Coloni / Raphanel

The reason for Raphanel being shown as driving the FC188B in Hungary is that his C3 broke during PQ and he jumped in the FC188B. Here's a pic of the poor sod walking back [1]. I do not know for sure which car he was driving when he set his fastest time, which was hopelessly slow anyway. Steve Small's GP Driver Who's Who states it was the FC188B, even though he was entered in the C3. That was the reason for the table being the way it was. How you process that info is up to you, but I thought I'd clarify it for you since you're in a Coloni mood. Good work, by the way. Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:20, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• Thanks for the explanation Bretonbanquet - the stats sites I was looking at seemed to indicate that he used the FC189/C3 at that race, so I went with that. Not sure where the supposed FC3 came from, but then, I'd seen the Leyton House CG911 randomly described as a "CG991" in a couple of places on here... I'm surprised the C3 didn't already have an article, particularly due to the farcical Subaru engine only ever being used in that car. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:32, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
  • No worries. I think those cars were called various things (not all of them polite), and I've also seen the C3 called the FC89, as well as FC3. All the modern stats sites copy from each other so you'll usually only find the weird and wonderful info in contemporary sources, books / magazines etc. As for Raphanel in Hungary, I'm sure he started off in the C3, but I can't get to the bottom of whether he set his "fast" time in that car or the spare FC188B. I'm sure he didn't care by that time anyway, and he must have been very glad to avoid the Subaru debacle. F1 was way more interesting back then ;) Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:44, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• It wouldn't be the first time that a car has been given a bazillion different names! I often wonder exactly what Roberto Moreno could've done with a sustained run in a midfield car, rather than being bounced around between a whole bunch of them, most of them hopeless. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:50, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• Yeah, exactly – one of a number of drivers at that time who got caught up in a spiral of awful cars without ever getting a proper, sustained opportunity. A lot of chancers seemed to own teams back then, and they collectively wrecked some promising driving careers. Then Bernie made it really expensive to enter F1, and all those little teams disappeared sooner or later. Better for the image of the sport, but the downside is that a lot of good drivers now can't even get into F1, even in a hopeless car. Not sure which situation I prefer! Bretonbanquet (talk) 19:04, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• It's hard to say. I'd certainly welcome a 26 or 28 car grid, even if it was essentially a two-tier system. The workings of F1 have always been baffling; how did the likes of de Cesaris get so many decent drives, and yet far more talented and dependable drivers didn't? Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:53, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• I agree with you – more cars will always generate more excitement, even if some of them are useless. Haha, poor de Cesaris, may he R.I.P. He was a pretty handy guy towards the end of his career, but it is somewhat remarkable how he continued to get good seats while perpetually smashing cars up. He makes Maldonado look like a safe pair of hands... Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:27, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

• Don't know if you noticed, Bretonbanquet, but I put an article together on the Subaru 1235 anchor, sorry, engine. Looks like it was used in the WSC as well, with fairly predictable results... Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:56, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

• Good work! It just proves what I've always thought, that failure is more interesting than success! Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:00, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

• It often is, yes. I intend to continue filling in the remaining holes in our Formula One coverage over time; I just wish there was a F1 Rejects equivalent for sports car racing, as that would make my life there a heck of a lot easier! Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:02, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

• Lots of holes in our F1 coverage, especially with back-of-the-grid teams, drivers and cars. A Sports Cars F1 Rejects... hmmm...! Might be a big website! Good fun though. Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:05, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

• Indeed it would, Bretonbanquet, even just based on some of the articles I've written about a few major flops that are often forgotten; one example being the Ford G7. (Not sure how I missed your reply here). Just finished an article on the infinitely more promising Fondmetal GR02; if only the gearbox hadn't been made out of potatoes and the team had some money! Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 02:18, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
  • I guess it's our job to make sure these companies aren't allowed to forget their flops! Ah yes, I remember the Fondmetal as I was a bit of a Tarquini fan at the time. I really thought the guy could be a points-scorer in the right car. Chiesa not so much! A classic example of a basically good car, and a good bunch of guys there, but a serious lack of cash. Then the more problems they had, the less cash they had; that old vicious circle. I also remember eyebrows being raised when the Forti FG01 appeared to be a rehash of the GR02, and of course by that time it was a total dog. Shame! Another great article though, good work :) Bretonbanquet (talk) 12:12, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• Thanks :) I just wish I'd been around at that time, and not been merely a twinkle in my parent's eyes, as there was so much more variety everywhere back then. Nowadays, the only major competition with a massive amount of variety is the British Touring Car Championship and perhaps some of the GT series; but even those are more closely related than they once were. The Ford G7 project was frankly hilarious to read about; quite how Ford management let that car keep their name on it, I don't know. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 12:15, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
  • It definitely seemed like there was more going on in those days, and the whole sport is more homogenised and sanitised today. But the coverage then was nothing like it is now. No internet! You really had to scout around to find out what you wanted to know. I remember standing in the newsagent's reading Autosport every week because I couldn't afford to buy it... Yeah, haha, the G7 was a shocker. Why on earth anyone persevered with it, I have no idea. These days Ford would have bought all the cars back and scrapped them to avoid further embarrassment! Bretonbanquet (talk) 13:08, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• Absolutely, and that's why there are so many holes in our sportscar coverage here, even when it comes to works/semi-works cars and very successful ones! Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 14:28, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• If only we had enough space at home for a full run of 1960s-1990s copies of Autosport! Bretonbanquet (talk) 14:38, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• They'd probably get lost at my place, in amongst piles of laptops that I really need to get around to finishing and selling... Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 14:54, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• Haha, you can always rely on work to get in your way ;) Bretonbanquet (talk) 17:12, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey Lukeno94!!

Why did you restore move protection to Windows Vista? Why? I want to know why. 216.145.89.170 (talk) 22:46, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• Firstly, you didn't remove the move protection. Only admins can do that, and I'm not an admin. Secondly, you removed the move protection template from a move protected page, which is inappropriate. Thirdly, all of your edits today suggest that you at trolling, so please, do something productive. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 22:48, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Would you have any suggestions?

A few months ago during the eventually unsuccessful Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Piotrus_3 you voted "oppose". I wonder if you'd like to discuss any concerns of yours (you did express some very strong reservations, to say the least), or if you would have any suggestions in the event I'd decide to run again (which I am not planning to do anytime soon, but might consider in the future). For a better sense of my work and activities around the project, I invite you to consider reviewing my userpage, my talk page archives (which are not redacted), to watchlist my talk page, or use edit analysis tools like Wikichecker, content.paragr, dewkin, xtools-pages or xtools-ec (which in theory should work as of late 2014...). Thank you for your time, (PS. If you reply here, I'd appreciate a WP:ECHO or {{talkback}} ping). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:38, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• Piotr, it was a year ago so I can't remember specifics; I'll just go on what I can see in that RfA. I stand by my analysis of your response to question 4; even if it was too much of a loaded question, there are much better ways of responding to it. The most obvious thing is talking about how you'd gone on to resolve the issues ArbCom brought up at the time, how you'd changed your behaviour since then, or simply stated that "I don't feel this question is neutrally worded enough to answer", or something along those lines. Making a joke about being married just made it look like you weren't taking things seriously. Question 5's answer also showed that as well; you hadn't changed your answers in a significant way from the previous RfA, and the fact that you seemed to be implying "nothing has changed" makes it hard to support you, when you'd failed that previous RfA. In terms of your more recent conduct at that time, well, I would've been going on what was presented on the RfA by other users. Personally, I'm not certain that you applying for adminship again is ever going to work; too many people are going to oppose you based on the 2009 incident even now, and every little action of yours is going to be under the microscope as a result. I certainly think that waiting another year would be sensible. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 14:34, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for getting back to me. In question 4, I was trying to point out it was a logical fallacy, but yes, I was too smartsy-pantsy. I have no problem with everything I do being under the microscope, as I have nothing to hide. But yes, you are right it may be good to let things cool down for another year; I can already see some people opposing what they'd denounce as a "yearly event" by know... Would you mind helping me answer the questions better? By saying "nothing has changed", I was trying to say "I have been doing nothing but uncontroversial, helpful edits since the 2009 incident". Clearly, I didn't word it well. How would you go about it? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 23:44, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

• I honestly don't know; I'm a Chemist/computer geek, not a linguist. As such, the finer points of how to word things are beyond me; I just know what looks right and looks wrong to me personally. What I would say is that it would be best to just approach the questions from scratch, and answer them with new words; don't even look at your previous answers for them, just do totally new ones with how you feel now. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:47, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your honesty

Thanks for your honesty at a recent discussion, Luke. I do respect your thoughts and you may be right. I appreciate that you voiced that you respect mine. Hopefully we will get to work with each other someday. Cheers. Prhartcom (talk) 16:45, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

• There's few things as annoying as pure sheep at AfDs (in one of those discussions, at least); and I know full well that I was one of them once. The main thing is that you weren't being a total sheep there. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 16:48, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
  • You are so right; I've felt that way about "sheep" for awhile but never mentioned it to anyone or read anyone call it what it is, and that is good to hear we are in agreement about that; you probably noticed in my first sentence I made reference to this phenomenon.

Pings

Just a heads-up; this probably didn't do what you expected as pings only work if they are done at the same time as you sign and date, as it needs that for the notification. Most annoying that it doesn't and fails silently, but difficult to see how else it could work. It also needs to be in a section with a header for the link, and you're limited to 20 pings at once; not a problem in this case.

Cactusjackbangbang

Regarding this, an SPI has been filed at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cactusjackbangbang. Regardless of the AfD, I think it's obvious there is a sock farm going after Neelix, and that Jdh9 is part of it. They made three edits, and then jumped right into both AfDs of Neelix articles. I don't see why we should allow further disruption. --Laser brain (talk) 20:11, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

• When a user has edits outside of the AfD on completely unrelated subject matters (or at least, not particularly obvious subject matters), it is inappropriate to automatically remove the vote based on a sockpuppet allegation, particularly if they've made an opposing vote to yours (as happened in this case; I know you didn't do the reverting, but that's not what I'm saying). I'm well aware of the sockpuppet/meatpuppet farm that is targeting Neelix; in fact, I've alluded to it on multiple occasions in that AfD, and if I saw a user make their first edit in that AfD voting to delete, I would remove it myself. We should not, after all, assume someone is guilty until proven innocent; that is the wrong way around entirely, and AGF does just stretch far enough to be relevant here (other possible explanations being that they were canvassed). Let's not forget that the account does predate the AfDs, after all. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 20:16, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

• Fair enough. I can see the case for erring on the side of AGF. --Laser brain (talk) 20:19, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

• I'm glad that you can. If Jdh9 is blocked for being a sock, then I'd happily remove the edit myself. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 20:20, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Neymar: Semi-protected edit request on 15 January 2015

Hi there.

I see you have rejected my suggestion for an addition of a section called "Tattoos" to Neymar's page, on the base of "as per WP:TRIVIA". I am new to Wikipedia, so I don't understand if you have denied it because you find the content unappropriated or if you need me to write the subject down as I think it should be written in the page. I have done the suggestion the way I did just because I thought it was the correct way to propose it.

In case you consider that the topic is unappropriated, I ask you to please reconsider based on the following two reasons:

1. Other players already have such a section, like David Beckham, Raul Meireles, other (didn't bother to look around) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Beckham https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raul_Meireles

2. In "WP:TRIVIA" I found nothing against my suggestion, and it is stated:

• "(...) A trivia section is one that contains a disorganized and "unselective" list. However, a selectively populated list with a relatively narrow theme is not necessarily trivia, and can be the best way to present some types of information. (...)
• "(...) If information is otherwise suitable, it is better that it be poorly presented than not presented at all. (...)"

I appreciate your answer, and excuse my lack of experience in Wikipedia.

Thank you in advance.

• Firstly, Luisa; welcome to Wikipedia! (I've left a welcome note on your talk page). The simplest response to this is that, on Wikipedia, just because one article contains information on a particular subject, it doesn't mean that another has to. Now, if Neymar's tattoos were the subject of discussion in various independent reliable sources, then it might be something that is valid to include; you only referenced one source, which was a primary one. However, I don't think tattoos are a particularly encyclopaedic topic; a lot of people have them, and they're not really relevant. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 20:25, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

• Hi Luke,

thank you for the welcome note, I will check it carefully soon. There are many reliable sources talking about Neymar's tattoos, nevertheless, the "primary source" I have indicated for the edit is the only one I could find that makes a good gathering of all information. I believe that for this topic (of tattoos) it's irrelevant to have a "reliable source", as looking at tattoos in photos and transcribing them does not require any proven reliability, and its veracity is easily verifiable by anyone. Isn't your statement regarding tattoos "(...) a lot of people have them, and they're not really relevant" showing that you are letting your personal opinion about tattoos interfere with your decision? To the fans, to Neymar, and to many other people who consider tattoos an art the tattoos are certainly relevant. Don't you agree with me?

(sorry if I am answering this the wrong way - through an edit - but I found no other way).

Cheers, Luisa— Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinheiro a (talk • contribs) 21:16, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

• I don't have any issues with tattoos; the issue is that including information about them in a person's article is generally trivia, and Wikipedia isn't about trivia. Everything on Wikipedia revolves around reliable sources, and I'm not disputing the reliability of the source here, hence the comment "independent". Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 21:44, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, another bold statement: "Wikipedia isn't about trivia". Check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Handling_trivia In this page it is clear that relevant trivia should be included in the articles, and only "trivia sections" should be avoided. Trivia should be integrated in the text without creating trivia sections. In this specific case, I believe the topic "tattoos" could be part of his "personal life" section. Just out of curiosity, isn't the statement "Neymar is a Christian" on his personal life also Trivia? It is also written in the page I referred above - regarding handling trivia by wikipedia - that: "(...) It is not reasonable to disallow all information that some editors feel is unimportant, because that information could be important to some readers. (...)". Therefore, it looks like you are one of these editors who block content to his likes (I recommend some introspection). I feel this discussion will lead nowhere, so thank you for your time.

ANI revert

Hello Lukeno94. Please don't get upset when you get the revert-notification about one of your edits I undid at the ANI-Binksternet thread. Most of the reasons for my action I stated already in the edit summary. Fact is that Mr. Guye added an oppose vote after the original withdrawal, and then it was hidden in an "extended content" box, but not deleted. Later, Blue Salix added a support vote, and you deleted it. Having yourself voted oppose, I'm really uncertain what to think about it. Although the proposal was withdrawn, and the instruction "please do not add anything" has been followed by almost everyone, the thread was not formally closed. In my opinion, none of the involved voters, including me, should redact other peoples' edits there. (Please answer here, if you like, I'll watchlist it.) Kraxler (talk) 14:13, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

• Well, it would've made everyone's lives easier if, after the proposal was withdrawn, someone would've actually closed the damn thing. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 16:08, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

In principle, I agree with you. (However, the thread was archived, but never formally closed, in the meanwhile.) But then, at the last moment we were presented with Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive869#Something for both sides to keep in mind. I think that was an important contribution to the underlying discussion of the infobox-succession box-imbroglio. "What we don't do is create little content fiefdoms by using a project or a template as a backdoor to impose changes over a broad swath of articles without seeking consensus amongst the editors there as to how content will be handled there." disagrees sharply with Number57's closing rationale at Template talk:Infobox officeholder/Archive 18#RfC on successor/predecessor where a district is not reasonably viewed as the same after redistricting. The question is: "Can 12 people, 11 of whom do not usually edit in the area of congressmen, establish "consensus" for a change that affects several thousand articles, by citing rationales likes "agree" or "per the above/per User N.N.", or giving the rationale "it declutters the box" when writing "redistricted" in place of a person's name leaves the box of the exact same size, at a "hidden" venue without notifying the pertaining wiki projects?" Redacted The RfC was added to RfCs on "Politics, government, and law" and "Biographies", the header is discarded at archiving. For me it was an eye-opener, and has made the whole report worth it's while. As far as I could ascertain, the change to "redistricted" in the infobox was actually done only at Michael Grimm, Charles B. Rangel, and the four Californians of Binksternet, and nowhere else. So there is another question: "Can somebody drum up a few people to establish "consensus" that affects several thousand articles, to use the new "consensus" only at his two pet articles, and provoke everybody who comes across them and notes the inconsistency, into an argument eventually leading to edit-warring about it?" Kraxler (talk) 13:12, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

• I have/had no idea about the exact context at hand, and frankly, it didn't matter. All I saw was a bunch of people jumping on Binksternet in an excessive manner, seeking a 0RR restriction, which seemed nuts. A 1RR restriction might've been more sensible, and certainly would've required more than a passing glance to determine... but 0RR? I'd forgotten you'd filed that particular request, and I don't see why you didn't archive it when you withdrew it; the "something for both sides to keep in mind" came four days after you withdrew your request. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 13:20, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

That was my first ANI report. The 0RR was probably over the top, as soon as I recognized that, I withdrew it. Next time I need to report something there I'll try it with 1RR. As to archiving it myself, I'm not sure that would have been a good move. Just to close formally a withdrawn proposal led to another controversy. I'm not sure what would have happened if I had archived it. It was eventually archived by a bot. Kraxler (talk) 14:43, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

• Ah, I see what's going on here. You and I are referring to two different sorts of archiving; you're talking about the one where the bot moves it to an archive page, whilst I'm referring to the method of archiving using the archive top and archive bottom templates on a withdrawn/closed discussion.

Ethnicities in leads

What's up with this revert? It looks like it's correcting an MOS violation, so I'm curious as to the motivation for the series of reversions.—Kww(talk) 19:34, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

• Main article explicitly states she is French-Canadian (that article is a GA, so I doubt it's much of a violation, if any); besides, look at the rapid-fire changes with no attempt to discuss, and you'll see why I pulled the trigger. Also note the personal attacks and flurries of vandalism by this user since being reverted. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:37, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
• An example of the rubbish that got thrown into articles afterwards. User in question was clearly trolling. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:39, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
• Note that I have no issue with either nationality being used, and used consistently; but changing it at that rate, as a brand-new user, without any explanation or consensus is simply not OK. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:43, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

I'll look into it. It looks to me like a bit of ethnic pride has led to an MOS (and potentially BLP) violation. I agree the editor himself may be trouble, and I will look into that as well.—Kww(talk) 19:52, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

• Editor in question has been indefinitely blocked for vandalism (which is quite right, for their reactions to the reversions were blatant vandalism). I don't think it's a BLP violation as it does seem to be directly sourced in the main article, but I'm not super familiar with the nuances of the MOS, so can't really argue that one too much. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:54, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Rugby union transfer pages

Do you have any problems with the rugby union transfer pages? Nobody has broken any rules at all. I am doing something that is upsetting you or not? NikeCage68 (talk) 17:51, 29 January (UTC)

• The ones I have nominated for deletion violate WP:CRYSTAL and WP:TOOSOON (for all bar one of them, we don't even have regular season articles yet!) Personally, I don't think any of these transfer articles should exist, as practically no other sport has such things, but that's not the issue at hand. It has nothing to do with any specific editor, although it was the edit warring that brought them to my attention. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:55, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

If this is just some edit warring that has just become silly, then there is no problem. These transfer pages are not causing any problems. Is this correct? NikeCage68 (talk) 20:43, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

• The edit warring was silly, yes, but the pages still don't satisfy Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 21:22, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

These transfer edits have happened for several years from other editors. Several editors debated about this and afterwards these transfer edits were moved to new pages. That was all. They just left it alone entirely afterwards and let the editing to continue. Why do you think this does not satisfy Wikipedia's inclusion criteria since it started to happen years ago? If this was really a serious problem, would you have stopped this some time ago? NikeCage68 (talk) 17:48, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• I'm going to say this one last time; the only pages I nominated for deletion were for future seasons. Lists of transfers for future seasons violate WP:CRYSTAL and WP:TOOSOON. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:39, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I know what you are saying. No offense. I am just asking politely that these current (2015-16 season) transfer pages are going to get deleted, right. NikeCage68 (talk) 19:27, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• The discussion about whether they are valid or not should be held on the AfD pages. I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to say, but the AfD pages will decide if they are to be deleted or kept. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 19:40, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I understand, okay. It was just misspelling on my part. I just needed to know who decides on this matter. How long will this problem be solved? NikeCage68 (talk) 20:02, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• Consensus of multiple editors decides this matter, and it will take at least a week from the initial nomination. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 20:51, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Alright. I still think the transfer pages should not be deleted but will just have to wait and see what happens. NikeCage68 (talk) 20:59, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

English footballer heights

Hello Lukeno94. I don't understand why you don't want to obey the Wikipedia MOS guidelines which says use feet and inches first for English people. I live in England and know it is true. The footballer's trade union, the Professional Footballers' Association, produce the football bible called "The PFA Footballers' Who's Who" and that uses only feet and inches for heights with no meters. We should follow the English customs and the WP rules I think. Speccy4Eyes (talk) 23:31, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• I live in England as well, but it's not quite as clear cut as "it is true". I'm pretty sure there was a discussion about this recently on WP:Football, but I can't remember what the outcome was. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:32, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Do you believe that more English people use meters than feet and inches then? And why do you think the PFA only use feet and inches and not meters if meters should be used? And why do you want to ignore WP:UNITS? Speccy4Eyes (talk) 23:38, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• Question 1: I think that it varies quite a lot, depending on which age group you ask. Question 2: Websites can do whatever the heck they want. Question 3: I don't, but I remember there being a recent discussion on WT:WikiProject Football; just not the result of it (I recommend you go and look up the debate). Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:45, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

I think even kids and younger people mainly use feet and inches for height, like their mums and dads do. But most people in total do for def. If you don't want to ignore WP:UNITS then will you agree with my requests at the Man City players to put feet and inches first then please? Speccy4Eyes (talk) 23:51, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• I don't particularly plan to get involved in any further debates on this matter (or to continue in the Lampard one). Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:52, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

You say you don't want to disagree with WP:UNITS, but you've just scuppered my attempt to comply with it. I want to see feet and inches so am trying to get an agreement. Will you remove your disagreement if you don't want involvement please? Speccy4Eyes (talk) 23:57, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

• I don't really see the need to. I just intend to disengage completely from this debate (and please don't message me again about it) Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 00:21, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Reverts to GCR Class 8B and GCR Class 8G

Hi,

The reason that I removed Category:London and North Eastern Railway locomotives from GCR Class 8B and GCR Class 8G, is that they are already in that category via the redirects under their LNER class – LNER Class C4 and LNER Class B9 respectively. None of the other ex-GC, GE, GN, NB, or NE locomotive articles are in that category either – they also have redirects from their LNER class. Just as well really – it would be very messy if they were. See commons:Category:London and North Eastern Railway steam locomotives to see what I mean. Regards – Iain Bell (talk) 15:25, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

Essex V4

Hello , I've been working and adding as much information as I can to the Essex V4 engine page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Essex_V4_engine , and I was wondering if you could upload and add a picture maybe ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurie Lind (talk • contribs) 17:06, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Before uploading, one first has to have such a picture. To meet Commons rules, such a picture has to be "freely licensed". In most cases that comes down to the uploader taking the photo themselves and then choosing to give it such a free licence. It's rare that an editor can find such an image, belonging to another owner and that it has a suitable licence already. What we can't do (as you've done previously) is to take someone else's image and then try to add a licence to it. If it's not your image, you don't get to choose its licence.

As you're clearly interested in Ford engines, do you go to any of the Ford-related car shows? Can you take a photo there? Do you even have your own car already? - doesn't have to be concours! Just take a picture of that. Andy Dingley (talk) 17:19, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

Quique Flores

Hi there LUKE, ALWAYSLEARNING (or what's left of him) "here",

regarding your change of lead in this article, I can't really say that I agree with it, I tend to keep intros concise, your version looks like a second storyline with all due respect, but we have to respect each other around here and work as a team, so all I can say is "keep up the good work".

Speaking of respect (or lack thereof), thanks for reverting the punk that's been on my case for three years (on and off) because of the Flores article, now he changes from insults (some vile) to social service ("Go find a girlfriend"), "nice" of him... More details on his interaction with me and the resulting "kindness" can be found here.

Cheers, happy week --84.90.219.128 (talk) 18:41, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

• I GTranslated the insult, just because I was curious about what they'd said. The problem with the previous lead was that it really didn't give enough detail, and wasn't really in-line with the "standard" recommended way of doing things; "main club" isn't defined properly, and his spell at Real Madrid was definitely worthy of proper note. He also has had a large amount of managerial jobs, yet it really didn't give any specifics there. For example, noting that he's managed Getafe twice gives a bit of extra context. There's always a few people who simply can't move on from past disputes; sadly, looks like you've found one of them. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:56, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

International Goals dispute

Why was mine stated as "unexplained revert" when PeeJay did the exact same thing to me? (btw him saying int'l goals aren't necessary isn't good enough for me). If these international goals are against consensus, where do I see them stated in the guidelines or discussions? I asked him this and he ignored me. Also, if international goals are so useless, whey do they show up on majority of articles for footballers? Why aren't these removed from other player's pages? There is absolutely no consistency and I'm not seeing it stated anywhere saying that it's "against consensus."

Also Thierry Henry which is a featured article contains an international goals section, so don't tell me Park Ji-sung is some sort of special case.

Please let me know when you have a chance. Thanks. GWST11 (talk) 07:18, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

• Just because one editor has made an unexplained revert does not give you the right to do the same thing. The fact that you've deliberately - and rather lamely - threatened to edit war over this is just disappointing. The chart shouldn't be in Henry's article, and I've since removed it. WP:NOTSTATS is the most obvious explanation of why they're invalid. There are several discussions where it was generally decided not to include such laundry lists of goals; [2], [3], [4], [5] etc. Granted, there's no one concrete discussion where it was decided "we will not use these", but general consensus is clearly against their inclusion. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 07:35, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
• It's also worth noting that concrete discussions about assists columns in tables have been had, and come to solid results of not including them; however, many articles still do, because no-one has bothered to remove them yet. Ditto a few with yellow/red cards. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 07:36, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you for the detailed explanation. Personally I believe they are a great source of information. International games are different from club football (bigger competition, representing the country instead a city, and the stats won't accumulate too much - less caps). Assists are useless I agree. Anyways I will not make any further changes without discussing/collaborating first.GWST11 (talk) 07:43, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

Regarding the collected edition edits.

How are they "nonsensical"? They are simply listings of the reprinted material (content and ISBN numbers) which help the reader find the actual books themselves. By the way most comic book entries on wikipedia have a collected edition sections and they are a helpful reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by UseableID (talk • contribs) 21:39, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

• Firstly, UseableID, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS means that just because something is present in one article, doesn't mean it should be in another. Secondly, there is no context given for these comic book lists, nor is there any evidence for why they should be there. Thirdly, in some of these articles, if you were to include every single comic that mentions a character, the list would be about the same size as China... Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 21:43, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

So i'm assuming you will be deleting more, if not every section of collected editions on comic book entries? — Preceding unsigned comment added by UseableID (talk • contribs) 21:49, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

• Only the ones I see. I don't have the time to go through every article and delete every single mention (I also have far better things to do with my time). Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 21:51, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

I still think it is useful infromation to have on the page. Why do you think it isn't helpful to know where to find the source material? It is the same as TV show pages listing detailed DVD and/or blu ray releases as to let the readers know which set has which episodes. The collected editions sections is the same but for comics. They are called TPB's. Obviously every appearance isn't written down on the entry, just the selected reprints which are the collected editions.UseableID (talk) 22:31, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

• All of those things probably fall under WP:FANCRUFT, unless there's actual prose dedicated to them. Laundry lists of random comic publications are not encyclopaedic, and only belong on a fan wiki, I'm afraid. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 22:39, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

I am familar with "fancruft", but I don't see how listing the most current available formats of the material discussed in the entries falls under "fancruft". It is simply a note of what stories of the character are available for the reader to borrow/purchase/find in real life. Specifically the popular or major stories which are mentioned in the entries themselves are the only ones to be "collected" in the first place, hence my listing of them on these entries.UseableID (talk) 23:19, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

• Any definition of "collectable" is going to be pure original research, I'm afraid. Also, Wikipedia is not a directory or listing for random comic book publications. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:26, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Use of rollback

Hello. It seems that you have been using the rollback feature a lot lately for edits that are not blatantly vandalism, [6], [7], [8] etc... If you are going to use the rollback feature to revert widespread edits by a misguided editor which are judged to be unhelpful to the encyclopedia, you must provide an explanation in an appropriate location, such as at the relevant talk page. Puffin ^{Let's talk!} 02:10, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

• I would personally consider editors who make blanket changes like that, without any explanation, to be vandals (removing a valid category just because it doesn't support your PoV is a pretty good sign of that in my eyes). This is one of the more subtle ones, I will grant you that. Call it a lack of good faith if you will, but it's just based on plenty of prior experience. Also, the reason why it seems like I have used rollback a lot recently is quite simple; I haven't had time to do more than revert vandals/unconstructive editors over the last few weeks, so the reverting isn't buried in amongst the content building I would usually be doing as well - and would prefer to be doing!

Hi Luke. I see some recent edits were made to Pepe Massot's entry specifically for the 2014 season.

Global Peace and Unity

Dear Lukeno94, I hope you are well. Please could you have a look at the recent edits on the Global Peace and Unity page? Am I missing something? The last editor keeps re-inserting unreferenced contentious claims, but says they are referenced. Thank you, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 13:39, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

• I'm afraid, in this instance, you are the one who was incorrect. The new user is referring to the citations at the end of the sentence "Critics pointed at that speakers at the event included", which very clearly mention all four of those people. Equally, when you removed the names, you left in the aforementioned sentence, which made it look odd. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 13:59, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Ahhh yes, you are quite right. For some reason I couldn't see what was right in front of me. Thank you Luke. Regards, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 14:16, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
