25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to :Dimitrios Rallis ↗ when you modified the page, you introduced {{cl|Unknown parameters|unknown parameters}}. Just because you specify {{para|some_param|{{var|some_variable}}}} does not always mean that variable will display. The {{para|some_param}} must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview ↗ button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a '''Show preview''' button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history ↗ of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk ↗ for assistance.
Thank you. '''Zackmann''' (Talk to me ↗/What I been doing ↗) 05:28, 24 January 2026 (UTC)

Apologies

Apologies for recently reverted on Andreas Papandreou ↗, I was confused about which period you assigned to "Himself" and which one corresponded to the national union government. I should had been more careful. Happy editing. '''A.Cython(talk)''' 06:55, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

:No problem, thank you for your understanding and your feedback regarding the efn template. Happy editing as well! John Adams 362 (talk) 13:28, 9 February 2026 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Cicada1010. I noticed that you recently removed content ↗ from :Second Girija Prasad Koirala cabinet ↗ without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary ↗. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page ↗. Thanks. Cicada1010 (talk) 18:53, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

:I apologize for not giving an explanation for my changes. I noticed that although the article is titled “Second Girija Prasad Koirala cabinet”, it covers both his second and his third cabinets, so I created a separate page for the third cabinet ↗ and removed it from the second cabinet page. Again, I apologize for making large changes without explanation and next time I will provide an adequate explanation. John Adams 362 (talk) 18:58, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
::Ok, thank you for explaining. I recommend that you always use an edit summary ↗ when you make large changes to an article. Cicada1010 (talk) 19:02, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
:::Thank you for telling me to do so, I will follow that recommendation for future changes. John Adams 362 (talk) 19:05, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Baburam Bhattarai ↗, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Constituent Assembly of Nepal ↗ was added. 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) 09:35, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

RMTR

Could you add your requests for the constituencies all at once? Since there are a lot of them it's easier to see all of them at once. Thanks. '''Hurricane''''''Zeta'''C ↗ 18:37, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

:I am sorry for my slow efforts, but some of the constituencies do not have a redirect so there is no technical problem with moving them, so I am trying to check each one if I can move it myself. John Adams 362 (talk) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
::Oh, that's fine. I was just saying because you don't have to make an individual edit for each constituency, you can just enter them while checking and publish the final edit when you're done. '''Hurricane''''''Zeta'''C ↗ 18:45, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
:::Oh, got it. I will check all of them before putting in a final list. And thank you for your help, I am really amazed at how fast you are able to respond to the requests! John Adams 362 (talk) 18:47, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

Your username

25px|alt=|link= ↗ Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "John Adams 362", may not comply with our username policy ↗. Please note that you may not use a username that represents the name of a company, group, organization, product, service, or website. Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people ↗ and that you may not advocate for or promote ↗ any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy ↗ and our conflict of interest guideline ↗. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username ↗ by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest ↗, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account ↗ and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.  {{#ifexpr: ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} - 20260427122255) < 5000000000 | {{PAGENAME}} ↗ | }} {{#ifeq:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|John Adams 362|{{PAGENAME}} ↗}}  SNUGGUMS (talk / edits ↗) 12:22, 27 April 2026 (UTC)

:I understand the concern that you may have about my username, but it is not intended to represent the name of any company, group, organization, product, service, or website. I selected the username to honor US President John Adams, whom I hold in high regard, and added 362 to include an original idea. I am not aware of anything else that my username may correspond to and I was surprised at receiving this message, so I do not think my username violates Wikipedia policy. However, if there is a genuine conflict with another group or individual about the use of “John Adams 362” then I will be more than glad to change my username to something more appropriate. Thank you for reaching out. John Adams 362 (talk) 02:02, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

::Do you have any professional or familial connection to him and the Adams political family ↗? Being related to the family would make it questionable to edit such articles (aside from non-contentious changes like spelling and grammar fixes or taking out vandalism/clear violations of copyright). A personal admiration on the other hand is perfectly fine. It's a relief to know you at least definitely aren't trying to present yourself as an incarnation of the President. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits ↗) 01:52, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
:::No, I am not related in any way to the Adams political family ↗ and have no connection to it whatsoever (ignoring the fact that all humans are biologically related to some extent), and yes, I ''definitely'' do not consider myself a reincarnation of any individual. The sole reason I chose my username is to honor the President as the great statesman I consider him to be, and I am pleased that it is not a violation of Wikipedia policies. Again, thank you for reaching out and taking your time to reply, I do appreciate it. John Adams 362 (talk) 02:04, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
::::With the above in mind, I would recommend saying so on your user page in case anybody else thinks you have a close affiliation with Mr. Adams and his Presidential son. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits ↗) 02:36, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
:::::Got it, I have done so now. Thank you for the recommendation, Happy Editing! John Adams 362 (talk) 03:06, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
