Hi. This is Hilary Wolpert Silver I see you last edited the Wikipedia page on Predicasts. I was so happy to see it there! I tried to get it created, but it didn't work since I didn't know how to show I had the rights to quote sources. Do you want to add sources, such as the Online magazine article about Predicasts and my dad or the book he and my sister-in-law wrote, The Economics of Information? I couldn't get the rights to the book. The publisher was bought out but the acquiring publisher didn't acquire the rights to the book, which wasn't well-written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by H w silver (talk • contribs) 13:30, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Ellen Walker Craig-Jones, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 00:40, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please can you stop adding orphan tags to disambiguation pages? Wikipedia:Orphan#On disambiguation pages says that dab pages shouldn't be tagged with orphan, as they shouldn't have links to them- pages shouldn't be linking to dab pages, so therefore almost every single dab page will be an orphan. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:09, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Michaelwallace22, I actually came to your talk page to say something similar to what Joseph2302 wrote above - the same goes for set index articles (i.e. surname articles). Thank you! Jmertel23 (talk) 20:01, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that Jmertel23! I thought that since I had historically seen list articles labeled for orphan tags that the same would apply to set index and surname articles. Reading back over it now though, I see it and appreciate you letting me know! Won't happen again.

Thanks for your add "Dengue fever outbreaks" on my article. Mithila Madawa Gunathilake (talk) 15:45, 25 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Hurricane Seymour, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:07, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I had removed the Seymour name from the storm index tag because it appeared to not be doing anything - should these names be left in place even if that is so?

Yes, these names should remain on the set index tag, and are placed there so the entry is able to be listed in alphabetical order at Category:Set indices on storms. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:15, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Michaelwallace22, I just saw this edit of yours. I reverted it, because intentional links to disambiguation pages (such as Controller) by convention always link to a redirect ending in (disambiguation). How and why is explained at WP:INTDAB. Don't worry, even the most experienced editors often don't know this! Lennart97 (talk) 08:27, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Michaelwallace22, good job spotting Australian tiger and Australian tigers. The merge is such an obvious one, given that the pages are identical, that I wp:boldly merged them. Leschnei (talk) 12:11, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi and thank you for your edits to dab pages. Just a few notes: there's no need to add {{long comment}} as dab pages are already excluded from the short pages report, and there's a bot that removes any such instances of the template. Also, the first line of a dab page typically starts with something like "X may refer to:", and that works most of the time, but it may not always be appropriate if what follows is something other than a list of topics in the usual format. At Chankiri, for example, the term doesn't refer to a name or an alternative spelling, it is that name and it is that spelling. – Uanfala (talk) 15:29, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• re [1]. I don't understand. What am I missing? — Ched (talk) 19:44, 30 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Since this page wasn't a disambiguation page, I removed the disambiguation project tag. Let me know if this was in error.

you're saying that 1957 in NASCAR is not a disambiguation page? What do you consider it to be then? — Ched (talk) 01:18, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[2] - i would consider to be a list/set index article similar to those described here, and i should have replaced the disambiguation project with a list project tag, since the three topics listed in the article are related (and i can't foresee a unrelated element being added).

Hmmm .. well, that's an answer to consider. I can understand your thinking now at least. Not sure I completely agree, but I'll think on it. I'll run it by a few folks, and bring it up to the NASCAR group. Depending on the year, I can foresee other items. Along with the multitude of series in NASCAR over the years (which would be related as you say), there may also be things such as how safety changed that year, or how various manufacturer changes affected the season. Do you want to be pinged to such discussions? And I do appreciate you responding the way you have without being defensive or rude. Pleasure to meet you by the way. — Ched (talk) 06:36, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, but the way, I see you've started using the edit summary feature. That will help avoid misunderstandings in the future I think. Cheers. — Ched (talk) 06:44, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't do [3] a couple hours after anonymous vandalism, it makes it that much harder to roll back. TIA. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 14:13, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Michael - I'm concerned that you are going around and just making edits simply for the sake of making edits. Adding a period here, and removing a legitimate bad template there aren't bad things in and by themselves. But I'm seeing a lot "caution" and "please don't" type posts here on your talk. Please think about what you're doing, and why you're doing it. I'd like to see you go back and revert a lot of your DAB removals, especially the ones where you don't add a corresponding SIA tag. I'd also mention that DAB pages can be multiple things, so there's no problem with a DAB page ALSO being say a part of {{WikiProject Anthroponymy}}. There's no need to remove one to add the other. .— Ched (talk) 01:07, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Michael, as several other people have already said here, I too am concerned that some of your edits don't appear to be constructive and seem to be made simply for the sake of making edits. Look for example at what you've done here: you replaced text that made perfect sense, with text that doesn't. In English, "football player and manager" makes perfect sense, whereas "footballer and manager" doesn't - the former means that a person is both a football player and a football manager, whereas the latter leaves the reader wondering what on Earth was meant. You've done a large amount of edits like that one.

Moreover, you now seem to have taken to making the same changes as anonymous IPs (68.234.129.36, 2601:CB:4001:4030:F02D:8FE6:AC75:DBF0). I'm sure you can appreciate that that is not a constructive way forward.

I do think that many of your contributions are useful - I'm just asking that when you make each edit please ask yourself whether the edit improves the article or not. Thank you. Dr. Vogel (talk) 14:27, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's time that your pattern of editing be reviewed by a wider audience. I have therefore started a thread at WP:AN that you may wish to contribute to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Michaelwallace22_editing_review. — Ched (talk) 23:36, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Sudbury Augustinian Priory requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

no evidence that an Augustinian priory existed in Sudbury (see Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities#Sudbury_Augustinian_Priory?)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

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.

Hello, Michaelwallace22. Please note for future reference that 'see also' sections on disambiguation and name pages are for entries that are phonetically similar as well as spelling alterations, nicknames, or full versions. For instance, a see also section on 'Britain (disambiguation)' may look like this:

• Brit (disambiguation)
• Britan (disambiguation)
• Britaine (disambiguation)
• Great Britain (disambiguation)

And not like this:

• Britai (disambiguation)
• Fritain (disambiguation)
• Ritain (disambiguation)

Adding entries like Benson to Renson or Danni to Dannin misuses the see also section on disambiguation pages and name lists. On dab/name pages, 'see also' is intended to list entries that are very closely similar to the page's name and can be confused with it or has some sort of relation with it. For instance, 'Rensen' or 'Dannon' make more sense to be added to Renson and Dannin rather than the previous two. Thanks. Waddles 🗩 🖉 19:16, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Waddles! Thanks for the tip - I'll make that change in the future. I had been thinking that potential misspellings would also be included (hence someone who accidentally types in Renson instead of Benson might want to navigate directly to Benson), but I see the difference now. Thanks! Michaelwallace22 (talk) 20:37, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Michaelwallace22!

• The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
• We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
• If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 21:28, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings Michaelwallace22, For article Alemseged Assefa today I successfully deorphaned. Here are the steps I follow for most Bio articles.

1. Check "Find link" - for this one, found Actor with same name, not banker.
2. Check "What links here" - Nothing
3. Did websearch (Startpage) & found Ethiopia article with this person.
4. Added sentence with cite for fact in article into the bio.
5. Added this person to "List of Ethiopians" with cite.
6. Removed the Alemseged Assefa article Orphan tag.

Thought to share these steps with you as they apply to most biographies, and to Orphan articles in general. Cheers, JoeNMLC (talk) 19:51, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for creating those redirects for recent Survivor players. I do have a question about some that already exist that you made. I think all previously exisiting contestant redirects go to List of Survivor (American TV series) contestants instead of their season page. Would you be opposed if I edited the ones you already made to redirect there instead of the season page. This is just for simplicity purposes, especially for players that have played multiple times.
