Thank you for all of your help! I just have a couple of questions.

Hi Chris, I have been working on the Bioelectricity Wikipedia page with my colleagues and I really appreciate all the help that you have provided us in making the page more suitable for Wikipedia. We have put in citations in all the places that citations have been requested and also responded to the suggestion to merge with Biomagnetics (which we do not agree with and put our statement in the appropriate talk page a couple of weeks ago). I am wondering if you'd be willing to remove the two tags on the top of the page that indicate the need for the citations (which we have put in) and the suggestion for the merge (which we don't agree with and no one else has added to the conversation)? I really appreciate your help with our efforts to make the field of Bioelectricity more available for the general public to learn about and to hopefully enrich and inspire lives through learning.

Best wishes and many thanks,

Need an Editor

Hello.

I see you have made recent edits to the page for my close friend Stanley Krippner.

Stan would like to have corrections/additions made to his Wikipedia page. Although I have made minor updates to other pages, updates to Stan's would involve references and names that can be drilled down on to other articles (I don't know what these links are called). This is beyond my interest to become that proficient.

Please reply with your previous interest in and knowledge of Stan and his career, how you came to update his article, and if you are interested in assisting us.

Many thanks. Phrzbyphil (talk) 13:32, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

nope. i'm just fixing references. but editing pages where you have a close relationship is called conflict of interest and strongly discouraged. see WP:COI. — Chris Capoccia 💬 17:09, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

+== Need an Editor  ==
-== Looks like I've got some homework to do ==
+Hello.
-re: History of Baseball in the United States. I see you wrote out a couple of references in "Wikipedia longhand." Great, I assume that's necessary. Though a simple link seems to get the reader to the same place, there must be a reason for breaking down some citations into their component labels -- first name, last name, etc.
+I see you have made recent edits to the page for my close friend Stanley Krippner.
+Stan would like to have corrections/additions made to his Wikipedia page.  Although I have made minor updates to other pages, updates to Stan's would involve references and names that can be drilled down on to other articles (I don't know what these links are called).  This is beyond my interest to become that proficient.
+Please reply with your previous interest in and knowledge of Stan and his career, how you came to update his article, and if you are interested in assisting us.
+Many thanks. [[User:Phrzbyphil|Phrzbyphil]] ([[User talk:Phrzbyphil|talk]]) 13:32, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
+:nope. i'm just fixing references. but editing pages where you have a close relationship is called conflict of interest and strongly discouraged. see [[WP:COI]].&nbsp;&nbsp;—&nbsp;[[User:Chris Capoccia|Chris Capoccia]] [[User talk:Chris Capoccia|💬]] 17:09, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
-My original intent was to merely copy edit, but I realized without some more citations, the article might get bonged and all my copy editing would be for nothing, so I started looking for links to either confirm a given statement of fact or add content that didn't need to be brought into the article but that augmented the text. Fine. I'll learn when to {{Cite}} and when to add a simple link. I hope.
-Your edit in the heading "The Science of the Sport Changes the Game" is one such, where you left one link untouched and turned the other into a lengthier citation. However, there is now an error message I don't understand: "Cite error: A ref tag is missing the closing /ref (see the help page)." Fact is, the </ref> seems to be right where it belongs. Can you illuminate for me?
-Just curious -- how were you alerted to those two references, deep inside this article? They can't possibly be the only two I got wrong!
-I'm a newbie, Chris, and as such will probably be a bit of a pest for a while. Thanks for any feedback you can give me. Cheers, [[User:Jhoughton1|Jim Houghton]]
-: i was searching for nih.gov pmc URLs that needed to be formatted as citations. then i used citation bot to assist with adding in details. focus on editing parts you feel comfortable with. other people will edit other stuff.&nbsp;&nbsp;—&nbsp;[[User:Chris Capoccia|Chris Capoccia]] [[User talk:Chris Capoccia|💬]] 21:25, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
-Of course, Chris, I am doing as you say -- this article contains plenty of awkward writing to keep a copy editor busy. Do I understand, though, that it's okay for me to add a link as validation of a claim or a path to further reading, leaving it to others to format the links/citations properly? Since a global critique of the article is that it lacks "citations for verification" I feel I'm at least contributing relevant information, saving others the need to look for it, even if the last step is left undone. Also, continue to be curious why that reference kicked out an error, since the ref-ref brackets looked to be correct. Thanks for responding. [[User:jhoughton1|Jim Houghton]]
-:definitely. put some kind of reference there and someone else can adjust the formatting.&nbsp;&nbsp;—&nbsp;[[User:Chris Capoccia|Chris Capoccia]] [[User talk:Chris Capoccia|💬]] 20:05, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
-== Institutional apartheid ==
-User:Chris Capoccia Thanks for the help in cleaning up the cites in IR, I think this section on Algeria had an error - the quote was not to be in the reference and you cleaned it up by removing it. It was the quote the ref was to address. ''"In contrast with the Moroccan and Tunisian protectorates, Algeria was made an integral part of France and became a colony of settlement for more than one million Europeans... under colonial rule, Algerians encountered France's 'civilizing mission' only through the plundering of lands and <font color="#000000">[[colonialism|colonial]]</font> apartheid society...."'' Could you return it outside the ref? I don't know when it was done, if my orig error or one of the changes made over the years, but it was not my intent..
-the same applies to * ''"[the] senatus-consulte of 1865 stipulated that all the colonized indigenous were under French jurisdiction, i.e., French nationals subjected to French laws, but it restricted citizenship only to those who renounced their Muslim religion and culture. There was an obvious split in French legal discourse: a split between nationality and citizenship, which established the formal structures of a political apartheid encouraging the existence of 'French subjects' disenfranchised, without any rights to citizenship, treated as objects of French law and not citizens".'' and * '' "Algeria was in fact a colony but constitutionally was a part of France and not thought of in the 1950s as a colony. It was a society of nine million or so 'Muslim' Algerians who were dominated by the million <font color="#000000">[[settlers]]</font> of diverse origins (but fiercely French) who maintained a quasi-apartheid regime".''

-Hello Chris - I am a bit confused by your recent change. Is it a mistake or what was the reason please?
-Also if you are interested in the subject and have time might you be able to complete the good article review which seems to have stalled. I would like to know what else needs fixing before it can be a good article. [[User:Chidgk1|Chidgk1]] ([[User talk:Chidgk1|talk]]) 06:05, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
