  2. Thanks for your help today with the typo I found which needed editing. I did look around for some sort of edit on the page itself, and didn't see it, but will look harder next time.

Question from Matt5832 (10:11, 20 August 2024)

edit

Hello, I'm new-ish here. I've got an interest in international political economy and I've been trying to flesh out / improve the page on British non-fiction author Nicholas Shaxson. My edits keep on getting undone despite my efforts to understand / respond. It seems to me that the other party is unecessarily blocking content. I can just keep on undoing but perhaps there's a better way forward here? Thanks, Matt

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nicholas_Shaxson&action=history --Matt5832 (talk) 10:11, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Matt5832: Hey there! First of all, please don't just keep on undoing — that's edit warring, and it's generally bad. Instead, start a discussion with the user on the article's talk page. I recommend asking for their view on the situation, then you can do a little research and respond with policy-backed arguments. (A good starting point might be WP:ABOUTSELF.) Let me know if you have further questions! Bsoyka (tcg) 13:23, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
That's helpful, thanks. I've put something in the article talk page and asked some questions. I'll look forward to the reply. It's been frustrating so far... Thanks again Matt5832 (talk) 13:53, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm trying to reveal the candidates 2024

edit

Apparently nobody else will do it so im going to and besides why dont you just help me? Instead of make it even more difficult i've recently been diagnosed with a stroke and I am recovering and if you wish for my health to decline further please assist me in making this 2603:6000:C003:FAF3:5D30:5D09:623E:E5D2 (talk) 21:08, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

As has been mentioned to you already, there doesn't appear to be community consensus to include all the candidates in the infobox. Please discuss this change on the article's talk page rather than edit warring. As for your personal health, I advise you to take a break from Wikipedia if your condition is that stressful. There really is no excuse for poor judgement here, nor are comments like "Whoever reverts it again I hope you die in a fire" going to be tolerated at all. Reevaluate what you're doing here and take a step back. Bsoyka (tcg) 21:18, 20 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey JH!

I wanted to update a picture on my favorite QB's wiki page. It says i'm not confirmed, but I thought i was. Could you help? --Dragon1507 (talk) 18:31, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Dragon1507: Hey there! You'll be autoconfirmed once you've had an account for 4 days and made at least 10 edits. Hope that helps shed some light! Bsoyka (tcg) 00:23, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

On 24 August 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Death of Richard Swanson, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Richard Swanson died while trying to dribble a soccer ball from Seattle to São Paulo? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Death of Richard Swanson. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Death of Richard Swanson), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed.
