Short descriptions

[edit]

Hello, what is the point of this edit? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Liebe_Macht_Monster&diff=prev&oldid=1184015565 --FMSky (talk) 11:55, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I find short descriptions more helpful if they are as short as possible. I think short descriptions should represent the shortest way to describe an article, and therefore information like the year or the genre of the band is not useful there. Of course, that's just my opinion...
The automatically generated short description for albums always show the year, and I don't think it is something that should appear in a short description. For me it makes more sense to write the number of the album, for example "Third studio album by...". However, the claim that "Third studio album by..." is better than "2003 studio album by...", is not valid in my opinion...
Therefore, I claim that short descriptions should be as short as possible (opinion, but I find it a valid one), and that's why I believe that "Studio album by..." is better than "2003 studio album by..."

The automated one is used in thousands of articles and is the standard one, so that should be used --FMSky (talk) 17:30, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Thank you for the information.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aneuma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Navia. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Fading requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Fading. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
