- Hello, SpinnerLaserzthe2nd,
- I hope you are well. Please do not remove deletion tags from pages that you created. Rest assured, if a category is no longer empty, either I or another editor will untag it so that it is not deleted, as long as it occurs during the 7 day period when categories sit in Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion. And if a category is deleted simply for being empty and you find you need it later, it can easily be restored. Take care, Liz Read! Talk! 15:30, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

Pokémon capitalisation
editI just had a look at Bulbapedia based on your edit summary to the userbox, and wow, I never knew there had been so much discussion on Pokémon species capitalisation! That's so interesting. Although it makes more sense for me for them to lowercase, proper noun style does seem to be the convention, and that is how they're done in Wikipedia areticles too, so I'll stick to that while on Wikipedia. Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it :) -- NotCharizard 🗨 23:44, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Lena Forsén.png
editThanks for uploading File:Lena Forsén.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 03:20, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

You can dispute the deletion but you may not remove the deletion tag. Whpq (talk) 03:30, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

Inserting Nastaliq script on Iran-related articles
editHi Spinner. I noticed you have recently embarked on inserting the Nastaliq font on many Iran-related articles. However, Nastaliq is a calligraphic script, and is "not" used as an everyday writing script for Persian in Iran. I would therefore like to ask you to stop doing this, as its not an improvement to said articles. Thank you! - LouisAragon (talk) 19:46, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- It seems you have inserted it on more articles than I thought. Could you revert these yourself manually? Saves the community a lot of time. Thanks! - LouisAragon (talk) 19:49, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- If Nastaliq is a calligraphic script, what do people in Iran use instead? I wasn’t aware that Nastaliq was a calligraphic script and wasn’t used in everyday writing anyone. I wonder why? I think the Persian Wikipedia should have a Nastaliq option. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 19:54, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- @SpinnerLaserzthe2nd: The writing system is just called “Persian” (Farsi). Obviously when you add Persian-language text using “{ { lang | fa } }”, it automatically uses the standard script and you don’t need to do anything extra, the same way you wouldn’t do that for any other language. Like LouisAragon said, Nastaliq is used for artistic purposes. We use it on book covers, poetry books, and so on. It’s not “the normal” way of writing.
—Rye-96 (talk) 22:48, 24 August 2022 (UTC)- Thank you for the advice. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 22:53, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

An American Tail: Fievel Goes West
editPlease don't add unsourced countries to film infoboxes. Most of the time, this is already sourced. If it's not, you can help by adding a source and citing what it says. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:44, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
- But it is co-produced by a British studio, I had checked the article. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 05:45, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
- That's irrelevant. Wikipedia is based on what reliable sources say, not our personal criteria for what makes a film British. So, for Wikipedia to label a film as British, there needs to be a citation to a reliable source that does the same thing. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:56, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
Queen's Personal Flags
editThe Queen's Personal Flags are exactly as the name suggests - personal to herself. You cannot assume that they will be adopted unchanged by her successor and your moving all of the articles has been hugely messy because other editors had already changed them to be in the past tense. XAM2175 (T) 00:52, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- I thought all names are charged to reflect Charles himself even the flags are no longer used. Is there is a process for that? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 01:07, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
- No. There is a division between things that refer to the current monarch, and things that refer to a specific monarch. Where things refer to the current monarch, articles on those things should be updated where they refer to current events or circumstances. Where things refer to a specific monarch, as with the Queen's personal flags, there is no automatic change unless the new monarch decides to adopt those things themselves - and when, if ever, that does happen the way the article is updated should be decided on a case-by-case basis. Please remember that there is no deadline in editing Wikipedia; it is better that an article be outdated for a while rather than being updated incorrectly. XAM2175 (T) 13:22, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
Badge image upload
editHello, I noticed your edit to the Flag of the People's Police of the People's Republic of China.svg, thanks for your contribution, the picture File:Police Badge,P.R.China.svg does not fully restore the color and pattern configuration of the police badge. For example, the configuration of the national emblem pattern, the asymmetry of the two pine branches at the bottom and the bump at the top of the shield are all different from the police badge. The type-07 PLA cap badge File:PLA's cap insignia (2007 Edition).svg should not have a blue background, it should be hollow, and the gold color value is not correct, it should be brighter. Could you help fix them?

Categorisation
edit- Subcategories of existing categories should not be added to articles. For example, Category:Anti-Americanism is a subcategory of Category:Workers' Party of Korea. Every member of the WPK does not need to have Category:Anti-Americanism because it is inherent if the article has Category:Workers' Party of Korea.
- WP:CATV and WP:CATPOV: Categories should also be verified by the sources in the article body. This is especially important for labels such as "anti-American". Just because you are certain of a label does not mean it should be added. If the label is widely used, you should have no problem with finding reliable sources that use that label for the subject.

Your draft article, Draft:List of municipal flags of Central Bohemian Region
editHello, SpinnerLaserzthe2nd. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "List of municipal flags of Central Bohemian Region".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Reverting without discussion
editHello! I invite you to Talk:2023 Israel–Hamas war#Germany as you have removed content under dispute at a talk page discussion, after previously mis-translating a source which was confirmed by an Arabic-speaking Wiki editor to confirm German drone were going to Israel, not Ukraine (as you claimed in your reversion). I also encourage you to self-revert as this is your 2nd revert of the content and in your 2nd revert, you did not provide adequate reasoning to violate the Arbitration Remedies on the article. So please, self-revert this specific edit, as you have not participated in the discussion and seem to be unaware of the inaccurate translation you conducted when you reverted the content the first time earlier today.

I reverted the report you filed at SPI because you didn't create it properly. You may refile, but please either follow the instructions at SPI or use Twinkle; do not do it free-form as you did.

Kingdom of the Netherlands
editDear SpinnerLaserzthe2nd,
You reverted a change I made and changed a link to just refer to the country of the Netherlands. However, the constituent countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands do not have a separate foreign/defence policy. The Dutch Armed Forces and foreign ministry always represent the entire kingdom and not just the constituent country of the Netherlands. I think it's okay to colloquially refer to just "the Netherlands" in text, but the link should be correct imo.

editPlease see WP:BRD. You've been bold and added this article to Category:Fictional German people three times, and you've been reverted each time. Not once have you attempted an discussion. Instead, you keep edit warrning, a behavior that can easily get you blocked.

- So? We're not talking about that category. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 17:17, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- Ok, I think I see what you mean by this. The category Category:Fictional American people of German descent was in the article and has now been deleted and you're trying to replace it with Category:Fictional German people. I think that's great that you're trying to do that with articles it was deleted from, however it shouldn't been a category in this article in the first place as it wasn't sourced. The crux of the problem is, after you added it, you were reverted, and then you added it back. You were reverted a second time and still added it back. You didn't follow BRD. Once you're reverted, if you disagree with the revert, go to the talk page. Don't edit war to add it back. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 17:26, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol
editHello SpinnerLaserzthe2nd!
- The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
- We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
- If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

O'Reilly
editHi! I reverted your edit on Samuel O'Reilly because I haven't seen anything in sources that would show he went by or was known by anything other than the American version of his name. Your edit didn't have an edit summary, so I'm not sure why you added the alternate name – please always include an edit summary (WP:FIES). I see you made similar changes to a few other articles. Are you basing these changes on sources that show these people sometimes used an Irish version of their name? Dreamyshade (talk) 15:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

- Is there is the reason why you removed them despite the fact that sources states so? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 21:11, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Stock image websites are not reliable sources; the first part of my reasoning (as also explained at WT:FOOTY) is that these simply aren't significant parts of the tournament.

Move of Soma Station
editDear colleague, please note that renaming of the article shall not be done by moving text, as cutting/pasting removes the history (and creates authorship issues). Instead, please use one of the procedures in WP:MOVE. Here are more details:
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Soma Station] a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Sōma Station. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Olympic userboxes
editHey man,
Just wanted to say – great job at picking up where I left off making userboxes for individual Olympic Games, using the same format I first used almost fifteen years ago. It occurred to me I hadn’t made any for awhile so I made userboxes for the 2024, 2026, and 2028 Games, and then went to put them in the Userbox Gallery and lo and behold I was greeted with yours haha. I hope you don’t mind, I still put my versions of those userboxes there, as alternates – but yours look better than mine ever did anyway lmao.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:The Phryges.svg
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

A tag has been placed on File:The Phryges.svg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Files for discussion/2024 July 19#File:Paris 2024 mascots.png. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

- I see you uploaded this image once, it got deleted, and so you just thought you would upload it again? Please stop doing this, it's not a valid non free file as per the discussion. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:58, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- That are you talking about, the SVG file is used in only one page. Plus it had a different artwork. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 15:59, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Same image that was deleted from all 3 pages previously and fails WP:NFCC#1 as there are multiple free images in the article. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:19, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
