Reminder: your work notes on Talk:Bill 28 (British Columbia)

I moved them to User:Ottawahitech/Bill 28 (British Columbia) notes. Please keep the talk page for discussion of the article. Thanks. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 17:07, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Quality C for BC Transplant Society

Howdy @Ottawahitech , You just assessed as C-level Quality for the new BC Transplant Society. And too often there are negative comments by wikipedia users. So hope is okay to say THank You for being first contributor after my creation of the article. And also Level C that says needs more information and references is very accurate so I am thankful for your assessment. And also adding categories to the Talk page. I was hoping health editors with more knowledge about the subject or sector would be contributing sooner. So am glad you added something.

Cheers ! Canuckle (talk) 00:27, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Use of talk pages

I removed a question you posed on Talk:Homelessness in Vancouver because talk pages exist to discuss the article, not the subject. Perhaps you can ask your question at one of the reference desks instead. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 03:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@World's Lamest Critic: You have blanked Talk:Bill 28 (British Columbia) several times and refused to participate in the thread that I started there: Talk:Bill_28_(British_Columbia)#Repeated blanking of this talk-page. I believe you are deliberately being disruptive and ask you to please stop. My talkpage should not be used for these types of messages. Ottawahitech (talk) 17:36, 8 January 2017 (UTC)please ping me[reply]

As I've explained here twice already, I moved your notes to a subpage. I attempted to discuss this situation with you here, but you did not respond. Please leave the talk page for discussion of the article itself. World's Lamest Critic (talk) 23:02, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal to speedily rename category

Disruptive editing warning

Please stop with disruptive edits such as this: [[1]]. Faking ignorance that you don't know where it goes and asking other editors to clean up after you is unacceptable. 2605:8D80:687:8040:E50B:A21E:AF0D:66AB (talk) 17:39, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits/my revert

Listen there isn't a campaign to silence you here. The problem is low quality edits. If you look at your last homeless edit, it is of poor quality and is re-wording a news story. There isn't any meaningful information being added. If you are having such problems with reverts and apparently having your stuff deleted maybe it is time to re-evaluate and review the WP:GNG? SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 10:45, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Again please engage in a discussion on this. Stop shopping for someone else's opinion and provide some justification on your own please. You don't appear to be interested in collaboration, perhaps this isn't the place for you. SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 19:50, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding "Economy of ..." categories to homelessness articles

You participated in the discussion at Talk:Homelessness in Vancouver about adding the category "economy of Vancouver". There was consensus not to keep that category. I think it is reasonable to assume that the same applies to every other article on homelessness. When working collaboratively, it is important to accept that others may not agree with you and to go along with the consensus. Thanks.

Hey bud - nice job tagging all those airports for WikiProject Canada! Cheers, PK T(alk) 22:33, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

January 2017

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Talk:Bill_28_(British_Columbia).

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. You appear to be engaged in an edit war. Please discuss instead of reverting. SuperMarioWikiEditor (talk) 00:28, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. A page you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it will be removed shortly (if it hasn't been already). Please use the sandbox for any tests, and consider using the Article Wizard. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Your first article. You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. You are now creating pages, redirecting them to other pages and linking your newly created page. This is completely ridiculous and it is obvious you are not adhering to WP:NPOV.

This is about warring at Talk:Bill 28 (British Columbia). Per this comment, I'm letting you know that you and the other party can both be blocked under the edit warring policy. I urge you to reply at the noticeboard and agree to stop reverting the set of notes until a consensus is reached on where to locate this material. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 18:41, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The complaint has been closed with warnings to both you and World's Lamest Critic. You are risking a block if you add or remove the disputed talk page material again until consensus about it is reached. One option to consider is to put it in a collapse box. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 02:27, 26 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Ruth Ibanez

A tag has been placed on Ruth Ibanez 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 credibly 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 "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.

ANI notification

It doesn't look like anyone alerted you about this yet:

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.

I'm just the messenger. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:28, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

February 2017

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for an apparent long-term unwillingness or inability to follow Wikipedia's basic content policies. A user with your experience should not still be creating pages that qualify for speedy deletion, and there is no reasonable way you are not aware at this point of what the minimum standards for articles are, yet you routinely ignore them, and seemingly deliberately flaunt them. Doing this a few times as a new editor is one thing, doing it for nine and a half years is something else. Users with this much experience are usually the ones helping others make articles better not creating more work for those who maintain this project. The core issue here is the creation of new pages, and given how long this has been a problem I can't see a reasonable path to unblocking that doesn't involve some sort of restriction on you doing so in the future. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Beeblebrox (talk) 17:38, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've also taken the liberty of archiving 2015/2016, just for ease of readability of this page during any upcoming discussion of this block. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:45, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Ottawahitech, I highly appreciated the (mutual) 'categorization-motivation' in 2016/17, and truly hope that the unexpected Wikipedia-block (at least for me personally) will not last indefinitely. My best wishes and greetings,

Hmmm. I guess it does make it less clear. I will withdraw this one. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:37, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My yearly check in to retain admin flag, and was coming to say hi.

Thanks for notifying me of this discussion user:Bearcat. I hope you also notify the creator of Category:Lebanese businesswomen whose category you co-nominated in the same discussion. I know the editor already commented in the cfd, but in the interest of getting more editors involved in this discussion it would not hurt to follow established wiki-tradition.

Since I have been blocked from editing wikipedia I’ll try and clarify the difference between Category:Businesswomen and Category:Women in business here where I am still allowed to edit. I would appreciate it if someone such as User:BrownHairedGirl, User:Justforthefun17, or User:WikiVirusC who have already commented in the cfd would post a link from there to here.

Category:Businesswomen is a collection of biographies of women who are/were in business, while Category:Women in business is a more general category that also contains articles that are not biographies, such as Gender representation on corporate boards of directors, Women's Business Ownership Act, Women in cooperatives, Women's Technology Cluster, Women in cooperatives, Zonta International, Women of Krusha e Madhe, Women in business and more.

Readers who are looking for a biography of a businesswoman would be better served by a category exclusively dedicated to house such articles, while readers who are looking for general information about the the subject of women in business would find this information in Category:Women in business and not vice versa.

Category:Businesswomen is a legitimate child of Category:Businesspeople and Category:Women by occupation while Category:Women in business should not be a not a child of those categories. If the categories are merged will the merged category be forced to inherit this parentage? If so it will mean that Gender representation on corporate boards of directors (for example) will turn up when a reader follows the links from Category:Businesspeople which currently contains only biographies of businesspeople. If this parentage is omitted then what is the purpose of categorization?

In short I cannot see how merging these two categories is in the interest of those trying to find information about these two distinct topics. Ottawahitech (talk) 04:26, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User:Greenwoodtree, you nominated for deletion Category: Women criminals (which you have emptied) saying it was a duplicate of Category: Female criminals (to which you have added articles and categories emptied from the one you have proposed for deletion). Here is why those categories are not duplicates:

Category: Women criminals explains its inclusion criteria by using Template:Catmain saying that only articles about Women who are criminals should be added to this cat (category), while Category: Female criminals does not specify any inclusion criteria, leaving the impression that criminals who are transwomen (XY chromosomes) should not be added to a cat of Females,but transmen (XX chromosomes) should be(?).
The parent cats (categories) of Category: Women criminals are Category:Criminals, Category:Women by behavior and Category:Women associated with crime, which is what one would expect. On the other hand the parent cats of Category: Female criminals are Category:Women in society, Category:Women by behavior (added by you), and Category:Criminals by sex. There is no parent cat with the word Female in it, which is what one would expect. Why not replace Category:Women in society, and Category:Women by behavior with Category:Female mammals as a parent cat (rhetorical question), and shouldn’t Category:Criminals by sex be instead Category:Criminals by gender? To be continues shortly... Ottawahitech (talk) 23:26, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
