Hello, @Raydann! I came across Special:Diff/1350489774 and I wanted to ask what you meant by offwiki activity? The heist itself was of course offwiki, but I'm not sure how that's relevant to your edit. Thanks, and happy editing! guninvalid (talk) 07:02, 22 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove past AfC decline templates. These are left for future reviewers so that they can review your draft and check that any prior concerns have been addressed. Removing these templates can make it more difficult for your draft to be accepted. Thank you. I figure if I'm already here, I may as well give the warning template as well. guninvalid (talk) 07:03, 22 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there @guninvalid, thank you for your message. I was conducting a Wikipedia Workshop at an offline event (Event:Ukraine's Cultural Diplomacy Month 2026 in India), where I was showing participants how basic editing and citing sources works. Instead of doing demonstrations on a live article, I figured it would be better to use a draft. That's why, in this edit, I removed some citations to add them back later as part of demonstrating how to cite sources.

I removed the AfC tag because I didn't want the large decline template at the top of the page to distract or intimidate participants during the demonstration, many of whom were newcomers. This workshop, which I was leading, is what I referred to as "offwiki activity" in the edit summary. Hope that clarifies. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 18:09, 24 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the clarification. In practice, it would've been better to do this in a user sandbox page or a Wikipedia sandbox page. Either way though, thanks, and happy editing! guninvalid (talk) 18:49, 24 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly, I was a bit short on time and needed a suitable article to demonstrate the changes. In any case, I won't be resubmitting the draft through AfC. Thanks, and happy editing. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 19:01, 24 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - your article Humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons appears to have been generated using ChatGPT, and contains several telltale signs including UTM parameters from chatgpt.com. Please note that this is prohibited on Wikipedia. Gnomingstuff (talk) 19:36, 25 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
