On 5 July 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Pop out cake, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that an early predecessor of the pop out cake was a pie from which a dwarf emerged for Charles I of England in 1626? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Pop out cake. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Pop out cake), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I inadvertently forgot to give credit where credit is due. Facepalm In my edit summary I should have given credit to the Wikipedians who created the Odometer artivle and added that picture.

Hello Douglas! (Tuesday, July 5, 2016 10:00 AM)
I hope you are doing well! My name is Miriam Anzovin, and I'm one of Steve's kids (the middle one). I think I recall in the past you got in touch with my mom and sister about the wiki page you created for my dad, and asked for any further sources and any info we might have in order to make the page the best page it can be! I've recently been going through some old documents and found things like his old resume that might be helpful in this effort, as well as I noticed a few little inaccuracies on the current page (for example, Anzovin Studio sadly did not create Halo 2, although that would have been amazing lol. Bungie Studios created that game, as you can see on the Halo 2 wiki page. ) Would your prefer me to send you the documents to update the page, or do you mind if I go in and make a few tweaks based on this sourced information? Please let me know your preference on how to proceed! All the best, Miriam Anzovin

Miriam,
Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, I would say for you to go ahead and edit the article yourself. Especially since you have the most knowledge on the subject. I know technically how Wikipedia works, and if I see something that needs tweaking I'll make the improvements on the edits you may have made. Need references for any new material you may add = references are defined as that previously published (i.e. book like Famous First Facts, magazine, newspaper clipping). A resume is NOT considered a reference, as that is considered Original Research (which is not allowed) . Removal of inaccuracies would be great (i.e. Halo 2).... Thanks for your help on this article. Doug Coldwell - the Wikipedian

Hi Doug!
Gotcha--I'll not use the resume as an actual source, but it will definitely help point me in the direction of acceptable sources (ie from his published works, articles, etc.) Thanks so much! I'll collect as much data as I can and then make the edits to the page. Obviously if you spot something that I listed or sourced incorrectly, please let me know! But I will do my level best to make sure everything is up to wiki standards. Best, Miriam

Hello, 7&6=thirteen -- I hope you are enjoying the summer. I have a question for you. I stumbled upon Kraft Foods Inc and was puzzled by the lack of punctuation. I think normally, it would be written, "Kraft Foods, Inc." I can understand if the company itself prefers no comma, but "Inc", with no period, I find odd. Then, in the first line of the article, it says "Kraft Foods Inc.", with a period. So, I guess this is two questions. Is the punctuation in the title of the article correct? If so, shouldn't the name of the company in the first line of the article match the title? – Corinne ( talk) 05:04, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

You might want to take a look at the talk page before getting involved in this article. It's been quite a ride. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 21:18, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
Hi 7&6=thirteen,
Your re-insertion of material [1] [2] fixed the formatting error but didn't respond to the substantive complaint. Please allow me to expand upon it here. First, it is not true that this was announced in August. As the cited article correctly notes, the most recent step in this story happened in mid-July, when the AFSCME convention approved it (though there is no evidence that it was contentious, so this was in that sense just a formality). But in fact it is older news than that: here is a New York Times article about the same event, from May. Second, "two unions agree to work together" is clearly newsworthy, but to give it an entire section in the articles on SEIU and AFSCME is massively overstating its significance. This is particularly because the merger aspects are pure speculation: there is no actual evidence that such a thing is going to happen in the forseeable future. For these reasons, I request that you reconsider your edit. I am willing to discuss alternative wording and placement if you like.
All the best,
JBL ( talk) 21:48, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Mackinac Bridge shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being
blocked from editing—especially if you violate the
three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three
reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
You are also adding back unsourced, trivia and nonreliable (IMBD) information. Only add back the information when actually having a reliable source.

During a discussion regarding the article on Marquette, MI, John from Idegon suggested I create an article about the Presque Isle Harbor Breakwater Light, which I'm considering. He also suggested that you might be a person who could help with such an article and/or that you might already have such an article in progress. Is that something you are working on or do you have suggestions for information sources? I already have the National Register of Historic Places description. Thanks Sf9000 ( talk) 01:23, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
I just now added Army and Navy Union of the United States of America for a Good Article nomination. Someday it will be reviewed and given some issues to solve before it is made a Good Article. Since you have some interest in this article, I thought I would give you a heads up on that. Then you can look it over in the near future and do some tweaks in preparation for this GA review. If you take care of those issues brought up by the reviewer, then you have 'brought it to GA status' = another green icon for wallpaper on your User Page.
I have also these articles in for GAN. If any of them look interesting to you that you may want to 'bring to GA status' THEN put on your watch list and you will catch the Reviewer's issues to work on. Then you get more green GA icons for wallpaper. If you don't respond to one within a day of the GA review (whenever it happens), then I'll assume you are not interested and will solve the issues myself to bring to GA status. As you can see it isn't all that difficult, especially when you are already familiar with the article and subject, as in these cases of articles we worked on together in the past.-- Doug Coldwell ( talk) 21:17, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

− − The dispute over the trademark on the M-22 marker has been intentionally omitted from the article on the highway. Past consensus is that it is not germane to an article on the highway, but it would be germane to an article on the company. Further, if this position were reversed, it would be better to include a single mention in the already existing section of the article about cultural references.

You may want to change your username. It appears to be causing trouble when it's used in a {{
yo}}-type template. See, for example,
WP:RPP#Vitamin C (singer). If you have the correct settings on, it says in large red letters: Error in
Template:Reply to: Username not given. My guess would be that the = sign is throwing it off since that's used to declare parameter names. The template sees the parameter |7&6=thirteen
and, because the template doesn't have the parameter name (|7&6=
) in the template code, it doesn't do anything with it. Hence, the "Username not given" error. —

Hi, 7&6! Sorry for referring to you as "they" at the Drmies talk page. I'll know better next time. Also, a suggestion: when you have a "hot and happening now" vandalism situation at a page, feel free to call my attention to it at my talk page (assuming you first check my contributions to make sure that I am online). Or do the same with any other currently online admin. That can get action a lot faster than requesting at WP:RFPP, where the wait for a response is commonly hours. -- MelanieN ( talk) 17:53, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Most of the brands do not pass the notability test, many of them are not written from a neutral point of view. The only reason they are there is the inclusion of cinnamon which does merit their inclusion on the Fireball page. If this was the case every product with pineapple would have similar products with pineapple addition. My best option is to meet in the middle and create a new page about the cinnamon flavored subsection and we can include cinnamon products on that page. Please look through the similar products. Many of the citations are not independent third party citations or have any reputability. Some of the citations go on to promote the brands ad agencies and it really seems this is not being written in good faith, rather as a marketing tactic. Bermsalot ( talk) 11:03, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi, 13 - the confusion has been cleared up at Template talk:Beef, and the beef cattle line that was causing our confusion was removed from the template. The intent of the category template is beef as in meat for food rather than for use on articles about beef cattle. I removed Category: Beef from both Piedmontese and North American Piedmontese, and changed it to Category: Beef Cattle Breeds. If you come across other articles about beef cattle that use the Beef template, please take a moment to correct it. Thanks for your hard work, and all the great editing you do!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Yahoo! doesn't like my IP address for some reason? It rejected my reply to you. Anyway I think this is OK to post on-wiki: I'm assuming the pings to you that didn't work were via a template. In MediaWiki, if the value of a template parameter contains an equals sign, you must specify which parameter it is a value for. So E.g. {{ping|7&6=thirteen}} will not work, since the system thinks "thirteen" is the value for the "7&6" parameter. You must instead use {{ping|1=7&6=thirteen}} (1= says make whatever is after it apply to the first unnamed parameter). Anyone pinging you with a template will have to remember to do this. However a normal wikilink like {{ping|1=7&6=thirteen}} should work fine. The same is true if you add your signature to any template. For instance {{archive top|1=Closing this discussion ~~~~}}. I have to do the same with my signature, since the markup contains an equals sign. Hope this helps! — MusikAnimal talk 12:22, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

I've been meaning for awhile to ask someone to help me in making a slight adjustment. I've noticed that the term "60s punk" currently re-directs to the article, Proto-punk. However, the term is used by fans of mid-1960s garage rock to refer to the music of that era. While proto-punk does include 60s garage, it also refers to later music from genres of the early 1970s. An editor just added a mention that "60s punk redirects here" a the top of the garage rock article. While though it doesn't currently direct there, he is correct that it should. Now might be a good time to make that change of having the term "60s punk" redirect to Garage rock. Could you be of assistance? Thanks, Garagepunk66 ( talk) 02:34, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

Are you guys above discussing anything , like some angry , abusive father figure ? I try to click on anything on MY talk page to talk you guys and there is nothing I see to do that . that's why I comment on YOUR talk pages . What do you call people that lie about you or others ? The guy lied claiming my comment that simply pointed out , in great detail , the mistake in an article . How is going into detail so the mistake can be better understood some huge crime , personal attack , harassment , vandalism or insult ? There is nothing I see that I can click on MY talk page to talk back to you guys . But I guess I'm not supposed to talk back because talking back( trying to discuss something ) is vandalism and harassment . I really don't see how any questions I have asked are insulting . Civility should work both ways . Are you guys now going to block me because I dared to say something back ? I am not doing any of things you guys asked m not to do with this comment , so there should be no problem with this comment or the last one I made . If you guys REALLY meant " don't you dare write another word to any us about anything or else we'll block you " , then THAT'S what you guys should've wrote . Yeah . . . . I know . . . ... . . how dare I try to use the talk page to actually talk ? Lol . The nerve of me . I am being humorous here , so don't read this with an evil , angry , type of attitude . The problem with writing online is people put your words into their own context and say your written words to themselves with the emotion and voice they imagine you'd be using . I think that was the problem with the guy that started this whole thing by taking totally harmless comment as some huge insult and personal attack .

Do we have any idea what materials were used to construct the structural elements of the Wawatam Lighthouse? The key role of a welder, Ed Morris, hints that the lighthouse could have been built and then rebuilt with steel plates raised as a curtain wall around a structural armature, but I have never been inside the structure and do not know the answer.

Thanks for the edit, but we're talking about line-by-line paraphrasing in the 1st and 2nd paragraphs. Perhaps you can condense them and eliminate the storytelling nature of the prose? Yoninah ( talk) 20:10, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
