I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they effect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take 5 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Wikipedia_%2B_Politics.
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.
Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 20:44, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
Hi Grimes. Article Categories are often ordered in a very odd way, aren't they? I have always assumed that alphabetic order is the goal. Perhaps re-ordering would be something best left to an automatic bot script? What you you think? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:38, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

Please do not mark books by Stephen Wolfram as self-published (example). While it's true that Stephen Wolfram owns Wolfram Media and they publish his books (along with books by other mathematicians), they are not a vanity publisher. And regardless, according to WP:V: "Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established expert on the subject matter, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications." Stephen Wolfram is an acknowledged expert in the fields of mathematics and computer science and easily meets this criteria. Kaldari (talk) 06:01, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, I was wondering if you could help me with improving this article to see if we can get rid of the ban (article has a multiple issues) which was placed few days ago. Please feel free to make edits, I see you have a longtime experience with wiki. Thank you in advance! Best, Sausa (talk) 19:30, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Hello, I'm about to speak from my carbon footprint soapbox, for which I apologise in advance, but it needs to be said (and this happens a lot on wikipedia). If possible, it would be advisable to do edits on a given page in one go, rather than multiple small edits that cause the carbon footprint of wikipedia to snowball. For example, I saw that you recently did 96 edits on the Emmanuelle Charpentier page in the last 24 hours. That is more edits than in the previous 2.5 years of the history of her page. Each edit takes up approximately 34K bytes of data space. 96 x 34K bytes = 3264K bytes, or 3.264 MB of data space. Data server space is not free, and takes up a lot of energy (rather like bitcoin). I would alternatively suggest copying the parent text of the most recent edit into a separate off-wikipedia text file, doing all the edits there, and then pasting the final revised version back, in one go.
I certainly don't claim to be perfect in that regard, but it troubles me in general to see such profligate use of server data space. A smaller example is your other set of edits on the Klaus Mäkelä page just today, which could have all been done in one edit rather than 4. I'm sorry for sounding like a nag, but the environmental impact of the internet is one of my long-standing concerns. Thanks for reading, DJRafe (talk) 19:08, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for sorting out the references section, which had got a little messy - and for your other contributions, too. I have now had the opportunity to check out the subject's entry in Kutsch/Riemens, and (as I've also shared with Gerda Arendt) I was disappointed to find many significant errors, both small and major. That unfortunately tends to be the case with non-Spanish reference works, when it comes to treatment of Hispanic subjects, of course: the Sagarmínaga article (on which I based the chronology of the article) is not without one or two problems, but as a source on Spanish singers - especially when it comes to basic birth/death dates - I've found it to be extremely reliable.
It would be interesting to find out where the "1925" alleged d.o.b. came from. I suspect, from the singer herself around the time of her international fame, but that's mere speculation! Practically and logically (given that she enrolled at the RCM here in London around 1946, after training in Italy and Paris) we'd be questioning it anyway, even without Sagarmínaga's very clear 1917. Best, I think, to flag up the discrepancy (as we have) without being swayed by the German lexicon, and leave it at that. Zarzuelauk (talk) 08:36, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for corrctly fixing the page formatting for this edit to Neston. Using the ((cite journal)) ref template for the first time I noticed that the ref was displayed as it is now you've changed it, in other words, showing no 'p' for page number (as in ((cite book)). That was the reason why I added the 'p' myself. Can you advise an alternative template or attribute to use for this to display correctly? To me, it looks a bit strange as it now is.

Rossini: thank you for watching out for my silly mistakes. When I made a round of all his works to find some of those, it occurred to me that in his middle period, we might use his smiling portrait for the more buffa operas, and the serious one for the others. The early pic is good for the early works. I'm surprised that we don't have more images really related to the operas. - A great day, that all occurrences of the late photo are gone, from a time when he didn't compose a single opera ;) - just the magnificent and spirited Petite messe solennelle. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:44, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
