[edit]revision hide request
[edit]hello, there was some pretty bad vandalism on Valley Rangers F.C. I think it might be worthy of a revdelete. Gaismagorm (talk) 18:45, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Why are you modifying the page of Kimberly Cheatle and covering up gross negligence by the S.S? political bias?
[edit]Why are you modifying the page of Kimberly Cheatle and covering up gross negligence by the S.S? political bias? Ashday0790 (talk) 02:21, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- I haven't reverted anything that was neutral in wording or properly sourced. If you want to add information about the shooting, get a reliable source to cite, and use an encyclopedic tone. Joyous! Noise! 02:23, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you!
[edit]Dear Joyous,
Thank you so much for all of your contributions to Yanni’s Wikipedia page. Your work and the help of others has been invaluable in sharing his story and achievements with the world. You all have done such a great job ensuring everything is up to date and it’s helpful to see all of the albums listed out as well.
We are wondering if it would be possible to enhance his Wikipedia page by adding a note about me, his daughter, in a “children’s” section. Additionally, we are considering creating a separate page for my own work and contributions.
Could you please advise on the best approach for adding this information? We’d like to maintain the integrity of the page and fit within the rules and requirements so I wanted to connect with you first. We are more than happy to provide any details or references needed for both updates, or follow any preferred process you suggest.
Thank you for your time and guidance. We look forward to your response.

Why you deleted and blocked my addition? All i wrote is facts and no opinions at all. If you think different, please prove me wrong.

Re: Edit
[edit]- In short, it wasn't me, some user before me added it and I was calling the new edit into question since this was the first time I heard about her throwing the pot. I didn't see a source on it either and deleted it first, but since there was info further up apparently supporting the new content, which the new body cam footage seemingly showed as well, I reverted my changes again. My latest edit was just moving the source it was tacked on (which didn't mention anything about the pot being thrown, just holding it above her head). You seem to be under the impression I had added it unsourced, but since I didn't, your reversal didn't remove it. Just letting you know. Someone more well versed in the case than me or the other user should probably look into that.

I found a lost wiki user
[edit]I discovered that you reverted an edit on Chippy Simmons article by another user, however that user seems confused and left a Talk topic on User talk:Sohom Datta instead of replying to the topic you started on their talk page... They seem to have their birth certificate and were looking for a way to provide proof. What's even more confusing is that I was trying to cross verify this anywhere online, and I only find more conflicting dates. This article is just a few day's off from this user's contribution.
