[edit]

I was surprised to see you revert my edits here. I took the action as part of wider work to remove content added by a now-blocked sockpupet who made a wide variety and amount of LLM-aided content additions. Unfortunately, with this article I hit a WP:TNT situation due to the intervening edits. I've already messaged the editor who made those. Please revert yourself per WP:LLM / WP:LLMPRV -- thanks! Ed [talk] [OMT] 18:43, 16 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

The fact that a user has used LLM material does not justify reverting dozens of edits to a page just because edits from 6 months ago used LLM. You edits removed multiple valid intervening edits and removed valid information from the Infobox (placing this page and numerous others into error/maintenance categories). If you believe that there is LLM content on this specific page, you should remove that content, not just lazily revert dozens of edits because 3 of them may have been performed with LLM. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 18:46, 16 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
It actually can justify it in some situations. See WP:TNT, which I linked to for a reason. Let me know if you'd like to help with combing through these hundreds of edits dating back to at least March. Ed [talk] [OMT] 18:49, 16 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Sure, but an important cornerstone of WP:TNT is WP:BATHWATER. I think in this instance you've done roughly equal parts baby throwing and bath-emptying, I think calling it lazy is a bit harsh but support the revert. Elirockenbeck1 (talk) 19:31, 25 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
The sockpuppet 4x'd the article, and Martin made revisions and additions on top of that. It is not easy to disentangle, which is why WP:TNT exists in the first place. I'll assume Zackmann08 has assumed responsibility for the LLM content, including checking its accuracy. Ed [talk] [OMT] 03:45, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
You can easily remove the supposed LLM content without reverting good and valid edits. Really not that hard. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:47, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Great to hear. As the reverter and per LLMPRVOBJ, I'd invite you to take that task on; speaking not in any sort of annoyed tone, but if you can guess by my recent contribs, I genuinely don't have available time to do it. Ed [talk] [OMT] 03:51, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
We all have tasks we are busy with. As YOU are the one who has identified the LLM content, you are welcome to remove it. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 04:05, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
To be clear, it was the lack of recent contributions due to real-life needs.
Per what you've said, I've re-removed the content until the LLM content can be verified or removed. Thanks. Ed [talk] [OMT] 04:46, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Pls check with AI detectors before deleting someone's hard work GerryBoy69 (talk) 10:56, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Moved to right place and added a section heading. Graham87 (talk) 11:15, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Nonsense. You were reverted for violating the BLP policy at Marc Márquez. Whyiseverythingalreadyused (t · c · he/him) 11:17, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Whyiseverythingalreadyused: That message refers to this revert at Mick Doohan, which GerryBoy69 mistakenly posted about on my talk page. Graham87 (talk) 11:19, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Damn. I first saw them commit BLP violations at Marc Márquez, but... I see now. Whyiseverythingalreadyused (t · c · he/him) 11:22, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
@GerryBoy69: your edit contained multiple WP:LLMSIGNS as well as triggering multiple filters. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 23:57, 21 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

A barnstar for you!

Seeing your name in my watchlist every week or so makes me slightly happy. It's always nice to be reminded that there's someone behind the scenes maintaining the templates used in thousands of articles. FaviFake (talk) 15:10, 23 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Well thank you!! Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 15:27, 23 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi Zackmann08, you might be interested in adding yourself to {{@BAG}} so you can receive pings from users/other BAG members for matters which require BAG attention. Tenshi! (Talk page) 15:44, 25 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! done. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 15:46, 25 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Ryan Chaplain

[edit]

Why did you remobe the chaplain for Archbishop Ryan? ~2026-46122-16 (talk) 14:45, 26 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

What page are you talking about? What did I supposedly remobe [sic]. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 02:32, 27 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
(talk page stalker) I believe they are talking about this 'remobal'. They added the unrecognized |campus minister= in one of their four edits. Template:Infobox school does have a |campus_director= parameter, but I wouldn't know if that's an equivalent term. Probably?
TA editor, Wikipedia is overrun with unrecognized and unwanted parameters right now, and Zackmann's leading an appreciated charge on getting many templates cleaned up, so using recognized parameters is helpful (plus if the parameter is not recognized, it won't display on the article's infobox, fyi). Feel free to look at any infobox's template page to see the full list of recognized parameters for that template and the helpful details for using them.

Castleton Square

[edit]

Which part of the anchor store situation is OR? This is a GA-class article and the issue of possible OR was never brought up during the review. Ten Pound Hammer (they/them) • (What did I screw up now?) 04:27, 29 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Ok for starters, if you had bothered to read the comment I left on your talk page, or bothered to WP:PREVIEW your edits, you would see that |anchors= is not a valid parameter, so not sure why you reverted that edit. Second, claiming that these stores are the achors of the mall is unsourced and you just now added it. NOT when it was reviewed for a GA so you cannot claim that it was never brought up during the review. That obviously makes no sense. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 04:30, 29 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Prior versions of the article listed off the current anchors, a piece which seems to have been removed by another editor at some point. Also, I mess the anchor paramater up a lot. Ten Pound Hammer (they/them) • (What did I screw up now?) 17:02, 29 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Lost parameters in infobox motorsport season

[edit]

Hi, I can see you're going ahead with the TfD resolution and converting all {{Motorsport season}} into {{Infobox motorsport season}} already. However, in doing so, some useful features of the former (which I mentioned in the TfD), namely the footings Parent series, Sister series and Support series, are being lost. See for example the before and after in DTM. What's your plan? MSport1005 (talk) 23:55, 29 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Will re-examine and find a better solution. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 02:16, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Ha!

As penance, I'll fix this :) Jessicapierce (talk) 04:31, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

HA! I hope you know I was 10000% kidding. If I had a nickel for every time I've done something like that... Keep up your great work! Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 04:32, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
