Need help to improve article?

PC78 I need help to improve the Kent Tate article. The article started out with a lot more content before it was submitted for AfC approval. During the process, much of the content and references were removed... I take responsibility for that happening as clearly at the time I was not effectively filtering out flowery language and the article suffered greatly because of that lack of understanding. Since then I have created several additional articles some AfC approved and some directly posted. Someone upgraded the article to C class somewhere along the way - which clearly you don't agree with. I would like to improve the article but need some help because of COI. Can you help me? LorriBrown (talk) 22:23, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Seeking your input

Hey, would you be able to comment at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 August 8#Melt with You (Carly Rae Jepsen song) with what you think? I'm interested to know what your thoughts are on redirects for bonus tracks on an album as I see you commenting at RfDs a lot. Thanks. Ss112 23:07, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Page mover granted

Hello, PC78. 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! TonyBallioni (talk) 00:17, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No include !

When you apply a speedy tag to a page which is transcluded you must bracket the tag with <noinclude></noinclude> . Your failure to do so in the case of template:User Punjabi cinema task force caused all these pages to appear spuriously in CAT:CSD. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:47, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@RHaworth: Ah, my bad. I didn't realise the page was being transcluded. Sorry! PC78 (talk) 09:51, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Korea

Your recent edits to Template:WikiProject Korea have landed it in Category:WikiProject banners with formatting errors. Rather than revert, I wanted to reach out and make sure you had a chance to take a look and see if there's an easy fix. Thanks! JPG-GR (talk) 12:15, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@JPG-GR: My best guess from the error code is that this is caused by removing the TF_n_NAME parameters from each task force, which I did because Template:WPBannerMeta/hooks/taskforces/doc suggests that they are not required and are redundant when TF_n_TEXT is used. I'll have a look in a bit. PC78 (talk) 12:22, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@JPG-GR: That did it but it looks like a false positive to me. I'll mention it at Template talk:WPBannerMeta. PC78 (talk) 13:24, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Empty categories

Hello, PC78,

I see that you created some new "tracking categories" that are presently empty: Category:DecadeCategoryNav where decade param = title decade, Category:DecadeCategoryNav where decade param ≠ title decade and Category:DecadeCategoryNav where topic param = title topic. I assume that these at some point they will be used? You might add {{emptycat}} to the categories to avoid them being deleted. Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 23:50, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: I think you've got me confused with BrownHairedGirl! PC78 (talk) 23:51, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that is embarrassing! I could have sworn I saw some new categories that you had created. My apologies for the mixup. Liz Read! Talk! 23:54, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No worries! PC78 (talk) 23:55, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Liz, they will be in use soon. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 23:59, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ooops! Sorry, I got confused them with another template. Those categs were in use for months, but Template:DecadeCategoryNav has been merged to Template:Navseasoncats. So the tracking categories have served their purpose, and I have deleted them. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:04, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, PC78, it was Category:Use of impn parameter in Category importance template. So, that's what I was thinking of. A mistake, but not as big as I thought. Liz Read! Talk! 00:05, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ah yes, it doesn't seem to be picking up anything and I don't suspect that it will. It's only meant to be temporary, give it a weeks or so and I'll get rid of it. PC78 (talk) 00:08, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:BLP others

I am laughing at that TfD discussion. I think if I didn't laugh I would have to start crying. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:43, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Funny how some folks are resistant to change. I did quite like the bit about the goat though. :) PC78 (talk) 10:48, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah sorry about that

Twinkle automagically adds the darn message. I declined a fourth category for the same reason, and you didn't get a notification. But basically, it's not personal. I might have left several as it is, as you might be wondering about those other categories too. It's meant as information, an update. KillerChihuahua 15:40, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@KillerChihuahua: No worries, though I think you were unduly cautious in declining them. I'm a little puzzled why you deleted the fourth category before restoring it? PC78 (talk) 16:01, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Because I misclicked. :-/ KillerChihuahua 16:04, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings!

After a successful first iteration of the “Months of African Cinema” last year, we are happy to announce that it will be happening again this year, starting from October 1!

The AfroCine Project welcomes you to October, the first out of the two months which have been dedicated to creating and improving content that centre around the cinema of Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora. Join us in this global edit-a-thon, by helping to create or expand articles which are connected to this scope. Also remember to list your name under the participants section.

On English Wikipedia, we would be recognizing participants in the following manner:
