Thank you.

Hello. I just wanted to thank you so much for your feedback on the FLC for List of Sega 32X games, and being willing to step up to the plate to give some feedback. I'm a firm believer in reciprocity, so if you ever have a WP:GAN, WP:PR, WP:FLC, or WP:FAC that could use some feedback or a review, feel free to let me know and I'd be glad to take a look.

WikiProject Good Articles Recruitment Centre

 
Hello! Now, some of you might have already received a similar message a little while ago regarding the Recruitment Centre, so if you have, there is no need to read the rest of this. This message is directed to users who have reviewed over 15 Good article nominations and are not part of WikiProject Good articles (the first message I sent out went to only WikiProject members).

So for those who haven't heard about the Recruitment Centre yet, you may be wondering why there is a Good article icon with a bunch of stars around it (to the right). The answer? WikiProject Good articles will be launching a Recruitment Centre very soon! The centre will allow all users to be taught how to review Good article nominations by experts just like you! However, in order for the Recruitment Centre to open in the first place, we need some volunteers:

  • Recruiters: The main task of a recruiter is to teach users that have never reviewed a Good article nomination how to review one. To become a recruiter, all you have to do is meet this criteria. If we don't get at least 5-10 recruiters to start off with (at the time this message was sent out, 2 recruiters have volunteered), the Recruitment Centre will not open. If interested, make sure you meet the criteria, read the process and add your name to the list of recruiters. (One of the great things about being a recruiter is that there is no set requirement of what must be taught and when. Instead, all the content found in the process section is a guideline of the main points that should be addressed during a recruitment session...you can also take an entire different approach if you wish!) If you think you will not have the time to recruit any users at this time but are still interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still add your name to the list of recruiters but just fill in the "Status" parameter with "Not Available".
  • Co-Director: The current Director for the centre is me (Dom497). Another user that would be willing to help with some of the tasks would be helpful. Tasks include making sure recruiters are doing what they should be (teaching!), making sure all recruitments are archived correctly, updating pages as needed, answering any questions, and distributing the feedback form. If interested, please contact me (Dom497).
  • Nominators, please read this: If you are not interested in becoming a recruiter, you can still help. In some cases a nominator may have an issue with an "inexperienced" editor (the recruitee) reviewing one of their nominations. To minimize the chances of this happening, if you are fine with a recruitee reviewing one of your nominations under the supervision of the recruiter, please add your name to the list at the bottom of this page. By adding your name to this list, chances are that your nomination will be reviewed more quickly as the recruitee will be asked to choose a nomination from the list of nominators that are OK with them reviewing the article.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to seeing this program bring new reviewers to the Good article community and all the positive things it will bring along.

A message will be sent out to all recruiters regarding the date when the Recruitment Centre will open when it is determined. The message will also contain some further details to clarify things that may be a bit confusing.--Dom497 (talk)

Lichtenstein image

I see you removed File:Roy Lichtenstein.jpg from Drowning Girl. I have added the following text to the article: "Another possible influence on his emphasis on depicting distressed women in the early to mid 1960s was that his first marriage was dissolving at the time. LIchtenstein's first marriage to Isabel Wilson, which resulted in two sons, lasted from 1949 to 1965." Would you have a problem with adding this image back to the article now under a proper FUR?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 16:32, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

  • How does the image of Lichtenstein "significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding?" In this context, his physical appearance has zilch to do with it. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:06, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Isabeau of Bavaria

Hi Crisco, quick question: I'm trying to pin down a better source for an image in Isabeau of Bavaria and while looking to see where else it's used found this. Do you happen to know which language this is? To be specific, I'm wondering if it's Javanese, and if so whether's it's a language you might know. You wouldn't have to disclose if you don't want, but I will be asking Moonriddengirl how we handle this kind of cross-wiki copying (because there should be attribution, I'd expect), and am hoping that the person editing there can somehow be notified by a native speaker. Anyway, thought I'd ask here first. Thanks. Victoria (talk) 20:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

  • Yes, that's Javanese (although I don't know the language well enough to read it without trouble), and yes it should have been attributed. By the looks of the history it is from the Papat Limpad programme, which means the person is likely already long gone (university students brought on to write, don't tend to stay on after the programme finishes). I've added contribution and will email the persons who headed the competition. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:23, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
    It looks like none of the Indonesian language projects have {{Translated page}}. Someone on id.wp and jv.wp should copy those templates, and it can be added to jv:Talk:Isabeau of Bavaria. John Vandenberg (chat) 03:39, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
    ID has Templat:Terjemahan, which works. They just don't use it. Didn't find anything for Javanese though. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:44, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
    Thanks. I've added the wikidata interwiki for the id template. John Vandenberg (chat) 07:24, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
    Thanks for this. I hesitated in posting here - it took the longest time for me to figure out what jv stood for. But I was surprised to see it because it seems like such an obscure topic. Anyway, good to know about the templates. 15:20, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
    No worries. I'm trying to convince a jv admin (who speaks the language, at least) to translate a template we can use for attribution. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 21:24, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

My comment "Where we are weaker is broader articles on topics, like Italian Renaissance sculpture.

Johnbod (talk) 11:06, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

  • No offense taken, actually. Just that (as the one everyone points at when "Indonesia + DYK" comes up) I felt that one coming my way. I do hope to do Chinese Malay literature (individual works already have articles, including an FA and a GA) and Cinema of the Dutch East Indies (overlapping with pre-Independence Indonesian cinema, no need for specific examples here) over the summer, when school is on holiday. I can probably do a bit on cinema of Indonesia with what I have available, but I'd definitely need a copy of Krishna Sen's Indonesian Cinema: Framing the New Order to help with the sociopolitical background from the 50s through the 80s.

Crisco, can I ask you to take a look at this very soon? It's in Queue 1, so it's going to be promoted at 08:00 UTC Tuesday, not so very long after you wake up.

This was one of a set built by first-time prep assembler Futurist110, and unfortunately two errors were made: first, rather than substituting DYKsubpage, it looks like an attempt was made to promote by adding the various bits of template code by hand, which was not very successful. I'm currently redoing all of the promotions.

The second affects this one and one other so far: in a couple of cases, Futurist110 both approved and promoted a hook. I don't have time to do more than fix the promotions; in this case, with an article that seemed to have hook issues and possibly others, I'd like someone knowledgable to take a look at it and make sure it is okay. (The other, Daniel Vineyards, was fairly short and seemed okay, but if you want to take a look at it, too, that would be fine.) Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:40, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I'm puzzled by your closing comments here, "hasn't enough in-depth coverage aside from tabloid discussions".

I'm not going to defend the Daily Mail. It's a noxious rag and "tabloid" is a fair description, even though it usually passes the bar for WP. The Telegraph though [1] and even the Express [2] are far from tabloids and certainly should be considered as RS.

I'm most concerned though by the way that this was nominated by an editor who trumpets their connection to Wikipediocracy at the top of their user page and the whole AfD seems to be the result of off-wiki canvassing though Wikipediocracy [3]. That is not a way that WP should ever begin to work!

Unfortunately I missed the AfD notice for this one or I'd have commented earlier. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:00, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

  • Based on these sources, I see a 1E issue (although that is not invoked in the discussion, far as I can tell, as they are both about a certain decision) iff they are enough to indicate a possibility of notability. If you believe a clearer consensus may be possible, I can reopen and relist the nom. I note, however, that many delete !votes were not from Wikipediocracy members. Newyorkbrad, for instance, !voted delete... and Wikipediocracy doesn't appear too fond of him. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:32, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
  • I follow the general principle that WP:Notability isn't inherited, but that inherited peers are notable. Their real-world notability (not WP:N) is inherited, this notability is covered in sources (The London Gazette at least, and almost certainly The Times. Neither of these are tabloids.), as they're covered in WP:RS, they then become WP:Notable. They are implicitly notable in much the same way as trivial villages like Rosside are – if they get that listing in the relevant journal of record, we then have to treat them as notable for our purpose.
I'm also curious as to why the several court cases, which are genuine cases, reported through robust newspaper sources, apparently make this person less notable. The uncomplimentary aspect is obvious, but that should never be a reason to suppress.
1E? Which issue? His inheritance of the title (for which, see above) or his actions that have led him to court. Either of these in isolation would be weak, although I think the first does stand by itself, but we're judging the combination of both, which is 2E at least. "Alex Montagu, plebian bigamist" certainly wouldn't pass N without a lot more to it, but I see this as a pokemon "gotta catch 'em all" article on peers first and foremost, with the court issues as content, rather than cause.
I'll ask NYB for a comment too. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:57, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
  • I'm not of the same view regarding peerage (there's got to be over a million minor nobles in royal houses throughout the globe at any moment, although I can't vouch for the number of UK peers). It may be that I am Canadian, but I can't quite get behind "all peers may be notable" without a policy or guideline relating to it.
I don't mind reopening this, and will do so forthright. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:01, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
  • The "minor notability" aspect is a good one, but not as much of an issue in the UK as it is in much of Europe. Still, baronet would be quite a hard case to make for implicit notability, there are a great many of those. However this title is a duke, which is rare and high status, even though this one is only three hundred years old. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:59, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Move request

Hey man, been a while. Hate to bother you, but given your expertise in the field I was wondering if you could have a look at Talk:Strip Nude for Your Killer. I've put up a move request to have the original title restored in light of it being the one used by more and better sources, and in light of common practice these days being counter to what seems an outdated MOS entry (which was misrepresented in the original MR to begin with). You're probably the go-to guy for non-English films these days so your opinions would be useful if you could spare the time to have a look. GRAPPLE X 21:13, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

MoF Indonesia

Hi, Thanks for your edits to Ministry of Forestry (Indonesia). I wanted to explain why I used the original title, both for the article itself, and within the article. Both were based on the Ministry's official website, which gave the official English translation of the name of the Ministry as: The Ministry of Forestry Republic of Indonesia. I dropped the 'The', thinking it not necessary, but kept the remainder of the official title/ translation. I agree with you about correct English grammar & standardized Wikipedia title name, but nevertheless had opted for the official title. Kind regards, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 13:26, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

  • No worries (I am somehow not surprised that they don't have a native speaker of English helping with the translations. At the very least they'd need a comma after "Forestry") — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:05, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

DYK very late

The DYK queue is empty, and the promotion to the main page was supposed to happen at 00:00 UTC, almost four hours ago.

There are now two sets ready to go. Unfortunately, they both have one of your hooks in them—I suppose I could have left both of them in the same set, as they were originally, but it seemed to me that Indonesian hooks should be separated, especially as one of them was a double hook. I hope, if you're around and there hasn't been a promotion, you can still bring yourself to moving one of the preps to the next queue so it can be moved by the bot. Thanks.

And another

Inspired by a new source of coin images, I've completed Elgin, Illinois, Centennial half dollar. Ignore the red script links, I may still add a bit or two there, I'll remove those sources if I don't. Would you mind doing the honors at DYK? I suggest something focusing on the fact that the dates of the Elgin Centennial (1835-1935) do not appear on the coin.--Wehwalt (talk) 00:39, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

No, by numismatic convention, only "half dollar" is lower case on these things. It makes sense, the "Elgin Centennial" was an event, and so should have a proper noun. I'm still hunting for images. The statue's out of bounds as Rovelstad lived til 1990. I'll make the other change you mentioned.--Wehwalt (talk) 00:52, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Great, thanks. There's no official name on these, and to be honest, the sources use different variants, like Elgin (Illinois) Centennial half dollar. Images are a bit of a problem as Rovelstad lived to 1990 and I don't think a photo of the completed monument would be justifiable. Possibly there is literature out there without a copyright and pre-1978.--Wehwalt (talk) 05:32, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

TemplateData is here

Hey Crisco 1492

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Newsletter request

Hey Crisco. I have to get a feature done for the Video Games newsletter relating to Featured Pictures. Would you by any chance give me a soundbite about the Featured Pictures Candidate process? GamerPro64 15:15, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Recently, users such as Sven Manguard have been negotiating OTRS releases for screenshots (and even trailers) from indie video game companies; the companies recognise that file donations benefit not just us, but them in the long run. Evan Amos has likewise done a fantastic job taking pictures of game consoles (as I'm sure many members of the project already know), and if I'm not mistaken every last mainstream game console article has at least one image by him. At least two screenshots and two console pictures are already featured, and I'm sure there are more on the way. However, other aspects related to gaming are poorly developed; what about diagrams illustrating concepts such as aggro, for instance? That is an area which certainly has room for development, and which project members may be able to provide spectacular results through the creation of SVG diagrams and GIF or OGG videos; we had File:Circlestrafing animation.gif, and it's still quite useful, but it was ultimately removed. Video game editors should remember that the concepts behind the games themselves may prove more difficult to understand for lay readers than the games themselves. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:30, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
This is good. I'll be sure to mention you said this. Also, I see that you nominated an picture of the PlayStation 2. By the looks of it its going to pass tonight. GamerPro64 15:36, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Something like that, yeah. I've been nominating Evan's stuff for a while now (he does do really good product pictures; I just restore and/or download high quality scans of paintings) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:38, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Oh right. Evan has certainly taken some nice looking pictures of consoles. Surprised only two of them are FPs so far. GamerPro64 15:44, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
  • I think part of it is that only eight or so of Evan's pictures were nominated. Three that passed were not video games (Bananagrams and a camera come to mind) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:57, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
I might have some more screenshots coming soon. No promises though. Sven Manguard Wha? 18:32, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

SL93

I'm tempted to give him an unblock, but wanted your take on it, too. He showed up on IRC and seems to me that he wouldn't continue the war, but he was totally unaware of WP:3RR. I checked and I don't see any indication he was warned (except in the comments of the edits, which actually only said "3R" and I don't think he actually knew what that even meant). Given that he wouldn't continue the behavior, I don't believe that the block is necessary any longer. What are your thoughts? --Shirik (Questions or Comments?) 14:52, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day
Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
Quality
Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content
Is more content needed?
Headings
Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
Images
Is the number of illustrative images about right?
Links
Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
Sources
For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:33, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

I'm just not sure if my arithmetic for this is 100% right, so I'm hoping you can find the time, and wouldn't mind, doing a quick double check? SagaciousPhil - Chat 12:34, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, Crisco ..... so does the 'list' of sponsors that appeared in the May version get counted in the character tally? I thought 'lists' were excluded - although with the way it was presented it was included by the DYK checker? I manually subtracted the 'list' to get the 626 character count for the old version   SagaciousPhil - Chat 14:36, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for looking again. That is the version I was working from but I subtracted the 375 characters that made up the 'list' part in that versions 1001 character DYK checker total, which is where I got the 626 character count from. At the end of the day, it still means the article has been improved, even if Matty hasn't got a DYK credit from it. Thanks again for your help, it's much appreciated. SagaciousPhil - Chat 15:10, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
I've expanded the article a bit more now as it looks like Matty might have abandoned it. Although I think it's now over 5k, it might have to be closed as the expansion is outside the allowed time frame? But never mind, I've enjoyed playing with it - makes a change from dog articles or Scottish Lairds and their estate! SagaciousPhil - Chat 16:22, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
Thank you - it's only teatime here (5.30pm ish) but "Goodnight"..... SagaciousPhil - Chat 16:40, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Adopting

Hello.

I am currently l am currently looking for a user to adopt me and was directed towards you. I am relatively new to Wikipedia but not to editing as I have been on Wikia for around a year and a half. But I am mainly wanting to be adopted to be taught about Wikipedia's Policies and Guidelines as well as how to bring articles up to good or feature standard and assessment. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear back from you. Rainbow Shifter (talk) 22:18, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Main Page appearance: Sair Tjerita Siti Akbari

This is a note to let the main editors of Sair Tjerita Siti Akbari know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on July 18, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs) or one of his delegates (Dabomb87 (talk · contribs), Gimmetoo (talk · contribs), and Bencherlite (talk · contribs)), or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/requests. You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/July 18, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Sair Tjerita Siti Akbari is an 1884 Malay-language syair (poem) by Lie Kim Hok. Adapted from the Sjair Abdoel Moeloek, it tells of a woman who passes as a man to free her husband from the Sultan of Hindustan, who had captured him in an assault on their kingdom. Written over a period of several years and influenced by European literature, the work differs from earlier syairs in its use of suspense and emphasis on prose rather than form. It also incorporates European realist views to expand upon the genre while maintaining several of the hallmarks of traditional syairs. Critical views have emphasised various aspects of its story, finding in the work an increased empathy for women's thoughts and feelings, a call for a unifying language in the Dutch East Indies, and a polemic regarding the relation between tradition and modernity. A commercial and critical success, Siti Akbari was twice reprinted; in 1940 it was adapted to film. When Sjair Abdoel Moeloek's influence became clear in the 1920s, Lie was criticised as unoriginal. However, Siti Akbari remains one of the better known syairs written by an ethnic Chinese author, and Lie was later styled the "father of Chinese Malay literature". (Full article...)

The blurb as it stands now is below:

Albertus Soegijapranata (1896–1963) was a Javanese cleric who became the first native Indonesian bishop upon being created as Archbishop of Semarang in 1940. Born to a Muslim family in Surakarta, Dutch East Indies, in 1910 he converted to Catholicism and was ordained in 1931. First serving as a pastor in Yogyakarta, Soegijapranata was consecrated as the vicar apostolic of the newly established Apostolic Vicariate of Semarang in 1940, moving to the city to take the position. During the Japanese occupation, Soegijapranata resisted attempts to seize Church property, including his vicariate's cathedral, and protected the area's Catholics. During the ensuing national revolution (1945–49) he promoted a nationalist cause, moving his seat to Yogyakarta to support the new government and working to promote international recognition of Indonesia's independence. During the post-revolution years he wrote extensively against communism and worked towards a self-determined Indonesian Roman Catholic hierarchy. He was made an archbishop in 1961, dying two years later in the Netherlands. Soegijapranata is now considered a National Hero of Indonesia and in 2011 a biopic on him was released. (Full article...)

Just a note of appreciation for putting up two interesting articles for consideration at TFA, with blurbs in the correct format and of proper length. You have no idea how much easier that makes life for me! Regards, BencherliteTalk 23:09, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Swami Vivekananda

Can you help the article Swami Vivekananda to achieve FA (and GA status)? The article was nominated, and it failed as the reviewer found a years-old close paraphrasing issue (which has been fixed now). Since my one (GA) nomination failed, I do not want to take risk once again (personal superstition). I don't want any attribution, you can nominate the article. But, I'll be there to work. The next very important date is 11 September (on 11 September 1893, Vivekananda gave his first lecture at Chicago). --TitoDutta 00:30, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

  • I wouldn't know the subject matter nearly well enough to nominate at FA. I could review, though, and you could easily nominate it (after checking for close paraphrasing issues, just to be safe) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:34, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
User:Titodutta,I have doubts over the prose of the article. I don't have the time to go over it, as of now. If possible, request some native English speaker to have a look.--Dwaipayan (talk) 05:09, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Since we have just bent over backwards to make sure the recent Swami Vivekananda hooks were given special consideration for DYK on July 4, I was distressed to see this request, with User:Titodutta asking User:Solomon7968 to nominate a DYK for him, which was subsequently done for Template:Did you know nominations/Swami Vivekananda statue (Golpark, Kolkata). Another request (presumably not yet done) is later made for the article Inspired Talks about a Vivekananda book, with a "Sister Christine" article apparently waiting in the wings.

Although the reason given is the number of nominations Tito Dutta already has in process, it nevertheless has the effect of bypassing the QPQ requirement. Indeed, the statue nomination explicitly says that no QPQ is needed because it isn't a self-nomination. At a time when we're struggling for reviews, this is simply unacceptable. I will be placing a note on that nomination saying that a QPQ will be required, and request that Tito make his own nominations going forward, especially as Swami Vivekananda is his bailiwick and the articles his creation. Crisco, if you think I'm out of line in any of this, please let me know, but whatever the motives, I can't see allowing the QPQ avoidance to stand. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:49, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

  • I think Titto, as a DYK regular, should still do some reviews (even if it's not a self nom). I did a QPQ the last time I nominated an article by Wehwalt. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:53, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
  • There are people who have more articles nominated than that, so I don't think four or five are an issue. Look at Dr. Blofeld, for example: he has two dozen pending nominations at last count, with a new one added practically every day. If they are your own articles, you should be nominating them, not asking other people to do that task for you. I am glad, however, that you will be doing QPQs for these articles. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:23, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
  • User:Bluemoonset, it is inappropriate to mention Sister Christine User:Titodutta/Sister Christine here. Though it already passes DYK length criteria, the article is not at all complete and I don't think I can finish work before third or fourth week of July. If you see, I have mentioned about Sister Christine at Crisco's talk page and few other user's talk page too. --TitoDutta 03:14, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
  • I don't understand why it was inappropriate to mention: you had listed it in the same sentence as another article you wanted him to nominate, as if it would be another one for him to nominate when it was ready. If you nominate it yourself, then I have no issue with it whenever it should happen to be ready. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:23, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Tlg bantu sy

Bung, bisa tdk anda surati User:Shyamal. Tanyakan k dia, "ente ini asli India atawa bukan"? Lagi, minta juga dia menambahkan catatan2 perihal Cyornis banyumas. Klopun tdk bisa, sy minta "Tuan Gadang nan Saurang" (Tuan Besar) menyurati User:Jimfbleak. Sebab, Bung bisa bahasa Inggris dgn baik. Sedangkan beta, tdk. Lalu, saat ini beta kekurangan catatan ttg spesies. Hanya ini dan ini. Jadi, beribu2 trima kasih sy hatur kpd Tuan Gadang.

Tabik. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 04:35, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Deskripsi, sarang, dan ttg telur. Kalaupun tdk bisa, cukuplah kpd User:Jimfbleak. Sebab, sy yakin Toean Jim F. Bleak ini asli barat. Jadi, Tuan pasti bisa bicara bhs Inggris lebih lancar kpd dia ketimbang kpd Shyamal. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 02:15, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
  • Bukannya ada di buku-buku mengenai burung Nusantara? Itu termasuk informasi yang agak dasar. Kalau pengalaman pribadi, sepertinya Jim tidak punya (I don't think Jim has observed Cyornis banyumas on his own), dan kalaupun punya, tidak bisa dirujuk. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:34, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
Klo Shyamal, burung ini menurut ini karya Thomas C. Jerdon, burung ini ada d India. Nah, kebetulan Shyamal suka mengurusi burung2 d India (lihat User:Shyamal/todo), jadi cobakan dahulu k Shyamal. Btw, ornitolog terkenal dari Kanada itu contohnya sapa sih, Bung?" --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 03:15, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
Ente sudah tanya k Shyamal belum? Sy pikir, artikel Sikatan cacing sulit dikembangkan. Sy tdk mau lagi ikut campur t'hadap artikel ini. Sy mau coba peruntungan sy d artikel burung Parbeng (paruh bengkok) Lorius lory dgn buku Catalogue of Birds of the Psittaci, or Parrots in the Collection of the British Museum (Katalog Paruh Bengkok dalam Koleksi British Museum). Apabila ada berita ttg ornitologi, klak beta sampaikan lagi.

--Akbar ini dari Kalbar 05:58, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Belumlah, karena pengalaman dia itu riset asli dan tidak dapat dipertanggungjawabkan. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:03, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

O, ya. Sy ada satu lagi permintaan. Sy masih kurang data perihal Lorius lory alias id:Kasturi kepala-hitam. Jadi, bisa tdk anda mintakan some note about breeding, terutama perilaku sewaktu perkawinan kpd Jim F. Bleak. Sebab, klo d buku sy dikatakan telurnya ada 2, dierami sekitar 27 hari dan mulai terbang pada usia 8 minggu (itu informasi yg dasar).

Yg jelas, sy kekurangan catatan perihal perilaku hewan ini. Jadi, yg jelas sy minta abang sampaikan keinginan sy t'hadap tuan Jim. Sebab, artikel itu mau sy calonkan sebagai Artikel Bagus. Pada akhirnya, beribu-ribu terima kasih beta hatur kpd Tuan.

Tabik. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 06:18, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Miriam Battista

Crisco, do you think the image is okay to use? I almost made it the lead hook, but then got stuck. (Rosiestep didn't directly address Tito's worries on the photo.) If it's a publicity photo, I'm assuming it was used as such the year it was taken—when Battista was eight—but was that when she was really eight (1920–21), or after she'd been made two years younger in other stories (1922–23) and was said to be eight although she was ten? If the latter, we're potentially over the dividing line into 1923 (her birthday was in the summer), though the picture of her with Coolidge from 1923 (the year he became president after the death of Harding) makes her look significantly older and a bit tall for lap-sitting. Anyway, let me know. We already have an actor in Prep 1, but she could head Prep 2 if the image is eligible. Thanks! BlueMoonset (talk) 00:06, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

  • This is dated 1922 if you want to play with it (or I can). The original portrait from which the headshot is cropped was taken by Ira L. Hill (died 1947), but I haven't found what year it was published. I don't doubt it's PD (highly unlikely that it had a copyright notice on it, even if it was published in 1924) but without a look at the back I can't be 100% sure. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:14, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
  • Crisco, thanks for the offer. To be honest, I don't like the 1922 cultural institute photo as much: she looks older and more mature ... and happy, which doesn't fit the "cry on camera" hook at all. (I can see the connection between the 1922 photo and the Coolidge 1923.) What about the photo of her crying in the article, the 1920 publicity photo from Humoresque? It's not as good an image, to my mind, as the Hill photo, but it's an illustration of the hook. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:03, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
  • I can't find any other use of the image to confirm it's from a publicity shot (though if it is it's certainly PD). I found this still, but it's a different one. My connection doesn't allow me to stream video, so I'll be unable to check if its a screenshot. However, based on the costume (same in both images) I think this one would be safe. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:11, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
  • Tito is understandably objecting to the image because Commons says it was created in 2012 instead of 1920. (I suspect that it may have been scanned in 2012, and uploaded by someone—one of the article's authors—who didn't understand what that date meant.) Is this something you can change? I'm not sure we can use it if you can't... BlueMoonset (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

If you search for "Cyornis banyumas" on Google Books, one of the links is a full preview of the Birds of East Asia page 442. That gives a description and voice, should get you started (any problem viewing, let me know, I have the book) Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:14, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Jim, seumpama sy gunakan Thomas C. Jerdon's The Birds of India dan satu ref. from Indonesia sendiri, Mengenal Hewan & Tumbuhan Asli Indonesia, bagaimana pendapat Tuan?

NB:Silakan terjemah pesan sy d atas menggunakan Google Translate. Tabik. --Akbar ini dari Kalbar 10:20, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

Jerdon's fine for description (that's usually the easy bit), but doesn't mention voice, so you need a ref for that as well really. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:09, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
  • "Jerdon boleh digunakan untuk deskripsi (biasanya itu yang paling mudah), tetapi ia tidak membahas suara burung itu, jadi Anda juga membutuhkan rujukan untuk hal tersebut".

Hmm, terima kasih, Jim. Sekarang, beta harus kembangkan Lorius lory (Black-capped Lory; Indonesianya kasturi kepala-hitam) dan itu tadi, Hill Blue Flycatcher.

Nature of America

I notice that you have closed the deletion request on Nature of America because of no consensus. However another very similar article Celebrate the Century was deleted. That one too was relisted twice to get better results and like this one did not attract any more results. The only reason that article got a little more feedback was due to my "keep" request and reasoning for keep. Whereas in Nature of America I didn't go to argue and that had only one delete request. In fact that article had little more content than Nature of America has. Was that article worth deleting while this one wasn't? The argument for both were the same.--PremKudvaTalk 04:20, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

  • I cannot speak for Metropolitan90, who closed the Celebrate the Century discussion. For NoA, I generally (and I think most admins agree) do not close as delete with only two !votes because that is not exactly a consensus; I generally expect at least three votes before closing either keep or delete. Note how Celebrate the Century had at least three !votes, which may have been a deciding factor. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 04:26, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

DYK nomination for the second time - procedure?

Do you know the procedure to nominate an article at DYK for the second time? First time it was quick-failed. On 29 December reviewer told the article does not pass length criteria and within 2 days the discussion was closed. Someone else nominated it on my behalf and I did not watchlist the page. See Template:Did you know nominations/Bibliography of Swami Vivekananda

It was one of the most unfortunate failures. The article had 20,000+ bytes in list at that time, we could easily expand the prose section. Anyway, past is past. What we could do at that time, I am going to do it now. It'll not be a difficult task since I need to expand from 400 bytes to 2000 bytes (though I'll attempt to write a fine and engaging lead).

Nut, do you know the procedure to nominate an article for the second time? Should I start the nomination below the previous nomination or at Template:Did you know nominations/Bibliography of Swami Vivekananda 2? --TitoDutta 17:48, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
