A belated welcome!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia ↗, Rtrb. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions ↗. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages ↗ you should sign your name ↗ using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian ↗! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions ↗, or place {{tl|helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! <b style="color:#da0000;">Daß</b><small>&thinsp;</small><b style="color:#0044c3;">Wölf</b> 00:58, 30 July 2017 (UTC)<!-- Template:Welcome-belated -->

Barbadian Americans



Hi, I apologize to you over editing Barbadian Americans. 2600:4808:5A53:8E00:E133:8D4F:2DA0:CE4D ↗ (talk) 05:44, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Patar knight. I noticed that you have been adding short descriptions ↗ to articles. However, the short descriptions you added are too long to be effective, such as at :Valancourt Books v. Garland ↗. The guideline is that short descriptions should ideally be under 40 characters long, and no longer than needed. For more information, see the short description guidelines ↗. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-longsd --> -- Patar knight - <sup>chat</sup>/<sub>contributions ↗</sub> 02:33, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

:Good to know, I'll keep that in mind for future articles. Thanks! :) — Rtrb (talk ↗) (contribs ↗) 02:38, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

Fixing typos in talk discussions



Hello, @Rtrb! I wanted to let you know that I just now reverted your edit to the BFDI AfD. As a general rule, you should not edit your own comments, even merely to fix typos, except immediately after posting. See WP:TALKNO ↗ for more details. Thanks, and happy editing! guninvalid (talk ↗) 03:02, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

:Specifically WP:REDACT ↗. guninvalid (talk ↗) 03:03, 18 December 2025 (UTC)
::I don't think changing that typo "deprives the reply of its original context". But duly noted for the future 👍

Non-free use of File:Gluck frame patent 1933.pdf


64px|left|alt=|link= ↗
Thank you for uploading ''':File:Gluck frame patent 1933.pdf ↗'''. However, there is a concern that the use of the file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content ↗. Details of this problem, and which specific criteria that the film may not meet, can be obtained by going to the file description page. If you feel that this image does meet those criteria, please place a note on the file description or talk page explaining why. Do not remove the {{tl|di-fails NFCC}} tag itself.

An administrator will review this file within a few days, and having considered the opinions placed on the file page, may delete it in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion ↗ or remove the tag entirely. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page ↗. Thank you.<!-- Template:Di-fails NFCC-notice --> — Ирука<sup>13 ↗</sup> 13:52, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

:Just the first page is necessary so that makes sense. Would the patent figures that comprise page 1 of the pdf reuploaded at a reduced resolution suffice? — Rtrb (talk ↗) (contribs ↗) 15:09, 8 January 2026 (UTC)
:: I have no objections to using one non-free image in this article. However, it would be worth uploading in a different format ↗. — Ирука<sup>13 ↗</sup> 12:56, 9 January 2026 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!
