Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to Wikipedia:Advanced template coding does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.

- At Paned window you need to separate out those references to what they actually refer to, and not just glom them together. Also the edit pane you used to illustrate, is a poor example for several reasons: (1) As a reader of Wikipedia it might be confusing and seen as a part of Wikipedia and not seen as a "pane" at all. (2) it goes all across the text pane and does not look like a sample. See, e.g., how they did it here. (3) Is this what you mean by an edit pane? I get that as an integral part of my whole edit screen. And when I press preview I get my whole window replaced, not a panel or a box. --Bejnar (talk) 15:22, 31 May 2020
- 1 and 2 Put at your choice. It is a poor Wikipedia article and for sure can be improved. In any case, the place to see it is the talk page in the article. I am more experienced with templates. If you have more experience with image, can improve it.
- 3. You said: "The other usage is as a place were edits are made prior to being executed by the programme, much like the edit tab in Wikipedia, except as a "pane" that leaves the original open while editing takes place". In edit code, when I press in preview, I have a preview pane and an edit code pane. It is not a panel, as you say now. It is a pane. Read the references. I learned reading them.

Editing news 2020 #2 – Quick updates
[edit]Read this in another language • Subscription list
This edition of the Editing newsletter includes information the Wikipedia:Talk pages project, an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily. The central project page is on MediaWiki.org.
- Reply tool: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias). The Beta Feature will get new features soon. The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing
@. You can test the new features on the Beta Cluster. Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months. - New requirements for user signatures: Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in Special:Preferences. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable. Most editors will not be affected.
- New discussion tool: The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions. You can see the initial design on the project page.
- Research on the use of talk pages: The Editing team worked with the Wikimedia research team to study how talk pages help editors improve articles. We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

Editing news 2020 #3
[edit]
Seven years ago this week, the Editing team made the visual editor available by default to all logged-in editors using the desktop site at the English Wikipedia. Here's what happened since its introduction:
- The 50 millionth edit using the visual editor on desktop was made this year. More than 10 million edits have been made here at the English Wikipedia.
- More than 2 million new articles have been created in the visual editor. More than 600,000 of these new articles were created during 2019.
- Almost 5 million edits on the mobile site have been made with the visual editor. Most of these edits have been made since the Editing team started improving the mobile visual editor in 2018.
- The proportion of all edits made using the visual editor has been increasing every year.
- Editors have made more than 7 million edits in the 2017 wikitext editor, including starting 600,000 new articles in it. The 2017 wikitext editor is VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode. You can enable it in your preferences.
- On 17 November 2019, the first edit from outer space was made in the mobile visual editor.
- In 2019, 35% of the edits by newcomers, and half of their first edits, were made using the visual editor. This percentage has been increasing every year since the tool became available.

Reply tool
[edit]
The Reply tool has been available as a Beta Feature at the Arabic, Dutch, French and Hungarian Wikipedias since 31 March 2020. The first analysis showed positive results.
- More than 300 editors used the Reply tool at these four Wikipedias. They posted more than 7,400 replies during the study period.
- Of the people who posted a comment with the Reply tool, about 70% of them used the tool multiple times. About 60% of them used it on multiple days.
- Comments from Wikipedia editors are positive. One said, أعتقد أن الأداة تقدم فائدة ملحوظة؛ فهي تختصر الوقت لتقديم رد بدلًا من التنقل بالفأرة إلى وصلة تعديل القسم أو الصفحة، التي تكون بعيدة عن التعليق الأخير في الغالب، ويصل المساهم لصندوق التعديل بسرعة باستخدام الأداة. ("I think the tool has a significant impact; it saves time to reply while the classic way is to move with a mouse to the Edit link to edit the section or the page which is generally far away from the comment. And the user reaches to the edit box so quickly to use the Reply tool.")[1]
The Editing team released the Reply tool as a Beta Feature at eight other Wikipedias in early August. Those Wikipedias are in the Chinese, Czech, Georgian, Serbian, Sorani Kurdish, Swedish, Catalan, and Korean languages. If you would like to use the Reply tool at your wiki, please tell User talk:Whatamidoing (WMF).
The Reply tool is still in active development. Per request from the Dutch Wikipedia and other editors, you will be able to customize the edit summary. (The default edit summary is "Reply".) A "ping" feature is available in the Reply tool's visual editing mode. This feature searches for usernames. Per request from the Arabic Wikipedia, each wiki will be able to set its own preferred symbol for pinging editors. Per request from editors at the Japanese and Hungarian Wikipedias, each wiki can define a preferred signature prefix in the page MediaWiki:Discussiontools-signature-prefix. For example, some languages omit spaces before signatures. Other communities want to add a dash or a non-breaking space.
New requirements for user signatures
[edit]- The new requirements for custom user signatures began on 6 July 2020. If you try to create a custom signature that does not meet the requirements, you will get an error message.
- Existing custom signatures that do not meet the new requirements will be unaffected temporarily. Eventually, all custom signatures will need to meet the new requirements. You can check your signature and see lists of active editors whose custom signatures need to be corrected. Volunteers have been contacting editors who need to change their custom signatures. If you need to change your custom signature, then please read the help page.
Next: New discussion tool
[edit]Next, the team will be working on a tool for quickly and easily starting a new discussion section to a talk page. To follow the development of this new tool, please put the New Discussion Tool project page on your watchlist.

Your draft article, Draft:Back Market/es
[edit]
Hello, BoldLuis. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "es".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Reply tool
[edit]
The Reply tool is available at most other Wikipedias.
- The Reply tool has been deployed as an opt-out preference to all editors at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
- It is also available as a Beta Feature at almost all Wikipedias except for the English, Russian, and German-language Wikipedias. If it is not available at your wiki, you can request it by following these simple instructions.
Research notes:
- As of January 2021, more than 3,500 editors have used the Reply tool to post about 70,000 comments.
- There is preliminary data from the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedia on the Reply tool. Junior Contributors who use the Reply tool are more likely to publish the comments that they start writing than those who use full-page wikitext editing.[2]
- The Editing and Parsing teams have significantly reduced the number of edits that affect other parts of the page. About 0.3% of edits did this during the last month.[3] Some of the remaining changes are automatic corrections for Special:LintErrors.
A large A/B test will start soon.[4] This is part of the process to offer the Reply tool to everyone. During this test, half of all editors at 24 Wikipedias (not including the English Wikipedia) will have the Reply tool automatically enabled, and half will not. Editors at those Wikipeedias can still turn it on or off for their own accounts in Special:Preferences.
New discussion tool
[edit]
The new tool for starting new discussions (new sections) will join the Discussion tools in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures at the end of January. You can try the tool for yourself.[5] You can leave feedback in this thread or on the talk page.
Next: Notifications
[edit]
During Talk pages consultation 2019, editors said that it should be easier to know about new activity in conversations they are interested in. The Notifications project is just beginning. What would help you become aware of new comments? What's working with the current system? Which pages at your wiki should the team look at? Please post your advice at mw:Talk:Talk pages project/Notifications.

Please preview, consolidate, and summarize
[edit]Hello Luis, and thanks for your contributions. Below are a few editing suggestions to make it easier for you and others to collaborate on the encyclopedia. Please preview, consolidate, and summarize your edits:
- Try to consolidate your edits, at least at the section level, to avoid cluttering the page's edit history; this makes it easier for your fellow editors to understand your intentions, and makes it easier for those monitoring activity on the article.
- The show preview button (beside the "publish changes" button) is helpful for this; use it to view your changes incrementally before finally saving the page once you're satisfied with your edits.
- Please remember to explain each edit with an edit summary (box above the "publish changes" button).
Thanks in advance for considering these suggestions. Eric talk 15:27, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Earlier this year, the Editing team ran a large study of the Reply Tool. The main goal was to find out whether the Reply Tool helped newer editors communicate on wiki. The second goal was to see whether the comments that newer editors made using the tool needed to be reverted more frequently than comments newer editors made with the existing wikitext page editor.
The key results were:
- Newer editors who had automatic ("default on") access to the Reply tool were more likely to post a comment on a talk page.
- The comments that newer editors made with the Reply Tool were also less likely to be reverted than the comments that newer editors made with page editing.
These results give the Editing team confidence that the tool is helpful.
Looking ahead
The team is planning to make the Reply tool available to everyone as an opt-out preference in the coming months. This has already happened at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
The next step is to resolve a technical challenge. Then, they will deploy the Reply tool first to the Wikipedias that participated in the study. After that, they will deploy it, in stages, to the other Wikipedias and all WMF-hosted wikis.
You can turn on "Discussion Tools" in Beta Features now. After you get the Reply tool, you can change your preferences at any time in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Thanks. --BoldLuis (talk) 13:01, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
- I see that you made this edit [6] attempting to comply with MJLs comments above, but you've placed it in the section for others to ask questions of you once that phase of the election has started, so it is not transcluding into your candidate statement on the election page.
- This is rather awkward, as I am currently on the committee myself, but I feel it really needs to be said: My advice to you would be to seriously consider if you know exactly what it is you are doing in running in this election. Arbitrators are expected to have high levels of knowledge of Wikipedia policy as well as the internal culture of the project, so being a jurist is simply not relevant. The fact that you apparently were not aware of that gives the strong impression that you put your name forward without having much of an idea what you were actually nominating yourself for. I'm not saying these things to be cruel, I'm trying to help you avoid a colossal waste of your time and energy over the next month. Withdrawing your candidacy now is your best option. If you are still interested in running, you can spend some time over the next year getting to know what it is the committee actually does and how it operates, and try again later. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:31, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
- Since I see you have not been on English Wikipedia in some time, you are now receiving questions from users at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2022/Candidates/BoldLuis/Questions that could continue for the next two weeks. You will want to review that page regularly for new questions. Izno (talk) 17:52, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- I guess I was wrong, it wasn't a waste of your time, as you opted to ignore the entire process and therefore came in dead last with -465 votes. Other users took the time to ask you questions in order to judge your suitability for the position, and your apparent refusal to engage in any way whatsoever is an insult to them and to the community as a whole. Please be more considerate in the future, Beeblebrox (talk) 23:25, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

Editing news 2023 #1
[edit]Read this in another language • Subscription list for this newsletter
This newsletter includes two key updates about the Editing team's work:
- The Editing team will finish adding new features to the Talk pages project and deploy it.
- They are beginning a new project, Edit check.
Talk pages project
The Editing team is nearly finished with this first phase of the Talk pages project. Nearly all new features are available now in the Beta Feature for Discussion tools.
It will show information about how active a discussion is, such as the date of the most recent comment. There will soon be a new "Add topic" button. You will be able to turn them off at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion. Please tell them what you think.
An A/B test for Discussion tools on the mobile site has finished. Editors were more successful with Discussion tools. The Editing team is enabling these features for all editors on the mobile site.
New Project: Edit Check
The Editing team is beginning a project to help new editors of Wikipedia. It will help people identify some problems before they click "Publish changes". The first tool will encourage people to add references when they add new content. Please watch that page for more information. You can join a conference call on 3 March 2023 to learn more.

Managing a conflict of interest
[edit] Hello, BoldLuis. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Avalon Ventures, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. I'm surprised to see an article this promotional from an editor who has been editing for as long as you. signed, Rosguill talk 03:08, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for June 27
[edit]An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Nuance Communications, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Margin, Footer and Header.
(Opt-out instructions.) --DPL bot (talk) 06:01, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
Avalon Ventures moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Avalon Ventures, 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.

Edit summaries and being careful about article scope
[edit]Hey, saw your edits to Intensive agriculture but noticed that you didn't have any edit summaries -- this creates two challenges, first it wasn't clear what you were trying to achieve with the edits without the edit summaries. Second, those edits that you did make changed the scope of the article quite a bit -- agroextractivism is more related to industrial agriculture than to intensive agriculture, but probably should be an independent article itself -- and the differentiation of the concepts is limited within the articles themselves. I hope you keep editing agricultural topics -- its a knowledge gap on the wikis with very few editors Sadads (talk) 12:17, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rail bycicle carrier car
[edit]A tag has been placed on Rail bycicle carrier car requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a recently created redirect from an implausible typo or misnomer, or other unlikely search term.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". 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. ––– GMH Melbourne 05:16, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. DanCherek (talk) 22:54, 7 August 2024 (UTC)- I have added the source, that is United Nations and a link to it. Sorry, I thought UN material was similar to US and legislative material, but I have seen it is a private business.
On the other hand Emergency Volunteer Health Practitioners Act has been created including a criticism to Emergency Management Assistance Compact. Nothing is said about this in the EMAC wikipedia page. This can be dangerous if no measures are promoted for VHPA for disabled people in disasters and emergencies!!!!.
A permanent measure it is an unbalanced measure, before another ways, as a temporal one. No degree has been applied.

Decline reason:
You were blocked for copyright violations, but this doesn't address it. There are a couple ways you could do that: 1) showing that the content was not copy-pasted from the source; 2) showing that the source was public domain or otherwise compatible with our license; or 3) showing that you understand why copy-pasting content into Wikipedia is a problem when it's incompatible with our license. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:01, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- It wasn't only UN content may I remind you. Just take a look at your CCI request for all the different websites you copied from. I also took a look at your eswiki contributions and found some copyvios and some unattributed translations. If you want to get unblocked, you must show that you understand what copyright and our policies surrounding it. The4lines |||| (Talk) (Contributions) 15:20, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
