Hello. I already explained in my revert of this edit of yours to Polaris (Australian band), but I'd just like to point you to MOS:PLURALS. In British English (which Australian English largely follows the practices of), collective nouns like the names of groups are most often treated as plurals, so using "are" rather than "is", as if they were a singular entity (as in American English) is correct. Thanks. Ss112 06:58, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
Hi. Regarding your revert of my edit in the polycube article, the change is intended to be a revert of a previous edit. So there is no citation for me to include in my change.
As for the change i reverted, the paper that it referenced was calculating fixed polycubes (sequence A001931 in the OEIS), which is a separate enumeration to the ones mentioned in the wikipedia article. If you look through that OEIS page, the specific paper citation that i removed is mentioned. This sequence has also since been calculated up to n=20.
The two sequences mentioned in the wikipedia article (sequence A000162 in the OEIS) (sequence A038119 in the OEIS) have still only been calculated up to n=16. Please let me know if this isn't clear, and if anything further is needed to make this change. Thanks.

Can we put that there is a problem with the stream on wiki 70.53.190.233 (talk) 02:48, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for working to improve Wikipedia.
Regarding this revert, i've never seen a citation in a hatnote (and i think Wikipedia:Manual of Style says not to include citations in disambiguation), and i assumed the linked article would be citation enough. What do you say?

This edit of yours introduced many punctuation errors into the article. Does it do anything else? Michael Hardy (talk) 19:29, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
@NmWTfs85lXusaybq: "Getting the point" would involve someone saying what the point is. That was lacking. Notice that I contacted you precisely for the purpose of finding out what the point is. And comparing my edits here to personal attacks is absurd and seems hostile. Michael Hardy (talk) 21:39, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
As indicated, picking one passage out of a 243-page book to damn someone for something broadly held at a time when in fact their views for the era were clearly leaning in a progressive direction is absolutely both MS:UNDUE, and POV. No matter that it is being driven by righteousness. It's misplaced righteousness, and neither neutral "scholarship" nor representative of "neutrality" at WP. As such, I am restoring the edit as made. 19:00, 1 February 2024 (UTC) 2601:196:180:DC0:9453:CEC6:3BFC:A9BC (talk) 19:00, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
The rule not to use "City, Country" or "City, State, Country" for US cities applies solely to article titles (page names). It has no bearing on how US cities are referred to in the text of an article. --Lambiam 12:56, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
