Removal of a reference in Network Time Protocol

You reverted a reference I added for Bitcoin being affected by fake NTP messages, stating it was a "promotional link disguised as a ref". I can assure you that I have no ties whatsoever to that blog from 2011. I just checked the blog again, and I fail to see any promotional links. Is there anything I'm missing? I ask so that I can learn to reference better in future edits. (I also think it's slightly unfair to me to claim that I disguised a promotional link as a reference—assume good faith!)

Eva

The edit you reverted to also includes a link to the name Eve. And Evita, for which there is a separate article. And it includes a reference to ‘Anglo Saxon’, which is completely the wrong term. In general the original edit you reverted to is very poor. Jmcaoat (talk) 16:13, 6 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete my flag from tacks beach

@Dawsonbolt247: Because Wikipedia is not for personal creations. I can appreciate that you want to commemorate this village, but this isn't the place for it. Mindmatrix 00:27, 27 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Unit formatting in the Toronto article

Hi, I noticed you reverted my edit changing “2 km (6,600 ft)” to “6,600 feet”. The Toronto article should use metric first with an imperial conversion, and you also spelled out “feet” rather than using “ft”. Per MOS:UNIT, the measurement should be "2 killometres (6,600 ft). I understand my original edit used “km” instead of “kilometres” Could you clarify why the metric value was removed?

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poe8toe (talkcontribs) 20:21, 3 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Poe8toe: What I reverted was the claim that the "grid of major city streets was laid out by a concession road system" with roads 2km apart. The grid system was established with concession roads 100 chains apart - that was the unit employed at the time. It works out to 6600 feet, which is just about 2km. It is wrong to say that the grid was created with roads 2km apart (that would be 6562 feet). You're more than welcome to find a different way to phrase it, but please don't introduce incorrect claims to the article. (Someone else has updated the statement in the article.)

You are invited to participate in the Destubathon of the Americas, a contest/editathon which will run from May 1 to May 31. The goal is to destub as many of our 475,000+ stubs for the Americas (from Alaska down to Chile) as possible. A good chance to have fun in expanding many of our old stale stubs and win up to £2000 ($2680) in Amazon vouchers for expanding stub articles. Sign up in the Contestants/participants section on the contest page if interested. Even if not interested in prizes you are still warmly welcome to participate in it as an editathon! Hopefully we can achieve something significant in the month of May together! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:18, 15 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
