12:17:32, 25 October 2016 review of submission by Twistedmouth


Hi Fuortu, first thanks for reviewing the draft on The Glover whisky in the first place. I have added more content, and many more references from national and trade press. Would be great if someone could look at it, though not sure how that works (was 3+ weeks ago); whether it's you who reviews again, or if other editors can pick it up for approval? I saw a colleague removed a Forbes citation, which I've replaced with two more suitable references. Cheers, twistedmouth — Preceding unsigned comment added by Twistedmouth (talkcontribs)

It will be reviewed by another reviewer, but it will take some time. In the meantime, you can improve the draft. Happy editing! Fuortu (talk) 20:17, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

phosphorus

Thank you so much for working on really important elements, especially since they really do feel scary to you! (First Na and then P? I take my hat off! What shall we have after this – Au?) Would you mind if I helped add some stuff re chemistry? (I was planning to take silicon first in the second row, but this is fine too.)

I would really recommend Greenwood and Earnshaw, once again – you know you've picked an important element when they devote a 74-page chapter to it! ^_^ Oh, and can I add your name to the members list at WP:ELEM? (Or you could do it yourself if you prefer.) Double sharp (talk) 15:16, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Phosphorus has always fascinated me since my childhood. Maybe it's because it glows in the dark. That's why I chose phosphorus. It will take considerable amount of time to get this article to good article status. If you improve the article by adding stuff, I would greatly appreciate it. I'll add my name to the list of active participants myself, thanks. Sodium article has more sources than phosphorus even though sodium is much smaller compared to phosphorus. Phosphorus has lots of paragraphs which are completely unsourced, so it needs lots of sources to become a good article. Yeah, I know, referencing is not the only thing that needs to be improved. :) Fuortu (talk) 16:27, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Do you mind if I work in your sandbox? Double sharp (talk) 14:58, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Not at all. Please go ahead, here's the link. Fuortu (talk) 15:09, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Double sharp: Just letting you know that I am no longer working in my sandbox because I think it's better to work in main article. Cheers. Fuortu (talk) 01:53, 15 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm currently looking at nitrogen (link is to my sandbox) as a study for phosphorus (one row further down in the periodic table and so different due to the existence of radial nodes in the 3p orbitals). It's not anywhere near complete yet in the sandbox but I have planned it out offline so it should be finished soon. Though I would appreciate some comments on the existing sections; already I think I might be scaring everyone away with the chemistry section... Double sharp (talk) 15:47, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, from now on, I'll be focusing on making phosphorus a good article. I am thinking about getting sodium to featured article status after phosphorus becomes a good article. Fuortu (talk) 21:00, 14 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected a Speedy deletion notice

Hi Fourtu

Just letting you know that the template message "Speedy deletion nomination of User:Job Anbalagan/sandbox" was incorrectly delivered to my talk page, I have moved it to User talk:Job Anbalagan. -- Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 16:46, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Talk redlinks post-round robin

Hi Fuortu, just an FYI, I created Talk:Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien to redirect to Talk:Runner2 after your round-robin move. Per WP:PMVR#rr step 4, please remember to re-create talk page redlinks post-move, as there are sometimes a lot of incoming links to newly-redlinked talk pages (and subpages). The reason this happens is that Page A may have a talk page, but redirect B does not. After the swap, "Talk:A" no longer exists.

In this example, see Special:WhatLinksHere/Talk:Runner2:_Future_Legend_of_Rhythm_Alien. The way I do it is, I check my own contributions for redlinked talk pages and subpages and re-create them. Hope that make sense, cheers :) — Andy W. (talk) 17:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. I'll remember that. By the way, thanks for creating closeRM and pageswap, they are very useful user scripts. :) Fuortu (talk) 18:56, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No one said it's a poll. It's a consensus discussion. WP:NCA is a guideline, not a policy. Consensus can override a guideline, and you have closed against an obvious consensus. Please provide a better rationale on the article talk page for all to see (not here or my talk page) or self-revert the closure. This message fulfills my requirement to discuss with you before I go to WP:MR. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 23:29, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded my closing rationale. I hope that helps. Fuortu (talk) 00:43, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Review needs your help

Hi Fuortu,

As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).

Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.

Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.

It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

Steve "Clem" Grogan

Would you mind undoing your RM close at Talk:Steve "Clem" Grogan? I think that's a pretty strange result, as it is contrary to the previous RM about that page and didn't really have sufficient participation. In my opinion, it is contrary to WP:NICKNAME and contrary to what is ordinarily done on Wikipedia, and the quote marks are really not part of that person's name. There are various similar precedents, and I don't recall ever seeing one end up this way. I guess I wasn't paying attention over the last week. I can't blame you much for closing it the way you did, since there was no opposition expressed, but I find the provided rationale rather strange and I think this would not have happened if more discussion were allowed to occur (or if it was closed by a typical experienced admin, which is why non-admins are requested to exercise caution about closing RMs). —BarrelProof (talk) 03:13, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi BarrelProof. According to WP:NICKNAME, using quotation marks in title should be 'avoided', that means it is not entirely forbidden. RM at Talk:Ed "Too Tall" Jones, in which you participated, was closed in favor of having quotation marks and nickname in the title by an admin. If the name with quotation marks and nickname is common name, it is OK to use that as the title of the article. For example, see the RM discussion at Talk:Evelyn "Champagne" King. It is clear that "Steve "Clem" Grogan" is the common name because almost all Google search results use that name. On the other hand, I don't see a single source which uses the previous title "Clem Grogan", so I don't think reverting is a good idea. Fuortu (talk) 11:43, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for responding. You seem to be more familiar with this issue than I had guessed, so I won't persist with asking you to reopen it. Yes, Talk:Ed "Too Tall" Jones is an interesting one – but he's not a criminal. My informal impression is that lots of criminals have nicknames that newspapers use in a similar fashion, but we tend not to use that sort of quoted nickname format on pages about criminals. —BarrelProof (talk) 16:19, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Evening Dispensary For Working Women and Girls

Hi I recently moved a page that was called originally RingoMad67/stub to a page that i created called Evening Dispensary For Working Women and Girls and you then moved it back to RingoMad97/stup then back again to the new page. Did I mess up when I did it? --Domdeparis (talk) 15:41, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I did that to delete the redirect. You didn't do anything wrong. Cheers Fuortu (talk) 15:49, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Page Review

Hello,

I have recently submitted draft of GEM Enviro Management Organisation which is available on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Atindra15/sandbox/GEM_Enviro_Management this link. please go through the entire article and suggest me improvements if required.. Thank You. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Atindra15 (talkcontribs) 09:32, 16 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Your draft doesn't have reliable sources; first one looks like a company profile and others are press releases. You need to find reliable and independent sources such as news articles and reputable magazines. If you can't find any reliable sources, you can't prove that the subject is notable. As that draft is already reviewed by another editor, you probably know that your draft has neutrality issues. Remember, Wikipedia article should be a summary of what reliable sources say about the subject, so please don't add original research to the article.

Move from South West Africa to South-West Africa

I have opened a discussion about this move at Talk:South West Africa on 14 December and pinged you for attention as the move closer. I intend to open a move review to have this move reverted. -- André Kritzinger (talk) 11:34, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't get any ping from you. {{ping}} will not work if you don't sign in the same edit. Fuortu (talk) 14:05, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Must be because I used @Fuortu, not {{ping}}, I suppose. Is it OK by you if I continue with a move review, or do you wish to comment first? -- André Kritzinger (talk) 15:04, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think you made good points in that discussion. I don't have any opinion on that issue. There was clear consensus for the move but I think more discussion might be required. Since there is nothing wrong with the close, you should start a new RM discussion instead of move review. Fuortu (talk) 16:53, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
According to WP:NOTRM, it seems new RM discussions could be considered contesting a move request close and the Wikipedia:Move review process should rather be followed. Personally, since this hyphen thing has come up at least twice in the past, at Heading and at Requested move, and will probably surface again and end up as a move-war, I'd prefer to go the review route and get the issue settled once and for all. - André Kritzinger (talk) 17:43, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Move review for South-West Africa

An editor has asked for a Move review of South-West Africa. Because you closed the move discussion for this page, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the move review. André Kritzinger (talk) 14:49, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
