Hudson River is not a Fjord

Please restore my edits, Adakiko.

The page used to substantiate the claim that the Hudson is a Fjord no longer exists. This is an active page from the same source stating that the Hudson is an estuary. The Fjord reference has been deleted: https://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/4923.html

This may have caused the confusion as it says "fjord-like". https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/hudson-river-estuary/hudson-river-valley-geological-history-landforms-and-resources/437396AB8C9F8ED509D5E2084C63B7E3


This Clearly separates the Hudson from a Fjord as it is considered a Salt-wedge Estuary https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/education/tutorial_estuaries/est05_circulation.html

National Geographic, with a clear definition and no mention of NY or the Hudson; only Alaska https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/fjord/ 67.82.170.88 (talk) 11:40, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

Adakiko, can you verify that my edits have been restored?

I only have your claim that the source was withdrawn. Do you have any evidence for this? Adakiko (talk) 17:36, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
I've warned the IP about mixing advocacy (they appear to be opposing the "Hudson Valley Fjord" trail) and geology, and trying to use Wikipedia as part of that campaign. Acroterion (talk) 17:42, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – June 2023

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
  • As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news

  • Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration

  • The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

Hi! I added a source. Thanks. 2001:999:70C:A669:B9E5:53AF:DF55:FCEB (talk) 08:37, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Why did you revert my edits?

I made some edits to Tricky Dicky to be more up to date, but you reverted them. Why? 2600:6C5A:417F:794E:2C23:3F05:A66D:15C3 (talk) 18:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for the message. Your edit was unsourced and appeared to be wp:original research. Please see wp:citing sources. My apology for not leaving a message. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 18:11, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
My edits weren't originally resources. I've been reading the Beano (on the Internet Archive) and no issues past March 2021 have featured Tricky Dicky. 128.92.166.70 (talk) 19:32, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

User Drmies

Hi I just wanted to express disappointment on user Drmies, I have an issue with the user deleting country comparison, from many of the pages such as “United states Soviet Union relations” and “Russia and United States relations” I ask if you can restore that please. Or what resources can I reach out to get that restored and ask the user to stop deleting the country comparison. Jesus231 (talk) 21:57, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

<tps>Why do you think all that belongs in that specific article, and why are you removing everything else in retaliation? [1] Acroterion (talk) 22:02, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
@Jesus231: I would suggest you take discuss personal issues with Drmies on their user talk page. Article-specific content should be discussed on the article's talk page. See help:talk pages. BTW: I would avoid taunting the tiger Adakiko (talk) 22:35, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
Hmm "tiger" is flattering but an overstatement. Drmies (talk) 22:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
You do have this reputation... Adakiko (talk) 16:28, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Confused by reversion

Hi, I notice you reverted my edit on Gray code [2] with the only explanation being "says that".

As it stands, the article reads:

"the least significant bit follows a repetitive pattern of 2 on, 2 off ( … 11001100 … ); the next digit a pattern of 4 on, 4 off; the nth least significant bit a pattern of 2^n on 2^n off."

For a 4-bit encoding, this would imply that the last (least significant) bit follows 2 on/2 off, the second-last is 4 on/4 off, the third-last (the second bit) is 8 on/8 off, and the fourth-last, i.e. the first, is 16 on/16 off, as 2^4 = 16.

However, as the 4-bit example in the article shows, this rule is not correct for the first bit. Both the first and the second bit follow 8 on/8 off; since the whole sequence repeats with period 16, it would be impossible to have a 16 on/16 off pattern. The most significant bit is an exception to the 2^n rule stated in the article.

Can you please clarify why this edit was reverted? I'm not sure what "says that" is meant to mean. 110.23.152.248 (talk) 14:13, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

That was quite a while ago. I'm not sure what I was referring to. Please feel free to restore that content. As I'm not clear on the matter, I will not be able to justify my change. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 02:16, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
Thank you! Apologies for not querying this at the time, I don't check Wiki often. 110.23.152.248 (talk) 04:25, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Existential therapy

Hi! I removed a large amount of info intentionally from existential psychotherapy because the content on the page was only relevant to existentialism, existential philosophy and european philosophy. Existential psychotherapy is actually a form of psychotherapy which is derived from humanistic psychology and not philosophy. It only minimally incorporates philosophy :-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Irismurdoc (talk • contribs) 19:42, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

@Irismurdoc: You removed 75% of the article. Please discuss on talk:existential therapy and get wp:consensus before removing that amount unless it is obvious wp:vandalism or unsourced. See help:talk pages. On talk pages, please put new discussions at the bottom of the page. Thank you Adakiko (talk) 20:16, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

PH Nargeolet.

If you wrote the Family section, you made several mistakes. I knew PH personally and I know these things to be false. For example, his daughters were not with Michele Marsh. Also, John Paschall was his stepson, not his adopted son. I don't know where you got your information, but these things are incorrect.

I'm correcting again to reflect the truth without the mistakes. Nicebelt (talk) 04:25, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Adakiko I don't know why you insist on reinstating incorrect information. There is no citation anywhere that indicates PHs daughters were with Michele Marsh. They were not.
There is also no citation that states that John Paschall was adopoted. In fact he was his step-son. You can see a tweet here from him indicating as such.
https://twitter.com/John_Paschall/status/1672191126244057091
Nor is there any citation that indicates he was married only twice. He had another spouse who is not mentioned here.
I included my citation of the New York Times obituary which is consistent with everything I included.
Everyone knows that Wikipedia has to be read with a certain degree of skepticism because people post false information, and your insistence on reinstating falsehoods is reinforcing that reputation of being unreliable.
Nicebelt (talk) 13:34, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
@Nicebelt: That content cites wp:reliable sources. Do you have a source that supports otherwise?

Master Roshi

The voice actor information was wrong, the thing is that the source is from someone on Discord who was given information on the true voice actors of the dub. 47.20.35.146 (talk) 11:11, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

All I see in the source is: Trusted source, without any specification. 47.20.35.146 (talk) 11:23, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

dragonball.fandom.com is wp:user-generated content (UGC) and not wp:RS. Discord is also UGC. It would be nice to have RS, but I suspect it might be difficult. If you change it back, I won't revert. Please leave an wp:edit summary to minimize others reverting you. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 11:30, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello!

Hi. Islam and violence article and ip user or users who do mass change of long standing content with only argument as it is seems to they don't like something. Now everything seems strange about how that users act. Maybe some page protection or something could work. As seems to that article is one target for ip user/users who don't have good intentions. Sorry for taking your time and thank you very much. Srafciger88 (talk) 14:17, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

@Srafciger88: Be careful of wp:canvassing. Discuss on talk:Islam and violence and notify likely interested editors. See Help:Notifications. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 18:51, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
I am not experienced so I don't know about page protections and how that should be done. But I will research more. That was my concern. As seems to ip user or users keep page on their watch to fast do their edits without any explanation and I don't want to make some edit war or so. Srafciger88 (talk) 19:50, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Re: recent additions

Refer Freya Tingley’s official Instagram “@freyatingley” and the UN’s official website for context on recent amendments. Tingley is currently in New York serving as a delegate for Human Rights, during their 75th anniversary. Amendments to her career and profile are adjusted with her and the public interests in mind, both factual and respectful, on behalf of her. 49.181.193.247 (talk) 13:04, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

TruNews

Hello, I believe that your edits have put false information back onto the article "TruNews", please state which things are incorrect instead of reverting the whole thing. JoeyDarks11 (talk) 00:26, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

@JoeyDarks11: Read the citations. Adakiko (talk) 00:30, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Edit warring

Hey, not gonna template you, but you hit the edit-warring threshold on Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Pass it off to the relevant admin board and let them handle the IP; after how they were with my requests for comment yesterday, the IP will likely get a short block that forces them to engage in dialogue. ~ Pbritti (talk) 23:03, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Oh, I wouldn't worry—it's obviously an accident. Hey, saw you went to AIV; recommend Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring instead. ~ Pbritti (talk) 23:06, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
@Pbritti: Must have forgotten to post! EWN is a good idea. I need to try Twinkle's EW features. Thanks again! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 17:34, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
Oh, no problem. I've been keeping tabs on the relevant articles to monitor for the same SoCal IP's potential continued violations/issues, but things look stable now and I have hope that the IP editor now understands that consensus and verifiability are required. Best to you! ~ Pbritti (talk) 18:00, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Read edits before reverting!

Generic claims of unconstructed editing or factual errors which don’t apply are not a valid justification for reversions. Read edits, work constructively. Thanks 213.107.85.160 (talk) 03:13, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing that out

Thanks for pointing out your dissatisfaction with Fragrantica's entries for refs: while Fragrantica doesn't sell perfumes per se, the site indeed has an integration-like block of ads titled "Great deals at EBay!". My last edits were mostly related to antique or outdated perfumes though. 81.89.66.133 (talk) 10:25, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
