The X Factor (UK series 13)

To begin, I apologise for not responding more promptly. I am not a frequent Wikipedia editor but I change what I feel is aesthetically best and most appropriate to the despondency of the article. Use of the orange colour is abrupt, ominous and quite frankly sticks out like a sore thumb. Using #DACEF2 fits more with the article. The lilac shade IS different to that of the colour used for the Withdrawal of Brooks Way - yet still fits with the colour scheme and hence makes the article more cohesive, articulate, consistent and aesthetically pleasing. I urge you to keep it this way. With regards to 'Saved' - it just makes sense. The description of the colour is given above the Results Summary, by the colour key. There is no need to describe the scenario. It is already in the key. - Irin161 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Irin161 (talk • contribs) 17:57, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

DYK for Henry Trigg (testator)

On 31 October 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Henry Trigg (testator), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the ghost of Henry Trigg is said to roam his house searching for his remains, which were stolen from his coffin? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Henry Trigg (testator). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Henry Trigg (testator)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Steven and Cindy - Have Beale family linked in infobox?

Hi,

I was wondering if this should, and could, happen. I know reasons have been said against it, but there are the characters of Babe Smith and Elaine Peacock who aren't related by blood to the Carter's and they have Carter family noted.

Steven and Cindy have been included in storylines involving the Beale's-Lucy's murder, Jane's shooting, Ian's short cusrody battle for Cindy etc. Character pages tend to only go into details of their own storylines and pages like family pages lets you read info together without flicking back and forth between them. It was said they weren't related to the Beale's, but Peter and Lucy are Beale's and both Steven and Cindy were/are noted under the Beale family on the website. Plus, the 2 characters are more involved in Beale family storylines than the likes of David, Bianca and Lou's other children.

This probably doesn't make clear sense, but I hope you get a basic understanding,

Thanks, Grangehilllover (talk) 16:52, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Yes you make a very good point. We should either remove Carter family from Babe and Elaine's infoboxes (I'd support that, I didn't realise it was there) or add Beale family to Steven and Cindy. Although we include Babe in the Carter family article, she's not part of the family tree so it shouldn't be included in the infobox. However, Steven is Ian's stepson and Cindy is a sort of stepdaughter, so there might be a case. It should be discussed more widely. anemoneprojectors 18:06, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

Hi AnemoneProjectors.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

User:Lawsj123

Hi AnemoneProjectors. I noticed you've been trying to get through to the above user, but they're not listening. This user has been quite disruptive for some time now, and I was thinking about taking him to ANI a couple weeks ago, after leaving a final warning notice. Perhaps the only way he'll listen to you is if you block him for a short period of time. What do you think? Because if they're clearly ignoring your comments and proceeding ahead with their edits, then that warrants a block for disruptive editing, doesn't it? Class455 (talk) 15:42, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

@Class455: Well, the thing is he did stop using his blog as a source after I said I was taking it to the spam noticeboard, so I think he may have read that message (though that could just be a coincidence and he's had no need to add it - I asked him not to a year ago and he still did it this year before I took it to the noticeboard). And the fact that he doesn't get how ref names work isn't really disruptive, and at least he is referencing his edits, so I'm reluctant to block the guy, to be honest. I just want him to respond! But actually I did just notice that he has had two accounts at the same time - Lawsj123 and Lawsj1234. And I was trying to teach him how to use ref names in 2013 as well! Maybe I will start warning him about disruptive editing until he gets the message. anemoneprojectors 16:04, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Seems to be a good idea. However he was given a final warning notice in Sept. I wouldn't quite classify the multiple account as a sock as he hasn't used that since 2014. I think you should give him one warning, and if he doesn't listen, either I'll take him to ANI or he'll be blocked. Also, I've also picked up in the past that he edits logged out, and he did this to List of bus routes in London. Class455 (talk) 16:28, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

I've told him that I'll start warning him next time. I'm not taking it as sockpuppetry, though I haven't checked if there was any overlap in edits. Maybe the other account should be blocked to make sure he only uses one. I saw the final warning but as it's from September I'd rather not just block him, but maybe I'll start from a level 2. anemoneprojectors 16:42, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

How long?

Hey you, been a while right? Adult life really does suck! Think I'm going to get back in the habit of this now! Have I missed much? :-) George Sorby 01:12, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
