User talk:TechnoSquirrel69

Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page.
Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end.
Please specify a descriptive "Subject/headline" for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed.
Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply.

I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.

Our current top scorers are as follows:

Sammi Brie (submissions) with 642 points, mostly from 11 GAs about radio and television;
voorts (submissions) with 530 points, mostly from two FAs (Well he would, wouldn't he? and Cora Agnes Benneson) and three GAs;

Competitors may submit work for the second round until the end of 28 April, and the third round starts 1 May. Remember that only competitors with the top 32 scores will make it through to the third round. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs. As a reminder, competitors are strictly prohibited from gaming Wikipedia policies or processes to receive more points.

If you would like to learn more about rules and scoring for the 2024 WikiCup, please read Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring. Further questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges (Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), Epicgenius (talk · contribs), and Frostly (talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Explanation

Hello, I saw your message, and I deleted the numbers citation because the box office was wrong. I’ll add an explanation next time. Iamamodforjellymario (talk) 05:19, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message and for leaving an edit summary this time, Iamamodforjellymario! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 13:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your use of rollback

Per WP:ROLLBACKUSE this use was inappropriate, please exercise more care in the future. 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:19F4:3AE2:C47C:384D (talk) 19:55, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can no longer read the diff as the page has been deleted, but I'm assuming you're the person who added the <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags? If so, I apologize, as I seem to have mistaken you for someone else — editing under a similar IPv6 address — who was violating their block. I appreciate you taking the time to leave me a message, and I'll be more careful when reading IP addresses in the future! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 00:23, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, sounds good, and yes that was the diff I was referring to. 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:E41E:B141:7B5:2EF0 (talk) 01:42, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciating your comments

Hello @TechoSquirrel69 Senior editors have an eagle's eye that can capture such details as mentioned. As a junior editor, myself, I always take them heartedly and rework to address the issues. I believe that the content of the article is of public interest (the well being of Swahili language), so I shall try to keep on pushing it. Thanks. Dee Soulza (talk) 20:58, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dee Soulza: Thanks for your message. While I admire your desire to uphold what I assume is your linguistic heritage by writing about the Swahili language, please remember not to let that translate into a biased writing style. As I mentioned in my review, we need to try our best to remain neutral on the subjects we're writing about — our goal is not to convince the reader of anything or highlight any one perspective. The encyclopedia simply summarizes the information provided in reliable sources without adding any interpretations. I wish you luck with writing your draft article. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:44, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Beauty and the Beast (Mark Murphy album)

Hi@TechnoSquirrel69, I added a clarification to the article, as requested. The cited source assigns ratings with "bones" instead of "stars", from "woof to 5 bones". Thanks for the edits! CoralRad (talk) 00:24, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for doing that, CoralRad! By the way, I noticed a higher-quality version of the cover art for this album exists at its Amazon listing — consider uploading that one instead. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 00:28, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TechnoSquirrel69 I changed the cover per your suggestion. I am relatively new at this, should I remove the "clarification needed" from the article? CoralRad (talk) 00:38, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yep; in general, any editor can remove cleanup tags if they feel the issues in question have been adequately addressed. If you think so, go ahead! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 00:42, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't get any kind of notification. Something just appeared on my talk page and I was reminded I hadn't checked on the relisted discussion.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 16:27, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No issues! I think it was my mistake to try and ping you through XFDcloser — I'm not sure if pings go through those messages. In any case, the discussion seems to have closed in your favor. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 18:52, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks. And to clarify, I got a notification about something entirely unrelated.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 22:38, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
