A couple notes about talk pages

Hi there,

I noticed that in this diff, you reverted Lowercase Sigma bot on archving, but did not edit any of the actual archives that it created. This meant Archive 8 and Archive 9 had duplicates that I then reverted to fix. Talk page archive bots usually make 2 edits (talk, and archive) and you should generally fix both or neither.

Speaking of archiving, can I interest you in setting up one for this page? It feels almost too much to load already. I think a leaner talk page would help, especially if someone with a not great device is trying to reach you Soni (talk) 12:18, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi,

I'll keep that in mind when editing and figure out how to get the archiving started on my talk page.

Thanks, David O. Johnson (talk) 14:23, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Soni, I've added an archiver to my talk page; I hadn't realized it had gotten so lengthy. Thanks, David O. Johnson (talk) 18:50, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

On reverting talk pages

Hello! Are you planning on continuing to revert me. Because I can save you the trouble, now that I've remembered why I stopped contributing here. Ikmxx (talk) 04:49, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Regarding Talk:2024 United States presidential election

Hello, David O. Johnson. I just wanted to explain an edit I made to the talk page. Based on the talk page guidelines, specifically TALKHEADPOV, using the usernames of other users in the header of a discussion should be avoided outside of administrative noticeboards. You are free to revert if you disagree with me or my interpretation, but I felt it was best to explain here. --Super Goku V (talk) 05:58, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining. David O. Johnson (talk) 06:00, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

KlayCax

Hello. Have you decided if you are going to report KlayCax? If so, which place will you be making the report? Prcc27 (talk) 01:30, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi, sorry.

I've been busy with real life.

I think Doug Weller had recommended Arbitration Enforcement, IIRC. David O. Johnson (talk) 01:42, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

No worries. Yes, that is correct, he did recommend that. If you are still too busy, I can assist and make the report if you want me to. Prcc27 (talk) 22:17, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

I'd really appreciate it if you did. I imagine there are going to be quite a few diffs involved. David O. Johnson (talk) 22:36, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

Cleanup

Thanks so much for your never-ending cleanup; I'm sorry many of those issues are mine, as I'm having a heck of a time with intermittent internet service. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:52, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

No worries. It's pretty ridiculous that people are leaving links in edit summaries instead of putting them in the article, but at least they're doing that, right? David O. Johnson (talk) 21:53, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

There's a lot of ridiculous in there; for such an important issue, it's surprising there's so much poor editing! Thx again, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 04:25, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

It never ends, right? Have a good one. David O. Johnson (talk) 04:28, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

The category

This guy wasn't either. EpicAdventurer (talk) 04:22, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Maybe that category shouldn't be there. David O. Johnson (talk) 04:23, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Then you can change the name of the category or create a new category to make it more clear. EpicAdventurer (talk) 04:37, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

2024 DNC Spacing

MOS style question for you - I'm new to editing - why re-add that whitespace between sections when the rest of the article does not have a single space line added in MattFry7 (talk) 00:28, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Just curious! MattFry7 (talk) 03:51, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. I just thought that there shouldn't be whitespace between sections. I could be mistaken. David O. Johnson (talk) 04:06, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

VP debate tense

Hey. Did you mean to change the tense in your most recent edit? Prcc27 (talk) 06:09, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi,

Yes, that was intentional. That's the phrasing used in the title, though I admit it does sound unnatural, or at least unusual. David O. Johnson (talk) 06:15, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
