Seminole Heights Page

Hello. My edits were completely constructive and factual. They provide a source that the "official seal" of Seminole Heights is a hoax. It also provides the original source the false seal claims to have come from—the 1912 Hillsborough High School Yearbook. I have access to the yearbook and this false seal does not appear anywhere in it's pages, and the faked seal doesn't even have the company name correct. Please cease reverting my changes as they are valid and sourced. Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 4thgenTPA (talk • contribs)

Seminole Heights

When the source claims an image as proof that a seal existed in a year book, the only source that can refute that is an image of the original, unaltered source. What other source would you like me to provide? Certainly any other source would be second hand in this case. This isn't an image that disproves another image as factual, it's not being provided as a source to make a claim.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 4thgenTPA (talk • contribs)

Finneas Grammy Wins

Hello I see you had reverted the edits I had made on Finneas’ Grammy wins. I’ve already discussed this with several other users prior to putting in 6, he won record of the year, song of the year, album of the year, producer of the year, best engineered album, and best pop vocal album. You removed his win for best pop vocal album if you did your research it states the award also goes to the “Artist & Producer, Engineer/Mixer, if other than Artist, of greater than 50% playing time on the album“. He produced the whole album which is appropriate to add that he has 6 wins and not 5. It was also backed up by a reliable source stating 6. I will include the source coming from the Grammy website itself of who gets a Grammy award and who doesn’t.

What if he wasn't nominated? Every list published by the Grammy organization does not show him as a nominee, nor as a winner for Pop Vocal Album. For every source of 6 there are equally or more showing 5, yet only the 5's support the Grammy's own listings. Additionally, don't see any discussions madee by you and other users on his article, nor on the 62nd Grammy article pages.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 02:35, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The artist is the one with the “nomination” he only gets the Grammy due to producing more than 50% of the album. Which is again sourced. I’m assuming it may not be officially on his page on the Grammy site due to the fact it’s an artist award not a producer award. The discussion happened on a users talk page who has been editing much longer than you have, and another user also joined the discussion who also approved of the source stating 6. This really isn’t difficult to understand.Pillowdelight (talk) 02:45, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Discuss on the talk pages of the specific articles. That should be the process to involve multiple editors when there is a serious conflict in sources.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 03:14, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Well I discussed this with a user who reverted it, as what you did. You also said on both the Grammys and Finneas’ page “discuss on talk”. A bit confusing if you ask me, hence the reason why I’m talking to you on your talk page. It’s been like that for a few months or so stating 6 with a reliable source. You aren’t even arguing your point in saying he was awarded 5. You seem more or less just confused. I’ve already stated with a source stating 6 and I’ve shown you how he was awarded the sixth award. Again, this isn’t difficult to understand. He was awarded 6 not 5.

Pillowdelight (talk) 03:29, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since you seemingly have ignored me I have now found his page on the official Grammys page stating he’s won 6. So I will now also include this in the articles on the Grammys Page and his. Do not revert. It’s already been explained to you more than once now.

Not ignoring you, you have ignored the advice to discuss on the article talk page. Trolling rudeness will not help your cause.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 00:29, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Patrol December Newsletter

Hello Loriendrew,

A chart of the 2020 New Page Patrol Queue

Year in review

It has been a productive year for New Page Patrol as we've roughly cut the size of the New Page Patrol queue in half this year. We have been fortunate to have a lot of great work done by Rosguill who was the reviewer of the most pages and redirects this past year. Thanks and credit go to JTtheOG and Onel5969 who join Rosguill in repeating in the top 10 from last year. Thanks to John B123, Hughesdarren, and Mccapra who all got the NPR permission this year and joined the top 10. Also new to the top ten is DannyS712 bot III, programmed by DannyS712 which has helped to dramatically reduce the number of redirects that have needed human patrolling by patrolling certain types of redirects (e.g. for differences in accents) and by also patrolling editors who are on on the redirect whitelist.

Reviewer of the Year

John B123 has been named reviewer of the year for 2020. John has held the permission for just over 6 months and in that time has helped cut into the queue by reviewing more than 18,000 articles. His talk page shows his efforts to communicate with users, upholding NPP's goal of nurturing new users and quality over quantity.

NPP Technical Achievement Award

As a special recognition and thank you DannyS712 has been awarded the first NPP Technical Achievement Award. His work programming the bot has helped us patrol redirects tremendously - more than 60,000 redirects this past year. This has been a large contribution to New Page Patrol and definitely is worthy of recognition.

Six Month Queue Data: Today – 2262 Low – 2232 High – 10271

Mason Ramsey wiki page

I've been trying to update Mason Ramsey's birthday on his Wiki page for a while now, and the edit always gets undone. How should I cite a birthday? Isn't that just common knowledge? I don't know why the birthday is incorrect in the first place, but whenever I try to change it to what it should be, it gets undone because I didn't cite it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.145.128.80 (talk) 14:24, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For Biographies of living (or recently deceased) people proper sourcing is needed, common knowledge if often incorrect. Additionally there are privacy issues where the subject may not desire to have such personal information to be publicly available. Any source that uses user–generated content, such as any wiki–type site, unverified social media, IMdB, and many others may not be used as reliable since people can change it upon whim/vandalism. Legitimate biographical and news sites are generally valid, researched and vetted. Also have a peek at oft discussed reliability list.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 18:01, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sincere apologies

My apologies, sir. I was unaware of that prohibition. Wanted to make the two editors look 'intelligent'. With all sincerity, thank you for letting me know about this guideline.THX1136 (talk) 23:48, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please help with updating article

Hi, thanks for your feedback on my last edit on Annabelle Chvostek's page. I am trying to update this article with current information as the last info is from 2008. I'm not trying to promote anything, just updating the info on this artist. I did a "request edit" in the talk page disclosed that I am a family member of Annabelle Chvostek's. I am trying to be as neutral and factual as possible. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong so I can correct it. And if there's nothing I can do to update it, please let me know. In which case, do we have to wait for a fan or just anyone from the internet to update it? Please clarify as I do not understand. Thank you! Tplanter (talk) 16:25, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
