Hello, I'm Jauerback. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to List of competitive eaters have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks. Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 03:03, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, just realized after I finished the edit that it’s been undone before. I also accidentally copy-pasted the page onto itself and then removed everything below the actual content. Sorry. DarkNight0917 (talk) 03:42, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for added stuff to the secret coders page

Short descriptions...

... should be short. There's no point writing long descriptions because if they're not fully visible on the mobile search function then readers will not be able to see the text that is cut off. Per Wikipedia:Short description, the descriptions need to be at most 40 characters (with very rare exceptions). The ones you have added to A Series of Unfortunate Events are significantly longer, though I've now changed them.

If you have any questions, please ask me on my talk page. Thanks! — Bilorv (talk) 00:22, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

Edit summary

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Fettlemap (talk) 18:22, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

Regarding your recent edit here, please bear in mind that articles on British and Commonwealth topics are written in British and Commonwealth English by default. Ficaia (talk) 00:25, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Shark images

Hi there. Could you please demonstrate how the images from shark-references.com that you have uploaded to Commons satisfy the licensing requirements? I can find no indication on the page that they have any Creative Commons attribution, as you claim. In fact the site states: The picture rights are known for all the pictures used. The holders of the rights to all the external pictorial material have given their consent to reproduction. Should you nevertheless feel that your rights have been infringed, please contact [email protected].

If you can't show this, I will have to remove them from the article and put them up for deletion on Commons. Cheers --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:37, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

And a different but related issue: when adding an image to an infobox do not use the "file" syntax, just state the image name. That is, don't use

image = [[File:image.jpg|thumb]]

but rather

image = image.jpg

--Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:46, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Whoops, I thought the site meant that they've also given their consent for their files to be reproduced on other sites, like Wikipedia. Yeah, they can be deleted. However, on the second issue, Help:Infobox#Adding an image to an infobox says, "The image parameter sometimes requires the Wikipedia:Extended image syntax; other times it requires only the image file name depending on the tastes of the editor who created the infobox. An editor can determine this either by experimenting (using the "preview" function) or by consulting the infobox template documentation." DarkNight0917 (talk) 16:29, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

I'll put those up for deletion. Please make very sure that internet sources specifically provide a CC-BY license before uploading material to Commons. Re box images, has your experimentation shown you that using "file:" and "thumb" in taxboxes produces a shrunken picture in a superfluous frame? Please use the image indicated above for those. I'm not ruling out that there exist some special infobox variants that do require more syntax, but taxoboxes definitely do not. Cheers -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:17, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 5

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Austin, Arkansas, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sears House. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:18, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

The Orange Barnstar The orange barnstar- because the "redirect barnstar" has a pre-set message I don't want and can't get rid of.

Autopatrolled granted

Hi DarkNight0917, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! ~Swarm~ ^{sting} 11:09, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Better source request for File:National Hsinchu Senior High School logo.jpeg

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

• File:National Hsinchu Senior High School logo.jpeg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete or generic. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact source (such as the web page, or printed document) where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain, search engine, pinboard, aggregator, or the direct/bare URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. — Ирука¹³ 13:07, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
