December 2020

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Transgender sexuality, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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. Materialscientist (talk) 10:54, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I have removed the sources that were attributed by the templated as "failed verification", I assumed that sources that do not verify the paragraph they are inserted in should be removed and the template "citation needed" is more applicable? Do you think this is incorrect? Sorry, I am new to wikipedia, would appreciate some clarification. --LoraxJr 10:57, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Thats all fine, but please always make such explanations in the edit summary, not after you've made your edit. We (experienced moderators) can guess what you intended to do, but we don't like guesswork, as we meet too many freaky editors, every single hour. Успехов. Materialscientist (talk) 11:04, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Thank you! Should I redo the edit with the explanation in the edit summary? Another question, regarding this article. I have noticed it is missing a lead. I think some information from the first paragraph should be moved into the lead with some extension. Is it appropriate to rephrase the main theme of the article in my own words and put it there with some citations, or does it have to contain exclusive information from different sources? --LoraxJr 05:20, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Good work with the redirect. We never got your ping on the Talk page. Please see these in editing mode: I believe that instead of using @William Harris (talk · contribs), it should have been @William Harris: - William Harris (talk) 12:59, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Ah, this explains why you do not always see my questions. Thank you, will use it now) --LoraxJr 12:01, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

By the way, could you help me to find some sort of tool that will allow to sign discussions automatically? A script maybe? I keep forgetting to sign. --LoraxJr 19:27, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Copying/moving content within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Husky into Siberian Husky. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:54, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

• Thank you for letting me know, I was not aware of this rule. I have, indeed, copied information before and other users have not made this point to me, I will fix the issue now. --LoraxJr 09:20, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
  • I have inserted templates into the pages I have edited in the past, and got a question, is this required even on the pages that became redirects as they were merged to other pages?--LoraxJr 09:46, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

Husky- Siberian Husky Redirect

Hello - It appears you recently redirected the Husky page to Siberian Husky in an attempt to clear up some superfluous information that you copied from one page to the other. However, these articles are of related but not identical topics, and redirecting an article removes the original article, effectively replacing it with the redirect. In the future, for changes that will affect the entirety of an article in this way, please start a discussion on the article's Talk page. I have reverted the change and will look to make further improvements to the Husky page in the near future.

Thank you - Mcfuggins (talk) 22:24, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

This topic was discussed on the Talk page of Dogs portal and it was suggested that articles should merged and cleared out, I have not made that decision by myself. However your recent work on improving both articles mostly solves the issues that made other editors to propose merging, thank you for your contribution.--LoraxJr 13:40, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
