User talk:Clyde H. Mapping

Welcome!

Hello, Clyde H. Mapping, and welcome to Wikipedia! This is one of the most popular websites in the world, and it's only through the contributions of editors like you. And Wikipedia is not just a collection of articles, it's an active community. The real fun here is contributing to Wikipedia, but don't feel hurt if some of your first few edits get removed, as there are some central guidelines you may not be familiar with.

Some good advice: be bold in your editing, and use the talk pages to discuss with other editors. Be kind to others, because there's a lot you can learn from them, and there's lots they can help you with.

There's lots of resources to help you become a great editor, from our basic introduction to our in-depth manual. But if you have any questions or problems, no matter what they are, leave me a message on my talk page or place {{helpme}} on this page to get any help you need. If you haven't done so, tell us a bit about yourself. Oh, and please sign your name on talk pages and votes by typing ~~~~; our software automatically converts it to your username and the date.

Glad you're here! Indefensible (talk) 02:50, 3 January 2022 (UTC)

Editor on Robert Brinsmead

I was about to warn the IP editor that was working on making non-helpful edits on Robert Brinsmead. I think we may have wanted to issue a second, third, or 4th and final warning based on previous warning of March 2023 dating as well. ComplexApe (talk) 01:30, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

The auto-select feature on Twinkle decided to place a level 1 warning for some reason, so you may issue a more severe one if it is warranted (given how the user in question was already warned earlier in the month for disruptive editing). Clyde H. Mapping (talk) 01:37, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

I do all my warnings manually until I can get Twinkle. Makes sense though. Thank you for responding with that information. ComplexApe (talk) 01:41, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Perfect. You did that next one wonderfully. Thank you for that. ComplexApe (talk) 02:17, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Clyde H. Mapping. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 10:28, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Jean Pierre Bemba Nationality

Hi, you edited the Jean Pierre Bemba article to describe the subject as simply "Congolese", and cited WP:MOSWikipedia:Manual of Style/Biography. In fact, Congolese is not of itself a nationality - the Republic of Congo is next to to the DRC - and of course it is relevant as per WP:MOS to mention the subject's nationality as he is a politician there. I've reverted. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 08:54, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Several articles on politicians from the DRC use "Congolese" in reference to nationality despite it being applicable to the RotC as well and vice versa, hence I thought its omission here to be curious. Perhaps wikilinking to the respective country in its mention would help to resolve the confusion, should it really be that significant to otherwise promote rephrasing. The DRC's constitution and nationality law makes mention of "Congolese" as the nationality, so its inclusion is not inappropriate on its own: the only reason I could see warranting its avoidance is that designation being one shared among two states.

you are incorrect

fix the article regarding the dodge dart model 330 because you are a d-bag that allows false information....you dumb a$$es will never see me donate because of a-holes like you...no such thing as a c body dart the dart after 61 was a b body midsize then in 63 became a compact, the engine sizes are wrong it doesn't include the 318 performance, if you like being wrong be wrong but if you can't accept being wrong and just delete sh!t then you are a farking g00f as well. 2604:3D08:627E:4F00:C938:DB80:B585:DA30 (talk) 07:26, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
