Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Wilt Chamberlain, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Specifically per MOS:OVERSECTION, we generally avoid short subsections, if possible. —Bagumba (talk) 07:07, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Bagumba, the reason i added the sub-section is because i noticed that there was a 'Politics' sub-section that was even shorter in the 'Personal life' section . So shouldn't that be removed as well? HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 07:40, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- At least in the case of the allegation, it naturally is a subtopic of the existing "Love life". As for politics, I'm assuming the content is notable, so I'm not sure of an elegant alternative it it's removed.—Bagumba (talk) 08:45, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
Strange edits
Hello, what is the purpose of your spam edits like this? --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 18:00, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- @PerpetuityGrat: I haven't edited consistently in so long and i just hate how my edit count isn't as high as it could be. I know its dumb lol, but i used to be really consistent on here when i started. HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 18:04, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- @HappyGoLucky7: it's really frowned upon to artificially raise your edit count like this, and I'd ask you kindly to focus on the quality of your edits rather than the quantity. Your edits are totally 100% welcome here, but not like this. Just focus articles that you are passionate about and add links or whatever. Even adding an appropriate comma counts as an edit and I would implore that you raise your edit count in a much more constructive way. Cheers. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 18:11, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- Here are the different types of service awards that editors can display. Even if you raise your edits dramatically, you won't be classified as a different editor at the current moment. Maybe this will help you. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 18:14, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- @PerpetuityGrat: Thank you for educating me, i will keep all this in mind moving forward. HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 20:50, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Hawk Newsome: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. I'd recommend WP:REDWARN for this. - AssumeGoodWraith (talk | contribs) 11:38, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- @PerpetuityGrat: Wow, thanks a bunch dude. I didn't even know stuff like this existed. Are there any more helpful tools like this or a page where i can find a list of them ? Thanks again. HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 09:16, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Not sure why I'm tagged here but I'll reply haha. That's pretty much the best place to find all the warnings. I use Wikipedia:Twinkle to warn vandals and such. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 03:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- @PerpetuityGrat: Oops sorry man, I haven't Memorized the code for reply yet so i just copied my reply to you from the earlier thread and forgot to change the name. Sorry for bothering you and thank you for answering anyway. HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 05:19, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:JamesBondLogo.png
Thanks for uploading File:JamesBondLogo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 19:09, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
Come on now...
Hey HappyGoLucky7... you know that you can make more than one edit, and then publish changes, right? Your recent edits to List of social nudity places in Europe is just one example where you really really should be making these types of edits all in one edit... rather than making 15 basic different edits. You're doing this all the time, come on now. You really don't need to inflate your edit count like this. It's also considered disruptive when you clog up the edit history of articles like that too. Please see WP:PGAME, as this appears to be what you're doing. Please just keep in mind what we've already discussed this on your talk page before. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 14:21, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
- Note, that a lot of your edits are constructive, and I hope you continue to improve WP! --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 14:34, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
- @PerpetuityGrat: No disrespect as you are the senior editor here, but how am i in violation of anything here?
A) There is no guideline or policy on wikipedia that states that your name appearing continuously on the edit summary page too many times is "disruptive editing".
B) I'm not in violation of WP:PGAME as i have not used my autoconfirmed or extended confirmed rights to make any controversial or unconstructive edits or vandalise any pages i have edited (and i don't intend to do that in the future either). All my "normal" edits after i became autoconfirmed and extended confirmed are constructive.
- Come on man, i stopped doing the user page editing stuff because i understood why that may bother you as i was just racking up edit counts without contributing anything to wikipedia, but in this case I AM contributing. You can watch over me and the moment i make an unconstructive or controversial edit or vandalise a page you can report me to WP:ANI and get me banned using WP:PGAME, but until then just let me be as I'm nothing more than a dude who loves editing a lot and loves seeing his edit count go up.

Hello, I'm Cassiopeia. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Petr Yan, 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. Cassiopeia talk 23:46, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello, I'm TylerBurden. I noticed that you recently removed content from Khamzat Chimaev without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. TylerBurden (talk) 09:50, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- @TylerBurden: Swedish Nationals is a national domestic tournament held in sweden. You cannot represent your country there as only people of Swedish nationality participate in it. It's not an international tournament like the olympics or something. I thought the explanation for the reason for the removal was pretty obvious that's why I didn't leave an edit summary with an explanation. I'll do better in the future. HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 11:19, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- The explanation isn't obvious when you don't include any explanation. Anyhow, I see you have removed it again but this time explaining why. Edit summaries should always be used anyway as they make it clear to other editors what it is you are doing. See WP:ES. --TylerBurden (talk) 11:22, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
A bit confused
Hi there sorry about the small edit war we had at Syndicate (Internet personality). I'll stop the edits but i'm pretty sure the diamond_year parameter listed in Template:Infobox YouTube personality said "| diamond_year = year in which the channel reached 10,000,000 subscribers". I was a bit confused on where you got "The year the YouTube channel was awarded a Diamond Creator Award by YouTube", because I did not find that quote in the template. I was wondering where you got that information. Again, sorry for the disruption. Thanks --Sparkl (talk) 5:39, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Sparkl: No worries, so basically go to 'TemplateDataEdit' section in Template:Infobox YouTube personality and you will see the description for every single section of the infobox and as you can see the description for 'Diamond Creator Award year' is "The year the YouTube channel was awarded a Diamond Creator Award by YouTube", which in Syndicate's case is 2021 HappyGoLucky7 (talk) 06:22, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yep, I see it now. Thanks for the explaination! --Sparkl (talk) 15:22, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Black Mirror episode rating
Hi, where did you get this rating figure from? — Bilorv (talk) 20:45, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- I've undone the change for now because I can't see that the source is in the list. But I'd like to have it re-added and also at "The Entire History of You" if reliability can be established. — Bilorv (talk) 16:13, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Sahaib. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to KSI (disambiguation) have been undone because they did not appear constructive.

Hi TheFightGame! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at The Marvels that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Especially key since phrasing was being discussed in Talk:The Marvels#Box Office Bomb. Sariel Xilo (talk) 18:10, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
