Maps of Native American ancestries (Kansas, Iowa, Missouri)

Hi Magnolia,

I started discussions on Talk Pages of articles about Kansas, Iowa and Missouri.

Please respond there and write why you think that maps are not relevant enough.

By the way, actually if you include mixed-race individuals with partially Native American ancestry, then the percentages are around 4% of the total population for Kansas, around 3% for Missouri, and 2% for Iowa.

Best regards,

Images on List of burials at Hollywood Cemetery

I see your changes to the images at the List of burials at Hollywood Cemetery page. I would argue that these pages should include images of the people buried in the cemetery rather than the graves themselves. It is not an article about the cemetery - that page already exists - but it is about the people buried there. Dwkaminski (talk) 19:10, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Dwkaminski}} Thanks for writing. If you search "List of burials at", the top articles with photos are the following:
:* List of burials at the Congressional Cemetery ↗
:* List of burials at Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Glendale) ↗
:* List of burials at Arlington National Cemetery ↗
:* List of burials at Mount Auburn Cemetery ↗
:* List of burials at Père Lachaise Cemetery ↗
:* List of burials at Montparnasse Cemetery ↗

:I mean...they're dead? And some of their graves are quite beautiful. I can start a discussion on the article talk page if you like. Thanks! Magnolia677 (talk) 20:27, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

Etcheron Valley Junction Ranch Range

Hey Magnolia!

Sorry for the bad source. That was indeed weak. Though Darwin is the closest town to the radar test range (and connected by road), which I find an interesting piece of information to add to the article.
It can be viewed directly via Google Maps satellite coverage.

Here is a better source: https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/junction-ranch.htm

I'd like to get the green light from you so re add this if ok. Thanks Greggorrr (talk) 19:33, 20 April 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Greggorrr}} That source is also a personal website. Please take a moment to read WP:RS ↗. Also, city articles are not tourist guides of nearby sites of interest. If it's located in the unincorporated county, it should be added to that articles. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:42, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Sophia Ali

Hi. Please see https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1496115/. Her name is Sophia Taylor Ali Ramseyer and IMDb is considered reliable for birth names and credits. I would like for you to revert your "Undo" on her page. The Career and Filmography has been updated accordingly to 2026. If you do not like anything from her Personal Life section then you are free to remove that section, removing 8K characters when they have been cited properly seems disrespectful.

Recent revert to Jonestown article for suspected AI use

Hi, Magnolia. I saw your revert of recent changes by HappyAppleDragon to the Jonestown ↗ article because you suspect the content was AI generated. I understand the goal of protecting policies. However, this user is a student editor in Oxford_College_of_Emory_University/Religion_100_Introduction_to_Religion_(Spring_2026) ↗ and developed the content as part of the course. The edits were prepared in the user's sandbox Jonestown. The course includes mandatory monitoring of content through Pangram. Wikipedia (Pangram) didn't flag the sandbox edits nor the changes on the live article as potentially AI generated. Also, the sources strike me as relevant and real, even though there are some citational issues (e.g., Jonathan Smith, not Jordan; some missing bibliographical info on other sources). In other words, I don't see a reason to suspect the sources as fictitious/implausible by WP:AIREVERT ↗. Are there specific sources you take issue with or passages in the edits that seem "non-humna" in style so that the user could revise? Astra801 (talk) 17:21, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Astra801|Brianda (Wiki Ed)}} Do you mean this sandbox ↗ where one of the citations says "source=chatgpt.com"? Your student gets a zero for using AI. Magnolia gets an A+ for protecting Wikipedia. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:33, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
::@Magnolia677 and Brianda_(Wiki_Ed). Good catch. I understand the ChatGPT-generated link in the sandbox raises flags. Still, the source is not hallucinated (and neither are the other sources referenced). It’s a verified source, and we monitored the writing through Pangram on the Wiki Edu dashboard. Not sure this automatically meets the level of suspected AI-abuse for full reversion (“a completely AI-generated rewrite of an article, with tone issues, hallucinated references, or original research”). Astra801 (talk) 18:14, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Astra801|Brianda (Wiki Ed)}} With this edit ↗, this student added AI-generated content to Wikipedia (they forgot to remove the "source=chatgpt.com"). Astra801, the "The Undergraduate Academic Honor Code of Emory College of Arts and Sciences, Goizueta Business School, and Oxford College" ↗ states:
:::{{quote|Using an artificial intelligence program to generate any content for any assignment (including, but not limited to examinations, papers, homework, and creative work) constitutes plagiarism and is a violation of the Honor Code unless students acknowledge in the assignment the extent to which an artificial intelligence program contributed to their work and outside resources are permitted for the assignment.}}
:::Have you reported this, per university policy? Magnolia677 (talk) 18:34, 6 May 2026 (UTC)
::::@Magnolia677 and Brianda_(Wiki_Ed). Appreciate the concern for academic integrity. But I’d consider university honor codes outside the scope of Wikipedia’s Talk pages.

Your edits to Marin County

Hey - I'd like to ask that you engage constructively with the edits to the article Marin County ↗ rather than do wholesale and sweeping reverts based on poor fact checking, like you did earlier. Several of the films I added are, ''if anything'', more relevant to the subject of "Marin County in popular culture" than the previously existing list, particularly ''The Serial'' and ''Serial'', and in fact, this glaring omission was already mentioned in the archived talk page. (I've put that back on the current version of the talk page.) I'll discuss this further on the Talk:Marin County, California ↗.

Hello! I hope you are having a good day. I want to know more of why you reverted my edit on the Sterling article. You listed as wiki isn't a travel guide but I don't think it breaks that. 1.

Hey there, please make sure to not submit duplicate reports for the same thing on WP:EFFPR ↗. People usually get to the reports within a few minutes to a few hours. I also have looked at your report. I believe it was fine, just that the filter was triggered due to you adding the archive.today as an archive url. As Archive.Today has been deprecated on Wikipedia due to the practices they are doing, they are no longer allowed on Wikipedia as a new archive URL, and they are being replaced to The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, at web.archive.org.

English as an ethnic origin

Hi I’ve seen you have mentioned that English is not an ethnic origin on the United States census which is actually a false statement on your side.

Edit on St. Lawrence University

I recently edited the St. Lawrence University page updating the section on student housing and theme cottages. I added the P.O.W.E.R. house to the list of theme houses on campus. The information I provided can be found here
https://www.stlawu.edu/student-life/housing
“the P.O.W.E.R. House is dedicated to living an endurance sports-based and/or healthy lifestyle. Members come from all kinds of sports backgrounds—from Nordic skiing and cycling to mountain biking, rock climbing, running, and beyond.“

I’ve also provided a link and quote below from a former P.O.W.E.R. house resident who wrote an article about the house in the school newspaper, The Hill News.

“The P.O.W.E.R. House is centered around healthy living and physical activity. While not all the residents are student athletes, we are all dedicated to being active in any way we can! All the residents are very supportive and open to trying a wide array of physical activities. We do our best to help each other remain healthy, both physically and mentally.”
-Cole Jacobsen Feb 20, 2025
https://thehillnews.org/features/colejacobsen/what-is-the-power-house/

Additionally, although anecdotal my sister was the president of the P.O.W.E.R. house the past year, and I have spent a considerable amount of time in the house and interacting with residents, participating in events and other house activities. Samcunningham1 (talk) 02:16, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the help (Sands Point, New York)

Hi, Magnolia,

Just wanted to thank you for your help with the Sands Point article clean-up.

I was wondering, just for my own future reference, if you have a rule-of-thumb when it comes to subheadings, that you would recommend. I agree with what you explained in the edits trimming down on some of the subheadings (that some were unnecessary). And while I personally feel more comfortable with ''some'' subheadings, I also don't want to go overboard. Moreover, I tend to interpret WP:USCITIES relatively conservatively, although I do believe ''limited'' discretion (so long as it remains compatible therewith) may be appropriate in instances like government sections (in other words, in sections where there are so many different layers or components (but again that's just me). You have a very valid point, though – and after seeing your edits, I can see how the way I originally did it may have unintentionally been a little excessive (I apologize for that) – both in terms of the subheadings and also in wording. I'm open to new techniques, and will absolutely be incorporating much of the feedback you provided in your edit summaries on the article into how I make some future edits, site-wide.

Thank you again.

Cheers,

Infrastorian (talk) 03:46, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Infrastorian}} Thanks for writing. There's a guideline someplace about section headings, but if the text is just a sentence or two, and it's a similar topic to other text in nearby sections, I just combine it all under one heading. Readers will figure it out. I think the article is more encyclopedic now that it's been trimmed, but there's still a lot of content that can be included, particularly to the arts and culture section. Cheers. Magnolia677 (talk) 15:09, 21 May 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you so much for this great feedback and assistance, Magnolia! I genuinely appreciate it.
::What you're saying makes a lot of sense – and I completely agree. In hindsight, perhaps individual subheadings for things with just 1-2 sentences and similar, topic-wise, to things mentioned nearby in other places (like "New York State Assembly" and "New York State Senate" – and, themselves, under a higher subheading of "New York state representation") was more redundant and excessive than it needed to be. Moreover, I absolutely agree that it ''does'' indeed read more encyclopedic now, and that there is additional content not yet included that can be added. The trimming you did makes the article overall flow more encyclopedically.
::Once again: thank you for taking the time to share all this with me, and for all your help. I am going to be keeping all this advice in mind going forward.
::With much appreciation, Infrastorian (talk) 16:40, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

Unnecessary reverts that did have citations

Hello Magnolia. I am writing to you due to some reverts that were made due to “citations” not being there. The vast majority already did have efficient sources like first star of the month sentence, injury or post playoff injury sentences and some key goals and certain things were up to certain points rather than finalized and some things once in a while might not even need them since they blend in with a paragraph already. Please look more carefully at things before reverting rather than skim. I am glad to answer questions if needed and if certain things weren’t clear at first, I apologize.

Removal of entries from Austin Historical Misconceptions

Hi Magnolia - I see you removed two recent posts about a) confusion of Montopolis neighborhood vs. the Republic of Texas era townsite, the age of each, and b) confusion about the founding of Waterloo .. the date, the nature. These are issues that we (Travis County Historical Commission in conjunction w/ Austin History Center and Austin Parks and Rec) have tried to communicate but continue to circulate, in some part due to past Wikipedia articles and vandalism, interns that didn't do good research, but in some part to other websites. These are hardly trivial issues for those of us that try to tell a factual history of the city and county. These things show up in marker applications, websites, RTHL requests, newspapers, podcasts etc. I would ask we add these back w/ whatever edits you think appropriate. rdenney (talk) 14:59, 31 May 2026 (UTC)

:Magnolia, here's an example. I have been trying for over three years to get this website corrected.

Image Removal on Anniston, Al ↗ per MOS:TEXTASIMAGES ↗

Hello, I saw your revert ↗ and wanted to understand more. Setting aside the licensing question ↗ for now, I don't think MOS:TEXTASIMAGES fits here. I understood TEXTASIMAGES to be about accessibility of content within an image, for instance when an article uses images to convey information beyond the article's coverage in prose. Here, the adding user had just added a few sentences ↗ on the topic, and the image illustrates that text instead of replacing it. The caption {{tq|The Vise Family Singers ↗ of Anniston at a music contest in 1974}} could be improved, but I didn't see the image being used in place of text.

Deer Park, New York

Hello,
I would like to discuss the removal of the information I added to the Deer Park article.
The edit summary stated that the supporting links were dead and that readers should not have to look at maps to verify information. However, when I checked the citations, both sources were functioning properly.
The Long Island Zoning Atlas is not simply a map requiring readers to draw their own conclusions. When Deer Park is selected, the information panel directly provides administrative information, including school district information. Because the information is explicitly presented by the source, readers are not being asked to interpret boundaries themselves.
In addition, the fire protection information was supported by the official Deer Park Fire Department website, which directly identifies the department and the community it serves. I am therefore unclear as to why that information was removed as well.
If there are concerns regarding the reliability of the sources or if there are preferred sources that would better support the information, I would be happy to work toward a solution. However, I do not believe the explanation provided in the edit summary accurately reflects the content of the cited sources.
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to discussing the matter further. <small class="autosigned">— Preceding unsigned ↗ comment added by Moneyjules 22 (talk • contribs ↗) 12:47, 1 June 2026 (UTC)</small>

Wikihounding

Hi user Magnolia677, I would like to note that you undid my edits on Horton, Alabama ↗, the reason you gave was for the postal office in MOS:OL ↗, and I did look through there. I didn't see any mention against postal offices there, and would like to bring MOS:LAYOUT ↗ to the table supporting my edits of adding sections to the page. This alone would be something of a disagreement and I did note my reasons in Horton's talk page, but I noticed you followed my edit to Jim Morrison ↗'s Wikipedia page and undid my link addition.

She is associated with Farmington and has received independent media coverage for her tennis accomplishments, including winning the Utah 6A state singles championship and signing with the University of North Carolina tennis program. In addition, she has developed a large social media following and has been covered by news outlets discussing both her athletic career and public profile. Could someone explain the specific concern regarding notability or sourcing? If stronger sources are needed, I can provide additional reliable references for discussion.

Annafreylover, the rules are straightforward for such list: the person should have an article on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Write the article first ↗. Drmies (talk) 15:17, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

The "Five Reversions"

Say, Magnolia677, the five edits that you reverted are not AI, they are by myself, Mike in Albuquerque, and they made an improvement to the page. I also made other additions to that same paragraph over the past couple of days. I hope that you don't mind if I try to undo your reversions...they were good edits, and contained information that is readily available, and not obscure in any way. You certainly can't argue with any of the factuality therein. They had fortifications because the "native americans" (a shit descriptor if there ever was one), many of whom were allied with the British, kept tryin' to kill them. I don't yet have an account on Wikipedia yet; I don't want one until, as Steve Gould famously said, "I have landed", meaning that I have a few more personal changes to go through before I am ready for all that. Thanks. ~2026-33318-71 ↗ (talk) 01:26, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

7 Reversions on WolfQuest

Hi @Magnolia677, the 7 edits I've made on the WolfQuest article over the past several days are '''<u>not AI</u>'''. I recently picked up playing it again and watched some documentaries on Yellowstone about the wolf project, saw the article wasn't very updated and decided to work on that. Every bit of what I've written has been 100% myself, everything is cited, and if you look at my userpage you can see numerous notes/ideas I've written for myself about WolfQuest. :-) Rattusmischief (talk) 03:25, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

John H. Gregory

Hello Magnolia 677. I apologise for my somewhat terse edit summary while undoing your undo. I hadn't noticed that an article on John H. Gregory had been deleted in 2013, and presumptuously thought you had seen my change as merely bracketing the name, not as adding an interlanguage link to an article on the topic. I guess I've encountered this kind of misunderstanding while adding interlanguage links, but I'm now pretty sure it wasn't the case here. Either way, I'm sorry for writing "don't just revert" in my edit summary. ---Sluzzelin <small>talk</small> 22:48, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Sluzzelin}} Thanks for writing. After you reverted and linked to H:FOREIGNLINK ↗ I realized your edit was correct, and I shouldn't have reverted in the first place. It's all good. Cheers! Magnolia677 (talk) 10:14, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

Photo

I took a photo of a field near my house in Commack in May of last year, could I use that photo? Cats780 (talk) 16:01, 18 June 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Cats780}} It depends on what article you want to add the picture to. On the Commack article? Probably not relevant. On an article about fields? Maybe. Just upload it to the Commons and start a discussion on the talk page. See what the community thinks. Cheers. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:08, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

Bensonhurst

Your removal of the mention of the Long Island City/LIC neighborhood in the list of Asian/Chinese communities in other boroughs was incorrect because LIC is in Queens, not Brooklyn. Fastfoodfanatic (talk) 12:51, 19 June 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Fastfoodfanatic}} Could you please send a link to the diff? I recall making a correct edit, but using the wrong edit summary. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 12:55, 19 June 2026 (UTC)
::Sorry for the confusion (I also was wrong about the section being only for "other boroughs", which it wasn't). I see that you removed it for being unnecessary, which makes sense. Hope that wasn't too annoying. Fastfoodfanatic (talk) 15:26, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

Consensus through edit history

Hello {{u|Magnolia677}}, at Calgary ↗, {{tqq|The edit history shows a consensus for inclusion}} is generally not an option. Consensus obtained through editing only exists until it is disputed or reverted ↗, at which time a talk page discussion can lead to the needed consensus, and the onus to do so is on those favoring inclusion ({{slink|Wikipedia:Verifiability#Build_consensus}}).

So please, instead of referring to an article's history for evaluating a "consensus" and participating in an edit war, start a discussion on the article's talk page or at very least point to an existing discussion when reverting. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:40, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

Tohatchi, NM

Hello Magnolia677 ↗ - You reverted my addition of an image of a Two Grey Hills rug minutes after I published it: did you look at the context of this page beforehand? Tohatchi is the location of the Two Grey Hills trading post, so should it really be necessary to provide a further citation? (I'm usually pretty good with adding refs, but this one stumps me) Kokopelli-UK (talk) 20:40, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

Atlanta ↗

:Apologies for my replacing your image under "Atlanta: Talk." I thought the war image might be confusing to readers (the slave-auction photo is the one I object to as a lead-in top-level photo). I admit that I did overstep. Reading the ongoing RfC on the Carousel Project, I am confident that these carousels will be ended. Most responses to the RfC have mentioned the same things I have: the randomness of the selection of two images—which are permanent in all smartphone viewing—and the rushed rollout of the project itself.

Miss Arizona and Miss Arizona’s Teen 2026

Check social media @missazorg. They list Ellie Duffin as the new Miss Arizona’s Teen and Victoria Vredevogood as the new Miss Arizona. There’s no news article right now but it’s been confirmed by the official Miss Arizona Organization. I would never add incorrect information. Unsourced? Maybe.

Citizen Vigilante edits

Hello! I know you're an observer to the current Citizen Vigilante discussions between myself and R. Bardghji. I know you are an experienced editor and just want to clear things up so you are aware. I've been working on this page for a while now and am attempting to explain wiki policy to R. Bardghji, who is a new account a few weeks old. I'm not trying to Bludgeon any conversations or intentionally violate the 3RR rule. I've had to explain WP:ATTRIBUTEPOV ↗ to him when he responded on my talk page, after which he started to properly attribute biased statements on the page itself. I was hoping I could help explain other policies to him, but it seems to not be working.

I admit my edits have been a bit sloppier and in smaller chunks lately as I've been editing on my phone, which makes it more difficult. I'll be honest I'm getting exhausted here, as R. Bardghji frequently reverts myself and other editors on this page per the edit history, has edit warred with other users before and was previously ↗ warned about this on his talk page before he blanked it. I've left another message letting him know he needs to stop reverting and making changes without explanation and trying to explain WP:DRNC ↗. I'm not trying to bludgeon anything here. When he claims ↗ that a source doesn't say what it does, then I have to go and specifically point out that it does ↗, it gets tiring. I see this may look like bludgeoning from the outside, so I hope this clears things up a bit. BootsED (talk) 19:47, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|BootsED}} Thanks for writing. Down here in the Delta we'd say you two are busier than a one-eyed cat watching two mouse holes. Not sure I have good advise for you. Do me a favour...look at Hilton, Manitoba ↗, an article I wrote last week. Guess how many edit disputes I've had over this article? None! Zero. Bupkis. Know why? Because it's not radioactive like ''Citizen Vigilante ↗''...or better than that Hunter Biden laptop controversy ↗. Those on the left want to unearth every cherrypicked "reliable source" they can find to smear the film, while those on the right are busy doing the same finding sources praising it. Keep battling it out on the talk page and wait for the dust to settle, and don't take it too seriously. Hey cheers! Magnolia677 (talk) 20:21, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
