Re:

Hello. The tally section includes: "Just vote in the survey section above. Others will take care of the update here."

For the sake of organization and the integrity of the voting, please post a bolded vote in the survey section. Thank you. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 21:22, 8 February 2025 (UTC)

This is a worldwide project and it is inappropriate to limit any discussion by citizenship or nationality. I encourage you to withdraw this "poll". Cullen328 (talk) 03:57, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

The edit in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gulf_of_Mexico%E2%80%93America_naming_dispute&diff=1280297308&oldid=1280275877

Your explanation: "Clarifying that the new name is only required to be used in the executive branch."

My Reversion: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gulf_of_Mexico%E2%80%93America_naming_dispute&diff=next&oldid=1280297308

My counter-explanation: "I believe the name change was initiated by the executive branch, but is intended to apply to all Americans, as evidenced by the AP fiasco".

A possible third edit: to change its name to the "Gulf of America" within the U.S. federal government.

Third edit rationale: See Executive Order 14172 — "The BGN is authorized to standardize geographical endonyms and exonyms within the U.S. federal government."

I believe that this third edit is supported by the sources and you are free to make it. I won't make it myself at this time because it appears that, although the U.S. Dept. of the Interior doesn't have the authority to cause technology companies or news organizations to make the change, it appears that Trump's order did have that effect (e.g., Google, Axios), and that he is attempting to punish at least some organizations (such as AP News) for not making the change.

Another possible edit: to change its name to the "Gulf of America" within the U.S.

Your call! Happy editing. 1101 (talk) 02:46, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Hello. For future reference, this does not meet the description of "minor" edit. Help:Minor edit: "A minor edit requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute." At an article where linking is often a disputed matter, and Grover Cleveland has recently been a disputed matter, it's incorrect to say the link to Cleveland "could never be the subject of a dispute"; and it was inappropriate to mark the edit as minor.

If you clean up a cite, fix obvious formatting, spelling, or grammar issues, etc., then it's a minor edit.

Let me know if you don't know why this is somewhat important; otherwise I'll save myself the time required to explain it. ―Mandruss ☎ IMO. 14:01, 17 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks. -- 68.2.138.130 (talk) 23:50, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

An article you recently created, Timeline of Donald Trump's second presidency (2025 Q2), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Thanks for uploading File:Trump vs. Penguins - IMG 4674.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:18, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

Since you're a non-admin that closed a move discussion of a move-protected page, you need to request admin assistance at WP:RMTR. Zaathras (talk) 21:06, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Not only that, but they were an involved participant in the move request. As I recall, people involved cannot close the discussion. Turtletennisfogwheat (talk) 23:26, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Lol, I didn't even catch that he had participated. Jesus, this guy has made this into a damn dumpster fire. Zaathras (talk) 04:12, 23 April 2025 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Primos (TV series), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dominican. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Can you not please remove the entertainment section on 2020s article? It has significance, such as decline of physical media and the rise of streaming services. 205.155.225.248 (talk) 19:09, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

I added a sentence about the decline of physical media and the rise of streaming services to the lead section. GN22 (talk) 20:11, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to White House Rose Garden. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Thank you.

Hello. I noticed that your edit to Washington, D.C. did not use 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! ViperSnake151  Talk  22:31, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello, GN22. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Timeline of Donald Trump's second presidency (2025 Q2), a page you created, has not been edited in at least five months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 00:08, 26 August 2025 (UTC)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to change the title of a page by cutting its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. charlotte ^👸♥ 23:25, 6 September 2025 (UTC)

Please remember that United States Department of Defense is under a BRD restriction, which means that if another editor reverts an edit you made, you must start a discussion on the talk page rather than re-reverting. Please self-revert your edit and open a discussion at Talk:United States Department of Defense. Donald Albury 21:39, 19 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello, GN22. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Timeline of Donald Trump's second presidency".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:46, 25 September 2025 (UTC)

Can I ask you a question? How is this a better image placement than this? The former separates the images for desktop and mobile, providing ample white space for readability and avoids bunching the images up together. It also places the July 31 rendering in the appropriate and relevant Planning section next to the text "Plans for the ballroom were announced by the White House on July 31, 2025." Finally, the lead image shows the original wing. To summarize: 1) it is considered poor design to bunch images together like you did, and 2) you removed the image from its original context.
