Username Change

Greets! You changed my username over two weeks ago and my edits were still not moved. Is that allright?--Der Golem (talk) 12:01, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Sometimes it can take a while. If it takes longer than 4 weeks to fully move over, you should consider seeking developer intervention - perhaps by posting to bugzilla:17313. –xeno^talk 22:44, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Allright, thank you! cheers--Der Golem (talk) 09:51, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Tibet

Hi. Admittedly Category:Populated places in Tibet is a huge mess. The vast majority of the articles contain false info from falling rain and at least half of them cannot be seen on google maps. I would like you to generate a list of all unreferenced Tibetan village articles and delete them. A few have been expanded a little and are valid towns but it would be better to whittle down what we have to those which actually have info and are verifiable on google maps. For instance Arza is a legit township and we want to keep the townships. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:06, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

I can generate a list and then you can file a bulk AfD discussion. –xeno^talk 13:37, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Mm, I could generate List of township-level divisions of the Tibet Autonomous Region in Chinese and get it translated like I've been doing with the some of the others and identify those which are definitely notable and verifiable and then delete the others.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:34, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Probably a good start. –xeno^talk 13:37, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

I'll wait and see if the editor I've asked can translate the Xinjiang list. If that's done I'll create a Tibet list. Hopefully when all wikilinked it should identify all of the townships. Some of the villages though are notable and can be seen on google maps. The problem is that because there are so many bad eggs its tough to actually find those settlements which actually have information and actually exist... Its probably best to work through improving the counties and then create the townships of Tibet first anyway....

Viewing google maps generally gets a good idea. Clearly this is a notable settlement, The problem is the many villages which appear to be nothing but plateau... ♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:01, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

WT:ACN

Hey Xeno, I posted a couple of questions at WT:ACN and, since you're the coordinating arb, I thought you would probably be the most qualified to answer the first (not that it's urgent and you've probably seen it on your watchlist anyway!).
