Question from Cherubees on Community reinforcement approach and family training (01:26, 16 September 2025)

Hi, I’m confused about this page. I don’t see anything saying to use a certain dialect like I’ve seen on other pages, so I don’t know how to edit it. For example, behavior is spelled with a u, but I don’t know if that’s because they’re Canadian or Australian or British… The two people mentioned and American, so that just confuses me more. How do I know what dialect is being used? --Cherubees (talk) 01:26, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Green's 9th Edit-a-thon

Hello Ritchie333:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Editathon event in October 2025!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2025, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) editathon event with the theme What Women Do! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 different occupations or professions (or broader roles in society) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Question from 9jabase (10:39, 18 September 2025)

Hello 👋 how do I create a bio for a customer 🤔 --9jabase (talk) 10:39, 18 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The best advice is - don't. Have a look at improving an existing article on an unrelated topic first, before trying to write a new one, to gain experience in understanding how Wikipedia works. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 08:10, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Battle for Dream Island Wiki Protection

Back in 2022, you protected Battle for Dream Island from getting a wiki, due to notability issues. There are now news articles about it, as it collaborated with AMC Theatres to provide a theatrical release of its upcoming episode. I'd say, as long as people cite their sources correctly, the page should be allowed to be created. 2603:6080:D23D:B1EA:3995:B03D:41F1:794E (talk) 21:28, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) As WP:SALT says: To make a convincing case for re-creation, it is helpful to show a draft version of the intended article when filing a request. jlwoodwa (talk) 22:38, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In this particular case, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Battle for Dream Island, there was a community consensus to salt the article, so you will need to find a way of challenging and changing that. Creating a new draft and submitting it via Articles for creation is one way of doing that. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 08:28, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

September music

John Rutter 80 today! I sang his major choral works with four choirs, and many of his uplifting anthems, 13 DYK? I watched him explain his Magnificat in person in 1998, and now see it on Youtube: he wore the same outfit. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:04, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bryan Ferry 80 today! Don't think I've performed any of his songs myself, though. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:06, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Alice Harnoncourt 95 OTD, principal violin]] of the Concentus Musicus. I felt connected when the second oboist of our recent concert, of Haydn's Stabat Mater, said that he built an English horn for his performance of the work with the Concentus Musicus. - Concert weekend pictured in "places". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:35, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Kamlbash kunwar he is bhojpuri folk singer dugola singer as well as zila parishad too 4 times winner Shubhamraai (talk) 10:55, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the best thing to do is to start the Article wizard, which will guide you through steps for assembling sources and creating a draft. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 11:37, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey please check my draft and suggest me what i can do more and will it be accepted by wikipedia and let me give permission to add image Shubhamraai (talk) 11:41, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User 93.143.173.65

Hello Sir, I would like to inform you that the user you blocked continues to harass me on WikiMedia. See here. JohnDavies9612 (talk) 16:49, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, I don't have any administrative control over other WikiMedia projects, such as Wikimedia Commons, and (as far as I know), you can only globally ban on lock users across all projects, not IPs. I wonder if any talk page stalkers know anything better. In the meantime, I've changed the IP's block on here to site wide, as they can't simply contribute constructively without harassing other editors. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 17:57, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Global IP blocks do exist, and can be requested at m:SRG. jlwoodwa (talk) 18:48, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the explanation Mr. Ritchie333. Mr/Mrs jlwoodwa, I will make a request for that, thanks. JohnDavies9612 (talk) 01:54, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

🤭😮‍💨 93.140.218.107 (talk) 16:04, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mr @Ritchie333, the user you blocked has harassed me again using a different IP. He has written a lewd word that means 'take a dick in a shit hole' in Malay. See here. @Jlwoodwa JohnDavies9612 (talk) 17:18, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That IP has also been globally locked. Unfortunately, the IP address range is very large (covering most if not all of Croatia) so blocking all IPs would probably introduce too much collateral damage, stopping other people from being to edit, so it looks like we might end up playing Whack a mole with IP blocks. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:54, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, sir. Actually I don't want to deal with that IP but he often bothers me. Anyway, thanks for the explanation. JohnDavies9612 (talk) 10:17, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler James Robinson

Hey,

I saw that you closed and merged the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tyler James Robinson.

FYI, the vast majority of !votes was to keep.

Could you please restore it? IdanST (talk) 15:48, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I explained that while closing the discussion - AfD is not a vote and the close is based on the quality of arguments, not the number. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 09:46, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Shubhamraai (11:10, 28 September 2025)

Heyy i am not able to add image on Wikipedia can you help me with that to have permission of that --Shubhamraai (talk) 11:10, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't have problems with uploading images you have taken, and / or can be proven to be the copyright holder. The File help page has further information. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 15:01, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Georgeawonusi (10:45, 29 September 2025)

Do i get paid for editing already existing articles? --Georgeawonusi (talk) 10:45, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, Wikipedia is a volunteer service, nobody should get paid for anything - we edit because it's fun and we want to. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 11:44, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
