Welcome Bgsu98!

Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 42,451,134 registered editors!

Hello Bgsu98. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Sm8900, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:   Introduction to Wikipedia   The five pillars of Wikipedia   Editing tutorial   How to edit a page   Simplified Manual of Style   The basics of Wikicode   How to develop an article   How to create an article   Help pages   What Wikipedia is not

Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:   Do be bold   Do assume good faith   Do be civil   Do keep cool!   Do maintain a neutral point of view   Don't spam   Don't infringe copyright   Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest   Don't commit vandalism   Don't get blocked

If you need further help, you can:   Ask a question

or you can:   Get help at the Teahouse

or even:   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:   Fight vandalism   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome   Help contribute to articles   Perform maintenance tasks

Become a member of a project that interests you   Help design new templates   Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost   Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
  

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Promotion of World Figure Skating Championships cumulative medal count

Congratulations, Bgsu98! The list you nominated, World Figure Skating Championships cumulative medal count, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best lists on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.

This is a rare accomplishment and you should be proud. If you would like, you may nominate it to appear on the Main page as Today's featured list. Keep up the great work! Cheers, PresN (talk) via FACBot (talk) 12:25, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Edits on Amazing Race Canada 10

Please don’t revert editors changes without consulting first. If you fail to follow this Wikipedia already knows and they will be talking to you. If you have a problem, reply to this message. Jd101991 (talk) 00:13, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

What in fuck’s name does that even mean? Who is “they” and why will they be “talking to” me? That greater than/less than icon you keep trying to use is wholly inappropriate as it has been used to represent the Yield on the results tables of previous seasons. User:Xoruz found an appropriate icon that actually looks like an A. He is very good at this, by the way; so I would follow his lead. You have been reverted by two different editors now (Xoruz and myself); any further attempts by you to revert to that < will constitute edit warring. Bgsu98 (Talk) 00:46, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

So since you reverted it I’ll give Wikipedia the go ahead because I sent an message and they responded and they will talk with you. Jd101991 (talk) 00:49, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

And you said he’s good at this??? He took all the info from my group and copied and pasted before I had the chance to. Jd101991 (talk) 00:51, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, you go ahead and do that, champ. 😂😂😂 Bgsu98 (Talk) 00:53, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

• Add Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers to your watchlist to follow NPP-related discussions
• If you use Twinkle, configure it to log your CSDs and PRODs

TFL notification

Hi, Bgsu98. I'm just posting to let you know that World Figure Skating Championships cumulative medal count – a list that you have been heavily involved with – has been chosen to appear on the Main Page as Today's featured list for August 16. The TFL blurb can be seen here. If you have any thoughts on the selection, please post them on my talk page or at TFL talk. Regards, Giants2008 (Talk) 21:28, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Drum and Bugle Corps Edits

I am not sure what motivated you to go through and delete repertoire and score history pre 1972 for a bunch of drum and bugle corps but this information is all verified and sourced for every page. You can't unilaterally make a decision that "we" aren't going to acknowledge information past a certain date. Odysseymsc (talk) 14:09, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

I didn't do anything unilaterally, champ. All of the former DCA corps are now under the umbrella of DCI, which means their articles are going to be adapted to match the format of the existing DCI articles. Bgsu98 (Talk) 23:35, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User Deleting Historical Information. Thank you. El_C 14:46, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Big Brother 26 (American season), 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. Aditionally, please do not delete comments in your talk page as they can be restored easily. Thank you. Jd101991 (talk) 22:35, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Jesus H. Christ, do not go around issuing warning templates if you have NO FUCKING CLUE what you’re doing. The Big Brother article is not a discussion page, so this “warning”, like most of your edits, makes zero sense. The re-write that I reinstated at least didn’t sound like it was written by a mediocre fourth-grader with a tenuous grasp of the English language. And I know someone like you with a proven history of edit warring and sockpuppetry isn’t accusing me or anyone else of bad form. 😒😒😒 Bgsu98 (Talk) 22:51, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Jd101991 (talk) 15:52, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

This one's not going to go any better for you than the last one did. 😂😂😂 Bgsu98 (Talk) 15:49, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

The references are not formatted or listed well as per other Wikipedia pages (see Yuzuru Hanyu for good example of ref format). It also provides social media which are not reliable and independent, so I was wondering if there are more reputable sources. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 16:21, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Honestly, it looks like the reference section of every other figure skating article I've ever encountered, so I'm not sure what about it looks off to you. As for social media, while it's not ideal, it's also not verboten depending on the circumstance. However, the link you cited (WP:LINKSTOAVOID) does not address the use of social media as a source, but instead instructs us to not link directly to social media in the article (for example, a link to someone's Instagram profile in the External links section of their article).

Thank you!

I appreciated your supportive comment at ANI – I wasn't quite sure if I was overreacting to an empty threat which had already been reverted, and it was good to get some validation that my reaction wasn't over the top. bonadea contributions talk 09:26, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Having also been on the receiving end of a death threat on WP (I mean, come on...), I know how unpleasant it can be, but I also knew an administrator would quickly take care of it. Should there be a similar occurrence in the future, please do not hesitate to contact WP Trust & Safety via e-mail so as to avoid publicizing something like that on a high-profile forum.
