However, this is not the correct venue to make edit requests. These requests should be made on the talk page of the page which you would like to be edited, if you request an edit on a page in which I have an interest it will appear on my watchlist, I will see it.

A major issue with the page Ezhava and a very recently formed page Tiyyar

[edit]

Hi @SSSB I have seen that you have edited the page Ezhava and related issues with that . from the records it is clear that almost all editors coniders ezhavas and thiyyas as synonymous and both are redirected to each other. I saw that a year back when such an issue came you took similar stance , I just checked the archieves and find out this , --> https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Ezhava&oldid=1031793980 however after violating this a new page has been created few days back , the page contradicts almost any thing the main page says and went to claim that thiyyas are a separate ethnicity . However the main page says that it is the same . Quoting from the main page Ezhava --> They are also known as Ilhava, Irava, Izhava and Erava in the south of the region; as Chovas, Chokons and Chogons in Central Travancore; and as Thiyyar, Tiyyas and Theeyas in the Malabar region. This is from the section variations from the main page ezhava. The problem is since these both are included together it would require to split like the entire pages , if it is separate . I have checked the past edits and archieves and the main admins had made it clear that both are same . It would require splitting up the page "Ezhava" too . Else it is like creating 10. 20 pages with the same name. Also thiyyas are being counted as a separate ethnicity in the page tiyyar in most of the cases including the govt records the name is thiyya , so like it is extra confusion. All the details are well discussed in the main page ezhava. the current page tiyyar even discusses , genetics like indo aryans etc, is a mere news article enough enough for this claims  ?? the article claims things like separate dialect for thiyya. I mean how can this be in an ecyclopedia even a news article wont say this?? Can u please check into this ? I think if it is separate the entire page need to be splitted up ? What do u think ? PN - I am a major reader of these topics since years and i genuinely think that its creating confusion . I had already intiated a session too can you please look into this ?

@Lisa121996: this appears to have sorted itself out. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. However, as you may have noticed, I am no longer active on this area of Wikipedia. In future, it may therefore be better for you to direct your concerns to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject India to garner more attention and better experts. SSSB (talk) 08:35, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re the above

I think you are being discriminate about which records you "choose" to see as trivia. For instance, most pitstops by a winning driver (for Verstappen) could be deemed trivia so why are you not removing that? I'm not going to revert your edit because i don't want to get banned re 3 revert rule, so i'll leave things as they are for now. Koppite1 (talk) 21:28, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To comment on your first sentence, I am covering that at the appropriate talk page. To answer your second sentence, because I didn't know that "stat" existed. To comment on your final sentence, you shouldn't revert my edit becuase the article is currently your prefered version without your "compromise". SSSB (talk) 21:33, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Koppite1: my final point is really one you need to be aware of, because your comment suggests you missed the point of my last edit to the relevant page.21:40, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Top 25

[edit]

Please look again at the Top 25 Report you just reverted. ThingsCanOnlyGetWetter made a list of his favourite UK political stories and replaced the real Top 25 with his list. Surely that isn't acceptable. 63.226.202.30 (talk) 07:48, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. My bad. Self-reverted. My apologies. I didnt check the edit properly SSSB (talk) 08:20, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hungarian GP

[edit]

The reason does make it sense. Source displays numbers held under FIA rule, not overall time held, per the prose. You have to go to Hungarian Grand Prix specifically to read total numbers held. Island92 (talk) 13:02, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Island92: your reason makes sense now that youve actually mentioned that it is a sourcing issue. Next time, why don't you actually use the word "source" in your edit summary. Instead of leavong no summary at all (like the first time). Or a summary that doesn't make sense (because the FIA don't "rule" anything, the edit didn't make any claims about the Fia being the governing body, and your summary didn't mention the source or lack thereof). Honestly, your lack of a coherent edit summary is starting to become a Wikipedia:Competence is required issue. SSSB (talk) 13:45, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was from mobile version and I wanted to make it quick. I'll take note of that next time, by explaining my edit summary much better. "Only part of FIA rule" meant to me under FIA scrutiny (and only to me obvious, as you did not get it), seeing that Stats F1.com counts only the editions under FIA scrutiny (2024 FIA Formula One World Championship Belgian Grand Prix, for example), that is running its 69th edition, not the "Belgian Grand Prix", who has reached the 80th edition of running. Regards. Island92 (talk) 15:38, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Island92: it's FIA governance, not rule or scrutiny. StatsF1 does not count events under FIa scrutiny, it counts Formula One Championship events. Stats F1 does this because its StatsF1, so it counts F1 events. If you look at the name of 2023 Belgian Grand Prix it is listed as the "Spa-Francorchamps". LXXIX Grand Prix de Belgique" LXXIX is roman numeral for 79. It lists it as the 79th Belgian Grand Prix. Likewise the Roman numerals at the StatsF1 page for the 2024 Hungarian Grand Prix identifies it as the 40th edition. SSSB (talk) 15:46, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I forgot that. Island92 (talk) 16:19, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
