I see that you check recent edits for appropriateness. I clicked through to see a set of the reversions that you had made for rejected submissions, and I agreed with all of what I saw you had done. It seemed apparent to me through the decisions you made and the comments that you left that you were giving human attention to the decisions you made rather than over-relying on tools and automation. Thanks for that, and thanks especially for the notes you leave. You are doing good review. Blue Rasberry (talk)01:39, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For answering a lot of edit requests and helping to keep the backlog at bay. For a while, I was taking care of that on my own, and it feels nice to see someone else get to it first every now and then! Actualcpscm (talk) 17:22, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Actualcpscm: thank you very much for the encouragement and for tackling those time consuming edit requests that tend to be pushed to the back of the queue. Keep up the great work! Best, M.Bitton (talk) 22:39, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A barnstar for your incredible work on the Horn of Africa relief map :)[edit]
Also, on a related note, I would love to do some more map work once I have more time in late summer. Do you have any good guides on how to get started on maps for Wikipedia? :) KluskaSlaska (talk) 16:21, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed in myself for not giving this to you sooner! You have been a great help creating maps for many articles, don't stop doing what you do! – Treetoes023 (talk) 22:09, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Due to unrelated drama I won't bore you with, I found myself looking at the history of this article, and uuh, thanks. A whole lot of POV-pushing was going on. When I have fewer tabs open I will try to remember to come back and give you a barnstar.
Hi, I'm new to Wikipedia. I'm wondering why putting the water percentage as "negligible" is an issue? This is inline with what is done on most other countries with verifiably low water percentages. I'm also just reverting what a previous edit did to what it was before? Is it due to Wikipedia having a different policy from in the past? (Just to clarify, I'm not upset, I just want to verify so that I know not to do it with other countries.) 99.64.160.215 (talk) 02:25, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's not an issue per se, but when you challenge some content and ask that it shouldn't be restored without a source, then it stands to reason that you don't replace it with original research (as someone could also argue that even the word "negligible" is WP:OR if it's not covered and sourced in the article's body).

That makes sense, I assume the existing countries that list "negligible" are simply there for historical reasons. (Seems like a bunch of the low water countries were just put as that even if they weren't that low water.) 99.64.160.215 (talk) 12:47, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
HI, when responding to edit requests, please change the answered parameter to yes, as it prevents the queue being filled with responded to requests. ThanksGeardona (talk to me?) 01:06, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
