Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to 2017 Saint Petersburg Metro bombing. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 09:36, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

@Coffee: It really wasn't vandalism but I only didn't checked the change (I wanted to add a link to article about article about the state the suspected perpetrator came from). Sorry! Regards, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 09:39, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Dear Mr Martin Urbanec: I am only utalising my power of free speech and free will. Why are you trying to block me? My opinion is that Kashmir should be independent, even though I am not even from there! So can you please stop threatening to block me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.150.74.78 (talk) 14:56, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

Dear unregistered editor, Wikipedia isn't a place for opinions, but for facts. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a place for publishing your own opinions. Power of free speech means you're able to speak, but not that you're able to present your opinions anywhere. You can start your own website, for instance, but you can't present your opinions on google.com - and so you can't on Wikipedia. Sincerely, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 15:01, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello, that would make sense, however, it currently shows a citation error, given multiple citations (including <ref name="grg">occupation</ref>) are called grg. Could you please fix that? --Martin Urbanec (talk) 15:58, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

@DePiep: Please see my reply at MediaWiki.org. Thank you, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 22:11, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

I did. Google is commercial. Nothing good can come from there. That is why we do this. (btw, what money is moving where?). -DePiep (talk) 22:53, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

That's a matter of opinion, I guess. Wikimedia doesn't pay anything for the contest, it's funded entriely by Google, who also pays for prices. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 23:46, 23 November 2019 (UTC)

Sorry for the inconvenience, but could you include the photos of the presidential candidates in the article 2020 Dominican Republic general election, with their respective copyright? It’s something very necessary in that article, i can't do it, but I think you can, or do that is even harder for you?.--Oli (talk) 02:33, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Sorry that I missed your message about Google code-in 2019. I was busy. I would like to note that I do not think I would be a good mentor for it, so I won't be signing up for 2020 either. ^Dr.Meepster(<chat> • <userboxes> • <reply>) 05:47, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for letting me know! --Martin Urbanec (talk) 10:30, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Got the message about Google Code-In and checked it out a little bit. And so I saw that it officially started on December 2nd. I'm not sure if it's possible to still sign up and create tasks for the students, but anyway given my overall situation and other priorities I'm not inclined to get more involved for this year.

I thought a little bit about the MediaWiki documentation that I used. Nothing came to mind right away in terms of potential improvements. I think it was pretty good as it was for my project, and the changes I made were relatively minor.

But I'm glad to have heard about Google Code-In, and I could still definitely keep it in mind for future years. It seems like it happens every year at around the same time from December - January. I had heard of Google Summer of Code, but I didn't know about Google Code-In.

Jjjjjjjjjj (talk) 21:55, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

@Jjjjjjjjjj: Hello, yes, it is possible to sign up at any time during the contest period. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Tasks about minor changes are also great, because students do sign up during the whole contest, and they need to have some easy/getting started tasks to start their learning process. Also, it doesn't really have to be about enwiki, if you have some Wikimedia related project and you'd appreciate students doing some improvements there, it's also a great type of task! --Martin Urbanec (talk) 10:29, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Okay, I can definitely keep it in mind. Perhaps I'll get a chance to look into it in more detail for this 2019-2020 instance. Jjjjjjjjjj (talk) 02:58, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

"Doctor No More" is literally his first words.--32.214.191.156 (talk) 18:11, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

I deleted the "Controversies" section on Tom Malinowski's page, because the "Controversies" listed were simply people disagreeing with his beliefs and stating their opinions, along with those of a couple of journalists, rather than actually gauging public belief. A couple of dissidents do not represent the vast majority of the Congressman's constituents and should not be able to work to influence opinion in a destructive way. My edit deleting the section was marked as disruptive, and I object to that ruling, as the section misrepresents public opinion.

You reverted my edits to KDOT (FM) as "not constructive." I was employed at this station in the 1970s, and I was trying to correct the record about the use of these call letters in Scottsdale, Arizona. When you reverted my edits, I was in the process of adding the Template:Cite Web to correctly reference a citation to Paul Michel's excellent article (at http://analieninsouthreno.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-reader-shares-memories-of-reno.html) about the demise of the AM radio station that used the KDOT call letters in 1963. (Was it this citation that triggered Huggle?) The history of the KDOT call letters is noteworthy, and in my opinion, constructive to this article. Further, the earlier version you reverted to suffers from references that are not citations, but comments that belong on the talk page. I respectfully request restoring my edit. Dr. T.

@Pthompsen: Hello Pthompsen, I'm sorry, this seems like a revert mistake. I've undone my edit. Thanks for letting me know! --Martin Urbanec (talk) 08:15, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi Martin,

you need to improve the ref you placed here in the article Curveball. It leads to a review of Shirley, i.e. a different film. Greetings from --Sprachraum (talk) 10:11, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi there, uhh... that's very interesting. It worked earlier today. I have changed that to an archive.org url, which will hopefully not break. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 10:33, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi martin, to complete the fix, it was also necessary to remove url-status=live from the cite. otherwise the link still heads to the original URL. I've done it for you. --Sprachraum (talk) 11:06, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Hello Martin,

Thank you for your prompt response into my update on the Alexander Allen article.

I am writing in response to your message Wednesday March 26th.

I know of Alexander Allen and his work through a corporate event dating back to 2012.  Through social media I began following his career as I do many other individuals. A mutual acquaintance suggested I write articles for Wikipedia to exercise my writing skills. She suggested I work on Alexander Allen’s article, explaining that his article was outdated and that a subject of an article could not write about themselves per Wikipedia rules.  

I created an account and proceeded to make the update based on verifiable information online and information accessible on and through Allen’s Instagram account.

I am happy to make any adjustments to the article to comply with Wikipedia rules and regulations.

I understand and appreciate the commitment to accuracy and facts of you and the Wikipedia community.  

Please tell me how to best proceed

Hello, My edits are not vandalism. Simply put, none of his claims are verified yet are presented as fact. It has actually been demonstrated that the claim to be a BJJ blackbelt, for example, is demonstrably false given that the instructor he claims to be ranked under does not exist, and neither does the academy at which he claims to have trained. Such has been verified by 6th degree BJJ blackbelt (highest ranking black belt in France) and 6 time world champion Paulo Sergio Santos. I would like to request that you reinstate the edits and I look forward to your recommendation on how to proceed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.140.16.202 (talk) 20:48, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I do, but unless I am mistaken, the article doesn't say "Proving her championship to be a fluke", or anything similar to that. Wikipedia articles needs to maintain neutral point of view, and not present opinions as a matter of fact. It would be fine to mention failing to make the cut neutrally, if it is a notable event in her sportlife. Does that make sense? Martin Urbanec (talk) 01:14, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
