Edit Summaries

Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled " Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

 

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. -- 220 of Borg 18:02, 14 September 2013 (UTC) reply

Hello

Hello Shaolin Punk,
I see you have made an impressive number of edits ( See WikiChecker) and created quite a few articles. Thank you for helping to improve Wikipedia. However it seems no-one had formally welcomed you, hence the 'Welcome!' template.

Please take the time to read some of the links above, particularly those about Biographies of living persons (BLPs) (as that is a major area of your editing), Neutral point of view and referencing.

  1. Keep in mind that Wikipedia is a collaborative project and we need to work in co-operation with other editors. I say this because I note that despite your impressive edit count, you have made exactly 2 edits ( here) to other editors talk pages. This is despite some experienced editors posting to your talk page to give you good advice, such as about normal Wikipedia practices in the use of flag icons in BLPs. Strongly suggest that you appreciate the concerns of other editors such as these. Editors concerns can be greatly helped by using informative edit summaries, which it appears you don't use at all, apart from automated ones.
  2. As for referencing I noted that your recently created page Michael Thompson (karateka) only had 3 references, and only one cite per reference. (Better than none of course!) Secondly the refs. only had their titles. Other information such as the publisher, author, date, and the 'retrieved' date (date the reference was 'accessed') is missing but are also important. There should be a selection for 'Cite' on the far right of your editing tool-bar. If you click that you can select a template back on the left, which you can fill in by drag&drop or pasting info into the fields on the templates. Much easier than manual 'coding'. Another way is to use the Reflinks tool, which I have done on Thompson's page. It isn't a perfect tool, doesn't always fill in all the data and and makes mistakes, but please try it out.
    1. Another thing I noted there was that you had the "External links" section before the "References" section, External links should be after Refs. per the Manual of Style/Layout. I have moved the sections to comply.
    2. I also have to question the reliability of the sources you used. Who are the 'Central Kickboxing Organisation'? Never heard of them, scanty information on their website. Little web presence [1] Only appears 6 times on all of Wikipedia (only 5 times as a source) and has no Wikipedia page of their own, which suggest that they are not notable, which further suggests that they are potentially unreliable. Sources have to be Reliable sources (WP:RS), especially for Biographies of living persons (BLP). Ref № 2 the 'bubblews.com' source seem to be a self publishing site similar to a blog. Self-published sources are not WP:RS
  3. I would also suggest talk page archiving rather than blanking it, though it is certainly not mandatory!

Sorry for all the waffling on, just trying to help you. Happy Editing. ≡ 220 of Borg 18:02, 14 September 2013 (UTC) reply

About Andy Ristie & Glory Lightweight Championship title

See here( http://www.gloryworldseries.com/en/fighters/rankings/lw), there's no lightweight champion now. Ristie is just 2013 tournament champion, not the glory lightweight world title holder. He will fight against Davit Kiria for the vacant & inaugural Glory Lightweight World Title according to this article( http://www.gloryworldseries.com/en/news/view/433), which is saying "Kiria will square off with Ristie (41-3, 21 KO’s) in the co-headline fight on Saturday, March 8 with the winner becoming the first GLORY World Series Lightweight Champion."

Hello Shaolin Punk. A few things. Much of what you did here has been undone or altered. You changed the dates to the month-day format, whereas the article had it the other way around: this change was needless, and was corrected/reverted by Dl2000. Please don't go around changing date formats: the format was perfectly acceptable, and European subjects typically have European dates. And see WP:DATERET. Also, you added a "controversy" section, but that's not a very good title since it's not neutral and criminal prosecution is not always automatically controversial. This information is now moved to the "Personal life" section. Thank you, Drmies ( talk) 15:16, 21 February 2014 (UTC) reply

A tag has been placed on File:Kool G Rap & DJ Polo - Bd to the Bone.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Your edits

Hello Shaolin Punk. Thanks for your edits to MMA articles on Wikipedia. A few points, though. One is that according to WP:INFOBOXFLAG we should not add flag icons to infoboxes like you've been doing: "Generally, flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field: they are unnecessarily distracting and give undue prominence to one field among many." Also, according to the WP:MMA project -- as agreed upon by MMA editors -- we should generally not fill in the "style" parameter in infoboxes: "Do not use the style parameter from the

Shaolin Punk

in MMA biographical articles. Modern MMA requires training several fighting styles, which means that no mixed martial artist uses a single style when fighting...". And finally please watch out for overlinking which refers to linking to things like common geographical names, commonly known terms in general, and to the same thing more than once in an article (link to it the first time but not in succeeding instances). If you have any questions or comments you can reach me on my talk page. Thanks. SQGibbon ( talk) 19:53, 18 May 2014 (UTC) reply

Disambiguation link notification for December 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hells Angels MC criminal allegations and incidents, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page West Midlands. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

How to move an article to a different title

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Manitoba Warriors - 1323 a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Manitoba Warriors. This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

A tag has been placed on File:Roskildecarbomb.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{ Non-free fair use}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Mobster to gangster category move and sortkeys

Hi. I stumbled across Category:Jewish-American gangsters sorted under "M" in Category:American Jews by occupation because of the old "Mobster" sortkey that was not changed. I assume the other categories at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2021 February 8#Category:Mobsters might have the same issue? I.e., it seems that the "Mobster[s]" sort key should be replaced by "Gangster[s]" in any category or DEFAULTSORT statements in the categories that were moved, right? —[ AlanM1 ( talk)]— 18:05, 21 February 2021 (UTC) reply

Yes you are correct. Thanks for pointing that out. Shaolin Punk talkcontribs 19:04, 21 February 2021 (UTC) reply

Do we need to raise the issue again at AfC or do you have another plan? I haven't done too much with categorization, but I think it's correct, and I can do it with AWB fairly easily if you like. —[ AlanM1 ( talk)]— 21:15, 21 February 2021 (UTC) reply
I have little experience of categorization myself. If you are able to correct it, I would appreciate that. Shaolin Punk talkcontribs 21:49, 21 February 2021 (UTC) reply
 Done. I also removed " Category:Gangsters by nationality" and/or "Category:Fooian criminals" from the categories that transclude {{ Fooian fooers}}, since those categories are already inserted by that template. —[ AlanM1 ( talk)]— 05:22, 25 February 2021 (UTC) reply

If I'm reading the edits correctly, you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Chaldean mafia‎. This is known as a " cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history. Please undo the cut'n'paste, and if you wish to reverse the redirect vs actual content, do it as an actual page-move. DMacks ( talk) 21:10, 12 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Yes that's correct. I had tried to rename the page via move as the capitalization is unnecessary but was unable to due to the redirect without the capitalization already existing. Shaolin Punk ( talk) 21:23, 12 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Makes sense. I finished the undoing of the cut'n'paste move. Feel free to file a WP:RM and whoever closes it will be able to override the redirect for you. I see a note that the page is at the current capitization based on Google Books hits. So that's why it's best to have a discussion, so everyone with a reason or interest can come to a consensus.
