[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Fallujah, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Anbar (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Spy Hunter/Peter Gunn
[edit]Can you please provide the name of the arranger and/or performer? This would certainly make the entry more notable since this information is provided for all other entries in the "Other versions" section.
All of the other versions listed can be heard on YouTube or by downloading an mp3 but it appears that one must own the video game to actually hear this so-called other version!
Why not just put video games in the "In popular culture" section and leave it at that?
JaneOlds (talk) 23:10, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
- Hi: I'm afraid I don't know the the name of the arranger and/or performer: much video game work was uncredited in the early days. It's also listed as 'unknown' on the Video Game Music Preservation Foundation wiki page. This version can also be heard on YouTube — e.g. Spy Hunter (Arcade) Music. I don't strongly object to it being in the pop culture section instead, but I also don't see any positive reason for such a move, and if you look on the Talk page, there's already long-standing agreement amongst editors that it's appropriate here. If we're going to discuss this further, I'd suggest we carry it out there.Mikalra (talk) 23:30, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
Manus Regional Processing Centre
[edit]Hi Mikalra,
I question your edit of 19:52, 11 August 2016 here.
It makes it sound like there are many "Australian immigration detention facilities, located on Los Negros Island".
I believe that the Manus Regional Processing Centre is the only one, on that Island?
Regards, 220 of Borg 03:01, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, I see your point: that was a syntactical SNAFU. I had meant to indicate that it was one of many such centers, not that it was one of many such centers located on that specific island. Fixed.
Mikalra (talk) 03:23, 21 October 2017 (UTC)- Though it was a "snafu", but I had 'fixed' it here (some IP editor added the "only 2" crap after your edit, here).
Doesn't madda! 220 of Borg 03:49, 21 October 2017 (UTC)- Agreed, you had fixed the error you are pointing out here. My new edit restores the point that it's one of many such centers while avoiding the original problematic phrasing and without making any given sentence too convoluted.

Resveratrol
[edit]Concerning this edit, there is no point in discussing such preliminary lab research in the article. The previous sentence about no effect in humans is all that's needed. Such statements need the support of WP:MEDRS sources. You may wish to review this MEDRS tutorial. --Zefr (talk) 19:45, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
- Please reconsider. I would agree with you about preliminary lab research, except that the widespread public interest in the public and sales of the dietary supplement are based exactly on that 2006 report: the lack of replication in normal animals is in this case surely important. The lack of evidence on human lifespan can rightly be said to be argumentum ex silentio. And these are proper scientific secondary sources. Mikalra (talk) 20:06, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
- I know this literature and consumer interest, and understand your point. There are many similar examples on WP of misinformation wrongly guiding consumer commitment. In all cases that I monitor, the article states the absence of human evidence as adequate. Might be worth your while posting a request for opinion at WT:MED. --Zefr (talk) 20:18, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to White Helmets (Syrian Civil War), it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. I removed content that you added to White Helmets (Syrian Civil War) because it draws original conclusions not stated in the cited source. Bennv3771 (talk) 03:25, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Copy vio?
[edit]Your edit to Kim Campbell triggered a copyright violation notice. see here.--Moxy 🍁 22:06, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- I can honestly say that I never even looked at any of those sources, except this and this, which I cited extensively and used quotes where I was quoting. Please restore, or suggest/enact reasonable edits to preserve content while avoiding any legitimate copyright concern.Mikalra (talk) 22:12, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- I am confused here....your adding sources that you have never seen but it's an exact copy? MOS:QUOTES--Moxy 🍁 22:24, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- Let me clarify. The copyright bot you linked claims possible infringement of multiple sources. I had never seen most of these sources (many of which it doesn't seem to be saying are exact copies anyway, and has low confidence in); I had consulted two of them, which as I said I cite extensively and use direct quotes where appropriate in order to avoid any copyright problems.
- I am confused here....your adding sources that you have never seen but it's an exact copy? MOS:QUOTES--Moxy 🍁 22:24, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- What's especially odd is that the bot claims 96% confidence of infringement of this, which I not only never consulted, but has nothing on it about either Milgaard or the SNC-Lavalin affair, which is the subject of all the original content I added!Mikalra (talk) 23:03, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- User:Moxy, I hope you haven't disengaged with this and will seriously review the alleged infringements. I sincerely believe my edits were entirely proper.

LPFM
[edit]Hi, just wanted to follow up on our recent disagreement at John Sepulvado re: whether XRAY.FM is a LPFM station. I'm not at all a radio expert, so I'm happy to drop it, but I wanted to let you know why I thought it was not. I can consistently pick up its signal all over Portland and well beyond, which is unlike most LPFM stations I've listened to. So I had asked the executive director of XRAY, who I know. He said: "XRAY is not an LPFM. (Actually never was. A small station, 🐭 but not an LPFM.)" My conclusion was that it was LPFM prior to the transfer from Reed College (and that station was almost impossible to pick up!) but that the more recent, bigger transmitters had taken it out of the realm of LPFM. You're right that there are sources that refer to it that way, and it's a small detail anyway...but I wanted to share my thinking, and if you have any further thoughts I'm curious. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 07:50, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
[edit] Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Briggs Initiative into Ronald Reagan. 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. — Diannaa (talk) 22:02, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for clarifying this. I was vaguely aware that this was the policy, but had no idea how to actually comply; I will do so henceforth and also try to think of previous instances to credit retroactively.
- Q: How should one credit similar more or less direct use of Wikipedia content in other, non-Wikimedia Wikis, where a Wiki link would not lead to Wikipedia? Just an edit note saying "ode>copied content from the Wikipedia page [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution"?

CureVac edit
[edit]Hello - I made this revert a) because it's not unexpected to have a candidate vaccine fail in a Phase II trial using cancer patients (most do), and b) it wasn't a research collaboration - the title of the subsection - so was in the wrong place, if warranted at all. Not everything a biotech company achieves or fails to accomplish is notable, WP:WEIGHT. Zefr (talk) 20:55, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hm. So if I created a new section and included this information, would you leave it to stand? You're right of course that most drugs fail early in clinical trials, but they and other companies including Moderna are trying similar approaches for cancer, and precedents matter.Mikalra (talk) 22:31, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Abortion in California
[edit]Hi, Mikalra. Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia, including numerous improvements to Abortion in California. One of your edits there happened to change the lead sentence in a way that ended up triggering an edit war at the article by other editors. (Just to be clear: you were not involved in any edit-warring at the article; not even 1RR.) I've just removed the portion of that edit that affected the lead sentence, and left the rest of it intact. There's a discussion on the Talk page about the edit warring that resulted, and you're welcome to take part in it, if you wish. Thanks again for your improvements to Wikipedia. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 21:22, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

[edit]The source you linked to is an opinion piece, clearly labeled a such. First Africans in Virginia is where you need to start, and you need to gain consensus concerning the status of the Africans there first, rather than going to a peripheral article on that subject. I read the reference you provided, and it will need to be supported by a scholarly reference, which should be available if the assertion is correct. Acroterion (talk) 03:47, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
- I will not revert again, but you need to address my concern, not just revert with the same edit summary. Acroterion (talk) 03:49, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
