	Thank You
	I wanted to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia and also wish you a Happy New Year 2025. Recently, there hasn't been a single page I've created that you haven't improved. Thank you so much Harold Krabs (talk) 01:52, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, my friend. Can you please weigh in on this AFD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Karen_Friedman_Agnifilo . I'd be grateful PaulPachad (talk) 17:45, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Category:2025 British television seasons indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:37, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, a spam filter blocks reverting due to a now banned domain in a link somewhere. —Mainframe98 _talk 17:24, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mainframe98: Thank you for letting me know. I apologize for the issue. I have reverted the article, and replaced the banned domain with {{citation needed}} tags. I am also working to remove the referencing errors in the article. Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 19:09, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, this is ChillinVillain47. I would like to apologize for some edits I have made, but have a question for California Tortilla. You said I vandalized it even though I was researching the locations where the restaurant. I was struggling to see locations particularly in Kansas. Please reply to me via my talk page: talk

Hello! I noticed that you have been assigned as my mentor. It would be good to get feedback on my edits so far and any heads up. Thanks! --EditorialProject (talk) 15:07, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@EditorialProject: Hello there, and welcome to Wikipedia!

It's wonderful to see you using edit summaries and engaging in constructive conversation on article talk pages and user talk pages. However, there may not be enough watchers of talk pages of promotional articles to notice some of your posts. In those cases, you can WP:BOLD and make the appropriate changes.

I see that you've learned from your mistake with the Youth justice in England and Wales graciously.

I like that you're adding references when you add content to articles. However, the punctuation should appear BEFORE the footnote. (See Help:Footnotes)

Country names such as United States don't usually need to be wikilinked. (See MOS:OVERLINK)

I see that ClueBot automatically reverted your edit to the Greg Stainer article, and wonder if the bot did it because you added the {{Death date and age}} template for someone who's not dead yet. It's interesting that adding the template without actual dates does not display the template to the user.

Another bot mentioned on your talk page that you accidentally introduced referencing errors in the Victims' rights article. I've fixed them for you (and made small edits to the other pages you've edited).

Keep up the good work, and happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 19:17, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@GoingBatty Happy new year! Thank you ever so much for the excellent and constructive feedback. All noted. If you do not mind, if I am in doubt in the future I would like to leave my edits in draft format and consult with you before publishing. EditorialProject (talk) 21:44, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@EditorialProject: I'm here whenever you want to bounce something off me. Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 22:44, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

	The Editor's Barnstar
	Helly GoingBatty, I am awarding you this barnstar for your resilient work in making Wikipedia what it is today. Your editing approach dramatically inspires me. I say cheers to happier days. What do you say? Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 16:03, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cameremote: Thank you so much! Happy new year, and happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 16:38, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey GoingBatty, I requested the Pending Changes Reviewer on the page request form. Given my edits history, as a typically new wikipedian, do you think i will be given?? And is it a matter of age? given that im 18 years?

I have been trying my best to see how i can contribute to this environment. I know its not your expertise, im just asking for suggestions. I appreciate the response. Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 20:50, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cameremote: Hi there! I'm not an administrator, so I haven't been involved in reviewing Pending Changes requests. I don't know whether administrators will consider three months and 800+ edits as a "measurable track record of editing".

No one would know your age if you didn't bring it up. However, I'm a bit confused by your user page. How can you be 18 years old if you were born in 2002? Why did your user page say you were 19 years old back in November but 18 years old now? How could you have joined Wikipedia in 2007 if you were born in 2002?

Next time you're editing the {{Infobox user}} on your user page, you may want to correct the wikilinks in the |languages= parameter and the duplicate |userboxes= parameters.

Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 03:16, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your solid feedback. Concerning my infobox, I prefer to keep it ambiguous, hence, the conflict of interest.

However that does not challenge my ability to edit. And again, I might have to just stick to article creation, I noticed you keep reverting my edits, which is not good to my history. I appreciate you immensely. BTW, I thought you was a woman given your name😂Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 09:20, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cameremote: I think I only reverted a couple edits where you changed {{short description}} from "None" to something that I didn't think was beneficial. Someone else was reverting your big changes to EV Group today. I'll make a couple tweaks to it for you. GoingBatty (talk) 20:21, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate you immensely, you just don't know that your actions inspires me. I will be graduating from university next year, and I'm trying to clutch on Wikipedia. At least I have something to point at. Keep inspiring, my deliverables will be on fire> Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 20:45, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
