why have you reverted my RS from article 'Rum'

please come to the talk page and discuss why have you removed my RS from the article 'Rum'?, regards 175.137.72.188 (talk) 19:24, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello 175.137.72.188, because of your spelling. Regards --Serols (talk) 19:34, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Non Malicious edit

The last edit I made to the Male High School wikipedia page was not made with malicious intent. Male High School has had a BSU (Black Student Union) for awhile and soon will have a Young Republicans club. I decided to add BSU to the list and remove FCA as it was listed twice. My first edits I made simply see if the edits would actually stay. I planned to revert them but I will gladly accept that warning. Mckiddyb (talk) 16:47, 22 February 2019 (UTC)Mckiddyb

လက်ပံ Letpan

လက်ပံ is Myanmar name of Bombax ceiba. By adding လက်ပံ (Myanmar text) together with "Letpan or Latpan" (Myanglish word), anyone who search in Myanmar language would be easy to search, helpful and beneficial. Kyi Lwin Oo (talk) 12:17, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

why did you consider my edit to be unconstructive? 83.185.92.101 (talk) 12:40, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

Tricky Dick disambiguation

You reverted one of my recent contributions to Tricky Dick— because it did not appear constructive. Wikipedia:The deadline is now, and i thought [Tricky Dick]] might merit disambiguation rather than a redirect without so much as a hatnote. i was about to start chasing down "All pages with titles beginning with or containing Tricky Dick" to expand on what i started.

...What about redirect to Tricky Dicky (disambiguation) instead, or adding Tricky Dicky (disambiguation) as a hatnote on the Richard Nixon article? Could you do that for me? Anonymous users can't edit those protected pages.

Thanks for working to make Wikipedia a better encyclopedia.

Hello 71.121.143.220, please do not edit any pages with redirect. I deleted the warning. Regards --Serols (talk) 18:48, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
Should i revert my edits to Magmar and Galador then? ;-)
71.121.143.220 (talk) 19:09, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
Hello 71.121.143.220, of course not. I think you know what I meant. Would that be something for you?. Regards --Serols (talk) 16:58, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
i'm a little embarrassed to admit i don't really know what you meant. i'm having trouble finding the words to explain what i meant. i honestly thought disambiguation was a better choice than a redirect for Magmar, for Galador, and for Tricky Dick. You seem to agree with 2 out of 3, and i don't get the difference. Even in cases where editors agree there is clearly a primary topic, that topic still links to the disambiguation page and appears on it. For Nixon, maybe add this hatnote?
As for creating an account, the short version is that editing feels like Wikipedia:The deadline is now, but making an account feels like there is no deadline. i'll get around to it someday. 71.121.143.186 (talk) 06:53, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
Hello 71.121.143.186, Tricky Dick is the nickname of Nixon - so redirect to the main article. If an user now edit another person with this name or nickname in this site, then you would have to do it as you did. I hope I have explained it understandably. Anyway, my warning was overdone, sorry for that. Best regards --Serols (talk) 15:08, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Why did you revert?

Hi there, I recently participated in a feminism and art Wikipedia edit-a-thon to raise awareness of the lack of female editors on wikipedia and the incorrect or unfinished work on female artists. On Nancy Spero's page, I simply added content about her life. I'm not sure what was nonconstructive about my edits. Every edit I made I correctly cited from reliable sources and I did not add unnecessary information. What parts of my edits did you find not constructive? Why did you revert ALL of my edits instead of just the ones you found not constructive? Will I be able to add any information to Nancy Spero's page without you reverting my content?

Hello Bubbley nikki96, comment wrong place, comment no relevance for Wikipedia, wrong spelling headlines. Best regards --Serols (talk) 11:55, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

Simplified the edits you disliked/left them off

Hello Serols,

Latest: No external link in filmography; I just added character name to keep consistent with other entries. Added link in "Additional Links" to an audio conversation I conducted with Diane Gaidry. To keep you happy re extraneous details, I excluded reference to the context for each of the audio links (both of which were with me).

I appreciate you keeping your eye out for nefarious doings. Perhaps you never had the pleasure of knowing Diane. She was and is an amazing soul with a devoted fan base. The two long-form audio interviews are the only ones I know of that were done with her. I hope you will let the link to the second one stand.

Your AIV report

Hi, Serols. I quite agree that revert back to vandalism is unacceptable, and share your frustration. It doesn't seem right that 3 reverts can lead to a block for editwarring, while it takes 4 pieces of vandalism and warnings to warrant one, but that's how the community sees it. Nevertheless, it's an IP with no previous blocks; the best I could have done would have been a short block. I appreciate the work you're doing to counter vandalism, and I'm serious about pinging me directly. --RexxS (talk) 18:45, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Small galleries at History of art

Hello Serols! Today I’ve added galleries at the page named History of Art. They have the purposes to make readers understand art styles. The edits I make on this page as constructive as possible. The deletion of them is very nonsense. Please let me add small galleries of four pictures at every section of this page. This isn’t a type of vandalism.

Hello 213.233.110.5, sorry my mistake - see here. Regards --Serols (talk) 15:46, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for reverting. Now everything is right.

why you reverted my edits

Although I’m new but you must tell why you removed my edit of criticism of Hinduism so that I may reform and next time do not do mistakes. Thank you. Ashoka the idiot (talk) 10:50, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Hello Ashoka the idiot, you know what redirect is? Regards Serols

Sir, I’m asking about reversion of my edits whose none of the reasons you mentioned. Ashoka the idiot (talk) 10:58, 19 May 2019 (UTC)


Hello Ashoka the idiot, Criticism of Hinduism is only a redirect site to the main article Anti-Hindu sentiment and you deleted the redirect. Regards Serols

Sir, I wanted to remake page on topic criticism of Hinduism. We have criticism of Christianity. So what is harm in it? Ashoka the idiot (talk) 11:34, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

@Ashoka the idiot: You don't need to "remake [a] page on [the] topic," because an article related to it already exists: Anti-Hindu sentiment; you can contribute to that article instead. Even if you are "remaking," the content you replaced the redirect page with is not sufficient and appears to be original research. I suggest first you try The Wikipedia Adventure and read about reliable sources, verifiability, and finally writing your first article. You can reach out to our Teahouse or the Help Desk if you need any help related to editing on Wikipedia. Happy editing. —RainFall 11:56, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Regarding my so-called “Vandalism”

It’s actually for my English homework. We’re reading George Orwell’s 1984 right now and we were given a task to “change” the past as “He who controls the future controls the past...” and so on. I always make sure to change it back after so there’s no need to go all angry. San13flower (talk) 07:41, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Bishop Thomas Tobin

Hello Serols -

Regarding the entry for Bishop Thomas Tobin:

I am sorry to have seemingly had a tit-for-tat exchange. This was not my intent.

Can you point me to an appropriate resource for style guides/citations about proper listing news worthy information about the view points of public figures?

Bishop Tobin recently made news worthy comments, objectively controversial statements which were published on social media and spread widely thereafter. There is already a section of his page regarding his views. I do not wish to vandalize, only inform and memorialize. Guidance would be appreciated.

Here are a few citations, including the original twitter posting: [1] [2] [3]

Serols, you wrote that you reverted my edit of Maildir "because it did not appear constructive".
