Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Peter the Great Gulf, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Seal and Beluga. 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.

Bare URL references

Hello! I see that another editor has already reached out to you about this, but I noticed that you've added quite a few bare URLs when you've edited Southern right whale. (Thanks for that, by the way. Templating them was very fun .) If you're to busy to put "full bibliographic citations" in (doesn't matter which on Wikipedia: Citation Style 1, MLA, Vancouver...they just ask for consistency"), tools like User:ProveIt GT and WP:REFILL might help speed things up.

Please stop marking every edit as minor

You were told before at User_talk:Gamera1123#Minor_edits that minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, rearrangement of text without modification of content, and undoing vandalism. Addition of new content is never a minor edit. 137.205.238.142 (talk) 09:10, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

I understood, thank you. Daniel0816 (talk) 09:13, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

If you understand, then why did you just go and do it again[1]? Pinging User:Drmies, User:Ohnoitsjamie and User:John. 137.205.238.142 (talk) 09:30, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Final warning for misuse of minor edit tag

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you misuse the "minor edit" checkbox on Wikipedia. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 13:47, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

• OK, let me play devil's advocate--that edit was relatively minor. Drmies (talk) 16:23, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
• The relevant guidance is at Help:Minor edit and I strongly recommend you to read it and start abiding by its recommendations. To persistently mark non-minor edits as minor is either serially careless or downright deceptive. Are you the same user as User:Gamera1123? If you've been previously warned about this, I would endorse User:Ohnoitsjamie's warning above. I have certainly blocked before to get this point across. I would hate to have to do it again. --John (talk) 21:03, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi

It is great to see you contributing to mammal articles, a somewhat neglected area here. While I appreciate your work, I would recommend to you, if you are not aware of them already, the cite templates. This improves the presentation of the citation. And take care what you use as sources; sources like studies from peer-reviewed journals are often preferred. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 12:21, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi, thanks very much! I'm glad if I could contribute to construct better encyclopedia. To be honest, I didn't know about cite templates. Thank you very much for telling me! Daniel0816 (talk) 12:46, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Sure. Just be careful with sources and try to learn how you can improve articles to GA, or one day FA, status. We all evolve by the day, don't we? :) Do read WP:GA if you wish to improve an article as a whole. Cheers! (I have indented this conversation for clarity.)

Right whales in Ulbansky Bay

I've summarized nearly 100 whaling logbooks and journals that have gone to the Sea of Okhotsk in the 19th century. Many of them visited Ulbansky Bay. Not a single one reported seeing a right whale there. Please stop adding that nonsense. ST1849 (talk) 02:09, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

What the hell is your problem? I already told you. There is no goddamn evidence right whales ever occurred in Ulbansky Bay. None. Don't edit any article I've edited again. ST1849 (talk) 23:58, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

Your source cites Tomilin (1962). He was simply supporting a mistaken belief held by Soviet scientists of the day, that bowheads didn't occur in the Sea of Okhotsk. Bowhead sightings there were considered misidentified right whales. Read page iii of Jim Scarff's introduction to Klumov's 1962 report. As you can see from the link, this proved to be false. Please don't revert my edit again. ST1849 (talk) 00:14, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Hello Daniel0816. The image you've added, Image:Buffalo charges Elk near old faithful - panoramio.jpg, to at least three articles—Bison, Elk, and Rocky Mountain Arsenal—is very nice.

English and other problems

You should learn English before editing the English wikipedia. You constantly use the plural of words that are almost always used singularly (e.g. presence, occurrence, distribution), you don't seem to know the difference between in, on, and off, and there are times when I don't even know what you're saying (too many examples to even cite). Oh, and learn how to properly use definite articles (e.g. the Sea of Japan). You also need to learn how to summarize stuff. You keep adding sighting after sighting of a species (e.g. gray and North Pacific right whale) when all you need to do is say when (not the date, but the season) and where (the country or region, not the exact locality) the species occurs. And stop citing youtube and facebook. ST1849 (talk) 19:01, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Wow. I was going to quote an old adage about catching more flies with honey than with vinegar and how it probably applies to helping Wikipedians become better editors. (I assume that's the goal, anyway, since NOTHERE concerns aren't likely to be resolved by talk-page scoldings.) And then I looked into this a little further.

Daniel0816, when I interacted with you a few weeks ago, my impression was that you were both willing and able to correct your mistakes. After spot-checking some of your contributions and looking over your talk page, I'm not so sure. I see innumerable indications of a poor facility with basic grammar and syntax, as well as a lack of understanding about what constitutes encyclopedic content and proper sourcing. Some of your comments here are disturbing, too, because they show a lack of regard for Wikipedia procedure. For instance, you questioned a user's right to warn you (as if warnings are the sole province of admins), and you evidently have been simply ignoring the messages—twenty of them—that DPL bot has been leaving you for more than a year (hint: they're telling you there's a recurring problem with a certain kind of edit you keep making). I'd like to believe you have the makings of a good editor, but with over 2000 edits under your belt you're still making the same types of errors. This won't end well unless something changes, and soon. After all, if people have to keep cleaning up the same kinds of mistakes over and over, their patience is bound to run out.

So here's a suggestion. If you want to keep editing the English Wikipedia, stop making the kinds of edits you've been making. Don't add any content to an article unless (1) it definitely meets the policy on verifiability and its sources meet the guideline on reliable sources, (2) it's noteworthy, not trivial (you can determine that, in part, by the number of reliable sources that have written about a topic and whether coverage has persisted over time), and (3) you are absolutely sure that the content you're adding is written in standard English. How you fulfill the third part of my suggestion is up to you, but if you use your sandbox to draft changes, you could ask someone to look at them before you make them go live. I'd be willing (time allowing—no guarantees). Good luck. —the fellow whale lover (who almost never writes about them) Rivertorch^FIRE_WATER 21:13, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

DYK for Hachijō-jima

On 27 April 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Hachijō-jima, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that when Ulysses S. Grant visited the island of Hachijō-jima in 1877, he was ceremonially adopted by the village chief and given a name meaning "courageous general" in the local dialect? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Hachijō-jima. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Hachijō-jima), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
