Substitution of Uw-* templates



Hello Urbanjester, I saw you recent warning at User talk:~2026-15691-72. It's great that you're giving a warning to vandals after reverting your edits, but it's generally good practice to substitute ↗ the templates, as well as put it under the header "Month YYYY", where YYYY is the year. RandomPerson238 (talk) 03:59, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

:{{tpw}} <small>Urbanjester, you could also install Twinkle ↗, which does both of those automatically.</small> 🫀 <span style="color:maroon;">'''Crash // Organhaver'''</span> ( ''it / he'' &#124; ''<span style="color:darkred;">talk to me, maybe?</span>'' ) 04:12, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Inquiry from a fellow student/new Wikapedian



May this message finds you well.

As a fellow high school student interested in your contributes to Wikipedia, I’ve been following your edits and am truly astonished by your dedication to fixing Foosland history, if possible may you reach out? Your work has sparked my curiosity about the passion that drives experienced Wikipedians.
I am hoping to learn more about your experience, how you select sources, and what keeps you motivated. Would it be possible to have a brief chat, perhaps through email or on your talk page, to ask a few questions? I understand you are likely very busy preparing for college, so I appreciate any time you can spare.

It is nice to connect with you.
Best regards, your fellow Wikapedian! &#126;2026-25063-29 ↗ (talk) 16:28, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
