Recent changes

Changes later this week

  • The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 5 December. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 6 December. It will be on all wikis from 7 December (calendar).
  • Very old versions of the Opera Web browser are no longer supported. This means that technical development will not be tested to make sure it works with those Opera versions. Use Opera 15 or above or another browser if you have problems. [4]
  • Almost 170 wikis with no high-priority errors in Linter categories will switch to use the Remex parsing library. This is to replace Tidy. A few larger wikis such as German and Italian Wikipedia will also make this switch. It will happen on 5 December. Other wikis will be recommended to switch soon when they have fixed the errors that must be fixed. Tidy will be removed in the middle of 2018. [5][6]

Meetings

  • You can join the next meeting with the Editing team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 5 December at 19:30 (UTC). See how to join.
  • You can join the technical advice meeting on IRC. During the meeting, volunteer developers can ask for advice. The meeting will be on 6 December at 16:00 (UTC). See how to join.

WP:UND#John Yates (Culadasa)

Can you undelete this article and move it to the draft namespace? — Charles Stewart (talk) 11:55, 6 December 2017 (UTC) edited[reply]

Done. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:11, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:38, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Glenn Tamplin

Umm, why did you delete him? It makes no sense to delete an article where the consensus was split down the middle. I didn't understand your argument either, the keep side had more details for keeping the article over the delete side. Govvy (talk) 20:06, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, consensus is not a matter of head count but also of strength of argument. In this case the several people who addressed the sources in some detail and called them insufficient win out over the several people which didn't address these points. In addition, as per WP:DAILYMAIL using the Daily Mail for sourcing is questionable, never mind notability. Finally, arguments that the Billericay FC is notable are an argument for making an article on the group. I personally have never really liked the "but it's routine coverage so it doesn't count towards notability" since I am a true believer of the WP:WHYN arguments but my views do not reflect policy or practice here. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:51, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I removed the Daily Mail citations and replaced with BBC News and Sky Sports to fix the WP:DAILYMAIL. The only routine citations were the ones related to the transfers. The main citations were video interviews from some of the biggest news agencies in the UK. In fact I avoided using the tabloid agencies as citations in the article, but the main bulk of google searches come up tabloid, I truly think a few of the delete votes were lazy votes and they didn't review all the information at hand. Govvy (talk) 12:28, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Could be. I don't have a particularly good grasp on the reliability of the sources in the article, but it seems like many of them were passing mentions or more focused on the group than on Mr. Tamplin. Others weren't. Are there additional sources? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:58, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't do much research for his business, I went down the football route, because major news services where interviewing him over his purchase of the football club, they were interviewing him, saying he isn't notable defied logic to me, why would each major news service be interviewing a guy if he wasn't notable or news worthy?? How many people can afford to buy multiple Ferrari's, that was tabloid enough for the tabloids! It's the eccentricity which is highlighted and that is what makes the article.

Template:Did you know nominations/Riverton Lock

Jo-Jo Eumerus, I was wondering whether you would be willing to return to this nomination and continue your review. As I have been accused of newbie biting, I think it's best I stay away going forward. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:56, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio?

Hi - I have a question. I received a notification that a student of mine had posted some copyvio to an article. I'm not entirely sure if the sites' licenses are compatible with Wikipedia, so I wanted to double check before I do anything. The article is Disability in Australia and the places that the content was taken from are The Conversation and the Australian government. It looks like the Conversation source would be considered a copyright violation since we're not able to change anything from the source material, but I'm not sure if the [http://www.beta.abs.gov.au/websitedbs/D3310114.nsf/Home/%A9+Copyright?opendocument Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 Australia licence is compatible or not. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:23, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. First off, reinserting a copyright violation is something you absolutely must not do. Based on this the theconversation content isn't OK to host here but the Government stuff is. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:09, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Localizing_the_SDGs&action=edit&redlink=1

Dear Jo-Jo Eumerus,

Following the instructions of this message: "A page with this title has previously been moved or deleted. If you are creating a new page with different content, please continue. If you are recreating a page similar to the previously deleted page, or are unsure, please first contact the user(s) who performed the action(s) listed below."

I have created the page that was deleted, and even if I have carefully revised what was being said in the discussion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Localizing_the_SDGs ) and added many modifications, my page was still deleted. Therefore, I am contacting you to understand why my page was not considered suitable to be part of Wikipedia. The main argument of the discussion said that the page was an essay, so I have removed all the elements that made it look like it and made sure all that all the content there was refered.

I apologize in advance for my inexperience on writing Wikipedia pages. Nevertheless, I really put a lot of effort to develop the content and as I am intending to add it again, I would like to first have your advise on how I can better do it.

Thank you very much for your advice on how to best proceed.

Kind regards, Anna.
