Olan Montgomery

One of your editors, Diannaa, recently removed content from my recently deceased brother's wiki. She cited copyright material from my brother's own website. No one should remove content without first talking with the author of that content. Unless the page is restored to it's original content before Diannaa arbitrarily destroyed it, there is no need to include my brother on this platform - Mike Montgomery

Hello @Gumaraid:. I am not involved in this content dispute, I merely came along during and noticed a massive and unexplained removal of content, so I reverted it. I can see that you've already engaged with the other editor on their talk page, so I'll leave the two of you to resolving the matter. ~ | twsx | _cont | ~ 13:28, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Good faith revision

Hey, I'm just curious because I am new to Misplaced Pages. You reversed my contribution based on good faith, just wondering why, and what I can do to make it better as I am new to the process? Barrickinc (talk) 17:08, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Hello @Barrickinc: I have reverted your addition because it appears that the person you added to the article is not notable. People mentioned as notable within such an article should meet Misplaced Pages's guidelines on notability, and ideally, have their own article. ~ | twsx | _cont | ~ 17:31, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Hello

Hello @Twsx! I would like to know how do you add these weird status that says like this user fights vandalism and a photo beside it.

I will be very glad to know how

Oscar Wilde

Hello!

For some reason, I just saw a message from you that was sent on 25th November 2020 regarding changes to Oscar Wilde page. Yes, I use Misplaced Pages multiple times per day and read about all sorts of stuff, but rarely get an itch to actually change something. When I do, it's usually about sports related topics, like grammar mistakes or outdated facts (like player's tennis ranking that hasn't been updated in while). Preview is something I use every time, so I'm sure not to make a mess on a page. That said, I don't recall wisiting Oscar Wilde page or even making some changes. If I really did, I apologize. It's like I have a mild case of OCD, so sometimes I see things that seem to be in need of fixing and I can't help myself. For example, yesterday I tried to make a change at the page of former Russian boxer Evgeny Gradovich. His boxing record chart looked too narrow, because it collides with his personal data listed below his photo. I tried to move it a bit lower. That way everything would look better, and data would be clearer and easier to check. After trying for a few minutes, I realized I can't do it, so I let it be as it was. Maybe you can check it and give it a go. ~ 14:50, 17 February 2021.

Hello @89.201.185.112: / @89.201.185.141:. You can find the edit in question here. Some maintenance tags were removed / messed up – altogether looked like an accidental edit to me. As such, I had reverted it and left that message on your talk page. No harm done!
