Hello, Mike Rohsopht, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page 2018 AFF Championship, have removed content without an explanation.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can place {{helpme}} on your talk page along with a question and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia:

December 2019

edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. — Vaibhavafro💬 15:30, 13 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Comment: Your edits were indeed correct (i.e; the bill wasn't effective yet), but you need to properly cite the source using incline citations. I have done that for you. Best regards,— Vaibhavafro💬 16:31, 13 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Kosovo seats

edit

Hello. Could you provide a source for the Kosovo seat distribution? Cheers, Number 57 17:33, 16 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thanks - as the sources don't break down the seats entirely (for the minority ones), I think it's best to wait until we have a comprehensive one. While we as editors are allowed to do simple calculations (like sums and percentages) under WP:CALC, I'm not sure using the Webster/Sainte-Laguë method counts as basic calculations!

China versus Taiwan relations with Nicaragua

edit

(Re: Foreign relations of Taiwan) — Did Nicaragua not just derecognise Taiwan today? Nicaragua has already been removed from the section of countries with official relations with Taiwan. I'm not certain whether China has established relations with Nicaragua just yet, but Nicaragua has announced its intention to do so, so if they haven't done it already, then they will do it soon.

Birth dates

Companies House is not an acceptable source for birth dates of living people (see WP:BLPPRIMARY and WP:DOB), so if that is Wikidata's source then we should not be adding those birth dates.

Better source request for File:HK Express logo (2023).svg

edit

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as the web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the direct/bare URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. — Ирука13 00:42, 4 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ethnic Minority Politicians

edit

Hi,

I noticed that you were editing the article about Ethnic Minority politicians in the UK and were adding Ministers. I noted that Sebastian Coe, who served as an Assistant Government Whip from 1996 to 1997 whilst a Conservative MP (https://members.parliament.uk/member/783/career) and Lord Patel of Bradford, who served as a Lord-in-Waiting from 2008 to 2009 whilst a Labour Peer (https://members.parliament.uk/member/3798/career) haven't been included.

I also saw that in the Mayoral section it still says Joanne Anderson is Mayor of Liverpool however that office was abolished in 2023.

Also in the Members of Parliament section there are three Liberal MPs who are missing. Henry Arthur Herbert, his son Henry Arthur Herbert and Hubert Jerningham. All of them were mentioned as being Black British/White British (Mixed Race) in these sources, due to having African ancestry: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/queen-victorias-first-christmas_b_14087256 and https://www.radiokerry.ie/news/us-genealogist-believes-owner-of-muckross-house-was-descended-from-slave-293730. Whilst other sources mention the family: Sources about the family include: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=43BGDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA109&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false and https://hampshirearchivestrust.co.uk/stories/blog/plantation-families.

BTW Henry Arthur Herbert senior become Chief Secretary of Ireland in 1857, which was a Cabinet Minister in the House of Commons.

LGBT politicians. Missing names and images

edit

Please would it be possible to add some missing names of Labour Members of Parliament, as well as their pictures and info, to the LGBT British politicians article as I’ve seen you have edited it a bit.

The names would have course be in the members of Parliament section. All were elected in 2024 and their names and sources are below:


I also see that some of the MPs in the current article haven’t had their images updated e.g Kate Osborne, Kim Leadbeater, Chris Bryant and Sarah Dyke and was wondering if you could updated them aswell.

Thank you for adding missing names

edit

Thanks for adding missing names to the list of LGBT politicians in the United Kingdom.

There are a few more missing and was wondering if you might be able to include them:

In Ministers in the House of Commons please add:

In the House of Commons please may you add:

  • George Selwyn who was a Whig MP for Gloucester from 1747 to 1791 when he died - BBC History Magazine. February 2011 vol 12 no 2 pp 53–54. "George Selwyn, a necrophiliac, gay transvestite, sat mute, loved, and undisturbed in the House of Commons for 44 years."

https://dailybritain.wordpress.com/tag/george-selwyn/

I tried to include their sources, which are on their Wikipedia pages, to your talk page but it won’t let me (might be because there were too many)

I was also wondering if you might be able to change the name of The Lord Brooke to Fulke Greville in the LGBT members of the Cabinet and in LGBT members of the House of Lords change Fulke Greville to The Lord Brooke.
