Formatting tools

I noticed that you were formatting some Google books citations. You may already be aware of it, but if you are not I think you might find http://reftag.appspot.com a useful tool. You will find some other tools at Wikipedia:Wikimedia Labs/Toolserver replacements and more at Wikipedia:Tools -- PBS (talk) 16:44, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, thank you. I use that reftag one as well as one at http://tools.wmflabs.org/yadkard/yadkard The second one gives both a plain as well as named reference citation. Thanks for the links, I will check them out. WordSeventeen (talk) 17:20, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give an example of the information that is repeated. Nightscream (talk) 04:28, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes thank you Nightscream, for instance on the Kim Kardashian article please see the tables for TV, filmography and awards. Then the prose in the article has these several statements that give the same information contained in the table.
Occasionally there may be an extra item or some bit of info, but most of these below are the same info:
  • Kardashian played Elle in four episodes of the television series Beyond the Break.
  • .....and guest judge on America's Next Top Model in August of that year.
  • In October 2007, Kardashian, in addition to her mother Kris; her step-father Bruce; her siblings Kourtney, Khloé, and Rob; and half-sisters Kendall and Kylie began to appear in the reality television series Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
  • she made her feature film debut in the disaster film spoof Disaster Movie, in which she appeared as a character named Lisa.
  • Kardashian made a cameo appearance during an episode of the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, in the episode "Benefits"
It just goes on and on like that through this whole article and many others in the group. Plus please note there are inline citations in the prose, and then the tables with what appears to be the same reference.

Thank you for looking this over, Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 01:30, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that

I saw earlier people putting pinging people on afds for those who put up the notability tag which I did that on a article that I didn't realize that many people put one up. Wgolf (talk) 02:24, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't think it be a problem, so yeah I'll stop. (I've just seen it done by others so I thought it wasn't a big deal-though after one article I was thinking it might be too much) Wgolf (talk) 02:28, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nice that you say sorry. But who was the user that added the references that you refer to when you said

"Well the blp prod was removed since it got refs" hmmm? Did you ping or notify that editor? Can you tell me the name of the editor? You seem to be overall a good editor @Wgolf but I do not understand your brevity when you approach these articles that you consider for deletion. Have you ever considered trying to improve an article now and then? Or maybe help a new editor to fix a ref that they found, but it just was not formatted correctly? For example today I came across an article today where you had reverted an edit where the person did not have the ref formatted correctly at Jagdeo Prasad. Here is the diff, if you are interested in what I saw on the page when I looked up this " 05:08, April 7, 2015‎ Wgolf (talk | contribs)‎ . . (2,573 bytes) (-583)‎ . . (ref does not exist) " Before you reverted the edit [1], after you reverted the edit [2]

If you look closely at the reference it appeared like a bare url on the page. It looked like this:

http://www.countercurrents.org/ayadav020211.htmhttp://www.countercurrents.org/ayadav020211.htm

The editor just probably pasted it twice. If you just click on that it will give you a 404, but the ref does exist. Just erase he duplicate url, and you will go straight to the page the editor was trying to use as a reference.

Of course you are not really required to do any of this. But as for me, my goal is to help to improve the encyclopedia, improve articles, occasionally create articles, and try to help others who may not know how to do that one little thing that could help them to improve the articles. What are your goals here at wikipdia Wgolf? Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 02:51, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

Hi dear WordSeventeen! Thank you for reviewing my article Shahram Qadir and I appreciate it. You have left a tag which required a more reliable source for biography. I have already proven sources for this short biography, both in English and Farsi. And on External Links section I put once more IMDb as information source for this person's biography which is the same information on magazines that I have referred to as sources. I will be grateful if you review once again my article and if it is possible remove the tag. Best regards Wikipedia 14:21, 8 April 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iranian Cinematographers (talkcontribs)

Thanks for leaving a comment at AfD for the above article. However, I want to let you know that I changed my Keep vote to Delete vote after I reviewed the article again following a recent addition of sources that established the subject notability. In lieu of this your comment per my initial vote may no longer valid, perhaps you should consider to take a look. Thanks! Wikigyt@lk to M£ 18:23, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Family trees

I do not know of any help pages. That is not because they may not exist it is just that I do not know of any. How to build a simple family tree is described in the documentation to template:chart. There is also the old template:familytree which is now deprecated in favour of {{chart}} which seems to have the same documentation. You may also like to look in category:family trees to see some more complicated examples.

If they are templates then they are often collapsed with {{navbox}}. See for example Template:Family tree of William Jardine (1784-1843) which also shows how to include citations within such a template.

If you want to isolate the footnotes for the chart you can do it using this:

{{chart top|An example family tree}}
<center>
{{chart/start}}
{{chart| | | |GrMa |~|y|~| GRP | |GrMa=Grandma{{efn-lr|A first class citation}}|GRP=Grandpa}}
{{chart| | | | | | | |)|-|-|-|.| }}
{{chart| | | MOM |y| DAD | |DAISY|MOM=Mom|DAD=Dad|DAISY=[[Aunt Daisy]]}}
{{chart| |,|-|-|-|+|-|-|-|.| | | }}
{{chart| JOE | | ME  | | SIS | | |JOE=My brother Joe|ME='''Me!'''|SIS=My little sister}}
{{chart/end}}
|- 
|style="text-align: left;"|'''Notes:'''
{{notelist-lr}}<!--- use either {{Efn-lr}} and/or <ref group=lower-roman /> To fill this notelist -->
</center>

{{chart bottom}}

produces this:

An example family tree
Grandma[i]Grandpa
MomDadAunt Daisy
My brother JoeMe!My little sister
Notes:
  1. ^ A first class citation

I hope that helps. -- PBS (talk) 10:54, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keeping Wikipedia Expanding Not Shrinking

Hello User:WordSeventeen sorry for disturbing you. The reason I am writing you is we all love Wikipedia and we want it expanding. However there is a discussion going on to delete a notable game article because of biased opinions. I saw that you edited this article: Dokapon_Ikari_no_Tekken and let it stay for further expansion, update and keep growing Wikipedia even though it has no references. But I am also totally agree with you to let articles stay for improvements and expand Wikipedia. So I believe you are a neutral, professional, objective and who believes in expanding Wikipedia not shrinking it type of person. So I would like you to check out this discussion Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/MonsterMMORPG_(2nd_nomination) and make your comment based on references it has. References are here Talk:MonsterMMORPG. Please feel free to delete my message to you after you read it. Thank you very much have a nice day.176.233.41.152 (talk) 14:10, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In my judgement User:Winkelvi was out of order to accuse you of acting in bad faith for bringing an RfC. However if you were to open an WP:ANI over the second bad faith posting by User:Winkelvi to Talk:Simon Collins#RFC regarding a passage, given the information I posted to you page here, there is a strong possibility that it would partially boomerang on you, as Winkelvi is making the point, witht some empirical evidence, that your are targeting pages which Winkelvi has recently edited.

I suggest that you let this RfC play out and take my advise. I will not sanction Winkelvi for the second bad faith posting, because to do so could be seen as vindictive by me. You are of course free to take it up at ANI, but I think that this and that give more than enough information for uninvolved editors who come to comment at the RfC to draw their own conclusions, without the need for further administrative action. If Winkelvi continues to play the man and not the ball (to draw on a soccer analogy) then then referee cards may need to be produced (to continue the analogy). -- PBS (talk) 11:10, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So user:WordSeventeen is correct when (s)he writes "I began this RFC and I am certainly allowed to participate in the RFC. Please comment on the issue at hand and do not attack any specific editor winkelvi."(diff)

The reason why you have done this is because you have not read my whole posting. If You had you would have noticed the comment "If Winkelvi continues to play the man and not the ball (to draw on a soccer analogy) then then referee cards may need to be produced (to continue the analogy). which clearly refers to your previous bad faith postings to this disputed RfC, and if I had intended that WordSeventeen to leave the RfC alone I would not have said that but told WordSeventeen to do so in no uncertain terms.

clear up a source question

wonder if you can help, as I appear to have come to an impasse because nobody from the martial arts site has yet responded, which is very unusual as they are usually extremely keen and quick to jump on things. Anyhow, I need to clear up a source question issue that I asked on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fumiaki_Shishida as it affects other aikido articles, therefore, I appealed for help to clear up the question of, is the source http://www.aikidojournal.com/encyclopedia.php?entryID=612 listed in the fumiaki shisida article sound ? The question is raised in so much as the source states that shishida is " Currently a member of the Board of Directors and a technical director of the JAPAN AIKIDO ASSOCIATION." And when this statement was used recently in an update of another aikido article, then the update was readily undone and the reason given for its undoing was that it was incorrect information. The question isn't about the undoing of an update as I have no issue with the update being undone, but in the action of the undoing of the update for that reason it raises the question of, if the information is indeed incorrect, then the http://www.aikidojournal.com/encyclopedia.php?entryID=612 source is not a sound source and its inclusion therefore, in the fumiaki shisida article and any of the other wiki article is questionable. But if the source is sound and the statement is correct, then there can be no objection with both the source and the update remaining. Chunlinc (talk) 07:22, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Maintenance Tags from Sayyed Ibn Tawus

Information icon Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Ormr2014 | Talk  13:01, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

You left a terse note here reprimanding me for removing maintenance templates from an article without correcting the problems here [4] I did not remove any templates. I made two formatting edits and a third edit to fill a bare reference. The maintenance templates were clearly still there as evidenced in the diff above. It looks like the next editor may have removed the templates. Please look more closely at the diff before accusing editors in the future. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 15:13, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is a bit redundant, as you left the same message on my Talk Page. The revision history indicates that you did indeed remove the maintenance tags. See the Revision History Ormr2014 | Talk  15:17, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reason why you've suggested a merge between List of cricketers who have taken five wickets on ODI debut and List of Test cricketers who have taken two five-wicket hauls on debut, but only tagged one of the articles, and not given a reason for it?

James Rhodes

Hello!

Thanks for your work at James Rhodes (pianist). Some articles are more "trying" than others, I know. It may help if you lay out the specific issues you see with the text that the IP keeps inserting. At a glance, it doesn't look too far off to me. The IPs method of editing (edit warring, walls of unformatted text on talk, etc) is not okay, but if you can provide some guidance at the talk page perhaps we can all find some copy we're satisfied with.

Also, since the material is now sourced in a couple reliable independent sources, it is possible that an admin won't grant the BLP exemption to WP:3RR. I recommend that you stop reverting as well (if the IP puts the content back) and instead use the talk page to come up with something reasonable. Someone will come along and look at the edit warring so far, and you don't want to be participating.

Noted. Thanks. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 04:04, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

BLP sources

Per WP:BLPSOURCES any editor can delete unsourced claims and biographical material as I did at Uttam Bandu Tupe. I'll wait a bit to see what you're planning to do with it, but please do not revert again, in accordance wih the guideline policy cited above. Brianhe (talk) 05:32, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for being most reasonable. I will complete adding all the references and citations by the end of this business week. I have been delayed because my other three folders of research on this author are at my office. I do also have several add on articles to also post. Frankly, I was glad to remember about the article because I had prepared a grand expansion. I have been so busy lately that I had completely forgotten about the whole affair! I do hope you do not find me rude in reverting the good faith deletions you had done, but it was much quicker than re-adding the info back one by one. I appreciate your patience and collaboration on the project, and I hope to encounter you again sometime. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 08:46, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:00, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Johnuniq I was having some browser issues. Sorry for any inconvenience. Cheers! WordSeventeen (talk) 12:53, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

De Prod'd page

Why did you de-prod the ABC page? I discussed it with our team and we do not want to be associated with Wikipeda.RobertABC — Preceding undated comment added 21:19, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Angie Littlefield requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. — cocomonkilla | talk | contrib 23:56, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
