::Actually the edit you made is good.

I disagreed that "regional" was an appropriate name until I checked the website that said (and still says) they are called "national" and "regional" routes.

Don't skirt the issue at hand. [[Andy Murray {ice hockey)]] found itself in a vandalised state when you became involved because of JNW and '''not''' the accounts responsible for the removal. On that note you could have achieved the same result using rollback [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Andy_Murray_(ice_hockey)&diff=prev&oldid=587531034 here], easier and legit - so why didn't you?

Mick
Your article is so impressive. I can't believe the amount of info you've found, considering he hasn't even appeared yet! I was wondering if you had/seen All About Soap issue 309 (9–22 November 2013)? There's an article about the Carter family, which gives some details about each member (except the dog). - JuneGloom Talk 20:51, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- I should have it as I haven't missed an issue of any of the soap mags for a while. But I'm not at home now until Monday. I shall have to re-check that one. Perhaps I didn't think there was anything worth adding, or maybe I just forgot to use it after I read the mag. Thanks :) –anemoneprojectors– 20:57, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- Oh by the way, I'm hoping to make the article live early next week if I can, to go for DYK in time for his arrival. Any suggestions for a good hook? I put a couple on the talk page of the draft. –anemoneprojectors– 20:59, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- Okay. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll scan you the article. If you decide to do a Carter page, there's a great quote from DTC about the creation of the family. I quite like the hooks you've got, especially the Carl one. I think it would work even if you didn't get your Carl draft finished in time. I'll have another look and see if I can come up with anymore. - JuneGloom Talk 21:05, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- Oh yeah, because I was concentrating on Mick, I didn't start collecting sources for the family. When I do, I definitely plan on going back through the magazines - I don't throw them out. My Carl page needs some expansion but as it stands it would be a pretty fine article, so I think he'll be ok for next week as well. –anemoneprojectors– 21:10, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
- I found the article. I had conveniently written "Carter family" across Tina McIntyre's face on the front cover! And yes I can use something in it for Mick - as well as all the Carters when the time comes. So thanks for that, I must have just forgotten it. –anemoneprojectors– 15:43, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
- No problem! I'm glad you found the magazine and the article was useful. You better get this week's Inside Soap, there's a three page Danny Dyer interview/feature. - JuneGloom Talk 18:16, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
- Is it still out tomorrow as normal. I get confused at this time of year, especially as the last one was a double issue... –anemoneprojectors– 18:29, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
- Oh, it is. I should pay attention to the back pages :) –anemoneprojectors– 18:30, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
- It's out now! And the next one's out on 28 December. - JuneGloom Talk 18:32, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
- Last issue says "on sale Tuesday 10 Dec". But I had assumed no issue would be out this week because last week's was a double. 28 December is a Saturday... so I'll probably end up buying it on 2 January! Depends how New Year pans out for me. I'll try to get them all on the day. All About Soap and Soaplife might come out on funny days too. Next ones are 17 Dec as normal, phew! –anemoneprojectors– 18:38, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

- Got it, added it. Not done the "Wedding drama!" box yet. Wondering if Nancy should be moved (and Wayne added) to 2014. –anemoneprojectors– 16:48, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

- Hmm, Mick's page is definitely ready to go, even with more to be added, so I could try to get that for a DYK. Carl's draft isn't complete yet but could still go to mainspace now, not fully completed. Hmm. Not having a Christmas DYK wouldn't be a major issue though. @JuneGloom07: any thoughts? –anemoneprojectors– 10:09, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- For something that isn't fully completed, Carl's article looks really good. Personally, I think the Christmas DYK would be great, but it's up to you. - JuneGloom Talk 20:28, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- I worked a lot on Carl's page today and I think I can move both to the mainspace tomorrow. Christmas Day would be good as it's Mick's first episode. I'll ask for it, but there are loads in the Christmas Day holding area, all about Christmas, and many with a photo - I wanted Danny Dyer's face on the main page! So I could ask for Christmas Eve instead. –anemoneprojectors– 21:36, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Christmas Eve could work. - JuneGloom Talk 23:29, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

This is for creating the best damn article about a fictional character that has yet to be on-screen. It's also for creating Carl White and dealing with my many requests to move drafts into the mainspace. :) - JuneGloom Talk 14:21, 17 December 2013 (UTC) |
- Bearing that in mind, could you please move this to here? - JuneGloom Talk 14:21, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! I couldn't have done it without Danny Dyer though! It's because he's so well known, controversial and outspoken! And done ;-) –anemoneprojectors– 14:24, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- And thank you! I do wonder what the article would have looked like if they hadn't cast Danny. - JuneGloom Talk 14:36, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- Not very long! Imagine if he took on the Carl role! Erk. –anemoneprojectors– 14:48, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- He would have been wasted as Carl. Anyway, I think we have a sock problem: User:Hannahhld1972, User:Hannahhld1d and User:Hannahhld1 must be the same person. They've all edited the same articles, such as Stella Price. - JuneGloom Talk 19:34, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- Maybe she can't remember her password! Do you want to start an SPI? Hannahhld1 is the oldest account of the three. –anemoneprojectors– 09:22, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
- Will do. - JuneGloom Talk 12:59, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

When information sourced from books was added to Carol Jackson's article - the page numbers were not cited. I have made a start but I only have two books used. So I hoped you could help out? Do you own "Albert Square & Me" and "Eastenders: The First 10 Years"? If you did would you be able to cite the page numbers to the relevant parts?Rain the 1 16:07, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- I don't own any EastEnders books but I think User:Gungadin does. She doesn't edit much these days but you might be lucky. –anemoneprojectors– 16:33, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- Call yourself an EastEnders fan! Tssk. Well in that case I will ask her then. One of the books is cheap enough to buy if not. The other is expensive. I normally remove incorrectly sourced information. The problem is the book supports the entire casting section!Rain the 1 16:45, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
- The first book is available to read on Google Books. Not sure about the second. But please don't remove the info just because we don't have the page number. –anemoneprojectors– 17:03, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

No worries
I just wanted to give more detail on stuff, but if you want to revert it, that fine to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jimmy875 (talk • contribs) 09:18, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

- It qualifies as a new article.--Launchballer 23:13, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

- I've never seen that rule before. Could I not simply reword the content of it, like I did with The Voice UK discography?--Launchballer 00:04, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Doesn't it fall under 1b of WP:WIADYK#Eligibility criteria? - JuneGloom Talk 00:57, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- According to that, that is acceptable once it is reworded. I'll get on that when I get back from school.--Launchballer 07:18, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Maybe if nobody mentions it, nobody will know ;-) I'm sure plenty of DYKs like this go through. I seem to remember questioning one before and it was still allowed. –anemoneprojectors– 08:18, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Okay, now please could you weigh in there. We need an independent reviewer to review the hook, as it was suggested by the reviewer, Matty.007.--Launchballer 18:50, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

National Cycle Network routes
Hi. I think you're a bit confused about NCN national/regional routes.
National routes are those where the route number is signed in white with a red background. All of those on List of National Cycle Network routes are such.
Regional routes are those where the route number is signed in white with a blue background. These have county-wide numbering - i.e. there may be two Regional Route 43s in different counties.
Regional routes are actually being phased out, and the routes are becoming National routes. Sustrans' own page explains it well:
- Sustrans is currently embarking on a project to re-number and re-classify Regional routes as National routes, which comprises the allocation of new two- and three-digit numbers to the routes in the same fashion as detailed above, making each route a branch of an established National route.
So if you could please stop editing the page to call the 2/3-digit National routes "Regional routes", that'd be great. Thank you.
If you have any more questions, please post here. I'm a Sustrans ranger who has recently worked on renumbering a two-digit Regional route to a two-digit National route, and am also involved in setting up a new three-digit National route. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.208.138.137 (talk) 14:35, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks. I didn't see that Sustrans are phasing out regional routes. Do you know when it'll be done by? I think Wikipedia should wait until it is done (or at least mention that it's in progress). I live near Route 12 and it has a red background. (Also, could you have a little read of WP:COI? Thanks!) –anemoneprojectors– 14:46, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- Actually the edit you made is good. In the article, they were called "primary" and "secondary" until someone changed them to "national" and "regional" on 12 December [1]. I disagreed that "regional" was an appropriate name until I checked the website that said (and still says) they are called "national" and "regional" routes. But the fact they are all called "National cycle route [number]" and not "Regional cycle route [number]" implies they're all national anyway. –anemoneprojectors– 15:05, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
