Leaderboard[edit]

Hi, hope you're well I just noticed on the leaderboard that since I have changed my username this morning (DarkGlow to Meena) and my old username was on the participant list, it hasn't counted the reviews I did today. Will the bot update this or will these reviews be lost? – Meena • 18:35, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Meena, you only just changed your username on the participants list, so the initial bot run looked for logs under your previous username (and failed to find any). The bot runs every hour; when it runs again, it should count all of the reviews you have made (under either username). (In summary: wait about 20 minutes, and the reviews should be counted!)

It's updated now, thank you! – Meena • 19:36, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, @Meena! Tol (talk | contribs) @ 19:36, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Okum123567 on Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines (21:42, 4 July 2022)[edit]

Hello, how can I get the big money --Okum123567 (talk) 21:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @Okum123567, and welcome to Wikipedia! I don't understand your question. If you are asking about payment for editing, Wikipedia is edited by volunteers, and the Wikimedia Foundation (the organisation which runs Wikipedia's servers) does not pay people to edit Wikipedia. If this doesn't answer your question, could you restate it more clearly? Tol (talk | contribs) @ 21:44, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hvnnibvl[edit]

Hi Tol - last year you moved the article Hvnnibvl to the mainspace by reviewing it and presumably noting the musician's notability in the dance music scene in doing so. The user Xplicit deleted it via an outcome of a deletion review. I would be interested to have you jump in on the the Talk Space for Xplicit to explain why you moved it to the mainspace in the first place and try to get that page back. As a fan of the artist I was sad to see the page go because I do think he has many notable citations that make him a good candidate for a mainspace article. 172.91.12.245 (talk) 09:58, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, I am not going to challenge Explicit's decision for you. He deleted the page as the result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hvnnibvl, a consensus-based discussion, and I think he properly evaluated the consensus. If you wish to challenge this close, you may do so yourself, either on Explicit's talk page or at Wikipedia:Deletion review. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 17:52, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question from 2Ngqabutho (17:36, 18 July 2022)[edit]

who is the smartest man alive --2Ngqabutho (talk) 17:36, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@2Ngqabutho, welcome to Wikipedia! I think there is no single objective answer to that question; perhaps our article Human intelligence would interest you. Do you have any questions about editing Wikipedia? Tol (talk | contribs) @ 17:54, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Sd[edit]

In the future please refrain from creating a shortcut that doesn't match a long-established case variant, as you did at Wikipedia:Sd. Thank you. Nardog (talk) 08:23, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Nardog, sorry about that! I created it to align with its previously created talk page, Wikipedia talk:Sd, which @Qwerfjkl redirected to Wikipedia talk:Short description. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 08:32, 19 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
