Hello there, I made something that might interest you.
Greetings! I see you've been editing the List of home video game consoles page often, making additions to the First Generation, as well as creating pages for each console individually.
It's great that you also have interest in this often ignored chapter of history, most people don't want to talk about it, but it's important to understand.
Only problem I have is.... in the list page, that I have no idea how to organize them, because as I have discovered in my research, there are A LOT OF THEM.
How many? Well, I took the time to make a Wikimedia Commons list of the consoles, alongside every single picture I could Find on Commons.
As you can see, listing all of those in a single page will obscure the rest of every other console ever made, and it will clutter the page like Spam. It's a mess, and I'm not sure how to deal with it.
A different approach is needed when listing the first generation of consoles, that's why I separated the counter for the consoles, and only started from the second generation. Also why I grouped as many into "Series" to clean up the page, listing more important ones individually (The First one was the Magnavox Odyssey, and the last one was probably the Bentley Compu-Vision for example).
It's still very much a work in progress, but it needs to be done.
Thanks for the help! You found a photo I didn't! The Telescore 750 was on my list, but the image was missing. If you find any more that aren't on my list, feel free to add them :)
Hope this document I created helps, keep up the good work!

Speedy deletion nomination of Interton
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Interton requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. DGG ( talk ) 04:28, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Commodore TV Game 2000K and Commodore TV Game 3000H moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Commodore TV Game 2000K and Commodore TV Game 3000H, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Cypronia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Slovak (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to ColecoVision have been removed because you cited the information you added to another Wikipedia article or an external wiki. As discussed at WP:CIRCULAR and WP:SPS, Wikipedia and other wikis should not be used in citations because they are not considered reliable sources.

Yoga articles
If there's one thing one might suppose to be "unnecessary", it would be an editor making dozens of edits removing "a" with that edit-comment. I really wish you wouldn't, frankly. Chiswick Chap (talk) 18:52, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
- By the way, all your edits were technically incorrect: the guideline says they should begin with a capital letter, which they did before your edits. And no, that's not an invitation to edit even more, far from it. Chiswick Chap (talk) 18:55, 21 May 2020 (UTC)
To your first comment: If you name one argument why these "A" and "An" are not unnecessary, I will never remove them enymore. But these are just unnecessary in my opinion since nearly no articles about well-known topics with a short description have this. Type in "Apple" in the search for example: You won't see any short descriptions like "An American company", "A smartphone", "A software", "A Wikimedia list article", "An online service" etc. These articles in the short description just increase the likelihood that readers are confused, take space and look weird and non uniformly.
To your second comment: Thanks for this hint, I didn't know that. I will stick to it for future edits.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 19:14, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

Your recent additions
Hello! Thank you for your recent additions, but could I suggest that you slow down a bit to avoid errors? For example I noticed here that you suggested the subject had an occupation of "American streetballer from", which doesn't make sense. I also see that you've been including nationality in the occupation field on a large number of articles - it definitely shouldn't be there, and see this guideline regarding its inclusion generally. Similarly, this guideline outlines the use of internal links - things like "US" generally shouldn't be linked. Thanks! Nikkimaria (talk) 20:35, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Invitation to WikiProject Basic Income
Hi, I see you are an editor of the page universal basic income. I was wondering if you wanted to join or help Wikipedia:WikiProject Basic Income? The project is currently inactive so it could really use some participation by new members to kick-start it again.
I have also opened a move request on its talk page here - Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Basic Income#Requested move 22 October 2020 - to request that it be re-named to Wikipedia:WikiProject Universal Basic Income. If you could please spare a minute to leave a respond to this request on the talk page there it would also be much appreciated.

... how this is an improvement. My view: per the definition of the website parameter, that is the personal website, so nothing new until I click. I prefer to see on what kind of external link I click - or better not. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:10, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
The link in the parameter does not necessarily have to be a personal website. It can also be another website maintained or owned by the person. For example, the website in Ray Kurzweil's infobox, kurzweilai.net, is not his personal website, but a website maintained and owned by him.
I use Google Chrome on Android 7 and if I click on the link for a few seconds, it shows me the URL adress. On Windows 10, the URL is also shown up on the left corner of the upper side with Chrome. I don't know how it is on other browsers and operating systems.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 20:23, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Nomination of Gerald Lembke for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Gerald Lembke is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gerald Lembke until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. TomStar81 (Talk) 20:59, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
- "I personally can't see anything that would speak for G11." In my eyes, the reason for the G11 tag was more to do with tone, there is some issues in the article with structuring of words and phrases that read as being promotional in orientation. For example, "As an independent management consultant, Lembke was managing director of his own consulting company LearnAct! based in Wiesbaden from 1999 to 2007." could be reduced to "As a consultant, Lembke was managing director of LearnAct! from 1999 to 2007." The latter trims a few words, but in going bare as it were loses some promotional overtones by sticking more strictly with the facts. If you look at the article you can find other lines that could be reduced as it were, and I would be that this si why it got a G11 tag in the first place. I hope that helps, or at least explains, how the article got here. TomStar81 (Talk) 14:31, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
Ok, thanks, this probably explains how the person who added the tag thought. But still, I don't think this would justify adding a speedy deletion tag because the article wouldn't "[...] need to be fundamentally rewritten [...]" as G11 states. In my opinion, a POV tag would be more appropriate here.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 15:28, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
- And that is exactly the reason I declined to delete on G11 grounds and instead nominated for deletion. The argument for G11 has its points, but not enough to warrant a single person deletion, nor do I think enough to warrant a community approved deletion. More likely the afd closes with a mandate to cleanup the article to conform to the standards set forth at WP:BIOGRAPHY. TomStar81 (Talk) 15:45, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Sam Sailor 13:41, 11 January 2021 (UTC)concerns about Heute Journal
I noticed you recently transformed Heute Journal into a redirect to Heute-journal.
The hyphenated title is not normal English rendering. Therefore it would be less likely to be guessed by a native English speaking person. I know that the German rendering is hyphenated, but that seems to be a peculiarity specific to German language customs. (Shouldn't Journal be capitalized in that case?) The original article had a substantive history (50 revisions) going back to 2011. The redirect target article has just four revisions, three of them as redirects to another article. Of the many redirects to each former article, there are more substantial articles being linked to the former Heute article such as Jeanny (song), Heute, and 2020 Thuringian government crisis.
Where substantial edits occur to one article which is later redirected to another article, policy requires (per the Wikipedia license) the article be moved (or properly history merged) to preserve attributions to the contributing editors.
Except for my last point, your changes may well be appropriate. Please explain your reasoning. Thanks, —EncMstr (talk) 19:44, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
I'm not concerned that the article won't be guessed by a native English speaking person since "Heute Journal" is a redirect to the article.
"Journal" shouldn't be capitalized in this case since the whole name of the program is stylized, just like the "i" in "iPhone" is written in lowercase.
Unfortunately, I was neither sure whether these policies applied to this article, nor how to merge the revision history. -- Maxeto0910 (talk) 11:47, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

Why did you delete my contribution on the Witcher 3 article?
My issue is very simple. You deleted the sources I provided for the lead section of the Witcher 3 article. "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful game in the series, selling over 33 million copies worldwide" needs a citation. Every other video game franchise article (Halo, Microsoft Flight Sim, etc) has sources in the lead section of the article. Please do not delete my contributions. BlueSentinel122 (talk) 23:43, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
According to "Wikipedia:CREATELEAD", it is desirable to omit references in the lead section if it is possible, which is the case with the lead section of the article, since sales and its sources can be found in the "Sales" subsection.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 23:48, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Short Descriptions
Please do not excessively shorten short descriptions for articles. WP:SDEXAMPLES calls for "[year] [type of publication] by [author or director]", which means that "2006 sports video game published by Nintendo" would be the correct Short Description while "2006 video game" would not, as it has been reduced to the point where it is no longer useful to distinguish the subject. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 07:01, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
But Nintendo is neither the sole "author", nor the director, but the publisher of this work.
The video game example listed in WP:SDEXAMPLES also doesn't mention the development studio or publishing company.
Per WP:HOWTOSD, short descriptions aren't intended to define the subject of the article, but to give a brief indication of what the article is about.
Mentioning the genre and publisher in addition to the type of work and release year is way more information than readers need to distinguish it from other topics. -- Maxeto0910 (talk) 07:09, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
- Note that "2006 role-playing video game" (including the genre) is explicitly one of the examples listed at WP:SDEXAMPLES and the publisher could be interpreted as an "author" of sort, as people tend to associate the publisher of a game in much the same way as an author or director. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 07:29, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
"Type of work" is stated in the example as "role-playing video game", which can simply be shortened to "video game" and then still fulfills both the requirement of mentioning the type of work and giving just a brief indication, not a complete definition, of what the article is about. This has also been done in numerous of the most-read and most-edited Wikipedia articles of video games such as Minecraft, GTA V, PUBG, Super Mario Bros., and many more.
In the article about GTA V, I even corrected a typo in the short description once (to "2013 action-adventure video game"), whereupon it was changed a short time later to simply "2013 video game" by an editor with over 100K edits.
Yes, it could be interpreted that way, but first, it does not explicitly say "publishing company" or "development studio" and secondly this info is, as already mentioned, superfluous for the purpose of a short description, which is the distinction between topics that could be confused by readers.
Sure, there can always be exceptions, which, however, are extremely rare in the case of video games (e. g., when two or more video games of the same name which have either the same publisher/developer or genre were released in the same year, it would make sense to mention the genre/publisher or genre in the short description [although in such a case this circumstance would most likely be made clear in the article title]) and (probably for this reason) are not specified in the video game example.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 07:49, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Since the lead section should summarize the article, it doesn't have to include sources when its statements are arleady sourced in the body of the article.
From my point of view, most if not all non-trivial statements are already sourced in the article body. If you tell me which concrete statements need to be referenced, I'm sure I will find sources.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 10:39, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
- True. I was responding to a) the edit change in isolation and b) memory that some sections are unsourced still. —¿philoserf? (talk) 13:53, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
- a) The arguments summarized in the lead section are all sourced in the section "Perspectives and arguments":
- "While opponents claim that a basic income at an adequate level for all citizens cannot be financed, their supporters propose that it could indeed be financed, with some advocating a strong redistribution and restructuring of bureaucracy and administration for this purpose.[55]"
- "Many critics of basic income argue that people, in general, will work less, which in turn means less tax revenue and less money for the state and local governments.[58][59][60][61]"
- "Opponents argue that this lack of discrimination is unfair: "Those who genuinely choose idleness or unproductive activities cannot expect those who have committed to doing productive work to subsidize their livelihood. Responsibility is central to fairness."[65]"
- "While opponents claim that a basic income at an adequate level for all citizens cannot be financed, their supporters propose that it could indeed be financed, with some advocating a strong redistribution and restructuring of bureaucracy and administration for this purpose.[55]"
- "Regarding the question of basic income vs jobs, there is also the aspect of so-called welfare traps. Proponents of basic income often argue that with a basic income, unattractive jobs would necessarily have to be better paid and their working conditions improved, so that people still do them without need, reducing these traps.[64]"
- "Proponents usually view UBI as a fundamental human right that enables an adequate standard of living which every citizen should have access to in modern society.[66] It would be a kind of foundation guaranteed for everyone, on which one could build and never fall below that subsistence level."
- b) That's correct. I will add sources for these statements if I should find some.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 14:49, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

SF Masterworks page move
Hello! Would you mind explaining to me why, without discussion or consensus, you've moved the page SF Masterworks to S.F. Masterworks please? Right throughout the internet, the Wikipedia page in question, and the published titles themselves, the series is both named and stylised SF Masterworks. The range's website, for instance, is here. Jonie148 (talk) 15:43, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
Because throughout the article, it is mostly written as "S.F. Masterworks" and Wikipedia should be consistent, at least within the same article. I am absolutely not an expert regarding this book series, and if "SF Masterworks" is the correct spelling, it should be changed back, but the article's title should definitely be consistent with the spelling used in the article.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 15:52, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
- Got you - thanks for your prompt response. I've now corrected erroneous spellings throughout the article for consistency --Jonie148 (talk) 16:33, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Violation of editing restriction at Donald Trump
I highly suggest you self-revert, and this time pay attention to the large "You are subject to additional rules when you edit this article" banner. A failure to do this will likely see an WP:AE filing. ValarianB (talk) 14:26, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
- Like I said, normally I would have adressed the issue on the talk page. However, in this very special case, there was simply no logical basis to discuss from my side, as there is no apparent reason why the word should be written inconsistently.
- Therefore, in this case, it would have to be justified from the editors who restored the inconsistent version why it should be written inconsistently.
- At least my suggestion that it should be written consistently has prevailed now, because like I mentioned in the edit summary, I didn't care if the word was written in lower- or uppercase; I only cared for a consistent writing style throughout the article.--
- Maxeto0910 (talk) 18:31, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
ValarianB's comment is related to the following:
Horribly broken visual editor (your edit summary comment)
Try reading this essay: User:Cullen328/Smartphone editing. I have not read the essay as I do not need it. However, I quite often use an iPad to edit Wikipedia and click on Desktop at the bottom of the main page if Mobile is showing. — Neonorange (talk to Phil) (he, they) 18:31, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for your advice. I edit with my smartphone instead of my PC simply because I'm used to it and it's more comfortable for me, as it's always on and I always have it next to me. I think using desktop view is not an option for smartphones because the screen is just too small. I also have an iPad, but I haven't tried editing with it yet, again because I'm used to smartphone editing (actually, I often read articles on the iPad and if I see something to correct, I edit it on the smartphone).
- If these annoying bugs would occur more often, I probably would consider switching to the iPad. Luckily, these bugs are very rare, but when they occur, it's extremely annoying, which is why I mention them in the edit summary of my correction edit. Apart from these bugs, smartphone editing works actually very well for me. Nevertheless, thanks for the link, I'll read it.--

Consistent linking?
Hello! I saw your edit on United States and was wondering what consistent linking you are referring to. Usually it is appropriate to link the entire concept to the target, in this case "longest network", rather than just one word out of context ("longest"). That approach is especially helpful for people using screen readers or other tools that specifically call out link text; those tools will now say "longest", which doesn't describe the link at all. If you are interested in more examples of this from the Wikipedia Manual of Style, see MOS:MORELINKWORDS. Thanks, Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 02:36, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- Consistent because this linking style is used throughout the whole article. If you find a different linking style more senseful and practical, feel free to change it accordingly. I have no objection to that, as long as it is consistent within the article.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 03:22, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! I still am not sure what you mean; do you have any examples? I spot checked a few paragraphs and could not find any other examples of ambiguous linking. And if they were to exist, I would correct those too. I'll go ahead and switch the links under discussion back for now, and if this turns out to be a larger issue, I'm happy to bring it up on the article's talk page to get more input. Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 03:37, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- Throughout the lead section, for example.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 03:40, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- I see! You're right, there are several examples there, and I also consider them to be inappropriately linked. I'm going to bring this up on the talk page, and I appreciate your work. Regards, Orange Suede Sofa (talk) 03:44, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Incorrect usage of health care
Hello there. I'm messaging you because you keep incorrectly changing references to healthcare to health care in the Japan article when it's incorrect. You state it's to provide a consistent spelling, however healthcare and health care are two different concepts and can be used together. Health care is the direct action of providing care to a patient whereas healthcare is the noun and system of providing health care. All health care is healthcare, but not all healthcare is health care. Thanks. Canterbury Tail talk 15:09, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
- I already read your edit summary in the Japan article, thanks for the explanation. However, I don't quite understand what you mean with "keep [...] changing". Where have I changed the spelling in an article since then?-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 15:14, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
- You made the exact same edit on the 8th March of this year. Canterbury Tail talk 02:10, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- This was more than 1 month ago.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 03:53, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- And? The fact is you made the edit, it was reverted with an explanation, then you made the same edit again. You've done it multiple times and been reverted multiple times, each time with an explanation. That's the keep changing and why I came to inform you on your talk page this time. Don't get me wrong, I'm not having a go here. I don't think you're editing disruptively or anything like that. Just you've made the same edit multiple times is all. Canterbury Tail talk 08:59, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- I didn't get a notification for your previous revert of the spelling, so I couldn't now. I think an user only gets notificated when the "Undo" button is pressed, which seems like you didn't press, as a text (Undid revision x by y) appears in this case.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Hey man, I noticed that you are able to edit the Wiki for the United States.
In the United States wiki, under Gilded Age, Progressive Era, and World War I (1877–1929), there is a photo of an assembly line. The caption reads that the “workers are mass producing automobiles on an assembly line in 1913.” However, the car in the photo is a 1928 Ford Model A Roadster Coupe. Also the image is cited as coming from Literary Digest, dated January 7, 1928. The image clearly was not taken

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.
The edit summary field looks like this:

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Samsung A6 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

Whitespace
Please find something more constructive to do than changing single space characters to double space characters. Your changes make no visible difference to the appearance of the article and only serve to waste the time of people who watch the articles you edit. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:46, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
- Aside from looking not very clean when editing, it makes indeed a visible differrence, at least when there is a too large line spacing, which is often distracting in mobile view. Therefore, I think it makes sense to keep an article free from redundant space characters altogether. Also, I don't think a single edit in an article is too time-consuming to check.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 23:00, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
- I don't believe you. MOS:DOUBLESPACE doesn't believe you. The Mozilla developer guides don't believe you. These spaces in the source code make no visible difference to the rendered article. Show me screenshots or I will continue to disbelieve you. You are wasting everyone's time, your own most of all. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:34, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- I don't care if you believe me or not since I experienced too large line spacings more than enough in mobile view on Chrome. Aside from that, your linked guidelines are simply about double-inserted spaces (which I already said look not clean to editors in both source and visual editing mode), not about too large line spaces, which are caused by wrongfully creating an interlace by pressing enter and are visible in the rendered article for readers (at least in mobile view mode) too. Spaces before or between references ([sentence here]. [ref.] [ref.]), which I also correct, are visible as well.
- I simply cannot see any big disadvantage or problem in cleaning up articles from redundant space characters altogether at all, as it always looks cleaner in editing mode and often also in the rendered article.— Maxeto0910 (talk) 08:52, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

- Was there a reason for pinging me here? As far as I can see Maxeto's recent edits all involve making visible changes to articles. It is ok if those also adjust whitespace. It is only the whitespace-only edits with no other changes that were problematic. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:28, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
Citations in lede
re: [1], it's standard to include citations in the lede for statements likely to be challenged as controversial, as this one is czar 04:33, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
I know, and I clearly wouldn't consider this statement even remotely controversial, as it has been there for a relatively long time and DK64 is a good article, thus appearing quite stable. In the reception section, the criticism of the rap is also dealt with in detail, citing several sources. The statement that the rap has been heavily criticized as one of the worst in a video game is well-sourced and noteworthy, which is why I see absolutely no need to source it again in the lead section.
- Look at the article's edit history to see how many times it has been edited in the lede. That's why it's sourced and what it means for the claim to be controversial. 01:15, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
That's not really a convincing argument since we can simply refer to the sources in the corresponding section in the edit summary when we revert such edits as well. Also, a source code message in which we refer to said section would do the exact same job.

Hello Maxeto0910. I am questioning your edit at Persecution of Muslims, this one; your edit summary says period (only) after sentence
, but you have edited two captions, both of them full sentences, and removed a period from one and added a period to the other. This inconsistency puzzles me; can you explain what you were doing, please and thank you? I think it's fairly clear, per MOS:CAPFRAG, that both captions should have periods ending them as they are each a sentence. Happy days, ~ LindsayHello 16:02, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- You're right; seems like I made a mistake. Both are full sentences and therefore should end with a period.— Maxeto0910 (talk) 16:07, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

US GDP share of world
Should the PPP-adjusted figure be used for 2023 [2]? Historically it wasn't always available, but for recent years PPP figures would be more accurate. CurryCity (talk) 01:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'd be fine with both, though with the current wording, unless otherwise stated, it clearly refers to nominal GDP, as it's a contextually relevant adjunction to "[...] the United States has had the largest nominal GDP in the world since 1890 [...]". I think it could disrupt the flow of reading if we'd switch from nominal to PPP-adjusted GDP all of a sudden, but it all depends on the exact phrasing if we wanted to change the sentence accordingly.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 01:16, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
- Ok I'm going to add the PPP figure inside parentheses. For reference the start of the Economy section already refers to nominal (since 1890) and PPP (for 2023) figures. CurryCity (talk) 07:28, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Re linking names in photos - I think you are strictly applying editorial rules with no regard to readability, which must always come first. That's a shame, because Wikipedia is, first and foremost, a resource to be used. I won't revert again, but I think you are wrong on this point and I would encourage you to think about readers and how they use Wikipedia. Millstream3 (talk) 13:17, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is indeed a resource ultimately made for readers, which is why we should always put the readers first and even ignore its rules when they prevent us from making Wikipedia as readable as possible. However, too many links disrupt the reading flow because it distracts from the essential links that are relevant to the average reader. Also, duplicate links in the same section also carry the risk that readers cannot be sure that the next link will lead to a new, not yet linked article (at least if we assume that they will read the section in one go), which leads to a lack of structure for chronological orientation.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 16:51, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Minor edit flag
Hi Maxeto0910! I noticed that you are marking spome edits as minor that don't seem like minor edits. Minor edit has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute
, such as typo corrections and reverting obvious vandalism. Any change that affects the meaning of an article is not minor, even if it concerns a single word.
That also includes adding templates like short descriptions, removing duplicated information, and adding, removing, or moving links in a way that could be interpreted as changing the meaning of article text. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 23:26, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, I know of this Wikipedia-specific definition. Thanks nonetheless for pointing that out just in case I didn't know about it. I thought that simply removing duplicate information, correcting links, adding short descriptions, etc. could never be considered controversial.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 23:50, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- It seems you are still having the same problem, if you are having trouble interpreting what can be considered controversial or not, then I would suggest using the mark more sparingly, such as for when correcting only obvious errors. TylerBurden (talk) 21:32, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Like I wrote in my edit summary, the edit was, in my opinion, as trivial and uncontroversial as it can get.
- This is particularly obvious from the fact that you have not put forward a single real argument against my edit and have instead only referred to guidelines, both of which turned out to not apply to the edit.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 21:39, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- There is no need to mark any edit as minor. Problem solved. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 21:43, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- If you are having multiple editors point this out in a brief period of time, maybe you should start considering other people's opinions and not only your own. TylerBurden (talk) 22:00, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- There can be a million editors complaining about it. However, if they don't give a single argument along as to why an edit shouldn't be labeled as minor, that doesn't help me to evaluate it at all. Maxeto0910 (talk) 22:13, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- You can save yourself the bother of ever needing to "evaluate it at all" if you stop doing it. Free your mind for more important things. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 23:13, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Seems like a good idea, yes. Maxeto0910 (talk) 23:17, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

- The test for when you should use the minor edit flag isn't "trivial and uncontroversial". You've made many recent edits that were not minor, yet still marked them as minor, and that's both unnecessary and unhelpful to other editors. For example, the specific edit pointed out by TylerBurden is definitely not a minor edit. It's a small edit and it would be fine to note it as such in the edit summary, but the minor edit flag should not be checked.
- As stated in Minor edit:
A good rule of thumb is that edits consisting solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of the content should be flagged as minor edits.
andAny change that affects the meaning of an article is not minor, even if it concerns a single word.
If those guidelines are not clear enough, any time you're adding, removing, or changing words (aside from spelling corrections), simply don't use the minor edit flag. In fact, it's fine to never use it. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:08, 9 July 2024 (UTC)- But the edits I marked as minor neither modified content nor affected the meaning of the article, so that should clearly be in accordance with the guideline.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 22:15, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Changing "commonly referred to" to "doing business as" is definitely a significant change in meaning. It's probably best if you simply stop using the flag entirely if that doesn't make sense to you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:18, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- But then please explain at least why you think that it changes meaning. Because in the context of a business, I fail to see how it does.
- I may stop using the flag when I finally recognized a case of me not seeing how it shouldn't be used, but so far, there hasn't been any, which is why I'm asking for at least an explanation for an example.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 22:24, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- To answer your question, "commonly referred to" indicates informal or colloquial usage of a name, while "doing business as" refers to a legal mechanism that allows a company to operate under a different name than the registered one. They are not synonymous. At this point, I would strongly recommend that you stop using the minor edit flag entirely. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:36, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Exactly, and I fail to see how that changes meaning in the context of my edit. The company operates under a name that differs from its full legal name which happens to be the same as its informal name, making the wordings, though not synonymous, interchangeable in this context.

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in United States, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. "president" and "vice president" are usually lowercase.

- @Eyer: According to that guideline, the word is wrongly written in uppercase in the article in the "National government" subsection of the "Government and politics" section, in the first sentence of the "Military" subsection of the "Government and politics" section, and in the "Government" subsection of the "External links" section, since it is preceded by a definite article. And my change in the "National government" subsection of the "Government and politics" section was correct according to the guideline, since the pure title is given without any modification. And in the "American Revolution, Revolutionary War and the early republic (1776–1820)" subsection of the "History" section, the word could be interpreted as "a title [that] is used to refer to a specific person as a substitute for their name during their time in office", which would make my change there correct as well.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 22:15, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
