WP:Hornbook -- a new WP:Law task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi Khavakoz,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

• Each casebook will have a subpage.

• Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
• It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
• Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

• I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

• Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
• Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Call for consensus/conclusion to current Ireland rugby union team icon

Hello, I am contacting you because you have been an active participant in the recent discussion on icon to be used for Ireland rugby union. I have tried to summarise the many strands and come to a conclusion based on what I perceive the consensus to be in this section - Summary of Ireland Flag discussion and suggested consensus conclusion. To move the issue to a conclusion I am asking all participants who have signed the discussion to read my summary and comment on the validity of the approach I have advocated, before the issue goes cold. I am keen that the enormous efforts of all contributors results in a tangible conclusion on this occasion.Kwib (talk) 16:34, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

ANI closings

Unless you are an administrator, you shouldn't have closed that ANI report. GoodDay (talk) 16:27, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

I wasn't aware that I'd closed it. I thought that was closed by Kudpung? Khavakoz (talk) 16:33, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

My apologies, you K fellows look similar. PS - Don't forget to delete your post-close comments in that ANI report. GoodDay (talk) 16:37, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

No. I had entered my comments while the ANI was still open. As such I am permitted to have them retained in the report. The report was still open when I did my final preview, it appears Kudpung and I hit publish almost simultaneously.Khavakoz (talk) 16:45, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

Information

In the event you do not have the article talk page watch listed at Coins of Ireland: I've semi-protected the article due to edit warring. I'm cautioning all editors to seek a consensus here before editing the article with regard to this particular point. I'm taking this step to avoid blocks; however, blocks will be likely should the edit war continue without consensus. Tiderolls 22:03, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

As someone who hadn't edited the article, and merely posted in the talk page, I heartily support your actions. As I see matters, this matter escalated when one editor, instead of seeking consensus, opted instead to escalate the matter through brigading, escalating to an ANI without discussion, and edit warring. He's now making unsupported allegations of socking, and has chosen to do so in the Talk page where Consensus has been sought. Khavakoz (talk) 13:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

NPOV

Please be more careful when throwing spurious claims of non-NPOV about. Northern Ireland is part of the UK fact no POV about it. Yes it is part of the island of Ireland but the recent issue over British and Irish was not referring to landmasses but to governments/states so your statement was pointless and itself contentious POV that did more stirring than anything else. The issue is sorted now anyways, good day. Mabuska ^(talk) 10:21, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

Why do you claim that my allegation of non-NPOV is spurious? GoodDay has previously been sanctioned for removing diacritical marks in UK&Ireland articles - diacritics which are used in the Irish Language - on the grounds that this is an english wikipedia. In the case of the article this all refers to, he pretends to be basing an erroneous ordering of words on alphabetical order. I'd say that his actions are a direct, ongoing, and repeated case of WP:NPOV violation, and I refuse to remove those claims. Khavakoz (talk) 13:27, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm done with the Coins article. Ya'll can do what yas wish with it. Just leave me out of it. GoodDay (talk) 13:37, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

I was referring to your comment towards me at the AN/I which was closed before I could respond. This has nothing to do with GoodDay. Mabuska ^(talk) 15:59, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

Misuse of warning templates

Talk page revision as of this comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:2021_Dublin_Bay_South_by-election&oldid=1026896597

Spleodrach's reasoning for removing those parts is perfectly good, so I've reverted your changes. I recommend that you retract the warning on their talk page (that isn't an edit war), and give reason for the socking claim or retract that claim. A reminder that throwing warning templates on editors' profiles as a substitute for discussion is a form of disruptive editing, and making spurious claims even more so.
