So what's the difference between how I did it versus how you styled it? The information is all there regardless. Snickers2686 (talk) 13:52, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Note on Arb Enforcement blocks

Your unblock here was out of process, as only a clear consensus at WP:AE or WP:AN can overturn an arbitration enforcement block. In this circumstance I don't have any issue with the unblock, but you should reach out about such unblocks since it's one of those things with Any administrator who revokes or changes a contentious topic restriction out of process (i.e. without the above conditions being met) may, at the discretion of the Arbitration Committee, be desysopped.¹ attached to it, like wheel-warring.

Again, to be perfectly clear, I'm not complaining about the unblock and I am fine with it, I just wanted to make sure you were aware. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:18, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I didn't spot that and thought it was just a regular block. Will look out for that next time! — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:08, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Iamgiselesilva (18:20, 1 June 2024)

Hello, how do I create my page?? --Iamgiselesilva (talk) 18:20, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

What do you want to write about? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:26, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Olamiju Aduroja (19:25, 2 June 2024)

Hello , I am Olamiju please how can I add up picture to my article --Olamiju Aduroja (talk) 19:25, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

If you are writing about yourself, then I would kindly ask you not to (see WP:COI) — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 04:43, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Siralex1973 (19:40, 4 June 2024)

hi martin, i want to public this page: Draft:One for the Mockingbird I don't undestand why it hasn't be accepted.

Can you help me please? --Siralex1973 (talk) 19:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi there. The reasons for non-acceptance can be seen on the page: This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Most songs will not meet Wikipedia's requirements of notability, so you need to provide several in-depth references to prove this — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:49, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

hi Martin, i don't understand why this page One for the Mockingbird was a redirect to this page Broadcast (Cutting Crew album). --Siralex1973 (talk) 19:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Because it was a song from that album? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:31, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Template:WikiProject Korea has positional parameters

I just noticed that Template:WikiProject Korea has positional parameters but isn't yet tracked in Category:Pages using WikiProject banner templates with positional parameters. Gonnym (talk) 22:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

I don't think they were actually used for anything, so have just removed from the template — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:29, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Template:Counter-Vandalism Unit/fpage

I noticed Template:Counter-Vandalism Unit/fpage has escaped detection of Category:Custom class masks of WikiProject banners. Not sure if needed. Gonnym (talk) 08:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

It's not a custom mask - seems to be more like {{pagetype}}. I've replaced with _PAGETYPE_ which should do the job better — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 09:00, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Question about Template:WPBS

How does Module:Wikiproject banner inherit the class parameter from WPBS? I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue I'm having on another wiki. If the WPBS has a class, the project banner comes up unassessed. Yesterday, I exported the latest diffs of each module, and 99% of it works out of the box, but it's not inheriting...it's coming up as Unassessed-Class. –Fredddie™ 04:50, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

We are using Module:Template parameter value. You can see the code at Module:WikiProject banner#L-81 — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 05:15, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from SigNbol (02:35, 17 June 2024)

How do I upload a new picture? --SigNbol (talk) 02:35, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Is this a picture you have taken yourself? If so, head to commons:Special:UploadWizard and follow the steps — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 05:14, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

		The da Vinci Barnstar
		For leading the process of re-designing WP:Vital articles. I thought that this was the most appropriate barnstar. Great job and thanks for all your help on making the changes happen! Aszx5000 (talk) 09:56, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Well thanks a lot. But without you nothing would have happened — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:33, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
