Sandbox deletion

Is there some reason why you keep nominating your sandbox for deletion? There's nothing in here. Why not just leave it? -- asilvering (talk) 18:55, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Asilvering: yes, you're right; in this case there's nothing in here, it's definitely better to leave it. JacktheBrown (talk) 19:01, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Trivelino

Hi, you did not provide a rationale for your PROD at Trivelino. Please do so. The date is also malformed, so I suggest copying {{subst:proposed deletion|concern=CONCERN}} and replacing "CONCERN" with your reason for nominating the page for deletion. ✗plicit 12:14, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Explicit: I hope I have solved. JacktheBrown (talk) 12:57, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Non-attributed translations

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from it:Bacaro to another page. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution must be given retroactively, for example:

NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit; see Repairing insufficient attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 22:55, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Southern question

I thought the opening should be cased same as the page title, Am I wrong ? - FlightTime (open channel) 22:21, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So you rather editwar than enlighten me to why. - FlightTime (open channel) 23:54, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FlightTime: "Southern" should be written in lowercase (see: Talk:Southern Italy#Lowercase or uppercase?). JacktheBrown (talk) 00:32, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

September 2024

Your recent editing history at Southern question shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. - FlightTime (open channel) 00:15, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FlightTime: where's the edit war? You asked me a question and restored your change without waiting (I answered you), don't be impatient. It's too easy to send a warning, less easy to be patient. I wish you a good night. JacktheBrown (talk) 00:34, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
