Strettweg cult wagon
This move was wrong - it is a unique object with a proper name, not a style of artefact. I hope you don't do others like this. Johnbod (talk) 01:31, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
- It is no more a proper name than Gundestrup cauldron. PepperBeast (talk) 01:56, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
- It is a proper name, exactly like Gundestrup Cauldron. Johnbod (talk) 03:09, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
Spinach vs Popeye
Hi Pepperbeast—I'm a longtime animation scholar with the book credits to prove it, but I'm not here to brag... I'm just trying to establish my credentials.
I edited "Spinach in popular culture" today to correct the citation and source for Popeye's theme song (it's not just a catchphrase as indicated, has a different official spelling, an author, and a citable original source).
However, after I made the correction and added the citation via a new note, I found you undid my changes a few hours later, with the comment "Revert good-faith. Article has enough tangential trivia."
But it's not tangential trivia—I was trying to correct the spelling of the phrase and cite its origin and author. I was working on some unrelated E. C. Segar (Popeye creator) research for a new book, noticed the misspelling and lack of source and thought it should be clarified and added. Isn't more accuracy better?

- Yes, it's tangential trivia. Popeye is just barely relevant to the subject of spinach. The name of the composer of Popeye's theme song is a couple of degrees less relevant. PepperBeast (talk) 14:43, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello
You can explain me about your edits. And I can explain you too about my edits. We can cooperate to do more constructively. --Haoreima (talk) 02:14, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- Next, etymological explanation exists in many articles. Though not too much elaborate, we need some explanation, like word origin, etc. You will see about them more in academic articles. Because anyone from any parts of the world don't know what it means.
- You should not remove Template:Infobox Sanamahist term.
I need to explain more. You can retain these things.
- I think you are not well exposed to Meitei culture. You commit multiple spelling mistakes in Meitei names. Please take care that too. Because I can't recheck all of them, as those spelling mistakes are mostly found in the middle of the paragraphs.
- Sometimes you remove parts of names of "proper nouns" (Meitei names, might be because you forgot them).
- Please don't remove Meitei language reference websites. Because they contain more information which backs the information on the article, that the English language references missed. I always care for WP:REFBOMB. And in most of the cases, I don't violate this policy.
Btw, please don't think otherwise. I am telling you these all because of the purpose of the welfare of the Misplaced Pages and us. --Haoreima (talk) 02:30, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- The etymology is completely unnecessary here. It's three perfectly ordinary words, and I've used the Lang template to mark up the translation. I would argue that the vast majority of articles do *not* need etymology sections, and WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason to include something.
- The infobox is likewise superfluous. We have language templates. There's no need to roll your own.
- I'm absolutely happy, nay, delighted, to have Meiti spelling corrected. Likewise, the English grammar in some of what you've written is close to unintelligible. I hope you understand that I'm trying to make what you've written understandable.
- Otherwise, I'm mostly trying to cut down on WP:OVERLINK and replace duplicate references with named refs. Occasionally, I do encounter some ref bomb, and I remove it where I encounter it, and I will continue to remove external links if they're very tangential od turning into a WP:LINKFARM. PepperBeast (talk) 02:36, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
- Agreed. But please retain Meitei language references. They are more important as they contain more information. Haoreima (talk) 03:11, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
