Tips

• Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
• It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
• If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
• When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
• If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
• Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Hi Dingers5Days. I noticed you removed "Meatball Ron" from the List of nicknames used by Donald Trump article. There's been some discussion of that nickname on the article's talk page - I wonder if you'd be interested in taking part. WJ94 (talk) 08:56, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I noticed you removed my list of several nickames for Adam Schiff used by Donald Trump, saying they "do not meet 2021 RFC." Can you please elaborate on what the issue is? I plan on reinstating this edit ASAP, as these are well known nicknames used by Trump over a period of several years up to today. Loltardo (talk) 04:12, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See the post I made in the talk page for the Trump nicknames article, which reminds everyone of the 2021 RFC. Most importantly, nicknames must be used more than once, be covered in secondary sources, and be described as a nickname. Dingers5Days (talk) 04:29, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2024 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:50, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dingers5Days, Your addition of "FocalData" to the page "Opinion polling for the 2025 Canadian federal election" has been reverted.

There was extensive discussion on the talk page about which polls should be included, and which should not.

Please engage the talk page there before adding a new poll company.

Canadianpoliticaljunkie (talk) 15:50, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Noted. The Focaldata poll has been reported on in WP:RS such as POLITICO and USA Today, but not in trackers like CBC and 338, so I can understand why it might be contentious. Dingers5Days (talk) 16:04, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Criticize. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Cal Raleigh—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Criticize (talk) 02:02, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Understandable. But can't say that I agree with the revert: the nickname is puerile, yes, but see WP:NOTCENSORED. Reliable sources mention that he has the nickname because of his large backside, and it's not discernible from the rest of the article why Raleigh has the nickname. Explaining nicknames is common for sports players on their pages (for a baseball example of a non-obvious nickname which references a player's physique see Nick Kurtz's page), and Kelenic himself says he gave him the nickname because of his ass. Dingers5Days (talk) 02:19, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tough move here, but I understand you completely now that you brought up WP:NOTCENSORED. Criticize (talk) 02:28, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
