Hello, Ternera. When you revert a user's changes, like you did earlier, don't forget to leave the user a message on their talk page, especially when reverting vandalism or a test edit. You may find Template:User talk page warnings/table useful when doing this, to let them know that the change was considered inappropriate, and to direct them to the sandbox. Thank you.

Declined
[change source]Hi! Some things, like Talk:Arkansas, don't need QDing and instead just need to be fixed. Thanks, Astera🪻 talk edits 18:37, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
- It would be better to blank the page instead of deleting it and starting over? Ternera (talk) 18:39, 20 September 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, it could be better that way. Sometimes, there are easier options. Astera🪻 talk edits 18:39, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Vanilla software
[change source]On vanilla software, the original reference was definitely bad, but you replaced it with a reference that doesn't even mention the term at all. (In any case, I'm going to nominate the article for deletion). Batrachoseps (talk) 18:36, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Batrachoseps. Hmm, I replaced it with the reference that is used at enwiki. I do agree that reference I added is not much better than the previous one though. Since there is an article about the topic on enwiki, I do feel that it could be improved here to the point that it could be kept. Ternera (talk) 18:40, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- I don't know why enwiki uses that ref as it's completely useless for this subject. I'm not sure why the article there exists either, as it just seems like a definition. But if you really want, you can change the simple article to be more like that. The current simple article is called vanilla software but is really about modding, and it's full of unnecessary LLM padding. Batrachoseps (talk) 18:44, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- At the moment, I am not interested in modifying the article to look like the one on enwiki. Maybe it would just be a better idea for you to do a RFD and see if someone else steps in to improve it. Ternera (talk) 18:48, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

[change source]Should I go ahead and report this user if he vandalizes again? Cause I already saw your report but he has not got the final warning from your report, I sent the final one after a diff on an article, Benny the Bull. 𝓐𝓭𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓲𝓭𝓮 (𝓽𝓪𝓵𝓴 ♡ 𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓫𝓼) 16:18, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Your good-faith mistake
[change source]You might consider backtracking your wrongful justification for QD. (Or you might remove your QD request.)
simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ASandbox&diff=10086232&oldid=10086215
The diff above might be helpful for you to understand your mistake.--Everyone can make a mistake. No big deal. 2001:2020:339:A818:1942:2790:ED08:C1A4 (talk) 22:58, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

[change source]
Hello! Thank you for creating Category:2010 establishments in Brazil. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created. Because categories are a way to group together similar articles, there is no need to create a new category for just one or two articles. If you think there might be more pages to add to the new category, please add them now. Thank you. MrMeAndMrMeTalk 05:54, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
Thanks
[change source]Sleeper agent. Yeah, the article you nominated did seem to have a 'strange ring to it'.--Also, the "wake-up" part, sounded too good to be true (since the spies/agents are called 'sleepers'. If that is a weak part of the article, then someone will maybe 'carry that stuff away', one day.).--Keep up the good work you do, in regard to QD.

Congrats on your successful RfA! The shirt's collected a bit of dust over the past couple of days mind, so you might have to use something other than the mop for that bit. --Ferien (talk | join TBA!) 11:00, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

- Your RFA was closed as successful by me. As a result, you are being given a crappy T-shirt and load of work. Jokes aside, thanks for you work so far, this role means community trusts you with significant responsibility. There were some comments in opposition which I hope you will take in consideration. All the best! BRP ever 11:03, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

page deletion
[change source]Hi Ternera I hope this message finds you well. Thank you for your ongoing work in managing page deletions. I noticed that the deletion discussion for this one has been due to close since 22 August, and as of today, 2 September, it appears to still be pending closure. Several editors have contributed valuable feedback, addressing concerns about notability and Simple English guidelines, and the discussion appears to lean toward keeping the article. It would be a shame to lose the effort many editors have put into improving it. Could you kindly review the discussion when you have a chance and consider closing it? I greatly appreciate your time and effort. Kellycrak88 (talk) 15:14, 2 September 2025 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Change filter/Mistakes – Problem with updating the article Bob Vylan
[change source]Hello, Ternera.
I want to add paragraphs about the most recent controversies in the Bob Vylan article, but is being blocked by a filter.
I suspect that the use of profanities is the reason for this filter.
I managed to add the last two paragraphs (while unlogged), which have no profanities, but a filter is blocking the first two paragraphs, which do have them.
Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 07:28, 17 September 2025 (UTC)
Hello, Ternera.
I found a Dutch news source in English, which directly quotes from the same De Telegraaf source (which is accessible only to subscribers), which I previously added at the end of the fourth paragraph, and I have added this source next to it.
I have rechecked the news source from The Independent to be sure, and every profanity and chant in the paragraph, is referenced in that source word for word.
There were two duplicates of the last two paragraphs, and I removed it.
Yours sincerely, Oratas (talk) 15:57, 18 September 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know. Ternera (talk) 15:57, 18 September 2025 (UTC)

RFD nomination on Ogunsan Ayodele
[change source]Hello Ternera, trust this meets you well.
I saw your deletion nomination for the article Ogunsan Ayodele. I’ve added some independent reliable sources and a comment at the AfD discussion which I believe show that the subject meets WP:GNG. Please feel free to have a look there. Thank you for your contributions and for helping improve the encyclopedia. Gracia04 (talk) 22:50, 23 September 2025 (UTC)
Categorizing
[change source]Thank you so much for categorizing articles that were in Category:Category needed. Are you familiar with default sorts? Some articles need to have one so that they appear in the right order in categories. Articles about people usually need them. You can read about it at Wikipedia:Categories#Sorting. Please be sure to include a default sort when it is needed. I added one to Stephen Moulton (soldier), so you can see an example. If you have any questions about this, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks again! -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:51, 24 September 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks so much for sharing this. I am taking note and will do my best to remember it in the future. Ternera (talk) 00:17, 25 September 2025 (UTC)
Tagged but not yet bagged
[change source]Cowaramup, Western Australia. Please consider not removing the two tags (tone, and promo).--Someone else might fix it (or even send it to RFD).--No person, can catch every kind of mistake that could be hiding in an article. (If you see a problem in the article, then fine. If you don't, then don't worry about it, cuz someone likely will - over, say, the next 12 months.) ~2025-27027-53 (talk) 20:01, 29 September 2025 (UTC) /~2025-27027-53 (talk) 20:01, 29 September 2025 (UTC)
Notice
[change source]
Hello. This message is being sent to tell you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is "Widespread misuse of A4". Thank you. --Ferien (talk | join TBA!) 22:55, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
Greeting, Mam/Sir,
I hope you are doing well. I just wanted to request you to undelete Gulam Rasool Dehlvi which you recently deleted per Wikipedia:SOFTDELETE.
Regards, ~2025-28293-38 (talk) 04:11, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @~2025-28293-38, please bring this to WP:DRV so an uninvolved admin can look at the request. Thank you. Ternera (talk) 13:33, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- Hello, The policy says, Soft deletion is a special kind of deletion which may be used after a page's deletion discussion. If a deletion discussion receives minimal participation, the page may be deleted.
However, in this case, the page can be restored for any reason on request
. I think that this is an uncontroversial undeletion and should be delt here instead of WP:DRV as I believe that DRV is the avenue to challenge the controversial deletion. Either way if you think I am wrong, feel free to elevate this to DRV. ~2025-28364-07 (talk) 15:40, 10 October 2025 (UTC)- @Auntof6; Requesting your valuable insight in this regard. Thanks. ~2025-28617-81 (talk) 06:40, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- @~2025-28364-07: You are correct. I have restored the page.
- @Ternera: Pages deleted by RFD when there has been no discussion are considered soft deletes, even if soft delete is not specified in the close. (You did specify it, however.) Any soft deleted page is restored on request. There can, of course, be another RFD if desired.
- @CountryANDWestern: pinging you in case you're interested, since you opened the RFD. -- Auntof6 (talk) 09:27, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- Appreciate the heads up. Will give them a bit to work on addressing the concerns I raised at the RFD. CountryANDWestern (talk) 09:39, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Auntof6; Thanks Mam for your valuable insights. Regards ~2025-28440-05 (talk) 12:11, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you. The policy said, "If your page was soft-deleted, you can request it be restored at Requests for undeletion" so I was hesitant to restore it from here. I appreciate the info though. Ternera (talk) 12:31, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- Hello, The policy says, Soft deletion is a special kind of deletion which may be used after a page's deletion discussion. If a deletion discussion receives minimal participation, the page may be deleted.

[change source]I think Fátima Ptacek was copied without simplifying, and should be deleted. ~2025-30960-43 (talk) 03:17, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

GA blurbs
[change source]Would it help if I create the rest of them? ~2025-34787-00 (talk) 17:51, 19 November 2025 (UTC)
- I was waiting for some additional feedback before working on it any further. I think it's fine if you want to continue it though! The main page sandbox may require some more changes, but the GA pages will probably be good to go. Ternera (talk) 18:00, 19 November 2025 (UTC)
Review
[change source]Dear @Ternera
Regarding the article by Kamil Akbari, I must tell you that he was a player of the Iranian national volleyball team and played in various categories, especially for adults. I request you to revive the article. Please کمیت (talk) 13:37, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- @کمیت, because it was deleted per WP:SOFTDELETE, we can reinstate the article if you request it. Let me know. Ternera (talk) 14:01, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- Yes please کمیت (talk) 15:02, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks @Ternera
- I will not forget your kindness.
- I would be happy to make any edits you have in mind so that I can benefit from your experiences.

[change source]Hello! I wanted to extend my deepest gratitude for your extraordinary work on the main page and for getting the GA the recognition they deserve!
