July 2022

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Tom Cole does not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.

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. Thanks! Throast (talk | contribs) 09:02, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

October 2022

Hello, I'm Aoi. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Aloha ʻĀina Party, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Aoi (青い) (talk) 23:48, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Second Boer War concentration camps. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You have added categories which make assumptions which in the article would require very WP:RS citations BoonDock (talk) 17:17, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

'Native' names

Hello ip editor. I've noticed several [1][2][3] where you reference 'native' names. The names that you listed are in their specific languages, there is no generic native language and wording things this way can lead to misconceptions. Indigenous girl (talk) 23:17, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for pointing this out. I only used a generic template which I found on the page for U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK), in which her Yup'ik name was placed beneath her English name. I discovered other instances where Native people in the U.S. from many different nations had their names in their info-boxes in this fashion (Stand Waite, John Ross, Crazy Horse, Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, Peter Pitchlynn, Allen Wright, Ely S. Parker, Chief Joseph, Chief Seattle, Irataba, Geronimo, etc.)

As a Choctaw I understand there is no generic native language for all our peoples and nations, and I fought to explain that during my undergraduate and graduate years to several overbearing white liberal professors. I simply thought that adding the names to the info-boxes of Russell Means and the others seemed to just be another form of indigenizing the space, as was done with historic Native leaders in America. Thank you for the information, and good luck in your future endeavors. 174.65.93.112 (talk) 00:45, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from 2006 student protests in Chile into Colour revolution. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 16:20, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Apologies for a misunderstanding

Hello, I noticed you have made attempts to edit categories on the Flag of Minnesota article to add "|M". I previously reverted your edits because I incorrectly believed you were trying to direct the reader to the "M" list of the category, but I now that you were trying to make sure the Flag of Minnesota article is displayed under "M" for "Minnesota" rather than the default "F" for "Flag". I have reinstated your edit by adding "|Minnesota". Thank you for your edits and my apologies for my confused reverts!  Vanilla  Wizard 💙 01:25, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Improper category

Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Caloosahatchee River, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. "Caloosa" is not Muskogean; "-hatchee" is almost certainly from Muscogee or Hitchiti/Mikasuki. Donald Albury 12:55, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

To add to the above, any claim that "Pensacola" is of Choctaw origin is very tenuous. As stated in Pensacola people#Panzacola, the first known use of "Panzacola" was as the name of a village in Apalachee Province. The Pensacola people apparantly shared a language with the Amacano, Chatot, Chine, and Pacara people. That language was Muskogean, and therefore related to the Choctaw and Apalachee languages, but that does not mean that "Pensacola" was Choctaw. "Apalachicola" comes from Apalachicola (tribal town), which was Hitchiti-speaking, not Choctaw. Just because a name could be derived from Choctaw does not mean that it actually was. If you are aware of any reliable sources that say that "Caloosahatchee", "Pensacola", or "Apalachicola" are derived from Choctaw, please present them, but be aware there are reliable sources for derivation of those names from other languages, and all sources must be given due weight. - Donald Albury 13:43, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
