Re: Would you mind unprotecting and redirecting E-dubble?

Re your message: I unprotected it and created the redirect. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:14, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Page mover granted

Hello, Elliot321. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

If you do not want the page mover right anymore, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Thank you, and happy editing! Primefac (talk) 17:51, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations

Your DYK hook about Snowflake ID drew 5,180 page views (432 per hour) while on the Main Page. It is the one of most viewed hooks so far during the month of February and has earned a place on the Best of February list. Keep up the great work! Cbl62 (talk) 10:40, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

I know this is a bit late, but I just wanted to thank you for resolving the whole issue with Joel S. Levine being put back into draftspace after publication in a peaceful and non-confrontational manner. I really appreciate your work! Yitz (talk) 06:36, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Creepy Joe

As creator of the redirect, I agree that your proposed target is better. Can probably be speedily closed. If you run into any of mine again you think have a better target, leave a message on my talk page and if I agree, then we can spare an RFD discussion. Hog Farm Talk 04:59, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Hog Farm: gotcha. I was considering retargeting, but I figured this change might be controversial since the section does have some relevant info. Anyway, have a good one. I'll close the RfD. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 05:01, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Involved closure

I've requested re-closure at WP:AN of the RfC you closed after voting in it. If you wish to review the instructions for closing RfCs, you can do so here. Best, Samsara 17:43, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Samsara fair enough. I figured that per "if the matter under discussion is not contentious and the consensus is obvious to the participants, then formal closure is neither necessary nor advisable", I could close the RfC, as the consensus was very clear and non-controversial - and the RfC was not attracting more comments with a potential change to that consensus.

DYK nomination of Eli Savit

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Elliot321

Thank you for creating FreeShop.

User:TheTechnician27, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

The only other reliable sources I could find about this software discuss it entirely within the context of the DMCA takedown, such as Gamasutra, the Daily Express (twice), and Nintendo Life (this one uses the Kotaku piece as its sole source). The only other reliable sources I can find tangentially related to the freeShop are about its creator, such as this article from Patch and this one from Patch this one from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Of course, however, these would be both largely outside this article's scope and probably wildly inappropriate to include as none of them even mention the freeShop.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|TheTechnician27}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 16:23, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

TheTechnician27 indeed, I do think the TorrentFreak source I used discussed the software outside of that context - and TorrentFreak is generally considered a reliable source. Also, yeah, I wasn't going to include the stuff about the developer's legal troubles, because while it's certainly the same person, it's not relevant nor is the person that generally notable (though, maybe? Edvalson v The State did cause some law changes, apparently, though not documented in reliable sources) Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 17:00, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Fuck

The article Fuck you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Fuck for issues which need to be addressed.

About my redirect pages I have been creating

Firstly I wanted to thank you for fixing a mistake I had made in Template:1959 United States elections. I could not find that one small bracket that I had missed and cannot thank you enough. Secondly, you had mentioned to me that redirects should be categorized and have a template on them. Another Wikipedian told me at one point that categories aren't needed. I'm not sure about the template part though. Plus, I must say that I appreciate you complementing me about creating these redirect pages and it makes my work have a higher level of value to it. It is my exact purpose to create these pages for navigational purposes.

Skim 01:48, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Skim127 glad I could help! As for redirect categories - the categories aren't absolutely necessary when making them but applying them is much appreciated - and please use the templates when available, they are preferable to the naked cats.

Telefongyár

Hi! The Telefongyár article contains translations from the Hungarian "Telefongyar" article. There are tons of English language references here: https://www.google.com/search?q=telefongyar+telephone&biw=3840&bih=2085&sxsrf=ALeKk00K9-Hg5qlcbHzhcQQYx3PzvGeguA%3A1614840607245&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A%2Ccd_max%3A&tbm=bks Can you move it back to the normal articles? I can add references too. --Durnheim (talk) 06:53, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Durnheim If you add the references to the article, I'll move it back. Both Hungarian and English language references are acceptable. {{cite web}} might be useful for citing online sources. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 06:54, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Eli Savit

On 7 March 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Eli Savit, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in 2020, Eli Savit was elected the prosecuting attorney of Washtenaw County, Michigan, on a promise to abolish the cash bail system? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Eli Savit. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Eli Savit), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.
