Page expectations:
- Do not Vandalize,It will get reverted and you will be reported,It is a policy here but UnsungHistory will enforce it better them some might
- Follow UnsungHistory's pronoun prefferences,while UnsungHistory is a male that does not mean you cannot reffer to UnsungHistory using "She/Her"or "They/Them",UnsungHistory does not believe it has any correlation with Gender,UnsungHistory does except He/Him,but not Ma'am,or Sir,or Mister,etc.
- Do not respond before UnsungHistory does,this is UnsungHistory's Talk Page so UnsungHistory expects people to be directing it at UnsungHistory if they write here
- Feel free to pinge UnsungHistory (although UnsungHistory does not insist on it) even though this is UnsungHistory's talkpage.
- Prefferably write in English or Russian,UnsungHistory does not know other languages,however bulgarian and scots will be easy to understand to some extent due to mutual intellegibility,but ultimately this is english wikipedia so english
Citations are not needed for everything said in the lead section of an article
[edit]Please see MOS:LEADCITE. Basically, if it is already cited in the body-text of the article, it does not necessarily need to be cited in the lead-section. FOARP (talk) 12:34, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Page move reverted
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to San Francisco 4th and King Street station, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. OrdinaryScarlett (talk) 00:12, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

UnsungHistory (Questions or Concerns?) (See how I messed up) 00:02, 9 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi UnsungHistory. It appears that you accidentally transcluded the petition page on your user page. The difference between transclusions and links is that a transclusion displays an entire page and its code looks like this: {{Wikipedia:2024 open letter to the Wikimedia Foundation}}, while a link's code looks like this: [[Wikipedia:2024 open letter to the Wikimedia Foundation]]. Curly brackets transclude pages and square brackets link to them. I've replaced the transclusion with a link, although you may want to remove the note you added to the userbox. Regards, Nythar (💬-🍀) 07:11, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

You currently have 310 edits to Wikipedia, of which 46 are to the Teahouse, while only 36 are to encyclopedia articles. You lack the necessary experience to be a Teahouse host. Your answers show it. They are often vague, misleading and misinformed. For example, at WP:TH#How can I hibernate my Wikipedia page for a few days?, you recommended a userpage template when the question was about a mainspace article. So, I suggest that you do not try to answer questions that you clearly do not understand correctly, and be careful to provide only indisputably accurate answers. If you are not highly confident that your answer is correct, then leave the question for a more experienced editor to answer. Your time would be better spent improving encyclopedia articles because that is the best way to learn how to advise people about how best to create and improve articles.

- @Cullen328,thanks for the feedback,for now I will stop helping out on Teahouse,and turn my focus to articles,I am collecting opinions on the matter:User:UnsungHistory/Should UnsungHistory be a Teahouse host poll 1 UnsungHistory (Questions or Concerns?)

- This is exactly the wrong response. WP:NOTASOCIALNETWORK. Please focus on articles or you will be blocked from these areas where you are being disruptive. Star Mississippi 00:04, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
- We do not run opinion polls about whether or not someone should be a Teahouse host. It is not a popularity pageant. There is only one test and that is helpful competence. Your record of misleading and incorrect answers at the Teahouse shows that you are not currently ready to be a Teahouse host. Work on improving encyclopedia articles instead.

Mountain View POV section tag
[edit]If you want to ensure some action on this you should probably describe your issues on the talk page. Without it, the tag can be removed after some time. --John (User:Jwy/talk) 15:55, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Wikiproject tags
[edit]Please stop removing Wikiproject tags. Their purpose is to be a helpful categorization and sorting system for editors, and removing them as you have been doning is disruptive. CMD (talk) 03:29, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- There is also no need to reply to old talkpage discussions, especially not ones from 2006. CMD (talk) 03:35, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Chipmunkdavis,I know what is the purpose of the Wikiproject tags, I have an explanation:Curacao,Sint Maarten,and Aruba are falsely categorized into the Netherlands Wikiproject - please read this source UnsungHistory (Questions?) (Did I mess up?) 18:13, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- They are not “falsely categorized”. Wikiprojects are not legal documents, they are collections of editors who determine their own scope. CMD (talk) 00:44, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- This is an important point generally: the rules and norms we have are meant to be useful, and one should always ask "is this helping others" before "is this following the rules" when engaging on project or talk pages. Remsense ‥ 论 00:46, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Tulurm, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Remsense ‥ 论 23:51, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Remsense,I have already been welcomed by User:Moxy,so no need for that,I also kind of took the idea of editing other peoples comments for purposes of fixing things from this editby User:Nythar UnsungHistory (Questions?) (Did I mess up?) 23:56, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Nythar UnsungHistory (Questions?) (Did I mess up?) 23:56, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- I fixed that comment because the space linked to a different, irrelevant edit. See: special:diff/ 1257663622 and special:diff/1257663622. These kinds of obvious fixes are acceptable, but no more than that. Also remember that it's pointless to ping someone on their user talk page because they get pinged when that page is edited anyway. Regards, Nythar (💬-🍀) 00:23, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- In general, please allow other editors to handle such corrections themselves. If Johnuniq wanted to make this change, they are very capable of doing so. Remsense ‥ 论 23:59, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- In the example above, it is a merely technical typo, whereas you assumed much more about Johnuniq's intent. Please err on the side of caution when it comes to editing others' comments, is the core point. Remsense ‥ 论 00:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Archiving
[edit]Hello, UnsungHistory, following up from a Teahouse post, did you find an archiving solution that works for you? If you still have confusions, feel free to ask. If you've got it figured out, you're of course welcome to just archive this topic. Take care, Rjjiii (talk) 03:34, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Rjjiii,I am not sure wether it is Archiving or not,but if you look on the top of this talk page there is a link,User talk:UnsungHistory/Archive,I simply copy paste them there UnsungHistory (Wrong Edit!) 03:38, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's an archiving method. I started off doing copy/paste archiving because it felt more straightforward than using a script or bot. Glad you found a solution, Rjjiii (talk) 03:46, 22 November 2024 (UTC)
