A Gnome Explains

I became a WikiGnome after I found I had misspelt retrieved, as retreived (ei), three times in one article (one mistake, copied & pasted).
I set myself a "penance" of correcting the "ei" versions in Wikipedia articles, but only intended to do the 100 or so misspellings there were at the time
I then adopted "retrieved" (retreived, retrived, retreved) and then added "rhythm” (rhythem, rhythim, rhythym, rhytm, rythem, rythim, rythm & rythym)

I then got carried away, and adopted the Wikipedia:Lists of common misspellings/R - all of it. Don’t do it, it's bad for your health

Broadcasted

The Wiktionary definition of Broadcasted states that the use is proscribed, so it should not be used.
The word also appears on Wikipedia:Lists_of_common_misspellings/B

Broadcasted appears in some dictionaries, but not at all in others, e.g.Chambers which states "Sorry, no entries for Broadcasted were found".
Broadcast appears in all dictionaries and should be used throughout, as COMMONALITY - "Wikipedia tries to find words that are common to all varieties of English".

A July 2014 Beta search for Broadcast gave over 182,000 uses, compared with a search for broadcasted which gave just 28.
Of these 28, 13 are redirects to "Broadcast" articles, 5 relate to a 1924 cartoon, and the rest are misspellings in quotations or titles.

Frankly, not good enough

I have already forgotten how I found myself here, but I have now just decided that your contributions are of insufficient quality. There is no relevant barnstar, so this text will have to suffice, and let me be clear: quantity of edits is also deficient.

If this state of affairs does not improve, I will be forced to cancel your subscription to Wikipedia and I am bored at the moment. I wonder where I am off to next: an article? a discussion page? The good Lord knoweth and keepeth all in magic its swum have fox windowed. AntiqueReader (talk) 10:44, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi AntiqueReader

I'm sorry to hear you are bored

Perhaps a little DIY brain surgery might make life a little more interesting?

I note the edit you made before posting here was to Osama bin Laden - I'm not quite sure of the association of ideas that got you from him to me

Maybe I should suggest some more invasive DIY brain surgery? - Arjayay (talk) 11:20, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Permit me to reveal a crucial fact: I am long past the point where even the most skilled of brain surgeons could render me assistance.

Saudi Arabia: It is on my watchlist; I think that is how I got here.

I bid you farewell, but will keep an eye on you to ensure aforementioned deficiencies are remedied. AntiqueReader (talk) 14:18, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Editor's Barnstar
	Thank you so much for your corrections (on this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silviu_Mih%C4%83il%C4%83 ) I really appreciate...! Best wishes! Loyd Sebastian (talk) 19:28, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Please have a glance

this page is a duplicate of an existing page List of airports in Andhra Pradesh. Any advice?--Vin09 (talk) 15:19, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

I saw your request for deletion, and edited the redirect in Andhra Pradesh to (your) older article. I realize you started List of airports in Andhra Pradesh so requesting deletion of a "rival" article could be seen to be in bad faith. The new article does have some additional information, (I assume it is correct?) so a merge would be better, but this should not be under the "AirPorts" title, as Wikipedia does not use CamelCase, however, if a lot of information is included, it should not be under the "list" title either, as it is more than a list. If you feel it difficult to suggest a merge, because you started one of the articles, I will happily do that for you. - Arjayay (talk) 15:35, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

No, actually I read somewhere that a duplicate article is not required for wiki, so I requested that. I'm moving it to Aiports of Andhra Pradesh and adding the required info which you mentioned.--Vin09 (talk) 15:56, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

You should agree the merge with the other editor (seeWP:Merging) and then ensure you attribute the additional information to the original editor, before making the "AirPorts" article into a redirect. - Arjayay (talk) 17:08, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

FYI, AirPorts has already been deleted. And the article should stay as a list. Including additional info will be redundant as the main article of each of these airports already have them and besides, adding info on each and every airport of the state makes it too elaborate. — LeoFrank  ^Talk 17:13, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

@LeoFrank:Agree, these airports have already been in Andhra Pradesh, their respective pages.--Vin09 (talk) 17:19, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Skogssamer

Hi, I was wondering if you could take a look at the article Skogssamer that I have created. I have nominated it for DYK. But before it will be finally approved some copyediting for Standard English is needed. So if you are interested please take a look. Otherwise thanks anyway :).--BabbaQ (talk) 17:56, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your request BabbaQ
I think you could be out of luck with DYK, as the article does not seem to meet the eligibility criteria:-
It is not new (<7 days old) nor expanded 5x (in the last 7 days), nor promoted to good article (in the last 7 days) Please see WP:WIADYK for the full criteria.

I always feel bad criticizing other peoples articles, but as you have asked for it, there are three points I would raise - all in the lead:-
The first sentence assumes the reader knows who the Sami are, and where they live - although they can click the link to find out, they have then left the article. I suggest that after woods, you add "of northern Scandinavia" or some thing similar, to help the reader.
The second sentence ends "northern parts of Ångermanland and north." North what?
The final two sentences appear self contradictory - if Manker's study was in the early 1900s, and "practically all habitations (plural) had been abandoned" how was there only one village? - and if it was "located in Malå during the 1800s" where was it located at other times - e.g when Manker carried out his study in the early 1900s? - This also contradicts the 1882 committee investigartion futher down

I am also concerned about the quotation, where it appears you have only translated part of it into English

Hope that helps - I'm off now but should be back about 07.30 UTC tomorrow - Arjayay (talk) 18:55, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

No I do not take it as criticism but as advice :) I will take all your advice and try to improve it. Thanks.--BabbaQ (talk) 21:31, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Deletion

South Coastal Railway Zone, I tagged it for deletion, what is wrong with it, still existing?--Vin09 (talk) 17:50, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

As it says "This message has remained in place for seven days and so the article may be deleted without further notice." but, as I have explained before, I am not an Admin, so I can't delete it.
However,I'm not sure your reasons for proposed deletion are correct:-
As it already exists WP:CRYSTAL is not relevant - as for WP:TOOSOON that is usually used for people:- musicians, artists, sportsmen, politicians; or for companies, who have only just started and may, or may not, become notable. A bureaucratic body like a railway board does not normally become notable over time; it either is notable, or is not. - Arjayay (talk) 18:11, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

For the record, it was deleted at 06:57, 17 July 2014 - Arjayay (talk) 08:05, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Arjaya! You wrote: Please make your request on the relevant talk page, but you must take a more neutral point of view and obtain some reliable, independent, sources. The interview you are quoting is over 3 months old - if was waiting for citizenship then, he may have it by now, so this is not acceptable. - Arjayay (talk) 15:08, 18 July 2014 (UTC) 1) How about the difference between citizenship and nationality? Citizenship may change, but nationality is one for a lifetime. For example, I have the citizenship of another country, but I have always been Ukrainian and I will be Ukrainian. 2) You quoted on citizenship and did not pay attention to Oleynik's interview, where he clearly says that he is Ukrainian. Please, comment why you did not pay attention to the Oleynik's words about himself that he is Ukrainian? 3) Please, pay attention that there are a lot evidences that Oleinik is Ukrainian, but there is no evidence that he is Russian (except the overwhelming desire of Russians readers to make him (Oleinik) Russian). I specified clear evidences of his Ukrainian nationality, including his own words about himself that he is Ukrainian. Please, specify the evidence that Oleinik is Russian (or at least partly Russian). It is necessary so that to have an objective information, free of subjective approach. Thank you.

I have created "request on the relevant talk page", why nobody answers? Why the change is not done? I can't understand what does mean "to reach consensus" when Oleinik clearly identified himselv as Ukrainian, I gave clear quote of his speech. It's not a question of reaching consensus or debate. It's a fact. I can repeat the quote: Translation from Russian, quote: Alexey Oleinik says about himself: "I am Ukrainian, I was born in this country, lived there for 30 years. I have my parents, my brothers, my sisters, my friends, my teammates, my disciples there. My grandfathers were born and lived there".

Arjayay: Why have you deleted an added section to the CC&BTC and why do you accuse me/us of disruptive editing for adding a clarifying paragraph? R W Royce (talk) 10:39, 23 July 2014 (UTC) R W Royce

R W Royce - We do not endorse any article in such a way, and my deletion was the third time that your addition was removed - so this is not just my opinion.
As has already been explained to you, you need to start a discussion on the article's talk page, identifying specific points which you think are wrong, explaining why, and citing reliable, third party, sources to support your opinion; and if necessary, citations to show that the existing references are incorrect.
Please note that the article already suffers from an excess of primary sources, and anything that is not cited in an independant reliable source is unlikely to be acceptable. - Arjayay (talk) 10:57, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

As I posted yesterday at User talk:83.193.22.97:-

Yes, I removed a totally unsourced claim:-

July 2014 statistics indicate that Wales attracted circa 5% of UK inward investment- up on previous years. Welsh "ministers" bragged this was a great peformance but it is in fact well down on the 15% the WDA regulary attracted. The WDA was taken inot private hands in an attempt to up the performance of Wales in attracting investment but Edwina Hart wrested the company out of private ownership.

Any such claim needs reliable sources, which this does not have. Any long-standing editor would such an unsourced claim, whether or not they know anything about the subject, in fact their lack of knowledge means that they have no conflict of interest making it easier to maintain a neutral point of view.
FYI, the page was only drawn to my attention, because of the spelling mistakes

I have also just removed your equally unsourced accusation.

This page is being used by individuals or bodies with no real in-dependency to the subject, to manipulate the "story" for their own ends. It may be the WG itself!

If you wish to edit the page to add verifiable information from reliable independent sources please do so. Please do not add unsourced information, speculation or accusations. - Arjayay (talk) 11:17, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to respond regarding the IP user who has been something of an issue on the Fighting Fantasy titles. This person has once again made a blind revert at Creature of Havoc, despite my spending an hour melding together all the contribured information. I've reverted back once, and explained the rationale at the Talk page. I'll let you if this person reverts again. Kind regards Asgardian (talk) 15:48, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Greetings. I'm contacting you as you were kind enough to respond the first time re: the anonymous IP user. A look here ([1]) shows that this person has in addition to making yet another a blind revert. They have then decided to be uncivil and try and spite with a constant refusal to sign their posts, and brag about it. Despite an offer to discuss the issue and some suggestions by myself, this user has adopted a my way or the way approach. What concerns me here is the complete disregard for the Wikipedia process. I offered to discuss at Talk and appear to be the subject of ridicule. Can you assist? Regards Asgardian (talk) 12:02, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

Asgardian Please realize I am not an Admin and I know nothing of the "Fantasy genre", other than some people can get very worked up about it.
I note this is a book, rather than a video game, or movie, which most Fantasy articles seem to be about. As we do not seem to have any WP:MOS guidelines for gamebooks, or even games in general, I assume it comes under Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Novels, which states:-

" Plot summaries should be concise and an integral part of the article. Three or four paragraphs are usually sufficient for a full-length work, although very complex and lengthy novels may need a bit more. Shorter novels and short stories should have shorter summaries."'

I don't know the length of the book, or how "complex" it is (I am sure those wanting a longer plot will argue that it is complex), but suspect three or four paragraphs should suffice, although currently the paragraphs are fairly short.
Although difficult to tell when other editors are IPs, you appear to be having a fairly limited discussion, which, to ensure true consensus should be broadened. I note that at the top of Talk:Creature of Havoc it states "You may prefer to discuss this article on the talk page for the List of Fighting Fantasy gamebooks article" which will presumably get more editors involved.
Finally, although I agree that people not signing their posts etc. is annoying, you should not attack the editor, just concentrate on their argument. 13:36, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

Of course, although a check of the history shows our friend is the one being uncivil. Good tips, but if not an admin, why did you respond on their board? Don't get yourself into trouble!
