Law & Order: Special Victims Unit season 6

Hi UtherSRG. Would you consider full protection for this article or perhaps ECP rather than semi-protection? The disruption looks more like a content dispute over sourcing and other issues with an addition. And the editor adding that information appears to now have an autoconfirmed account. The semi-protection seems like it will only limit an unregistered editor that is appropriately removing the addition. Thanks. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 03:48, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Daniel Quinlan: Done! - UtherSRG (talk) 12:03, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Richard E. Jones

Okay maybe, I should ask for more clarification, since "Becuase it's a different person" is not answering this for me: What justifies replacing the redirect set up for the minor planet discoverer with a soft redirect to the Wikispecies page for the myriapodologist? Is one demonstratably more notable than the other? (Though I take it both fail WP:NOTABILITY since we're creating redirects for both of them instead of writing articles about them) Should the minor planet discoverer not have a redirect at all? (To be quite honest I am not a fan of Wikispecies soft redirect links either, but that's not relevant here)

Another reason I ask is because I noticed that List of minor planet discoverers actually seems to have ~940 other redirects to anchors in the list much like the Richard E. Jones one, and I wondered if you were aware of this. Monster Iestyn (talk) 15:21, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The redirect to species is to an article about the one, while the redirect for the amateur astronomer is just to a list. The myriopodologist has a chance of becoming an article, the astronomer does not. Both of those facts weigh in favor of my edit. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:45, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright then, that makes sense, in that case I'll not press you on this any further. Monster Iestyn (talk) 16:24, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from HelpyHelper1 on User:HelpyHelper1 (22:48, 24 November 2024)

Hey so I want to create a whole new wilipedia theme about Lana lore. How do i do that? --HelpyHelper1 (talk) 22:48, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@HelpyHelper1: What do you mean theme? What is Lana lore? - UtherSRG (talk) 22:49, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Basically I just want to create a whole new article about Lana lore from dress to impress HelpyHelper1 (talk) 22:50, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@HelpyHelper1: Writing an article is the hardest thing to do here. If you wish to proceed, you should start with WP:MFA. I'll also put some links on your talk page that will help in general. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:53, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Responses from Notafly

Eudonia lineola Fixed.Sentences now. Have to do the same for several others. Thanks for the prompt and best regards. Notafly (talk) 08:19, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:05, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Eudonia mercurella Translated from German. Added the tag to refs . Again thanks Notafly (talk) 08:33, 25 November 2024 (UTC) @Notafly: That was insufficient. That should have been your edit summary when you did the translation. That's only one aspect: linking your translation to the other wiki's authors. The other aspect is that of verification: all assertions of facts need to be tied to a reference that is cited to verify those facts. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:18, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ongoing. Have to go to the library though so please bear with me. I need to fix a lot of edits for other micros in similar fashion.Part of the problem is that hardcopy authors give only general references to save on excess.Just a part Regards Notafly (talk) 18:50, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kuwavaatakdectes

Hi UtherSRG,

What is the reason for removing my comments on the etymology of Kuwavaatakdecteson the Kuwavaatakdectes page? It is relevant for the taxonomy section, and the etymology of Oradectes and Kuwavaatakdectes is mentioned in Kissel (2010) and Ponstein et al. (2024) respectively. Or would I need to repeat the citation at the end of each line? Ponsdedons (talk) 16:48, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you need to indicate where the assertion comes from. Please see WP:V, one of our strongest policies. - UtherSRG (talk) 19:13, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from August899 (02:09, 30 November 2024)

Hi Hi Mentor, Happy Holidays. Could you please provide me with a few editing skills to make my practice article publishable as an article? Thanks. --August899 (talk) 02:09, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@August899: I can not grant you skills... you have to learn them. :) If you are looking to write an article, know that creating a new article is one of the hardest things you can chose to do here. I suggest getting to know the place by finding articles related to the topic you want to write about and helping to improve them. I'll put some helpful links on your talk page, but when you are ready to writing a new article I suggest using WP:MFA. - UtherSRG (talk) 03:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see that you already have the helpful links, and that you are already getting your draft reviewed. Read the info the reviewers leave you in the comments and the decline notice. Every link has helpful information. - UtherSRG (talk) 03:35, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Snow leopard

Was that word already mentioned before? Why is why you reverted my edit? Eiehel (talk) 11:45, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, as I said in my edit summary. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:19, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
