User talk:Aoidh

I'm sorry for bothering you, but I assure you, it is not my intention to create a new account.

I was once User:Zero stylinx, my forgetfulness at updating that account with my new e-mail address caused it to be compromised, making me unable to access it. But if you review that account, it has no record of banning in the first place.

I send you this message to ask for your help in how to put labels for my old account that it's no accessible and that I have moved to a new account. It's also because I want to be transparent in my intention and that none of my actions are intended to violate the Wikipedia terms of policy.

(talk page watcher) @Innsmoutraman: Does someone else have access to that account now, or did you just lose access to it? Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:28, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Innsmoutraman, is it compromised in that someone else had control of it, or have you just lost access? ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 01:28, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

I lost access because I forgot to change my e-mail, and now I realized too late when Wikipedia wanted my authentication. The old e-mail, has long been deactivated. Again, it's my fault, but I would not edit any page. I'll just wait for any given appropriate action. Since the old Zero stylinx account is no longer accessible, all I ask for is if this new account can be used to edit pages. Innsmoutraman (talk) 06:03, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Alrighty! Had to make sure this wasn't a joe-job, but I am happy to report you are Confirmed to be the same editor as Zero stylinx. I have granted you extended confirmed (indefinitely) and confirmed (for a month, after which time you should be autoconfirmed). You are welcome to use this account going forward. I'd place {{Old account}} on Zero stylinx's userpage and add a note at User:Innsmoutraman confirming that you previously edited as Zero stylinx.

@Innsmoutraman: I apologize, I was out of town for the weekend. Thanks HouseBlaster and ScottishFinnishRadish. - Aoidh (talk) 18:27, 20 April 2026 (UTC)

Summarize Timeline Fact Check

You've reverted my edits twice for missing or unreliable citations. I didn't have a source the first edit, and I listed the IMDB number for the second edit. John Rhys-Davies appears in the movie - I can see and hear him. He's uncredited so I don't know how to give credit to an uncredited role though he was clearly in the movie. Please indicate how I can make this edit. Thanks. WUpdater01 (talk) 04:51, 17 May 2026 (UTC)

@WUpdater01: Per WP:V: Wikipedia's content is determined by published information rather than editors' beliefs, experiences, or previously unpublished ideas or information. Even if you are sure something is true, it must have been published in a reliable source before you can add it. IMDB is not a reliable source for content like this per WP:IMDB (and that page doesn't appear to even support the claim). For that content to be in the article it would need a reliable source verifying that what is being added is true, especially since this is a WP:BLP. - Aoidh (talk) 05:03, 17 May 2026 (UTC)

I appreciate the high standards. I want to adhere to those. John Rhys-Davies appears in the 1979 'The Prisoner of Zenda' at approximately 52 minutes as a Sergeant of Arms and has a speaking role. That said, if no written/published record of something exists (as available by Internet search) - and yet the thing exists as seen in an image(snapshot) or video(clip from movie), how does one incorporate knowledge that is certain and verified by 'viewing'? What mechanism is in place for that? That's what I'd like to determine. Thanks for responding. WUpdater01 (talk) 17:35, 17 May 2026 (UTC)

If it's an uncredited role and there's no way that the film verifies that John Rhys-Davies is in this film then the film doesn't serve as verification. You think it's him, but it could be someone that just happens to look very similar, and if the information is being challenged then there's no way to verify that it's actually him with the film itself. We would need a source saying that yes, that is in fact John Rhys-Davies in that film. - Aoidh (talk) 22:37, 17 May 2026 (UTC)

Although a I think even an unreliable source, (such as a social media post of the actor or the director) would work. _{In solidarity} Wikipedian12512 (Talking is fine | contribs) 00:36, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

Hello, I just wanted to drop by and say thank you so much for your patience regarding explaining the death date and WP rules to other users and being so vigilant with people's edits. The other editor seemed pretty aggressive but you were so polite for the entire time, it was really admirable so I wanted to let you know it was appreciated. (Wait also I just realised you're on the Arbitration Committee so you probably see a lot of this lol).

Thank you for keeping an eye on Satrapi's page, hope you have a nice day! Felinaex ^{(purr / pawprints)} 02:03, 7 June 2026 (UTC)
