Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Maurice Herlihy! If you are interested in continuing to edit, I suggest you create an account to gain additional privileges. Happy editing! - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

PS: I am intrigued by your edit summaries where you say "like I said infoboxes preprepared on google docs", but I cannot find where you make that statement on Wikipedia. It is fine to prepare things elsewhere, but please be aware that other Wikipedia editors might not know you are doing so. They can only go on what is published in a Wikipedia article, so might revert edits you might make if they are not aware of future edits you intend to make but haven't done so, yet, if you do not explain what you are doing in an edit summary or on a Talk page relevant to the article you are editing. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
PPS: I also notice that you have been editing the talk page for anonymous user account 2A02:C7D:F01A:7900:E4B3:5652:7941:FE5A. Your editing actions suggest that you might previously have edited under this anonymous IP address. One of the hazards of not having an account is that your IP address may be unstable and be changed by your Internet Service Provider at random, sometimes daily, so you appear to be a new user each editing session. This makes it difficult for people who leave you messages, because you appear to have a different identity each time you edit Wikipedia. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 09:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Just a note that adding empty infoboxes to articles just so you can remove a talk page tag that says an infobox is needed is not very constructive. The tag is there to indicate that work is needed on the article, and removing it without doing the work helps no-one. Also, when adding infoboxes to random articles, please review your changes to ensure, for example, that they don't have a massive red circle watermarked across them because the infobox has not been created properly. Lastly, there is a Starbox set of templates that is used almost universally on articles about stars. It is a set of several nested, and sometimes repeated, infoboxes, so the best way to start out with it can be to copy an existing star article, perhaps one from the same constellation.

Further to comments by Lithopsian, it would have been nice if you had filled out the infobox you added for Opuha Dam with some details already in that article, which is a stub. Infoboxes are meant to contain information. Uninformative infoboxes serve no useful purpose and detract from the quality of articles. Please remember we are trying to write an encyclopedia that is useful to readers. This is not a game where you score points for adding stuff. I would rather you add one useful and complete infobox that a million empty ones. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 22:54, 27 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Removal of needs-infobox attributes

edit

Further to my previous comments, I notice that numerous anonymous editors have been removing needs-infobox attributes from article talk pages since 2015. Before you remove the attribute from a talk page, please first ensure the article contains an appropriate infobox, otherwise people will revert your edits. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 10:52, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
