Hello, Tobby! Good morning! Or at least, I hope it's morning where you live! Anyway, the article Brazil is blocked due to a dispute over a content. I would like to know if you would be interested in giving your opinion to end it once and for all. In case you do not know much about the subject, I could explain it better to you. This is the link. All help is needed. Thank your very much and kind regards, --Lecen (talk) 11:38, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Lousiana: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Hi, thanks to add warnings on the vandal's Talk page whenever you revert, that normally helps to track the number of vandalous edits before ARV.

Thuggee is not a Human sacrifice, nor Sati is any Human sacrifice, sati was done by the women for escaping from the islamic invaders, who used to rape women. And Thuggee cult only loot people, steal, and then kill, it wouldn't sacrifice itself, stop reverting. Discuss, before reverting, if you have any reason.

The above statement is just plain POV rubbish; multiple sources refer to these as a form of 'human sacrifice.' User:Bladesmulti has also been blocked for sockpuppetry.50.111.58.135 (talk) 22:31, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Tobby72

As a Wikipedian interested in African subjects and specifically Uganda, we thought you might be interested in the following opportunity.

WikiAfrica is looking for a Wikipedian in Community from Uganda to play a pivotal role in its Kumusha Takes Wiki project. This might be a position that you would consider. Or it could be the perfect opportunity for someone you know from this country, please spread the word! For more details, please look at this page: http://www.wikiafrica.net/call_for_wir_en/

If you have any questions about the above, please contact isla on isla [at] wikiafrica [dot] net : Isla Haddow (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeanpauldelange (talk • contribs) 09:43, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I've noticed you are editing a few articles and making several new sections in talk pages regarding Nazis and Slavs. The reason a lot of your edits are being reverted is because they are already covered in the article or are not necessary to add into an article.

For example:

"The Nazis because of this declared Slavs to be untermenschen (subhumans)." is what is in the article but you wanted to edit "The Nazi ideology defined ethnic Poles as "sub-humans"." when Poles are Slavs and this is already mentioned in the article.

I do apologise for removing all of your edit regarding the role of sex and gender and have added it back in but tweaked it more accurately whilst using the source you did use.

This is nothing personal against you mate but we both are trying to achieve accurate reliable Wikipedia articles and overlapping stuff is not the way to go about it. If you want to discuss Nazis/Slavs discussion then we can on the relative talk pages. Once again, I have nothing against you. :)!--Windows66 (talk) 12:07, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Believe me, I've searched all Internet to find some verification that this is an actual story from the 20th century (as main editor, I've been extremely restictive on adding 20th-21th century material), but I haven't found a single source of any "Captain Rosinsky". That's why I've previously deleted the image, but I won't get into an edit war with you, but I would be EXTREMELY grateful if you find an additional source which enhances the probability of it being real from being just, for example, a fake image, or a still photo from a movie. I know your edit is in good faith, but in contrast of MOST stories on Impalement, that of Captain Rosinsky has precious few additional verifications to it.Arildnordby (talk) 22:08, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To make my point specific: You are not the only editor wanting this image within Impalement, just the most recent. I have RESIGNED from deleting it, I'm not going to remove it, but YET, I will be grateful if you can find some independent evidence about it depicting a REAL event.Arildnordby (talk) 22:29, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I researched a bit and found this: [2] -- Tobby72 (talk) 23:01, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article 2020s in history is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Decades in history until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

I am giving you this notice after having seen this edit at Pierre Poilievre which is in regards to World War II in Ukraine, broadly construed. In addition to the standard CTOP notification above, I will also advise that the specific edit was in no means in compliance with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. It's pretty obvious that the attempt here was to downplay that Poilievre and the rest of the Conservative Party MPs were among those applauding the individual. If the edit hadn't been reverted already, I would have done so under those grounds. ―"Ghost of Dan Gurney" _(hihi) 21:45, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
