I just came over and read your future plan on rewriting list. For me personally, I will left that to you. How about you put your name on the taskforce. Anyone who interested can join!

Sure, I can do that. Oh, and one thing, how do you cite magazines? I've been working on rewriting Gold City's article and I've been struggling how to format those types of citations as most of the citations from the original Japanese article come from magazines? ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 17:27, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

Use cite book. Titles, language, issue, pages. I did that mostly for magazines. No need for url because you cannot access that online. Lowyat Slyder (talk) 22:46, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for the advice. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 23:22, 19 June 2026 (UTC)

Hope you refer to User:Kline for this.

Yeah, I created a new draft because I was wondering if I should edit it since that is on their user subpage instead of a standalone draft. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 14:52, 22 June 2026 (UTC)

Hey, I saw your edits on Diktaean and Ecoro Duel, and I wanted to say that I was told by User:Axolitl to change a few parameters, of which some you changed. You best take a look at my talk page. Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 20:04, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

I see. So, what do parameters do you want me to deal with? ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 20:16, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

1: | horsename = Ecoro Duel
エコロデュエル as he said, the infobox doesn't support other languages as long as it isn't changed on the infobox page itself; there shouldn't be the Japanese version.

2: Ecoro Duel (Japanese: エコロデュエル, Hepburn: Ekoro Dueru; foaled 4 May 2019) should always look like Ecoro Duel (Japanese: エコロデュエル, Ecoro Duel; foaled 4 May 2019) This helps with screen readers and language tagging. Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 21:03, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

If you think these things should be changed, you should talk with User:Axolitl Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 21:09, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

I see. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 21:18, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

Hey, regarding the race ratings in the article (GIII, GI, etc.): is there a specific reason why you removed them? If so, could you let me know? If this was done in accordance with established guidelines, I would like to avoid using these designations in future articles. Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 20:26, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Admittedly, I removed them for cosmetic reasons as I felt they were a bit extra. However, I have seen other similar articles not use the race ratings, so this isn't a universal rule to include the race ratings. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 20:30, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Ah, okay. I always included them because I thought it would be quicker for the reader to see the grading directly.

But now the question is whether or not it should continue to be included in future articles? Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 20:41, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

The thing is, I’ve already done a few dozen articles with this, and I was planning to keep doing it in the future. Mehmed Nâzım (talk) 20:42, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

I guess it really depends on whether you think its necessary to include the race ratings. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 20:45, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Hi ItzAPotato2009! I noticed that you recently made an edit at Silence Suzuka and marked it as "minor", but it may not have been. On Wikipedia, "minor edit" refers only to superficial edits that could never be disputed, such as fixing typos or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not minor, even if it only concerns a single word.

I noticed your earlier correct use of the minor tag for your edit of the table formatting in the Racing Form section. That being said, your subsequent edit that merged the lead section into a single paragraph is substantive and should not be marked as a minor edit. Even though the core text didn't change, your edit merged the entire lead section as the opening paragraph. This is an editorial choice that needs to be visible on watchlists.

I also reverted the edit because MOS:BEGIN requires the first paragraph to act as a standalone definition of the topic, distinct from the rest of the summary. Merging the lead section as the entire opening paragraph would conflate this basic definition with the broader summary of Silence Suzuka's career and death, hence the reversion.

Thank you. GevisarJJ (talk) 14:25, 23 August 2026 (UTC)

Your good article nomination of the article Mejiro Dober has failed. See the review page for more information. If or when the reviewer's feedback has been addressed, you may nominate the article again.

Hello, I'm Gurkubondinn. An edit that you recently made to Draft:Umanari 1 Furlong Theater seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Text produced by these applications is not allowed on Wikipedia, and may contain factually inaccurate statements, fictitious citations, or other problems. You should instead read reliable sources and then summarize those in your own words. Your edit may have been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or ask your questions at the Teahouse, a friendly place for new users. Thanks. ‑‑gurkubondinn 18:46, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

About the text I pasted on, it was text from the jp.wikipedia aritcle 馬なり1ハロン劇場 - Wikipedia that I translated using DeepL. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 22:23, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

I was planning on rewriting the text to something more cohesive at some point. ItzAPotato2009 (talk) 22:24, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
