Hello, I'm Streetlampguy301. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Rogers Place, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Streetlampguy301 (talk) 20:24, 14 December 2025 (UTC)

Please don't change the format of dates, as you did to 2026 Heritage Classic. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based on either strong national ties to the topic or if the topic is tied to an armed forces. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please see this page.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Note. MOS:DATETIES does not apply to articles written in Canadian English. ShallowC (talk) 22:58, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

From my previous work on the Canada's national soccer teams, they use mdy format. HalfOfAnOrange (talk) 23:14, 18 December 2025 (UTC)

Hi HalfOfAnOrange, thanks for all the work you’re doing in relation to soccer. Glad someone is working on it. About dates: there’s no one format for dates in Canadian articles. Some Canadian editors like mdy, some like dmy. Once a date format is established for an article, it shouldn’t be changed without discussion on the Talk page. It’s just a matter of style. Best wishes!

Adding citations

When you add citations, please include the author's name too. Also, don't duplicate citations either, use <ref name> instead. Let me know if you have any questions. Assadzadeh (talk) 23:23, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

Another reminder that when you add citations, please include the author's name too. Assadzadeh (talk) 16:13, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for your work

Thanks for adding the matches and more detail to the various season articles - I've had other stuff going on and don't always know what part of America or Canada the matches are taking place in haha RossEvans19 (talk) 00:37, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

Common names of Mexican clubs

Hi HalfAnOrange, I noticed that you changed a bunch of club names in Leagues Cup matches info. Is there a list that has been agreed upon? Because for MLS teams it seems like we typically spell the whole club name out, for example Houston Dynamo FC, or Seattle Sounders FC. But for Mexican clubs, we shorten them to Querétaro or Puebla. I'm just trying to be consistent. Is there a generally agreed upon names used in football boxes? OblongBubbles (talk) 15:15, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

March 2026

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to change the title of a page by cutting its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Super_Bowl_LXIII. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Montreal Canadiens roster

Hey Orange,

I see that you frequently update various Montreal Canadiens wiki pages. It looks like there may be a slight typo under the roster section of the main page.

As you probably know, David Reinbacher wears #64 with the team and not #36 as listed.

Is this something you might be able to change as an extended confirmed user?

Deleting information

Hello, I'm Dragonhawk12. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at 2034 FIFA World Cup bids, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. tony 17:57, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

Sourcing

Thanks for your updates to Garden Grove chemical leak. As per several of your additions which were added without a source (1, 2), I'd like to remind you of guidelines on sourcing and original research. Anything you add to an article must be based on and a include a citation to what is said by a reliable source. Even if you know something is true (WP:NOTTRUTH), if no RS exists, it's probably not due for inclusion.

In the case of the article, secondary sources are preferred to establish that a fact is due for inclusion. Otherwise, nothing is stopping anyone from adding every single organization, group, or company who vaguely breathed in the general direction (WP:INDISCRIMINATE). Thanks.
