Hello! I was doing some Huggle patrolling and ran into User talk:174.178.121.115, where a blocked IP has been making a bunch of edits to their talk that seem like they would be vandalism on any other page. Is this something I should being to AIV or another forum, or is there nothing more we'd typically do? Hamtechperson 19:50, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hamtechperson: Given that this shows no sign of ceasing, I've pulled talk page access per WP:TPA. - Aoidh (talk) 19:54, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Aoidh :) !

I have a problem with the user named @Geom. This user has changed my work in two different wikis (the Spanish site and the English site), so I think he is making these changes to damage my texts deliberately and without any reason.

I would like a librarian to review the changes he has made and undo them if he thinks my article was fine as it was.

I'm new to Wikipedia, so I don't know how to proceed in this case. Can you please tell me where I should ask for help?

Thanks in advance. Nonickillo (talk) 17:17, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Nonickillo: Each language is its own project on Wikipedia, and I am not familiar enough with es.wiki (Wikipedia en español) to be able to comment on that, but from what I can see on the English Wikipedia, the only time they have interacted with you is a revert to El amor de mi bohío. My suggestion would be to discuss the changes on the article's talk page. However, I have to agree in part with the revert, since describing the composer as "the great Cuban composer Julio Brito" is a MOS:PUFFERY issue and should be avoided. - Aoidh (talk) 21:01, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Aoidh, thanks so much for your kind response :) . Don't worry, I'm not concerned about Spanish Wikipedia right now, they have a lot of restrictive rules that makes near impossible to write there. My experience in the Spanish Wikipedia has not been entirely positive in terms of trying to reason and asking for help. That's why I have decided not to write anything more in Spanish. For this reason I don't want to deal with those users here too, I prefer a librarian to mediate in such "editing wars", if possible. Ok, I understand what you're saying about avoiding describing the author as "the great Cuban composer Julio Brito." I'll delete it right now, no problem. Is there anything else that you think I should be aware of? Thank you so much. All the best. Nonickillo (talk) 22:24, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hola, Aoidh. It seems that Nonickillo does not know the assumption of good faith. The Spanish version of es:El amor de mi bohío currently has a template equivalent to Template:Notability, but could be deleted in less than 30 days. That's why I removed the non-encyclopedic content on eswiki and did the same on the enwiki version.

• The first thing I did was connect the page to the Wikidata record that it didn't have.
• He said: "This user has changed my work". WP:OWN, Work submitted to Wikipedia can be edited, used, and redistributed by anyone. No one can think that they have the right to appropriate part or all of the content of a page. I edited it today, but you must assume that anyone else will change, remove, or add the content at any time. And if the editing is correct, it should not be reversed.
• I made that edit on eswiki and here because that article is about the song El amor de mi bohío, not about its author, who already has his own page to put his photos and nicknames. This is an encyclopedia, not a blog.

I just did that and I think the revert and subsequent comments are unnecessary. Nonickillo has only edited about this author and his songs. With a single edition there can be no edition war or even any persecution, only voluntary and routine work. The one who could complain is me, who has had a normal edit reverted as if it were vandalism. As you have already mentioned, this is not the place to talk about this. Sorry for the inconvenience. Cheers --Geom (talk) 23:50, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again, @Aoidh :)! By allusions, I must clarify that:

• There can be no good faith without dialogue, and that has been impossible for me in the Spanish Wikipedia.
• Of course I assume that articles can be changed, but what I don't think is necessary is to eliminate things like the fact that the author of the song is known by a nickname (a fact that is reliably referenced) or the image of the author, who was the first interpreter of the song. These changes seem unnecessary to me. As I understand it, the changes should improve the article, not destroy it.
• As for the template about the encyclopedic relevance of the article in eswiki, there is already a librarian who has stated that, in his opinion, this template is unnecessary, since the song is relevant enough to have an entry of its own.

In any case, as I said before: @Aoidh if in your opinion I should change anything else in the article to make it conform to enwiki's rules, I'll be glad to do it. Best regards :) !--Nonickillo (talk) 02:01, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
