March 2017 WikiCup newsletter

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

And so ends the first round of the competition, with 4 points required to qualify for round 2. It would have been 5 points, but when a late entrant was permitted to join the contest in February, a promise was made that his inclusion would not result in the exclusion of any other competitor. To achieve this, the six entrants that had the lowest positive score of 4 points have been added to the 64 people who otherwise would have qualified. As a result, some of the groups have nine contestants rather than eight. Our top four scorers in round 1 were:

Cas Liber, last year's winner, led the field with two featured articles on birds and a total score of 674.
Iry-Hor, a WikiCup newcomer, came next with a featured article, a good article and a tally of 282 bonus points for a score of 517. All these points came from the article Nyuserre Ini, an Ancient Egyptian pharaoh,
1989, another WikiCup newcomer, was in joint third place at 240. 1989 has claimed points for two featured lists and one good article relating to anime and comedy series, all of which were awarded bonus points.
Peacemaker67 shared third place with five good articles and thirteen good article reviews, mostly on naval vessels. He is also new to the competition.

The largest number of DYKs have been submitted by Vivvt and The C of E, who each claimed for seven, and MBlaze Lightning achieved eight articles at ITN. Carbrera and Peacemaker67 each claimed for five GAs and Krishna Chaitanya Velaga was well out in front for GARs, having reviewed 32. No featured pictures, featured topics or good topics yet, but we have achieved three featured articles and a splendid total of fifty good articles.

So, on to the second round. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 1 but before the start of round 2 can be claimed in round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points equally.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Green Light (Lorde song)

Latest comment: 7 years ago5 comments2 people in discussion

Extended content
It appears you have created Draft:Green Light (Lorde song), whereas I had previously expressed a concern on your talk page (about Drake's songs, as far as I recall; Fake Love being one), with you saying you would be more mindful of it in future, over your apparent unwillingness to overwrite a redirect someone else created, but to create it in draftspace then "claim" it for yourself. You know quite well Green Light (Lorde song) exists, and yet you're still doing it, obviously wanting my redirect to be overwritten with your content when the time comes. You expect others to create content over most of the redirects you create, so why do you avoid doing it yourself? I wouldn't think you'd be too happy if every user did this to an album or song page you had redirected, so I don't know why you do it to things you have an interest in that I created before you. Also, please don't tell me this is about "incubating" the article until it gets notable enough (and that that's why you didn't yet post it over the redirect), because when it does, you will absolutely request to overwrite the redirect. Trying to assume good faith here, Another Believer, but you have gone and done what you pretty much said you wouldn't again do. Ss 112 00:59, 3 March 2017 (UTC) @Ss112: I didn't go the draft route to "override" your redirect, but since you're concerned about getting credit for creating the redirect, I'll just copy the draft content to your redirect in main space. I don't care about the credit, I just assumed the article would be nominated for deletion so I was stalling. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:30, 3 March 2017 (UTC) AB, I think you know how it works by now. An administrator will see the draft history then merge the two as they see fit, so you've basically ensured it will overwrite the redirect history because it is "more complex" and notable than someone's redirect. I also don't enjoy being criticised for apparently being concerned about "getting credit", especially when considering you redirect tonnes of pages and obviously want the "credit" for those, otherwise why create them? Sure, we can all say "I do it to be helpful and redirect readers to the album or artist page", but is that really all it is? I mean, I don't know how I'm taking credit anyway. I'm not using an off-Wiki counter to go "look at all these articles I started" (but didn't actually create the content for) or claim them for myself—I just don't see the point of overwriting redirects. Ss 112 01:36, 3 March 2017 (UTC) (edit conflict) I create redirects, stubs, and drafts all the time, Ss112. I'm sorry if you feel some of them conflict with your edits, but I'm not singling you out in any way or attempting to steal credit for being a page's original author. Yes, I do track pages I'm credited for starting, but that's because I'm interested in article assessment, editing trends, and tracking which articles have been promoted to quality status at English Wikipedia and Wikipedias of other languages. And no, I wouldn't be offended if someone's draft overrode one of my redirects. Creating a redirect is not something I take a ton of credit for creating. You said, "you will absolutely request to overwrite the redirect". That's actually something I do rarely, so I find that unfair to say. I'll think you'll find that I've improved, categorized, and added talk page banners to many pages you've created, and overrode few. I don't mean to offend you, and I will try to remain aware of your edits. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:39, 3 March 2017 (UTC) I wrote the above comments before reading your reply, Ss112. I think we may have different reasons for creating redirects. I'm less concerned about credit, so again, I will try to watch your edits carefully and avoid overriding. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:44, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

4th GA Cup - The Final

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016 GA Cup - Final

Hello, GA Cup competitors!

Sunday, February 26 saw the end of Round 3. Shearonink finished in first with 616 points, which is more than the point totals for all the other competitors combined! In second place, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga earned an impressive 152 points, followed by Sturmvogel_66 in third with 111 points. Chris troutman and Kees08 each received a wild-card and were able to advance to the Final Round. There was a major error on the part of the judges, and initially, 8 users were advanced instead of 5. This has been corrected, and we sincerely apologize for this confusion.

In Round 3, 71 reviews were completed! At the beginning of this GA Cup, the longest wait was over 7 months; at the end of Round 3, the longest wait is still holding steady at a little over 6 months, the same as for the previous round. By the end of all three Rounds, the total number of nominations increased slightly - this suggests that users are more willing to nominate, knowing that their articles will be reviewed. We hope to see all remaining users fighting it out in the Final so we can keep tackling the backlog.

In the Final Round, the user with the highest score will be the winner. The Final has already started and will end on March 31st at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Finals and the pools can be found here.

Good luck and have fun!

Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, and MrWooHoo.

To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

Nomination of I'm Born to Run for deletion

Latest comment: 7 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Resolved

This is a courtesy message to notify you that the article I'm Born to Run is being considered for deletion. All editors, including you, are welcome to discuss this at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/I'm Born to Run until a consensus is reached. The nomination and discussion are expected to focus on the quality of evidence and the policies and guidelines which are of concern. Please be aware that there are a number of arguments to avoid in a deletion discussion.

Users are encouraged to edit the article during the discussion, particularly in ways that address the concerns raised in that discussion. However, please do not attempt to remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article— doing so may be considered an act of bad faith and will not halt the deletion process. Thank you! Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:22, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

@Onel5969: There's not need for a deletion discussion. Just redirect the page to the album article. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:47, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi Another Believer - I agree with you wholeheartedly, however, when other editors continue to revert the redirect, I feel there is a need to develop consensus for either the article to stay, become a redirect, or to be deleted totally (which I think would be wrong, but if that were the consensus). The redirect has been reverted about 4 times over the past 9 months, so I felt a community discussion was warranted. If the consensus is for a redirect, than at least it gives an editor an opportunity to ask for pp. Does that make sense? Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:23, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

@Onel5969: I do see what you mean, but I'm not sure this discussion, which will likely result in a merge vote, will prevent editors from expanding the redirect again in the future. Perhaps I'll be proven wrong! Thanks for responding. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:30, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Do you want to work on it with me? — Calvin999 17:52, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

@Calvin999: Possibly? I can't promise dedicating too much time to the article, since I'm working on quite a few others at the moment. I am definitely glad to see you making improvements, though -- hopefully this will be promoted to Good article status at some point. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 17:54, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Okay, well if you want to interject feel free. — Calvin999 17:55, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

There's literally about 4 reviews for the song, how do you think that stands with notability considering it's long Hot 100 chart trajectory and it being number-one on the Dance chart? — Calvin999 18:03, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Surely there is other commentary that can be found in album reviews. Yes, I realize album reviews alone don't justify song notability, but that doesn't mean commentary can't be included in a "Critical reception" section. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:08, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

And thanks for the invite! I might take a look at the article when I have more time, but fully support your expansion work in the meantime. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:09, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

I mean because it's a deluxe track, most album reviews don't mention it. I've put some on the talk page for those which do. — Calvin999 18:10, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Ah, I see what you mean. I forgot this song did not appear on the album's standard version. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:11, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Don't thank me just yet. I'm wondering if a better move would be to merge the existing content into a section of Cristiano Ronaldo International Airport. p b p 15:29, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

The Unipiper

Latest comment: 7 years ago5 comments2 people in discussion

I'd like to hear more about why you moved it away from 'the'. The usage of the stage name seems to mirror The Beatles or The Beach Boys, with the initial 'The' as part of the formal name. A quick perusal through the RS'es and his official website seems to support this, although it's certainly not unanimous. Jclemens (talk) 04:29, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

@Jclemens: Alright, I disagree, and I was bold in moving the page but feel free to revert if you feel strongly that "the" should be included in the title. I wouldn't think to search "The Unipiper" to learn more about his person. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 07:46, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Well, either way, with redirects it's not a big deal, just a stylistic matter over where the topic 'rests'. There's another editor who's been working on the article as well--I'll ping him to see what he thinks. Jclemens (talk) 08:59, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

@Jclemens: Sure, always great to bring more folks into the conversation. IMO, some sources do say "The Unipiper", but others are just "the Unipiper" or "Unipiper", so I don't see the "The" being used in the same way "The" always appears in "The Beatles", for example. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:26, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Whoops, and then I got busy and forgot to follow up on this @Nicholasbeatty:, what do you think of this question? Jclemens (talk) 04:42, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Chris Has Got a Date, Date, Date, Date, Date

Hello, Another Believer,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Chris Has Got a Date, Date, Date, Date, Date should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Has Got a Date, Date, Date, Date, Date .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Eddie Blick (talk) 23:22, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

@Teblick: Thanks for the heads up. There is no reason to delete a page that is a possible search term, so redirecting is more appropriate if there is not enough coverage to justify a standalone article. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 23:28, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Inside Family Guy

Hello, Another Believer,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Inside Family Guy should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Inside Family Guy .

Thanks,

Eddie Blick (talk) 23:24, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

I don't understand your statement, "There is no reason to delete a page that is a possible search term." It seems to me that any name or expression is a possible search term. Therefore, applying the quoted sentence would mean that no page would ever be deleted. Perhaps you are correct about the advisability of a redirect, but I didn't see that option in the page curation tools. Eddie Blick (talk) 03:02, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

@Teblick: What I mean to say is that both redirects serve a purpose by redirecting readers to Family Guy (season 15). We don't delete redirects that serve a purpose. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 03:16, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

I appreciate the clarification. I'm still learning about the finer points of notability, so I appreciate your feedback. Eddie Blick (talk) 12:54, 6 April 2017 (UTC)

4th GA Cup - Wrap Up

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016 GA Cup - Wrap Up

Hello, GA Cup competitors!

Saturday, April 1 concluded the 2016-2017 GA Cup. 64 reviews were completed by our finalists. Although the backlog increased by 42 over the reviewing period instead of declining, the increase suggests that the contest is encouraging editors to nominate articles for review.

Congratulations to Shearonink, who is the winner of the Cup, finishing with 672 points! Once again, just as in last round, this is more than the point totals for all the other competitors combined! It was a close race for second place between Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, who achieved 164 points, and Sturmvogel_66, who earned 150. Though Sturmvogel_66 reviewed one more article than Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga managed to earn 14 points more due to reviewing older articles. Our two wildcard competitors, Kees08 and Chris troutman, came in fourth and fifth, respectively.

There were some bumps in the competition this time: The sign-up deadline and the first round were both extended due to fewer competitors signing up then was planned for. And there were delays in tallying points and getting out the newsletter. The judges apologize for this latter difficulty. Lastly, mid-way through the competition we bid farewell to Zwerg Nase, who stepped down from their position as judge due to other commitments. Information about the Final can be found here.

Thank you to all of our competitors, and congrats to our winners!

Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, and MrWooHoo.

Regarding Lust for Life (Lana Del Rey song)

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Resolved

You recognize that, even though the song's registration has been covered by media in speculation of Del Rey's next album, it's not notable and is a rumor? This, to me, brings up a bigger issue, because would we do the same and redirect the hundred or so unreleased songs she has, particularly those written in the Born to Die sessions? I just wanted to know your thought process in this situation, because it could be helpful to me. --Aleccat 13:46, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

@Aleccat: Yes, I understand. But I also recognize that people search for information on Wikipedia, and we should be able to redirect them to the closest notable topic. If there are a hundred unreleased, but confirmed, songs associated with Born to Die, perhaps there should be a list of unreleased songs recorded by Lana Del Rey. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 14:02, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Marking this section as resolved -- the song has already premiered so the redirect is entirely appropriate. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 20:02, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

Dear Believer, you might have gotten the impression that I either have a grudge against you or against the subjects you are editing: it's absolutely not the case. I do believe that your expansion of the climate march article is making it worse, not better: it now reads like a giant advertisement, thus reinforcing the WP:PROMO rationale that was levied against it at the first AfD. I just picked a sentence at random: The demonstration in Florence, Alabama is being sponsored by the the Shoals Environmental Alliance and Indivisible Northwest Alabama, and will take place outside the Lauderdale County Courthouse. The rally will feature guess speakers and music by Mitch Mann and the Mojo Mixers, and is reportedly the only climate march being organized in the U.S. states of Alabama, Georgia, or Mississippi. So we just list the meeting place, the entertainers, and the sponsors. Frankly, do you think this is encyclopedic? I'm sad to see us getting into a fight over this, because I've seen your enthusiasm put to better use for other articles. Obviously I won't change your mind any more than you'll change mine, but I just wanted to reach out personally. Happy editing! — JFG ^talk 00:23, 22 April 2017 (UTC) @JFG: Thanks for stopping by (truly). No, I wasn't under the impression you had a grudge against me. I did question if you held more conservative political views, but I did not feel the need to scrutinize your editing history to see if bias or prejudice were at play. I just think we have different ideas of what content belongs at Wikipedia, and that's fine. Sometimes I wish I had more time to develop content, but I certainly respect the guidelines we've established as a community and I'm almost never personally offended by other editors. I'm sorry you feel the article reads like an advertisement. The example text you provided is very similar to the content at Not My Presidents Day, which User:Megalibrarygirl and I promoted to Good article status together. If you read the article, you'll see a neutral overview of the many activities associated with the protest, including event locations, sponsors, organizers, venues, guest speakers, planning and promotion, attendance figures, etc. I don't see anything wrong with describing planned events scheduled to take place next weekend, then changing the tense of content or adding/removing the details as needed following April 29. The Not My Presidents Day article underwent a lot of scrutiny, and I felt like I had to clear many bureaucratic, unnecessary hurdles just to justify the existence of a topic that, IMO, was clearly notable. In the end, Wikipedia added a new Good article to its collection of quality encyclopedia articles, but I felt like I was combating resistance the entire way, and I don't think that's what editing Wikipedia should be like. Thanks again for reaching out. We're not fighting, we're just disagreeing, and that's quite alright. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:49, 22 April 2017 (UTC) Appreciate your response, and agree to disagree, although there are certainly plenty of places we do agree. — JFG ^talk 08:35, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

I just think we have different ideas of what content belongs at Wikipedia, and that's fine. Sometimes I wish I had more time to develop content, but I certainly respect the guidelines we've established as a community and I'm almost never personally offended by other editors.

I'm sorry you feel the article reads like an advertisement. The example text you provided is very similar to the content at Not My Presidents Day, which User:Megalibrarygirl and I promoted to Good article status together. If you read the article, you'll see a neutral overview of the many activities associated with the protest, including event locations, sponsors, organizers, venues, guest speakers, planning and promotion, attendance figures, etc. I don't see anything wrong with describing planned events scheduled to take place next weekend, then changing the tense of content or adding/removing the details as needed following April 29.

The Not My Presidents Day article underwent a lot of scrutiny, and I felt like I had to clear many bureaucratic, unnecessary hurdles just to justify the existence of a topic that, IMO, was clearly notable. In the end, Wikipedia added a new Good article to its collection of quality encyclopedia articles, but I felt like I was combating resistance the entire way, and I don't think that's what editing Wikipedia should be like. Thanks again for reaching out. We're not fighting, we're just disagreeing, and that's quite alright. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:49, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

Appreciate your response, and agree to disagree, although there are certainly plenty of places we do agree.

(@Bri: too) No action required from you, but thought you might find this amusing. A zealous character on Es.wp has filed an ANI complaint alleging that I'm a connected-contributor somehow tied to the cannabis industry, and as evidence submits a bunch of mirrored WP content on sites that are full of "V!@Gr@ $10/g". This is going to get amusing; link is here They post in really idiomatic/regional Spanish that I have trouble reading, so I'm replying in the weirdest mix of Spanish/Galician/French/Catalan phrasing I can, and using lots of English idioms that I'm linking to Wiktionary.

May 2017 WikiCup newsletter

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The second round of the competition has now closed, with just under 100 points being required to qualify for round 3. YellowEvan just scraped into the next round with 98 points but we have to say goodbye to the thirty or so competitors who didn't achieve this threshold; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia. Our top scorers in round 2 were:

Cas Liber, led the field with five featured articles, four on birds and one on astronomy, and a total score of 2049, half of which came from bonus points.
1989 was in second place with 826 points, 466 of which were bonus points. 1989 has claimed points mostly relating to anime and Japanese-related articles.
Peacemaker67 took third place with two FAs, one GA and seven GARs, mostly on naval vessels or military personnel, scoring 543 points.
Other contestants who scored over 400 points were Freikorp, Carbrera, and Czar. Of course all these points are now wiped out and the 32 remaining contestants start again from zero in round 3.

Vivvt submitted the largest number of DYKs (30), and MBlaze Lightning achieved 13 articles at ITN. Carbrera claimed for 11 GAs and Argento Surfer performed the most GARs, having reviewed 11. So far we have achieved 38 featured articles and a splendid 132 good articles. Commendably, 279 GARs have been achieved so far, more than double the number of GAs.

So, on to the third round. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points equally.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Stop creating redirects

Latest comment: 7 years ago7 comments2 people in discussion

You really need to stop creating redirects. I see you have now created redirects to Katy Perry. Ones like Swish Swish are useless. It redirects to Katy Perry but the article does not talk about it. This is no different than all the ones you made to Francis Bacon (artist). They are not helpful and potentially harmful. ~ GB fan 17:59, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

You make it sound as though the Bacon redirects were completely inappropriate. Really, they just needed to direct readers to List of paintings by Francis Bacon, where the paintings are mentioned. My bad, not a big deal. I created the Katy Perry redirects per Draft:Katy Perry's fifth studio album, but pages should not redirect to the draft space, so maybe redirecting to (and updating) List of songs recorded by Katy Perry would be better. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:06, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

Redirecting the Francis Bacon paintings to List of paintings by Francis Bacon doesn't help. They are mentioned there but not discussed. It would be better for them to be a red link until someone wants to start a proper article on them. ~ GB fan 18:10, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

List of songs recorded by Katy Perry doesn't mention Swish Swish. ~ GB fan 18:12, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

You've been mentioned at ANI but not pinged

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Just letting you know, I noticed you were not pinged. - Mlpearc (open channel) 02:04, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

@Mlpearc: Thanks. Yeah, I had to walk away from ANI and the redirects discussions, neither of which were really handled properly, IMO. I'm not even sure the redirect pages have been marked as nominated for deletion, so procedure hasn't been followed but I'm not wasting any more time on either discussion. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:35, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Coachella - Woodstock in My Mind

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Resolved

Out of curiosity, what was your reasoning for redirecting it? It seemed notable, from my Google results, but I want to know your reasoning, if you could elaborate please. --Aleccat 01:31, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

@Aleccat: Sure, I redirected because the article was little more than an infobox and the song is not appearing on her upcoming album. I suppose I thought a non-album single made it less deserving of a standalone article until it has charted. I don't feel too strongly about the merge, so feel free to revert if you feel strongly, but I also recommend moving the content to Coachella – Woodstock in My Mind, which complies with Wikipedia's manual of style. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 02:22, 17 May 2017 (UTC)

On 19 May 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bon Appétit (song), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Katy Perry first teased the release of her song "Bon Appétit" with a cherry pie recipe? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bon Appétit (song). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Bon Appétit (song)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

WP:NOTBROKEN

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Greetings AB! Regarding your revert at 2017 dismissal of U.S. attorneys, I have two remarks:

Please read the WP:NOTBROKEN guideline, which is also aptly called WP:DONTFIXIT. Being able to link Joe Q. Bloggs instead of Joe Q. Bloggs is a key feature of redirects; such entries should generally be left alone.
By restoring an edit that I had reverted, you have technically violated the (arguably cumbersome) DS restrictions on those "current politics" articles, which say you must not reinstate any challenged (via reversion) edits without obtaining consensus on the talk page of this article. It's not a big deal for what is essentially a matter of taste here, however you should be extra careful when editing this minefield: well-meaning editors have been blocked for single offenses… (Rest assured I'm not reporting this incident.) — JFG ^talk 23:20, 20 May 2017 (UTC)

@JFG: Ok, thanks for the reminders, and I don't feel strongly so feel free to undo my edit. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 23:26, 20 May 2017 (UTC)

No: I would be violating 1RR if I did

You can either self-revert (that's exempt) or let it go until someone else acts. — JFG ^talk 23:39, 20 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi Jason; I just wanted to say well done on getting Hands Across Hawthorne to FA status. I was unaware of the event until the article made the front page of Wikipedia today. If you are interested more broadly in U.S. LGBT themed articles, I have nominated Death of Leelah Alcorn for FAC; any comments would be appreciated, although no pressure if you are too busy or just not that interested!
