Can this be added in, this is what happened, this is about Alfalfa and Spanky being dressed as Ballerinas.

At the ballet rehearsal, Alfalfa And Spanky Have to Transform Into Ballerinas, so they enter the costume room and slip on a pair of elasticated, frilly knickers and a bra, a lycra pink leotard and a pair of pink tights, finally a pretty pink tutu, after they slip their feet into a pair of ballet pumps. They quickly put on a wig before making themselves look pretty by applying some makeup, Alfalfa and Spanky are very uncomfortable in their tight ballet costumes. They exit the costume room and are met by Butch and Woim, they act very girly in order to evade them. They attempt to get out of their uncomfortable ballerina costumes by entering another room but are met by a group of girls, the boys chat to the girls and pretend they are in the rehearsal, the boys are very nervous, the ballet mistress enters the room and ushers everyone on stage, the boys stand with the rest of the girls on stage as they all start to dance, Spanky puts a slimy frog in Alfalfa's tutu, Alfalfa squirms in discomfort as he struggles to dance, the rehearsal ends up in disaster and the boys run of stage, Alfalfa immediately gets out of his costume while Spanky still dressed as a girl, the ballet mistress throws both of them out, Butch and Woim is stood outside the building, Alfalfa runs off as Spanky Acts all girly to get past them, Spanky looses his wig and runs off, he manages to loose the bullies by running into a boys club, but is thrown out as he is dressed as a girl. Alfalfa meanwhile is found by the bullies and they chase him into a hotel and Alfalfa runs through the corridors and manages the loose Butch and Woim before jumping into a swimming pool, but ends up loosing his knickers and is laughted at by Darla and Waldo who are enjoying drinks in the hot tub.

Please look though WP:Edit Requests - the appropriate process to make an edit request is on the talk page Talk:The Little Rascals (film). Before doing that, you need to famliarize yourself with WP:NOTPLOT and MOS:PLOT, then perhaps go through Edit Request Wizard -- MacAddct1984 ^{(talk | contribs)} 21:27, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for getting back to me,

the context I have added is a good summary of the plot in the film, that is what happened. If you want you could even change some bits and pieces that you feel are accurate, If I am honest I may have wrote some things to suit myself so I could share my experience, as when I was younger myself and my friend had the same experience as Spanky and Alfalfa, I had to dress up as a ballerina and do a ballet rehearsal with a group of girls, we both looked ridiculous, I can tell you it is very uncomfortable to wear girls clothes, when we were on stage, my friend took my wig off me and everyone was staring at me and bursted out laughing, it was a very embarrassing moment for me, all my friends and everyone I knew was there,

hopefully you will not find my experience too funny.

let me know what you think about the comments I wrote in the plot, just some feedback please. Oliver Savell (talk) 21:59, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In Macaddct1984's defense, I'd like to remind you that your "personal experiences" mean nothing to the article, and taking that information to the talk page is in serious violation of WP:NOTAFORUM. 100.8.243.246 (talk) 20:20, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was only sharing my experience about the time I had to dress up as a girl, I know you that you are probably having a good laugh about that, it was very uncomfortable having to wear a pink lycra leotard, tights and a pink tutu.

I would like to have my article posted without it being deleted everytime I post it. I understand it is a personal experience, but I only posted it as I had the same experience as Spanky and Alfalfa had. Oliver Savell (talk) 21:05, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It does not help the article at all. It has to stay deleted, regardless of your "experiences" (we see no evidence, hence why we're not laughing). WP:NOTAFORUM exists for a reason. 100.8.243.246 (talk) 21:11, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spanky and Alfalfa had to dress up as Ballerinas and pretended to be girls in the Ballet Rehearsal, so did I and and that is why I posted the article in the first place so that I could let people know about my experience. Oliver Savell (talk) 21:21, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You can make your case for why your actions don't constitute disruptive editing over on your ANI, if you wish -- MacAddct1984 ^{(talk | contribs)} 21:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My article is not disruptive, I shouldn't have to make a case, please can I have your honest opinion/comments on my experience that I wrote. Oliver Savell (talk) 22:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Our opinions mean nothing, because your "experience" is meaningless to the article and forbidden in the talk page. We know disruptive edits when we see them, especially when you repeat the offense. 100.8.243.246 (talk) 00:58, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hope you're well. Again, thanks for pix for Jersey City Free Public Library. Was wondering if you felt inclined, had time, and were "uptown" JC near Journal Square and or the Bergen/Lincoln Park section if you's take some pix? One for Peter Stuyvesant Monument on Sip. And for List of Art Deco architecture in New Jersey#Jersey City the buildings buildings along Bergen Avenue near Bergen Square. 789 (Bergen Theater, later Pix Theater), 830 (Provident Bank Headquarters, now Hudson County), 872 (Independent Order of Odd Fellows, 1920),875, 880 , 885, 910, 911, 918, 920 (Hurwitz Building), 922. Hurwitz Building is the real gem! The other real Art Deco gem in 61 Gifford Avenue between the Blvd and Bergen, though there are some some fine buildings scattered thru-out the city. Greatly appreciated. Djflem (talk) 06:41, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure I'd be happy to! I'll add it to my to-do list and hope for some nice weather in the near future -- MacAddct1984 ^{(talk | contribs)} 13:03, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks. And oops it's 61 Duncan (the big pre-war on the corner is called The Duncan, but many call it The Hague, because Hague - Hudson County Dem political machine boss for decades - lived there. By the way your Lincoln the Mystic pix are a major upgrade. Djflem (talk) 15:36, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mac, I don't understand why our edit was removed. Could you clarify? Bart Gadeyne (talk) 13:44, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Bart Gadeyne: Your link was removed because it didn't conform to Wikipedia's policy on external links.

hi, i just add a single external link and the link is proper relavent Parkerlaurabloger (talk) 12:28, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Parkerlaurabloger:, much like the conversation above this one, external links must conform to Wikipedia's policy concerning external links.

I'm really interested in the history of the FDNY, and this interest has led me into an interest in the volunteer fire department that existed previous to 1865. There's only a brief mention of that in the New York City Fire Department article, and I can't find an article on the volunteer department, so in good faith I made a mention of it. My edit would've been better added to an article on the volunteer department. Maybe I'll start one someday. Anyway, no offense taken! Secret Egypt 2 (talk) 22:27, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No worries! It's not entirely irrelevant, but it may be more appropriate to mention in the (pre)history section of the article, citing the non-fiction book. Also, the 1865–1898 section is entirely unsourced, if you want to work on improving that. -- MacAddct1984 ^{(talk | contribs)} 11:25, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Aha! Those sound like some things I'll enjoy doing when I can spare more than a moment. I appreciate your feedback and hints. Secret Egypt 2 (talk) 20:18, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Completely fabricated and clearly an attempt to skew history. There is no evidence of an colony in Eritrea or Ethiopia and suggesting they were responsible for the languages and cultures is not factual or based on evidence. The only evidence being that they had a relationship of trade. I notice there is a trend on wikipedia to distort the history of the two. 51.190.236.134 (talk) 15:05, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your knowledge on the topic, of which I have none, but your edit was reverted simply because you blanked an entire section that had citations without even providing an edit summary. I don't think that section is very well presented merely from a manual of style context, Wikipedia is not an essay with points and conclusions, but big content changes like you're proposing should be discussed on the article's talk page. -- MacAddct1984 ^{(talk | contribs)} 15:22, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Macaddct1984,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day.

Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:

• You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
• Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
• To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.
