Please delete this article immediately
This Wikipedia article at this address, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peoples_Financial_Corporation, is totally incorrect and needs to be totally deleted. Peoples Financial corporation was founded in Georgia and is still operating only in GA at 11 locations. This company WAS NEVER associated to any bank, ever! It has also never operated outside of Georgia and is not associated with anything listed in this article!! This article is extremely misleading and erroneous! It is causing customers of The Peoples Bank to call Peoples Financial in GA, and the article is directing them to our web site ... peoplesfinancial.net at the bottom of the article. This is also incorrect.
Nothing in this Wikipedia article is correct!! Please remove the article immediately by deleting it!
Thank you

Why was edit on Asimat Jar Heral Seema reverted
My edit was legit. I gave the Assamese pronunciation for the name so why did you revert it? Uddhav9 (talk) 16:01, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

Why are you reverting official external links?
Hello!
I just added official social media links to couple of Wikipedia people pages.
As per the Wikipedia External Links Guidelines "Links to social networking sites should be avoided Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject"[0]
I would like to know the reasoning behind reverting adding official social media links. Also you ought to check out external links section of this Wikipedia article Ravish Kumar[1]
[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links#Links_normally_to_be_avoided
[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravish_Kumar#External_links
- Hello Rootkea, social links will only be accepted if this is the official site. The article Ravish Kumar has an official site - see infobox. This will no longer accept a social link - see Wikipedia Weblinks -> 10. Regards --Serols (talk) 10:54, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Question
Hey Serols - This might sound petty, but is there a chance you could create something to blue-link your userpage (even just a redirect to your talk page)? I watch new pages regularly and frequently stumble upon user talk pages, etc, generated by your warnings and end up stopping on them because of the red-link!

- Hello Home Lander, next to the username is talk. Regards --Serols (talk) 18:51, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
- Oh yeah - aware of that, I was just wondering if you could add anything to the userpage, so the link to it would turn blue in lists. Home Lander (talk) 18:52, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

You say that adding Munroe Bergdorf's real name of Ian is "not constructive", Can you please tell the world why adding facts is "not constructive". Also who you are to be making these judgements and why you choose to do so hiding behind a pseudonym.

Sorry
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Ethnic groups of Southeast Asia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. XYZt (talk) 07:05, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Question on Disruptive Editing on FPGA Prototyping
Hi,
In regards to [Prototyping] you have stated that the changes I made were disruptive. I fixed a link that was no longer active, and I then added a page that provided information on Aldec's Prototyping Boards for FPGA Prototyping. I do not understand why it was removed when the other external links also provide information to prototyping boards. How was my link any different from their's? And why was my fixed link removed?
- Hello Michelle at Aldec, you made seven edits, all today. One on my talkpage, and six with your own link in six differnt articles, in two articles several links. Sorry, but this looks like link-spam. User CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ was also the same opinion. Regards --Serols (talk) 17:27, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

- Right. Where did I use link in flow-text? I was adding links to existing citations to its source available online. A link-spam is when you use external links for promotional purposes. Whats the objection?

Hi @Serols - Apologies for making edit repeatedly on this page [1]. It's my first contribution and it's my mistake for not checking the Wikipedia rules.

- Hello John Maynard Friedman, seven times the same link is linkspam, therefore my reference to Wikipedia Weblinks. Every day, hundreds of people try to get on their links in Wikipedia. Therefore, the warning was justified. Regards --Serols (talk) 07:06, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
- There are thousands of Wikipedia articles where the same source is cited multiple times. The only difference between those cases and this is that they have done so correctly but this user, through unfamiliarity with wp:citing sources, did not. I do recognise the ugly other side of the story and that what you say is true more often than not. Had the revert been done by a bot, I'd have accepted it as necessary collateral damage but I expect a little more of a human investigator. Nevertheless, I accept that your reversion was also a good faith edit and will leave it at that. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 10:43, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

Your recent edit to the marsh article amounts to an obscene personal attack on Megan Marsh, who is a person not a type of wetland, as well as restoring previous vandalism.

October 2018
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. An actual biological woman (talk) 15:13, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
Please excuse my late reply, the discussion is closed, so my answer here. I did not expect, that the topic is so degenerate. Daniel Kübelböck was a nice guy, but a little bit eccentric. In all German media he was always only Daniel Kübelböck, also in the respectable. He was homosexual, but until shortly before his death, there were no signs and messages that he was planning a gender reassignment. It was not until the cruise, in which he disappeared, that a picture was taken showing him in women's clothes. His dad said in an interview, "Daniel was not depressed, but recently he had psychic problems that are best described as a kind of psychosis, and the change of essence was evident in many parts until he finally showed up as a woman." – see here. To change an article on this basis makes absolutely no sense. I would also like to point out his official homepage and the German Wikipdia. Regards --Serols (talk) 14:05, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
- Serols, you're missing the point. No one in the ANI thread was criticizing you because they thought Kübelböck should definitely have been refered to as female; the situation was complicated and there doesn't seem to be a clearly reliable source. The problem was (and you repeat it here), that you're confusing having gender reassignment surgery with being transgender. Take a look at the transgender article. The gender someone identifes as is not the same thing as whether they have had gender reassignment surgery. It is possible for someone born with male physical characteristics to feel, and self-identify as, female. Once they have made this identity clear, we should refer to them by their chosen name and gender, whether or not they have had gender reassignment surgery or even plan to. While it was not your intention, to say otherwise feels pretty insulting to people who identify as trans but don't plan to have surgery. It makes them feel as if you're saying "not really a man" or "not really a woman". That's what the problem was. It was complicated by the fact that it was brought up by a long term troll, and was characterized as transphobia. But it's important, I think, to understand what the actual problem most people had with your edit summary was. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:39, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- Hello Floquenbeam, thank you for your comment. There is no official statement from Kübelböck that he feels like a woman. There is only one testimony right before his disappearance, he would have introduced himself as Dana. That's not the basis for changing an article like this. Only that was about me. It has never been my intention to offend feelings of somebody. I wanted to clarify that. Best regards --Serols (talk) 19:08, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
- I understand you did not intend to offend anyone. Again, I'm not referring to your reverts on the article. The problem was using the edit summary (and your note on AABW's talk page) "he was not operated". I hope you understand now the problem many people have with that edit summary. Not the revert, but your stated reason for the revert. It does not matter if they have had an operation or not, only how they self identify in reliable sources. I'm starting to repeat myself, so I'll drop this, but I hope you understand. --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:22, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

Did you read the edit summary? I explained there in detail why I deleted and moved the material to wp:ani. I moved it to the main wp:ani page after noone cared to place it there. It is not my fault that wikipedia treats IP editors as second class editors, not allowing them even to place a request at wp:ani because an admin decided to semi-protect the wp:ani page. 77.9.45.189 (talk) 16:09, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
