External Links Removed
Hello, Davey2010
I took a look at Wikipedia's guidelines about external links, but it didn't seem really clear to me why all my links were removed. Can you point out, specifically, the reason why my links were removed?
Hello Jankrah17, You seem to be posting one website across alot of projects which is considered more or less spammy behaviour, BBC, Daily Telegraph etc are fine but that website isn't so it shouldn't be added, Thanks. –Davey2010Talk 17:50, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
Reverted edits in Botanic Gardens MRT Station
Heya Davey!
I'm kinda curious why you reverted my edits on
Botanic Gardens MRT Station
since by doing that you are essentially removing the "Station layout", "Exits", "Transport connections" and "External links" section too, which are present in every MRT station page. I'm also not quite sure what you were trying to achieve by adding {{S-rail-start}} and {{s-end}} to the page since they are not present in other MRT station pages.
RectorRocks (talk) 12:04, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
Because
we're not a travel guide and I fail to see what's encyclopedic about a bus station layout, the exits and transport connections. The services template was moved from the infobox to the external link section which is where these templates belong (hence the s-start and s-end templates), Thanks. –Davey2010Talk
How about if I replace the infobox with a picture of a banana? Do you think that will be acceptable and get consensus? Ritchie333(talk)(cont) 16:54, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
Ritchie333 - That actually sounds like a great idea and it honestly wouldn't surprise me if that did get consensus! , I would support!. –Davey2010Talk 16:59, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Edit Reverts
Hi Davey2010,
I noticed you have been making edit reverts on Mercedes-Benz O 405 and Mercedes-Benz O 305.
I have fixed the images into a gallery so that it will not sandwich texts. It is also important to show the rear views, because if the readers don't understand the frontal styling, they are able to understand the rear.
Is inserting a gallery ok, I will not put unnecessary images :)
The first revert on Mercedes-Benz O405 was because we didn't need a gallery - A few images are fine but when we have Commons it's generally preferred to have less images as possible, The second revert was again removing the rears of the vehicles as I don't see what use this is ?, Perhaps you could replace an image with a rear or something?,
The revert on Mercedes-Benz O305 was simply because it was all cluttered - The layout is more or less okay IMHO,
I don't really see much point in adding a gallery as we already have Commons :),
Hi there Davey 2010
In July I added some pictures from Wiki Commons to the notable people section of Newcastle-under-Lyme. You reverted that edit on 19th July saying that not all of those images are needed. I can see from a previous section above about Mercedes Buses that you aren't keen on too many pictures.
I've put a talk item on the page for Newcastle under Lyme and invited others to comment of whether they find the pictures useful. My point is that the sequence of pictures, following time, illustrates nicely how the appearance of the notable people has changed. Taken together they provide a visual history of the town.
With this in mind I have posted eleven photos again, positioned below each other and to the right hand side.
If you are unhappy with this new edit, might I suggest (1) you reflect on the power of the visual impact of pictures and when and how that impact can be appropriately used and (2) contribute to a debate on the issue if you again feel inclined to delete the pictures from the Newcastle under Lyme page.
Best wishes

editing MRT stations
Hi Davey 2010,
I realised you reverted some of my edits on some MRT stations in Singapore. I'm writing this to tell you that it is almost impossible to source for bus stops info. Although it is unsourced, I assure you that what i edited is of 100% accuracy of at least a 95%. For now, I'm gonna revert your edits. However, if you have anything to say, please feel free to use my talk page so we can discuss on how the info can be placed in.
Best wishes

Your recent deletion of content in several MRT Stations article
Hi Davey. I just saw some major deletions in some Singapore's MRT Stations' articles such as

Hi
Lakeside shopping centre where it takes forever to get out and you eventually find yourself walking in one huge circle around one shop trying to find the bloody exit so on that front I understand the issues however back on topic regardless of ones confusement we shouldn't really be listing these - They below on the bus station or transport operators website, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk
00:46, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for the quick response! However, I would still keep the station layout sections at interchanges (which means not all MRT Stations), as they are quite complicated in layout. I will reinstate in the future.--
talk
) 00:51, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Sorry not happening - Unless they're truly notable for being like a maze to get out of then I'm afraid there's no reason to include this - Please remember we're not a brochure - If people are unable to get out of a bus station then serious questions need answering but regardless we shouldn't be providing that info, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 01:19, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
That is quite right. I think these sections should be limited to interchanges with 3 or more lines intersecting, such as
Outram Park MRT Station
yet since the Thomosn East Coast Line has not been built yet. The types of platforms for each line can be included in the infoboxes.
Hopefully there can be real improvements soon to such MRT stations! Actually I added the gallery section to improve the articles as it is quite boring for articles with very limited pictures (except stations under construction ot under planning). Putting thumbnail pictures may make the pictures all over the place (like some at the bottom ehich is weird). It can be meaningless, however, if these pictures are plucked from wikicommons.--
talk

I have deleted the same such sections in some MRT Stations, but I thought these stations should still remain:
Bishan MRT Station
Choa Chu Kang MRT/LRT Station
Bukit Panjang MRT/LRT Station
Can you also add more citations to the MRT Stations along the North South Line?

I've removed those too sorry, There are no cites for this because it's simply non notable, Happy editing. –Davey2010Talk 12:33, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
Might as well deleted the rest except
Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station
as these sections are not notable. I have gone through wiki on overseas train stations and found there were no such sections.
I am not sure what others will think for such massive deletions.--

Return of the MRT stations "station layout" problem
For a bit of background info, check
mainly here
Over the past few weeks or so I have discovered that many MRT articles (like
User:LAi zhen kang for more info as he had reverted this edit
, who in turn recommended me to consult you.
(So, here we go again...)
May I ask why is the "station layout" section removed? Based on your earlier answer to
User:LAi zhen kang
on your talk page, you said:
regardless of ones confusement we shouldn't really be listing these - They below on the bus station or transport operators website
Looking at the train operator's websites (for example its websites for
Exactly - if they don't publish it then we don't need to either, Station exits and layouts don't need to be included as they're not notable, Thanks. –Davey2010Talk 16:52, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
Hello, it's round 3 of this discussion. Having a station layout section does improve the quality of the article.
Firstly, it's a useful addition for reference. There are locations in the MRT that do get confusing, and are useful for creating the Template:MRT_route/East_West rail route diagram that you see in all of the MRT line guides.
Secondly, Wikipedia is not just a mirror of the official website. There is an official website people can go to. Not being officially published by the primary source does not mean we should not include such information. Imagine only being able to include information about Kim Jong Un being a great leader as such is published by the North Korean government.
Finally, it is not a necessity to nuke exit information either. It is useful to commuters too. Considering that Wikipedia can be accessed anywhere, unlike the station specific diagrams located at the stations, it makes such an article a functional tool for many users of the MRT.
There are many people other than myself who know that these diagrams are a fine addition to the page, and practical for travels to stations new to us.
Well that worked out well didn't itModernponderer, May I suggest in future if you have an issue with me that you actually discuss it with me and Nate first before running to a noticeboard!. –Davey2010Talk 15:14, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

When I look at all of the revisions that Moxmarco made, the image displays for me. I wonder if it's possible you're having a browser anomaly—or maybe there was some MediaWiki bug that has cleared up spontaneously. Do you see it here? RivertorchFIREWATER 20:00, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
Hi Rivertorch, Ah the image shows now and also shows in all of the revisions, Well FWIW the laptop's been struggling as of late so I have no idea if it was related to the laptop, Chrome or whether it was MediaWiki related, Should've tried on Firefox, Anyway I'm not so sure if the image is an improvement over the current one ?, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 20:36, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
It's a very useful image that probably would work better somewhere other than the infobox. RivertorchFIREWATER 20:40, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

List of pharmacies
Davey2010 Hi Davey, I added 3 names in online pharmacies but you removed all the three. Medlife is Indias Banglore based pharmacy scaling its e-pharmacy operations in millions through its website and application. There are many links but you can check this link. Another Pharmeasy is pharmacy application and Pharmacy aggregator which also scales up to Rs 111 Crore. Heres the link. Third, ChemistOnline which was second medicine portal of India who had FDA Enquieires but now again resumed. here's link . Kindly please allow these names. There are very famous in India and working at PAN India level. I request you to search their names on Google news to know the facts of companies dealing in billions. Hope to receive a positive reply and undo the edit. Thanks a lot. Shweta Shwetamits (talk) 07:56, 27 September 2017 (UTC)

I'm looking for your help. After I cleaned up and reverted edits to Talkradio and Virgin Radio UK the IP editor has reverted me and put the page back to his revision without providing a reason. I'm coming to you for this as you thanked me for my original edit. I don't want to keep reverting as of course that should be avoided and I fear that if I did he would just ignore it like he did to my edit summaries so I'm coming to a more experienced editor who isn't part of this and asking you to speak to him so that he doesn't do it again.

Hi Geraldo Perez, First off I apologise for getting worked up over it and I apologise for assuming bad faith with you, Tbh I had no idea about there being over 10 refs I just assumed it was fine for any number, Not sure about anyone else but "30em" always looks neater to me but I can see from an outside perspective it might seem a pointless edit,
I'm not having a go but it might be a good idea to come to my talkpage first as that way I can read it all before reverting you that's all,
Anyway thanks for kindly popping by and again my apologies for earlier - Happy editing :), –Davey2010Talk 16:55, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
Davey2010, I would advise against using 30em for refs if there are less than 10 refs, and especially if there are less than 6 – I've seen editors use the equiv. of "2-column" format when there is just one or two refs, and it tends look ridiculous, if it doesn't just outright render the sourcing unreadable... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 18:41, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

A message
Good timings Davey2010, somebody told you things are very clear like source of news could be wrong, it depends what you think the information is make any sense of not. Do not even try to put where the new sources(news) come from that not confirmed right away. Think about this, like sedan cars dimension how big they are to input the class correctly. Also if a term of the word's color is red, presents the page is not confirmed, and it will have to be fixed to let the word change it back to blue. Another example is: I found Mercedes-Benz C-Class W205 it has 9-speed 9G-TRONIC automatic, there has something wrong over the page. To be honest, you must not revert or undid the page without our permission until someone's found something wrong or make some new updates on it. So you have to read and think what is our opinion. Dude It's very important to let everyone in the world looks at the pages are correctly. Don't be like a bot, change yourself please thank you! We hope you understood what are we saying! If you don't like our ideas edit, go make your own new wiki website to put the information that you like @Davey2010 and @GrapefruitScuplpin!

Fabolous discography
Hey, just letting you know as I saw your edit summary ("improper listing of some (apparent?) Bubbling Under positions. (See WP:USCHARTS" makes next to no sense ??? ... as such removed the cleanup template) on
WP:SYNTH, as it is combining two charts with different methodologies). I don't know about its relevance or helpfulness to other editors, so I haven't restored it, but I don't remove it when I do see it myself as I understand why it is there (and the discography does still contain peaks of "103" and "105" in the US column).

I fixed the 100+Bubbling Under peak combinations last week or something already anyway, so there's no need to restore the template. Ss112 02:08, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Agtx - I was unaware there was a discussion but regardless the entry should be removed after the discussion has closed - The discussion can easily change direction so it's best left where it is. –Davey2010Talk 17:10, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
Can I ask why that is? The normal practice on Wikipedia is bold, revert, discuss. You're skipping the revert step. agtx 18:23, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
BRD is for editors who add controversial content and are reverted - As of yet I've not been reverted and as I said the entry should be removed after the discussion not before .... so BRD is irrelevant here, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:28, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
Um, this doesn't make any sense. That is literally exactly the opposite of BRD. Someone added a name to deaths. It was reverted. Now we're having a discussion. Then you stepped in and reverted the reversion. That last part is wrong. The controversial edit gets readded if there's consensus to do so. I was hoping you'd understand this and revert yourself, but since you don't, I'll go ahead and do it for you. agtx 19:48, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

The amazing part to all of this is that your website itself makes no mention of any month in 2000,
since the show started. It is a much better way of showing the characters, it's simple and shows which cast of the current characters, and which have left the show. I don't understand why you think it should be changed all of a sudden, it's much better this way.
Hi Anonymous person, I've not changed anything - I've just slapped you with a 3rr warning, You're gonna have to talk to the editor who disagrees with your additions, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 22:32, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
I am the creator of the Smoke Radio logo, so could you please not keep changing the logo to an incorrect version as the version I uploaded is my own work so can be displayed on the article. We use the wordmark logo inside a polygon, not cropped.

As an FYI, if you need revdel for private material in the future, you can use this tool to find an admin who has been online recently and then email about the material. You can also always email the oversight team directly at Special:EmailUser/Oversight. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:41, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi TonyBallioni, As I said I wasn't sure if anyone over there was alseep and as I was about to head off myself I didn't see the point in emailing them if they were potentially asleep (I've emailed them before in the morning and 2 hours later they still did nothing and I had to go to ANI for that revdel to be done), Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 10:09, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Yeah, I've been in that situation before too. I'm only mentioning it because every oversighter I've ever talked to would prefer there be some wait to it being posted at ANI because of the Streisand effect. The best solution is typically to email an admin who has been on recently directly (or go on IRC and type "!admin" or "!oversight".) Thanks for keeping an eye out for stuff like this :) TonyBallioni (talk) 12:47, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi TonyBallioni, If I'm honest I never like to post revdel over there it's always my last option and if i'm honest when I do post it at ANI I do always expect some sort of stick for it (and quite rightly so),... Ah yeah I've used RFC twice I think ... Okie dokie well if I ever see revdel stuff again in the morning I'll try emailing first and If no reply then yeah will go to IRC,
Anyway thanks for your message & tips :), Happy editing, –Davey2010Talk 12:54, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

You never go researching before deleting articles. I don't think I would ever like to contribute on Wikipedia again. You deleted two articles about Kenyan musicians which am sure you know nothing about.Why don't you always allow the public contribute to articles before hurrying to delete them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 105.160.142.36 (talk) 04:10, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

I've nominated them for deletion ... there's a difference, The public has had ample time to source these articles however they haven't sourced them because there is no sources. –Davey2010Talk 04:27, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
Two pilgrims go out hunting. One has two blunderbusses (guns).
The second pilgrim queries, “Why two blunderbusses?”
The first pilgrim responds, “I usually miss on the first shot; with two I can shoot again”.
The second pilgrim pauses, then asks, “Why not just take the second one, and only shoot once?”

I've seen you editing recently and you seem knowledgeable about Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; currently Wikipedia needs experienced users at this task. (After gaining the flag, patrolling is not mandatory. One can do it at their convenience). But kindly read the tutorial before making your decision. Thanks. — Insertcleverphrasehere(or here) 09:58, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
I notice that you have the "administrator someday" userbox. Reviewing new pages is one of the best ways to develop experience needed to successfully wield the mop. (As a side note... I thought you were already an admin ;) — Insertcleverphrasehere(or here) 09:58, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

ANI Experiences survey
Beginning on November 28, 2017, the Wikimedia Foundation Community health initiative (Safety and Support and Anti-Harassment Tools team) will be conducting a survey to en.wikipedia contributors on their experience and satisfaction level with the Administrator’s Noticeboard/Incidents. This survey will be integral to gathering information about how this noticeboard works - which problems it deals with well, and which problems it struggles with.
The survey should take 10-20 minutes to answer, and your individual responses will not be made public. The survey is delivered through Google Forms. The privacy policy for the survey describes how and when Wikimedia collects, uses, and shares the information we receive from survey participants and can be found here:

ArbCom 2017 election voter message
Hello, Davey2010. Voting in the
2017 Arbitration Committee elections
is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 10 December. All users who registered an account before Saturday, 28 October 2017, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Wednesday, 1 November 2017 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy
describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
At the end of October I made the edit documented here that you later reverted, I realized that the edit was not necessarily a reputable source, but I was wondering why it was resorted to a non-source that does not seem to exist as I could not find it after scrolling the searches for "punk Subaru Impreza" as well as "like+punk+rock" "like punk rock". I would like to choose a source that can be found, I was considering using this one because it is easily accessible, but if you prefer another source I am also considering these:
If you have any advice or input on how I should move forward that would be greatly appreciate! The Editor's Apprentice (talk) 05:46, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello
Hi, I'm sorry for templating you. I accept my mistake. I did that because you blindly reverted me atleast twice on Ronan's page. I agree that I should have sent you a message instead of a template. Will keep that in mind henceforth. Thank you. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:18, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi Krimuk2.0, No worries and I apologise for the language, I also apologise for reverting you - Having looked at each and every edit I was indeed unknowingly reverting your edits instead of theirs so I sincerely apologise for that,
Torah was edit warring and got blocked but one of the revisions didn't seem to revert theirs so I kinda assumed the edits I were reverting were theres (I didn't realise you changed the paragraph I thought you just changed the image), Anyway I apologise for the mess and will be a lot more careful in future, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:38, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
Thank you, Davey. And I apologise yet again for causing all this brouhaha that could have easily been avoided with one simple message. That was really stupid of me, in hindsight. I hope to have much-more fruitful interactions with you in the future. Cheers, Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:40, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
No worries and I apologise for obviously causing all of this mess, Obviously you wasn't to know inre to the templates but anyway all under the bridge :), Thanks for your message and as I said below I hope we can work together again the future but under a lot nicer conditions :), Thanks again, –Davey2010Talk 18:52, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
I hope Davey doesn't mind me popping in, but I'd just like to clarify what I've been unable to do on the board. Re. your point here, the second sentence is not necessarilly always or even often the case. Editors telling other editors to fuck off is a symptom- a reaction- not a cause. And most editors here being relatively sensible (*points at Davey2020 as object lesson*), which leads one inexorably to realise that there must, then, be a bigger problem, a causatory one. Naturally then, that should be addressed first. This is not by the way intended to inflame the discussion, or point at Krimuk2.0 (was there a 1.0, btw?!), or even to excuse a perceived incivility,but just to show there's always a broader perspective with these things. Take care! >SerialNumber54129...speculates 18:34, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for the thoughtful message, SerialNumber. In my defence, my templating his page was also a knee-jerk reaction to his blind reverts at Ronan's page. However, that was wrong of me, and I agree that I should not have done that and instead should have initiated a conversation first. --Krimuk2.0 (talk) 18:40, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Ofcourse I don't mind :), I will also add (as a whole) the "fuck off" is me angrily reverting - I take no enjoyment from telling anyone to f off but for me it's just a quick angry reaction (I've never been the one to shy away from the fact I do have a temper issue (always have) but being calmer is easier said than done atleast for me - I get angry irl and i get angry here more or less in the same way), Anyway all in the past hopefully we'll see and work with each other in the future, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:48, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

Edit conflict ... posting here
Davey2010, I ran across an edit conflict when responding to your comment regarding File:Logo-text.png. Since you removed your comment, I'll post mine here in case why I did what I did didn't make sense:
On Commons, it's customary for ambiguous file names to target File:Name.jpg. Better that than content at that title being recreated.
Hope that explains why I did what I did, in case it did not make sense. Steel1943 (talk) 01:58, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm wishing you a Merry Christmas, because that is what I celebrate. If you don't like Christmas or just don't celebrate it in any of its forms, then please accept a generic "Happy Holidays". If you celebrate no holidays at this time of year, then hopefully you will be satisfied with an even more generic "Season's Greetings". :)

Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail. Mind! I don’t mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country’s done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

Hi Anomalocaris, There's a bit of a problem .... I've had the same format since 2014 so from then to now I've whacked the template out to a good 300-500 editors .... so I'd imagine there's over 400 lint errors atleast (and that's without people copying & pasting the template elsewhere),
Anyway having done a comparison, your fixes cause gaps inbetween the sentences - Is there anyway the old gap can be kept?,
Thanks and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year :), Thanks, –Davey2010Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 11:11, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
{{font}} was driving me crazy, so I removed it and entered the basic markup. That restored your line spacing and kept out the lint errors. Cheers!—Anomalocaris (talk) 19:47, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi Anomalocaris, It turns out I copied the code from another editor last year ... needless to say once this year's done I'll go back to the old layout, Anyway thanks for help :) –Davey2010Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 20:03, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi Gerda Arendt, The template and text all look fine here, Could you send a screenshot as I'm lost on this, Could I ask does this template look unnormal as well ?, I appeared to have nicked this years coding from another editors Xmas box ..... but on this laptop it looks like this (left image), Thanks, –Davey2010Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 14:30, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi again, I did use this before rolling it out and it looked fine on any medium device, That being said Bzuk doesn't add {{clear}} below their greeting which causes my text and images to all drop down, Other than that I'm not aware of any issues, Thanks, –Davey2010Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 14:39, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
I believe you. When I widen the screen, all looks fine, but with a smaller screen, it's too much text sandwiched between the images, and appears below the frame. Perhaps I am the only one ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:54, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

Hope you don't mind, but I've been fixing your Xmas graphic when I happened to come across it on various TPs because the text is not fitting properly. You might want to take a look at it.

Hey Dave! I was wondering if you could re-open the ORCP thread. I think usernamekiran can use a couple more comments for his own good (which will be helpful to know what else he needs to work on; early closure may compel the editor to actually test the waters prematurely, as one of the recent experience suggests). If not, it's okay too. Merry Christmas! Alex Shih (talk) 18:01, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

lol* The clear template only works for what comes afterward; i.e., the next section post or post outside your code - the div depth is what needs to be deeper (more pixels). If you don't use much text (or long sentences that wrap) you might clear the depth, but longer lines of text is when it bleeds beyond the borders. That's why I made it a 300px depth (or whatever is required depending on the # of lines.) Atsme📞📧 19:38, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
If anyone on a mobile device has seen my Xmas template this year then I can only but apologise!, I did check screen resolutions for medium devices however I assumed editors wouldn't be using smaller devices .... I was wrong!,
So to those with smaller devices my Xmas template looks absolutely horrendous so my apologies for this - Next year I'll revert the code and stick to one image :), Thanks –Davey2010Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 20:07, 25 December 2017 (UTC)
