25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi Guyrichtheman! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections ↗ or reverting obvious vandalism ↗. Any edit that changes the ''meaning'' of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit ↗ for more information. Thank you.  TylerBurden (talk) 16:27, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Edit War

I want to make it quite clear that your repeated vandalism and attempts to have things ''your'' way is quite frustrating. I've told you numerous times to stop, yet you refuse to listen. My edit to the HQ9 page are to make things easier for mobile page readers to find images, especially when pages don't do a good job of documenting images outside of Wikimedia (and fail to link to Wikimedia the subject in question). You don't get to inconvenience a group of readers in favor of PC/desktop readers. That's very inconsiderate. So please, do cease this nonsense. Antares600 (talk) 05:50, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

:Ask the adminstrator which revision is the best option for the HQ9 article, your edits or my edits. Case closed. Guyrichtheman (talk) 13:15, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Re: Nihonogo template and Raiden Shogun

While I understand the concept, I feel using both the Chinese language template and the Nihongo template result in throwing too much information at the reader, and due to Genshin Impact originating from China, that's sufficient for the purposes the templates exist for to help the reader find more information in the country of origin's native language. Kung Fu Man (talk) 03:35, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
:To answer your question about the Mortal Kombat characters (and I'm sorry for the late reply I've been busy), that's the work of User:Niemti, who had a terrible habit of putting overkill information into articles of his interest. The purpose of the Nihongo templates and similar is to cover the character's name in the language of their game's release, not based on their country of origin as a fictional character.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:35, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
::So, use the native name for the game's release instead of the origin of the character (even with native names from both game and characters) is okay, right? That idea is so terrible. Guyrichtheman (talk) 14:53, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
:::There's a reason it's done. Genshin Impact is a Chinese game in this case. The opinions on the character will have more weight from their country of origin. So being able to google that helps find reactions from the horse's mouth as it were. I often use the text from nihongo templates to crawl through say Famitsu or developer twitter accounts for bits of information I can use to flesh out an article.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:04, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
::::I still don't understand why though. Guyrichtheman (talk) 15:11, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::Take Sophitia Alexandra ↗. On English wikipedia, nothing would be gained from knowing what her name is in the greek alphabet. No additional sources can be gleamed with that information either. It becomes cruft.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:19, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
::::::Still don't get it why. Guyrichtheman (talk) 15:40, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Argentina logo for women's team

Hi, Guyrichtheman; I read the post you left me (and then erased) on my talk page and that's true, the women's team have not won any World Cup. That´s why I cited the source (news site Todo Noticias ↗, where the 3 stars are shown on the women's uniform also) on the edit summary.

Unless the stars are removed from the women's uniforms, I would leave the badge at the team article for now. Do you think the same? Fma12 (talk) 01:58, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

:Well, it is unconfirmed that they will wear either golden logo or just normal logo on it. Guyrichtheman (talk) 04:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
::As a matter of fact, the under-20 team played with the 3 stars logo. And they have won six world championships. So I suppose the logo will remain for all the teams, but everything may change. Fma12 (talk) 08:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
:::It is shown that all of the Argentina football teams (except the men's senior) have wore the crest without stars, for example: The women's under-20 football team, see here ↗. Guyrichtheman (talk) 07:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, your recent edits to Julián Álvarez ↗ have been reverted because you failed to provide a reliable source ↗.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello. I have noticed that you {{usertalk other|often ↗|often}} edit without using an edit summary ↗. Please do your best to '''always fill in the summary field'''. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences ↗. Thanks!  <span style='color: #ffffff;background-color: #bf5700;'><b> Bait30 </b></span> <sup><span style='color: #ffffff;background-color: #bf5700;'><b>''Talk 2 me pls''?</b></span></sup> ↗ 18:59, 5 March 2025 (UTC)

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Kia K4 (disambiguation) ↗

left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Kia K4 (disambiguation) ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗ because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''WP:ONEOTHER ↗ setup. dab page not really needed'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion. – robertsky (talk) 15:29, 14 July 2025 (UTC)

May 2026

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello. Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia ↗. I noticed that your recent edit to :Jensen Huang ↗ did not have an edit summary ↗. Collaboration among editors is fundamental to Wikipedia, and every edit should be explained by a clear edit summary ↗, or by discussion on the talk page ↗. Please use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit or to describe what it changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief ↗.

The edit summary field looks like this:
{{Edit summary field/OOUI}}

or in the visual editor:
{{Edit summary field/VisualEditor}}

{{strong|Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make.}} If you use a registered account ↗, you can give yourself a reminder by setting {{Preferences|Editing|Editor|check={{int:tog-forceeditsummary}}}}, and then click the "{{int:saveprefs}}" button.
Thanks!{{sp}} —DIYeditor (talk) 21:35, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

''Genshin Impact ↗'' italicization templates

I noticed that you recently replaced several instances of {{tl|Italic disambiguation}} on pages related to ''Genshin Impact ↗'' with {{tlg|Italic title|2=noerror|3=string=Genshin Impact|4=all=yes}}. This combination of using both the {{para|string}} and {{para|all}} parameters when invoking {{tl|Italic title}} is only necessary when you need to italicize only part of the text in parentheses; in cases where all of the parenthesized text should be italicized, like with the ''Genshin Impact'' pages, {{tl|Italic disambiguation}} works just fine and is preferable due to being semantically simpler. IdiosyncraticLawyer (talk) 23:27, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

:And I have noticed that the {{Italic disambiguation ↗}} template has been shown for being considered for merging with Italic dab2. Here is the discussion ↗, thank you. Guyrichtheman (talk) 01:43, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
::Even if the discussion comes to consensus to merge, the proposal was to stop using {{tl|Italic dab2}} and switch all uses of it to {{tl|Italic disambiguation}}, meaning that pages already using the latter should remain unchanged. We have no reason to be using the verbose {{tl|Italic title}} template version. IdiosyncraticLawyer (talk) 19:38, 24 June 2026 (UTC)
::You've now gone two weeks without replying to this issue. Given that the merge discussion has now concluded and {{tl|Italic disambiguation}} is still going to be usable like before, I'm going to revert these changes if you don't give an adequate justification for why I shouldn't soon. IdiosyncraticLawyer (talk) 12:47, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
:::Go ahead, you already forced me to retire at this point. Guyrichtheman (talk) 13:01, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
::::Thanks for making the changes - as a side note, when I created (most of) those articles I didn't really think it was very important which one was used so long as the game title was italicized. You may also want to see my ''Honkai: Star Rail'' character articles; no idea if you've edited those as well, but if you have please double check them. <span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS; border-radius:35% 0; font-weight:bold; background:linear-gradient(300deg,#ff0d00,#1AD); color:#fff; padding:2px 5px;"><span style="color: white;">Gommeh</span> <sup>(<span style="color:white;">talk</span> 🎮 ↗ <span style="color:white;">sign</span>)</sup></span> 17:52, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
