Hi Eastern Geek! Thanks for contributing to Misplaced Pages. Delivered by HostBot on behalf of the Teahouse hosts 16:01, 6 December 2021 (UTC) |
What are you doing?
You have changed a massive amount of pages from an appropriate category (Norwegian monarchs) to a category of a time period they didn't even live in (10th century). --TylerBurden (talk) 07:27, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- I'm fixing it right now!--Eastern Geek (talk) 07:29, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Right, it appears to be all good now. Be careful with that. :) --TylerBurden (talk) 07:38, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
Now you're doing it again. Frankly you are making very clumsy use of whatever tool you are using, or your intentions here are not good. --TylerBurden (talk) 18:37, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- I actually removed redundant categories using cat-a-lot properly. This time I used the tool right. Take for example this edit. Category:Norwegian monarchs is not necessary if an article is under the "21st-century Norwegian monarchs" category, which is included in the general category of Norwegian monarchs. Do you get it?--Eastern Geek (talk) 15:11, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- I can't say that I do, but I haven't been working with categories much at all on Misplaced Pages. However it doesn't seem redundant to me. Even if it is "included in the general category" what damage does it do that a Norwegian Monarch page has a link to the Norwegian Monarchs category? Not to mention, you offer no reasons in your edit summaries using that tool. --TylerBurden (talk) 15:23, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- It's not so difficult to understand. 21st-century Norwegian monarchs is a category inside the category on Norwegian monarchs in general. With cat-a-lot we can remove redundant categories like the latter from each single article without wasting time by doing it manually one for one. The same goes for 13th-century Norwegian monarchs, 12th-century, etc. As far as edit summaries, the tool doesn't allow me to add them, since it's automatic. For the moment I won't use the tool anymore, I'm learning more about it so I don't make mistakes like the first time.--Eastern Geek (talk) 15:29, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- But again what damage does it do? All articles on Misplaced Pages seem to have practically any categories fitting them on them, so what's so special about this relatively obscure topic that is Norwegian Monarchs? Even if it is in multiple categories that are linked to each other, it's not like it really matters. It just gives people a chance to go to directly to the more general category or a specific one. --TylerBurden (talk) 15:37, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- Having read through WP:CATSPECIFIC I understand the situation better, sorry making things difficult for you. As I said categories isn't an area I've delved into yet. Good luck with the tool though. --TylerBurden (talk) 17:25, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Arab Israeli conflict
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
