Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Big Brother 26 (American season), is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Aditionally, please do not delete comments in your talk page as they can be restored easily. Thank you.

Jesus H. Christ, do not go around issuing warning templates if you have NO FUCKING CLUE what you’re doing. The Big Brother article is not a discussion page, so this “warning”, like most of your edits, makes zero sense. The re-write that I reinstated at least didn’t sound like it was written by a mediocre fourth-grader with a tenuous grasp of the English language. And I know someone like you with a proven history of edit warring and sockpuppetry isn’t accusing me or anyone else of bad form. 😒😒😒 Bgsu98 (Talk) 22:51, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240817225100","author":"Bgsu98","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bgsu98-20240817225100-Jd101991-20240817223500","replies":[]}}-->

The references are not formatted or listed well as per other Wikipedia pages (see Yuzuru Hanyu for good example of ref format). It also provides social media which are not reliable and independent, so I was wondering if there are more reputable sources. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A.

Honestly, it looks like the reference section of every other figure skating article I've ever encountered, so I'm not sure what about it looks off to you. As for social media, while it's not ideal, it's also not verboten depending on the circumstance. However, the link you cited (WP:LINKSTOAVOID) does not address the use of social media as a source, but instead instructs us to not link directly to social media in the article (for example, a link to someone's Instagram profile in the External links section of their article).

Having also been on the receiving end of a death threat on WP (I mean, come on...), I know how unpleasant it can be, but I also knew an administrator would quickly take care of it. Should there be a similar occurrence in the future, please do not hesitate to contact WP Trust & Safety via e-mail so as to avoid publicizing something like that on a high-profile forum.

Thanks for your contributions to ISU Junior Grand Prix in Switzerland. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back.

Hello. A) It wasn't disruptive. B) Just mentioning WP:DE in the edit summary without explaining why is not good enough.

Wikipedia prefers secondary sources, which ISU results are not and SS results are. Additionally, why on earth would you revert to a previous format which requires additional effort to maintain? If five columns call for the text to be centered and two call for the text to be left-justified, then you set the table default to center and manually set the other two cells to left.

I will try to update those when I have a chance. Thank you for your effort in keeping these skaters' articles updated. The only thing I would ask is that you use the new style tables that we developed a while back. The older style tables do not meet Wikipedia's MOS requirements and will have to eventually be replaced. Adding old-style tables now just increases the workload.
