Changing the original title of a c't article

edit

Please refrain from changing the original title of the c't article "Jede dritte stirbt den Hitzetod" to something different. The original title/quotation is perfectly sound German, there is no need to change it at all, and changing it does not only slightly alter the meaning, but is also wrong because the original is the actual title of the c't article.

Just so you know, you seem to be teetering on the 3RR with your reversions of the spinoff thing. If the editor makes the change again it would probably be best to let another editor revert it. I agree with your position on there so I'll keep an eye out for the change and make the revert if it happens again.--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 19:07, 14 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I noticed that you edited the article Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare recently and I am just letting you know that I plan on working on the article over the next few weeks in order to bring it up to Featured Article status. If you have time, please consider helping out with the article by improving the referencing, content, and other miscellaneous activities in order for the article to meet the standards set out at WP:WIAFA.

  In a recent edit to the page Grand Theft Auto IV, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, you can ask me on my talk page or you can visit the help desk. Thank you. The article uses British English as it is developed in the UK. xenocidic (talk) 05:07, 27 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Mass Effect 2

edit

Hello, I am Kilkia and, unfortunately, I had to undo your changes to the plot section for the game. I hope you understand, but the original version was better. It introduced Shepard earlier, and fit in better in context; because the Normandy was introduced as under attack, it seems fitting that Shepard be introduced with it as its commanding officer and the main protagonist. While your edits are quite excellent and well-intentioned, I think that just stating that Commander Shepard rescues Joker without any mention of who Shepard is just seems off; a newcomer may not know that Shepard is the main protagonist. On this matter, stating how Shepard flies away admist explosions is unnecessary. He is flung away because the Normandy is attacked; the explosions are just background happenings and don't actually affect him - they are the result of the Normandy being destroyed, which is what is summarized already.

I do not normally post apologies/explanations such as this one, but I felt it appropriate, as I had to undo two of your other minor changes to the plot in order to overall undo one main change. Thus, it seems I was 'undo-happy' after undoing three of your changes in rapid succession. Sorry for that, but I hope you understand why I undid your changes to the plot. Again, it is nothing personal. I just believe, yes it is just my opinion, that the original version was better and looks quite professional. :)

-- Kilkia123 (talk) 22:37, 11 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi again, and thank you for your mature response to my above message. Now, however, some editors have decided to "simplify" the plot section of the game. Could you please take a look at the current plot section and discuss any changes you do not like? I have made a post of my opinion in the discussion page. I for one believe the original plot version as of your latest edits was the better version. I am not trying to be rude to the other editors, but now there are quite a few things wrong with the current plot section, including grammar and information being needlessly taken out.
-- Kilkia123 (talk) 03:55, 13 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
I have read your response, and I'll have to agree I suppose. While I still don't believe the old version was "too long," compromising will, like you said, work out better than fighting for something most others don't agree on. Thanks for actually replying; nobody else has said a word in the discussion page. I'll put in some time soon to edit the whole thing for the various grammatical errors I see. I also might add in some information, however, as some parts of the current plot section don't seem to make much sense without added context. -- Kilkia123 (talk) 19:12, 15 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Main page appearance: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

edit

This is a note to let the main editors of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on November 5, 2011. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/November 5, 2011. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or his delegate Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a 2007 first-person shooter video game, developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision for PC, Macintosh, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii. A separate handheld game was made separately for the Nintendo DS. The game was released in North America, Australia, and Europe in November 2007 for video game consoles and Windows. It was released for the Mac in September 2008, then released for the Wii in November 2009, given the name Reflex Edition. It is the fourth installment in the Call of Duty video game series, excluding expansion packs, and is the first in the Modern Warfare line of the franchise, followed by a direct sequel, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 as well as the first game in the series to have a Mature rating. The game breaks away from the World War II setting of previous games in the series and is instead set in modern times. Call of Duty 4 was in development for two years, and it uses a proprietary game engine. On September 10, 2009, it was re-released in Japan by Square-Enix. (more...)

Aliens: Colonial Marines

edit

Hi Dibol,

Concerning this edit, why do you think this is better? It's the plot of the optional downloadable content, which isn't necessarily part of the main game itself. Like this and other media that act as prequels, it doesn't make sense to put it before the plot of what the article is actually about. --Soetermans. T / C 22:30, 16 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

While the DLC is optional content, the story is part of the game's canon regardless of player/fan reception. Long before the DLC came out, the entire story was incomplete especially when it came to explaining Corporal Hicks's survival. I honestly feel that putting prequel content after the main story just doesn't make the summary feel right, at all, regardless of the story content being optional DLC, or part of the main game. Splinter Cell: Conviction's plot summary worked fine regardless of the co-op content not being DLC, and I'm just trying to keep things consistent. Dibol (talk) 00:00, 17 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Destiny (video game). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. I'm viewing this as disruptive editing at this point. -- ferret (talk) 11:29, 10 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Ferret, how was my recent edit considered disruptive? After looking at Destiny's talk page, Mika1h actually reviewed the cited sources in question that made sense. Let me copy and paste it here. "From what I gathered reading those articles and seeing some YouTube videos, the game is single player in the same vein as other MMOs in that you can solo it, but there are still other people running around on the same server. That would make it multiplayer-only game, no matter what Bungie claims. --Mika1h (talk) 23:57, 9 September 2014 (UTC)" From my perspective here, everyone on that discussion page seems to be clinging into the idea that "because Bungie was completely vague about the game, the "Single Player/Multiplayer" modes should be fine as it is. Well, I don't see that is the case. From the ground up, Bungie's claim of a "Persistent World game" exactly functions like an MMORPG, except with a smaller scale.Dibol (talk) 20:25, 10 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your recent edits

edit

I see two problems here with your recent editing: you seem to edit warring using both your account and an IP in the same article, as in Black Hawk Down (film), and you're leaving uncivil edit summaries, as in this edit, where you call someone a "moron". I understand that it may be frustrating to correct misinformation, but you still shouldn't resort to name-calling in edit summaries. The edit warring thing is a bit more serious, and you need to take disputes to an article's talk page instead of indefinitely reverting someone. It's additionally problematic to edit war using multiple accounts. It's allowable to edit while logged-out, but you should not do so to continue (or start) edit wars.

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Aliens (film)‎. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block.

I see you were blocked last month for edit-warring, so I'm sure you know what this notice means; it's a formality, I'm afraid. >SerialNumber54129...speculates 14:36, 15 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

I re-read it. The thing is the sentence is WAY TOO LONG as it is. Mentioning the reversal of time just makes the statement. Just in a summary sense, Maximoff TRIED to destroy the stone, but Thanos already got it regardless of her efforts. It's the wording equivalent of 1+1=2 versus 1+1+1-1=2.Dibol (talk) 19:11, 31 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm 2600:8800:1880:188:5604:A6FF:FE38:4B26. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Alyson Court, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! 2600:8800:1880:188:5604:A6FF:FE38:4B26 (talk) 17:06, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Biographies of living persons discretionary sanctions alert

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Alyson Court. Thank you. Woodroar (talk) 01:35, 20 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

I reverted your edits again at Alyson Court. As I mentioned in the discussion at Talk:Alyson Court last year, claims by people on Twitter can be used to support claims about themselves but never other living persons. We also can't combine sources to create a plausible narrative but have to stick to what the sources actually say, and we should generally let reliable, third-party sources guide our articles. Sure, our policies and guidelines aren't always followed uniformly across the project, but that's because we have more than 5.8 million articles, virtually everyone is a volunteer, and many people just don't know better. Someone breaking a policy doesn't mean we should allow BLP-violating content everywhere. If you'd like to discuss this further, please come back to the Talk page. Continuing to add poorly-sourced content about living persons is just going to end up with your account and your IP addresses blocked and the article protected from editing by new users.

  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 WP:ANI, 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. Note that page guidelines state that you should not break up another editor's text by interleaving your own replies to individual points. Woodroar (talk) 22:35, 31 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Takayuki Yagami

By any chance could you revise Takayuki Yagami like you did with Lost Judgment. L Judgment is inaccessible to me because I don't live in America and thus hasn't been imported yet. Especially since the article is GA. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 11:43, 4 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

I’ll see what I can do during whatever free time I have. We’ll need to keep in mind that I can’t just copy and paste Lost Judgment’s plot summary onto the page and call it a day. Dibol (talk) 11:46, 4 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Yep. I have no idea what is Lost Judgment is about though so far since I avoided checking playthroughs or reading the plot section of that article. The only thing I know is that Yagami can do the Fortnite Dance.Tintor2 (talk) 12:41, 4 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Your recent editing history at The Blacklist (TV series) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. PAVLOV (talk) 16:18, 21 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people, as you did at The Blacklist (TV series). Comment on content, not on fellow editors. PAVLOV (talk) 16:19, 21 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
