Thank you, Whispyhistory, and for your creation of the article! I was so glad to find the article underway while I was working on another potentially related article, and the research was very interesting. Cheers, Beccaynr (talk) 16:25, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Holidays

Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, people's rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. ―Buster7 
Peace DoveThank you, Buster7, and the happiest of holidays to you and yours, with best wishes for the new year!

Hello, could you please explain the rationale behind reverting my revised version of Bhim Army despite providing accurate resources on minority groups in India?

I would like to clarify the reasons why using the term "Dalit" may not be universally accepted.

—⟩ Minority groups in India

—⟩ Dalit could be replaced with Bahujan, Schedule Caste, or Backward Caste.

I have provided my response here. If you find it helpful, and it has already received approval, kindly implement the changes accordingly. Alternatively, please respond, and I will take the necessary editing actions myself. Thank you. LampVimmW (talk) 06:00, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
no original research. Thank you for providing sources, and I will plan on posting to the article talk page as soon as practicable. Beccaynr (talk) 06:12, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply

Ok. I am engaging in a discussion on the article's Talk Page, making necessary edits in an acceptable manner and utilizing additional resources while adhering to the principles of a
original research

AE

Hi Beccaynr. Can you please tell me, in very broad terms, what you would like to do with the additional 150 words? Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 21:21, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for following up, Firefangledfeathers - broadly, I was thinking I could mention that while the AE discussion is happening, Dympies participated in the Divya Dwivedi RfC, and perhaps include a brief comment. Beccaynr (talk) 21:33, 19 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Elvisisalive95, I can't figure out how to fix the formatting, but the barnstar and your participation in our discussion is much appreciated. Beccaynr (talk) 07:09, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Face Palm for the formatting issues ! Sorry! Elvisisalive95 (talk) 13:37, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers, Elvisisalive95! I typically use the heart icon at the top of a user page to add barnstars etc., and avoid the <nowiki> markup, because that breaks the formatting. There are so many little quirks to figuring out how all of this works, it takes time. Thank you again, Beccaynr (talk) 16:05, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you

Thank you for striking part of your comment and apologizing. I understand that you did not intend to insinuate what some had taken your comments to mean, and I appreciate your display of integrity in clarifying your statement. I hope that we can work together cordially going forward; please know that I don't hold the imprecision against you in any way. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 00:48, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Red-tailed hawk, and best wishes for your adminship. I appreciate your understanding, and I am grateful to those who highlighted the risks for misunderstanding, acted to remediate the misunderstandings that happened, and called me out for my mistakes. And I am sorry for contributing so much heat to what is an already stressful process, but I look forward to working with you in the future. Thanks again, Beccaynr (talk) 03:33, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Laurie Buckhout

You've flagged

Laurie Buckhout as requiring a copyvio revdel, but I can't work out in which revision, the offending material was removed. This information is needed as we have to revdel all the revisions from the edit when the material was added to the point it was removed, not just the revision where it was added. You can add the revision number to the {{copyvio-revdel}} using the |end= parameter. Thanks. Nthep (talk) 12:31, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply
]

Thank you, Nthep - I have updated the template, and I will be sure to include end diffs in the future. Also, please note my removal edit summaries are mostly unclear because I didn't consider the possibility of copyvio until after I had removed various references that did not appear to support article text, and then wondered where the text may have originated; when I checked the campaign website, that is where I found what seemed to be significant enough content to warrant a copyvio review. Thanks again. Beccaynr (talk) 14:35, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. All done now. Nthep (talk) 14:54, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Abigail Larson

Hi there, Beccaynr, and thanks for all your efforts on Abigail Larson before and after the heritage merge. I was intending to sort it out now and discovered you had not only restored the version before the merge but had made further improvements. I'm sorry you had to spend so much time on it but am sure KRKwrites will be pleased to see it is now back to what ORES and Rater consider to be GA status (providing a basis for a B rating on the talk page). This all shows what deep water you can get into when all you want to do is to help new contributors with their first article.--Ipigott (talk) 15:31, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Ipigott - I did try to restore the version before the merge, although I am not sure I got all of it, but I figure review of the edit history will find anything I may have missed. When I saw the article move to mainspace, I was somewhat concerned about an AfD starting (despite the support for notability and the well-written article), so I tried to move quickly to add and emphasize independent and reliable secondary sources. With a subject this prolific, there are a lot of reviews, and I am not particularly familiar with all of the sources, but other Wikiprojects (Videogames, Comics) likely have more experience. In the meantime, it is so nice to see Wikiproject Women in Red in action, supporting new editors (it was not so long ago I was such an editor with my own first article supported by you and other WIR members). Cheers, Beccaynr (talk) 16:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I still spend quite a bit of my time trying to help new contributors, including many who are specifically interested in writing about women. Unfortunately not many of those from the educational environment manage to stay but there are exceptions. We are constantly trying to find new incentives to improve participation. If you have any ideas, you can post them at the bottom of our Ideas page. Thanks once again for all you help.--Ipigott (talk) 16:57, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
