Just a small edit to say thanks a ton for passing along the vandalism report today! Has now been resolved, with the vandal pages deleted. :) Cheers! — JezzaHehn (talk) 03:36, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
Disruptive editing
I made an edit, and left a clear justification in the edit summary. You undid that edit without bothering to explain why, and then left me a talk page message falsely accusing me of not giving a valid reason for my edit. Kindly explain why you did this. Zqzkqzq (talk) 11:47, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
- The edit I reverted offered no explanation at all. The explanation you did offer, in the edit that was reverted by another editor, was woefully insufficient. Moreover, accusations of "disruptive editing" are not in keeping with WP:AGF. You were WP:BOLD, two other editors reverted you, and instead of discussing your change on the talk-page, you accuse people. Not cool. Kleuske (talk) 11:51, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
- The edit you reverted had the following explanation:
- removed text from lead that alleged "historical reasons" without specifying any reasons, offered opinions ("misleadingly"), promoted the POV of a source ("in the words of"), did not logically fit in the text, and did not summarise anything from the body of the article
- You reverted without bothering to give any explanation at all. And yet you have now twice dishonestly accused me of not explaining my edit. You do not seem to have previously edited that article so it seems you reverted purely for the sake of reverting. You may, if you wish, argue against any of the four separate reasons I gave for removing that text. You do not have the right to undo edits for no reason. Zqzkqzq (talk) 11:59, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
- The edit you reverted had the following explanation:
Wait
I was editing on MQ 9 Reaper page on which you have reverted. I was just rearranging according to alphabet. Please see to it. I ame Shears (talk) 13:54, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
- @I ame Shears: My bad. Apologies for the inconvenience. Kleuske (talk) 13:59, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
Gender and sexuality discretionary sanctions
![]() | This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor. |

About Susan Jordan
@Kleuske and MurielMary: perhaps a possible way to go forward here might be draftifying this article for while as an alternative to outright speedy deletion? Pete AU aka --Shirt58 (talk) 10:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
Non realiable sources
I will. For Areddu I thought it was clear: it was a blogpost. For more context, this person has been banned from italian wikipedia because he is a serial spammer. For Gigi Sanna, well he is a journalist that prints his fringe theories in a printshop. Anyway I'll be more explicit now, --PedroPistolas (talk) 18:50, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
"Thats not how you add tags"
Hi, i realised that after i made it, Wikipedia is pretty confusing at first. Reading the Tutorial page as we're speaking, Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by En svensk med kritik (talk • contribs) 14:36, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
Request for protect my userpage and edit history
I request you to hide my edit history to new users and add a semi protection to my userpage because this guy is psycho and a small kidd he is trying every sigle possibility to mess up with me. Thank you Vikassharmasafidon (talk) 09:41, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Vikassharmasafidon: Sorry. I'm not a mod. I can't hide/protect anything. Kleuske (talk)`
Thanks, where from I can get the list of mods. Vikassharmasafidon (talk) 09:49, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

University of Sheffield
Hi, I am trying to improve the University of Sheffield page. The section about Controversies includes a very subjective section relating to the Archaeology Department. I tried to rewrite this to be more objective but the original author seems to overwrite it with the previous biased entry. The original author appears to have a serious conflict of interest which is apparent in the tone of the piece. The piece includes libellous content in its wording. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.167.254.172 (talk) 11:16, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- You have a Conflict of Interest and are trying your best to bend the section your preferred way. Failing that, you resorted first to WP:BLANKING, now to blaming others. If you were serious, you would raise the issue on the talk-page, which you have not. If you are wondering how I know that, whois is my close personal friend. Kleuske (talk) 11:21, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
Source for my revision
You reverted my revision as of 13:08, 14 October 2021 at Köchel catalogue and asked for a source. Well, I actually wrote the revision according to this page Church Sonatas (Mozart). Apparently it is wrong. Rômulo de Assunção Rondon Mello (talk) 00:15, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the info
Thanks for the heads-up on my page for the company I have a COI with [Life Technology Ltd]. I hopefully have declared it properly. I've not used Wikipedia in a few years and I cant remember my old email (lost account) or username so I started from scratch, but hopefully I will be able to help out the community again. Please let me know if there are any issues and i will do my best to correct them. Ultimatum020 (talk) 12:34, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Ultimatum020: Per the policy:
Paid editors must provide links on their Wikipedia user page to all active accounts at websites where they advertise, solicit or obtain paid Wikipedia-editing services. If such an account is deleted or removed, any corresponding links on the Wikipedia user page must remain visible for at least one week.
- So, no. You did not declare it properly. Besides, disclosing a conflict of interest does not imply you get to promote the business in question. The same rules for verifiability, neutrality and notability apply. Kleuske (talk) 12:43, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
It wasn't a personal attack on anybody on De Clerk's talkpage.
It was on De Klerk himself, and it's not as if he's here to be offended, now is he? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.73.228.124 (talk) 10:57, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
Help with semi-protection and not being able to edit
Hi Kleuske, you've noted that i sourced poorly on the wikipage "Shitcoin". I agree and would like to rectify the mistakes I made, but I'm unable to do so as a semi-protection has been placed, and I can no longer edit pages. I will likely be the editor for this page for a good while, so please "unblock" me. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brian Weissmann (talk • contribs) 16:26, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Brian Weissmann: I have reverted your edits twice, because your contributions were unsourced and the crypto-coin is non-notable. You ignored that three times and restored an unsourced, non-notable promotional blurb. At that time, an admin concurred with my assessment and protected the page. So apart from edit-warring, you are now suggesting you want to WP:OWN the page. Nah... I think I'll pass. Kleuske (talk) 13:28, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
ArbCom 2021 Elections voter message
Thanks!
Thanks for the welcome wagon :) Do you have an interest in animation as well? 18bwhite4 (talk) 20:31, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- Not really. Good memories of Czech children TV, though. Like Pan Tau. Kleuske (talk) 20:34, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
ENCYCLOBOYS
Hi Kleuske, just a quick note to say I've undone the removal of a block notice from the talk page of ENCYCLOBOYS - not your edit, but there has been some back-and-forth that you were involved in and you were one of those who removed it. Please remember that users are more than welcome to remove messages sent to them (with few exceptions which do not cover this - it's not a declined unblock request, it's not a deletion tag, it's not a shared IP notice). This also means that (in my opinion) it's probably not the greatest idea to have used rollback to undo the removal either, as it doesn't give the opportunity for you to explain why. stwalkerster (talk) 19:08, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
About
Hi, you left a message on my talk page that I've removed Twitter link of her but in the guidelines there are social media links are don't allow that's why I've removed ... Can you explain me more about it ??? Truedboner (talk) 10:22, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Truedboner: In this case the subject of the statement was the tweet itself and (accompanied by another cite, showing relevance) falls under WP:ABOUTSELF/WP:TWITTER. This is, however, much the exception to the rule, so in general, you are right. It's confusing, i know, so thanks for asking. Kleuske (talk) 10:27, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
@Kleuske so self post Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, also allowed as citation ???
- Only if the criteria are met, such as not being self-serving, only about the person themselves and not giving WP:UNDUE weight to the post (or the person). The first criterion alone precludes most social media and the rest are hard to meet, too. But you can never use social media posts as sources for anything (or more importantly anyone) other than the author of that post. As I said, this case is pretty much the exception to the rule. Kleuske (talk) 11:21, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Truedboner is a sock of LTA User:Blogs19. They have been blocked by CU. The LTA editor generally engages in mass disruption of articles in rapidly and WP:GAMING through new accounts. 2402:3A80:6BD:9CEF:55EC:1848:84F2:1DE9 (talk) 19:16, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
If your apology was sincere, please explain
At Lynching you reverted me with the edit summary Don't lie in edit summaries. Thanks
. I think that was a clear violation of WP:NPA as well as WP:AGF. You self-reverted, giving Ooops
as your edit summary. That's neither an apology nor an explanation. So I asked for an explanation on that article's talk page in a discussion you had already started regarding a different issue. I'm sure that I didn't violate any rules, because a good discussion is virtually impossible while one part accuses the other of lying. That's why had to be clarified before the discussion could go on. Please remember that I wrote that before you apologized. The discussion then went on on my talk page, I made a comment that was clearly trying to end the discussion in a peaceful manner, and then you said, The "I'm not happy with your reaction" feeling is very much mutual.
I asked for an explanation, you haven't answered so far. I did nothing wrong, but you did. What is it you keep complaining about, wasting your time and mine ? Rsk6400 (talk) 19:51, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Rsk6400: If it's drama you want, take it to the drama-board. If not, please WP:DROPTHESTICK. Kleuske (talk) 19:57, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
Hobbits
The point of noting that dwarves, elves, goblins and trolls are also on the same list as hobbits is in response to Shippey's claim that it's a list of bodiless ghosts, which is untrue. There are many creatures on that list that are commonly held to be corporeal. Plus your claim that "The creatures mentioned are all fairly well known in various mythologies" is untrue, many of them are well-known but many are almost extremely obscure. Moreover, you claimed that the last bit, which could be taken as editorializing I admit, is what you wanted the source for. I omitted it from the second edit (which you noted), but you still reversed it even though I added a direct link to the factual statements made. So since everything written was sourced, it seems you're reversing it for relevance, but it is clearly relevance because it contextualizes the quote from Shippey. Shippey's quote cherry-picks a very small bit of the text and draws a conclusion from it. As it stands now, you're happy to have Shippey's false claim stand. The list of creatures is NOT a list of disembodied ghosts. It is a mix of corporeal and incorporeal creatures of all kinds. Ifyffe (talk) 20:10, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Ifyffe: I reverted the second time, since it wasn't an improvement. You mentioned a number of creatures in your edit, and all of them are fairly well known. The find is mentioned as the source of the word "Hobbit". Whether or not the critters in the other work are "solid flesh-and-blood creatures" or not is fully beside the point.
Shippey's quote cherry-picks a very small bit of the text and draws a conclusion from it.
Please read WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. We try to summarize what reliable sources say on a topic. Wikipedians do not insert their own conclusions.- Lastly. Please keep the discussion in one place. Things get very confusing of discussions are distributed over several pages. Use WP:PING. Kleuske (talk) 20:28, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
Sine and cosine
The paragraph is talking about binary, so I switched the qualifier "decimal" to "binary." However, it's not true that pi couldn't be written in digits of any base whatsoever. Also, I think it's inarguable that "amount" and putting it in a footnote are incorrect. Also, thank you for the welcome. Wuffuwwuf (talk) 14:33, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Wuffuwwuf: Unless you're willing to try base pi, there is no way to write it in any number of digits. If you do use base pi, you're not able to write 2 in any amount of digits. See irrational numbers for starters and read transcendental number next. Thank you. Kleuske (talk) 14:45, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome
Thank you for the welcome! I don't know how often I'll be able to be active, but I enjoy translation and hope I can find some pages on other Wikipedias that can contribute to the English Wikipedia. Copyedit & Translate (talk) 14:56, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Copyedit & Translate: If it's only a single article about a Basque
songpoem, I'm happy. So don't sweat it. Wikipedia is not an obligation. Kleuske (talk) 15:00, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
Jeton
Re [1]: looks like he did do it again. I've reverted manually. Now what? Thanks. Marnanel (talk) 13:35, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
