I manually reverted your edits to the page on metaverse since your changes deleted well-sourced descriptions of various implementations in favor of fluffing up more recent developments that have largely been unrealized, incomplete, or otherwise heavily marketed with little substance. It gave undue weight to the (non)progress of Roblox and Fortnite metaverse developments, with a needless insertion of player count info and other marketing drivel. Your deletions also took out significant well-sourced criticisms of the metaverse, and added a somewhat extraneous mention of the Khronos Group. It's important to keep the scope of the article on the metaverse, and not virtual reality developments at large (they are not one and the same, metaverses have been around for decades without it). As such, I reverted your bold changes. Now for the good that I saw in your edits, there was some mention of the metaverse having conflicting descriptions and definitions, and that would be a helpful detail to flesh out in the article (since it has popularly become many different things). Have a nice day. Mewnst (talk) 01:07, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Agreed, you are deleting well-sourced links and "took out significant well-sourced criticisms of the metaverse" and are going overweight on unrealized/under-developed areas of the metaverse with extraneous mentions of specific projects with considerable "marketing drivel," as mentioned by Mewnst --ScholarCode (talk) 13:58, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Given that I haven't made any edits to the Metaverse article in over a month, and the changes I did make gained consensus via the talk page initially, I'm gonna guess this response is just reactionary to the warning I left on your talk page yesterday. Obviously we assume good faith on Wikipedia, but this reply encouraged me to look a little more closely at your edit history, and it seems like pretty much all of your edits are just Wikipedia:REFSPAM of your own articles which don't pass Wikipedia:Reliable sources. If you have problems with my edits to the Metaverse article, open a thread on the talk page.

I want to be clear that I disapprove of ScholarCode's invocation of our minor reference dispute. They do seem to be blatantly promoting some self-authored preprint. Mewnst (talk) 23:25, 22 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Metaverse you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period, or to track the GA review progress, via the assessment page. Thank you! UnidentifiedX (talk) 15:33, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article Metaverse you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Metaverse for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article.

If a user has added extra information with a credible source please do not just revert an edit just because it doesn't appeal to you. AtishT20 (talk) 12:14, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did so because the IP in question is relatively unambiguously WP:NOTHERE as far as Pakistan is concerned, with a talk page covered in warnings for vandalising articles about Pakistan. I removed the WP:WTW language and moved the source into the travel section to match other articles in the same series. BrigadierG (talk) 14:06, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Newimpartial, just as you did on Arkon's page it appears that you have added this warning not because the editor did anything wrong but because you disagreed with what appears to be a perfectly reasonable edit that you didn't like. As I noted before, the irony is that you don't have any of these awareness notices on your own talk page nor a self declared notice. Perhaps you should add the awareness template to your own talk page. Springee (talk) 12:19, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There are many ways to show one is aware of a DS area, one of which is participating in cases on that area at WP:ARE, as I have done.

The fact is, I place notices when new editors place controversial edits in THE GENSEX area whether I agree with those edits or not. For the current DS regime to work, this function is required (unfortunately); believe me, I would rather see an update to the regime. Hell, I placed a notice on the Talk page of one of the ArbCom members who !voted in the last changes to the sanction when their AWARENESS had expired.

Also, are you staying my edits for some reason? Newimpartial (talk) 12:29, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

About this revert. I oppose this change but don't want to do reverts of reverts without a discussion.

A software editor (short for editing company when talking about a business) develops and commercializes software, while a developer only develops the software and might distribute their work with external publishers/providers.

This distinction is rarely needed because "software company" is broad enough, but if the development role is to be mentioned, then editor is more appropriate given Mosaic Group activities. Freedatum (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thank you for reaching out to discuss.

I don't think "software editing" is the WP:COMMONNAME for this kind of activity. I'm a software engineer working at a startup and I've never heard the term used before. You might maintain software, you might develop software, you might publish, update, patch, release, create, or deprecate software, but never "edit" it (even if that is literally what you're doing to the source code). When I search google for "software editing companies" I mainly find lists of no-code tools and not software companies that focus on acquisitions + maintaining existing software.

What would change my view on this subject is evidence of mainstream outlets or popular, recent academic sources dividing commercial activities in this way. BrigadierG (talk) 13:43, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
