Re User talk:Merv Mat#What are you doing with DC and related pages?, this user also moved Westinghouse Electric Corporation to CBS Corporation (1886-2000)[1] without discussion or rational. It needs a revert. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 20:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fountains of Bryn Mawr I don't disagree. I don't have that much knowledge of the exact history of CBS in that era but I think moving back (to revert) the page moves would be fine and if you don't feel comfortable doing that, there's a spot in the technical move request page to request such moves: Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests#Requests to revert undiscussed moves, as I'm not sure I'll choose to spend my time figuring out this particular thing.

Thanks, filled out. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 21:08, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi mate, I noticed you put out three nominations for deletions on my articles on Sin Tae-song, Yu Kwang-jun, and Choe Ok-chol. Why?

I understand Choe Ok-chol's due to there not being much information on his page but so is the case for many North Korean footballers. Sin Tae-song and Yu Kwang-jun had enough sources in correspondence to the DPRK's secrecy and I did my best to dig up as much info I can find. Why were those two nominated for deletion? C18ver (talk) 05:16, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @C18ver, I only marked the pages as "reviewed" as a technical action so they would be removed from the WP:New pages patrol feed since they've been nominated at AFD so the community will review them now (see WP:NPPDEL to be specific).

I believe that Simione001 (talk) nominated those articles for deletion. I'd suggest perhaps reading Wikipedia:How to save an article nominated for deletion and then engaging on the AFDs. Skynxnex (talk) 05:26, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers mate, thanks for the clarification. Have a good day. C18ver (talk) 05:32, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just noticed you added my nomination of an AfD to a bunch of sorting lists - I don't really know how to edit Wikipedia that well and wouldn't have known how to do that, so that was a big help, thanks. JustAPoliticsNerd (talk) 04:01, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Skynxnex Are you an administrator on Wikipedia by any chance? Bzik2324 (talk) 23:39, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bzik2324 nope; just someone who's been around Wikipedia for a few years now. Skynxnex (talk) 23:45, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Skynxnex, this is to notify you about the move review at Wikipedia:Move review/Log/2024 June#Chair (officer). Please cast your vote there. PadFoot (talk) 11:09, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So I would like say, there are 2 articles that are the same name, and I would like to ask, why did you delete the message!? Now that one article can't be reached easily. Also what the heck does afaik mean!?Robloxguest3 (talk) 00:07, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Robloxguest3, afaik is As Far As I Know.

Looking again, apologies I hadn't realized the TLD article seems to be using one of using unicode cyrillic characters that look identical to Latin? So .pyc and .рус are different pages. I'll have to look at how we normally handle that when I'm back at a computer; but I still think it's unlikely we'll want a WP:Hatnote for that TLD at the language article. More likely redirect both .pycs to the PYC disambiguation page and disambiguate them. That may take discussion, perhaps. Skynxnex (talk) 00:22, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

okay thanks! I am working to get the name of the TLD article changed to .pyc (Internet TLD) to stop confusion. Again thanks for the suggestion! Robloxguest3 (talk) 00:35, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Skynxnex! What should I have done that you fixed? I realized after I'd AfD'd it that it really could simply be redirected. Valereee (talk) 18:50, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Valereee, Twinkle added the AFD nom you created to the daily listing page automatically in rev Special:Diff/1258977759 as a transclusion. But once you deleted the nom page it shows up as a red link to that page. So since there was nothing left to transclude I removed it. It's not uncommon to clean up the AFD daily pages for various reasons :). Skynxnex (talk) 18:53, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Valereee (talk) 18:54, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're very welcome! Skynxnex (talk) 20:06, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My edit in 26 February search is correct, Please accept this Imran2662 (talk) 11:16, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Imran2662, it may be that day is the birthday of a person named that. However, on pages such as that we require that all list entries also already have Wikipedia pages. Also the reference you provided is for an unrelated NFL player. Skynxnex (talk) 15:10, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
