List of How I Met Your Mother episode

[edit]

Would you have any objection to me persuing a FLC for the article List of How I Met Your Mother episodes I ask as you are the fourth highest editor behind me, an IP, and a retired editor. Olliefant (she/her) 20:25, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@OlifanofmrTennant Go for it. My last non-AWB edit to the article was seven years ago in 2018. Good luck with your FLC. -- Alex_21 TALK 21:18, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring over genres in lead

[edit]

First, both of you need to stop edit warring. You are both very close to being blocked. Another thing which isn't helping is that you are reverting without explaining the reason for your edits. Long before this point, you should be using talk pages to discuss the disagreement with the other editor (because the other user is an IP editor, it can help to use their talk page or at least leave them a link to any article talk page discussions). And that doesn't mean leaving them multiple vandalism warnings. Overall, this is pretty bitey stuff so it's not surprising that you're being reverted in return. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 03:36, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Daniel Quinlan Thanks for this post. Concerning you should be using talk pages to discuss the disagreement with the other editor (because the other user is an IP editor, it can help to use their talk page [...]) I'm sure that you checked the relevant contributions and that you're aware that I did exactly that. Check their talk page history, and you'll see the detailed posts and quoting of relevant guidelines. Thus, given their clear WP:NOTHERE behaviour, I reverted the evident vandalism across a multitude of articles. -- Alex_21 TALK 05:30, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You're right that you did eventually engage on the talk page and I appreciate you participating in that discussion. That said, the conversation was actually started by a third editor and not as a result of your warnings or reverts. It's still concerning that you made a large number of reverts using default edit summaries without explaining your reasoning and you left vandalism warnings even though this appears to be a dispute involving an area of the MOS that often causes friction. That kind of approach comes across as bitey especially toward less experienced editors and can make it more likely that things escalate into an edit war. Going forward, please try to use edit summaries that explain your changes and try to assume good faith in talk page comments when there's room to do that. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:57, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I see where you're coming from, but as another editor stated, defending the encyclopedia and getting a bad rapport from others truly is a thankless task. I will continue to revert evident vandalism (i.e. where an editor has a direct intent to disrupt articles for their own personal agenda) as needed. No further replies are necessary here. Thank you for your work. -- Alex_21 TALK 07:01, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Episode list issue

[edit]

Hello! I believe your edit to Module:Episode list this evening is causing Lua errors on a few hundred pages stating "Lua error in Module:Table_empty_cell at line 43: attempt to concatenate local 'titleText' (a nil value)." Module:Table_empty_cell hasn't been edited since 2022, and your edit is the only one I've seen relating to Episode list that's been edited this year. Hennesey is one example article displaying the errors. Would you have a second look? Thanks, Zinnober9 (talk) 01:07, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Zinnober9 Thanks for the message! It's definitely my edit causing it, so I've reverted it for the time being. I spent a few minutes trying to debug why it was happening. but to no avail just yet; I'll take a more detailed look into it later today. Apologies! -- Alex_21 TALK 03:17, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I frequently use your User:Alex 21/script-redlinks. I noticed that it adds a header called "TV Tools"[1], but there doesn’t seem to be any functionality under it. It also appears quite large. Would it be possible to remove or fix this? আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 01:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
