You can use "Email this user", but I will probably reply on your talk page, or the article talk page, as discussions should be open and on the record.

The Wiktionary definition of Broadcasted states the use is sometimes proscribed, so it should not be used. The word also appears on Wikipedia:Lists_of_common_misspellings/B

Broadcasted appears in some dictionaries, but others, e.g. Chambers state "Sorry, no entries for Broadcasted were found".
Broadcast appears in all dictionaries, and should be used as COMMONALITY - "Wikipedia tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English".

A May 2023 search for Broadcast gave over 234,000 uses, compared with a search for Broadcasted which gave just 99.
Of these, 16 are redirects to "Broadcast" articles, 14 refer to a 2015 Canadian TV award and 5 relate to a 1924 cartoon. The rest are in quotations.

here Qatarijournalist (talk) 11:12, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Qatarijournalist, I don't know why you came to me to make your first two edits, but I don't have enough time to create articles on subjects I am interested in.
Furthermore, I can't read Turkish or Arabic, so I couldn't really help even if I wanted to. - Best wishes - Arjayay (talk) 11:18, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

	The Special Barnstar
	Happy New Year, Arjayay! In 2024, other editors thanked you 2390 times using the thanks tool on the English Wikipedia. This made you the #1 most thanked Wikipedian in 2024. Congratulations and, well, thank you for all that you do for Wikipedia. Here's to 2025! Mz7 (talk) 19:17, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

that's awesome. well done, @Arjayay!! Sm8900 (talk) 20:17, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Mz7, and Sm8900 - That's actually the third time I have topped the list - does that disqualify me in the future? or do I get to keep it forever, like some sporting trophies?.
I remind myself of these when someone is telling me I am "the most hated editor on Wikipedia", or similar phrases, usually because I am reverting their deliberate errors or self-promotion.
Thanks again - and here's to next year ! - Arjayay (talk) 15:35, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I saw you changing my edit for "Nurburgring". Please don't. It's the correct information. If you look up Nurburgring Nordschieliefe lap record, it will say 5:19.546 set by Neel Jani. Please stop undoing my edits. 2603:8000:99F0:93A0:9932:FB79:1D30:444B (talk) 17:42, 2 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
