== Catherine Parr ==

There is a person vandalizing [[Catherine Parr]]'s page and insisting her death date is the 7th. Her own tomb says her death date is the 5th of September. I could use some help on the page/talk page. Or if you could help me find someone to intervene I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. -- [[User:Lady Meg|Lady Meg]] ([[User talk:Lady Meg|talk]]) 20:47, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Revision as of 20:47, 11 April 2019

User:Boleyn is the same editor as User:Boleyn2 and User:Boleyn3. I used to use the three log-ins to increase my watchlist, but they can now all fit on one.

This editor is a
Master Editor
and is entitled to display this Platinum
Editor Star
.

I'm editing much less than I used to, so please don't be surprised if a reply takes several days. I will reply as soon as I'm back editing.

Thanks for the review!

Thanks for the review!
Many thanks for your due diligence on Saint John Newland. I'm brushing up my Wikipedia skills, and this was my first shot. I mostly fix typos and make other minor page edits. I want to highlight some of the history from my home town and link everything together. It was the 2017 European City of Culture. Who knows? Someone may be interested!!! sugarfish (talk) 00:46, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your message and for creating an article! Boleyn (talk) 07

NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships – Men's 60 meter dash

You just left a tag on NCAA Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships – Men's 60 meter dash complaining about inline citations. You did not detail your complaint on talk. Normally I regard such incomplete messages as vandalism, see my talk page, but since this is so recent, lets try to address this AGF. This is a list article. The sources of the list, two of them, are listed at the bottom. All of the information of this article comes from those two sources. All of the disambiguation is done through my knowledge of these individuals and is backed by the contents of their individual articles. What other inline citations are possible? Just what do you expect? Do you understand the subject you are commenting on? Trackinfo (talk) 20:44, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, that's a rude message. It has no inline citation, so it is tagged as having no inline citations. Please see WP:INLINECITE for more info. Boleyn (talk) 20:46, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You might regard it as rude. You obviously do not know the damage you cause to the articles you tag. You do it often, sometimes two such tags inserted within into multiple articles over a minute's time span. What kind of quality editing is that? And lazy. If you have an issue with the contents of an article, blasting your personal opinion on the front page damages not only the article but the overall credibility of wikipedia. You have a much better option of taking your complaint to the much less public talk page and using . . . words . . . to describe what you think is wrong. Had you not been in such a rush in order to be lazy, in the least, you should have done that additional step. You STILL haven't. All this over a meaningless technicality on a supportive list article that will receive low traffic. This type of drive by tagging happens too frequently, particularly to new articles. Somebody has got to bark back. Tag, its me. Trackinfo (talk) 07:40, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Boleyn,

Yes, I already know you, nice to meet you! The article was only redirected by me, for the continuation you must talk with Herodotptlomeu. Christina

Sorry about the template, Cristina neagu, since it was changed I'm effectively introducing myself to everyone :)! Thanks for letting me know, Boleyn (talk) 17:03, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dylan Connolly

Could you provide a reason why you unreviewed Dylan Connolly? I'm guessing you regard it as unsourced, however there are three external links which clearly reference everything in the article. Kosack (talk) 15:59, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Kosack, all biographies of living people need inline citations - this had none, and no clear references. 'External links' essentially means 'suggestions for further reading' although sometimes it is also the source - but that needs to be clear. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 17:05, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A one sentence article with three external links is unclear? Links to external statistics sites are used throughout all sporting articles on Wikipedia for sourcing players basic information. Kosack (talk) 17:10, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it's unclear if those were the sources used, and which source was used for which bit - hence why we need inline citations for biographies of living people. No problem with having external links, but there need to be references too. Boleyn (talk) 17:23, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BLP advocates inline citations for material likely to be challenged, not all information. Kosack (talk) 18:23, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Pretty much anything on a blp is potentially contentious, especially when it includes the full dob (see WP:BLPPRIVACY). The guidelines are that: Citations are especially desirable for statements about living persons, particularly when the statements are contentious or potentially defamatory. In accordance with the biography of living persons policy, unsourced information of this type is likely to be removed on sight. This didn't just lack inline citations, which had no references at all, just suggestions for further reading. Boleyn (talk) 18:35, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
WP:BLPPRIVACY actually states the exact opposite, we publish dobs by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public. A club website (and probably the other two) would fall perfectly into that category. If the subject complains about its inclusion, then we may have an issue but we don't.
Again, the information was not unsourced just not inline sourced. All three of the references used were in direct accordance with the use of external links within the MoS at WP:FOOTBALL, namely two statistic sites and a direct link to the player's club website profile. You even tagged the article as unsourced, when we have Template:No footnotes for this exact reason. The wording of the template documentation clearly states that an article may contain general references, just not inline sources. Kosack (talk) 20:11, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Kosack, I'm unclear why you are sending me all these messages. It needed information to be inline but wasn't tagged as such - readers shouldn't have to rawl to find where the information comes from. There are regularly concerns raised/threats made by notable people who have concerns about the information written on them - we need to be clear. Boleyn (talk) 19:57, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You unreviewed an article with no explanation, then incorrectly tagged it. So I brought the discussion here. I've already stated why above. Kosack (talk) 21:52, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Catherine Pole

Catherine Pole is not a major player but in the context of the genealogical situation in the Tudor period, she has importance. I have never seen a circular link before. If you are going to do that, you ma as well give her her own article. Trahelliven (talk) 05:09, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Trahelliven, I think you may have sent this to the wrong user. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 19:53, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

About the "Tribunal de Paris" article

Hi, Boleyn. I had the idea to start the Tribunal de Paris article when it was the "Featured Tall Building" on SkyscraperCenter.com for December 2018. Also, the French Wikipedia has an article on the Tribunal de Paris, and so does the German Wikipedia. Jim856796 (talk) 03:06, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That's great, Ji, it just needs you to add your references. Thanks for your work on WIkipedia, Boleyn (talk) 19:55, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Communication

I was unaware that I was going to be notified when I didn't communicate for a lengthy period of time. As with most Wikipedia users my goal is to fix mistakes and add missing information on pages. Thanks!

CRussG, thanks for replying and your efforts are appreciated. If people take the time to message you, it is best to respond. Creating multiple unreferenced articles causes problems. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 07:31, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Max Leo Keller Citations

I know that the article Max Leo Keller is under-cited, however I don't have any more citations. It was a direct(ish) translation from the German wiki. I copied over the one citation from that article, and checked today to see if there more more. Unfortunately, that's all I have.  Mailman9  (talk)  18:45, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Mailman9, it's always difficult with translations but thanks for perservering. I tagged it as unreferenced but see you've improved it since then, so I changed the tag. Thanks for creating this, Boleyn (talk) 08:06, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please tell me how can I convert Draft into a page. I have created this draft. You can see. Bilal190023 (talk) 05:45, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Bilal190023, thanks for your message. YOu've done everything right, it is submitted for review, it just may take a few days, a maximum of 7 weeks (though that's unlikely). It'll be good for it to have a bit of time as it would be rejected at the moment. It needs referneces from reliable sources and needs to be totally re-written - it reads like an advert and it needs to be more neutral and encyclopaedic. Thanks for starting this, with a bit of work it should be accepted soon. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 08:08, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Could you spare some time to help me?

Hi Boylyn, I was wondering if you could spare some time to help me with my draft? I got a bizarre message from another person on my page which I see you answered- I looked you up- and wow- you are the ULTIMATE wiki editor. I have worked hard on the new draft- any help, when you have time would be appreciated. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Laura_Liguori I got some help from the teahouse which was great and appreciated!

Thank You — Preceding unsigned comment added by SilviaTRE388 (talkcontribs) 06:02, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, SilviaTRE388, thanks for your message. I've looked it over and removed imdb as a source, although it's a useful external link. Is it [WP:Autobiography]]? It has a general air of being an advert, I can try to prune that. Thanks for your work, Boleyn (talk) 08:19, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I really appreciate the help! Thank you for your time! Any changes please make! I totally trust your decisions and will learn from what you do for my next update! I am learning as I go this is my second article and I have much to learn still! Thank you for your work and for making wiki what is today!

An even more bizarre tag is the fact that you felt a need to leave a reply on User talk:SilviaTRE388 about something I was speaking to a Wikipedia member about. This post is in response to a message you left on their talk page. I was merely expressing to them how I felt about this ongoing experience with draftspace with someone else. I assumed it might be the same feelings for them. Why would you criticize ("Quite a bizarre tag, PeaceShield5" and "passive aggressive and irrelevant...") or comment on something I said to someone else other than you? Also, you didn't leave the message on my talk page. That make it feels like a roundabout and indirect way of critiquing someone without actually confronting them about something, maybe it could even be considered by some as "passive aggressive and irrelevant". Also, other than expressing myself, I stated facts about my experience. I have read some of the comments and messages on your talk page, and whether you accept it or not, Wikipedia members have had problems with some of your actions. Also, thanks for moving the Draft:The Black Dahlia (graphic novel) to draftspace before I even had time to work on it. It has not been a pleasant experience. I'm fighting for a book to have an article. You may not find it "noteworthy," but it is. So thanks. PeaceShield5 (talk) 03:22, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

PeaceShield5, you tagged me in your message to the other user! That is also, and very deliberately, saying it to me. Boleyn (talk) 08:15, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't deliberate. At least I didn't see it that way. Nor was it intentional. Again, I did not see it in that way. If it came across that way, Boleyn, I honestly apologize. It wasn't nice, polite, or the right thing to do, no matter how I describe or phrase it. Again, truthfully, I just want to say I'm sorry. PeaceShield5 (talk) 08:12, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Diego Hernández disambiguation page

Cheers! I made an update to the Diego Hernández page but I wanted you to look at it, just in case. The disamb... page was for people's names but now it also includes a place. Are the templates correct? Thanks! --the eloquent peasant (talk) 13:50, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, 58.8.169.80, thanks for contacting me. I don't have the power to block anyone and I am able to log off for a week, but am tagging an experienced admin, Kudpung. Kudpung, do you think it has reached the threshold for action to be taken? Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 08:27, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Boleyn, I saw the Wikipedia:BLPPROD tags on the Ghanaian parliamentarians articles I created but didn't get time to deal with them yet.

Help with Disciple Recordings

Hello, DJAlexander, I'm afraid I can't find this article and I don't know enough about this area to be sure of adding reliable sources, but good luck with it and thanks fo working on new articles. Boleyn (talk) 19:19, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Russian Civil War

Hi Boleyn, I'll try to find some more references in English to back my translation of the Russian article on the Ural Army. This is not easy, but i do believe that the Russian article is based on sufficient references in Russian. In general, i'm convinced that the knowledge in the Western World about this important period in the history of Russia, should be increased. And i hope translating articles on the English Wikipedia can help, IF the articles are correct of course. Regards, Filiep (talk) 11:42, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Filiep, thsnks for your work on this. References in Russian are fine, just add them in if that's what you used. Thanks again, Boleyn (talk) 17:54, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article Improvements

Is there any way to get like a list of articles I have created that have been tagged so that I can work on improving them? Like is there a way to search for that info somewhere or would an admin possibly know? Adamtt9 (talk) 19:53, 8 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Great question, Adamtt9. There isn't, but I'll see if a tool can be done to do this - I would love to see my own and work on some from years ago and I'm sure others would find it useful. Your best bet at the moment is to go to 'user contributions' on the left-hand side, tick the box for page creations only, and you can see from there. If you're planning to work through them and would like me to manually make a list of tagged articles, I'm happy to do so, just message me. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 08:32, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've put in a bot request - fingers crossed. Boleyn (talk) 09:03, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
For Adamtt9 and any friendly tps, the answer is at WP:Bot request#Bot to generate list of editor's creations which have been tagged for improvements. I'll now be busy working on the many articles I created back in 2008 that have tags...that's me busy for a while! Boleyn (talk) 08:35, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New article referencing

Apologies for not responding to your message earlier, I have had limited time on here recently. The external links added on the articles are enough to serve as citations for the mentioned articles, I just wanted to find something stronger than that. Unfortunately I was not able to, so will use them as citations, and should have it done within the day. Kaiser matias (talk) 20:48, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Kaiser matias. Thanks, with 'external links' it can be unclear where you got the information, but if that's where you got it from, they'll be fine as citations/references. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 08:26, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited William Horsemonden-Turner, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Whig (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

NPR Newsletter No.17

Hello Boleyn,

News
Discussions of interest
  • Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
  • {{db-blankdraft}} was merged into G13 (Discussion)
  • A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
  • There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.
Reminders
  • NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.
NPP Tools Report
  • Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
  • copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
  • The NPP flowchart now has clickable hyperlinks.

Caroline Chesebro'

Hi there! Yes, I will add more categories. :) But I'm only 16 minutes into creating the article so there's that. --Rosiestep (talk) 18:13, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was doing NPP and Luciana Galvez came in the queue. In looking through the history I saw you had created it. I think Wikipedia, in general, takes a redirect approach to fictional characters these days but figured since you'd made the page in the first place that you would be well positioned to patrol it - should it be marked reviewed or sent to AfD for a discussion to restore the redirect?

Nomination of Luciana Galvez for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Luciana Galvez is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Luciana Galvez until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Onel5969 TT me 13:54, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Barkeep49 and onel5969. I just created it as a redirect, but will look over the article that's been created. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 17:50, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Oculus Rift (disambiguation)

Hello,

I saw that you proposed deletion of Oculus Rift (disambiguation). Is there a better way to clarify the difference between Oculus Rift as a line of headsets and the first device in the line?

Thank you.Anton.bersh (talk) 21:48, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Anton.bersh, thanks for your message. I added a WP:HATNOTE to the primary page, so hopefully everyone will be able to find the article. Thanks for your hard work, Boleyn (talk) 07:02, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On one case, Dick Green has a hat note, though I think it could just have a redirect to Richard Green (one of the people in the hat note actually is on the Disam page already) Wgolf (talk) 17:01, 25 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that Private press (disambiguation) should be deleted. Will you please handle it? Thanks Eurodog (talk) 13:27, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Eurodog, thanks. It'll be deleted within a few days. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 14:43, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

First, thanks for the note about the stub tagging, I honestly forgot to do that, and have added the related stub tag to the article. Second, I don't quite understand what you mean by me not responding to your messages? I see I addressed your concerns, and noted so on this page (see User_talk:Boleyn#New_article_referencing). Kaiser matias (talk) 12:43, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thnks you, Kaiser matias - I'll respond where the conversation started to keep it all together, otherwise it gets confusing. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 14:32, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Catherine Parr

There is a person vandalizing Catherine Parr's page and insisting her death date is the 7th. Her own tomb says her death date is the 5th of September. I could use some help on the page/talk page. Or if you could help me find someone to intervene I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. -- Lady Meg (talk) 20:47, 11 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
