January 2026

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Tent Presbyterian Church when you modified the page, you introduced unknown parameters. Just because you specify |some_param=some_variable does not always mean that variable will display. The |some_param= must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you.

Hi Zackmann08, thanks for the heads-up. I'll make sure to use the 'Show preview' button next time to avoid any unknown parameters before saving my contribution. I appreciate you fixing it. ThatOneTechNerd (talk) 17:30, 7 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Tent Presbyterian Church copyedit

Hello, ThatOneTechNerd. This is a courtesy notice that the copy edit you requested for Tent Presbyterian Church at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page is now complete. All feedback welcome! I've added some {{cn}} tags. Not mandatory, but if you'd like independent assessment you can try WP:ASSESS/REQ. Nice work on the article! GoldRomean (talk) 01:02, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your courtesy notice regarding the copyedit. I appreciate both your contributions and your feedback! ThatOneTechNerd (talk) 02:07, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

No worries; happy to help! A super minor nitpick I forgot to mention: it might be helpful to link to or clarify the elder McClelland. But besides that, again, great work on this interesting read :). GoldRomean (talk) 02:23, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Your "Madagascar" article edit

@ThatOneTechNerd, I undid your revision of the "Madagascar" article because I had earlier placed a Guild of Copy Editors in Use notification at the top of it, as GOCE editors do when we're engaged in a requested copy edit of articles. The notification should help prevent exactly what happened in your case: that another editor comes along and makes an edit. It's really disruptive for us as we work on these requests.

Please wait till you no longer see the notification any more, then go ahead with any edits you'd like to make, including the one I undid. Augnablik (talk) 09:56, 26 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Augnablik, I truly apologize for my edit that likely disrupted your copyediting workflow. Thank you for reverting it as necessary. ThatOneTechNerd (talk) 18:44, 26 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
