I am thinking even 2 articles for a category like Colombian cardiologists is too narrow. I think 5 is probably a better minimum size. I think anything under 3 is just so small it hinders more than it aides in navigation. Even then I think 5 is only justified when we have a large scheme. I think if the whole worldwide tree is under 200 we should absolutely not diffuse, and only if we can get at least 2 categories to 10 and at least 5 to 5.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:15, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, I would support merging for such small numbers in a category. Yet there was a keep !vote saying these categories would fill up! LibStar (talk) 23:37, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at United Arab Emirates at the 2000 Summer Olympics shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I only made 1 revert, that is hardly edit warring. LibStar (talk) 04:24, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Actually three reverts were made. [1] [2] [3]. It still counts as a revert even if the edit summary doesn’t explicitly say so. Frank Anchor 13:08, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Two of those were someone else. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 22:00, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Striking my previous comment due to my incorrectly blaming you for edits made by another user with a similar name. Sorry for the mix-up Frank Anchor 13:24, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LibStar Hi LibStar! I am from Albania and I have a request. I have seen that you have created and edited many articles related to politics, including relations of Albania with some countries. I want to ask you please can you create a page for Albania-South Africa relations on English Wiki, based on the content and the references you may know or may find on the internet, or based on the content and the references on Spanish Wiki: https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaciones_Albania-Sudáfrica But if you will create it, don't create it with the exact content that is used on this edition, use some content from this edition, and some content to be different and unique on the English edition. I am asking you to create the page for Albania-South Africa relations on English Wiki, since this page is available on some Wikipedia editions, but not yet on English Wiki. I would thank you so much if you will create it. Then add the page to Wikidata. Thanks DejanMati (talk) 23:58, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You can create it yourself. LibStar (talk) 09:28, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LibStar I am not sure if the content from one of the Wiki editions available for Albania-South Africa relations will be translated into English correctly, since I don't understand these languages. In addition, I am not sure what other content and references to use for this article to differ from the other articles. So please create only this article for me and I will not ask you for anything else. Since as far as I have seen, you have created some articles for the relations of Albania with some other countries, on English Wiki. Thanks DejanMati (talk) 17:51, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
