This user's talk page is monitored by talk page watchers. Some of them even talk back. Their input is welcome, and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated. |
It is 7:57 PM where this user lives. |
Note: Please check the above template for what time it is in my location before sending a message as I may be asleep.
Note 2: When it is April fool's day, DO NOT TROUT ME as an April Fool's joke. In the past I had a trout button which I removed due to persistent abuse of it. If you trout me on April Fool's Day I will revert you and ask that you do not do it again.
Note 3: Any comments here regarding a vandal or from a blocked user that I was WP:AGF will be archived once i ensure there is nothing left to say per WP:DENY.
Note 4: If I remove your comment and you add it back, I will revert you and warn you for doing so. If you do it again after that then I will report you for harassment. This crap has gone on for way too long and I've become less and less tolerant of it. Removing comments from my own talk page is perfectly allowable per WP:OWNTALK.
Note 5: If you are blocked for any valid reason and you attempt to communicate with me on Discord, I will immediately block you on that platform as I will not communicate with any user who has been blocked for any valid reason unless it is to attempt to help with an unblock.
Checking Up
Hey, @Blaze Wolf. It's me, @Faithful15. I just wanted to check up on you and see how you're doing. Read your user page. Ouch. Losing your acc has got to hurt. Faith15 15:06, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- His alternate/older account? And
Losing your acc has got to hurt.
–you threw me off a second there because I thought Blaze's account wasscrewed up by trolls and compromisedlost! ;) Tails Wx 15:22, 13 April 2023 (UTC)- It threw me off too – but I thought it was referring to the Account Creator flag! The WordsmithTalk to me 15:24, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
- It shouldn't be because I've never even had that flag. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:35, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- I saw what that sockpuppet guy @HoveringTurtle2 said. Don't listen to him. It's completely different. You forgot your acc sign-in. It could happen to anybody. Plus, he should be one to talk. What a jerk. Faith15 18:09, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

- It's literally just Ba dum tss. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:38, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- BTW, you should read Frogapocalypse Now on Vela.com (or something like that? IDK what the actual site's dot name is). "Sean Theloon" has a vampire cow story in the making, but the cover artist he knows is still coming up with a cover picture. Faith15 19:34, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Question from Rustybubbles66 (15:42, 15 April 2023)
Hey there I'm here to save words that I find interesting to enable myself to be concise by limiting words I use due to a better understanding and pertinence of words 😀 great username BTW. There is always a word to better explain or help describe what's in your thoughts. I'm here to try to express my thoughts so there is less confusion by the recipients --Rustybubbles66 (talk) 15:42, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Rustybubbles66: Hello Rusty! I'm not exactly sure what you're asking me here. Would you mind elaborating and being a bit clearer? ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 14:38, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
help
hey blazewolf, reffering to the yuri gagarin/vostok 1 food edit, im new to wikipedia, and just want to earn access to semi protected docs, in order to edit civil war docs, which i find most interesting. i have a citation from the UKs national space museum! is this good enough? p.s whats ur fursona? -capstar — Preceding unsigned comment added by Montbur (talk • contribs) 18:56, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Montbur: Hello Montbur! With the citation you say you have, are you referring to a citation for the information you added to the Vostok 1 article? Also, my fursona is my username, Blaze Wolf. I have an image of him that I had someone make for me, however due to copyright laws (you don't have to formally apply for copyright as you technically automatically gain copyright for any original work) I'm unable to display it on here since the artist that drew it owns the copyright and I'm unable to contact them to ask them to formally release it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:05, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- I think that’s what they are referring to, and even if it isn’t, it probably would most likely be a citation for the article! And I don’t have a fursona, I already am one! ;) Tails Wx 19:09, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- yeah thats right, its from the national space museum in the UK, would that be official enough for my addition on space food, thanks a lot, P.S who is tails, do either of u have fursuits? thanks Montbur (talk) 20:12, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- Well, here you go: Tails (Sonic the Hedgehog). I’m a two-tailed furry! Tails Wx 20:26, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- oh yeah I know tails lol!
- so can i restoremy contribution and cite it then? Montbur (talk) 20:40, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- Well, you can re-add it with the source! Tails Wx 20:59, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Montbur: I'm not entirely sure. I'm unfamiliar with what is a good citation for these kinds of articles. And I don't have a fursuit, that's not really something I'm interested in. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:29, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) @Montbur, I'd say that that source carries some weight, as it is from an official employee of a national space centre. I've formatted your contribution and moved it to a more natural place in the article. Feel free to check what I've done. Schminnte (talk • contribs) 21:21, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar | |
Thank you so much for all your help reverting vandalism and performing other helpful tasks here. I, and the community, appreciate it. I saw you recently reverted an edit with an edit summary that attacked me. Thanks! It brings me great joy to have trolls/vandals upset because they aren’t getting any recognition per WP:DENY. Keep up your amazing work, and remember that it doesn’t go unnoticed. Happy editing! - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 23:55, 17 April 2023 (UTC) |

Signature
Unless I am mis-counting, your signature is almost twice as long (~450 chars) as it should be (max 250). Please consider trimming. Thanks! Primefac (talk) 09:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Primefac: It shouldn't be because otherwise I wouldn't be able to fit it into the custom signature preference. Are you counting the timestamp? Cause I have 19 characters left before I hit 250. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:00, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- I just threw it into a character counter and it came out as 236 characters total so you might be miscounting. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:10, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- I wonder if it's a reply tools glitch - Special:Diff/1150521163 is clearly well over what you've just signed above. Primefac (talk) 16:48, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Primefac: Ah. In that case I simply just used 3 tildes instead of 4 which just adds my signature without the timestamp so the reply tool just duplicated my signature while adding a timestamp. Normally I go back and fix it but I just decided to be lazy and leave it this time. Maybe the reply tool should be changed so that if it detects only 3 tildes it should only add the timestamp rather than add the whole signature again with a timestamp. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 16:51, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hah! Was reading the diff so I didn't even notice you had double-signed. That would definitely explain it. Ta. Primefac (talk) 17:32, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Draft edited regarding completely unsourced
Hi sir thanks for pointing me, as I am new Understand that I have to learn the system prevailing here.Please review again to see if I did it correctly.Thanks☺️ Radhey8 (talk) 08:14, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Radhey8, it looks pretty good to me, I’ve accepted it. Blaze, if you disagree, you are welcome to revert it. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 10:15, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
article declined
@Blaze Wolf the article i submited was declined can i get back what i wrote pls Ashe7896 (talk) 13:19, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) your draft is here Draft:The weather in the Wolrd but there is nothing in it worth salvaging. As previously advised the content “is already in various Wikipedia articles” Theroadislong (talk) 13:41, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
Request on 14:33:42, 20 April 2023 for assistance on AfC submission by Edgar.bailey111
Hello, patent pending information is usually provided by companies themselves. The reference to an article on Business Mondays is a reliable source of information, unless a reviewer plans to sue the company for providing false information on some grounds, which he seems to hint he may be aware of.
It is odd that this company's information has been immediately "dismissed" as "unreliable" and is, frankly, disturbing, especially this being a businesswoman.
I object entirely to the second request to resubmit the article, because it is well-referenced.
Yours sincerely, Edgar
Edgar.bailey111 (talk) 14:33, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- Edgar.bailey111 Blaze Wolf has indicated on their user page that they are away, so I will respond in their place. They may have more to add later. The draft is not well referenced. The one source provided just documents the existence of the software. "Patent pending information" does not contribute to notability; thousands of patents are pending.
- Wikipedia is not a place to merely document the existence of someone and tell what they do. Any article about Zifa Sadriyeva must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about her, showing how she meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. "Significant coverage" goes beyond merely telling what she does and goes into detail about her significance or influence as the source sees it, not as herself, her company, or her associates see it. To pass the draft process, we usually look for at least three sources with significant coverage to be summarized in the draft.
- If you have a connection to her or her company, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 14:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Patents pending confer zero notability and your single source does not mention the topic Zifa Sadriyeva? Theroadislong (talk) 14:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- OP blocked and TPA removed for attacks and legal threats. 331dot (talk) 16:27, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Irena Soprano
Hello! Sorry for disturbing you. You recently reviewed my draft for the article on Irena Soprano. I corrected the article, added new sources and reduced the number of references to other facts (I only left links to different designer's dresses, it seems to me this will be interesting to readers). Unfortunately, the source with the Irena Soprano' biography isn't confirmed by Wikipedia. If you have a time, please see the corrected version. Thank you!--Jane230 (talk) 06:12, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
