Changes on Cuauhtémoc–Brooklyn Bridge collision

[edit]

Hi

I noticed your changes on the page, thought I should point out that it would probably be better to have them in the XX:XX format with a "[sic]" than change those times into years --- which is why I wrote them as times. Having them as 2020 and 2022, is going to be confusing for people, as that is the normal way for years to be written rather than times of the day. I cannot think of anyhwere else I have seen them in that format. Also, bear in mind that "Consider paraphrasing quotations into plain and concise text when appropriate" is also written there.

You can paraphrase or you can quote, not both at the same time. The source uses military time. If you're worried about the quote being confusing, then link(s) to military time should solve that. Or add something helpful in square brackets to make clear it is not part of the quote. Or a footnote.
Any further discussion of this should take place at talk:Cuauhtémoc–Brooklyn Bridge collision. User space is not the appropriate place for discussing article content. Let the others play, too. ;) Paradoctor (talk) 14:41, 15 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I simply converted military to plain 24hr format by adding the colon. If you do not wish to discuss your edits on your talk page, which is to "discuss the edits of a user" WP:OWNTALK, fine, but it is not a requisite to discuss edits to a page on said page's talk page. Never fear, I will not bother you again. Chaosdruid (talk) 00:03, 16 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Editor experience invitation

[edit]

Hi Paradoctor. I'm looking for experienced editors to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 17:30, 20 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your signature is so cool...

[edit]

Hello, Paradoctor!! Your signature... is SO COOL. I've been seeing you around lately and I just can't take my eyes off it. It's so simple, yet creative, yet unique, yet mesmerising!! Would it be okay with you if I took a bit of inspiration from it, and maybe gave my own a bit of a slant? My signature at the moment is a little lame... I'll even credit you if you like!

Happy you like it. Feel free to rip off what I got, no attribution required. This is how my army grows. ;) Paradoctor (talk) 19:21, 2 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is amazing! I really feel drunk and myopic! This is sure to rock my world. Thank you! Drunk Experiter (she/her) (talk) 20:47, 2 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
