I want you to know that i got the gradient code and the idea for my signature from your old signature. I'm very happy with what I have and I hope you have a good day. Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 09:04, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
- Nice, I too got it from someone else. Have a good day! Frost 12:41, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
Damien Haas
[edit]Hi, I wanted to publish a Damien Haas page and noticed your notification stating that it was denied for a previous user due to unreliable sources. I am in the process of fixing those sources now and I wanted to know if you remembered what sources led it to be denied being published. Thank you and have a great day!!

- (talk page watcher): Twitter (now X), IMDb, YouTube. Also, the filmography section is most entirely unsourced. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 08:06, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! Now, I have read over the list of credible sources and their guidelines, but I do have a question pertaining to YouTube. If I were citing a video of an interview, is that still considered unreliable due to it coming from YouTube or is it acceptable. I had a hard time understanding if that met the guidelines or not. YouTube is the only source for this interview, by the way. BlueSpikez 08:13, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- For the purpose of establishing notability, which is required to see if an article should be on Wikipedia, a YouTube interview isn't acceptable. For verifying claims, the reliability is based on who uploaded the video (WP:RSPYT). Frost 10:25, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- It is for verifying claims. The channel that uploaded the video is Anthony Padilla as part of his "I Spent a Day With" series. I would be using the video as a source for Damien's claim on his autism diagnosis. Here is a link to the video at the timestamp that I am citing for this claim: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLslqDpPT-g&t=546s BlueSpikez 00:24, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
- It should be okay, as long as WP:PRIMARY is followed strictly. Mentioning the exact words and the timestamp in the citation might be useful. Happy editing. Frost 05:31, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

Involved RM close
[edit]Hi. I'm contacting you because you relisted Talk:Hyak Motorsports#Requested move 22 November 2024 on the 5th. An involved user closed the discussion today and moved the page and I was wondering if you could revert it and allow for an uninvolved user to close. TIA. ―"Ghost of Dan Gurney" (hihi) 16:55, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
- It looks like the user has self-reverted their close. Frost 17:21, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
