Image revert on Markhor

Hi, Quisqualis! Thanks for recognizing that the image I reverted was probably a better choice for the speciesbox. I was quickly trying to go through this IP vandal's random edits, and a few turned out to be questionable. – Rhinopias (talk) 06:28, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

@ Rhinopias: I see where you removed the too-dark dwarf caiman photo. The current one is far better, especially as a thumb. Keep up your good work.--Quisqualis (talk) 07:48, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

Red links

I've noticed that you've been removing a lot of red links, usually with the argument (per edit summary) that they are red links. While some of these removals were fine and you made the correct choice, others were clear matches of WP:REDYES. Among others, this includes virtually all vertebrate species, many inverts, many plants, etc. The summary in the WP:RED editing guideline says: "Do not remove red links unless you are certain that Wikipedia should not have an article on that subject". Regards, RN1970 (talk) 02:51, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. Is there nothing wrong with creating a red link? I have had them promptly reversed.--Quisqualis (talk) 03:08, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

It depends: As I mentioned, some of your red link removals were entirely right. Compare these

• Bad red link: [1] – you were entirely correct in removing this red link. Being a DOD spokesman is not sufficient to make a person notable (WP:NOTABLE) and finding enough reliable sources for an article for him would be difficult. Starting articles for living people have particularly high requirements (WP:BLP).
• Good red link: [2] – here we have a species where plenty of sources are available and it is likely that an article will be created in the future (in fact, I just did and it could easily be expanded as several additional WP:RS sources are available). This can be said about almost all vertebrate species, many (but not all) invertebrate species and many (but not all) plants.

You're obviously not required to do a search for WP:V sources every time you remove/add a red link; common sense is usually enough to judge its validity and even if misjudging (it happens to everyone) -- it's easy to correct. There are borderline cases where it is less obvious if a red link is valid. Unless it is a field I know I usually stay away from the borderlines, but that's my personal choice and you may prefer another approach in those. RN1970 (talk) 04:23, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks again. I seriously believed it was responsible editing to remove them, that the software had already detected them and added them to some list. I am happy to leave the valid ones. I redlinked the CEO of Bechtel Corporation and it was reversed immediately. Now I am curious why.--Quisqualis (talk) 05:04, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Brendan Bechtel

Hello Quisqualis,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Brendan Bechtel for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Palm Springs, California, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Still, no bit deal. – S.

Kalimpong Edits

I would agree to disagree to your recent comment about the changes I made in Kalimpong page. I am specifically referring to the addition of a gallery.

Kalimpong happens to be one of the three ecological hotspots in India. As such there is a range of plants and flowers that are found here which are not found elsewhere.

Hence I believed for a person who is interested in Kalimpong, these photos would make sense.

Kalimpong is also known for its cactus nurseries, photos of which was also added in the gallery.

However I find the tone of your comment a bit condescending and I no more wish to contribute or rather "clutter" Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons.

I am removing the gallery with immediate effect.

@Subhrajyoti07, I believe that a person interested in Kalimpong would gain little from your photos. It is fun to take many random photos on a visit, but to upload the lot to Wikipedia Commons without descriptive filenames or any sort of image description is wasteful of resources. Clearly, you did not realize that the plants you photographed were not native to Kalimpong, or even the Old World, as you had no idea that you were shooting plants from South America, Europe, South Africa and just about anywhere but India. I guess you visited a botanical garden there, and I'm glad you were kind enough to take down your photos.--Quisqualis (talk) 08:50, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

@Quisqualis - I do not know how much you are familiar with Kalimpong or your sources basis which you have formed your opinion. Let me explain one more time why the pictures were put in that page and why I felt that they enhances the visitor's knowledge and experience.

As you know Kalimpong is a hill station in the state of West Bengal in India. A majority of the visitors who frequent this page I presume are the travellers who seek to gain more information about their place of visit. A large portion of those visitors are from the state of West Bengal and other states of India. As you have very kindly noted that many of the flowers and plants are not endemic to India or the "Old World". The reason being majority of India is a hot, humid and temperate climate. These so called flowers and plants belonging to other parts of the world grow in this hill station precisely for its comparatively colder climate and is rare in this part of the world.

And that's why it may be of interest to those travellers who do not see these flowers in general.

These flowers grow in abundance in Kalimpong and not limited to some Botanical garden.

You are passing off your mere opinions as facts and that I find as unfortunate.

I have taken down the gallery not because I agree to what you said, but simply because your condescending and negative know it all attitude as an editor is what I disliked.

I do not have any issue if there is a genuine error. But the problem is your delivery of the message is rather crude and unwarranted.

Anyways this discussion is not going anywhere and I do not intend to continue this communication any further. But pl do lighten up.Subhrajyoti07 (talk) 15:07, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

@Subhrajyoti07 The fact of your inserting numerous photos of nonindigenous plants without captions or even the potential to have captions into the article, as a commentary on its unique climate, did give me pause. This kind of photo "dump" isn't in accord with the mission of Wikipedia, as WP and Commons are not repositories of people's snapshots, but useful resources for the benefit of others. Even with captions and supporting text, such a gallery would, I think, comprise an undue emphasis on the climate in what once was a balanced article. I am sorry that my annoyance shows to the point that you have been offended, but, at this stage in the life of Wikipedia, such misunderstanding of the point and purpose of Wikipedia still shocks me.--Quisqualis (talk) 15:24, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

Your Teahouse response

Don't forget that fair use photos can also be used, which would be on Wikipedia, not Commons. For "infobox person" you might have been right since for a living person fair use would be hard to justify.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 20:36, 4 September 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Claudia Forte

Saturday Night Massacre

Hi,

I changed the lead in this article to conform with the "use/mention distinction" issue described at WP:UMD: the article is not about the phrase "Saturday Night Massacre", but about the incident itself.

I'm not sure how the end result was journalistic rather than encyclopedic. Clearly "encyclopedic" sounds like the preferred goal for an encyclopedia; can you recommend how to best achieve both goals -- or at least, how did my rewrite make it "journalistic"? Understanding that, I can probably come up with an appropriate revision myself. Regards, NapoliRoma (talk) 05:31, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Actually, it read like "journalistic storytelling", in the way the sentence began by setting a scene, rather than "x is a ...", which is more "encyclopedia-style".--Quisqualis (talk) 05:40, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Republic of China (1912–1949), is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. JohnBlackburne^words_deeds 07:06, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Negative behavior

What you do is not for the best of Wikipedia. Regarding some of the reverts you did on my recent edits:

Crocodilia: Somebody else has already undone the unnecessarily revert you did, and no further comments are required.

Paulinella: "(Undid revision 837676074 by 84.210.7.162 (talk) material removed without explanation)" I didn't remove any material. I ADDED material, source and all.

Lamprey: "(Undid revision 837705496 by 84.210.7.162 (talk) The cited source in no way supports the edit) (undo) (Tag: Undo)" Now that's not true. The source claim exactly what I wrote. Anyone who feel the need to check it out themselves will notice that what you say is simply not correct.

Charophyceae: (Undid revision 837678859 by 84.210.7.162 (talk) failure to cite any sources). It wasn't a "failure", I simply didn't add any sources because I assumed it was common knowledge. If you feel it needs citation, there is a function called "citation needed".

Then you wrote the following on my talk page: "You seem to have a strong aversion to the use of the Edit summary. Such behaviour implies that you believe your edits to require no justification. This may not be the case."

Such comments are unacceptable. If an edit improves the article, that's all the justification you need. For the future, if you want someone to use the edit summary, do it as a friendly suggestion, not as a personal insult. Using the edit summary is not mandatory last time I checked. According to the Wikipedia rules, it is not required, and I see it as an opportunity and an offer people are free to use if they like. The edits speak for themselves for those interested, and comparing selected revisions are piece of cake. Should the rules require it, I will do it. Until then, I may or may not use it, depending on the situation, not because someone random tells me to. 84.210.7.162 (talk) 23:11, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

be careful

You must be out of your mind.. You keep writing wrong information of Kafanchan because of your selfish religion purpose.. Kafanchan is not under any emirate..he is only known as sarkin Hausawa just as we have Sarkin Kaninkon and Sarkin Fanstwam .. So please stay away from making wrong information about Kafanchan it seems like you were paid to do this but am warning you for the first and last time.. Don't cause problem in Kafanchan because this can cause a religion crisis in Kafanchan . And I've requested you be blocked from Wikipedia also Dankafanchan (talk) 12:58, 24 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi there. I noticed you helped at the Teahouse giving a user advice on how to add sections. First of all, thanks for helping out! Then, just as a tip: When demonstrating code that might legitimately be used on a page, try to contain it to the section, for example by wrapping it in the {{cot}} and {{cob}} templates which will create a box with the content rendered inside it (you can use {{cot|expand=yes}} to keep the box uncollapsed). I just added such a box to that section of the Teahouse for you. Regards SoWhy 10:02, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
