Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 18:48, 1 February 2019

Minor

I see that you are marking all your edits as minor. Please read WP:MINOR to learn when to and when not to use the "minor" tag. --T*U (talk) 08:28, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Still marking all edits as minor. They are not! Please see WP:MINOR, especially the section "When not to mark as minor changes". Also notice this sentence: "A good rule of thumb is that edits consisting solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content should be flagged as minor edits." Thank you! --T*U (talk) 13:14, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

May 2018

Hello. Some of your recent genre changes have conflicted with our neutral point of view and verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Misplaced Pages, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. Jingiby (talk) 12:28, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

Edit summary, and for the last time: Minor

One quote from WP:ES: It is good practice to fill in the edit summary field, or add to it in the case of section editing, as this helps others to understand the intention of your edit.

One quote from WP:MINOR: Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette.

You have not responded to earlier comments, but I will ask you again: Please show other editors so much respect that you follow "good practise" and good "etiquette". --T*U (talk) 17:51, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Svoboda ili smart

Здравей Саше, понеже направих такава статия: Svoboda ili smart, дали ще е удобно за тебе, да погледнеш македонският й вариант и да се опиташ да го обновиш. Поздрав. Jingiby (talk) 13:35, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Трудно ще направя това защото администраторите на македонската википедия първо прегледват промените преди те да бъдат публикувани и рядко ги одобряват ако те не са по тяхна македонистичка мяра. Sashko1999 (talk) 15:22, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. clpo13_(talk) 18:51, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

Demonym

Please quit vandalizing the demonym listings on country pages. --Khajidha (talk) 14:48, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

February 2019

Hello, I'm DIYeditor. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Luxembourg, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —DIYeditor (talk) 17:37, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Misplaced Pages again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Please cease campaign to falsify/vandalize demonym links immediately or administrator intervention may be required. —DIYeditor (talk) 17:40, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

I do not falsify anything, but just correct the mistakes. And I will post a source for my changes. Sashko1999 (talk) 18:01, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

You've been challenged by two people, you must stop now or your are edit warring. Your source does nothing to establish that Dane should not link to Danes etc. This needs to be established by broad consensus, it is a HUGE change. Learn about RFCs. Work with the system. —DIYeditor (talk) 18:06, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Since the word Dane can mean both a citizen of Denmark and an actual Dane this is a much more subtle and difficult topic than you are allowing. You are misdirecting links that have been obvious to everyone else. —DIYeditor (talk) 18:08, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

I posted a link where clearly writes what's the meaning of the demonym, I don't know what's the problem, for these things who are 100% clear, shouldn't be talks.

https://www.thoughtco.com/the-names-of-nationalities-4088817 Contrast demonym, the natives or inhabitants of a particular place, with ethnonym, which refers to people of a particular ethnic group.

So, the demonym refers to the natives or inhabitans of a particular place, and the ethnonym refers to people of a particular ethnic group, more clear than this can't be. Sashko1999 (talk) 18:13, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

WP:INDENT! Read talk page guidelines before proceeding any further! This is actually a difficult question, but the article "Danes" should reflect that Danes means more than one thing if this is an important change. Someone curious what a Dane is in that context is almost certainly looking for the Danes article! The link of Dane, whatever it means, needs to be to Danes, whatever that means, which is the same thing. You must take this to an RFC or otherwise establish consensus to change all those wikilinks from linking to the very same word. —DIYeditor (talk) 18:22, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

If you click Danes it indicates right at the top that if what you are looking for is not "Danes" per se (the primary meaning) but citizens of Denmark, click the demographics article. No change is needed. —DIYeditor (talk) 18:27, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

No, the link can't be to Danes because the demonym is not an ethnonym, the demonym is a political term which refers to all citizens of Denmark, and in Denmark don't live just ethnic Danes. I have a source of my claim and I will set it up, if you have for yours, set it up, but I don't think that you will find a source where it writes that the demonym and the ethnonym are the same thing. Sashko1999 (talk) 18:34, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Indent your replies. Seriously. WP:INDENT. "Dane" IMO needs to link to the primary meaning of "Dane". The link is not explaining the demographics but a label for the people there, and the history and fundamental meaning of that label is what is important. But if you feel you have a point in changing the way these have been linked for years and across basically all the articles, feel free to establish broad consent and we can discuss why you disagree with all the people who have done differently than you. Right now, at the moment, you are faced 2 against 1. Also, demonym means "native OR inhabitant" - this is not fully contrasted with ethnonym in this case because the natives of the countries are the ethnic group, to generalize. —DIYeditor (talk) 18:47, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
