An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Negeri Sembilan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zainal Abidin Ahmad.
Hi. Just so you know, edits such as this one are a waste of your time unless you absolutely can't stand to see double spacing on the editing view. Per MOS:DOUBLESPACE they are only rendered as single spaces in the reading view anyway. I have no problem if you want to carry on, but just thought I'd let you know - Dumelow (talk) 06:12, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I want to add the Afghan Sunni Muslim Surid Dynasty, you said there needs to be a dynasty page; for this topic there won't be one because the page itself is adequate, because the founder is the sole world famous ruler, Sher Shah Suri who introduced the currency used by 1/4 of the world today RevolutionaryPatriot (talk) 11:16, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the late reply. The basis for only dynasties with pages is based on one of the suggestions of the notibility section of Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists. I would argue that Sher Shah Suri introducing currency used by 1/4 of the world makes Sher Shah Suri but not his dynasty and that "needs a page" rule should be used to avoid bloating the page to just a list of monachal states ruled by Sunni Muslims.

Hiya. A thought for you - the signatories to the 1820 treaty were the coastal sheikhs, who at that time had no title or rule over the interior of their 'Emirates'. So the treaty was, in fact, with the cities (well, towns) of the coast... Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 04:49, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just following other Malaysian state... For example Kelantan capital is Kota Bharu but royal seat is Kubang Kerian but Kubang Kerian is still part of Kota Bharu not new district. Same also like Kedah capital is Alor Setar but royal seat is anak bukit. Anak Bukit also in part of Alor Setar not new district. Malayan Law (talk) 08:49, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just because it's that way in Kelantan doesn't make it so in other states, that is an assumption. The wikipedia page for Kuala Terengganu says that it is the royal capital, however that is unsourced. This page from Terengganu's government site [1] seems to indicate that Kuala Terengganu is the royal capital. If Bukit Chendering is the royal capital you would need to provide a source that says that. DervotNum4 (talk) 09:16, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It was written in a non-enclopedic tone and loyout what with the numbered points, also seems to be in the wrong place in the article. DervotNum4 (talk) 18:02, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@DervotNum4"Hey, l've been looking into this issue deep in down and recently discovered that the user @Al-Waqimi was
apparently blocked indefinitely. It seems this user edited the summary of the Bhatti[2] article and was immediately blocked by
Wiki procedural authorities. Could you please revert the changes they recently made?
That would be a great help initiation for me and viewers " and one thing more just make it sure he will return anytime soon, So i will definitely clerk his unwanted intrusion in future so thats its Mudsharkkiller (talk) 16:00, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. You're invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is over $3300 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning something to save you money in buying books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for subjects which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested. Even if you can only manage a few articles they would be very much appreciated and help make the content produced as diverse and broad as possible! ♦ Dr. Blofeld18:23, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There was no need for you to alter the sentence, in the Buzz Aldrin article, “The police declined to press charges against Aldrin, the deputy district attorney of the Beverly Hills office declaring that Sibrel had provoked him.” You rewrote the participial clause (participial phrase) ending that sentence as a second independent clause: “and the deputy district attorney of the Beverly Hills office declared that Sibrel had provoked him,” giving your reason as “Grammar, tense.”
But the prose was correct in formal English as written. It’s quite legitimate to attach a different subject to a participial clause when that subject differs from the one in the main clause, as in, say, “The game starting, she focused on the field,” or, “I relaxed with a drink, my work finished.” People seldom speak this way informally, but, in one fairly common usage today, someone will explain something and then add, “That said,…”
I’ve seen this kind of participial clause called a semiclause, but that seems to be an unusual name for it in formal grammar. Mucketymuck (talk) 05:58, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
With the phrasing "The police declined to press charges against Aldrin, the deputy district attorney of the Beverly Hills office declaring that Sibrel had provoked him." someone unfamiliar with the incident described could misinterpret the police not pressing charges and the district attorney declaring that Sibrel had provoked him to be seperate (which I did). To keep things clear I would argue the text should read something along the lines of "The police declined to press charges against Aldrin, as the deputy district attorney of the Beverly Hills office declared that Sibrel had provoked him."

Hello,
I'm writing to let you know that I've updated this climate table, because I've been able to find other sourced and reliable climate data and then update it to make it more detailed and Cartesian. Climater67 (talk) 19:39, 21 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I see you reverted a constructive edit by a sock on Mahayana. The entire note was removed by an IP, but the sock was just adding it back. Did you revert the revert because of some other reason or was it just because it was done by a sock? I've added the note back to the article if that's fine. Anpang (talk) 12:32, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It was entirely because they were a sock. I'm a firm believer that leaving sock edits up implicitly tells the sockmaster that they can get away with sockpuppetry as they can always just make a new sock, this especially matters with serial sockmasters such as with the one who I reverted here who over the years has made 175 different socks including suspected socks. However if anyone thinks there is value in the edits I revert they are free to revert me. DervotNum4 (talk) 14:29, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for opening that SPI. That's a new master to me, but I'll add him to my list so I can recognize him in the future. Meters (talk) 22:54, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, DervotNum4. I appreciate that you had a dispute with an IP editor about content at Chukai, but that does not justify starting an Rfc. I have removed the Rfc header, and encourage discussion about this at the Talk page. First of all, I understand that you have already discussed with the other editor at length about this, but there is no discussion at all at Talk:Chukai about it (apart from the decommissioned Rfc that was just initiated), thus no opportunity for other editors to even know there was a dispute going on. Discussions about article content should be held at the article Talk page, to facilitate multiple editors getting involved. Initiating an Rfc is a very expensive use of our most precious resource—editor time—as it runs for 31 days, and attracts responses from many editors. To justify that level of investment, you need a dispute that has been going on a long time, among many editors, with no clear consensus emerging. That is clearly not the case here. Please have a look at WP:RFCBEFORE and follow the recommendations there, before starting a new Rfc about this (or about any topic). Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 19:08, 6 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Coming back now after a couple of days I've come to think that the coffee shop was probably WP:Undue, so I'll just add that the talk page and see if anyone else who finds it has anything to say. DervotNum4 (talk) 01:45, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I really can't stress this enough, if you have a link to something you need to put the full link in the reference not just the website where the article you are referring too is hosted as you did on Club of Rome. If you just do that no one will find where you got your information. DervotNum4 (talk) 15:53, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've spent some hours looking for this now but most sources seem to only say "1998", as such I've so far been unable to find a specific date. DervotNum4 (talk) 20:06, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, I'm not sure how that would look like; it seems more logical to me to include them in the "Transitional period (2019–present)" section, on both lists, but of course – we can try and see how your preferred option would look like when implemented. — Sundostundmppria(talk / contribs)19:24, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I feel that putting them together in "Transitional period (2019–present)" would give undue weight to a government that is still internationally unrecognised. And to clarify what I meant by a new section was a new section (probably a sub-section) for a separate list from the main list, like you've got the current list then you have a sub-section break and you have the GPU leaders there.
