Edit revert
[edit]Please do not go around reverting my edits. I'll grant you the owl one since they consist of two major groups with distinctive facial differences, but snakes and penguins can easily be represented by one image. Particularly snakes, since their body plans aren't all that diverse. They are known as legless reptiles. LittleJerry (talk) 01:28, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @LittleJerry: Reverting edits with a conflicting reason is allowed, and anyone is free to do such. Just because you think it's right doesn't invalidate my reverts. I merely provided a counterargumemt. I suggest you establish a consensus (WP:BRD) to determine if the collage should be kept, especially since you did not provide a reason for your bold removals. WILD MOUSE what? 01:37, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- You reverted three of my edits from three different articles within one day. LittleJerry (talk) 01:49, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @LittleJerry FYI, it was two in a day. The other was was a day before that. Anyway, how does that invalidate my reverts? The reverted edits were all similar actions. WILD MOUSE what? 01:57, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Sorry
[edit]It seems I clicked the wrong button so the edit was false. eunn (meta · phab) 12:40, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- It's all good. No need to worry. ZZZ'S 12:45, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Cyclone Freddy
[edit]Hey, I saw your edit in the Met history of Cyclone Freddy. I appreciate it. I think you could help fix the issues in the article to meet GAN standards. HurricaneEdgar 21:29, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'd love to. I saw that you were struggling with some of the issues by Hurricanehink, so I came to help since it's a science-related article. You're welcome. ZZZ'S 21:32, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for editing the article! I was expecting you could also address the issues in GAN, since Freddy is an important part of the history. HurricaneEdgar 21:52, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- That's exactly what I was doing! There were some parts that I couldn't do since they require referencing, but I'll focus on the grammar-related issues. ZZZ'S 21:58, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, met! It's been a long time since I started fixing the history. Look at the shape of the article. HurricaneEdgar 15:25, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- It seems that you've completed all of the tasks. I only checked the ones that weren't checked off. Now we wait for the reviewer's opinion. ZZZ'S 15:44, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

Tiger image
[edit]I do agree that the lead image for tiger could be a lot better, so I advise you to start a thread on the associated talk page rather than edit war. Best, Wolverine XI (talk to me) 21:30, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Wolverine XI: I just want to clarify that I wasn't trying to start an edit war, but was following 1RR. I only reverted because the performer didn't provide a reason. I thought about discussing it on the talk page, but it's not worth my time. Someone else can handle it. ZZZ'S 21:42, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
Comment
[edit]Please use direct links instead of redirections when you edit an article. Pierre cb (talk) 13:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Why should I do that? ZZZ'S 14:48, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Pierre cb forgot to ping. ZZZ'S 15:08, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Because using a redirection is uncertain to what link one arrives and it is a step more for the wiki interpreter which is inefficient (ex. using [[tornadoes]] is instead of [[tornado]]es is an inefficient indirect link) Pierre cb (talk) 16:10, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- So that's what you were talking about? I would have done it if the script was also designed for mobile devices. I have to switch to desktop if I want to use it. I'll start using direct links on my laptop because it's easier. ZZZ'S 17:17, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Musinure
[edit]Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Andrew5. It is vital that once you recognize them as such (please refer to Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Andrew5 and previous sock behavior, and take care not to WP:BITE or WP:DBQ), you WP:DENY them recognition and WP:DNFTT and instead just report them at the sockpuppet investigation for WP:RBI to occur.

help
[edit]hello. how do I add the source 030303wilson (talk) 19:33, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Please read WP:CITE ZZZ'S 19:34, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
Heads up
[edit]I think you meant to put this on 2004 Pacific hurricane season, not Atlantic. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:48, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- I was going to quickly correct that. Thanks for the reminder! ZZZ'S 19:49, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
Unpiping links in Hurricane Cindy (2005)
[edit]Hey there, I just wondered why you unpiped all of the links? I prefer piping them so they don't result in redirects, and I'm plannong on taking the article to FAC soon. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:10, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- They were a violation of WP:NOTBROKEN, so I unpiped them. ZZZ'S 21:11, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I should probably include the reason in my edit summaries next time so something like this doesn't happen again. ZZZ'S 21:19, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hah, I totally wasn't even aware that was a thing, I've been doing it the opposite way for years. In that case, thank you for your help. And since you've already started helping with Cindy, I wondered if you might want to co-nom the article for FAC? I'm in the final stages of fixing it up. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:24, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I guess I can be a co-nom. Also, don't worry about it. Not everyone is expected to know everything, like me. ZZZ'S 21:27, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Awesome, let me know when you think the article is ready, I think it's just about ready for FAC. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:36, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I think it's about ready. You're free to nominate it. ZZZ'S 21:46, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Just in case,
