Martini was a striptease artist early in her career, according to this link. I did accidentally delete a category by mistake when adding the Erotic dancers category which I never would have done intentionally and I apologize for that mistake and appreciate your bringing it to my attention. However, all the other edits were appropriate. The new category (Erotic dancers) was based on the above reflink, which you did not bother to check, thus a Level 3 vandalism warning was inappropriate.
Martini also won three million francs in a French lottery according to this link, which I also intend to add and to restore my edits as they are reliably sourced. Please let me know if you have any further objections. Yours, 68.175.106.35 (talk) 00:29, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- @68.175.106.35: You're all good. I saw the edit in isolation, and I think you would agree that without context, changing "Category:Holocaust Survivors" to "Category:Exotic Dancers" does seem bit like vandalism. :) As for the L4 warning, that was automatic--Huggle (an anti-vandalism tool) automatically adds a warning based on the last warning level. I've removed the warning so that you won't get ARV'd. (talk to) Gaelan('s contributions) 02:55, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Has anyone reported the sock farm? Sheesh, Dlohcierekim (talk) 01:10, 13 October 2017 (UTC) Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/DominicaInfo Please feel free to comment. I have to stop now.Dlohcierekim (talk) 01:31, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- @Dlohcierekim: I already reported, actually. Judging by the redlink, they seem to have merged? (talk to) Gaelan('s contributions) 02:56, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- The previously existing one was so much better, I deleted mine as superfluous.Dlohcierekim (talk) 02:58, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
Tiananmen Square
Hi, personally I don't regard my edit where I replaced massacre with protests as a violation of NPOV. The title of that article is protests, not massacre after all. Would you mind elaborating your point? --123.161.168.52 (talk) 03:46, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- That part's fine--I'm more worried about you removing "by the Chinese government." (talk to) Gaelan('s contributions) 03:51, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- Got it, thank you for your kind reminder. --123.161.168.52 (talk) 03:56, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
- By the way: sorry, I feel like I didn't do a very good job of assuming good faith. Glad everything's cleared up. (talk to) Gaelan('s contributions) 03:59, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Abhay (2001 film)
Gaelan, the page I was editing was about a Hindi film, the article must be different from Aalavandhan article which is a Tamil film and it’s counterpart. Femin Tushar (talk) 02:46, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
List of battery types
Dear Gaelan,
I thought it would be helpful to add a reference link that gives people who have searched for battery types information on how to select a battery. There are a range of considerations when trying to find the right battery type. Could you please elaborate on why that link was not considered appropriate?
Thanks
