== Red links in [[Deaths in 2016]] ==

Hi. Today, you twice edited the article [[Deaths in 2016]], on both occasions specifically removing redlinks. I need to point out that the convention on that page is for every entry to be wikilinked, with no exceptions at all. If it then results in a redlink due to the subject having no article, then so be it. If the subject has a bluelink which leads to a disambig page, then that would also be addressed, by piping the link, as would redirecting the subject to an associated article with its own notabilit,y to create a bluelink. Merely delinking a subject's name is not acceptable. I'm sure you hadn't realised this, so please be assured I am writing in the spirit of good order and friendliness. Best wishes.

== Hi ! ==

Hi Chesnaught,

Just passing. Awesome to see younger people on Wikipedia and you are apparently from the UK? Wonder what I would have done at 16 years of age with the goldmine in terms of information.

Btw, I saw your post at the TeaHouse. Where does one get information about templates and such? I would like to customize my user page a bit.

Also, I speak fluent French. If you have any questions just ask :)

P.S: How do alerts work and do you know what a ping (shows up as @Username) is?

--[[User:JamesPoulson|JamesPoulson]] ([[User talk:JamesPoulson|talk]]) 23:53, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

:{{ping|JamesPoulson}} Hello James, thank you for the kind message. I am indeed from the UK. If you want to customise your user page, a good way to do that is by using userboxes; the link to the gallery is [[Wikipedia:Userboxes/Gallery]]. Alerts work using the ping template, simply write "ping" between brackets {} and after ping put |USERNAME. I have an account on French Wikipedia myself, I am still learning a little bit! Once again, thanks. [[User:Chesnaught555|Chesnaught555]] ([[User talk:Chesnaught555#top|talk]]) 14:16, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

:{{ping|JamesPoulson}} Addendum: Just seen your user page and it appears you are already familiar with these! Whoops. For discussion templates, go to [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Talk namespace]] and for general code go to the [[Wikipedia:Cheatsheet]]. Incredibly useful page which shows you basic main space Wikipedia coding, such as citation tags. As you've seen my Teahouse post, I'm certain you're familiar with blank templates. Hope the links help. [[User:Chesnaught555|Chesnaught555]] ([[User talk:Chesnaught555#top|talk]]) 19:00, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

::{{ping|Chesnaught555}} Thanks for getting back to me. I will check those out. For French, one of the things I had the most difficulty with was the conjugation of verbs. Here is an invaluable link which gives the spelling of verbs according to tense :) . http://leconjugueur.lefigaro.fr/frlistedeverbe.php --[[User:JamesPoulson|JamesPoulson]] ([[User talk:JamesPoulson|talk]]) 12:26, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

== My .02 cents ==

I think this could be an attempt to sabotage the GA review on the article.  Suddenly, out of nowhere, this editor appears and starts edit warring at the article -- an editor with only 70-some edits over the course of several years since his account was created.  Now an editor is suddenly suggesting I should be blocked and should stay away from the BtK article WHILE I am in the midst of the GA review?  Looks fishy to me.  -- <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #0099FF, -4px -4px 15px #99FF00;">[[User:Winkelvi|WV]]</span> ● <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;">[[User_talk:Winkelvi|✉]] [[Special:Contributions/Winkelvi|✓]]</span>  22:24, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

== Rollback granted ==

[[Image:Wikipedia Rollbacker.svg|right|130px]]
Hi Chesnaught555.  After reviewing your request for "{{mono|rollbacker}}", I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A{{urlencode:{{PAGENAME}}}} enabled]</span> rollback on your account.  Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
*Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing [[WP:TW|Twinkle]].
*Rollback should be used to revert ''clear'' cases of [[WP:VAND|''vandalism'']] ''only'', and not [[WP:AGF|good faith edits]].
*Rollback should never be used to [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]].
*If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
*Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it.  Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see [[Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback]] (even though you're not an admin).  I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my [[User talk:MusikAnimal|talk page]] if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback.  Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism.

== A suggestion ==

Hi Ches, if you believe someone is engaging in harassment or trolling, the best thing is to ignore that person and to report it to an admin if it reaches a certain point. By interacting with, or talking about, that person, there is a risk that you actually keep it going, and then it becomes harder for outsiders to see who has caused it. So I would say the best way to help at this point is to disengage.

== significant figures ==

the edit was due to a misunderstanding and i think the line should be a bit more descriptive. for instance "trailing zeros, those to the right of the last non-zero digit, which are significant, are marked with a decimal point" or something to that effect. sorry, i was reading it wrong and thought they meant 1.00100<--those kinda trailing zeros. its ok tho, its explained again in the next section

First of all, while editing tests are not necessarily considered vandalism, they are not allowed on articles and most other pages (see [[Wikipedia:Vandalism#Editing tests by experimenting users]]). However, you ''are'' allowed to make test edits in [[Wikipedia:Sandbox]], which exists for the purpose of testing code. Also, you should have been able to see a [[Help:Show preview|preview]] of your edits' effects on the article without having to hit the "Save" button, even when using the mobile site. Assuming that you were using the mobile version of Wikipedia, you should have been able to cancel the edit by using the "back" arrow at the top of the page.
:In response to [[Special:Diff/706008769|this comment]] you made earlier: Chesnaught555 is allowed to remove comments from their own talk page, except for certain notices (see [[Wikipedia:User pages#Removal of comments, notices, and warnings]]). Your comments can still be seen in the page history.

You could see pretty cool creatures where you live, too. Maybe not a lot of reptiles or marsupials, since you live in the UK, which is a series of islands, however, if you frequently go to the woods where you live, you could find several creatures you would never find out here in the eastern United States. Like badgers (as long as there not locally extinct). However, if you like reptiles, you should definitely visit out in the eastern part of North America(not nessisarily the west, since there's much fewer). Or even the south! It's so diverse out here in the deciduous forests of the easternUnited States. The reason why is because, unlike Europe, who's mountain ranges go from side to side, preventing  diversity from coming south as the climate  grew cooler in the early Pleistocene, North America's goes up and down. So if you're looking for diversity, try traveling (in a rural area) around.  <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Qwertsar|Qwertsar]] ([[User talk:Qwertsar|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Qwertsar|contribs]]) 20:03, 22 February 2016 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Jilllyjo ==

I've tried to get to the bottom of why an editor indef'd for being an abusive sockpuppeter has ANY rights with regards to "banning" people from their talkpage, but so far Bbb has just repeated the fact ''that'' they're allowed to do that. It seems odd that such deference would be given to an editor who has acted so poorly.  [[User:Hallward's Ghost|Hallward's Ghost <sup><small>('''''Kevin''''')</small></sup>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:Hallward's Ghost|My talkpage]])</small></sup> 17:17, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
:{{U|Hallward's Ghost}}: It is highly concerning that, in spite of Jilly's block, that her awful excuse on a par with [[WP:BROTHER]] has been seemingly listened to, although when questions ''are'' raised about her "father", she seems to prevaricate and say things along the lines of "I don't want to ask him". Seems highly evasive, and yet she is being acknowledged. I have to question the sanity of any administrator who unblocks her after what happened at BTK. I notice she completely removed my question on her talk page, and therefore did not state why she didn't wish to answer questions about her father, ''quod erat demonstrandum''. Surely, even if she was going to be unblocked, consensus would have to be reached first, and that means receiving the opinions of other editors (in particular those of us involved at the BTK article and its GA review)? It's just ridiculous. --[[User:Chesnaught555|'''Ches''']] [[User talk:Chesnaught555|'''(talk)''']] 17:48, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

:{{U|Hallward's Ghost|HG}}, I think Bbb23 is just trying to keep the drama down, to be honest.  And, when you stop and think about it, the less attention given with actual communication to Jj, the more the purpose of [[WP:DENY]] comes into play.  Let him/her rant and lie and invent stories (it's really no different than what either account did when active, anyway) -- nothing they say is going to change the fact of the CU results.  The thing that ''I'' see happening with all these new tales being told and insistence that they will be back to create and work on articles goes to what happened fairly recently with a LTA sockmaster, ColonelHenry.  Look up JackTheVicar and the CH accounts to see what was involved with that.  JTV also, when first blocked for socking and claiming he wasn't CH and was going to send pleas to ArbCom, was talking about what work he was going to do when he returned after vindication.  I'm certain WS was watching that whole process (because I was involved - WS has a weird obsession with my editing habits and history) and is imitating the same to some degree.  That's my take on it, anyway.  It's really, really best to just ignore the shenanigans and forget about his/her (never was sure if WS was a male or female).  And to do so after you all read this and possibly comment again.  The less we talk about them publicly, the less weird, dysfunctional satisfaction people like that get from seeing others concerning themselves with them.  Like Bbb23 said, just let it go.

== That last edit ==

I'd like to apologize for that last edit - I definitely didn't mean to blank the page; it was a total accident. I was trying to change "December 28" to "December 29" and for some reason the entire page got highlighted, and I hit "save page" accidentally. I regularly make edits to weather related articles and I'm definitely not here to vandalize.

Hope we can put this aside with no issues.

== Regarding socks ==

I've learned that it is best to allow suspected sock edits to stand until after the SPI has concluded.  As well, placing tags on suspected sock accounts - especially in the case of chronic sock puppets - should be left for after the SPI has concluded.  We are not obligated to notify someone of suspected sock puppetry or an SPI in progress.  If we let them know they are suspected, the odds are they will stop using that account immediately and create another.  Further, the more they use that account, the more technical evidence is provided for those performing the Checkuser.  I know you are just trying to help, but your actions were premature and could have compromised things a bit.

==Newest Member of WER==
Editor Ches. Thank you so much for joining the Editor Retention project and the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week|Editor of the Week program]]. As time goes on I'll share a little of the history of the project and the program and we can discuss the importance of "pats on the back". Briefly,  Administrator {{ping|Dennis Brown}} started WER in January of 2013,  {{ping|Go Phightins!}} and I joined soon after and the Editor of the Week award followed soon after that. The project has hit a bit of a lull right now but the Editor of the Week Award is still a major tool in retaining editors. Sometime on Sunday next I'll give out the next award. Who it is will show up on the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention|Project page]] and the Editor of the Week page. Then, one of the simplest ways of working toward retaining an editor happens; various editors stop by and offer congratulations. Some are editors that know the awardee, but some are strangers. I hope you will take a minute to join in on the "Patting of the Back" ceremony. Anyway, Welcome Aboard.

Hi Ches

Hope all is well.

The changes are being made by myself, Clare's friend and manager, as the page was full of some partially innacurate information and items that aren't as relevent to the new material . Everything that is being ammended is coming directly from the souce Clare, provides a true summary of event and is factually correct.

:Hi Dan, all is well over here thanks :-) It looks to me like you have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]] - in other words, as you know Clare Maguire personally, some of the information you have included may not be accessible to everyone else (in other words, people who do not know her) without a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] to back it up.

== Author-blanked pages ==

When an author blanks a page of which he/she has been the only significant contributor (such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shafiq_Ur_Rehman&diff=prev&oldid=713539561 this edit] to [[Shafiq Ur Rehman]]), especially when the page being blanked has been nominated for speedy deletion, that is generally considered a [[WP:AGF|good faith]] effort on the author's part to delete the page. Rather than revert such edits, it is common practice to mark the page with {{tl|db-author}} so that it will be soon deleted.

If you are a bit confused by the last, notice that ICIJ have their report on their project page (projects.icij), as well as the ''exact same'' –100% identical– on their Panama papers subpage (panamapapers.icij).

== Sacramento Kings ==

First of all, I apologize for getting testy in the past on this subject.  Sometimes you forget that there is a real person on the other side.

As to myself, I have done extensive research on the origin of sports teams.  (Doesn't mean I can't be wrong sometimes).  However, there is a tendency for teams and even for leagues to alter their "official" history.  For example, baseball does not recognize the National Association of 1871-1875 as a "major" league.  They have all types of justifications for this, but it really boils down to the fact that the National League (formed in 1876) wants to be thought of as the first major league.  Another good example are the Los Angeles Lakers who don't mind claiming the Minneapolis Lakers history (where they won five championships) but totally ignore the fact that the Minneapolis Lakers were a transferred franchise formerly known as the Detroit Gems who had the worst record in league history.  Until recently, the NBA often has ignored the history of teams before they entered the NBA or the BAA.  As noted in the rest of the Kings wikipedia article, they go back to 1923 where they started off as a company team.  The article totally ignores their 1946 NBL championship.  The Association for Professional Basketball Research has done a pretty good job tracing the origin of the current NBA teams.  http://www.apbr.org/  In case your curious, there are independent research organizations for football and baseball as well.  They tend to be more reliable than the professional leagues and teams themselves.  As they say, "History is written by the victors."  <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/68.203.153.72|68.203.153.72]] ([[User talk:68.203.153.72|talk]]) 17:00, 9 April 2016 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== [[WP:ANI#Neve-selbert asking others for proxy-edits to go around 1RR rule|WP:ANI]] ==

With all due respect, but I urge you to reconsider your support of the motion brought forth by {{noping|OpenFuture}}. I am a constructive contributor that accidentally got caught up in a web. Per [[WP:STATUSQUO]], I asked two other editors if they could review the situation and potentially restore the status quo pending discussion. I did ''not'' attempt to game the system. I have no personal crusade and all I want to do is help the project. As a fellow editor with a mental issue ([[WP:OCD]]), I would hope that you could gain some further understanding. This situation is really personally worrying for me. Thank-you.--[[User:Neve-selbert|Neve]][[Special:Contributions/Neve-selbert|–]][[User talk:Neve-selbert|selbert]] 22:10, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

== ''Editor of the Week''&thinsp;: nominations needed! ==

The ''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week|Editor of the Week]]'' initiative has been recognizing editors since 2013 for their hard work and dedication. Editing Wikipedia can be disheartening and tedious at times; the weekly ''Editor of the Week'' award lets its recipients know that their positive behaviour and collaborative spirit is appreciated. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week/Recipient response|response from the honorees]] has been enthusiastic and thankful.

The list of nominees is running short, and so new nominations are needed for consideration. Have you come across someone in your editing circle who deserves a pat on the back for improving article prose regularly, making it easier to understand? Or perhaps someone has stepped in to mediate a contentious dispute, and did an excellent job. Do you know someone who hasn't received many accolades and is deserving of greater renown? Is there an editor who does lots of little tasks well, such as cleaning up citations?

Please help us thank editors who display sustained patterns of excellence, working tirelessly in the background out of the spotlight, by [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Editor of the Week/Nominations|submitting your nomination for ''Editor of the Week'']] today!

== Can we talk about Huggle? ==

I’m reaching out to you because our logs tell us you’re a highly active Huggle user (top 20, actually). The Wikimedia [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Collaboration/Team Collaboration Team] is researching a project that we hope will be useful to people who use Huggle and others engaged in edit-review and anti-vandalism. Using artificial intelligence programming (in [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Objective_Revision_Evaluation_Service ORES]) and other means, we believe we can create feeds of Recent Changes that are better tailored to the type of work you do, helping you to be more effective and efficient. (The technology will have other benefits as well, which we can talk about.)

We're in the early stages of planning this and want to speak with people like yourself to better understand your work, goals and issues. If you’re interested in helping, I’d like to set up a time to meet by video conference, so that you can explain and demonstrate (via screensharing) some of your workflows, and we can ask and answer any questions.

To participate, please email the following information to me,  jmatazzoni{{@}}wikimedia.org, or send it to designresearch{{@}}wikimedia.org: 

* Username  
* city/time zone
* Best time to talk to you?

== Fairfax County schools ==

Hi! I found out about [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fairfax_County_Public_Schools&diff=707766816&oldid=707765937 this edit that was reverted back in March]. I think the anon [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fairfax_County_Public_Schools&diff=prev&oldid=707765937 made test edits here] and that was rightfully reverted by the bot. However the bit about [http://www.fcps.edu/LutherJacksonMS/history.html the high school changing to a middle school after integration turned out to be true!]

It's too bad [[User_talk:Dianalex123]] made the first unconstructive edit, but I'll work in the bit about the high school changing into a middle school.

== The article on Ron Gostick ==

I removed the quotation from David Lethbridge because it is a purely personal and highly subjective observation from a little-known person involved in a political organization (the Communist Party of Canada) that is extremely marginal, as confirmed by its minimal vote totals election after election since at least the 1950s. The fact that the observation is very likely true is not the point. The comment sticks out like a sore thumb in what is otherwise a neutral and factual account, strongly suggesting it was inserted by someone other than the original author of the article. If anything, it could do a great disservice to the truth by creating the false impression that it is only or mainly a very marginal group at one end of the political spectrum that believes Gostick was an extremist. I would therefore suggest you reconsider your decision to restore the text I deleted and leave the facts in the article to speak for themselves.  <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/190.21.23.206|190.21.23.206]] ([[User talk:190.21.23.206|talk]]) 16:43, 20 August 2016 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Perhaps you could also reply to the main issue regarding the quotation from David Lethbridge. Note also that many Wikipedia pages use the word "rightist". However, I'm quite happy to avoid it.

Hi. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. We appreciate your enthusiasm but while we encourage the participation of younger users, a review of your contribs at [https://tools.wmflabs.org/supercount/index.php?project=en.wikipedia.org&user=Patient%20Zero Top 10 Most Edited Pages by Namespace] may suggest that you might be participating in meta areas that are not strictly appropriate for users with little experience, particularly when they are not directly involved with the issues under discussion. However,  Wikipedia needs serious help with combating vandalism (see [[WP:CVU]]) and with the huge backlog at New Page Patrol (but you ''must'' perfectly understand [[WP:NPP]]). If you would like to help in these areas, don't hesitate to contact me if you need any advice. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 02:50, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

::::::::i'm impressed with  your  perception  of these issues. I don't  think  there's any   need to restrict yourself from  any  where until  you  are 18 -  It  won't  happen agai, but I  believe our  youngest  admin  was 12 ! Perhaps stay  off ANI and ARBCOM  unless you  are directly  involved, but  your  help everywhere else would be greatly  appreciated, ''especially''  at  [[WP:NPP]] if you have thoroughly read the tutorial and regularly what's going  on  at [[WT:NPP]].

::::::::::Wow {{u|Kudpung}}, 12 is an impressive age for an administrator. I wasn't even editing at 12, and there's no way I would've been mature enough back then! Yes, I'll stay off ANI and ArbCom now, and I'll read up on NPP. Oh, and I didn't know you could speak Welsh! Diolch am eich cymorth!

== Thank you ==

Thank you for your kind comments on the Jimbo Wales edit summary. I have took your [[WP:NOTHERE]] constructive criticism comments, and am now following [[WP:YESTHERE]]. [[User:Hawkeye75|Hawkeye75]] ([[User talk:Hawkeye75|talk]]) 07:28, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
:{{u|Hawkeye75}}, no problem! That should not be red linked :-). Glad to hear you're taking the community's advice, I do think you are becoming a great editor. I highly recommend you install [[WP:TWINKLE]] if you want to do a bit of counter-vandalism work; it makes it significantly easier. It's good for speedy deletion tagging too. After that, I reckon you could ask for a few minor user rights.

Thank you for improving articles in July. - I was away, for hiking in the Swiss Alps and a funeral, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Gerda_Arendt&oldid=1101114332 more on my talk]. [[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 14:00, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

:: Thank you. Without enjoyment, I'd kept it to myself, and even the family and friends gathering was good. As her husband put it, she said farewell slowly but surely. --[[User:Gerda Arendt|Gerda Arendt]] ([[User talk:Gerda Arendt|talk]]) 06:05, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
