Editor experience invitation[edit]

Hi DJ Cane :) I'm looking for people to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 21:31, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've added my experience. That's for this project, it's fun to read through other replies and I think it's a great way to prepare experienced editors to have more patience with new folks. DJ Cane _(he/him) (Talk) 21:48, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for participating. You might find it interesting that I also started contributing as a teenager (just a bit past my 16th birthday). I don't reflect on my earliest edits quite the same way as you do, but it's interesting to learn about your experience. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 08:55, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Admin help[edit]

This request for help from administrators has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page.

My talk page was recently vandalized by User:Rocketman771 (diff) after they had a contrary opinion to mine in a discussion at Talk:Tornadoes of 2024/Archive 1#New Model for main tornado article: 2024 suggested changes and improvements. In that discussion, the same user was bordering on personal attacks based on perceived national identity. I'm not sure what sort of action is appropriate in this situation, but this seemed like a more appropriate method than WP:ANI since this appears to be their first issue like this. Thanks!

Shortly after posting this notice, I experienced similar vandalism (diff) from User:Yellowboy7. Seems like possible sock puppetry but an admin will be more equipped to handle the situation. DJ Cane _(he/him) (Talk) 16:49, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you wish to report Rocketman, take this to WP:ANI. If you wish to allege socking, take this to WP:SPI.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:58, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oof[edit]

Maybe I should remove my question? Sorry for going off topic. MidnightStudios16 (talk) 23:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you need to remove it, it's a fine question and we have shown that we are moving over to a more appropriate location. As a general rule, don't delete messages from talk pages. You could ~~strike it out~~ or apologize if you really think you need to, but I don't think either are necessary in this instance. DJ Cane _(he/him) (Talk) 00:09, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you[edit]

for catching this. The source seems to be written in a confusing way as it states "Within a 13-mile radius of Kelly Butte (Plate 1) there are over 32 volcanic vents; within c 20-mile radius centered at Troutdale there are 90 volcanic centers. Most of these were originally small cinder cones like Pilot Butte and Lava Butte near Bend, Oregon [...]," but I think maybe they only meant to say that there are many vents close to Portland and that they resemble Pilot Butte in size/volcano type. Either way I appreciate you catching and correcting my error. ceranthor 23:53, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Happy to help! That's what open source collaboration is about. DJ Cane _(he/him) (Talk) 17:24, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
