:File:TransAsia Flight 235 crash.png ↗

Hello. I object to your action on this image, on several counts.

The image size was well within the guidelines at WP:IMAGERES ↗.

The rationale for the image size was explained clearly on the talk page and in the FUR.

All requirements were met as per IMAGERES.

Did you even read the talk page thread? You certainly didn't add a word there.

Your upload is not an improvement. You have substantially reduced the visual impact by cropping off a large part of the wing of the aircraft.

As I understand it, it is your function to ensure that guidelines are followed (they were), not to override the editorial judgment of the editors working on an article. Do I have that wrong? ―'''''Mandruss''''' ☎ 18:15, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

::I see your revert. Thank you very much! ―'''''Mandruss''''' ☎ 18:24, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Avianca Flight 52 ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Flaps ↗. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article 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) 09:19, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

:Hello, I've posted an update to this section. Specifically, "I concur in the closing of this discussion. Ideally, User:Michaelh2001 should have posted to AN or ANI to request an uninvolved closure of the debate. However, as there was only one dissenting opinion over the course of a month, and I find a lack of consensus in the debate, it is determined that there is '''no consensus''' to perform the merge.".

Recent edits

Hi, Veggies! Your name has come up a lot on my watchlist lately due to your work on photo templates on the talk pages of school articles. I just undid one of your edits, to Talk:Seneca Academy and Circle School ↗. Talk pages of pages that have been redirected are not redirected to the talk page of the target of the redirect on the article page. They are left as is to preserve any record of why the page was redirected. Of course removing photo requested templates is fine, as would be changing the class to "redirect". If you've done any more of them, please undo them. Thanks. John from Idegon (talk) 17:42, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
:{{reply to|John from Idegon}} Thanks for letting me know. I had done that to some other article talk-pages. Those have now been reverted. I was under the impression that if there was nothing but templates on the talk page (no actual "talk"), I could redirect.

Thanks for creating 2017 Delaware earthquake ↗, Veggies!

Wikipedia editor Gatemansgc just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

<blockquote>Largest earthquake in the history of Delaware, previous was a 3.8. Therefore, this is likely to be notable, despite the "weak" magnitude compared to California earthquakes. The one 6 years ago continued notability.</blockquote>

Proposed deletion ↗ of :2017 Delaware earthquake ↗

left|link=|48px| ↗

The article :2017 Delaware earthquake ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗ because of the following concern:
<blockquote>not newsworthy, very small magnitude</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.

Isotope graphs

You've recently removed a graph of isotopes from several articles. Such large changes should typically be discussed first, especially when the reason for them is not apparent. I invite you to start a discussion about what you find problematic in the graph at WT:ELEMENTS ↗, so either the image can be fixed, or the problem understood and remedied.

Survey Invite

I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they affect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take no more than 1-2 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9S3JByWf57fXEkR?Q_DL=56np5HpEZWkMlr7_9S3JByWf57fXEkR_MLRP_3CTAg668hojR9vT&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Obvious copyright violations

Hi,

I saw you spotted a whole bunch of image copyright violations. Thanks for that! When they are very obvious copyright violations, it isn't really necessary to go through FFD. In the future, you could tag them for speedy deletion with an explanation instead of a URL. I've done that for these images. Cheers. -- Whpq (talk) 21:45, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Hoda Muthana and Tweets

For the above article, tweets made by the subject or about the subject are not relevant to the subject's entire life or necessary to accurately describe the situation the subject is currently in. There is no need to add the tweets when they are generally mentioned in the article itself. The case may be different if the tweets were somehow central and necessary for a reader's understanding of the article, but that is not the case here. Going further, why these tweets, what makes them special of all of the tweets she allegedly made? As far as the president's tweet, he has made thousands of tweets on both sides of numerous issues. Yet, we do not add his tweets to every article or subject he touches.

Also, one of the tweets is picked up by Google as the article synopsis and instead of giving a brief preview of the article, the following is what Google is showing when you search for the subejct:

Source for ''New York Post'' article on ''The Day After ↗''

Hey. I looked into that bit you removed as unsourced ↗ and found that it did have a cite, the ''Empire'' article we use at five points in the article, but the cite was removed on style grounds ↗, since the paragraph cited that source too often.

I've restored that bit and the cite, and the sentence after it which also lost its cite and met the same fate ↗. That cool? --Kiz o ↗r ↗ 21:29, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
:{{Hidden ping|Kizor}}I mean, I ''suppose'' that it suffices for Wikipedia's purposes. The problem that remains is: this is a claim about the ''New York Post''. I'd like a direct citation to the ''NYP'' article in question, not a secondary source about another publisher's claims. Also: that particular citation is, unfortunately, rather weak. There's no cited author, no clear issue number. It isn't helped by the fact that the article isn't available online (even behind a paywall). As it stands, though, I'm not going to futz with it anymore. Thanks for providing the citation. -- Veggies (''talk'') 22:39, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''the Arab–Israeli conflict ↗''', a topic designated as '''contentious ↗'''. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;

follow editorial and behavioural best practice;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'' you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard ↗ or you may learn more about this contentious topic here ↗. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. }}

WP:1RR ↗ at 2023 Israel–Hamas war ↗

In the Arab–Israeli conflict topic area editors are limited to 1 revert per article per day. However, at 2023 Israel–Hamas war ↗ you have exceeded this, making the following reverts:
#{{diff2|1180408022|13:08, 16 October 2023}}
#{{diff2|1180410400|13:31, 16 October 2023}}
#{{diff2|1180489390|23:35, 16 October 2023}}
#{{diff2|1180512129|02:44, 17 October 2023}}
Note that for our purposes, {{tq|The term "revert" is defined as any edit (or administrative action) that reverses or undoes the actions of other editors, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, and whether performed using undo, rollback, or done so completely manually. A series of consecutively saved reverting edits by one user, with no intervening edits by another user, counts as one revert.}}Please self-revert any edits you can currently revert, to come as close to compliance with the restriction as possible, and in the future please be careful about any reverts that you make. BilledMammal (talk) 02:54, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

palestine populations

Hi, and thank you for going through all these, but having seen these in my watchlist and having previously admired how the Israeli localities have their populations updated yearly, I thought it would be a better idea to start a template that has the latest Palestinian census figures so they can be centrally updated as needed.

Word limit set at Talk:Killing of Iryna Zarutska#RFC on name inclusion ↗

In my capacity as an uninvolved administrator I have set a word limit at Talk:Killing of Iryna Zarutska#RFC on name inclusion ↗ at 1000 words. You're already over that limit, so you'll have to step back from the discussion. This is not a sanction placed on you, but I'm letting you know here since you're already at the limit.

why did you revert

The edited version of the map that i intended to update into President Loki, but couldn't because only President Loki can edit the map, was updated to show Israeli control inside of Syria, in addition to update that a new government controls Syria. not the Former Assad Government.Alhanuty (talk) 00:52, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Destubathon of the Americas ↗

You are invited to participate in the '''Destubathon of the Americas ↗''', a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to £2000 ($2680) in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ ''Dr. Blofeld'' 17:42, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

Rafah ↗ and Beit Hanoun ↗

Hello Veggies. I want to address the reverts you made to Rafah ↗ and Beit Hanoun ↗, as I believe both edits were in full compliance with Wikipedia policy and I'd like to discuss this before taking further steps.

Both edits removed 'destroyed and depopulated' from the opening line of each article. The underlying facts are not in dispute — that was never the issue.

Regarding Rafah ↗: your revert summary stated there is nothing vague or editorializing about the phrase. However 'largely destroyed and depopulated' in an opening line is a deviation from the standard WP:LEAD ↗ and WP:MOS ↗ format for city articles, which describes what a city is, not its current condition. Furthermore the word 'largely' is a textbook WP:WEASEL ↗ violation, a qualitative and unverifiable hedge. What percentage of destruction constitutes 'largely'? Who determines that threshold? These are questions no citation can answer, because they are questions of editorial judgment, not verifiability.

Regarding Beit Hanoun ↗: your revert summary stated the assertions are cited with reliable sources and therefore are not weasel worded or opinionated. This conflates two entirely separate policies. WP:VERIFY ↗ and WP:WEASEL ↗ are independent of one another; a statement being cited does not determine whether it belongs in an opening line, and does not remedy a WP:LEAD ↗ or WP:MOS ↗ violation. The same standard applies here as with Rafah ↗: the destruction belongs in the article body, stated precisely and cited properly, not in the opening line of a city article.

I'd also note that you simultaneously used different justifications to revert two edits that were identical in nature, which I think is worth reflecting on.

I'm happy to discuss this further and i genuinely welcome a policy-based response. But I would only ask that it engages with WP:WEASEL ↗, WP:LEAD ↗ and WP:MOS ↗ specifically. If no substantive policy-based response is forthcoming I will be seeking a WP:3O ↗ on both articles. Thank you. Kålrabbis (talk) 15:36, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

:I have opened discussions on the talk pages of both articles regarding the disputed phrases in their opening sentences. The discussions are at Talk:Rafah#'Largely destroyed and depopulated' in the opening line ↗ and Talk:Beit Hanoun#'Destroyed and depopulated' in the opening sentence ↗. You are welcome to engage there. Kålrabbis (talk) 10:11, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
::Good. That's the place you ''should'' have brought it up in. Not in my talk page. -- Veggies (''talk'') 10:27, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
