How's Visual Editor working for you? Jaredzimmerman (WMF) (talk) 07:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
- @Jaredzimmerman (WMF): I'm sorry but it's just not my cup of tea. However, I have taken to Vector and I'm glad to have made that change because HotCat is working fine now and I like the larger search box. I don't care for the serif header, but I can live with it. --Rosiestep (talk) 03:15, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

- Thanks for trying it out, I'm sure that Kaity would love to hear your thought about it and why it didn't work for you. Jaredzimmerman (WMF) (talk) 03:54, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
- @KHammerstein (WMF): I have an example right now of what isn't working for me with VE. I've made my first edit to Ana Mercedes Perez not using VE. I'm trying to make a second edit, where I want to augment her occupations from 'poet and writer' to 'writer, poet, translator, journalist and diplomat' and add a reference. I've translated the words from a Spanish-language article and I want to paste in that translation. First attempt: I paste once, but the words repeat 4 times. Second attempt: the pasted words repeat after the reference. So I won't save any of this and I'll return to non-VE editing.

Support for Wikimedia grant
Hi Rosie! A colleague and I wrote a grant for Wikimedia to run edit-a-thons. I am trying to get some support for it from editors I have met. I know you are very involved in your local edit-a-thons.

I was going to review this article for DYK until I saw that it still needed a QPQ review. Meanwhile, I was disappointed to notice this lengthy passage added by you on 15th October at 15.23, which is identical to the source. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 15:59, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
@Cwmhiraeth: Thanks for considering reviewing the article. I'll do the QPQ today. Can you explain why the disappointment over a PD source from 1865 that has both an inline citation and appropriate source attribution in the reference section? The article is certainly long enough that the "lengthy passage" (2 sentences) do not need to be included in the 1500 minimum needed for the char count. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:04, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- OK. I'm pleased not to need to be disappointed any more. It had not occurred to me that the source was out of copyright, but I wouldn't copy anything in that way myself without putting it in inverted commas. My knowledge of such topics is limited so I had better just shut up. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:12, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- I see from this page that what you did is completely acceptable and the fact that I criticised you demonstrates that I don't know my stuff. Thanks for the cup cake, by the way. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:00, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Hope everything went well. Any chance you could reword and source this, Vej tells me it was a copyvio on Czech wiki. I've reworded a bit already but could use some new sources and further rewording.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:15, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
Hello Rosie, thanks for your great work on improving of the Grosman's article. Could you please revdel this and this, please? Even though unintentional, it is a direct translation of a copyrighted text. Thank you. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 08:27, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
@Vejvančický: Hi there, and thanks for reaching out to me. Yes, Dr. Blofeld mentioned a few days ago that another editor translated copyrighted text into Ladislav Grosman. I don't see any notes on the articles talkpage about the copyvio issues; I'd recommend doing that asap. As I'm just back from a Wikibreak, I'm not in full swing yet, so I'll pass on working any further on the LG article at this time; sorry. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:35, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Cardamom production
Excellent start! BTW I miss Keibler cat already, I'm going to put her on my talk page instead!♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:05, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
Why is production in past tense? I began rewording but then realised the whole thing is in the 1908 source and I haven't got sources to support that this is still done today! Heck, if that practice was dated in 1908 today it would be ancient!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:45, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Those processes appeared to be archaic, ergo the past tense. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:36, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
I've cut out a lot of it Rosie as I think it's too dated and difficult to read for wikipedia. I think for an article like this it's best to rely on current up to date sources. Some of the info is still relevant though, but we need some contemporary sources backing production methods!♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:05, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
Wow, evil cat! Started Le Droit des Femmes which you or Aymatth2 might further add to, I've got to get on with Spokane now. Not sure that cover I uploaded it the paper as the title is slightly different, possible it is a rival journal.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:58, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
That enough? Can you add a bit to Lionel Hamilton, look at imdb filmography or something and mention some other appearances with book refs. That should do it. Kettering Savoy is enough I think but might need a reword in parts.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:38, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for that, Chiesa di San Giovenale (Orvieto) looks to be DYK worthy thanks to Ipigott.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:44, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Finola Moorhead
Hi. Hope you're well. I came across this article in DYK and it looked interesting enough that I did a little copyedit and some refwork on it. I hope for the better. The climax line I think is not quite right as according to the ref Hawthorne is the one who had the conversation with Moorhead and many others and not Stead. Stead just suggested the no male characters in a book bit. Hope I didn't misread that. Also the title of the works in the selected works has inconsistency in which words are capitalised. If it's actually how the novels are titled then fair enough but looked odd to me. Overall, thanks for expanding such an article! Cowlibob (talk) 20:26, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Cowlibob and thanks for improving the article. And if you think it needs further re-wording, go for it. I made the capitalization more consistent in the selected works section, though some of that now doesn't exactly line up with Worldcat's capitalization... still, I think it was the right thing to do. Best, --Rosiestep (talk) 05:56, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

I've got a question for you
Hi, Rosiestep, I'd like to ask your advice about something I once run into but can no longer pinpoint exactly. This is about the use of non-free files showing covers of copyrighted books, in the infoboxes of their authors. Recently I uploaded such image for the biography of Agnieszka Biedrzycka. It is the cover of her most important publication so far. It has been nominated for deletion today. I do remember reading that such use of non-free items in new bios of writers is allowable. I've seen it done before, but I'm unable to find anything relevant in our guidelines anymore. Do you have any advice or insight on how I can solve it? Thanks in advance, Poeticbent talk 19:35, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, Poeticbent. Good question. I think #9 here might help. If it doesn't, we can ask the question at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women writers. Let me know? --Rosiestep (talk) 23:27, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks, Rosiestep. The shortcut WP:NFC#UUI (per above) links to "Unacceptable use". The correct one is WP:NFCI for the "Acceptable" one. I looked at it already. The rule is too vague to be of much use for us. It speaks about the "Cover art from various items, for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item (not for identification without critical commentary)" (end of quote), but the real problem is the word "item" which I mentioned already at the Wikipedia:Files for deletion/2014 November 30#File:Agnieszka Biedrzycka - Kalendarium Lwowa (2012).jpg. The "item" in this case is a "book" itself, not the "book cover", because the cover is composed of simple lettering and an old griffin in GFDL. Poeticbent talk 00:05, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Apollo Hotel Amsterdam might interest you for DYK. A hook about the five canals might be good.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:40, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
Thank You
Hello Rosiestep, thank you for being the first to welcome me on Wikipedia and a friendly invitation to The Teahouse. I would like to ask for assistance from more experienced and friendly editors with editing the Jason Tom article as a I have almost no experience with Wikipedia editing and also with clean up and a possible rewrite proposal as it has been recommended by an editor. I am not sure who on Wikipedia to turn to as I am new to the Wikipedia community. Thank you Rosiestep. I would like to gradually work on editing other Wikipedia articles of interest as time progresses and when time permits. -Rogerdatway (talk) 01:30, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
Rosiestep, thank you for your great suggestions. I will look into each to help improve on and clean up the article to follow Wikipedia guidelines. I realized only after the fact that I made a mistake by blanking the talkpage and will be sure not to do that again by accident. I will learn from these mistakes and work on not repeating them in the future. Thank you for your friendly help and assistance Rosiestep. -Rogerdatway (talk) 03:02, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

![]() |
Thanks so much for all your hard work on the new Bimini Baths article, which I greatly enjoyed reading and reviewing for DYK. I wasn't trying to be overly critical during the review process, so hopefully you didn't perceive me as such. I have now gone back to the article and (to the best of my ability) addressed the final two issues I brought up at the DYK nomination, before I then uploaded and added a public domain image to the article as well. I don't know why it is taking so long to be confirmed and promoted, but everything in the article does look great to me now. Thanks again for such an interesting article! It reminds me a bit of The Land of Sunshine, one of my former DYK articles. Michael Barera (talk) 21:37, 8 December 2014 (UTC) |
- Yummy cookie; thanks Michael Barera! The best of articles, IMHO, are a team project, so thank you for improving the article and uploading the image. As for why it takes a while (sometimes) to confirm/promote articles, I'd say, "it just depends", and there's really no rush with this one so it's all good. Would love to collaborate with you on some future article. Ping me if you want another pair of hands on something... --Rosiestep (talk) 03:04, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the offer! I'll definitely keep you in mind as I work on future articles. And thanks again for creating the Bimini Baths article. Take care! Michael Barera (talk) 03:07, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
BNA access
Hi. You requested access to a British Newspaper Archive account via The Wikipedia Library a long time ago. I took over responsibilities as the account coordinator and I approved you for an account about a month ago. I still need you to follow the steps indicated on the e-mail I sent you, including submitting your information on the Google doc that e-mail indicates. If I don't have that information by 15 December, I'm going to archive your application with no further action.
If there's been any confusion or crossed-wires about this process, I apologize. I understand your request waited for some time before I e-mailed you. I'm eager to catch-up with the backlog of requests and other editors are waiting for accounts. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:15, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Huffington Post article
Congratulations, how nice! I was a big Margaret Mead fan myself and wanted to study anthropology too! My dad felt it was a waste of time and made me study math or he wouldn't support my education at all. Thanks to a career in computers I have been able to tour the world anyway, so maybe he was right.

- Cullen328, thank you! Just saw the Slate article, and yup, it's a very different story. Can't help but wonder, WWHSS (what would Hari Seldon say)? Note to myself: need to get a bracelet with that acronym. --Rosiestep (talk) 03:54, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
- I call Isaac Asimov the one man Book of the Month Club. You are similarly prolific. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:12, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
- Great article! I'm forwarding it to someone at my local university, whom I'm trying to organize a regular local editathon with.
- But also, I'm replying up here because, once when I visited the WMF office in SF (wherein I met Cullen328!), I brought this sign with me (it matches the newer version of their usual signs) plus 3 copies of Foundation. They ended up using the other sign I took for that room, which said "Ford Prefect", so I stuck the first one in the stationary cupboard for secret meetings ;-) Both were labeled R42, because the short story "The Encyclopedists" was published in 1942, and it works for Ford Prefect for obvious reasons. I like the sound of that bracelet! Best wishes, Quiddity (talk) 04:32, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- So cool, Quiddity, to meet another HS fan! Glad someone else "gets it", you know? I think I'll have to make the bracelet, but it shouldn't be too hard. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:45, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for sorting out the sourcing. I don't know if you can try some searches in google books or web PDFs and find some further scraps, I think it can scrape GA. You might also be interested in adding to Kajaani Church and nomming.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:31, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Tomorrow yeah. Doubt you'll find anything more on Salta. Can you find anything on East Carson Avenue, Vegas? I was going to start it now, runs parallel to Fremont.♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:17, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
Oddly doesn't seem to be notable, you'd expect it being central and running next to Fremont it would be more notable!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:24, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
I've given Thurso a big chop. It was really needed I think as it was festering, not sure it you want to try to salvage some of what was deleted with improved sourcing. It's certainly worth working on and has an interesting history. Something might be salvaged from here and kept nice and clean with good sourcing. I may look into it tomorrow too. Perhaps Sagaciousphil would be interested?♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:54, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
I've found what I could on the castle, not that much solid detail about it, is that OK? I've cleaned up Thurso now, it won't be reverted from now on. Perhaps you might like to add a section in it on landmarks and add a summary of the church and castle there? I've added a bit on the church but you might add some of the info in the castle article to the history and landmarks section. I may consider taking it to GA eventually, would be good to have one from that area.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:50, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
Churches in Highland seem to be poorly covered. I bet there's some fascinating little old quaint churches up there. A List of churches in Highland (council area) might be a good place to start.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:22, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
There's a good introductory source for historic churches in Highland here. Some look really interesting.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:43, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
A huge number of churches in the commons!! Just a dozen or so is enough to working on it like those in the Britainexpress source. I might try to attract one of the editors who works on Scottish architecture or Peter/Bencherlite and suggest that somebody work on detailed table articles by county of Highland or something. Still, a very basic rough main list is at least a start.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:51, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
Template:Lists of churches in Scotland... Rather ambitious but a very basic list for each for starters is a start. Eventually it would be nice to have detailed lists by county with pretty pictures and sourced info in tables, I'm sure eventually we'll have that but I'm not doing it!! A good place to start would at least be to create lists with all the entries in the council area categories and simply add a photo or two. Hopefully then at some point somebdy will come along and develop them like the listed buildings or Peter Vardy's detailed lists in Cheshire.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:24, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
It's best I think to work on a bite-sized area and try to ignore how much is missing!! Template:Churches in Caithness should be OK for now. Browsing in the commons will turn up loads. Some may have more for them than others though. Surprising how much is actually missing. I'll probably create a few more church lists by council area over the Christmas period. For now best to concentrate on that north coast Caithness area! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:55, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
LOL. The Hunger Games sadly didn't cut the mustard for my film list.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:17, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
That may be, but I think Jennifer Lawrence is a good actress. --Rosiestep (talk) 20:32, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
Oh she is, but just don't rate The Hunger Games! Yes for some reason when the weather's cold here and it's nice and cosy I like to work on "cold" areas of the world whether its Scotland or ski resorts or whatever. Cortina I had been hoping to work on over Christmas.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:24, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Can you access the 1918 source in the US? I can only find a snippet of the quote. Can you add a bit more on recent history from here?♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:09, 30 December 2014 (UTC)
Probably best to word much of the interior as "at the time of opening in 1910" as I'd imagine the interior has since changed a lot in over 100 years!♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:19, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
