Toini Gustafsson/Rönnlund

Hello.

Although her name in press often appears as Toini Gustafsson-Rönnlund, according to both Swedish Census 1970 (Sveriges befolkning 1970, a cd) and the webplace www.ratsit.se (which builds on the current census records), her name is in fact Toini Rönnlund. She married Assar Rönnlund in 1968, so this seems to have been the case since then. Do you have any references for your move?

If not, I will move this article to Toini Rönnlund in a near future.

Cheers.

You are right, but, she never appears as Toini Rönnlund in the press or record books etc. It's either her maiden name Toini Gustafsson (which she used for the most part of her carrer) or Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund. Therefore the article should be named Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund (without hyphen). --Marbe166 (talk) 07:53, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have any statistics to support your claim? HandsomeFella (talk) 11:21, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A quick google search only finds pages with Toini Gustafsson (Gustavsson in some) or Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund. The Swedish national encyclopedia ne.se has her listed as Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund. ne.se --Marbe166 (talk) 13:33, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did an "extended" google search with search string in double quotes. These are the results:

Toini Gustafsson: 18,400
Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund: 3,760
Toini Rönnlund: 368

Given the result, I suggest we move the article to Toini Gustafsson, and word the lede like this:

Toini Gustafsson (married name Toini Rönnlund, often also Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund, born 17 January 1938 in Suomussalmi, Finland) is a retired Swedish cross-country skier...

What do you think? Maybe we could skip the often also part?

HandsomeFella (talk) 14:09, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree with your move suggestion. I feel that since her surname de facto is Rönnlund but she is mostly known as Gustafsson it is most right to have her credited as Gustafsson Rönnlund, of course with a redirect from both Toini Gustafsson and Toini Rönnlund. Also, both ne.se and Swedish Wikipedia has her as Gustafsson Rönnlund. I suggest the following lede:

Toini Gustafsson Rönnlund (born Toini Gustafsson, 17 January 1938 in Suomussalmi, Finland) is a retired Swedish cross-country skier...

--Marbe166 (talk) 22:57, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

ne.se is just one source, and wikipedia is not source to itself, so se.wiki does not count.

Since we cant agree, I'll put the page up on WP:RM, so the greater community can have a say.

Confused re: Victoria of Sweden

I see nothing on the talk page there that could make me anything but confused about this edit of yours. Until I do, I must assume you made that edit in error, against your own opinion on the talk page and against what the WP:3O editor would prefer as per h input there. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 02:51, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Paul Kuhn (band leader), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ARD (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

DYK for Kristian Gidlund

On 26 September 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Kristian Gidlund, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Kristian Gidlund played drums in the rock band Sugarplum Fairy until his death in 2013? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Kristian Gidlund. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

ANI notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006. (talk) 00:06, 4 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Personal Information

Please do not post any personal information into articles. If you continue to do so you will be blocked. Mike V • Talk 02:09, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please exemplify what you mean. Marbe166 (talk) 06:57, 5 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd clicked on the ANI alert above, you'd know. This is the specific ANI discussion. If you reinsert the address in either of the articles again, I'll block you myself. Bishonen | talk 14:43, 5 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Administrator intervention against vandalism

Thanks for your report at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism about the vandalism on articles related to Swedish Royalty from the IP address 86.166.73.120, which I have blocked fro a month. You also say that the IP editor is likely to be the same person as uses the account Leona, Duchess of Ôland. I think you are very likely to be right, but with only two edits (one of them deleted) there isn't enough evidence to take any action, but I have placed a block which will prevent logged-in users from editing from that IP address for 24 hours, so if it is the same person they may be temporarily prevented from vandalising. If you see more vandalism from that account, please feel welcome to contact me on my talk page, and I will consider whether to block the account.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at List of oldest living people, you may be blocked from editing. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 10:12, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That edit was not disruptive! Pointing out that Morano is the last living woman born in the 1800s is perfectly legitimate. You need to check your definitions of vandalism. --Marbe166 (talk) 10:16, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First Lady of the United States

In the article First Lady of the United States has been written:

The First Lady of the United States is an unofficial title and position traditionally held by the wife of the President of the United States, concurrent with the president's term of office.

However, in the article List of First Ladies of the United States says:

This list included all persons who served as First Ladies, regardless of whether they were married to the incumbent President or not...

Well, how it is really with:

3: Martha Wayles Skelton (or should be as Martha Jefferson?) Died nearly nineteen years prior to his presidency → Thomas Jefferson

7: Rachel Donelson (or should be as Rachel Jackson?) Died after election, prior to husband's inauguration → Andrew Jackson

8: Hannah Hoes (or should be as Hannah van Buren?) Died eighteen years prior to his presidency → Martin Van Buren

21: Ellen Lewis Herndon (or should be as Ellen Arthur?) Died nineteen months prior to his presidency → Chester A. Arthur

Finally, how about Jane Wyman, if "regardless of whether they were married to the incumbent President or not"? She was the first wife of Ronald Reagan 1940-1949.

Emma Morano

My information is much more helpful though. It's one thing to be in the top 10 but it's more impressive to be 8th. I think we should have a more specific number there. I provided a source and have good information. Please stop deleting it.

Request for feedback

You have recently contributed to the discussion at talk:Living Presidents of the United States about changes I have made. I initiated that discussion and have tried to drive it to consensus, in the process making more recent talk page edits than the other editors combined. For your participation in that discussion, I thank you. I am, however, wondering about my participation in that discussion.

Have I been pushing my own ideas too much?
Have I ignored those with opinions different from mine?
Can you think of any way my talk page involvement could have been improved?

You may answer me here, on my talk page, or by e-mail. Thank you for your desire to improve this online encyclopedia! YBG (talk) 05:04, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reverts

I see in your recent contribution many unexplained reverts but zero participation in talk page discussions. Please get engaged in the discussions, otherwise you are risking to be blocked for edit-warring.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:00, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Normal English

"Friend of" is normal English. "Friend with" is slangy English, dialect, or English influenced by speakers of Germanic languages. I have taught English for over 50 years, with English as my first language. You and I will get along just fine as long as you don't try to give me English lessons. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:11, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@SergeWoodzing That was uncalled for in such a minor dispute. If you have taught English for over 50 years you should know that there are different, perfectly acceptable, ways of expressing the same thing. --Marbe166 (talk) 15:32, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And that there are wrong ways. Wrong English does not belong on English WP. I'm glad to help you at any time. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:34, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Why are you removing the formatting for the sources? --BabbaQ (talk) 20:13, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine with the sources, it's the bad formatting in the initial sentence that needs to be removed. Reformat the links based on my latest revision instead. Cheers. --Marbe166 (talk) 20:16, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is no reason to revert the entire edit for such small matter. Just simply make that small change instead. I have done it for you now.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:18, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there was no reason for you to reinsert the bad formatting after I changed it the first time. --Marbe166 (talk) 20:19, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Iran Air Beijing and Kuala Lumpur routes

Hi mate

I'm the same person you were kind enough to apply the Air India Express delay edit on their behalf, despite being heavily oppressed by the admins.

Same issue again here bro, a blatant mistake on Iran Air destinations and no one is listening, the wiki elite is in full force muting me again:

As of the time of writing this edit request, Iran Air has not resumed services to Beijing and Kuala Lumpur, therefore the two pertinent rows need to be deleted from the table.

Source: http://www.aviationiran.com/2017/03/10/iranairs-first-a330-arrives-in-tehran-on-11-march-0900/

The second paragraph clearly explains that the freshly acquired aircraft were supposed to be used to resume those routes but for the time being they'll be flying European destinations.

Yes, Iran Air planned and submitted GDS entries for those 2 routes thrice but they never actually started. (First:http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/269829/iran-air-proposes-dec-2016-east-asia-service-resumptions/ Second: http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/269983/iran-air-moves-east-asia-service-resumption-to-jan-2017/ And third: http://www.routesonline.com/news/38/airlineroute/270615/iran-air-moves-east-asia-service-resumption-to-mar-2017/

Could you possibly help your fallen comrade out a second time?

edits on athletes

Hello Marbe166. Thanks for the talk. I looked at some of my edits and noticed they are not the current version, and checked that someone else cleaned up my additions, changing 100m to 100 m; changing "gold" medal to 1st place, and removing unnecessary information about prelims/heats rounds when the athlete has reached finals. OK, I will bear that in mind. Also I will avoid writing times in form of 1'50"40 and will use 1:50.40 as you said. The reason for the stockholm event prelims was because the results posted on the website for the finals were in facts prelims and I was too lazy to delete the sentence, so I just mentioned it's a prelim! But that won't happen again. Any encyclopedia (such as wikipedia) should try to be concise and only contain important information.

Anyway I'd be happy to know what contributions you yourself make to wikipedia.

Cheers!
