You deleted links to other arenas & stadiums from the See also section of the above article per this edit, with the edit summary of "unrelated". However, those articles include similar links. Also, I would argue that sports arenas and stadiums are related, because they take massive effort to finance and build, not to mention that they generate significant revenue for the communities that they're located in. So, without invoking the ever-infamous WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS policy, can you provide another reaon why they should be deleted? Assadzadeh (talk) 21:01, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your contributions.
- This list is about Major League Baseball stadiums. It has nothing to do with hockey arenas, basketball arenas, football stadiums, or soccer stadiums. I don't see any realistic scenario where somebody seeking information on such topics ends up at List of current Major League Baseball stadiums. In a word: Unrelated. 162 etc. (talk) 16:24, 21 October 2025 (UTC)
- OK, thank you for the feedback. So, do you think these links should be deleted from the other articles as well? Assadzadeh (talk) 16:28, 21 October 2025 (UTC)
De-PROD of Draft:Cesium 137 (band)
[edit]Hello. Just letting you know that I have removed a PROD from Draft:Cesium 137 (band) because it is not an article or locally hosted file. In general, non-notable drafts can be left alone to be G13'd in 6 months. Otherwise, MfD is more appropriate for deleting drafts. Best regards, QwertyForest (talk) 16:19, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
- @QwertyForest: Not quite sure what happened here. The article was in mainspace when I PROD tagged it. Following that, it was moved to draftspace, de-PRODded, and then moved back to mainspace. See [Cesium 137 (band): Revision history - Wikipedia
- If your removal of the PROD tag was merely procedural, I urge you to restore it. Thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia. 162 etc. (talk) 20:23, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
- Hi. I just saw this message and I was similarly confused that it was moved back to mainspace. You are correct in that the de-PROD was procedural, and it seems you added it back. I can't see anything on the talkpage explaining the situation, but it looks like someone draftified the page without a summary, and someone else reverted it because the article was too old to be draftified. Someone left the draftifyer know.
- As this situation happened with another PROD I procedually removed, I'll fix that. Best regards, QwertyForest (talk) 11:11, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

[edit]Do not strike my comments; especially without consulting me beforehand. If I feel it is necessary to do so, I will do it myself. Emiya1980 (talk) 02:26, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
- @Emiya1980: Per WP:RMCOMMENT, "Nomination already implies that the nominator supports the name change, and nominators should refrain from repeating this recommendation on a separate bulleted line." The comment should therefore be struck or removed; or you could simply restore the edit that I made on your behalf.

Etiquette for use of the 'minor edit' tag and editing others' comments
[edit]I noticed you removed a '(vote)' from the beginning of a user's comment on Talk:The Gizmo . I appreciate your edit for improving readability and policy adherence, but please keep mindful that many people find it frustrating when other people edit their comments, as discussed in WP:TPO. It is not clear to me that your edit is actually allowed by the guideline, so please be cautious. The guideline suggests you may reach out directly to the editor in the hopes of sharing good practices they might not know about. Those discussions are also helpful for people trying to figure out how to respond to a potentially disruptive editor. WP:MINOR also states you should not mark an edit minor for changes that 'could be the subject of a dispute,' when it might be 'contentious.' I suggest your edit was a form of 'visible maintenance.' Addressing the user's mistake was reasonable - but that was not clearly an unintended error, typo, or other accident as needed for a minor edit. You always can call an edit 'minor' in the summary. --Edwin Herdman (talk) 06:15, 22 November 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for reaching out. Although I note that this particular procedural mistake (see WP:RMCOMMENT) is not specifically addressed at WP:TPO, I'd argue that my edit falls under the "Fixing format errors" umbrella. Most importantly, the guideline asks us to "Never edit (...) someone's comment to change its meaning", and this edit does not change the meaning of OP's contribution. Note also that I used the word "minor" in the edit summary, but the edit was not marked as minor. 162 etc. (talk) 18:12, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

[edit]
Your recent editing history at List of European stadiums by capacity shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing a page's content back to how you believe it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree with your changes. Please stop editing the page and use the talk page to work toward creating a version of the page that represents consensus among the editors involved. Wikipedia provides a page explaining how this is accomplished. If discussions reach an impasse, you can request help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution such as a third opinion. In some cases, you may wish to request page protection while a discussion to resolve the dispute is ongoing.
If you continue edit warring, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, or whether it involves the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also, please keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule— if things indicate that you intend to continue reverting content on the page.

[edit]What in the world are you doing, have you examined the history [1]? ~2025-31245-28 (talk) 18:08, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, I see I had read that wrong. The move has been made. Thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia. 162 etc. (talk) 18:11, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
Disruptive editing
[edit]
Please stop your disruptive editing.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. ~2025-38915-07 (talk) 18:14, 6 December 2025 (UTC)
- Please see WP:SOCKPUPPET and WP:VANDALISM. 162 etc. (talk) 21:12, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

[edit]Hey, is there any reason you posted this requested move? I know it was on behalf of someone else, but it is very clearly AI generated. Cheers – LuniZunie(talk) 04:30, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for reaching out. The requested move was originally posted to WT:Requested moves (see here).
- I moved it to WP:RM based on WP:AGF. I did not participate in the discussion and have no opinion when it comes to the contents or validity of the nomination. 162 etc. (talk) 17:12, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
- @162 etc. Appreciate it =) Wasn't warning you or anything, just wanted to see your rationale as this was definitely a first for me! – LuniZunie(talk) 17:13, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
Scarface (Push It to the Limit)
[edit]I genuinely don't think the article is salvageable. The only sources were fan wikis and a YTMND of all things, claiming "it was used in this" in direct violation of WP:TRIVIA. That left only a single, wholly unsourced paragraph. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:44, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
- This is an argument you can make at WP:AFD, yes. 162 etc. (talk) 19:45, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
- I filed a merger request instead. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:47, 20 December 2025 (UTC)

Wishing you and yours a fantastic Christmas (or holiday season for those who don’t celebrate) and all the best for 2026. 🎄 ❄️☃️ Here’s to a collaborative, constructive year ahead — with good faith, good edits, and just enough discussion to get things done!
