December 2023

Hello, I'm CodeTalker. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Braintree, Essex seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 17:07, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Hey @CodeTalker, it's completely fine with me and nice meeting you on Wikipedia. Actually I am a new Wikipedia editor and I am only learning copyediting on Wikipedia. It's something new to me, but I want to contribute to Wikipedia (can't stop myself). Therefore, I need your feedback on my works. If there is something which I am doing and which isn't right, please do correct me and I will be grateful for your feedback.

Wish you a very happy new year 2024!! Yashrajkarthike (talk) 05:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

Perks and benefits?

Nope. We don't do that. Any well-meaning suggestions that Wikipedia do anything remotely like that tends to be met with considerable hostility amid horrified cries of, "We are not social media!" and warnings of doing Facebook/Twitter/Candy Crush kinds of things here. Roles of responsibility, especially the higher levels like adminship, are only granted after a rather grim and unpleasant interrogation and examination of one's entire history here. And once you get responsibilities, there are no benefits attached (not even the fictitious "lousy t-shirt"). Any experienced admin or other super-active participant who wants to attend a conference must file the same skeptic-designed application to plead for funding for such an experience.

I get the impression that you are using an AI bot to make changes to Wikipedia articles. The mistakes it is making are seem more like a bot than a human being. Please stop using a bot. If you do not want to edit yourself, then do not edit at all.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:25, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Please stop changing date formats from rest-of-world format to American-format.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:28, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Please do not change the name of the film in in the article on The Year of the Discovery.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:30, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I will take care of these mistakes in future. Pardon me for now! Yashrajkarthike (talk) 07:31, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Please stop changing technical terms and proper names as you did at AIM-9 Sidewinder.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:34, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Okay, please make the corrections from your end. Thanks for pointing out my mistakes. I am a new editor, that's why I made these mistakes. I will take care in future. Yashrajkarthike (talk) 07:36, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! -- Toddy1 (talk) 07:43, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

Question about the Tikar people

Was wondering if you could add this to the genetic category of the Tikar people. Here’s a source stating that they share majority of their ancestry with the Mursi of Ethiopia

“The relationship of the Tikari and Herero with other populations is complex. They could be modeled as having 23% ancestry related to an archaic population that diverged prior to the divergence of all modern human populations (possibly reflecting introgression from an archaic population into modern populations) and 77% ancestry from a population related to the Nilo-Saharan-speaking Mursi. A similar pattern was observed in the ADMIXTURE analyses at K = 7 to 11 but with much lower inferred Nilo-Saharan-related ancestries in the Tikari and Herero (Figure S2). The TreeMix analyses showed evidence of gene flow between the Mursi and the ancestors of the Tikari and Herero starting at 5 migration events (Figure S3F). The results indicating archaic introgression in a population ancestral to the Bantu-speaking lineage are consistent with previous studies based on ancient African samples which suggested that the West African Niger-Congo-speaking populations carry lineages ancestral to all modern human lineages.”

Date formats

Please don't use MDY (month date year) formats like you did in Chandralekha. That format is only for American articles. Kailash29792 (talk) 08:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Okay, Thanks for reminding and correcting me. Yashrajkarthike (talk) 08:41, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
