I see that on 24th August 2022 you edited theinfluences parameter forSteven Pinker. I don't suppose they bothered to tell you, but as part of a massive purge involving at least 3000 articles theinfluences andinfluenced parameters were removed by PrimeBot in the last few days. If you have any thoughts about this there is a discussion athttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Infobox_scientist#Influences/influenced_--_abuse_of_powerAthel cb (talk)12:57, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure I know what the point is of making it smaller, since what dictates width in that infobox is the 26 innings of line score and at least from my perspective, making it smaller just increases whitespace and makes it harder to read.Wehwalt (talk)19:24, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GuardianH, we know each other from higher-ed stuff. You really know your way around Wikipedia. I am no newcomer, myself, with more than 10,000 edits in German and English, but I do have questions from time to time. Mainly it has to do with conflict resolution, the quest for better referencing, puff reduction and so on. Could you take me on as a mentee for these areas? --Melchior2006 (talk)07:57, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi GuardianH, I wanted to ask how you deal with unfounded or erroneous comments on your talk page. I noticed that you deleted one recently (I agreed completely with that decision). Do you feel obliged to archive stuff from your talk page? Then there is the "junk mail" one gets from time to time; hardly anyone could argue for archiving that, or what do you say? Thx. --Melchior2006 (talk)11:00, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hey GuardianH, I stumbled upon your user page a short while ago — forgive me if it sounds weird, but I think all the stuff you’ve done is just incredible. I was also an Asian-American high schooler from Massachusetts just a short while ago (played a bit of jazz at NEC and All States here too, might be doxxing myself idk lol, maybe I know you?) and I’ve always really liked history (not as rigorous as you, I think) but most of my edits are just me carrying over DOY stuff from other language DOY pages (like Japanese or Chinese) because I don’t feel like I have enough time in college to pore over academic texts. I’d love to hear what your reading/writing process is for Wikipedia as a presumably busy student so I can do more (right now I feel more like I’m filling holes as I see them instead of spending time researching topics and making new pages about them).
P.S. Also, if you end up attending Harvard or MIT I’d love to meet up sometime 😎Marcustcii (talk)14:47, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think all the stuff you’ve done is just incredible– I think you are giving me too much credit!
processif you're still interested, but I think there really are much better writers than myself on here that could offer greater insight.GuardianH (talk)19:18, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi GuardianH! I have a little question: Can I set parameters somewhere to exclude bot changes from my watchlist? --Melchior2006 (talk)12:55, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GuardianH, what an impressive userpage you've got- you must have a very broad reading list with the topic interests you display and have made contributions to.
I want to thank you not only for your "thanks" on my recent edits (boy howdy, removing that Stossel LISTSPAM was actually quite a feat on the mobile app, which I learned doesn't scroll when you "drag-highlight," lol. I was in too deep to give up, though), but for all the work you do here. As I just posted on ElKevbo's page, the one positive for me in bumping into the disruptive editing from Summerdays1 has been uncovering contributors like yourselves, who are protecting the encyclopedia from sometimes-subtle BOOSTERISM in areas with higher-than-usual "drive-by" edits. You are awesome, and your tireless work is appreciated.
I am a habitual copyeditor (I find it so relaxing, which I recognize might be weird lol) so if you ever come across articles which need text clean-up or just review, and don't have the time or inclination yourself, feel free to tag me in to have a look! Thanks again and happy editing :-D ~Chelsea akaChiselinccc (talk)17:22, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On30 October 2024,Did you know was updated with a fact from the articleMichael Sugrue, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was... thatMichael Sugrue became an "internet phenomenon" during theCOVID-19 pandemic for his lectures on YouTube, recorded in 1992, that covered "the last 3,000 years of Western intellectual history"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen atTemplate:Did you know nominations/Michael Sugrue. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page(here's how,Michael Sugrue), and the hook may be added tothe statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on theDid you know talk page.

Hi GuardianH, thank you for your contributions in the AfD discussion - you have eloquently summarised some of the main concerns I wanted to put directly in the discussion so have saved me some considerable effort. I am perplexed that sources which mention the position in mere passing are suddenly being used to argue forWP:N. Hopefully more sense enters into the discussion and upholdWP:POLICY. Regardless of your age or background, your contributions are appreciated.EmyRussell (talk)17:31, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, following up onthis edit, I don't understand howMOS:EGG is relevant here. The link "Yale Law School" goes directly toYale Law School, so it doesn't easter egg anything. Arguablyyour previous edit created the easter egg. Your current edit makes it seem like the subject got a master of laws degree at Yale University itself, not the law school (which in some context with other schools could mean the school did not yet have an independent law school, which would not be accurate in Yale's case). Can you please clarify your reasoning? --Engineerchange (talk)22:20, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! I'm reaching out because I saw that last year, you did some helpful cleanup to theSidley Austin article. I posted someCOI edit requests to that article's talk page a few months ago, and you're clearly an expert in this space, so figured I'd reach out in case you have a few minutes to take a look. I also welcome any feedback you're willing to share on formatting or wording of my requests to make them easier to review! Thanks for your time and all your contributions to Wiki.Mary Gaulke (talk)02:03, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Per our prior discussion, I finally got a chance to put together a notable alumni section forHotchkiss School. I think one sentence on four notable alumni in the lead complies withWP:UNDUE now. Happy to discuss if you have any concerns.Namelessposter (talk)01:48, 22 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
