Edit on the Google Assistant article

Hi LocalNet! I noticed that you removed the Supported devices section on the Google Assistant article. For now, I have went ahead and reverted this as I believe that a talk page discussion should take place first. The section was initially created to create consistency with the Amazon Alexa article.

I get the point you brought up, and agree that it might be better expressed in text (like in the Cortana article, compared to a list). As for the list being overflowed due to the recent SDK announcement, the section states that only commercially-available products with a reliable secondary source should be included.

Cheers, Daylen (talk) 04:20, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi @Daylen: I was unaware you had posted on my talk page until now, and actually created a discussion on Google Assistant's talk page (which, for future reference, is where discussion of specific pages should be rather than on users' talk pages :) ) I want to keep the discussion in one place, so please meet me on Talk:Google Assistant#Supported devices :) Thanks! LocalNet (talk) 12:19, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

Sounds good! Not all users check their watchlist, so I initially start on their talk page. Happy to continue the discussion on the Google Assistant talk page! Daylen (talk) 15:53, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

@Daylen: That's true! A protip is to tag their name like {{u|username}} on the talk page of the article. Even if they don't have the page on their watchlist at all, that should give them a notification :) LocalNet (talk) 16:13, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

I should have checked your page first :), as I am used to new users and deal with many COI edit requests by PR personal who aren't sure who Wikipedia works. BTW, I responded on the Google Assistant talk page (and pinged you). Have a nice day, Daylen (talk) 16:24, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

December 2017

I have reverted a part of this edit to Samsung Galaxy S8— as you seemed to have made a duplicate; it already stated in the article that it was released on April 28th. If you're wondering what exactly I reverted, look here. SapphireArte (talk) 16:27, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

Hey there @SapphireArte: The reversion was actually not necessary. As per the "History" section, the Singapore release date was 29 April, but I had accidentally written 28. Now, however, it is bundled in the 28 April release dates, so I'm going to go ahead and add a 29 April header. Also, for future reference, please explain relevant reversions in the edit summary, as you made no mention of coming here to discuss the issue with me, leaving those looking through the history unaware of why you actually did it :) LocalNet (talk) 16:32, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello

Hi there, you missed me? It’s been more than two years then. I hope you chat on me soon. Thanks :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshguevarra2001 (talk • contribs) 13:23, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

@Joshguevarra2001: Hey there! I hope you're doing well! It's definitely been quite a long time. I've actually been absent from Wikipedia since December 2017, for reasons explained on my page. I never actually used Wikipedia for social purposes, only to work, but since I'm not doing that anymore, I don't actually log in unless a notification (like your message) sends me here. So that's why I haven't been here talking to you or anyone else. If you're back on wiki to continue working on some of the articles we worked on together, I wish you good luck! :) If you want to talk outside of Wikipedia, I have an anonymous public Twitter account you can contact me through if you also have Twitter (https://twitter.com/4j5124p). I wish you a great day! LocalNet (talk) 13:42, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
