Missleading information

Hi LizardJr8, Happy New Year! Thank you so much for quickly responding to my COI request on Katie Bickerstaffe. I have noticed that the first line of the article remains unchanged. Please could you take a look and update it so that it is clear she is a former co-CEO? Thank you! Sosan84 (talk) 16:47, 10 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Add them to your request then. But sources need to be reliable, independent and secondary publications that talk about him in detail. A list of books or passing reference like a lecture or poetry reading would not be sufficient. I won't be adding him because I do not believe the above qualify. Someone else might see differently, however. LizardJr8 (talk) 05:12, 21 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Aspen Dental email issue

edit

Hi User:LizardJr8, I’m hitting an issue when trying to email the newspaper article about Aspen Dental to you. When I click through the email link you provided, under the box with your username there is red text saying “This user has chosen not to receive email from other users”. Is it possible that you need to do something on your end to allow me to send the email? Thanks again, Annie at TAG (talk) 18:49, 24 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

So sorry! I don't know why that happened, I had it set to allow emails. But I added the ability to get emails from "new" users so maybe that will do it. I'm not sure if your account has autoconfirmed permissions.
It that still doesn't work then let me know and we can try something else. (Although I'm not sure what...) LizardJr8 (talk) 18:53, 24 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

Gangwar Surname: page can be improved with more information.

edit

Hello brother, i have seen you have contributions on the Gangwar (surname) wiki page and so many people and editors were trying to contribute on the page but without sources no one was able to contribute much. And currently the page doesn't have any information about the surname and the community which can be improved.

I have researched and found some of the sources that gives much information about the community that is currently not included and by editing the page can provide more information about the community to its readers.

I have already made an edit request and provided some sources as citation. And i have found more books sources using which we can improve the page.

I am not eligible to edit it as page is protected so can you help me regarding this? 4rju9 (talk) 20:09, 14 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

I don't actually care what he is. You have added POV language, and not provided a source. LizardJr8 (talk) 23:58, 15 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
So I can't say he was a murderer who is celebrated by Serbs for being a murderer? What source would I need for that? That's simply a fact, just restated from the existing contents of the article. Croatiannegga (talk) 23:59, 15 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Lol so pressed. Ok then go ahead and do what you want, keep siding with a Serbian murderer who is still celebrated for his sins.

Hi User:LizardJr8

I am new to assisting on Wikipedia, and I'm unclear on your response that adding source links such as Certified Horsmanship Association, and links to canadian dictionalry sources concerning Catholic Saints is considered advertisment. Please advise and thank you in advance for your assistance. Johnwinterson (talk) 11:04, 12 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

If you are adding links, they should be formatted as references (see WP:REFBEGIN for how to do that: you put them inside of between <ref>...</ref> tags in the article. But such references should generally be secondary sources, such as news articles/books/websites about the subject. It looks like most of what you tried to add would qualify.
But linking a site's webpage (like cha.horse) would be considered to be a primary source, and primary sources are not preferred since they are not independent of the subject. Website addresses that are relevant to the topic can be placed in an "External links" section of the article.
Does that make sense? Let me know if it is still unclear. LizardJr8 (talk) 20:07, 12 September 2025 (UTC)Reply

Minerva University’s ‘Habits of Mind and Foundational Concepts’

edit

Those hashtagged items are the exact wording of their educational content (e.g. #nudge, #emotionalpersuasion, #probability, #bodylanguage). Also, these pieces of information should not be hidden from the public although they seem to do so. Because they benefit from others not knowing and from exploiting people who are oblivious. This should not continue happening and people need to realize those cognitive skills exist. Wikipedia needs to contain that information. The content may seem unclear and vague to people who are not unfamiliar with the mechanism of such a format, but they themselves play a very important role in that format. Its format lies on human cognition and utility. ~2026-21956-03 (talk) 21:36, 9 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

The content does not have any narrative text. It is just a list of hashtags and does not have any encyclopedic value without it; you should make some description of where it all came from and what it means. LizardJr8 (talk) 21:39, 9 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
