User talk:Gjs238

Hello Gjs238!

• The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
• We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
• If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

The page Viceregal court has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Hello, Gjs238. Thank you for contributing to the categorization of articles. I noticed that you have created a significant number of categories that contain only 1 article. This is unhelpful for navigation as the parent categories are not large enough to warrant diffusion. Most of these will require upmerging, further clogging up CfD. I am sure none of what I've said is reflective of your intentions here so I hope this message recieves you well. Kind regards. Οἶδα (talk) 04:54, 26 January 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your response here. To answer your question: absolutely, yes. Other stuff exists. Those categories can have the same problem too. Their mere existence does not suggest we continue to apply that problem elsewhere in the category system. Οἶδα (talk) 04:15, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I see you edited the Sedgwick Club - thanks! I set up a category for members which is up for deletion. So far I have populated the category with very few people - there are many, many more who read geology/Earth Science as a major part of their Natural Science degree (but I'm an active scientist so doesn't spray stuff about without evidence). Anyway, quite a lot of discussion already why not join it? Cheers. Calc-flinta (talk) 17:24, 10 February 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to David Scott (social media personality). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Launchballer 13:10, 24 February 2026 (UTC)

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Please take a look at my expansion of Kamika Agama, which you nominated for deletion. I noticed that it was originally created by a problematic user, and perhaps that is why you nominated it for deletion, but I hope you'll agree that it is notable enough to stand alone (Agama (Hinduism) needs work anyway). I have also responded at the deletion discussion with my rationale. Drew Stanley (talk) 19:54, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Danners430. I noticed that you recently removed content from Nyala Airport without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Danners430 _{tweaks made} 17:32, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

- Did you have to revert ALL my edits? Gjs238 (talk) 22:48, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

You're removing a huge amount of content without giving any reason whatsoever. You basically emptied the Accidents and Incidents section without explanation, leaving two unsourced wikilinks. Danners430 _{tweaks made} 22:53, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Nyala Airport, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. Danners430 _{tweaks made} 22:52, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

Can you please give me a minute. I was in the process of restoring content to please you and you reverted me again. OMG. Gjs238 (talk) 22:53, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

Because yet again you have no reason at all in your edit summary - it was simply a reversion with no explanation. Edit summaries exist to explain briefly what you're doing - that is why removing content without a summary is problematic. Danners430 _{tweaks made} 23:01, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Swastika, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 23:42, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

Why were my edits reverted? I added no commentary are you wrote above. I added no personal analysis as you wrote above. I work primarily on categorization. As such, I removed two parent categories. Gjs238 (talk) 23:57, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

With this edit you removed two Nazi categories, the only two Nazi categories. They were not parent to other categories. Binksternet (talk) 00:59, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

What you are writing is untrue. The category tree is as follows:

Category:Nazi symbolism > Category:Symbols of Nazi Germany > Category:Swastika > Swastika.
