Thank you for paying attention to my page! I'm a little confused, however, because I used the visual editor, and I thought it automatically formatted elements such as links to Wikipedia pages and citations (unless I manually input information for those, which I did in several cases).
I don't want to reverse your corrections because I'm sure you wouldn't have done them if they weren't needed. But I do want to learn about this issue and how to avoid it. Somebody else had told me to get rid of the external links in my copy, but I couldn't figure out what he meant because I thought my text links were to Wikipedia pages, and my external links appeared in citation footnotes. This is my first serious page contribution and I sweated every detail, so I'm trying to absorb whatever guidance experts like you can provide. Again, thanks for the look at the page. It appears you are a reviewer ... so what did you think? How can I get this page approved, or what other work do I need to do? I've been tightening the text and cutting the discography (and keep going back to trim more), but I think it reads pretty well, has solid attribution (with external links in the process of being backed up in the archive) and is about a notable person worthy of coverage. I hope you don't mind me asking so many questions, but I sure appreciate any input you might be inclined to offer. ~~~~ TexasEditor1 (talk) 09:18, 9 August 2022 (UTC) |

Thank you for those corrections on the Clipperton Island article. I've been working on it all day and I know I've let little things fall through the cracks. Honestly, thank you for catching my silly mistakes and taking the time to fix them.

@Cmr08:, Thanks for changing the px and adjusting the other stuff! Greatly Appreciate it! One question though, how do the px's work? I honestly was just copying another article's format since I've only been here for less than 3 weeks.
Oh, ok. That makes sense. Thanks for the help! The Capitalist forever (talk) 05:46, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
Hi there @Cmr08,
I wanted to give you a heads up on some of your edits to my pages (eg: Anikv, The Limba, Niletto, etc.). In case you didn't see, those are pages I translated from the Russian Wikipedia, so there was bound to be some errors here and there. I was merely trying to at least start those pages here on the English Wikipedia, so I didn't really do as thorough of a job as I should have. Also keep in mind that I don't bring every single thing over to here (either because I chose not to translate it, the sources there are blacklisted here, or some other reason). That's why there are expansion tags on those pages for editors that might be interested in doing so. That being said, thanks for the edits you made to them. They're very helpful.

Hello, thank you very much for your contributions on my article (Boukari Laouali). Can you help me introduce links on the page to remove the tag (orphan)? Thanks in advance Wikipedien28 (talk) 11:55, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
Hello Cmr08!
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Thanks for your contributions to Kelvin May. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Ktkvtsh (talk) 04:25, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

In this edit you asked why you were reverted. We encountered an edit conflict. I tried to retain your edits, but apparently I missed some. Apologies. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:36, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
Please help create subsections (Background/Education and career) on the Emmanuel Ibru page. I don't know how to do that yet. Thank you. Jay Kenechukwu (talk) 08:19, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi Cmro8, thank you for your recent edits to the George Bain (academic) page. I have inserted some additional references and removed the tag relating to disclosure of payment as I have now added the paid disclosure to my user page and flagged it up in a recent edit summary,
I’m a newbie to Wikipedia. I've been a professional copy editor for many years and George Bain engaged me to edit his autobiography last summer. While doing this I realised ‘his’ previous Wikipedia page contained several factual errors and that there were also significant omissions in relation to his career. In the interests of accuracy, I made several substantial corrections to this page some months ago. Since then, the page had remained relatively untouched until I posted a help query, after which the tags appeared. My help query related to the side bar. I’ve been unable to insert a reference to Bain’s role as Director of the Industrial Relations Research Unit at the University of Warwick, which is a major omission. Is this something you can help with?
As several references have now been added, can the tags referring to citations now be removed? Also, I’m not sure how to address the tag stating that the page reads like a résumé. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks and best wishes. Ashanza5 Ashanza5 (talk) 18:11, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
