This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.
Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:
  • I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply.

One editor wants to change his nationality from Georgia to Spanish and had many reasons. He listed it on his edit summary and on my talk page. I told him to ask you.

Also: Cong Wang will fight at UFC Macau. That Chinese source was right and is a reliable one as it has been around for 15 years, just to let you know. Also, as you may already know, the link was shared by autoupdateposter initially. Marty2Hotty (talk) 07:09, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Also Mauricio Ruffy is out of UFC 307 as per Nolan King's X. He works for mmajunkie. This should be good enough to add on the page. There is no real difference between using the post vs having a website use his post as a reference, right? ESPN also removed him from the card Marty2Hotty (talk) 12:22, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Marty2Hotty Good day.I just wanted to clarify that it's not about how long a source has been around, but rather whether fact-checking processes are in place. Regarding the Cong Wang bout, it has been officially announced by MMA Fighting. You can view it here:- [1].
Please note that social media sources are considered user-generated content, so they aren't typically deemed reliable or independent. When we refer to a source, we're talking about established media or publishers, not individuals on social media. So as for Maurício Ruffy, the information should be published in the usual sources and we will wait for that. Regarding Ilia Topuria, I’ll wait to hear back from the editor so I can address the nature of the issue and discuss it further.
Thank you for asking about my health. I am very healthy and fit and Iren syndrome is a visual issues and doest not impact my mental capacity (done a IQ test and I got the score of 128). - see here to understand how i see things if you are interested - [2] and luckily I have a mild case :). Thank you Marty, and enjoy the Paris card tmrw. Cassiopeia talk
It is difficult to communicate with you at times, because you seem to have trouble understanding the reason for comments. My point was the Chinese source was correct before MMAFighting announced it. The source is a reliable Chinese source but you are not familiar with it, so you said it was not reliable. My point is: the Mingyang vs Diaz and Wang Cong fight did end up being announced, and the source was reliable, but you did not comment on it.
Also, social media sources are from official sources as well. Many are official and verified. Your point about ESPN makes zero sense, because we are taking UFC Event bout orders straight from the ufc.com/events page. So, why is it not okay to take the bouts from the ESPN page? Keep in mind that once they are announced officially by the UFC, all the media does is "report" it and use the official sources as the main reason for the reporting. I have yet to receive a response to this.
Regarding Topuria, see the history of list of current fighters. I undid his edit, but he has his reasoning for putting Spanish.
As for your health and visual issues, please be careful when editing on Wikipedia because you occasionally have typos or spacing problems on fighter pages and the "list of current ufc fighters" page. Please double check the formatting before publishing. ThanksMarty2Hotty (talk) 23:52, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Marty2Hotty Again, I no health issue (very healthy and fit) and edit with typos or extra spacing is not a problem in Wikipedia nor violate any Wikipedia guidelines. Many editors actively engage in copy editing, focusing on grammar, punctuation, and formatting issues. It's a normal part of the collaborative editing process, and other editors will correct these issues if needed.
I understood your comments as always; however, you need to see the view point from Wikipedia guidelines. When working on Wikipedia, it's essential to strictly adhere to Wikipedia's guidelines and policies, regardless of personal views or common sense consideration.
Source Reliability and Fact-Checking: It does not matter if a source (Source A) published the information first and publishes correct information correctly don’t inherently make it reliable. What’s important is whether a robust fact-checking process is in place which I have mentioned to you many times. Reliability is not based solely on the accuracy of a single piece of information but on the consistency and process behind verifying facts. If a source "about us" page stating they "promote xxxx" that will be not a reliable source as the ethics and standards of journalism/source operates under a set of ethical guidelines that emphasize truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness, and public accountability. A primary source, like the UFC in this case, is not independent. While it may provide firsthand information, it may not have an objective fact-checking process, making it unreliable for citation in contexts like Wikipedia. ESPN’s connection with UFC could also compromise its independence, which further affects its reliability for UFC-related information.
Wikipedia requires independent, reliable secondary sources. Primary sources or those not independent (like those connected to the subject) are less preferred, even though these might be allowed in other contexts (like a college paper). I can explain to you the distinction between independent & reliable, not independent & reliable, independent & not reliable, and not independent & not reliable sources, primary source, secondary source, tertiary source and verifiability to you in length but it can be complicated, especially if you are you college student for it can be confusing because academic papers often allow primary sources, while Wikipedia focuses on secondary, independent sources. Just remember Wikipedia prioritizes the first category (independent and reliable) for verifying content which is the Wikipedia core policy and not accordingly to us what considered common sense or right things to do (example: If a subject has 4 sons but we can only find independent, reliable sources stating he has 2 sons, we will put 2 sons in the article - which might not make any common sense to anyone but this is Wikipedia verification policy).
On Topuria's Article: The article mentions both Georgian and Spanish in the lead section. I will wait for the editor to contact me. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 00:30, 27 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks but you didn't really answer why UFC events page is fine for updating the article and why the ESPN page bout info doesn't count. They both are official sources and we are following the UFC events page but the ESPN one has updates as well
It doesn't matter but to me the logic makes no sense.
Finally, Renato Moicano does go by "Money". You say we follow Sherdog for nicknames but for Moicano, we can use a ton of third party sources that indicate the nickname. If you refuse to put it in the nickname section, it should be put on the article somewhere with sources. Marty2Hotty (talk) 03:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

como salvaguardar codificadamente contenidos certificados --Ramirezcarriloluisdavid (talk) 01:27, 27 September 2024 (UTC

RamirezcarriloluisdavidGood day. Based on the translation, I understand you're asking about "how to encrypt certified content." Please note that Wikipedia is a platform where anyone can contribute and edit articles, provided they adhere to Wikipedia's guidelines. There is no encryption in place for any Wikipedia article, as the platform promotes open collaboration. However, if a page is frequently vandalized, we can request that the page be protected. A protected page limits who can edit it, often restricting it to more experienced editors for a certain period of time to prevent further vandalism.
Please move your user page content to the draft space, as it appears you are working on an article. You can find more information on how to do so HERE. Drafts are ideal for articles that are still being developed or need further review before publication. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask! Please communicate in English, as this is the language used for editing and discussing topics on English Wikipedia. I'm here to assist you. Stay safe and best.

<translate>You can comment on all open property proposals!</translate>

<translate>Did you know?

<translate>Development

  • Search: The haswbstatement search magic word has been improved by the Search Platform Team. Previously it was limited in which Properties were indexed for it. Going forward haswbstatement:P123 will work for all Properties, regardless of their datatype. This will allow you to filter search results for Items that have a statement with a specific Property. (Searching for a specific complete statement with haswbstatement:P123=xxx will still only work for specific datatypes.) For this to work all Items have to be reindexed and this will take up to 1 month.
  • Design system migration: We have migrated the Special:NewLexeme page from Wikit to Codex and are working on finishing the migration for the Query Builder.
  • EntitySchemas: We finished the investigation about how to support search for EntitySchemas by label or alias when linking to an EntitySchema in a statement. (phab:T362005)
  • Wikibase REST API: We worked on integrating language fallbacks into the API (phab:T371605)

<translate>Weekly Tasks

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Updates for editors

  • Readers of 42 more wikis can now use Dark Mode. If the option is not yet available for logged-out users of your wiki, this is likely because many templates do not yet display well in Dark Mode. Please use the night-mode-checker tool if you are interested in helping to reduce the number of issues. The recommendations page provides guidance on this. Dark Mode is enabled on additional wikis once per month.
  • Editors using the 2010 wikitext editor as their default can access features from the 2017 wikitext editor by adding ?veaction=editsource to the URL. If you would like to enable the 2017 wikitext editor as your default, it can be set in your preferences. [3]
  • For logged-out readers using the Vector 2022 skin, the "donate" link has been moved from a collapsible menu next to the content area into a more prominent top menu, next to "Create an account". This restores the link to the level of prominence it had in the Vector 2010 skin. Learn more about the changes related to donor experiences. [4]
  • The CampaignEvents extension provides tools for organizers to more easily manage events, communicate with participants, and promote their events on the wikis. The extension has been enabled on Arabic Wikipedia, Igbo Wikipedia, Swahili Wikipedia, and Meta-Wiki. Chinese Wikipedia has decided to enable the extension, and discussions on the extension are in progress on Spanish Wikipedia and on Wikidata. To learn how to enable the extension on your wiki, you can visit the CampaignEvents page on Meta-Wiki.
  • View all 22 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week.

Updates for technical contributors

  • Developers with an account on Wikitech-wiki should check if any action is required for their accounts. The wiki is being changed to use the single-user-login (SUL) system, and other configuration changes. This change will help reduce the overall complexity for the weekly software updates across all our wikis.

In depth

  • The server switch was completed successfully last week with a read-only time of only 2 minutes 46 seconds. This periodic process makes sure that engineers can switch data centers and keep all of the wikis available for readers, even if there are major technical issues. It also gives engineers a chance to do maintenance and upgrades on systems that normally run 24 hours a day, and often helps to reveal weaknesses in the infrastructure. The process involves dozens of software services and hundreds of hardware servers, and requires multiple teams working together. Work over the past few years has reduced the time from 17 minutes down to 2–3 minutes. [5]
