Please revert your edit

You should revert your edit undoing my edit as it is a violation of WP:3RR. Just wanted to provide a friendly reminder so you don't face a potential block. WMrapids (talk) 19:27, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

WMrapids How is it 3 reverts? I restored it once, you put it back; I restored it again. That's 2, not 3. You also have now removed it twice.--Orgullomoore (talk) 19:30, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Your initial placement of the content is an edit. In any case, you are participating in edit warring and you should follow WP:BRD. WMrapids (talk) 20:33, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Sir/Madam, you are participating in edit warring. You are the one going back and undoing everything we have worked hard to build over the last couple days.--Orgullomoore (talk) 20:38, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Redirect pages

I'm reviewing some of the redirects that you created (e.g. Venezuela-Cuba undersea cable link) for NPP. I just wanted to let you know that you should categorize redirects per WP:RCAT using the proper templates. Best, voorts (talk/contributions) 03:58, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

A lot of efforts to rewrite Operation Gideon (2020) are being carried right now. As one of the main contributors to the article this might interest you. ReyHahn (talk) 20:22, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

That is very interesting.--Orgullomoore (talk) 02:19, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for the corrections to my edits; if you are planning to re-engage, I have progressed to 3.1 on this timeline (there were multiple Move requests that led to the rewrite, and I've suggested slowing down on the move requests and collaborating on the next one-- if there is a next one). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
No problem. I may do a little here and there, but I'm afraid I'm mostly otherwise engaged.--Orgullomoore (talk) 16:05, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

A hint to make your future treatment of refs easier; you don't have to use the quote marks at all-- they just gum up the text. They are only necessary when there are spaces in the ref name, so it you leave out spaces, and develop a system (I use AuthorlastnameDate), then you'll always know which is which and have much less gobbledeegook to type around in edit mode. (From WP:REFNAME: Please consider keeping reference names short, simple and restricted to the standard English alphabet and numerals. If spaces are used, the following technical restrictions become relevant: Quotation marks are preferred but optional if the only characters used are letters A–Z, a–z, digits 0–9 ..." blah, blah, blah.) Hope this helps! Also, I can't look at a faulty WP:ENDASH or WP:EMDASH or WP:MOSNUM issue without correcting them (too many years of reviewing featured articles that must comply with our house style), so hope you can put up with editing around me! Thanks for the rewrite! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 04:19, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip! No worries, I also have OCD-like tendencies on other issues, in particular if there are footnote refences out of sequence, e.g., [3][1][2].--Orgullomoore (talk) 04:27, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
That used to drive me nuts, but somewhere I read recently they need not be changed, so I dunno. I do know that if they follow a direct quote, it's not good to rearrange them, as theoretically the first one backs the direct quote, and the second one may be just for extra reinforcement. Off for the night; thanks for all your work! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 06:04, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Sleep tight! Thanks to you, too.--Orgullomoore (talk) 06:25, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Just for curiosity, do you know your way around Twitter well enough to determine when the Galvis60 account was suspended ? The reports of chavismo twitter accounts being suspended were from December 2021. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:45, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi, SandyGeorgia! No, I'm not familiar with a technical method of determining the suspension date. I doubt it was a chavista account, though, because he sometimes complained about Maduro. The best I could do is google his name and find the latest tweet of which there is a trace (10/31/2021), which would tell us that the account was suspended after that date. But how much after, who knows.--Orgullomoore (talk) 23:10, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
Interesting on the date of the last posts ... and chavismo accounts usually made anti-Maduro posts to suck others in ... and then get information about who to go after ... all social media became dangerous for Venezuelans because of intelligence gathering. Thanks for the effort, Bst, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:25, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
