Precious anniversary

Five years!

We Dance On - source beat - cite doesn't mention genre - check arc

N-Dubz singles

Ok I won't remove those genres for now, I don't want to start an edit war. However, I hope it'll be ok if I manage to replace those unsourced genres with sourced ones. --Blueberry72 (talk) 20:37, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi Blueberry72, Generally speaking the genres should stay sourced or not - I'm aware of there being edit wars with these but so far there's been no edit wars with these and it's not like IPs are changing these on a daily basis so for the time being I'm not seeing a reason to replace or remove them,
There's plenty of articles here with the genres unsourced so there doesn't look to be a consensus to have these sourced unless absolutely necessary, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 20:44, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
I would like to point out that unsourced genres often stay in the infobox only because the page is rarely visited or simply because they were accepted passively, but they constitute an original research. Claims of music critics are worth more than the opinion of an user. Blueberry72 (talk) 21:10, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
Fair point, My sort of assumption was that news sources could be wrong too however at the end of the day sourced is better than not. Thanks –Davey2010Talk 00:19, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
Don't worry, I usually cite only professional reviews for genres. Thanks. Blueberry72 (talk) 10:28, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
Brilliant, many thanks, –Davey2010Talk 16:30, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

Editing news 2020 #3

On 16 March 2020, the 50 millionth edit was made using the visual editor on desktop.

Seven years ago this week, the Editing team made the visual editor available by default to all logged-in editors using the desktop site at the English Wikipedia. Here's what happened since its introduction:

  • The 50 millionth edit using the visual editor on desktop was made this year. More than 10 million edits have been made here at the English Wikipedia.
  • More than 2 million new articles have been created in the visual editor. More than 600,000 of these new articles were created during 2019.
  • Almost 5 million edits on the mobile site have been made with the visual editor. Most of these edits have been made since the Editing team started improving the mobile visual editor in 2018.
  • The proportion of all edits made using the visual editor has been increasing every year.
  • Editors have made more than 7 million edits in the 2017 wikitext editor, including starting 600,000 new articles in it. The 2017 wikitext editor is VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode. You can enable it in your preferences.
  • On 17 November 2019, the first edit from outer space was made in the mobile visual editor.
  • In 2019, 35% of the edits by newcomers, and half of their first edits, were made using the visual editor. This percentage has been increasing every year since the tool became available.

Cafe Rouge

Please let me know why you reverted my edit to the Cafe Rouge article. You left no edit summary. Thanks. Paul W (talk) 12:11, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi Paul W, Apologies for the revert - I did immediately revert after - Unfortunately when my watchlist loads it then jumps up after so when I went to click on someones name it jumped up and clicked the rollback button instead so apologies for that, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 12:39, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Removing report at UAA

Hello. I noticed that you reverted one of my edits to UAA. I added a new report there, but also removed some previous reports that were already declined but still remained there for some more hours. Did you check the diff? LSGH (talk) (contributions) 17:49, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi LSGH, You removed "declined" reports whilst reporting another user with the edit summary "Adding report for KarlMarxTD" ..... You made no mention of removing declined reports .... I (nor {{u|Praxidicae)) and anyone else) can not read your mind.
Please leave the "declined-removals" to the admins - I've been here coming on 10 years and even I don't do work such as that (because I'm not an admin), Stick to reporting and leave the removals to admins.
Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 17:58, 4 July 2020 (UTC)
Just leave the removals to the bot (User:HBC AIV helperbot5). It's much more hardworking than the admins. Bishonen | tålk 00:22, 5 July 2020 (UTC).
I once saw someone remove such kind of reports because they were already "seen by too many eyes", so I thought it was fine to do so. I chose to remove those at the same time that I reported another user because I do not want to do multiple edits and flood the revision history. The reports that I tried to remove are still there, while others continue to add reports. I don't think the bot removes reports that have been declined, but it does remove those that have been acted on. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 03:43, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
LSGH then raise whatever issue there might be with the bot to the bots owner, 2 edits is not flooding the history. Happy editing. –Davey2010Talk 09:35, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Its pretty simple dont revert my edits if there is no need, and there is nothing against wikipedia guidelines. Get concensus for your unneeded edits. And stop acting like wikipedia police here, yo are not my dad who can told to me what I can do here and what not. You are the edit warring here, I just restored the old good look for article and you started right away reverting those articles, without any concensus or valid reasons. -->Typ932 T·C 20:38, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm sure we had this discussion just last year and I'm sure you were told to pack it in!, We're going around in circles and I'm getting rather dizzy now so you go toodle off away from my talkpage and we can let someone deal with the AN3 report, Cheerio. –Davey2010Talk 20:48, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Branded "IBAN violation"

Another case of branding something as "IBAN violation" because they didn't get their way with it even after being told by an admin that it was not IBAN violation. Don't know what's up with these folks but this user and Typ932 have much in common with their behaviour. U1 quattro TALK 18:30, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi U1Quattro, I had spoke to Floq here and they said an ANI report should be done which he'd do next week, Unfortunately I'm hopeless when it comes to ANI reports and would rather leave it to someone who can word things better than me and who'd be more detailed than me so sorry I couldn't be of any help,
Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:37, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
In my opinion WP:ANI advice applies here. As it states that admins are not one's user rights to be used however one wants. U1 quattro TALK 19:23, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

Please do not vandalise the Columbia Transportation page.

Hello, Your recent four edits to the Columbia Transportation constitute vandalism. Please stop this now, as it can result in a block. Best, MTATransitFan (Questions? Comments? Just want to chat? Click here) 00:43, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

MTATransitFan, Go read WP:Vandalism and once you're finished with that - Go read WP:NOTTRAVELGUIDE. –Davey2010Talk 01:07, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010 how is this a travel guide?? Also, I know what vandalism is. You removed almost the entire page. If the roster is a "travel guide" then the entire MTA Regional Bus Operations fleet is a travel guide. Please do not edit the page anymore. I will bring an admin in if this continues.
A) Like I said in my edit summary we list fleetlists as prose - not gigantic tables, B) We never include service hours here because they vary from service to service and such things are seen as NOTBUSGUIDE (and plus once outdated they become useless).

Isuzu Giga

I disagree with the reinstating of the article. It is still of poor quality and only has two sources which are manufacturer sources. It is better off as a redirect. U1 quattro TALK 14:31, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

I disagree, It needs to be updated and improved sure however I have no knowledge of the truck nor do I speak Japanese. It's better off as an article. –Davey2010Talk 14:43, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Then the disagreement is not valid as you have not provided any reason based on which the article should stay. You don't know about the subject neither the sources you have cited are reliable third party sources. U1 quattro TALK 15:55, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Like I said to you Yes the article still needs major improvements however you nominated the article on the basis of "An article with no source whatsoever" - The article has since been sourced so therefore you have no valid reason to reinstate the redirect. Also only one person participated in that AFD and did not provide any reason to redirect other than "Redirect: to Isuzu_Motors#Current_commercial_vehicles" so I would say you have no consensus at all to continue the redirect.
If you have a problem go to AFD. –Davey2010Talk 16:00, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Yes. I have gone there and have added another reason. You however have deleted a talk page discussion without any reason. If the article is so dear to you then you should be able to explain why it should stay. U1 quattro TALK 16:02, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Good for you. It's like you're simply looking for a reason to delete it. Why not improve it and source it ?, BEBOLD and all that.
Just remember U1 we're here to give our readers knowledge ... just remember that. –Davey2010Talk 16:08, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
And that article fails to provide sound knowledge to readers about the subject matter. Sourcing it a big hindrance as there are no third party sources covering it. That's why I'm against it staying. U1 quattro TALK 16:20, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
Wrong, The article provides basic knowledge to our readers however it can provide more if people put effort in it, I've done my bit and have done the best I can with it. You didn't state that at that time, You simply stated it was unsourced... so I sourced it ... and now you're still unhappy with it, Either way not my problem. You had a problem = I fixed that problem. Goodbye. –Davey2010Talk 16:32, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

This is not an acceptable edit summary

Here. This will likely get you blocked if it happens again. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:05, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Hey Floq, Understood, My apologies for that, Having spent the last 3-4 days on that article alone the last thing anyone wants to see is someone come over and just delete everything .. so that comment was more out of frustration than anything, Still I shouldn't of said it,
I've apologised to U1 for it too[31],
Apologies again, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 21:29, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for apologizing to U1Q. That happens around here so much less often than it should, it's nice to see it happen. This warning was probably more abrupt than called for, too, so I'll do my bit and apologize for the tone. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:45, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
Floq, No worries I'll always hold my hands up and apologise for things I've said or done wrong, I agree - Apologies on here are unfortunately rare,
No apology necessary - The tone was fine, I'm counting my lucky stars I wasn't blocked to be honest!, Anyway thanks for your message, Hope you and yours have been okay,
Take care Floq, –Davey2010Talk 21:53, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Good job further extending the idiotic drama and increasing the amount of trolling happening I hope you're pleased with yourself. --JBL (talk) 21:05, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

No JBL, Leaving it there whilst telling everyone else "You're being trolled" increases the drama, Removing or striking his comment with all comments moved to talkpage 'decreases the drama. –Davey2010Talk 21:08, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Car category rangeblock

If you mean the range of the last two IPs here, unfortunately that's too wide of a range to block; that's a /14 range, and the largest range we can block on IPv4 is /16, and even that would carry too much collateral damage in this case. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:06, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi Ohnoitsjamie Ah no sorry I didn't mean the range for those 2, I know on some occasions he's come back as the same IP but the end 2 numbers have been different (IE "2.123." has remained the same but numbers after that have been different), I would assume blocking on 2.123 would be almost impossible as would assume that's an entire area etc, (My knowledge of rangeblocks isn't great!),
Anyway many thanks for your swift help, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:13, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Editing news 2020 #4

Read this in another languageSubscription list for this newsletter

Reply tool

The number of comments posted with the Reply Tool from March through June 2020. People used the Reply Tool to post over 7,400 comments with the tool.

The Reply tool has been available as a Beta Feature at the Arabic, Dutch, French and Hungarian Wikipedias since 31 March 2020. The first analysis showed positive results.

  • More than 300 editors used the Reply tool at these four Wikipedias. They posted more than 7,400 replies during the study period.
  • Of the people who posted a comment with the Reply tool, about 70% of them used the tool multiple times. About 60% of them used it on multiple days.
  • Comments from Wikipedia editors are positive. One said, أعتقد أن الأداة تقدم فائدة ملحوظة؛ فهي تختصر الوقت لتقديم رد بدلًا من التنقل بالفأرة إلى وصلة تعديل القسم أو الصفحة، التي تكون بعيدة عن التعليق الأخير في الغالب، ويصل المساهم لصندوق التعديل بسرعة باستخدام الأداة. ("I think the tool has a significant impact; it saves time to reply while the classic way is to move with a mouse to the Edit link to edit the section or the page which is generally far away from the comment. And the user reaches to the edit box so quickly to use the Reply tool.")[36]

The Editing team released the Reply tool as a Beta Feature at eight other Wikipedias in early August. Those Wikipedias are in the Chinese, Czech, Georgian, Serbian, Sorani Kurdish, Swedish, Catalan, and Korean languages. If you would like to use the Reply tool at your wiki, please tell User talk:Whatamidoing (WMF).

The Reply tool is still in active development. Per request from the Dutch Wikipedia and other editors, you will be able to customize the edit summary. (The default edit summary is "Reply".) A "ping" feature is available in the Reply tool's visual editing mode. This feature searches for usernames. Per request from the Arabic Wikipedia, each wiki will be able to set its own preferred symbol for pinging editors. Per request from editors at the Japanese and Hungarian Wikipedias, each wiki can define a preferred signature prefix in the page MediaWiki:Discussiontools-signature-prefix. For example, some languages omit spaces before signatures. Other communities want to add a dash or a non-breaking space.

New requirements for user signatures

  • The new requirements for custom user signatures began on 6 July 2020. If you try to create a custom signature that does not meet the requirements, you will get an error message.
  • Existing custom signatures that do not meet the new requirements will be unaffected temporarily. Eventually, all custom signatures will need to meet the new requirements. You can check your signature and see lists of active editors whose custom signatures need to be corrected. Volunteers have been contacting editors who need to change their custom signatures. If you need to change your custom signature, then please read the help page.

Next: New discussion tool

Next, the team will be working on a tool for quickly and easily starting a new discussion section to a talk page. To follow the development of this new tool, please put the New Discussion Tool project page on your watchlist.

Regarding the logo on Indian Railways

I'll keep this brief, there's text on the train that can't be read clearly at 180px. Is there any particular issue with a logo size value of 250px? Prolix 💬 18:36, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Prolix, Up until this very second I had no idea there was even text on the train - Even at 250px I still cannot read the text on it so it would need to be higher than 250px to please everyone however obviously that would be silly, I guess you could always crop that bit of text and put it in the article somewhere if it's really that important however having the logo huge for the sake of some tiny Indian text in the middle is IMHO silly, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:41, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010, I think it reads perfectly fine at 250px, it doesn't need to be any bigger than that. That aside, why is 250px too big? Prolix 💬 18:44, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Well good for you. Well because it is ?, The current sizing is adequate and doesn't need enlarging for the sake of some text that English readers wouldn't understand. –Davey2010Talk 18:49, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010, that seems to be a very weak line of reasoning. 250px isn't too big, most logos on wikipedia are that size. Care to point out the MOS that says 250 is too big? Prolix 💬 18:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Most logos here are 150px depennding on the logo itself. 250px is too big, Care to get the fuck off my talkpage?. –Davey2010Talk 18:56, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010, you have a colourful personality. If you can't link me the MOS that backs up your claims I'll be reverting your edit. Have a nice day. Prolix 💬 19:00, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Well unfortunately for you we have wp:BRD so you'd need to get consensus, Cheerio!. –Davey2010Talk 19:10, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010, that works too, thanks for pointing it out. Prolix 💬 19:18, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
You're welcome, Happy editing. –Davey2010Talk 19:31, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
@Prolix: It would actually be preferable never to use pixels as pixels are not a unit of length. For example, a Samsung Galaxy S20 has a 6.2" 3200×1440 (563 ppi) display. On a 27" 1080p desktop monitor, you'd only have 82 ppi. Unfortunately MediaWiki only supports relative sizes for thumbnails. (using the upright parameter) If users want to read the text on the train of the Indian Railways logo, they'll have to view the full version. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 23:53, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
Alexis Jazz, thank you for that. I hadn't considered how the same image could look vastly different on different devices depending upon the resolution of the screen. Prolix 💬 07:50, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

I need consensus

Hey Davey. Hope you don't mind me asking for help.. See Template talk:Infobox video game#Release date (P577). Seems like a no-brainer to use P577 from Wikidata if the local release parameter is absent, but apparently no.

I don't like starting an RfC here, which I'm guessing is what ferret is hinting at. I don't understand the rules and would prefer nobody attempts to explain them to me. I just get shouted at. I can't, won't and don't understand why "We should change this fucking thing" is wrong and "We should change this thing (new line) Support, we should change this fucking thing" is alright. At least that's how I think it works, and I shan't comprehend it.

Can you help? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 00:07, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

Hey Alexis Jazz, Sorry for getting back to you so late, RFCs are the best thing when it comes to getting consensus (they're my go to) however in this case this would appear to be the only label that isn't invoked from Wikidata and so getting consensus for it would seem daft given others have been accepted or added without issue. Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 11:08, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
Hi again, Ferret has replied and being absolutely honest I didn't understand a single word of their reply, Mainly because I don't work with Templates, So I'm afraid you'll need to get consensus (or talk to someone who works with Templates), Sorry I couldn't be of any help, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 12:09, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
I forgot to reply I think. Thanks for looking at it, I think I'll just let it rest for now. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 00:01, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Script fix

I appreciate your gratitude, but I am a Luddite compared to most on here and relied upon the guidance/examples of @TheDJ and CAPTAIN MEDUSA:. They deserve the credit, not me! GiantSnowman 21:22, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Morning {{u|GiantSnowman)), I copied TheDJs code as well as Medusas and neither worked whereas yours did, I did notice Medusa created the "Testing.js" page but assumed that was a test for himself whereas you provided something that worked and plus you were kind enough to provide a diff for your fix. I've read the recent discussion but I'm happy with the fix you provided - It works so that's all I care about :), Happy editing, –Davey2010Talk 08:39, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

So it's absolutely fine to be poked yet the moment I become angry at said poking I'm the one in the wrong?, Right okay. Your blocking has simply proven my point - This place has become a circus. Anywho I'm finally done with the project. Thanks to those who have helped me and supported over the years. Take care all. –Davey2010Talk 20:04, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
Dude. I think it's a matter of degree. If someone tells me my hat looks silly, I can't burn down their house and kick their dog, right? On reflection, it does look a little pokey-ish to me, and I wish it had not been posted the first time. But you need to let things roll off your back a little, and not lead you to do things that are clearly against a few policies. I'm quite probably projecting, because I'm noticing myself being more on-edge than usual, but I'm wondering if something is making you more easily fly off the handle lately? I'm reminded of your getting angry really quickly last week too. Hope all is going well for you IRL, and ... this looks snotty, but isn't ... a few days off might be just what the Dr. ordered. Take care, --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:07, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi Floq, Very fair point you wouldn't do such extreme actions over a silly comment and maybe my flying off the handle yesterday could be seen as being a tad extreme, I believe AG dragged me to ANI over something silly before so there's history between us.
IRL everything's much better now than it was say 2-3 months ago, Mentally I'm better now or atleast getting there but when someone out of the blue comes along and tells me "you read that wrong" - I see that comment as someone trying to poke me more than anything especially when as I said there's been history between us.
Unfortunately the FO's/flying off the handle have been a thing since I've been here and I believe I was nearly indeffed over it too although I had at one point adjusted to using different phrases but unfortunately that doesn't appear to have lasted,
Take care Floq and thank you for reaching out here, I always appreciate and take onboard everything you say here. Thank you for your help and support over the years it means a lot so thanks again, Take care Floq (And if I don't return then I wish you all the very best).
  • Djm-leighpark - Please accept my sincere and unreserved apologies for the edit summary used yesterday, The language shouldn't of been used and I have never ever once thought you were a troll either. When someone's quite clearly angry the last thing anyone should ever do is template someone as that just inflames the situation, Even if policies or whatnot were broken a gentle message goes a long way and certainly is more appreciated than a templated warning but either way there's no excuse for the edit summary so I sincerely apologise for saying what I did.
  • Hi Patient Zero, Many thanks for your kind words and likewise you've helped me a lot on this project (as has Floq and countless others) and my thanks on here will never be enough but thank you for your help on here and thank you for the birthday wishes too, Yeah all is well thanks much better now than when lockdown was a thing that's for sure, Hope you're doing well mate, Take care (And if I don't return then I wish you all the very best).
No worries! I am glad to hear things are looking up. I certainly didn’t enjoy the lockdown much either to be honest, and Wales is about to lock down again in fifteen minutes! I am doing alright otherwise. Take all the time you need and hopefully I’ll see you around very soon. :) Patient Zerotalk 16:44, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
  • No problems. Per what I said on ANI I was actually trying to switch round the WP:AN3, WP:3RR, and Template:uw-3rr and didn't read WP:3RR properly. In fact I've just seen Template:Uw-3rr-alt which might have been a option if combined with some specific text. Had I gathered an ANI was in progress, and perhaps I should have by checking user contributions, I wouldn't have issued the WP:3RR. But these things sometimes get missed in realtime. The main point is I really like your considered response to the incident (rather than simply say raising an unblock request) and would support an unblock request unless you've decided to ride the 48 hours out (which actually can be a positive thing sometimes ... at least that's what I find with mini-self-blocks which I sometimes self-enforce ... though mostly when I have to concentrate on something real life). Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 18:24, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Hi Djm-leighpark, No worries, You were doing what you thought was best at the time - I've certainly done things thinking I was de-escalating the situation when in fact I was unintentionally making things worse so I understand your actions etc and obviously I hold no grudges with you or anyone else.
Personally I believe blocks should be ridden out and in some respects believe the block was deserved (and some could say it should've of been for longer!)
Thanks for starting an unblock discussion at ANi but honestly I have no problems with the length and tbh I'm catching up on much needed work at Commons so I'm atleast making myself useful somewhere :), Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:39, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Went ahead and unblocked since this seems to meet Bradv’s criteria for an unblock and it’d been brought up at ANI. Matter seems to be resolved from where I’m sitting. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:23, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks TonyBallioni, and I agree this is resolved. Davey2010, I'm glad to see your comments here – happy editing. – bradv🍁 23:31, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks TonyBallioni for unblocking I appreciate that, Never dreamed that I'd actually get blocked on my birthday of all days but hey ho. Thanks Bradv for blocking me as lets be honest I would've continued to remove their comment although I'm grateful it wasn't for longer than 48h!, Anyway onwards and upwards, Thanks. –Davey2010Talk 10:10, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Happy Birthday!

Wishing Davey2010 a very happy birthday on behalf of the Birthday Committee! Chris Troutman (talk) 21:44, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
Happy birthday, Dave. I hope all is well? I remember many years ago when you helped me out on here, as I was just getting started. Just wanted you to remember you were of such great help to me back then and I’m very grateful that you took me under your wing. Hope to see you back when everything cools down again. We’re losing too many good eggs. Patient Zerotalk 23:14, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Ways to improve Ford Fiesta (fifth generation)

Hello, Davey2010,

Thank you for creating Ford Fiesta (fifth generation).

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Please have a look and remove WP:COPYVIO. Wikipedia is detecting 84.5% copy-paste from https://rotujiwecoji.nationwidesecretarial.com/fiesta-ford-6109sj.html

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Amkgp}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

~ Amkgp 💬 17:06, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello ~ Amkgp, As stated in the edit summary I'm simply splitting the article (IE copying the section from one article to another) - The text is not mine so your concerns would need to be taken to Talk:Ford Fiesta or Talk:Ford Fiesta (fifth generation), Thanks. –Davey2010Talk 17:10, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
Davey2010, Oh I see....I think it is a reverse copyvio. No issues then. ~ Amkgp 💬 17:15, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for your improvements to the page Casey Calvert (actress)! What do you think of my research on the article? What do you think of my having successfully rescued it from deletion? Right cite (talk) 19:44, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi Right cite, Thanks and thanks for your improvements to the article too, Happy editing. –Davey2010Talk 19:46, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

--Floquenbeam (talk) 19:16, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello Floquenbeam, Sound advice - I planned to do those anyway - Not a battle worth dying for!. Once I've sourced the articles I wanted to I plan to leave the project after for a while, Tbh I'm torn between retiring and vanishing right now but for the time being articles here are far more important than silly squabbles that will be forgotten in a week!, Thanks as always for your sound advice. –Davey2010Talk 20:00, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Apology

Before I leave project for some time I wanted to reach out and sincerely apologise AlgaeGraphix for the edit summaries/comments towards you, These shouldn't of been said to you nor anyone else on this project for that matter - There are means and ways telling people to go away and it really isn't that,
I've also realised my language here has certainly gotten worse over the years and I genuinely feel like my behaviour now (if that's the right word) is incompatible with the project so before I'm shown the door for good I figured a long break might do me the world of good.
I'm not this guy who randomly tells people to F off and I feel like I've now pictured myself to be this absolute A hole who goes around telling everyone to F off when in fact I'm not and I don't. I've never shyed a way from the fact I have a temper problem which I've had since I was a child however IRL I don't have a lot of patience that's literally it ... If something doesn't go well for instance in the kitchen I become agitated etc etc.
Still there's no excuse for my language here and I know If I don't change soon my tenure here will be cut very short.
Anyway I'm sorry again AlgaeGraphix for the edit summaries/comments and I'm sincerely sorry to anyone else who I've used bad language/stupid comments at.
Not sure if I'll ever be back but for now thanks all who have helped and supported me throughout my years here It really does mean a lot,
Thanks, Kind Regards, Dave // –Davey2010Talk 16:14, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Also, Davey, people in general, perhaps including you, tend to all have cabin fever now. Tempers seem to be flaring all over the project, and I certainly feel a lack of patience in myself. I hope you have a good break and that you do return, refreshed! Bishonen | tålk 16:22, 27 October 2020 (UTC).
Thank you; and when you return, I hope you live up to the Civility and Diplomacy Barnstars that you earned in the past. AlgaeGraphix (talk) 00:40, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Man alive, not you as well. Everybody seems to be leaving :-( Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:35, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

  • Thanks Bishonen, Ritchie, Celestina007, Gerda and Mrjulesd for your kind words here, Your words do mean a lot to me. Unfortunately I just don't have that mindset to edit here anymore, The virus, lockdowns etc have all affected me mentally and sadly that doesn't look to improve what with the new 4week lockdown imposed in the UK. Anyway thanks again for your kind words here it means a lot.
In the meantime stay safe and take care, Thanks, Regards, Dave // –Davey2010Talk 14:45, 1 November 2020 (UTC)


Retired?

I'm confused. Since when? Why?

I just came here to shout. People drive me crazy. :-/ You know how it is. Aaaaaargh. :-( — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 23:05, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Can you help with the creation of a policy proposal? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 23:22, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Hey Alexis Jazz, Hope you and yours are safe and okay,
Well where do I begin .... long story short this happened, followed by some soul-searching, became depressed and suicidal, rest is history as they say. Once I've sourced the articles that are on my list I plan to scramble my password and leave but untill then I'll still be around.
Haha I know that feeling all too well! :), You could try some meditation or failing that a nice alcholic beverage of your preference! :).
I'd love too but being honest images aren't my fortay here so you'd probably be best asking someone more knowledge such as JJMC89, Sorry I couldn't be of more help :(, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 01:01, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
Please don't scramble your password. Log out, take a break, but don't burn any bridges. We all make mistakes. You recognize your mistakes and even apologize for them. You have any idea how rare of a quality that is? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 12:18, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
Could you try adding mw.loader.load('//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Alexis_Jazz/AngerManagement.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript'); to User:Davey2010/common.js and enter some profanity in an edit window without publishing it? (make sure you have "Syntax highlighting" disabled, this currently only works with the plain text source editor) Even if only just for laughs. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 13:42, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
Honestly I feel like I've burnt too many bridges here, True but there's only so many times one can apologise - after a while it becomes meaningless.
Anyway thanks for popping by :), Take care and all the best Alexis. –Davey2010Talk 22:10, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
Please just ask for a self-requested block for a couple of months or whatever. If you don't wish to come back after that, that's up to you. I can understand needing a break from the madness that is wiki, but don't deny your future self this. Your future self will scream at your past self which is currently your current self for doing this. Think of the kittens! — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 23:47, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
Hey Alexis Jazz, Love the last part of your comment! - That will almost certainly happen. Unfortunately I've convinced myself certain things which I fear is due to me being depressed. Think it's fair to say 2020 has been hard on everyone!. Anyway think a forced break will do me some good. Thank you for caring it means a lot Alexis!. Stay safe and take care, Kind Regards, –Davey2010Talk 19:44, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
I had to think for a while. Depression and thinking of suicide is no light topic. I know I can't convince you, that I can't show you how it distorts your vision of reality. You are aware it does, but you can't see to what degree. I know I can't explain to you that people do forget and ultimately accept imperfections of each other as long as they contribute positively overall (which you do!). I know I can't convince you to stay, and I know that if I tried I'd only drive you further away.
But please honor this one request I make. If you must burn a bridge, burn it mentally. Write down a new password (with a pen on a piece of paper), something sufficiently random that you won't be able to remember tomorrow and change your password to that. Put the paper in an envelope and write "Don't open until you're feeling awesome again!" on it. Tape it shut and store it with your tax administration (or something else you never need/want to look at again). I'll be seeing you. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 16:05, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
Hey Alexis, Thanks for your suggestion - It sounds a bloody brilliant idea I'll certainly keep that in mind!, Thank you for listening as well as for your help you really don't know how much that means to me like seriously so thank you so much!.
It's amazing what 6 hours of walking a day in the countryside can do!, Certainly beats the life I was living 2 days ago that's for sure!
Thank you for caring and for lending your ear it does mean a lot!,
I hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy and Healthy New Year,
Take care Alexis & stay safe, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 23:50, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Season's Greetings

Hi Davey2010, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year,
Thank you for all you do, all the best--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 18:41, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi, we could discuss on the talk page if you like, but you may not be aware that someone has been trying to get the non-notable person "Simon Minter" onto as many pages as possible for years. It's been reverted (and not only by me) tens of time, at the very least, on that page along with others such as Minter (surname). The list on the school page is restricted to notable alumni, and all have their own pages on Wikipedia to establish that fact. This person doesn't, and has piped the link to Sidemen (YouTube group) on which he is mentioned. But as you know, notability can't be established merely by pointing to another Wikipedia article on which there happens to be a mention: it has to be supported by proper reliable references. And there has never been anything that would enable this Simon Minter to maintain a page of his own. I'd like to remove the addition on that basis. MichaelMaggs (talk) 12:55, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi MichaelMaggs, Apologies for the delayed response, My apologies for also reverting you, My main and only issue was that you reverted stating "unsourced" which to me didn't make sense as that list wasn't sourced anyway ... however I should've done my due diligence and properly checked instead of skimming everything so my apologies for reverting you, I've gone ahead and undone my edit as completely agree with you redirects aren't good enough.
Thank you for taking the time to come here, Take care and stay safe, (And hope you and yours have a lovely Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year), Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 20:26, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for reading this and reviewing the edit, I appreciate it. And with very best wishes to you, too, for Christmas and the New Year. MichaelMaggs (talk) 21:54, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
No worries, Many thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 22:19, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I decorated a special kind of Christmas tree
in the spirit of the season.

What's especially nice about
this digitized version:
*it doesn't need water
*won't catch fire
*and batteries aren't required.
Have a very Merry Christmas – Happy Hanukkah‼️

and a prosperous New Year!!

Merry Christmas!

If angels sung a Savior’s birth,
On that auspicious morn,
We well may imitate their mirth,
Now He again is born!

If stars in heav'n shone bright as day
To light the manger throne,
We should rejoice as well as they
That love doth reign alone.

All Glory be to God on high,
And to the earth be peace;
Goodwill henceforth from heav'n to men
Begin and never cease.

Oneupsmanship: This painting turned the friendly rivalry between Edward Redfield and Elmer Schofield into
a feud. Schofield was a frequent houseguest at Redfield's farm, upstream from New Hope, Pennsylvania,
and the two would go out painting together, competing to capture the better view. Redfield served on the jury
for the 1904 Annual Exhibition of the Carnegie Institute; at which, despite Redfield's opposition, Across the
River
was awarded the Gold Medal and $1,500 prize. It was not until a 1963 interview that the 93-year-old
Redfield revealed the painting as the cause of the 40-year feud between them. Schofield may have painted it
in England, but a blindsided Redfield knew that this was a view of the Delaware River, from his own front yard!
