Hiding edits

Hiding edits within HTML comments is not the usual way to do things on Wikipedia. Just remove them outright. The text is perpetually available in the page history anyway, and nobody can see hidden comments unless they view the source. In the case of Carter Kane's religion, I would actually put a comment there to see the talk page before filling in that field, and then start a discussion where you say that a reliable secondary source is needed before the field can be filled in.

The Last Olympian

Hi 2ReinreB2, I noticed your edit and I do not agree with your POV, because: if you take a look at the article as it is now, you will notice, under section meaning that, by replacing the numbers with a #, the text was aligned, now it is not because the text is running right under the 4. That just doesn't look nice. Also, if you take a closer look at the References section, it looks like a column is missing. Undo your edit and you will see exactly what I mean. Thank you for your time. 2ReinreB2 (talk) 20:34, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

• @Lotje -- thanks very much for bringing this to my attention. I undid that edit because of a fairly minor format change that I noticed; I guess I didn't realize that doing so changed some things for the worse as well. I appreciate your reversion of my mistake. I'll go fix anything left over right now. -- 2ReinreB2 (talk) 20:34, 13 December 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2016: Game On!

We are about to enter the second week of the 2016 WikiCup. The most recent player to sign up brings the current total to 101 contestants. Signups close on 5 February. If you’re interested, you can join this year's WikiCup here.

We are aware that in some areas the scoring bot’s numbers are a little bit off (i.e., overly generous) and are working to have that corrected as soon as possible.--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:07, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter

One of Adam Cuerden’s several quality restorations during round 1

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. Forty-seven competitors move into this round (a bit shy of the expected 64), and we are roughly broken into eight groups of six. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups.

Twenty-two Good Articles were submitted, including three by Cyclonebiskit (submissions), and two each by MPJ-DK (submissions), Hurricanehink (submissions), 12george1 (submissions), and Cas Liber (submissions). Twenty-one Featured Pictures were claimed, including 17 by Adam Cuerden (submissions) (the Round 1 high scorer). Thirty-one contestants saw their DYKs appear on the main page, with a commanding lead (28) by Cwmhiraeth (submissions). Twenty-nine participants conducted GA reviews with J Milburn (submissions) completing nine.

If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Along with getting the year wrong in the newsletter that went out earlier this week, we did not mention (as the bot did not report) that Cas Liber (submissions) claimed the first Featured Article Persoonia terminalis of the 2016 Wikicup.

Carter Kane-related

I just got your message. We need an articles for deletion page if we are to discuss the fate of the Carter Kane page. Just letting you know that? --Rtkat3 (talk) 15:47, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

• @Rtkat3 -- Yes, we will if anyone thinks it's worth protesting. The discussion on our talk page is to see if anyone cares. If they do, then we ought to start an AFD discussion page. Otherwise, RRTF will just let this pass. -- 2ReinreB2 (talk) 15:51, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

Welcome template for WP:RRTF

We were able to add a few more active members to the Rick Riordan Task Force. I was thinking of creating a welcome template for new WP:RRTF users, mind if you help me? Thanks. :) →The Pancake of Heaven! (T  • C  • E) 14:23, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

List of characters in mythology novels by Rick Riordan

I just took a look at List of characters in mythology novels by Rick Riordan's history and I found a lot of fan-facts that are not suitable for Wikipedia. I also noticed that they are all IP users. Do you think we should request a semi-protection on the article? The edits keep repeating and this may lead to either a WP:WAR or they may start to vandalize the page. Thank you. →The Pancake of Heaven! (T  • C  • E) 02:37, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

@The Pancake of Heaven! -- I don't think requesting protection would do any harm. I'm not sure it's really necessary though; most fandalism is caught pretty quickly on the page, and I think an edit war is highly unlikely. Actually, I currently have all the pages under RRTF's scope on my personal watchlist, and from what I've seen List of characters in mythology novels by Rick Riordan undergoes a fairly typical amount of nonconstructive IP editing. But again, semi-protecting the page probably wouldn't hurt, since it has been so thoroughly copyedited (IP's are not going to catch/fix spelling errors).

On an unrelated note, thanks for the edits you just made to the project page. Really like your enthusiasm! Happy editing, 2ReinreB2 (talk) 21:10, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Okay. →The Pancake of Heaven! (T  • C) 05:15, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
