Barnstars will be awarded based on the number, length, and age of nominations reviewed. Each article review will earn 1 point; for each 90 days an article has been in the backlog, an additional half-point is awarded; one extra point will be awarded for every 2500 total reviewed words. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.
If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page.

Why did you remove from the Grammy voting member Nikki Hornsby’s page factual data about the gift of her NARAS status from membership 2006 to the voting membership for over ten years? Factual data proof online many places of the document on the office wall of cjp-nhrecords.com and websites online. 2600:8801:8606:350:8DD3:6AC6:D343:6FD8 (talk) 07:37, 4 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hello again, IP. This has been discussed pretty extensively on the article talk page in the past, but here's a summary: Most editors do not feel as if being a voting member for a professional organization is notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia article. Even if it were – and this is the most important part – its inclusion would have to be verified by a reliable, secondary source. The only sourcing you or anyone else has been able to provide for that claim is self-published. And that's not terribly surprising, because if it were a notable piece of information, it would have been written about and we could include it. But it isn't, so it hasn't, so we don't.

I'm sorry if that seems blunt, but you're exhibiting WP:IDHT behavior in response to multiple editors telling you that all additions to biographies of living persons have to be reliably sourced. The article as it is currently written is not in bad shape, and including one random bit of trivia is not going to improve it. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 14:23, 4 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I was wondering why you removed a phrase from the Grenadian French Creole article here [1], Wikipedia isn’t censored and if it is a phrase used then it should be kept, it should be kept for its language content regardless of whether the sentence is a weird one. The Grenadian Historian (Aka. Mwen Sé Kéyòl Translator-a) (talk) 20:08, 1 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello, thanks for reaching out. I understand that Wikipedia is not censored, but the principle of least astonishment is also important to keep in mind. That article contains over 50 example phrases, which is arguably too many to begin with (the purpose of an encyclopedia article about a language is not to teach the language), and one describing how to call someone a "whore" is not helping the reader and is frankly jarring in an encyclopedic context. I hope that helps explain why I removed it. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 20:18, 1 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I completely understand that reasoning and I support the change, these creole phrases can be jarring and/or humorous in circumstances, I’ve encountered many such phrases. Thanks for the edit and swift reply and have a great rest of your day. The Grenadian Historian (Aka. Mwen Sé Kéyòl Translator-a) (talk) 20:24, 1 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I must say I did chuckle when I saw it. Thanks for understanding, though, and I hope you have a good day as well. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 20:27, 1 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Just stopping by to say thank you for taking time out of your day to leave that comment at the ANI. It's such a relief to see someone in that thread actually acknowledge my concern around how the requests were handled. Wishing you well in your future editing ~2026-32492-01 (talk) 21:43, 3 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for reaching out, ~2026-32492-01, and you're welcome. I appreciate the effort you've put into refactoring "incorrect" requests, and encourage you to keep it up if it's something you're interested in continuing - lord knows plenty of help is needed in that area. As I mentioned in the ANI thread I do think there's some valid criticism of your approach that I hope you take to heart, but I feel confident you can. FWIW, creating an account would likely mitigate at least some of the anti-TA knee-jerk bias that editors can sometimes have in these situations, but obviously that's up to you. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 21:58, 3 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Yo, just wanted to ask for your feedback on this reply I gave to another TA's edit request if that's okay with you (not asking you to implement the request yourself)

Special:Diff/1362722284 ~2026-32492-01 (talk) 20:35, 5 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

That's exactly the kind of assistance the edit request queues need (the protected queues, anyway - I personally don't feel as much of a need to hold the hands of COI editors). I'm away from my computer and hate editing on mobile or else I'd implement it, but at least you've made it a lot more likely that someone will actually answer it sooner or later. If it's still there when I'm back from vacation I'll take care of it. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 13:50, 6 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
