Hi John, I think we can do better than this: "Other features, such as a garden maze, were a feature of ...". Equally, starting two sentences in three with "Though". And that hideous ly-. But next time I won't bother, so we're all winners! Regards, Ericoides (talk) 21:48, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

this edit summay not only does not assume good faith, it flies in the face of our remit as editors to edit articles even while WP:AfD is going on. We are not required to keep shitty content in articles just because there is a deletion discussion. Your revert back to a version that included a WP:CREDENTIAL and at least five different unvetted claims is, I would argue, making Wikipedia worse. By all means, improve the article if you can. But that was not an improvement. jps (talk) 13:48, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
Hi Johnbod,
I'm sure you have a lot on your plate, but if you're interested in taking a look, I’ve been working on drafting a MOS:ERA RfC question in my sandbox. Please feel free to edit and/or comment if you have the inclination. For any page watchers here, this with regard to a recent discussion over at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style. Much appreciated, Generalrelative (talk) 19:04, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
Ten years ago, you were found precious. That's what you are, always. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:02, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
You’ve said on the MOS Rfc: Option 1 MOS:RETAIN, though I'm not wholly against Option 1…..
I think it is a reasonable guess that you meant: Option 1 MOS:RETAIN, though I'm not wholly against Option 2…..
If my guess is wrong, please enlighten me as to what you mean by saying that you support Option 1, and are not wholly against it. Sweet6970 (talk) 20:16, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

I'm a bit confused by your edit at Jonathan Jones (journalist). I made a series of edits, mostly adding reliable sources, but alos removing one piece of obvious SYN. Then Philafrenzy undid my edits and some previous edits by several other editors (mostly SYN and trivia), supposedly based on my alleged conflict of interest. Given that I am not that Jonathan Jones (but am, as I declare on my user page, Jonathan A. Jones) I'm confused about this supposed COI (are all people called Jonathan Jones supposed to form some sort of cabal?) I undid this revert. And then you undid this again. Can I ask why?

See which IMHO is a bad edit, and the existing text "Although Basque-like Neolithic farmers did populate Britain (and all of Northern Europe) during the Neolithic period" is wrong, isn't it? Then there's this. Bell beakerman left a number of problems behind I think. Thanks. If you're too busy or not interested just tell me. Doug Weller talk 09:31, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
Hello. I'm wondering if you could give me some advice. I recently uploaded a rewrite of tomb of Tutankhamun and created a new article on the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. I'm thinking about sending the article on the discovery to FAC, but one of the major aspects of the topic is a political dispute between the excavators and the Egyptian government in 1923 and 1924. Though I didn't participate in the discussions, I remember the blowup at FAC in 2018 over the articles on Black Friday (1910) and the Bengal famine of 1943. I expect you do, too. One of the major focuses of criticism in those cases was the practice of rewriting articles and then sending them to FAC as virtual faits accompli—a criticism that made me uncomfortable, because writing a new article or rewritten version offline, and then uploading it in one go, is how my writing process has always worked. It doesn't escape my attention that both the contentious FACs were related to controversies about the actions of the British government in the early 20th century, and while the dispute in the Tut discovery isn't really about the actions of the British government, it is definitely about British colonialism.
So although I did upload the discovery article in a lump, I'm sending it to peer review and will wait at least three months after uploading before sending it to FAC. I'm looking to notify people about it so the PR receives the input it needs, but I'm not sure where to look. Please note that I'm not asking you to participate in the PR (although you're more than welcome to do so if you like), but simply asking if there are any particular editors or wikiprojects I should be notifying.

It's not quite as herculean as your turning a redirect into an incredible article, but I didn't lose my will to live with my efforts on the Core Contest.

Hi John, you may like this one, especially the last sentence! All the best, Edelseider (talk) 18:34, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi. You are right about the argument for the edit, because it is not really proven. But I did not write it in the article. So I didn't get, what you mean by "worse", since the argument of 'not proven' runs both ways. Then less might be more. - Maybe you didn't see it, I also changed "ancient lost" to lost ancient. I hope the logic is obvious. MenkinAlRire 16:19, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
Please note that there are a number of issues with what you wrote on the David Vases. Firstly the reference does not give the page number so it is difficult to check the validity of the assertion, secondly the claim that the date given is based on a 60 year Chinese calendar cycle appears to be incorrect - I have given the translation, and the date given is the reign era date (i.e. between 1341 and 1370), the 11th year of that era which would be 1351. Given its inaccuracy and I cannot check the source to see why the claim is made, I would delete it if no further sources are given. Hzh (talk) 17:23, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Did I misunderstand you in this edit? Was there a spelling change involved, or just the case styling that I restored pending the outcome of the discussion? Dicklyon (talk) 06:43, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
J, I keep trying to improve the article, toward both status quo ante and what's suggested by MOS:CAPS, while being responsive to details you pointed out that I got wrong, but you just keep reverting to the recently aggressively over-capitalized version, even while discussion is ongoing. That's not productive, and may land you in hot water. Dicklyon (talk) 19:10, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

I see you reverted my edit on Yoruba art. However, the RfC so far clearly favours including "sub-Saharan Africa" (6 votes to 1). And User:MassiveEartha's recent edit removed that term, per their argument in the "discussion" section of the RfC. How is there a consensus for that change given the votes in the "survey" section?

Hi, you understand large chunks (most?) of this article were written by User:Maestro2016, sockpuppet of User:Jagged_85, yes? Can you confirm to me that you are verifying references before restoring referenced text? I spent quite a lot of time verifying "Asher & Talbot 2008, pp. 50–52", and that reference was doing a lot of work, a lot of it quite dubious. If you can replace with better references then please do. Thanks. Merlinme (talk) 22:51, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
But this is what is so insidious about Jagged85 edits. Some of it will look plausible. All of it will look referenced. But if you check the references you will find that they do not support what he wrote. Basically the normal modus operandi was to write down a bunch of stuff he half remembered, slanted towards the viewpoint he preferred, and then attribute it to a hard to check reference which simply doesn't support it. Unless you have personally checked th reference, or can rewrite with better references, it should not be allowed to stand. Merlinme (talk) 06:19, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
