Hello, I have a future plan that I want to talk about that I have in place for my personal Vital Articles sublist. I am certain that those kinds of matters are more your concern than that of most other Wikipedians due to your active involvement in the main VAs project... so that's why I decided to contact you about this issue.
Regarding the arts, recreation, and pop culture topics
It has somehow come to my attention that of all types of topics, the one that would require the most amount of attention would be those relating to the arts, recreation, and popular culture. Many have been the disputes faced by those involved in the official equivalent of the project in question, as a matter of fact, with regards to such topics. I have already finished two such sublists: one devoted to the basics of the arts, cultural venues, and fictional creations; and one devoted specifically to film. Both of those lists are in their finished state as of now, but there is still a lot of work to be done with all the rest.
Having said that, I have decided that beyond these, my vital articles list will include:
- 510 articles relating to architecture;
- 1,950 articles relating to literature;
- 1,600 music articles;
- 400 performing arts articles; and
- 1,000 visual arts articles (with 50 extra articles added pertaining specifically to modern visual arts, outside of film).
Additionally, I have made the decision that television on my VAs list will not be grouped among Society and Social Sciences topics, as in the official VAs list, nor listed on the same exact page as the other Arts topics: rather, it will be assigned its own sublist (though it is grouped among Arts topics, not SocSci ones). What I have here, however, is nothing more than an exact duplicate of the official list, seeing as how there is a major conflict at the official VAs with regard to the vitality of TV topics. There have been many arguments in this regard, especially in relation to individual shows. The official list will have to be trimmed in order for me to be able to use it as a workpoint for my own list.
As I go on further about this, I will announce that recreation and entertainment (aside from sports) will be covered with a total of 1,060 entries in my VAs. That amounts to 80 articles about general entertainment and leisure; 100 recreation/tourism articles (with 60 covering amusement parks in particular), 130 articles about toys, and 720 articles about games (of which 435 or so will cover video games specifically). Taking that into account, I have planned for recreation to be listed separately from sports. How then am I supposed to handle this, if video games are more or less a secondary topic as far as the scope of human knowledge is concerned? Should I go even further and separate video games from all the rest of the recreation topics, since they are an art form as well as a form of recreation?
I also have plans in place to remove the four mass media agencies from the "Mass media and journalism" subsection in SocSci and move them to the "Companies" section of "Economics," allowing that sublist to list them among printing and publishing companies, alongside those involved in film, television, video game, and other entertainment production. This, however, would not be as called-for a measure as my decision to group Television (where famous anime are supposed to be listed) in the same category of sublists as Literature (where famous manga are supposed to be listed), seeing as how manga and anime are so significantly intertwined with each other).
My main PC (an HP all-in-one) is currently out of service with a defective touch-screen display panel that is in need of replacement. Once I get that computer back up and running again, I will use it to set back to work and carry out the orders of business outlined above. Once the Arts, Social Sciences, and Everyday Life sublists are all finished, I will return to your talk page to notify you of their completion and ask you to review and analyze them yourself, but not until. --SethAllen623 (discussion/contributions), February 8, 2021, 10:23 UTC.

Please do not link every mention of thoughts and prayers to that article. The article is primarily about a US slacktivism controversy, so only uses about that subject should be linked. The article should really be named Thoughts and prayers controversy. I am going to go through and remove all those links leaving only the ones that apply.

- Our article on Thoughts and prayers is about the phrase. My links to thoughts and prayers are limited to situations where the words are uttered in response to deaths from disasters, accidents, terrorist acts, etc. Situations where the use of the phrase is notable. I would also argue that the phrase may not be familiar to readers who are not familiar with Christian traditions. I believe that these links, or at least most of them, are appropriate. feminist (+) 05:31, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- The first thing people see when they click on the link is a protest sign that says "F*uk your thoughts and prayers". That is turns any page you linked into a covert attack page. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 14:39, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- I agree that the top image is provocative. I have swapped its position with another image in the article where the phrase is less obviously attacked. Although an image as illustration is useful for readers, I'd imagine finding an image of the phrase in a non-critical context would be difficult, given that it is usually spoken as opposed to in a visual form. feminist (+) 14:46, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Your lack of objectivity in this distresses me. You obviously are using Wikipedia to push political agendas. If there was not a controversy about the phrase the article would not exist and in fact did not exist until the controversy happen. It is not about the phrase in any sort of NPOV manner and you know it. Changing the image does not fix that. I see you have done a lot of editing on Wikipedia and I would think you would know better.

Further input for NationBuilder?
Hi again. First of all, I want to thank you for your previous edits in response to my requests at NationBuilder. A few days ago, an editor placed an "Advert" tag above the notable use cases section. Would you be able to take another look to see if you agree or disagree that such a tag is appropriate? Perhaps you can either remove the tag if you think it was placed incorrectly, or make the necessary changes to the content so that the section no longer has any hint of advertising, which is something I, as a disclosed COI editor, did not intend to add. I appreciate any help you can provide with this matter. Sorcha at NationBuilder (talk) 15:45, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Feminist. Thanks so much for improving the "Notable use cases" section of the NationBuilder article. I think the renamed subsections make it seem far less promotional. If you agree that the section is now no longer written like an advertisement, could you please remove the advert tag? If not, I'd love to keep discussing to determine what additional changes you feel might be necessary to bring that section in line with Wikipedia's guidelines. Thanks again for all your help.

Asking for your input on NationBuilder Talk page
Hi Feminist, I am a COI editor working for NationBuilder, whose article you created in 2019. I pinged you recently asking for your input at Talk:NationBuilder where I posted an edit request. Any chance you could take a look when you have a moment? Thanks, Sorcha at NationBuilder (talk) 19:34, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

- Hi Feminist. Following up here to ask if you could please take another look over the Notable use cases section of the NationBuilder article and either remove the Advert tag if "advertising" is no longer an issue, or to fix the section so that this is the case and then remove the tag. I really appreciate all your work on this article – thank you for creating it back in 2019 and maintaining it so that it continues to be a valuable resource for the public!

I would really appreciate it if you could be bold and take down the tag. Thanks. Sorcha at NationBuilder (talk) 17:08, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of InstaShop
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on InstaShop requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/InstaShop. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Liberal Democrats
Congratulations! We now have a dab page that doesn't list most of the likely intended targets, and a set index page which stops people noticing that links are aimed at the wrong target. I see no logic whatsoever in your moves, and nothing that actually helps either readers or editors. DuncanHill (talk) 02:02, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
- My rationale is that List of Liberal Democratic parties already contains all the specific political parties that were originally listed on Liberal Democrats (disambiguation), and hence the disambiguation page is mostly redundant to the set index. But point taken regarding the DPL issue. I'll revert my edits later today. feminist (talk) 14:29, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

RM close of Dock
Hi! I'm really surprised by your close of Talk:Dock#Requested move 4 March 2022. How did you arrive at that decision? – Uanfala (talk) 14:36, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- Consensus is 5-2 in support of the move on the basis that the maritime topic is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for "dock". feminist (talk) Слава Україні! 14:40, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- But those supporting didn't provide any evidence for that assertion, whereas the evidence that did get provided clearly showed that there was no primary topic with respect to usage. – Uanfala (talk) 14:46, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- Those supporting the move pointed out that the maritime dock has existed (i.e. began existing in the past and continues to exist) for thousands of years - an assertion that is unlikely to be challenged - hence concluding that the topic is primary with respect to long-term significance (
substantially greater enduring notability and educational value than any other topic associated with that term
). Under WP:PTOPIC, there is no requirement that a topic be primary with respect to both usage and long-term significance. According to Wikipedia:Closing_discussions#How_to_determine_the_outcome,If the discussion shows that some people think one policy is controlling, and some another, the closer is expected to close by judging which view has the predominant number of responsible Wikipedians supporting it
- and the view that the maritime topic is the primary topic for "dock" has the predominant number of responsible Wikipedians supporting it. feminist (talk) Слава Україні! 15:25, 13 March 2022 (UTC)- Thank you for your detailed response. I do feel like our takeaways from the discussion and from these project pages are quite different. The dividing line in this RM wasn't between two groups, each of whom thought only one aspect of primary topics was important (that would have been odd: both aspects are always relevant, and we shouldn't disregard one of them simply because fewer people bothered to comment on it). What we have instead is one group who felt that one article had long-term significance (there was no acceptable evidence for that: as was already pointed out in the discussion,
historical age is not determinative
: WP:DPT). The other group similarly had a feeling, though in the opposite direction: no single topic having more significance, but that in turn matched the conclusively demonstrated fact that there was no primary topic with respect to usage. As the closing instructions point out,[c]onsensus is not determined by counting heads or counting votes
, and closers should discount arguments that arebased on personal opinion only
. – Uanfala (talk) 15:59, 13 March 2022 (UTC)- Based on my understanding of WP:PTOPIC, there is a difference between "historical age" and "long-term significance". The former refers merely to how old a topic is without regard for its significance, e.g. Anne Hathaway (wife of Shakespeare) has historical age but is not the primary topic for "Anne Hathaway". The latter applies to topics which have existed for a long time and have remained significant over its period of existence, e.g. Apple is the PTOPIC over Apple Inc. both because of its age and because it has remained significant throughout its existence. It is acceptable to justify that the maritime topic is the PTOPIC for "dock" on the basis that it has remained significant on a long-term basis; in contrast, if the reasoning were "it existed thousands of years ago", then that would be a weak argument based merely on historical age.
- With regards to usage, no one supporting the move justified it on the basis of
no single topic having more significance
; instead, they either regarded the maritime topic as the PTOPIC on the basis that a reader is more likely to seek the maritime topic than all other topics combined, or regarded this as a situation where usage alone does not indicate a PTOPIC. As far as I can see, there is no single way to determine whether something ishighly likely
...to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term,
so I hesitate to agree that it isconclusively demonstrated
...that there was no primary topic with respect to usage.
- In any case, WP:PTOPIC states that
in many other cases, only one sense of primacy is relevant.
In other words, it is acceptable to regard a topic as PTOPIC even if it meets only one aspect of PTOPIC. In the RM discussion, no editor suggested that some other topic other than the maritime topic may be the PTOPIC for "dock". Hence, if there is rough consensus in an RM discussion that a topic is primary with respect to long-term significance, the discussion can appropriately be closed as move. - Anyway, it seems to me that we are going back-and-forth over this discussion without much progress towards agreement, so I'll take this to move review and let other editors have a go at it. feminist (talk) Слава Україні! 18:37, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- I've created Wikipedia:Move_review/Log/2022 March#Dock for an outside opinion. feminist (talk) Слава Україні! 18:46, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for that. Just a note that when when there is a disambiguation page at the base title, then we have access to data that tells us exactly what readers want when they land on that page: that's the clickstream dataset, which is visualised by Wikinav. For this type of RMs, these tools have largely rendered pageviews obsolete. – Uanfala (talk) 19:02, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- I am aware of this tool. It's not perfect because although it provides the source of incoming traffic (e.g. Google, Bing, etc.) it doesn't provide what the reader searched for in Google/Bing/other search engine. Because we don't know what the reader searched for to reach the WP article, we cannot always tell what
the topic sought when a reader searches for that term
is simply via clickstream data. Hence, web search results are still relevant to determining PTOPIC status with regards to usage (I prefer DuckDuckGo to minimize geographical differences). I agree that clickstream can be an especially useful tool than page views in situations where some topics can be referred to using multiple names. feminist (talk) Слава Україні! 02:57, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Seeking feedback on proposed edits
Hello, I see you've done some work on the Voto Latino article and I thought you would be a good person to seek feedback from about some edits I'm proposing. Full disclosure, I am a paid editor and as such, I've suggested edits to the Wilmer Valderrama article. He has worked with Voto Latino since the organization started but the article about his does not mention it, or any of his other activism work. Since many pages about famous people describe their activism and philanthropy, I've posted suggested sections on the talk page and requested review.
The review is still pending, but I wanted to seek the feedback of experienced editors who contribute to related articles. I would love to know if you think the content is acceptable so I can work on it if necessary. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks. SBCornelius (talk) 20:28, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

RfD closure
Hi, would you please consider revising your closure located at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 March 19#TERF-related redirects? That venue is not the venue for reaching consensus on what articles should cover what topics, and more importantly, other participants were not aware that re-working articles (rather than redirect pointings regarding existing articles) was seriously being decided. I would have opposed such a proposal, as explained here by me and others, and anyway, it is more properly handled by a request to split. The current setup is the result of many discussions by many more editors than were present at the RfD. This does not necessitate altering the conclusion about where the redirects should point.

Viatris stock index listings
Hi Feminist. I would like to discuss whether Viatris's Infobox should include the fact that the company is listed on the Russell 1000 Index and the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index, since you removed those indices on April 27. According to the documentation at Template:Infobox company, there seems to be no problem adding additional indices that the company is a component of: "Information about the company's status as a component of a major index can also be added." Other publicly traded companies list multiple indices when applicable, such as Vimeo, Gilead Sciences and Novavax. I hope you will reconsider your edit and add back the two indices to the Infobox. Thanks so much. PittGuy123ABC (talk) 14:40, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hi PittGuy123ABC, most articles about publicly-traded American corporations contain listings of Dow Jones, S&P and Nasdaq-100 indices because these are generally considered the most significant stock market indices in the US based on usage and search interest. In my experience, only if a company is not included in any of these indices are they be listed as a component of less significant indices such as the Russell 1000 or 2000. Note MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE:
keep in mind the purpose of an infobox: to summarize (and not supplant) key facts that appear in the article ... The less information it contains, the more effectively it serves that purpose, allowing readers to identify key facts at a glance.
Most (if not all) members of the S&P 500 are also members of the Russell 1000, making the latter designation redundant. As for the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index, I have rarely if ever seen it on other articles, and it does not appear to be a "major index" compared to the likes of DJIA and S&P 500. I'm happy to start a site-wide discussion/RFC on this issue if necessary. feminist (talk) 10:43, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

Chiang Mai
I'm curious why you created Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai/doc, which is rife with ParserFunction errors because there is no corresponding Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai. I see we do have Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai Province, which you have edited. The only reason this caught my eye is that I look at Category:ParserFunction errors from time to time. Deor (talk) 15:09, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Deor, I created Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai before realizing the existence of Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai Province. I have therefore nominated the former for speedy deletion under WP:G7 because it was redundant to the latter location map. Module:Location map/data/Thailand Chiang Mai/doc should have been deleted under WP:G8 which was not done; I have just nominated it for G8 speedy deletion.

Temu flag fixes
Hi, I have posted Talk:Temu (company)#Request for more clean up and removing flag to ask for fixes to the page about Temu (company), the most downloaded app in the United States the last few months. [1] These tiny fixes address the last issues needed to remove the flag. . I have a conflict of interest as an employee of Temu and I would very much appreciate it if you might have time to take a look. Since you are a member of the WikiProject for Internet Culture, I thought you might possibly be interested in this internet cultural moment. [2], [3]. This page is in need of careful expansion in compliance with Wikipedia policy (and there is plenty of press coverage) but getting rid of the last tiny policy violations is a good place to start.

Hi Feminist, I hope you're doing well 😁 The chances are you don't remember me because back then my user name was different, but you gave me very helpful guidance and information after approving my first article about Grace Ho, and I never forgot it. You simplified things for me in a way where they made sense, which made me want to become more of an active editor on the project. I am happy to say now I have made over 2,000+ edits, 24 articles, and promoted one of my articles to GA status! You really started me out on my journey though, and I felt a Barnstar was the least I could do. Thank you again! Johnson524 (Talk!) 02:09, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
