Copying within Wikipedia[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Heresy in Judaism into Valley of Hinnom (Gehenna). 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. DanCherek (talk) 01:49, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

USS Oklahoma[edit]

Information icon Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to USS Oklahoma (BB-37). Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. - wolf 00:51, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Added note[edit]

Hi, I appreciate you wanting to update the numbers of identified crew from Oklahoma, but you need to add an updated source as well. Surely you saw the suppressed note surrounding the numbers of those identified, yet you ignored that and added new numbers anyway. The attached ref is not sufficient. While it links to a list of releases from the DPAA, those articles only announce that a crew member has been identified, along with some brief info on the program. It does not however, state how many have been identified to date and how many are still yet to be identified, the two numbers you keep changing with your edits. I reverted your last edit, and unfortunately, if you continue to change these numbers without adding a sufficient source, your edits will continue to be reverted and you will to continue to receive escalating warnings. Please source your edits. If you need further assistance, you can contact the Help Desk. Thank you - wolf 01:07, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And a further note
I've since re-written the Identification program section, after the report of 300th find ([1] & [2]). The 300th was identified on January 28 and reported on February 4. If you count up the individual press releases announcing the ID of an Oklahoma crew, there are 43 releases, which fits with the latest report of 343 crew ID'd, as of last month. It appears that by just adding a single additional number to the total, with each press release, you made have been counting reported finds twice, which is why you were up to "386" found. This is why I had requested you find a source that gives the actual total, as opposed to trying to manually add up individual reports, over months. This is known as original research and/or WP:SYNTH, and can result in errors, which is why it's not permitted. If you intend to continue editing/updating that article (or any article really), please ensure you have reliable sources with accurate information. Thanks again - wolf 03:20, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (2nd request)[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Abd al-Rahman ibn Muljam into Kharijites.

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.

11 August 2021[edit]

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages (including user talk pages) such as Talk:All Our Yesterdays (Star Trek: The Original Series) are for discussion related to improving (a) an encyclopedia article in specific ways based on reliable sources or (b) project policies and guidelines. They are not for general discussion about the article topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

USS Oklahoma, again[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at USS Oklahoma (BB-37), you may be blocked from editing. - wolf 19:24, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Added note[edit]

Please see the thread "#USS Oklahoma" above. You are continuing to add somewhat conflicting, if not erroneous, information that is not supported by the ref you are attaching. You have also refused to engage in discussion, either here or on the article talk page. This is considered disruptive behavior, though I don't belive this is your intent. I believe your intent is to update and improve the article, so I will ask that you please stop making these edits and start engaging in discussion. Thank you - wolf 19:46, 13 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. I shall not write again — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.5.156.162 (talk) 03:33, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That was not the intent of my message. I was asking that you be careful with your updates, for example, look at the date the remains were identified, not the date of the announcement, as that was leading to duplication in numbers. Also, if you look at the latest information in that section, with the 343 the program discovered, the 35 already known and the 51 unknowns being reinterred, (343+35+51=429), it would appear all the remains are, if not identified, at least currently accounted for, and now the program is to be shut down.

It's still possible that any number of the remaining 51 unknowns might be discovered in the future, but before posting any more updates, please carefully examine the announcement, and consider searching out additional sources. If you have any questions, feel free to ask (this page is on my watchlist). Otherwise, for any other assistance, you can contact the Help Desk. - wolf 22:25, 14 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Signature[edit]

🙂 Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Added note[edit]

Please also take a look at WP:INDENT to help format your replies within a thread. Thanks - wolf 20:12, 15 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Zablon Simintov. See here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Zablon_Simintov&diff=prev&oldid=1039007768. It is an test edit. ----Rdp060707|talk 04:06, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Rdp060707: Fwiw, I don't belive this notice is justified, since looking at the edit in question, it (as part of a series of consecutive edits) appears to be a sincere effort to improve the article by adding up-to-date and sourced information. Could I suggest that instead of the warning you have placed here, that you make an effort to discuss the issue, perhaps on the article talk page? You could point out what you feel is wrong with the edit(s) and ask this user what their intentions were. I belive this is a new and/or inexperienced user, and that there may be a possible language barrier here as well. Also, as of late, the project has been placing a great deal of importance on the treatment of new and inexperienced users. So please keep that in mind. Communication here is key. (jmho) - wolf 04:57, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Thewolfchild: Yeah, but take a look on the link above. The user replaced the content with the letter "A", which is the case of editing test. I assume good faith always. Anyway, yes, I still keeping it in mind.----Rdp060707|talk 05:06, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Rdp060707: well, it appears they were removing the last sentence since the ref attached was dead or broken, and that letter 'A' was likely just an errant keystroke, which happens to all of us at times. They certainly should've checked the edit (via WP:PREVIEW), but just the same, I don't believe this was "vandalism". We'll see if they respond, and in the meantime, leave the checking & updating of that page in your capable hands. Thanks for looking out for the project. - wolf 05:17, 16 August 2021 (UTC)±[reply]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Tribe of Simeon, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 16:46, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Tribe of Issachar. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 17:21, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
