Hello, SpinnerLaserzthe2nd,
I hope you are well. Please do not remove deletion tags from pages that you created. Rest assured, if a category is no longer empty, either I or another editor will untag it so that it is not deleted, as long as it occurs during the 7 day period when categories sit in Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion. And if a category is deleted simply for being empty and you find you need it later, it can easily be restored. Take care, LizRead!Talk! 15:30, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Disambiguation link notification for April 22[edit]
I just had a look at Bulbapedia based on your edit summary to the userbox, and wow, I never knew there had been so much discussion on Pokémon species capitalisation! That's so interesting. Although it makes more sense for me for them to lowercase, proper noun style does seem to be the convention, and that is how they're done in Wikipedia areticles too, so I'll stick to that while on Wikipedia. Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it :) -- NotCharizard🗨 23:44, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I am part of the Unreferenced Articles project and I noticed you've been adding a lot of references to Japanese articles - thank you so much! When you do, could you be sure to remove the 'unreferenced' tag at the top of the page? It makes it easier for us to keep track of the backlog which is, unfortunately, enormous.

An article you recently created, List of municipal flags of Eastern Germany, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Russian classical dance until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.
Thanks for uploading File:Lena Forsén.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 03:20, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed a file deletion tag from File:Lena Forsén.png. When removing deletion tags, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. You can dispute the deletion but you may not remove the deletion tag.Whpq (talk) 03:30, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Inserting Nastaliq script on Iran-related articles[edit]
Hi Spinner. I noticed you have recently embarked on inserting the Nastaliq font on many Iran-related articles. However, Nastaliq is a calligraphic script, and is "not" used as an everyday writing script for Persian in Iran. I would therefore like to ask you to stop doing this, as its not an improvement to said articles. Thank you! - LouisAragon (talk) 19:46, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It seems you have inserted it on more articles than I thought. Could you revert these yourself manually? Saves the community a lot of time. Thanks! - LouisAragon (talk) 19:49, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If Nastaliq is a calligraphic script, what do people in Iran use instead? I wasn’t aware that Nastaliq was a calligraphic script and wasn’t used in everyday writing anyone. I wonder why? I think the Persian Wikipedia should have a Nastaliq option. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 19:54, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@SpinnerLaserzthe2nd: The writing system is just called “Persian” (Farsi). Obviously when you add Persian-language text using “{ { lang | fa } }”, it automatically uses the standard script and you don’t need to do anything extra, the same way you wouldn’t do that for any other language. Like LouisAragon said, Nastaliq is used for artistic purposes. We use it on book covers, poetry books, and so on. It’s not “the normal” way of writing. —Rye-96 (talk) 22:48, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't add unsourced countries to film infoboxes. Most of the time, this is already sourced. If it's not, you can help by adding a source and citing what it says. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:44, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But it is co-produced by a British studio, I had checked the article. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 05:45, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's irrelevant. Wikipedia is based on what reliable sources say, not our personal criteria for what makes a film British. So, for Wikipedia to label a film as British, there needs to be a citation to a reliable source that does the same thing. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:56, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Queen's Personal Flags are exactly as the name suggests - personal to herself. You cannot assume that they will be adopted unchanged by her successor and your moving all of the articles has been hugely messy because other editors had already changed them to be in the past tense. XAM2175(T) 00:52, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I thought all names are charged to reflect Charles himself even the flags are no longer used. Is there is a process for that? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 01:07, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No. There is a division between things that refer to the current monarch, and things that refer to a specific monarch. Where things refer to the current monarch, articles on those things should be updated where they refer to current events or circumstances. Where things refer to a specific monarch, as with the Queen's personal flags, there is no automatic change unless the new monarch decides to adopt those things themselves - and when, if ever, that does happen the way the article is updated should be decided on a case-by-case basis. Please remember that there is no deadline in editing Wikipedia; it is better that an article be outdated for a while rather than being updated incorrectly.

Hello, I noticed your edit to the Flag of the People's Police of the People's Republic of China.svg, thanks for your contribution, the picture File:Police Badge,P.R.China.svg does not fully restore the color and pattern configuration of the police badge. For example, the configuration of the national emblem pattern, the asymmetry of the two pine branches at the bottom and the bump at the top of the shield are all different from the police badge. The type-07 PLA cap badge File:PLA's cap insignia (2007 Edition).svg should not have a blue background, it should be hollow, and the gold color value is not correct, it should be brighter. Could you help fix them?
In addition, the type-21 People's Armed Police cap badge has been distributed in large quantities, could you participate in drawing the svg of this badge? Thx!—— Zzhtju (talk) 20:12, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Depending of the country, the civil flag (fly by private compagny and citizen), can be different from the state flag (fly by public compagny, government, embassy, ...). Check that article for a better understanding: State flag.
I check on real life embassy (mosly via Google Street View) before changing the flag in these articles.

Subcategories of existing categories should not be added to articles. For example, Category:Anti-Americanism is a subcategory of Category:Workers' Party of Korea. Every member of the WPK does not need to have Category:Anti-Americanism because it is inherent if the article has Category:Workers' Party of Korea.
WP:CATV and WP:CATPOV: Categories should also be verified by the sources in the article body. This is especially important for labels such as "anti-American". Just because you are certain of a label does not mean it should be added. If the label is widely used, you should have no problem with finding reliable sources that use that label for the subject.

Categories can only be deleted by speedy deletion if they have been emptied. Otherwise, you end up with a great many articles with red link categories on them which, according to WP:REDNO needs to be avoided. It's best to send them back to CFD.
Also, if you are going to tag a page as the recreation of a page deleted during a deletion discussion, CSD G4, you need to provide a link to the deletion discussion so that this can be confirmed. Thank you. LizRead!Talk! 02:37, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you feel that this image does meet those criteria, please place a note on the image description or talk page explaining why. Do not remove the {{di-fails NFCC}} tag itself.

An article you recently created, Lists of German municipal flags, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello! I invite you to Talk:2023 Israel–Hamas war#Germany as you have removed content under dispute at a talk page discussion, after previously mis-translating a source which was confirmed by an Arabic-speaking Wiki editor to confirm German drone were going to Israel, not Ukraine (as you claimed in your reversion). I also encourage you to self-revert as this is your 2nd revert of the content and in your 2nd revert, you did not provide adequate reasoning to violate the Arbitration Remedies on the article. So please, self-revert this specific edit, as you have not participated in the discussion and seem to be unaware of the inaccurate translation you conducted when you reverted the content the first time earlier today. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 03:35, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I reverted the report you filed at SPI because you didn't create it properly. You may refile, but please either follow the instructions at SPI or use Twinkle; do not do it free-form as you did. Also, a heads-up: you need more evidence for your report to be evaluated. Comparison diffs between the alleged sock and previously blocked socks are expected.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:47, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Habesha peoples, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Two of the groups you added to the infobox may be considered part of, rather than related to, Habesha people - that's been a contentious issue (see Talk:Habesha people). The other groups you added there are not otherwise mentioned (much less sourced) in the article.Gyrofrog(talk) 23:06, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please understand that - per a discussion on Talk:Psalms - we generally have only full text for the Psalms in Hebrew and English (King James Version). It would help if you reverted yourself, adding Latin. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:47, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You reverted a change I made and changed a link to just refer to the country of the Netherlands. However, the constituent countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands do not have a separate foreign/defence policy. The Dutch Armed Forces and foreign ministry always represent the entire kingdom and not just the constituent country of the Netherlands. I think it's okay to colloquially refer to just "the Netherlands" in text, but the link should be correct imo.
Hello, at least one or more of your edits in various pages related to Khomeinist groups such as Popular Mobilization Forces have been reverted. While these edits may have been in good faith, they were difficult to distinguish from disprutive Editing since it appears that you have inserted unsourced content based on your own POV and Original research.
If you have doubts, take it to the tall page instead of editwarring. Note that "Users who engage in edit warring risk being blocked or even banned. " Thank you. shadowwarrior8 (talk) 19:03, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you are going to warn be about this, I suggest you to please look at the similarities between Khomeinism and Qutb
Please see WP:BRD. You've been bold and added this article to Category:Fictional German people three times, and you've been reverted each time. Not once have you attempted an discussion. Instead, you keep edit warrning, a behavior that can easily get you blocked. Come to the talk page and propose your changes, but you need to come with a reliable source that says Ehrmantraut is German, because as it stands now, it looks like you're making an assumption based on his name.

So? We're not talking about that category. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 17:17, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I think I see what you mean by this. The category Category:Fictional American people of German descent was in the article and has now been deleted and you're trying to replace it with Category:Fictional German people. I think that's great that you're trying to do that with articles it was deleted from, however it shouldn't been a category in this article in the first place as it wasn't sourced. The crux of the problem is, after you added it, you were reverted, and then you added it back. You were reverted a second time and still added it back. You didn't follow BRD. Once you're reverted, if you disagree with the revert, go to the talk page. Don't edit war to add it back. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 17:26, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I reverted your edit on Samuel O'Reilly because I haven't seen anything in sources that would show he went by or was known by anything other than the American version of his name. Your edit didn't have an edit summary, so I'm not sure why you added the alternate name – please always include an edit summary (WP:FIES). I see you made similar changes to a few other articles. Are you basing these changes on sources that show these people sometimes used an Irish version of their name? Dreamyshade (talk) 15:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, after those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their consensus among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process edit requests on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.
This user right gives you access to some of Wikipedia's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password.
If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.
If you were granted the permission on a temporary basis you will need to re-apply for the permission a few days before it expires including in your request a permalink to the discussion where it was granted and a {{ping}} for the administrator who granted the permission. You can find the permalink in your rights log.
Instead of individual reverts, please follow the WP:BRD process and discuss the issue at WT:FOOTY. SounderBruce 21:07, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is there is the reason why you removed them despite the fact that sources states so? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 21:11, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Stock image websites are not reliable sources; the first part of my reasoning (as also explained at WT:FOOTY) is that these simply aren't significant parts of the tournament. They don't belong in the infobox and should be placed in the prose summary of the tournament with a proper source. SounderBruce 21:18, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you give me an example of where it should be in a prose summary? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 21:18, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's an "Opening ceremony" in the articles on more recent editions, such as 2018 FIFA World Cup#Opening ceremony. That's where it should go, with a good citation. SounderBruce 21:35, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear colleague, please note that renaming of the article shall not be done by moving text, as cutting/pasting removes the history (and creates authorship issues). Instead, please use one of the procedures in WP:MOVE. Here are more details:
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Soma Station] a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Sōma Station. 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 for registered users, 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.
Is there a reason you are adding other religions to articles about different Jewish communities stating that they practice religions that are, you know, not Judaism? Looking at, for example, the Bene Israel article, there is no mention as to them practicing a religion that isn't Judaism so I really don't know where you're getting this from. Please provide a source for these edits. Kazamzam (talk) 21:45, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just wanted to say – great job at picking up where I left off making userboxes for individual Olympic Games, using the same format I first used almost fifteen years ago. It occurred to me I hadn’t made any for awhile so I made userboxes for the 2024, 2026, and 2028 Games, and then went to put them in the Userbox Gallery and lo and behold I was greeted with yours haha. I hope you don’t mind, I still put my versions of those userboxes there, as alternates – but yours look better than mine ever did anyway lmao.
