A cup of coffee for you!

Dint worry, if you need more I can afford it. This is a little I can give for your heartfelt good advice and responsible reaching out. I have made a few corrections and have more experience in both AFD and RM. What am I talking? I forgot I am here to give coffee. Drink to stupor but don't forget Wiki work and I do want to see you back asap. Do tell me how it taste. Happiest Sunday from my time zone. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 09:32, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dukki gel

Hi Fuzzymagma, could you possibly help me start a new article on Dukki gel which was part of the kerma culture and will reference Charles bonnet ( a Nubioligist) ? Jedorton (talk) 07:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As there is alot of misinformation online about dukki gel Jedorton (talk) 07:22, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
hi @Jedorton, thanks for reaching out. I have started a draft here at Draft:Doukki Gel, please feel free to add more to it but avoid copy right violations. Once the article is ready, I will move it to the mainspace FuzzyMagma (talk) 10:51, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @FuzzyMagma, first off thank you for your assistance on starting the new article on Doukki gel, In the introduction it seems to wrongfully suggests that the 18th dynasty founded Doukki gel but according to charles bonnet the 18th dynasty (thutmose I) founded a city neighboring doukki gel not doukki gel itself, he states this in "The Black Kingdom of the Nile" which can be read here https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.4159/9780674239036-010/html, I would like to say though that I could be wrong as i haven't spoken to Charles directly , But Charles bonnet seems to suggests Doukki gel predates the 18th dynasty (thutmose I) in the Black kingdom of the Nile, again I would like to say thank you for your help. Jedorton (talk) 20:09, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I trust you knowledge when it comes to this area so just make sure to include this distinction/calrification. I won't be the only one who is confused by what is written in websites. FuzzyMagma (talk) 20:14, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thank you. Jedorton (talk) 22:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A question about a revert

You reverted an edit by RetractionBot in the article Filippo Berto, but you didn't give an edit summary saying why. What was the reason for the revert? JBW (talk) 18:24, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

sorry for that, but the retractions are there intentionally as it relates to scientific misconduct and not citation. have a look at Filippo Berto#Scientific misconducts FuzzyMagma (talk) 18:29, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi FuzzyMagna,
Related to this topic, could you please add the two latest retractions that were issued on Berto's papers to the wikipedia page? I will link them below:
1) https://pubpeer.com/publications/3153237D20009C35D4306A840094E7#2
https://www.scientific.net/KEM.754.241
2) https://pubpeer.com/publications/C06070CBC44783058A428EED8457CA#3
https://www.scientific.net/KEM.754.244
Also, I agree with you that the retractions should remain there as they relate to a very serious case of scientific misconduct, especially since it was documented that Berto had financial incentive behind said misconduct:

Metallurgists needed?

The articles Metal and Alloys could do with a little help. I don't know enough about diverse alloys to be confident, plus second opinions/interpretations are always useful. If you know of others please pass on the ping, the WikiProject on Materials seems to have died. Ldm1954 (talk) 07:57, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Professor. hope you are doing well and I appreciate your work here.
First thank you for your comment on fiveling. I will email you once I have something concrete to discuss or when I actually have some results to discuss, just to avoid wasting your time.
As for the Metal and Alloys, I will have a look once next weekend. Sorry these days I cannot really sit and do some focused Wikipedia work. FuzzyMagma (talk) 08:10, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, no rush. 😎 Ldm1954 (talk) 11:12, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please use English and Latin alphabet

Hello, I noticed you made an edit (see here) where you used a non-standard writing system. It has been undone: because this is the English Wikipedia, names should be transliterated into the roman alphabet and entities should be reffered as the common name used in English sources. The reason for this is most users of this Wikipedia will have no idea how to use alternative writing systems and thus it detracts from the understanding of the article. See WP:ENG and WP:UEIA for more information.

You also did not provide a reliable source for the edit; there is consensus among editors that Wiktionary and other Wiki projects are not reliable sources and therefore should not be considered to support information found here. Please find an academic source that supports your edits in future. See WP:WINARS where it specifically mentions Wiktionary.

I also see you undid a reversion by another editor (see here). If you disagree with reversions, it's better to talk to the user directly and understand the reasons why, otherwise it can be considered disruptive. Neatly95 (talk) 10:56, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Neatly95 if you look to the Wiktionary link there is two references. Maybe you should have looked to my edit summary before reverting it FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:04, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
the other thing about "because this is the English Wikipedia, names should be transliterated ..." is slightly misleading, as non-English name are included in infrobox and the lead of articles. FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:07, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
last thing, maybe you are new here, but normally discuss edits in the page talk and tag other editors as I do not think the editor you have mentioned agrees with you, as they have just thanked me for my edit. FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:09, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. I understand what you mean, but either way, Wiktionary is still not a permissable source, even if there are apparently sources there. If there are references on Wiktionary, please by all means, substantiate them, bring them to Wikipedia, and cite them in the proper format to support your edit. You shouldn't reference Wiktionary as a source.
The non-standard writing system is acceptable if it is "commonly used, and transliterated to English: it isn't misleading, it is abundantly clear. It means you can write foreign characters as long as you source a transliteration and establish a need for writing it (i.e. it's a very commonly used name for the entity). You unfortunately did not provide either.
And about the reversions: whether or not I am "new" here has little to do with it; undoing reversions by other editors can be seen as disruptive, so it was just a friendly reminder to discuss a point of disagreement instead of blindly undo a valid reversion. Thanks. Neatly95 (talk) 11:25, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
make sense. I will revert your edit just to add the reference afterward. hope that is not an issue. FuzzyMagma (talk) 15:07, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wiktionary

As it is self-sourced, we shouldn't be using it just as we don't use our own articles. If there is a source in the entry, we can use the source if we have verified it. Doesn't that make sense? Doug Weller talk 13:08, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

it does FuzzyMagma (talk) 13:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. A relief to know that I've got it right. The editor is a good faith editor I am sure, but has made such a mess not just using Wiktionary but changing standard English spellings of deities to those used in other languages, which made leads not match titles, created red links, etc. Doug Weller talk 13:28, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
when they made the edit, I checked the reference and their edits checked out. But now it seems like there is another layer that I have missed, which adding the reference to their edit. FuzzyMagma (talk) 15:06, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
