Name

[edit]

I created the article under the current name used on German Wikipedia, but there is a discussion on the talk page there about whether it should be moved (back) to Toni Dreher-Adenuga. I'm not opposed to moving this page if a consensus in that direction is reached on the German version. Bizarre BizarreTalk modern to me 20:43, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Analog the conclusion in the german wikipedia, I moved the article to Toni Dreher-Adenuga. --Tkkrd (talk) 07:35, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Date format

[edit]

I'm confused why the date format was changed without discussion. I created the article with dmy dates for every date, even using the df=yes parametre for the infobox, I simply accidentally used mdy for one date due to tiredness. According to WP:RETAIN, the format chosen by the "first major contributor" (this would be me as the article creator) should be kept, and I thought it was clearly dmy. Moreover, I was taught by German editors to use dmy dates for German topics, and Toni is German. Considering you're the one who decided to make the switch to mdy, RetroCraft314, would you mind explaining to me why this was done? Not trying to be rude or question the validity of your edits, I'm just utterly confused. Bizarre BizarreTalk modern to me 02:26, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Bizarre Bizarre: I noticed you used dmy dates in the article proper (i.e. the lead and body), and mdy dates in the infobox and refs. I figured that you wanted to use dmy as it was the format used in the body. I'm not particularly familiar with foreign language date formats, so I apologize for not doing my due diligence. Please feel free to change the dates back. My bad. <RetroCraft314 talk/> 02:35, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, thanks for clearing that up so quickly! I made the change back and redirected to this discussion in my edit summary. Bizarre BizarreTalk modern to me 02:46, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
