Hello, Samtondiaz, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, especially your edits to Bernie Sanders. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:
You may also want to take the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit The Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.
Hi Samtondiaz! We're so happy you wanted to play to learn, as a friendly and fun way to get into our community and mission. I think these links might be helpful to you as you get started.
Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Jasti Chelameswar, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 08:10, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A page you started (Denis V. Gonchar) has been reviewed!
Please change your recent addition to the infobox at the Ed Murray article to read 5 pm PDT to match the article but also because Murray is in Seattle, Washington and not on the east coast. Thanks. -- ψλ ● ✉ 22:25, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. You reverted an edit I made to a page on Tom Marino. If you were to click on the link for Richard Baum labeled "succeeding" in Marino's infobox, the link will take you to a different Richard Baum, a man who has been dead since 2012. I changed the link to the correct Richard Baum, but the edit was nonetheless reverted. Please let me know if I made a mistake, and if the incumbent ONDCP Director is a man who has been dead for 5 years. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Samtondiaz (talk • contribs) 19:00, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
While you are correct that the link was pointing to the wrong "Richard Baum", the "Rich Baum" you linked to is also not the right person. This portrays the correct guy. This is the guy you linked to. The two had entirely different careers. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:20, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:MOS showing that the way the page is after you reverted by edit is not correct. Infobox font is already smaller than 100%; the use of {{small
}} on text already smaller than 100% is inappropriate. Also, unmentioned in my edit summary, references do not belong in an infobox. Just because we as editors have done something incorrectly in the past is not a reason to continue to do it incorrectly in the present.
So as not to edit war any further than I already have, I ask you to please self-revert. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:47, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Samtondiaz Gina Haspel was confirmed but not Sworn in yet. If you put TBD first that would be ok. Afther they get confirmed and then they take there Olth of Office. And then you can call them Secutary or Dircter. And Sarry about my spelling I have ADHD. Thanks.96.36.68.29 (talk) 20:46, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If you have a Sorce that she is haveing her Swearing in tonight we can put it on tonight. But she might be haveing it tomrrow. You do know what I am saying right?96.36.68.29 (talk) 21:44, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Samtondiaz can you please respond?96.36.68.29 (talk) 19:42, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@96.36.68.29: I understand your concerns about making sure information on term start dates of government officials are accurate. As it relates to Ms. Haspel, she served as Acting CIA Director for a little under a month before being confirmed by the Senate, meaning her term start date would have been April 26th of this year, not May 17th, the day she was confirmed. As it relates to the issue of swearing-in, Haspel was already in office, meaning she had already taken the oath of office upon Mike Pompeo's departure from the CIA-- the Senate confirmation only signals the fact that she could permanently continue serving in the position--she had already been sworn in. The ceremony performed by the Vice President is only ceremonial. It does not, and should not signal the date upon which a person assumes the duties of their office. --Samtondiaz (talk) 23:44, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, please review
Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy and stop being so bureacratically correct at Imran Khan. Encyclopedia's purpose is to convey information to the reader, it does not matter which parameter you are using. The word "office" for office parameter is not visible so it is perfectly okay to add "Candidate for the Prime Minister of Pakistan", it serves to convey the information to the reader so please do not remove that again.

Howdy. Why are you booting lame-duck US Senators & US Representatives out of their seats, when they're still holding those seats? They don't leave until Noon EST. GoodDay (talk) 15:07, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I had to give up. By the time I'd be finished undoing your premature edits, it would be Noon EST. GoodDay (talk) 15:19, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Smatondiaz! I see that you have added to two articles the information that James McPherson has been named acting Secretary of the Navy. I have been looking for sources to add to the articles, but I can't find any reports of this. Can you tell me where you heard this or how you know, so I can add it to the article? Thanks. -- MelanieN (talk) 20:43, 7 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
