Question from Rontera526 (03:56, 2 March 2025)

[edit]

Hi! just made an edit to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_B._Strimple about adding date of death with cited reference. Can you please check if it is correct? --Rontera526 (talk) 03:56, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry for the late reply, and thanks for your contributions. It's mostly good, a few issues that were cleaned up by other editors (but this is the iterative nature of Wikipedia). It's better to fill out a reference with the title, date, author, etc. instead of just having a bare URL. Dashes are preferred to hyphens for ranges (see MOS:DASH). References should come after the punctuation (WP:REFPUNC). Not sure about the reliability of the source. A reputable newspaper is preferred, but on first glance, the source you gave seems OK. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 06:56, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Emasterbuild (15:03, 8 April 2025)

[edit]

I've had a edit that got destroyed when I tried to submit, not it was blocked, but when was going through the submit process the edits I had made disappeared and was replaced with the page as it was before I could finish. I spent a bunch of time on the edit, is there any chance Wikipedia has some sort of save of that work? I kind of don't want it to have been for nothing. --Emasterbuild (talk) 15:04, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Emasterbuild: Hi, I'm not sure what happened in this case. If someone made an edit in the time it took you to submit, it's called an edit conflict, but your progress is still saved. You just have to merge it.
Unfortunately, Wikipedia does not save in-progress edits. I'd recommend submitting edits more often (you could work in a sandbox, too) or doing something else to save edits. Personally, I will either stash in-progress edits on my desktop notepad or CTRL C every once in a while so the text is saved somewhere. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 06:46, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! That makes sense. Emasterbuild (talk) 16:56, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Developing Countries WikiContest Gold Belt Buckle
The Developing Countries WikiContest Gold Belt Buckle

Hey PerfectSoundWhatever, the Developing Countries WikiContest will be returning for a second year, and sign-ups are now open! The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia.

In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

React Media c/e

[edit]

Hey, hope you are doing well! I was looking through the React Media article and recalled your really good help with copy editing the Jacksfilms article. I was wondering if you had the time & energy to do some similar work on the React page? Absolutely no rush on this, and if you are unable, no worries at all. Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to lend! :) Best wishes, Soulbust (talk) 08:04, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thank you for reaching out! I haven't been too active on wiki recently but I can try to take a look sometime soon. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 19:03, 12 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
