Hi, because of lack of time, i was not able to complete the article yesterday, thank you very much for taking the time to explain me how to use the Harv style and for completing (and correcting my mistakes) my edits at Medo-Babylonian conquest of the Assyrian Empire.

A cup of coffee for you!

I see that you check recent edits for appropriateness. I clicked through to see a set of the reversions that you had made for rejected submissions, and I agreed with all of what I saw you had done. It seemed apparent to me through the decisions you made and the comments that you left that you were giving human attention to the decisions you made rather than over-relying on tools and automation. Thanks for that, and thanks especially for the notes you leave. You are doing good review. Blue Rasberry (talk) 01:39, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Another barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
For answering a lot of edit requests and helping to keep the backlog at bay. For a while, I was taking care of that on my own, and it feels nice to see someone else get to it first every now and then! Actualcpscm (talk) 17:22, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Actualcpscm: thank you very much for the encouragement and for tackling those time consuming edit requests that tend to be pushed to the back of the queue. Keep up the great work! Best, M.Bitton (talk) 22:39, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, on a related note, I would love to do some more map work once I have more time in late summer. Do you have any good guides on how to get started on maps for Wikipedia? :) KluskaSlaska (talk) 16:21, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@KluskaSlaska: Thank you so much for your feedback. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any good guides that would help you. Best, M.Bitton (talk) 14:02, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Barbary slave trade

Due to unrelated drama I won't bore you with, I found myself looking at the history of this article, and uuh, thanks. A whole lot of POV-pushing was going on. When I have fewer tabs open I will try to remember to come back and give you a barnstar.

about reverting edit

Hi I hope you’re doing well. I noticed that the photo I added for the Royal Mausoleum of Mauretania was reverted with (not improvement comment) , and I’m a bit confused about why. The picture I uploaded is well-framed, complete, and clearly represents the monument without any major obstructions.the one currently used is partially hidden by a tree, which doesn’t highlight the monument as effectively. Also, it’s worth mentioning that this photo was one of the Top 10 winners in the 2020 Wiki Loves Monuments Algeria competition, so I believe it meets high standards in terms of quality and representation. Could you explain what was considered a “negative performance” in this awesome photo? I’d really appreciate your feedback so I can better understand the decision and contribute more effectively in the future. Dezedien (talk) 17:46, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see it as an improvement (it's too dark), but you're welcome to start a discussion about it and see what the others think. M.Bitton (talk) 19:24, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sudan (region)

Hi

Do you have a source that Alawi Sultanate have ruled Sudan (region) in present-day Mali? Because an user have added a sourced info that Sudan was ruled by a pasha. Panam2014 (talk) 12:49, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the editor is confused. Which edit are you referring to (I can't see it)? M.Bitton (talk) 17:03, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
