Hi Euryalus, Happy New Year. Note: I still remember that when I was taught to spell in Australia (it never really took all that well), in the mid to late 1950s, it was "i-ZED-e-d". Times change. Regards, Acad Ronin (talk) 22:48, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this

That IP is a longtime troll and nothing they do should be taken seriously. I am actually also working on the article at the moment as well. —DangerousJXD (talk) 11:39, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@DangerousJXD: Yep. Materialscientist beat me to the first block, but I got the second one. If the return let me know and will semi-protect the page. Be good, however, if you could add some more references to demonstrate notability. I imagine that this should be fairly easy for such a lengthy franchise, but a) it's not my area, and b) i'm on a mobile device so research work isn't ideal. Good luck with your article improvemens, and please do remove the tags once you've added some refs and strengthened the notability claim. -- Euryalus (talk) 11:45, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm just about finished for the day so I won't be around for about nine hours. Judging by their recent activity, they'll probably return in two hours with some other tactic. References will be in the article within three days, probably tomorrow. —DangerousJXD (talk) 11:54, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for HMS Stork (1756)

On 4 January 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article HMS Stork (1756), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the 10-gun sloop-of-war HMS Stork was originally designed to resemble King George II's yacht Royal Caroline? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/HMS Stork (1756). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, HMS Stork (1756)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.

Your removal of Extended confirmed from Marlo Jonesa

Hey there, quick question, Per Motion, the Arbitration committee has specifically said:

–Administrators are not permitted to remove the extendedconfirmed user group as a discretionary sanction. −Administrators must not remove the extendedconfirmed user group as means of bypassing defined arbitration enforcement procedures (for example, removing the user group as a normal administrative action to avoid banning an editor from the Gamergate controversy article.

Your removal seems to be counter to that motion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.40.144.21 (talk) 13:04, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and thanks for the message. The removal was not a discretionary sanction or a "normal administrative action;" it was the outcome of a defined arbitration enforcement procedure at WP:AE. -- Euryalus (talk) 13:24, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Emporium Melbourne

Hi there

You deleted the article Emporium Melbourne last August. Could you please restore it to Draft:Emporium Melbourne so I can see whether the article can be brought up to scratch? There is clearly some interest in it with several previous attempts and numerous articles linking there.

Many thanks. —sroc 💬 15:15, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sroc: Done, it's at User:sroc/Emporium Melbourne. Went with userspace draft rather than just Draft, as I've noticed the occasional tendency in draft cleanup drives for draft articles to be moved into mainspace prematurely and then speedy deleted. Good luck with expanding and sourcing the article. -- Euryalus (talk) 22:06, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Euryalus. —sroc 💬 09:09, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Quarterly Milhist Reviewing Award: Oct to Dec 16

The Barnstar of Diplomacy
Thank you! Marlo Jonesa (talk) 22:30, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but assume this is meant ironically as my response was not especially diplomatic.-- Euryalus (talk) 01:52, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I wanted to thank you for your efforts, anyway thank you and apologize for the inconvenience, wish you a happy day.--Marlo Jonesa (talk) 02:04, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Jimbo's user talk

First of all, thanks for intervening in my argument with Beyond My Ken. I agree that letting it continue the way it had been going wasn't likely to be productive.

That said, I'm concerned about what the eventual outcome will be if we just cut if off. As I mentioned in that thread, I have past experience with other editors following me from one discussion to another, assuming bad faith about all of my edits. When that happens and nothing is done to address the root issue, it can go on for years.

In this case my concern is that the same argument, about whether the circumstances of my 2010 topic ban excuse other editors from having to assume good faith about any of my edits, will just resume on some future talk page where I decide to participate. (And that's something else I've experienced in the past.) Short of requesting an interaction ban, can you think of any way to avert that outcome? --Captain Occam (talk) 07:49, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the message. Really, i'd just go edit some articles. If you're concerned that others may try to mischaracterise your work, try working in some uncontroversial fields to start - that way any bad faith exhibited by others will be more easily identifiable as such. If people deliberately hound you, raise his on the relevant noticeboards, but otherwise just build up a solid editing record and you'll find that some of the naysayers lose their impact. You also mentioned a GA you worked on some years ago - pick an article you like and make another one. In my view that's more rewarding than any number of abstruse discussions on Jimbo's talk page.
Just suggestions - you're not prohibited in any way from continuing your Jimbo's discussion, but it's really going nowhere at present and I'd say it's time to move along to some content work.
I'd appreciate you and the other arbitrators taking a look at these edits: [1] [2] [3] I don't expect this to necessarily change the nature of your advice for me, but it's relevant to one of the things I recently brought up on the ArbCom mailing list. When I expressed concern there about other users possibly trying to spread their grievances from the R&I arbitration case into other topics, I got the impression that ArbCom thought I was just being paranoid.
As I said in Jimbo's user talk, I experienced basically the same thing from other users before my ban, so this is all very predictable. Do these edits give ArbCom better understanding of why my concerns are justified? --Captain Occam (talk) 23:51, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You're correct; those were inappropriate edits, and they've been removed. I note the editor who made them has also agreed not to do it again, and nor should they. There will understandably be some people who are less than welcoming given the previous ban, but as above I think these will fade over time if you now build up a productive content editing record. As a personal opinion, the Jimbo Wales talk thread is not especially productive and doesn't help cast your current editing in a new light. But as above, you're not "prohibited" from continuing it in any way. -- Euryalus (talk) 00:03, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Once again!

I've made a request on extended confirmed but has been rejected again!!?.--Marlo Jonesa (talk) 17:13, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Marlo Jonesa: Hi, apologies for delay in replying - its 83 degrees here so am a bit slow moving. You are still editing within the prohibited topic area, and those edits will continue not to count toward approval for extendedconfirmed. Suggest in the first instance you discuss this with Samtar as the declining admin. -- Euryalus (talk) 05:17, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No problem at all, thank you and good day.--Marlo Jonesa (talk) 13:46, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Signpost Arbitration interview request

Hi there. I am lead writer for the Signpost's "Arbitration Report" and am wondering if you would be interested in answering some interviews questions as a newly elected Arbitrator. The questions can be asked through email, unless answering them here would be a more suitable choice. GamerPro64 20:26, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@GamerPro64: Feel free to ask any questions here. -- Euryalus (talk) 21:51, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Questions

1. What was the single most important reason you wanted to join ArbCom?

2. What are your thoughts on the outcomes to cases from the previous year? Did you think they were handled the best that they could have? Why?

3. Personally I felt that last year there was barely anything the committee did, with 2016 only having five cases that went through. Compared to 2015’s eighteen cases and 2014’s eleven, is it to be expected that the committee is more strict on choosing which cases get accepted?

4. What would you say would be the challenges while holding this position?

GamerPro64 03:30, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

so whats with transport?

Ports removal noted - what makes transport any better? maritime issues on wp have never seemed to survive various very weird shifts and changes - whats next? JarrahTree 10:16, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ports was in fact a useful separation, and what with ships and its imperial drift 5 to 7 years ago, it was going and swallowing heaps of things that didnt relate to it - and now maritime task force ? - smells what ships was trying to do then - grab bag scope well beyond its means - at least some bright spark hasnt swallowed up shipwrecks (yet) - (sorry to sound so disparaging) - imho maritime history (never left the blocks unfortunately), shipwrecks and maritime trades should have been kept well clear of transport and ships - monsters with little subtlety and unable to to accommodate the nuances and issues relating to the scope and subject areas. Just thoughts as you have removed the ports... no hard personal feelings, just ruminating on the weirdness of some of the quirks of wp en... JarrahTree 10:29, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dont worry I am fully au fait with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Transport/Maritime_transport_task_force the rational level headed explanation, its just I feel somewhat frustrated I never had the time, at the time to be a proselitizer for something better than ships and the maritime transport task forse - to me it reflects something that could have been done better. cest la vie or whatever JarrahTree 10:48, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi JarrahTree. It's what was agreed many years ago, as a merger between both Ports and Maritime Trades into Transport. Each of these had effectively one active member - me in Ports and Haus in Maritime Trades. We vaguely hoped that combining them into Transport would bring the larger editor base that we had tried and failed to attract. I agree that Transport isn't ideal, but the options are a little thin. There's life and speciality in Ships, but not enough synchronicity with Ships editors and ports pages. If you can think of anywhere better for these ports pages to go, other than the current inactive project, then let's propose that instead. Or if you think we should simply try to revive the Ports project, then am happy to reverse the changes and propose it again for new consensus - anything to try bringing these articles to a more engaged audience.
In passing I did also like the Maritime History project, but agree it never really got the attention it deserved.-- Euryalus (talk) 10:55, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for such a positive response to a blithering old idiot like me - having started the Australan Maritime History project (still active and working) I was keen to have an umbrella for that and the Irish - I had put up a proposal at the council for a maritime history project - but realise that it died on the proposal (I think I had real life issues at the time that didnt allow me the chance to develop it or proseltyse for it) from this long distance view (I had forgotten you and Haus had been the sole props so to speak...for the earlier two, my sincerest apology for my casting aspersions) this all feels like my attempt after the Hong Kong wikimania to argue for the resurrection of either the espionage and intelligence projects (both were moribund at the time) - I think the whole thing went the wrong way (imho) - big problem, an idea, even if it is a potentially good one, doesnt necessarily get traction... With the loss of ports and the maritime task force and current situation, I'd need to get back to you - still thinking, but once again - thank you for your tolerance of my opinionated judgement - it is appreciated JarrahTree 11:18, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Synchronized talk page redirects

Happy New Year, Euryalus! In regard to this edit, if you have your prefs set to see hidden categories, you will note that your edit landed the redirect back into Category:Unsynchronized talk page redirects. I've been emptying that category because, as you know, talk page redirect targets should be in sync with their subject pages' targets. In this case the subject page targets a ship index, and Talk:Scarborough (East Indiaman), the synchronized target, does not exist. I try to get to these to get them deleted, so wouldn't the correct procedure be to CSD (G8) the redirect at Talk:Scarborough (ship)?  Paine Ellsworth  u/c 17:21, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Newyorkbrad capitalization

See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArbitration_Committee%2FNoticeboard&type=revision&diff=762146560&oldid=762139006 NewYorkBrad should be Newyorkbrad. I'd fix it almost anywhere else but figure editing noticeboard posts isn't advisable. NativeForeigner Talk 23:23, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NativeForeigner, I wouldn't have minded if you'd done it, but thanks, fixed. -- Euryalus (talk) 23:24, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Supreme Genghis Khan statue to Genghis Khan Equestrian statue

This seems odd - you should either capitalize both of equestrian and statue, or neither. Personally, I'd treat it as a proper name. Equestrian statue of Genghis Khan is actually the route many articles take (try the WP search), but maybe not so easy to find. Johnbod (talk) 11:54, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, someone else has fixed it. Johnbod (talk) 03:04, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Johnbod: Sorry for the delayed response, am in an unpopular time zone. Agree with the capitalization for Statue, though your alternative name would have served just as well. -- Euryalus (talk) 03:14, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Admin noticeboard

@Euryalus: I initially made my first edit to their talk page back in December 2016 asking them to stop - at that time they weren't blocked. They never replied to my message when they were unblocked, it was only after they were blocked that they started to reply. So I decided to reply and I tried to tell them that there are sources there to support the information so you can't remove blocked information. Their latest message showed me that they didn't really do much, instead they started to cuss at me. That's why I brought it to the Wikipedia Admin noticeboard. (110.148.124.58 (talk) 11:29, 9 February 2017 (UTC))[reply]

Understood, and no editor deserves to be randomly abused like that. However there doesn't seem much mileage in a longer block for an IP and am reluctant to protect an IP talkpage; unless they try to evade the block it's probably easiest to unwatch their talkpage and move on with editing. FWIW am not suggesting fault on your part, just moving the issue along with the least possible drama. -- Euryalus (talk) 12:24, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, I guess it'll only be for the better if there was no drama. Thanks for understanding my issue and helping @Euryalus:, I'll stop looking at their talk page. (110.148.124.58 (talk) 13:13, 9 February 2017 (UTC))[reply]

ANI Section closure

Just wanted to give you an FYI, the section you closed Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Bad faith user just had a response 2 days later from the subject: [4]. RickinBaltimore (talk) 14:52, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@RickinBaltimore: Thanks. Still not clear if they've actually read the policy, but at least they're now using the article talkpage instead of edit-warring in the article itself. Will keep an eye on it (and the various IPs that comment on the same topic). -- Euryalus (talk) 20:09, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

big pharma destructive reverts by User:Alexbrn

Since there appears to be a common - somewhat offhanded-manner - tendency not to follow my complaints, I will again make my point here: you will see no more contributions from my side exactly because User:Alexbrn and the others have successfully purged any trace of the edits that I made to Big Pharma, Big Pharma (disambiguation) (deleted) and Big Pharma conspiracy theory. There is not a trace left. Not on the pages, nor on the talk pages (where I had given the reasons with references for my edits shortly after Alexbrn left me his first blunt message on my talk page. He calls himself a "dragon" who will boldly edit anything on his user page. I grant him that he does not bear this signature for nothing. I repeat here: My edits were irretrievably deleted, all that remains are traces of my page moves. This is what I call silencing. And I cannot but feel sneered at when he says that I have no right to WP:OWNERSHIP which is exactly the right that he has exercised for the good of his own article. Far from expecting (or believing) that my own contributions are treated as sacred I have a good mind to officially doubt the neutrality of WP here, especially since the topic we have been touching on appears to be one of particular subtlety. Please take a few minutes to ponder that. -- Kku (talk) 11:03, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Criteria for speedy deletion

Hi again. I have made a new proposal at the talk page and I would appreciate it if you could now offer your opinion. Thank you. Linguisttalk|contribs 18:26, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

maybe

I think the CSD A7 proposal at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Raleigh_Black&type=revision&diff=766089858&oldid=766088561 really needed something more than an edit summary - it is a clear misuse of the CSD A7 rules, and I have been pulled up on CSD misapplication at new pages a few times myself: one of the things at speedy and new pages [5] - when in doubt dont do it is the message - and I suspect talkpage and edit history suggests leniency is being too kind JarrahTree 01:47, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@JarrahTree: Agreed. According to edit stats I've made 3,200 deletions over time, so am clearly not a rabid inclusionist. But am routinely mystified at the enthusiasm for speedy-tagging articles with notability claims. Due allowance for mistakes, but repeated misuse of speedy deletion tags is disruptive editing. Too late to warn in this case, but you're right that it deserved more than just an edit summary decline.-- Euryalus (talk) 04:00, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Saint Peter the Apostle Orthodox Church, Fresno

What is wrong with an encyclopedic stub on an orthodox church in Fresno, CA? It's been there since 1957 as I cited (as well as location and website). Is it because it's a church? AprilHare (talk) 22:12, 23 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@AprilHare: Hi, and thanks for the message. The problem with the article is that there is no indication the church is notable. To be eligible for an encyclopedia entry, the church would need to have been the subject of significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. There's more detail on how this is applied at this policy page. As deleted, the article included an infobox showing the church's location, and only the following text: "St Peter the Apostle Serbian Orthodox Church is a church at 3502 N First St in Fresno, California." I'm absolutely certain that's all true, but alas it's not enough for a Wikipedia page.
If you do think the church is notable enough for Wikipedia page, it may be good to explore (for example) whether it has any unique and well-documented architectural features, has played a significant and recorded role in the Californian Serbian Orthodox community, or is documented as a particular focal point for the people of Fresno. Notability criteria in Wikipedia terms can be achieved in a million different ways, but they all require sourcing as described above. If there's insufficient secondary coverage to meet Wikipedia's requirements it may also be possible to include what references there are on the church, in a wider article on either Fresno or the Serbian orthodox community. There's more advice on this here.
Hope that's useful info, and please let me know if you feel it still fails to explain why the article was removed. -- Euryalus (talk) 00:56, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

NSW Department of Planning and Environment revert

Hi there Euryalus, I'm unsure why you reverted this edit of the NSW Department of Planning and Environment. I have today made further edits to the page including additional references.

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
  • updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
