Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Program music may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it.

Why not create a user page?

Hi friend,

Your user page has a name like this: User:Example. (This link is to yours.) Its normal use is to give basic information, if you wish, about yourself or your Wikimedia-related activities. You don't have to say anything about yourself. You may also wish to create a user page on Meta that will display on all Wikimedia projects where you have not created a local user page.

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Tim Krul, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 16:42, 26 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi Mattythewhite, I didn't cite a source since it's in a info box. Isn't it weird to have citations there? Anyway, here's a source that he played in five games for Brighton and Hove in 17-18: https://www.football-lineups.com/footballer/4053_Tim_Krul/. Also, the 17-18 season Wikipedia page for Brighton and Hove has him down for five appearances. I don't think you can cite one Wikipedia article in another, but that's more evidence that I'm right, yes?

Also, I'm not great with User Talk pages, so sorry if this is the wrong format. Update: Just realized my mistake: those tables are for Domestic league appearances only, not Cups. My bad.

Use of Permalinks for linking to Founders.archives.gov

Sportzak,

I just changed the link to founders.archives.gov for the edit you made linking to Ben Franklin's first Silence Dogood letter from April of 1722.

And so I changed the search results link which was this:

https://founders.archives.gov/?q=Project%3A%22Franklin%20Papers%22&s=1511311111&r=8%7C

to the permalink which is this:

https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Franklin/01-01-02-0008

The issue is that although the search results links initially work as more documents are added to founders.archives.gov over time the search result link can then point to a different document.

In this case the eighth result from the Franklin Papers collection could over time be something different than Ben Franklin's first Silence Dogood letter.

So I've just been checking every few weeks for additional search result links, and then changing them to the permalinks.

Please preview your edits

Please preview your edits, you've now wasted my time twice. Your edit says "in addition to her 1Grammy Awards" – not 13 or 19 or actually any valid number. Aza24 (talk) 16:32, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. Must have been rushing when making that change yesterday. Sportzak (talk) 21:03, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Bill Belichick, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

Mr. Throwback moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Mr. Throwback. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:53, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

@Hey man im josh thanks Josh really appreciate it. I agree it's a bit of a work in progress. Just was surprised it hadn't been created yet so figured I'd start on something. I'll work on it more than submit for review. Appreciate you explaining things. Sportzak (talk) 19:55, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
