DYK for Fiat 130 HP

On 27 April 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Fiat 130 HP, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the 1907 Fiat 130 HP racer had wooden wheels? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fiat 130 HP. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

A beer for you!

I'm just now seeing all of the fallout of the sockpuppet activity on Universe Sandbox ². Great to know you had it under control! Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:25, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You couldn't even put a bet on that!

At 20:15 on 30 October 2015 you completed an edit on Peppa Pig. A minute later, on the same day, you edited John Wayne. Just how does your mind work? Cassianto^Talk 09:30, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are some who would claim it doesn't :-) it was probably me just monitoring my watch list, which is an eclectic mess... Scr★pIron^IV 14:10, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Estate values on pages of Old Hollywood stars

I have not added Richard Burton's estate figures back to his page yet. However, I added it in originally due to the fact this sort of detail appears in the following:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tallulah_Bankhead#Retirement_and_death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_Lamarr#Later_years https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marlene_Dietrich#Estate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judy_Garland#Death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincente_Minnelli#Death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greta_Garbo#Death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Dressler#Death

On the basis of this particular detail appearing in so many articles and being considered relevant information, I think reverting the details on Richard Burtons page is incorrect. Thoughts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charlieh 55 (talk • contribs) 04:19, 23 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. If you see this information on other pages, such cruft should be removed. It is not justification for including it in new articles, or adding it to existing ones. Scr★pIron^IV 12:54, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

College Football, Ice Hockey, and Hurling/Gaelic football for Fenway Park - DylanFaraci98

I am providing the link for each team/event in the table. And 85-90% of the time it shows exactly what is shown in the table. It kind of pisses me off because this is the second time this has happened.

In addition to linking, you must supply a reliable source that specifies that these games were held in this location. Unsourced additions have been challenged, and are not to be restored without a citation to a reliable source. Scr★pIron^IV 12:43, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you removing my content? Mjbmaster (talk) 06:31, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is that you keep adding peacock terms like "upscale", "popular" and "affluent" without citing any sources. Such editorializing and puffery is not within Wikipedia's standards of neutral writing. Scr★pIron^IV 12:34, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me, ScrapIronIV, why didn't you want to answer my last question and did you removed the discussion instead? I just asked you "What about my sources?". I think it was a legitimate question, at least give me an explanation, please. Thank you in advance. Mosidan (talk) 18:34, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise for continuing disturbing you, I promise I'll leave you alone immediately when you answer this last question of mine. You said that "the IP provided a source", but I've brought you an even more authoritative source (and it's an English source for English wiki, the Merriam-Webster's Geographical Dictionary to be precise) proving he's wrong. Why are you ignoring my source and considering only his reliable? Just answer this question, please, let me understand, so I won't have any further reason to disturb you again. Thanks.

-== A significant revert performed under vague reasonings ==
-Hello. I recently noticed you've reverted changes made to the [[:Human cannibalism]] on 15:22, 23 August 2018. This update doesn't look quite reasonable since it did eliminate some of the article's detailed content structures and additional facts. Please refrain yourself from making redos or reverts that are not issued under the concrete reason. --[[User:Efgus|Efgus]] ([[User talk:Efgus|talk]]) 07:17, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
