List of cultural references to the September 11 attacks[edit]
Thanks for fixing this. I reached out to Ckessler (talk) on my talk page but got no response. I would have fixed it myself but for the 3 revert rule. Cheers! Samf4u (talk) 21:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
Why you change the Tharuhat details?[edit]
Tharuhat is just concept of Tharu community who just want there autonomous statehood to exercise there cultural and political rights.This is only idea of that particular community Shishirjaisi (talk) 15:20, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Wikipedia cannot simply take one's word for anything. You need reliable sources to back you up. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:24, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
Sonia Chang-Diaz[edit]
As a new user with a COI, my edits to Sonia Chang-Diaz's pages were reversed, thank you for your help in understanding how to correct this. A couple questions.
First, her pages have not been updated since 2009 and she was an active state senator until 2022 and a candidate for governor, so substantial updates are in order. If I just use the visual editor in my talk sandbox to make the suggested edits, is it possible to get them reviewed from there?
Secondly, I do have a COI in that I'm a constituent and friend who has followed her career since 2009. If I use the visual editor in the sandbox, where do I post my COI information.
Thirdly, can I get a copy of my edits so far put in my sandbox.
Thanks for your help,

- Hello, and thanks for reaching out.
- Firstly, the proper place to suggest edits is at Talk:Sonia Chang-Díaz under template:Edit COI and a disinterested third party will provide feedback. Guidelines are available in that template link.
- Secondly, use your user page to declare your COI.
- Thirdly, your edits exist in the page history and can be copied from there. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 20:35, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
Simcha Jacobovici[edit]
Hi @Skywatcher68,
I am helping Naustin522 edit Simcha's page. I used to edit it when I was employed by Associated Producers. Now I'm doing it as a favour for her. I have uploaded my draft to User:APJohnM/sandbox/Simcha Jacobovici. I hope that is the right place. I tried to follow the instructions you sent her.
My edits include a lot of missing citations. I also added a new section "Charitable work" as well as a few new paragraphs. These also include citations.
I don't believe anything is controversial and I believe that everything I've added is under Wikipedia guidelines. Please let me know if you'd like me to change, fix or delete anything.
Thank you, APJohnM (talk) 01:49, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for reaching out. The proper place for this is at Talk:Simcha Jacobovici, under Template:edit COI; guidelines to use the template are on the linked page. This template places a link to the Talk page at the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard so any interested parties can stop by the Talk page and provide feedback. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 13:40, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
- Do I have to have every edit I make approved? Even if I'm just adding citations that are missing? Thank you.

- Something that minor should be okay to add without going through edit COI on the talk page. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:02, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- Depends on the nature of the source, though. –Skywatcher68 (talk) Skywatcher68 (talk) 15:08, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Just a question[edit]
Hi there,
You reverted my edit on Space Jam because I thought it was vandalism. However, I added 17 bytes to the page and you removed 15 bytes on the page. How does that work? Myrealnamm (💬talk · ✏️contribs) at 19:38, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi there!
- Those are the 15 bytes which were originally added in this edit; my revert rolled back past that vandalism. Happy editing! –Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:44, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
