Israelite School of Universal Practical Knowledge

My edits are not disruptive this group has the right to correct any misinformation. I even incorporated the edits with the references that are currently on the page. Someone is being biased. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Geniuskid23 (talkcontribs) 03:35, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

@Geniuskid23: Forgive the directness, but yes, you are biased. Information needs to come from neutral sources, not what the group says about itself. —C.Fred (talk) 14:38, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Axos Financial page edits?

Hi C.Fred. I wanted to check-in on Talk:Axos Financial and see if this was something you still planned on working on. My biggest complaints are where the page criticizes the company citing our own materials or says our product is discontinued when it isn't. I defer to your judgement on which edits to institute though. Gfrostaxos (talk) 16:39, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

@Gfrostaxos: Part of the problem is out of sight, out of mind. I'd present the changes, one or two at a time, on the article's talk page with a {{Request edit}} template. That will draw more attention. —C.Fred (talk) 19:24, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

  • AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
  • The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:59, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Djbolkas

You've seen the "editing war" on the 2022 NRL season page I'm sure. But you explain to me how Djbolkas can place such comments as, and these are direct quotes from their edits: "you're a virgin" "do you have sugma m8" "sugma balls" "you should have been swallowed" and not be banned over it? Furthermore I'm accused of vandalism over what is NOT vandalism and have to be formally warned? Blatant double standards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.236.125.200 (talk) 09:11, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

I didn't see any of those in the edit summaries. —C.Fred (talk) 13:16, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
...Because the edit war had gone on so long they'd scrolled off the first page. —C.Fred (talk) 13:17, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

English and British royal mistress mistake

I noticed that you reverted my edit on the English and British royal mistress article, but you were completely wrong to do so. A mistress is defined as only being a female lover, not a male and those men have no business being on a page strictly for females. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.194.197.102 (talk) 03:20, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

As the article notes, "Although it generally is only used of females, by extrapolation, the relation can cover any lover of the monarch whether male or female." You will need to get consensus before changing it, since multiple editors oppose the change. —C.Fred (talk) 03:45, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

How Do I add a map to a train route

I'm Trying to add a map to a article but i find it too complicated. How do I do it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blue Wave Studios (talkcontribs) 20:28, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Blue Wave Studios: The train map syntax is kinda complicated. Your best bet is to find somebody in the train project to assist. —C.Fred (talk) 20:34, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion image

You've flagged an image for deletion but it is allowed to be used. You've shared a news story with the image being used but it was used in lots of places including in a news article I published myself. I will update the files. File:Brian Whittingham.jpg Scot24 (talk) 20:51, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Scot24: You will need to email Wikimedia Commons to demonstrate to them that you own the image. —C.Fred (talk) 20:52, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

I don't own the image it was taken by a photographer but he allowed me to use it for this reason. Best delete it as it's not my own work under my own name. I will ask the owner to upload it as he already has files on Commons. Scot24 (talk) 20:57, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Cod

I’ve backed up by evidence with the link to IUCN 3.1 which be the latest version, I’m not sure cod is your area or intelligence nor any kind of nature but my point has evidence you can’t argue with now so I hope you now understand why I keep changing the status Jackalacktic (talk) 22:52, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@Jackalacktic: Unfortunately you did not cite the latest version; you cited an assessment that's 17 years older that what's currently cited in the article. —C.Fred (talk) 03:05, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

It was the European evaluation check the global one Jackalacktic (talk) 15:12, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

Response to Talk Page Response for Catherine L. Ross

Hi! I am an assistant for the Center of Quality of Growth and Regional Development and I'm not being paid to explicitly alter Dr. Catherine Ross's Misplaced Pages, I just manage a lot of her online websites and noticed this tag on her Misplaced Pages. I'm so sorry about the username, I had no idea that organizational username's weren't allowed, however if you were somehow able to remove the tag or tell me how to go about this once I make a new username, that would be extremely helpful. Thank you so much again for all of your help! CQGRD (talk) 21:07, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

@CQGRD: You've been provided a link with instructions on changing username. And you may not remove the tag, because you have a conflict of interest. The tag can only be removed when independent editors review the article. —C.Fred (talk) 21:11, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

Baltic states, same old story.

Why do you think that for Baltic states the full political name is necessary? As said people born in china have only China, not People's republic of China. People born in Paris, France 1940 have Paris France not, Paris German Military Administration. I have read the old long discussions in the talk, they lead nowhere and are inconclusive. If we use Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic, then do we need to use Republic of Estonia instead of just Estonia also? And what will happen with transitional periods and war times? Like if we have a person born between 8 May 1990 and 20 August 1991, when the state was already named to Republic of Estonia and the 1938 constitution was reinstated, but the state was still loosely part of Soviet union or even until 6 September 1991, when USSR officially accepted the independence of Estonia?

What date will the Soviet Union be dropped from the end, infobox person says to use sovereign state (although we know that sovereignty over Baltic states never went to Soviet Union at all due to annexation being internationally not recognized) there was Estonian Sovereignty Declaration 16 November 1988, declaring Estonia's sovereignty and the supremacy of the Estonian laws over the laws of the Soviet Union. So legally Estonian member status of Soviet Union after this was looser than in EU (tough of course Estonia was under military occupation in reality). I can go on, like in wartime there's even more "fun" political situations, like which village was controlled by which power. Germans reached Estonia 7 July, battles lasted until 2 December 1941 and again from 2 February to 19 December 1944. But maybe it's easier to follow MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE and present information in short form, and exclude any unnecessary content. --Klõps (talk) 23:30, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

@Klõps: So we should list just USSR, then, and omit Estonia? That's easy enough. :) —C.Fred (talk) 02:04, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
