March 2024
Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia, and articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Nothing. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use your sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write. Paradoctor (talk) 03:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
Your edit of Eurovision Song Contest 1978
Hi, in your recent edit you removed a reference without giving any explanation/reason in your edit summary, leaving that information (broadcast by Télé Monte Carlo) unsourced. I undid your edit as I cannot see any valid reason for removing the reference. EurovisionLibrarian (talk) 16:22, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
Your edit of Slovenia in the Eurovision Song Contest
Hi, your recent attempts to improve the 'commentators and spokespersons' section of this article are appreciated. However, you appear to have removed valuable information (such as the dual commentary of the Val 202 broadcast of 2024) and all information pertaining to radio commentators seemed to be spread wrongly in both the 'commentators' and 'channel' columns. As such, this edit was, in essence, an act of vandalism. If you wish to make improvements, please check their accuracy and perfection using the 'show preview' feature before 'publishing changes'. Your edit made the page misleading and to a poor standard. Due to this vandalism, I have reverted your edit. If you wish to accurately and efficiently improve this section of the page, I advise you to do so again and PROPERLY. Tomls10 (talk) 19:55, 28 May 2024 (GMT)

Eurovision 1966 Austrian Commentator
Hello, I came across this video from the INA archives and was wondering if you might be able to help translate around 7 minutes in? Basically they have a montage of commentators and I am not sure if the German commentator is also the Austrian commentator, and if it is, would it be seen as a valid source? I've copied the link here https://www.ina.fr/ina-eclaire-actu/video/cpf86625868/l-eurovision
Thanks very much Mrluke485 (talk) 21:25, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
- The commentator there is Hans-Joachim Rauschenbach. I put the translation that he said in the contest's broadcast details. Thanks for the info! Bray0829 (talk) 22:34, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

GenealogyBank to Newspapers.com clippings
Hi, you probably didn't need to do that at KATU. It's kinda nice, as obviously The Oregonian wasn't available there when I did that overhaul, but it's probably unnecessary. (I don't mind the clippings of the articles I'd accessed from NewsBank since those were not clipped before.) Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 21:45, 30 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for doing this at KRIV and KNUZ-TV. now that the Houston Chronicle is available in Newspapers.com. I have several more Houston pages that specifically would benefit from this including KTRK-TV, KTXH, KXLN-DT, and KTMD, if you are interested in getting to those.

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! – Jonesey95 (talk) 23:39, 22 July 2025 (UTC)
Please do not use misleading edit summaries when making changes to Wikipedia pages, as you did to Template: Eau Claire TV. This behavior is viewed as disruptive, and continuation may result in loss of editing privileges. Please remember to use Edit Summaries when making wholesale changes or deletions! Thanks! Packerfan386beer here 12:46, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
- Please also remember, the vast majority of users here do not follow the day-to-day minutia of WikiProjects or individual user talk page(s). Just a friendly reminder! Thanks again! Packerfan386beer here 12:56, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
Discord?
I notice you mention you have Discord in your userpage. Are you in WP:DISCORD? It might be a good resource for you. Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 05:50, 18 August 2025 (UTC)

OTI USA
Hi Bray0829. Could I ask you for some help?
While digging for information for the OTI festival, I found that SIN/Univision had a long tradition of large-scale national selections in the USA with many of its affiliates involved. I have been able to put some of the pieces together for the national selections in 1988, 1989, and 1990. Would you mind checking on these and seeing if you can find any further information?. Any piece of information would be a great help in completing the puzzle. Thanks. Ferclopedio (talk) 10:51, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
