Shouting etc edit

I would cautiously like to remind you that capital letters are considered shouting and are 'virtually never appropriate', and civility is one of Wikipedia's five pillars. Batternut (talk) 21:51, 5 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Your comments on my talk page here and most recently here are gratuitous and offensive. Take some advice from Yahoo: Is it true that when you shout you lose the argument? Batternut (talk) 09:09, 6 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for July 7 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited History of Cambodia, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Administration and Ayutthaya. 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.

‎Requesting guidance edit

Greeetings

It seems you have been working on culture related some articles too. I am requesting your kind guidance for change of name of one article. When I started working on a new article recently, presently named Poles in mythology actual article name was some thing different, actually due to some misunderstandings some one changed name of the article to Poles in mythology. Matter of the fact is I wanted to cover cultural aspects and festive celebrations as an umbrella article and wanted to have historical mythological, worships wherever concerned as a small part of the main article.

Poles in mythology is altogether a different subject when I am doing research and writing cultural aspects of festive celebrations are also coming up simultaneously and I am coming to a conclusion that for covering cultural aspects of festive celebrations of 'pole' we need to have a separate umbrella article altogether so we will not have more confusions and misunderstandings. Either we need to change present article name or split and create a new cultural aspect related article.

Please let me know your openion and if you are positive to my suggessions what should be the new articles name ? In fact you can join in discussion at Talk:Poles_in_mythology#Change_of_article_name

Looking forward to your kind guidance

Thanks and warm regards

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Khmer Empire edit

I have reverted your edits to Khmer Empire because you removed citations and sourced content without explanation, and you also removed page numbers from numerous cites. Please use edit summaries to explain changes you are making to pages and do not remove cite detail without a valid reason. Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 18:45, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Do you know, what you are talking about?Wikirictor (talk) 18:49, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
When you remove those templates saying, for instance, "rp:97-98", those are the page numbers from the citations. Please do not remove those, or edit the cite to include them. Also, a glance at your contributions show you never use edit summaries. This is very inconsiderate of other editors. Please explain changes you are making to articles. Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 18:52, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Do you know, what you are talking about? These were dead links - leading nowhere. These text segments are mostly copy/paste content from a number of sources, such as the library of congress etc. You better check things first before you revert edits. Wikirictor (talk) 18:56, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

First, please keep the discussion in one place. Second, if these are dead links, that is why it is important to use edit summaries to explain what you are doing, so other editors know. We cannot read your mind. Third, even if the links are dead, the citations and page numbers are still relevant; please do not remove them. Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 18:59, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
So that means you are satisfied with the quality of this pathetic article and oppose to enhance it? It is also very interesting to learn how i open pages of links that do not exist.19:09, 31 December 2015 (UTC)~~
I never said you may not enhance the article. I asked you not to remove existing citations. Please familiarize yourself with wiki policy on reliable sources. Just because a cite is not linked on-line does not mean it should be removed. Some readers may wish to look up these sources at a library and will need the page numbers.

I should have thanked you here earlier! But see[1] which broke something. Doug Weller talk 15:24, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
I simplified the French section...hope this was ok?

Wikirictor (talk) 15:35, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

That's fine, although I'm not clear why you removed the links from the red linked articles. I've deleted a lot just now. This is almost good to go! Doug Weller talk 16:06, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

red means link does not exist - i always remove red links, if there is nothing related where it might refer to. I think most people leave them as reminder, that there is work to do. Wikirictor (talk) 16:24, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that's the way I use them, reminders, statements that something is notable enough for an article. Doug Weller talk 16:46, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for all your help with the navbox and Pair-non-Pair (which I visited 2 weeks ago). I'm not sure if you were thinking of actually adding the navbox, but if you are we need to coordinate so we don't waste time, eg one start at the top, the other at the bottom.
