NCFC honours

edit

Hey, just a quick hello. The NCFC honours section is a right mess. I just changed it from saying NCFC had been League Champions three times to Second Division champs, but then, of course, 03/04 it was First Division (or was it the Championship by then, can't remember...), and it also says the club were runners-up in 81/82 while in the main history it says third. Can you sort it? Cheers! The Rambling Man 07:38, 2 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Dweller, and thanks very much for your kind words. I've seen a lot of your work too and you've always impressed me. Keep it up. Hope you have a good holiday. I'm back on WP now but I'm a bit short of time for the present. All the best. --BlackJack | talk page 17:07, 2 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Akhilleus gets new weapons.
Archive7, thanks for your support in my successful RfA.

As the picture shows, the goddesses have already bestowed my new weapons,
which I hope to use to good effect. If you ever need assistance,
or want to give me feedback on my use of the admin tools,
please leave me a message on my talkpage.

"The Bums' song" [sic]

edit

In response to your alert, I did some work on the page - while unbeknownst to me (as there's no alert for an "edit conflict" when a comment's being posted on the associated Talk page), another User made a valid point about sourcing. A check revealed that my ad lib translation was itself "unencyclopedic," as having no evident support in other Web sources. This led me to revise what I'd written, with a solution I hope will serve the purpose. As a native speaker of US English, I'd say that "lazy bum" was used rather than simply "bum" which in our lingo—and rather dated, at that—generaly connotes "hobo." Objectively speaking, you turned to a fairly qualified though not necessarily objective arbiter: not only am I a professional HebrewEnglish translator, I'm a Eurovision fan and resident of Israel since late 1984. Local viewers of my acquaintance were mildly horrified at this song's winning the pre-Eurovision, and quite bewildered at its high ranking in the international competition. We could best understand this as a "protest vote" by Europeans fed up with the canned/commercial nature of the mainstream entries. Understandably, we were nonetheless cheered—as every year—by votes for the Israeli entry as indicative of... well, if not outright philo-Zionism, at least not rejection of what's sometimes considered a rogue state and pariah nation (dare I say, antisemitism). Anyway, I did some minor editing as well; hope my contribution's of some help in clarifying the point of concern. -- Thanks for the heads-up, Deborahjay 22:51, 11 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

NCFC peer review

edit

It's bursting at the seams now, thanks to HornetMike... I'll have a look over some of them and see where we go. Oldelpaso has a few comments remaining as well... The Rambling Man 15:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I've bagged and tagged around 75% of the comments, there are some slightly more specific issues (e.g. history of Carrow Road development) that you are probably in a better position to address if your book covers it. There's also still a whiff of recentism which needs addressing. But once we hit the remaining issues into touch, I'd suggest the FA nom... really wind things up a bit!!

Hi. Thanks for the Barnie. Agreed re Brett Lee - and I took the hint (!). What's that weird stuff at the foot of his article? --Dweller 08:54, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

See the Lee history. I've made one revert, but I'm not interested in a revert war there or anywhere on WP for that matter. I suggest we bring in WP:CRIC for a consensus conversation at the talk page. Once consensus is established, reverts can be made and the dissenting minority needs to avoid 3RR. --Dweller 11:55, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well yes I see, the guy has been blocked for sockpuppeteering. Well, I guess it's 2-1 but I don't think that guy will be changing his mind anytime. Single article editors usually are quite strong in their opinions about the subject, which is why they only want to edit one and have no interest in others. And usually way POV as well. I'm not going to worry about reverting if he keeps blanking out the stuff about the suspect bowling action, or the beamers. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 04:26, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Bart Versieck

edit

Greetings,

I have known Bart for several years now and he does not follow the rules. To change other people's messages is wrong, and he has been repeatedly warned about this many times, but fails to listen. If you are to stand up for what is right, I suggest you send him a message, not me. Bart lives in another country and knows this is not a 'threat,' it is a warning that continued violation of not just Wikipedia rules but standard worldwide literary practice is something that could have negative consequences in academia.R Young {yakłtalk} 09:29, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

I do not believe that Winston Churchill standing up to Adolph Hitler is 'stooping to another's level.' It is the idea that we must be 'above' one another that is actually more dangerous. For, by placing ourselves on a pedestal, we make our position much more untenable. Hence the US defeat in Vietnam. Also, Bart is the one that is messing up what I write, not the other way around. Is it too much to ask you to advise Bart NOT to do it? Your messages to me accomplish nothing. Punishing a judge for punishing a criminal won't make a criminal behave. I am not Mike Nifong here. Bart is clearly guilty; he signs his name.

True, you can censor me but since I would then not be able to add new information, the real victims would be the world's education on the topic. I would then censor Bart on non-Wikipedian sites and he would then be left in the dark. Everyone loses. Would it be too much to ask for you to set ego aside and do the right thing...give Bart a warning? What is it about standing behind doing the right thing, when the other side has repeatedly broken the rules and has not respected repeated requests to stop it? Also, I FAIL to see how the words 'consequences on Wikipedia' constitute a 'threat'. What, is his computer going to 'zap' him? Since when is Wikipedia a weapon?R Young {yakłtalk} 09:45, 16 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

your claim

edit

"airing grievances in this manner is unproductive and unfair (the targets have no place editing the page to refute the accusations)." - sorry, who is airing grievances? I did post diffs. That's it. And everybody is able to improve the page. The "accusations" are well sourced. Every had a diff. The reader could himself compare the actions with the written policies and see if they were violated. BTW, I tried to set up a project to collect abuse issues, but this was deleted speedily without talk. A clique of admins tries to hide evidences for their abuses. They use their weapons in conflicts they are involved themselves and they use them out of policy. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 18:31, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hi Tobias. I have no doubt that your accusations are well sourced - I assumed good faith. However, the targets have no place editing your user page to refute the claims. If you have grounds for complaint, there are a number of different avenues which allow you to do so, while fairly allowing the other party to respond. If your project was deleted without correct process, that's bad; challenge it? --Dweller 18:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

It's populated. One thing we get used to on UCFD is that sometimes it can take a while for the system to cycle through user accounts, updating them to their new categories. So while your page knows you're in the new category, the system doesn't yet. But it will.

Hi Dweller,

Well don't get too worked up by it, it's supposed to be interesting and informative and generate debate and discussion.

Hi Dweller. Thank you for the comments about the letter in The Times. I am the writer of that letter, and seeing Mr. Steadman's (The person I was replying to) comments about Wikipedia, insensed me. I am part of the RCP and Counter Vandalism teams here, and for him to suggest that we were "littered with inaccuracies" made me wanna sort him out. I have since learned that this Mr Steadman had an account here, and was nailed for trolling and vandalism, which suggests to me that he has an axe to grind against Wikipedia.

Please don't put a Proposed Deletion tag back after someone removed it. This is against the WP:PROD policy, especially ": If anyone, including the article's creator, removes Template:Prod from an article for any reason, do not put it back". You can disagree with the removal, but then to have it deleted you have to take it to AfD. Anyway, a quick Google revealed that it is reported in French in Le Journal de l'Automobile, the Spanish El Mundo, the Irish Sunday Tribune. I have no interest in this article (and didn't intend to spend this time on it), I just check if expired prods should be kept or deleted. If you want sources for the article, either search for them or put a "source" tag on it. If you can't find any of think there aren't any, put it up for AfD. Fram 13:16, 20 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

RfA WikiProject endorsement issue

edit

Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention. After some careful consideration, I have to conclude that requiring or even encouraging endorsement by WikiProjects is a bad idea. It would entail voting and discussion on WikiProject talk pages concerning RfA's, effectively expanding the RfA process to WikiProject pages. That's pure bureaucracy, and won't improve Wikipedia at all. WikiProjects don't need that type of distraction. They've got their work cut out for them already.

[3] That may be sensible (at this time). It's really important to be mindful of WP:CANVASS when talking about potential RfA's on project pages as more than one has become derailed over that issue. I would nearly suggest leaving it a week or so so that the discussion isn't associated with the RfA.

Looks good. It might be possible to create a free version of the Norwich coat of arms, as the original design is probably public domain by now. Only that rendering is copyrighted.

OK, this is great because it's still gobbledigook to me and I'm keen to learn more about image licensing. Let's take this slowly. With the coat of arms, how would I create a free version?

RfA

edit

Just saw your attempt at garnering a RFA-nom (or endorsement) from the cricket project. Good job on trying this experiment. Whether it works or not it was worth a try to test the waters, especially on such a prominent wikiproject. Personally, i think such noms would be quite convincing since they come from a group that know the user well. David D. (Talk) 15:32, 25 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. I'm thinking that what might fit the canvassing rules and the notion is that when the RfA goes live, I'll post a message to that effect at WP:CRIC (which I believe is allowed) and ask members to identify themselves as members when they !vote at the RfA, whichever way that is. A consensus should be apparent that way and I'd hopefully not be trampling anyone's sensitivities or breaking any rules. --Dweller 15:39, 25 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

The article was VERY POV in favor of the 'techeiles' people. The fact is that only Kahane/Kach people wear it and that all poskim have condemned and forbidden it. --Rabbeinu 09:07, 26 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. You're right. I don't know of any chareidi poskim (aside from the Radzhyner Rebbe, and that story is such an exemption and such a bizarre story that it is not even worth mentioning) who permit anything other than white. I have never in my life met any chareidi person (and I am a chareidishe yid in Yerushalaim who is deeply involved in the chassidishe world here) wearing techeiles, and I have met a few. It's only the hilltop guys who wear it (from Tekoa, Kiryat Arba etc). But any yeshiva I am familiar with, would immediately throw any bochur (or kollel, avreich) out of the yeshiva should he show up wearing 'techeiles'. --Rabbeinu 09:25, 26 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
That's a little silly, of course most Jews do not wear both. Only Chabadniks. Most chassidim don't wear them until the chasseneh or only some time after that. AFAIK only chabadnikim start at their bar mitzvah. --Rabbeinu 11:28, 26 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

It's not really crystal balling if we can find another, free, reliable source... The Rambling Man 07:41, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

The images section needs work. The reader could use advice on where to look for pictures, tips on finding them, etc.

Also, some sections have nothing but bulletted lists. That content should be presented as paragraphs.

Getting close...

I see Gilchrist is on the Main page! Hope you got the day off to stave off the main page vandalism. Quadzilla99 02:41, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I was just wandering what you're comment "New Stadium more logically should fall into the Stadia section as a subsection" exactly means, as the New stadium section is a subsection of the Stadia section. Mattythewhite 12:53, 28 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

You mentioned in your draft that FAs can be nominated to appear on the Main Page. I thought all FAs were routinely scheduled to appear on the Main Page as a matter of course (I know for sure that featured pictures are). Could you check on this please?

NCFC FA? Why didn't anyone tell me?! Oh, and I think the above question can be answered by the fact that Raul promotes about at least a dozen articles a day so it would be impossible for all articles to be featured unless they stay on the main page for less than a day... well done on NCFC anyhow...

Okay then...

So, while the other stuff goes on, and now NCFC has been promoted (and my mini-side project of Italian football champions seems to be going slooooowly towards promotion) and with concerns in the other place of me reducing my FA output, it's about time we had a timetable for a couple of new FA projects. What say you? The Rambling Man 17:04, 29 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey, no, it's not going badly at all(!) but I must focus... FOCUS! So, your suggestions both look good to me, although I'm waaaay out of my comfort zone with Harlech Castle, but that may be a good thing. Let me know when you're about so we can make a start. Also, about the other thing, have you and the Transhumanist discussed whether you feel you're ready yet? The Rambling Man 07:02, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
I'm making a start on O'Reilly, I'm fixing all the current references so they use the right templates, and adding citation needed's where appropriate... The Rambling Man 10:11, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey, I've got through all your comments left on the FAC page + I've got some copyediting done. Much else need doing do you think? Thanks, Mattythewhite 17:55, 29 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey. Do you think the edits made by Johnlp have been beneficial to the article? Mattythewhite 21:23, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
I've done some work on those now. Mattythewhite 15:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Think that ones done now. Mattythewhite 15:36, 1 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
