Radix omnium malorum avaritia

The thing is, my English isn't very good and I don't speak spanish at all. But there is google translate... https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radix_omnium_malorum_avaritia I found the history behind it interesting... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greed https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/avaritia --2003:D3:E723:2A00:F19B:C0C9:BB2E:FEB4 (talk) 10:26, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Complain

Wikipedia is absolutely left leaning in their page on "For the People" Act. They purposefully,and constantly, dismiss the right-winged statements made by many Republicans. These claims are often unfounded. Furthermore, Wikipedia clearly expels Republicans as stupid.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.132.117.58 (talkcontribs)

Muscial Genres

Hello. How come that on certain album pages, the genres have no sources? Also, what do you mean by reliable source? Why are my edits not accepted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benouimaxi (talkcontribs) 18:10, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

@Benouimaxi: Hi! You were removing music genres from infobox. This is against local policies on musical projects and for genre changes we (as encyclopedia) need sources that claims or falsifies current genres. If you think that discussion is needed, please open a discussion on the talkpages. Members of music projects (which are more knowledgeable than me) should respond with their opinions. By reliable sources I meant Wikipedia:Reliable source guideline which define acceptable sources. A09090091 (talk) 20:08, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Reverted edit

I recently received this message " Hello, I'm A09090091. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to Public employee pension plans in the United States because they seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. related to the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_employee_pension_plans_in_the_United_States. If you look at that page there is already a list of many state pension programs and an external link to their website. I was simply adding a missing link to the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vikebone (talkcontribs) 17:59, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

@Vikebone: Yes, you are totally right on this one. Will revert my edit. However in most examples (in normal text; not bulleted list) this is counted as spam and its links removed. A09090091 (talk) 19:15, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
stop reverting the edits to fake bs that barely make any sense and was created by yemeni nationalists BasedHistorian PHD (talk) 13:53, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
@BasedHistorian PHD: Claiming "bad history" whilst removing refrenced content and giving no alternatives is an edit pattern of disruptive editing. A09 (talk) 15:17, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
you realise then you are pushing for false information then? this is why wikipedia is becoming less reliable plus the reference has no correlation to the battle, choose your words wisely BasedHistorian PHD (talk) 22:02, 4 February 2023 (UTC)
@BasedHistorian PHD: Then show why were sources in articles bad with sources, that claim those are wrong and leave a notice on talkpage. A09 (talk) 22:04, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Ralph Northam

I am curious as to why you reverted my edit that removed Ralph Northam from the U.S. Order of Precedence. He is no longer Governor of Virginia and therefore the precedence box needs to be removed. 173.13.87.209 (talk) 20:56, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi! Infobox should be updated that the ending date is included. What you did is remove his whole mandat, which is not appropriate. A09090091 (talk) 21:16, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
I'm not quite sure what you mean. The infobox was already updated. All I did was remove the precedence part. I honestly do not see what the problem is with that. 173.13.87.209 (talk) 21:41, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
Mhm, I understand it now. Sorry for inconvenient revert. A09090091 (talk) 21:49, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Mo Zhi Hong

Hello, A09090091. So in the wikipedia page about Mo Zhi Hong, you saw that he was born in Singapore. Also, there is a category in the wikipedia page about Mo Zhi Hong stating that he is a New Zealander person of Chinese descent and you can know that his ancestry is Chinese through his name and he was born in Singapore so yes, he is of Chinese Singaporean descent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.252.189.65 (talk) 07:29, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

You are right. Your explanation makes sense, I wrongfuly thought it was speculation. --A09090091 (talk) 07:36, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Username

Random question, do the digits to your username mean anything? Just generally interested.

Cheers

Beeney :) Beeney xx (talk) 21:09, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

@Beeney xx: No. It was meant to be AŽ09, but ž (Slavic letter) isn't easy to type in other wikis if you don't have southern Slavic keyboard. Then the username A09 was already taken and I ended up with bunch of seemingly random numbers :) What does xx mean on your end? A09090091 (talk) 06:22, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Oh right haha. That's annoying. My keyboard on my phone won't let me type that either! Just had a look.

The xx is just simply kisses. Like Beeney is my surname (but the name most people call me) and kisses after it. 😁 Beeney xx (talk) 08:41, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

2022 in American music

Those edits I made were no mistake. Added noteworthiness to RHCP album (and provided wikilinks), and the Bowling for Soup album is verifiable with the Instagram post. That should not have been reverted. 108.54.158.96 (talk) 17:54, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

I haven't seen any official information to be ever defined by Instagram as it isn't a verifiable source (see WP:INSTAGRAM). You may readd it with another source (eg. musical newspapers etc.). A09090091 (talk) 17:59, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
The Instagram post by the singer is all the verification right there (he says the words himself on video). But I guess that isn't enough, evidently. 108.54.158.96 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 18:01, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
I didn't say it's fake, but told you the guidelines about using social media as a reference. I won't revert again, but any better source is pretty much needed. A09090091 (talk) 18:04, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
Fine, I removed it for now. But it's in the works.108.54.158.96 (talk) 18:04, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Information icon Hello, I'm Itcouldbepossible. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Italy at the Olympics—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 14:05, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

@Itcouldbepossible: Are you sure? I reverted IP, which seemed unconstructive to me. A09090091 (talk) 14:11, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
OMG, it was a wrong warning. I am sorry. I was using Huggle for the first time, and was not quite sure what to do. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 14:20, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
@Itcouldbepossible: No worries. I made mistakes too when first using SWviewer. A09090091 (talk) 14:21, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
Can you teach me to use Huggle. I have read the manual, but it does not help at all. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 14:22, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

A response to a message you sent.

Greetings! I saw that I got a message stating that I made an edit to the page of Graham Rix, but I rarely edit Wikipedia aside for correcting grammatical errors. I also got another, separate message about apparently not citing an edit on another page that I had never seen. I suppose that someone who shares an IP address is responsible for editing pages without providing a source. Would creating an account resolve this? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:387:C:7112:0:0:0:6 (talk) 17:39, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi! Registering an account would hide your IP. I reverted Special:Diff/1070477942 as this seemed to be just a vandalism. Somebody who got charged (or is charged) with criminal accusations also falls under WP:BLP policy, which clearly states WP:CS (citing sources). As there was no source to "registered sex offender" I reverted the edit. By your explanation your theory makes sense and creating an account would nullify the chances of compromising an IP adress. Sorry for such inconvenience, A09090091 (talk) 18:00, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Hey Hi I have not removed any content in the page Etharkkum Thunindhavan (soundtrack) here. I have just changed the length of the text in all the versions of the song that’s all.

Hello, A09090091,

Just a head's up, User talk pages are not deleted on Wikipedia so that the page history can be retained. These are the only type of pages that, as a rule, are never deleted here unless there is really inappropriate content, like content that is a copyright violation or content that violates our BLP guidelines. So, we inform editors who wish to delete their User talk pages that they can be blanked if they wish.

If you find silly or offensive content on a User talk page by a new editor (and it's always by a new editor), you can simply remove the content or blank the page. If you find BLP-violating content, please ask an admin to use Revision Delete to remove the content from the page history. Thank you for your contributions! Liz Read! Talk! 22:12, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

@Liz: Acknowledged! Will remove in future. A09090091 (talk) 22:14, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

Rollback

Hi A09090091. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! FASTILY 22:42, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

@Fastily: Thanks! A09090091 (talk) 09:35, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

"Less Than Neutral"

I would like to ask how my rewording of "producer DJ Mustard" was less than neutral, when it was simply paraphrasing. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.34.168.90 (talk) 13:38, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

I reverted it with "fellow American singers" as it isn't objective. Or am I wrong? A09090091 (talk) 14:37, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you removed this sourced, factual edit from Politics of Saudi Arabia, and I don't understand why you would use rollback. I see above that you got rollback privileges only yesterday, granted by User:Fastily, with clear instructions about how to use it: only for vandalism. Sourced factual content definitely is not vandalism, and I don't know why you refer to WP:NPOV in your edit summary. That's much too general. Please don't assume something is vandalism just because it was added by an IP, or because it's negative information. Bishonen | tålk 14:42, 23 February 2022 (UTC).

Edit appeard twice and IP was informed. For me, the second sentence is clearly biased or at least non objective. Such claim wasn't represented in linked article. Sorry if I misunderstood, A09090091 (talk) 14:44, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
Look, discussing it here would have been fine by me, but why do you want to discuss it here and on my page? I've already replied there, and told you you ought to self-revert. Just make up your mind; I'm fine discussing it here, for my part. Your templated warning on the IP's page was inappropriate, and so was Daiyusha's, who I've also warned. Bishonen | tålk 15:24, 23 February 2022 (UTC).
@Bishonen: OK, will discuss here. I am going to revert my edit, but I think the Guardian should explictly say what IP contributor added. But it wasn't explicit. Also pinging @Serial Number 51429. A09090091 (talk) 15:27, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
Glad to hear you will self-revert. But you're mistaken in believing the source has to use the very same words as our article. And I was sorry to see you misuse rollback so soon after receiving it. Please be more careful, or you will lose it. Bishonen | tålk 15:33, 23 February 2022 (UTC).
I'll take care about tagging with the right message. My issue was that "the page"(Politics of Saudi Arabia), "the heading"(Corruption) and "the content" (a sentence saying Poverty is rampant in saudi arabia) did not match. Daiyusha (talk) 16:01, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
And now you too speak to me in two places, Daiyusha... I think I'll reply on your page. Bishonen | tålk 16:12, 23 February 2022 (UTC).
@Bishonen: I lived in a world, where I thought a direct/explicit sentence was needed also in the source. Sorry A09090091 (talk) 17:22, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
The use of sources needs to steer between Scylla and Charybdis: not use the actual phrasing of the source, which would be a copyright violation (if it's more than a few words), but also not depart too far from it, which lays one open to a charge of "unsourced". There can be different opinions of how the IP managed it, but IMO they didn't do too badly. Bishonen | tålk 17:47, 23 February 2022 (UTC).
@Bishonen: Okay, you are clearly more experienced than me, so the final decision is yours. I am happy that this dispute is now over. The reflink should be converted to a full ref, though. A09090091 (talk) 17:49, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Edit reversion

Hi, you have removed my edit of Cucumber Quest. I believe you have done so by mistake, as the edit was not a test — I was attempting to change the author's pronouns used in the article to their current preferred pronouns. Why was this edit reversed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.160.7.79 (talk) 16:17, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Are you sure this is in line with WP:BLP policy? Is preferred pronoun expressed on the author's wikipage? Thanks for answering, A09090091 (talk) 16:22, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
Author has no wikipage, Gigi D.G. redirects to Cucumber Quest. What part of the edit would you say isn't in line with WP:BLP? 85.160.7.79 (talk) 16:28, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
I reinstated the edit - it's good to be cautious about edits that change people's pronouns, because some vandals will deliberately use the wrong ones as harassment, but in this case Gigi has indeed said that they use they/them.--AlexandraIDV 16:43, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
IMHO These two: WP:BLPREMOVE and (I saw you reverted with Twitter message link, look the next link) WP:BLPSPS. Any other source that says the same (and satisfies WP:CITE and WP:RS)? A09090091 (talk) 16:45, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
I don't think either of those applies, as the tweet was made by GGDG themselves (WP:BLPREMOVE specifically says "Never use self-published sources—including but not limited to books, zines, websites, blogs, and tweets—as sources of material about a living person, unless written or published by the subject of the article." and WP:BLPSPS similarly says "Remove immediately any contentious material about a living person that [...] relies on self-published sources, unless written by the subject of the BLP".)85.160.7.79 (talk) 16:57, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
Is the Twitter account really hers? A09090091 (talk) 17:04, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
No. It is theirs. 85.160.7.79 (talk) 17:31, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
That's what I meant. I couldn't really take theirs account as theirs, until I got a disclosure. So now go ahead and revert me, as BLP policies don't held now. Thanks, A09090091 (talk) 17:35, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for your cooperation. 85.160.7.79 (talk) 17:46, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Benjamin Church revert

Hello, you reverted my edit on Benjamin Church (physician), falsely claiming that I "removed content without adequately explaining why". However, I did indeed include the edit summary: "Assessment: challenged and uncited for nine years". Material in Wikipedia must be verifiable through citations to reliable sources. Content that is challenged is subject to removal. Please undo your no-doubt good faith error. 137.26.93.41 (talk) 22:55, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi

hi, I'm no-one in particular and I noticed that you reverted the edit to patriarchy because you claim there's no source for the edit. Can you substantiate that... like proving evidence that women are worse off in education, or jail sentences for the same crime... and the big one... that there is a global conspiracy by men throughout history to keep women down.

really interested to hear how it's not a conspiracy theory - given all the things that are labelled as such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.207.56 (talk) 16:44, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

You removed sourced content. I cite: "[...] as well as broad consensus among academics [...]": please, first raise a point on talkpage and support your claim with reliable sources. If no answers come in next few days I suggest removing it. For now, without any sources, your claims are just original research. A09090091 (talk) 09:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Archive undefined

Hi A09090091, I happened to see this on Special:NewPages just now - apparently some glitch or misconfiguration with your OneClickArchiver script caused you to move two threads from WT:EL to Wikipedia talk:External links/Archive undefined, rather than the current Archive 41. You might want to look into this. Dr. Duh 🩺 (talk) 12:15, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

@Doctor Duh: Thanks for reminder, will look into it later. A09090091 (talk) 12:36, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
@Doctor Duh: I haven't found anything out of place in .js file, any suggestions? For now, I will leave my archiver mistake, maybe we can find a loophole. Thanks for answering A09090091 (talk) 19:56, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
I have looked into this some more; going by this query, there are only 18 "Archive undefined" subpages in the relevant namespaces. Talk:Kirsten Gillibrand/Archive undefined was created more than five years ago and also by OneClickArchiver, so it all points to a longstanding but obscure software glitch. Whether this is something worth bringing up with whoever develops this OCA script (I just discovered that there's in fact more than one) I don't know. For the time being, I have simply moved the threads to WT:EL/Archive 41 by hand. Dr. Duh 🩺 (talk) 05:47, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
@Doctor Duh: I thought iz was a glitch, as all other archives were working just fine. Thanks for replying and checking, later will make a bug report with explanation to the developers. However, I have found there are 3 versions of OCA and only the latest is maintaned. Going to ask the developers. Have a nice day, A09090091 (talk) 09:00, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
