and Vicky being moved below Evelyn, per your instruction, as well as the section of Mr Fitzgerald. I don't appreciate my edits being labelled vandalism as well, so I would be more than appreciative if you could stop calling it vandalism. Soaper1234 - talk 20:38, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Connorguy99 - It's quite understandable to feel frustrated and perhaps upset after seeing changes you've made and the time you've put into those changes being reverted - trust me, I know :-). But you don't want to run at other editors with pitchforks and torches because of what happened. Usually, there's a reasonable explanation for this. And don't worry, all edits made to every page are saved in the page's history and can be retrieved and viewed at any time. I appreciate your follow-up and for explaining that you didn't mean to be rude to Soaper1234. I encourage you to simply keep in mind how your messages and words can come out and be translated by other users, to do your best to use words that translate to others as civil and welcoming where possible, and to step back and take a moment if you're frustrated or upset and to never respond or message other users while you're feeling angry - that's when uncivil and heated words come out and statements made that you'll probably wish you could take back later. It looks like you've both started a discussion on the article's talk page - excellent! Work with Soaper1234 and come to a positive consensus. Keep positive, work together, don't edit war, and things will work out in the end :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:39, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I have opened a discussion in the talk page, yet this user is still attempting to revert my edits. Connorguy99 (talk) 20:44, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
I have continued to revert your edits because you haven't given an explanation to why you continue to revert my edits and label them "vandalism". Soaper1234 - talk 20:45, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

This message serves as my official warning that your edits to this article constitute edit warring - please stop. I've also left the same warning here on Connorguy99's user talk page as well and in order to be fair and neutral party to you both. I won't template you, but please treat this as the same warning that I just left for him. Thanks :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 20:47, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your help Oshwah. I'm just struggling to explain the situation properly. Soaper1234 - talk 20:55, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Soaper1234 - No problem, and yeah I understand. I'm reading the discussion and you're doing your best to try and help the user. Let me know if you need my help with anything and I'll be happy to do so. Best - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:01, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Oshwah: Thank you, I really appreciate it. I've asked some other editors for their help in explaining the situation too. Soaper1234 - talk 21:05, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Soaper1234 - Perfect; that should definitely help. Again, please don't hesitate to message me if things go out of control or if you need my help with anything else. Best - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:07, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Oshwah: I'm hoping so. Thanks for your help again. I've added back some detail that was removed, but the detail is irrelevant to the current debate, so it shouldn't be a problem. Let me know if it is. Soaper1234 - talk 21:09, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Soaper1234 - Fine by me. As long as it's not edit warring, have at it. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:11, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Oshwah: Thank you. Thought I'd best double check and see :) Soaper1234 - talk 21:13, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Sure, I understand ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:14, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
@Oshwah: The user believes I have broken the conditions of the edit war. Would you be able to explain why I haven't? No worries if you'd prefer not. Soaper1234 - talk 21:17, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
You did break the conditions, but this user is clearly biased - that was obvious from the moment they gave you this kind warning while giving me a brash almost robotic response. Connorguy99 (talk) 21:31, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
You know FOR A FACT I am both against your edits regarding Evelyn/Vicky as well as your edits on MrFitzgerald. But keep breaking the truce. Connorguy99 (talk) 21:32, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Connorguy99 - Soaper1234's edit to the article was to different content and didn't seem to involve the content in dispute... ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:51, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
Connorguy99, Soaper1234 - To keep everyone honest and to stop the finger pointing, I've applied full protection to the article. Now you both can focus on the dispute at-hand and work together to resolve it :-). ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 21:54, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
The dispute was against the Mr Fitzgerald section and the Evelyn/Vicky placing. Connorguy99 (talk) 22:00, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

DYK nomination of Episode 1094

Hello! Your submission of Episode 1094 at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Yoninah (talk) 21:45, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. I hope you don't mind that I tweaked it a bit more to get rid of the repetition ("production team"..."produced"). Yoninah (talk) 22:09, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

DYK for Episode 1094

On 4 October 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Episode 1094, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that to create the fireball effect in episode 1094 of Casualty, the show's production team packed ten different explosions into one blast? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Episode 1094. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Episode 1094), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

@JuneGloom07: Wow - that's incredible. A very popular article, obviously! Hope you're keeping well. Soaper1234 - talk 20:49, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
I think they must post a bunch of recent DYK articles during the day. It's fun to see something I actually know about there though. I'm good, thanks. Just getting ready to start exporting some more HighBeam articles. - JuneGloom07 Talk 20:59, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
@JuneGloom07: It makes for a nice surprise! Glad to hear it. Like I mentioned on Rain's talkpage, it's a shame they're shutting shop. Hopefully you'll be able to get everything you need before they close. Anything I can do to help, just let me know. Soaper1234 - talk 21:24, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 19:25, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

User321a TP

Hello there. What is the deal with fellow Wikipedians editing other editors talk pages? I am aware that BrooklynGlassey123 has removed content from my talk page without valid reason to. I can see that you have reverted it, and I am grateful for that. Yes, I may have had this account for a year, but there are still a few aspects of Wikipedia that I am not familiar with. I am aware that the abovementioned Wikipedian has been known for making disruptive edits in the past, and that is why I have raised this. I would appreciate some advice as to what I can do about it, if there is anything. A response would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. User321a (talk) 19:43, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

@User321a: Hi, sorry if you feel my actions were wrong. I was only trying to be helpful. In regards to help with user issues, I'm not too sure. Have you tried raising the issues at a help page? The Teahouse is meant to be good for raising issues. Soaper1234 - talk 19:59, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
@Soaper1234: Don't apologise. You've done absolutely nothing wrong. I truly 100% believe you did the right thing. I believe that BrooklynGlassey321 has been known for causing disruption to the encyclopedia. Would it be against Wikipedia's policies to raise it on the user's talk page? User321a (talk) 20:04, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
@User321a: As long as it doesn't become distasteful, a discussion on the user's talk page can often help. However, you cannot guarantee that they will respond. Soaper1234 - talk 21:55, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
@Soaper1234: Thank you for your help. User321a (talk) 07:55, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Surnames on the Current List

A consensus was reached on the "List of Coronation Street characters" talkpage where it was agreed that the characters should be listed with their current names. Your repeated changes to this is vandalism. Connorguy99 (talk) 20:24, 22 October 2018 (UTC)

@Connorguy99: actually, one quick look at this discussion shows that the majority said to use WP:COMMONNAME rather than the characters' current names. Since this was the consensus, I'll revert your edits. Soaper1234 - talk 17:22, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
You are a liar, and I will once again revert your edits. The majority said that the names should be current. Connorguy99 (talk) 19:14, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
Please watch your tone and remain civil in discussions with editors. As I have once stated, the majority did not say that. You said that. Soaper1234 - talk 19:33, 24 October 2018 (UTC)

Archiving

Hi Soaper,

You enquired about archiving via an user script. Here's what I use:

IamBot put in the article title, and select "Add archives to all non-dead references (Optional)" to create archives for all references in an article. However, if you simply go to - View History on any page, then "fix dead links", it'll automatically fill in the title on the right page. You simply need to click the radio button, and submit to add archives.

There's a few scripts that I know of that make this work easier, such as Tidy Citations from Sam Sailor, or Evad's rater script that I would suggest! Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 14:49, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

@Lee Vilenski: Brilliant, thank you! I shall try it out now for Adrian "Fletch" Fletcher. Thanks for all your help. Soaper1234 - talk 14:58, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
No worries. I did a few more things to that particular article so you can see how they work. I particularly like the DMY script, as it makes everything uniform; which is something I look for in a GA. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 16:20, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
@Lee Vilenski: Thanks for the edits - it looks much better now! Soaper1234 - talk 18:35, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
