"Kureffi" is just the Hepburn romanization. The Anglicized name for Klefki in Japan is "Cleffy". And there is no Pokémon known as "Cleffy" in English.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:40, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please be careful when you revert. You removed my addition of the movie poster to the page when you restored your version.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 03:45, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Durham, North Carolina, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Elaine O'Neal. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

== Welcome! ==

Hi AG202! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

I've noticed that you've expressed an interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Unfortunately, due to a history of conflict and disruptive editing it has been designated a contentious topic and is subject to some strict rules.

The rule that affects you most as a new or IP editor is the prohibition on making any edit related to the Arab–Israel conflict unless you are logged into an account and that account has extended confirmed rights (automatically granted when an account is at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits).

This prohibition is broadly construed, so it includes edits such as adding the reaction of a public figure concerning the conflict to their article or noting the position of a company or organization as it relates to the conflict.

The exception to this rule is that you may request a specific change to an article on the talk page of that article or at this page. Please ensure that your requested edit complies with our neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies, and if the edit is about a living person our policies on biographies of living people as well.

Any edits you make contrary to these rules are likely to be reverted, and repeated violations can lead to you being blocked from editing.

Re your belated reply to my declining protection on Raven Saunders

[edit]

We're really not supposed to edit archived pages, so I will respond to this here on your talk page.

At AIV, we warn IPv6 IPs on /64s all the time. Yes, there's a chance they won't see it, but if we don't warn them they definitely will not see it. And as at that time it was the only IP doing that, protection would have been more than needed to deal with the issue while denying any IPs who want to edit constructively the chance to do so.

I see now that the article is getting hit by a variety of IPs that a rangeblock would be insufficient for, so I'll take care of that with protection. Daniel Case (talk) 17:59, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pennsylvania

[edit]

Just letting you know Bob Casey has conceded which negates the need for network calls. I will be listing McCormick as Senator-elect. If you still have objections send me a message on my talk page. Wollers14 (talk) 23:20, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is something that should have been brought up on the talk page as there was a consensus to not update the race until the networks had called it, hence the edit notice. I'm not going to revert the edit though as at this point, there's little reason to. Also, this should be brought up at one of the talk pages, bringing up here isn't the most appropriate. AG202 (talk) 00:02, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are probably right on that last part and I do apologize for that. Just don't know where the discussions are being held. I'm also surprised the talk of concession didn't come up because normally barring extremely rare circumstances like in 2000 or Valadao's 2018 race is a concession ever retracted and more rare that the leads change. Back in 2020 I only called a race if the AP did or if someone conceded but there wasn't that much argument in 2022 over that. You made a good point over the other networks calling it before which is why I primarily left it alone until someone gave in. But I think its safe to say that with McCormick ahead by thousands of votes after the first count was completed it would take like actual evidence of fraud (Not that I believe there is any kind of fraud btw) to change the lead as recounts very rarely change leaders and with McCormick ahead by that much it will not change.
