Oak Island Light

Re your recent overall edit of the subject page, I, like you, have concerns about the text/graphic formatting. I was not happy with my last editing of the page but my solution is a long run one, i.e., replace/reformat/resize/relocate the imagery on the page rather than eliminate it. So I think your removal of some images was premature. It may have to be done but I am trying to get more appropriate photos with permission which is not easy. So much for this concern.

Re the text edit of the subject page, I was appalled to say the least. Here are two selections that do not meet my standards: 1. Being completed in 1958, the Oak Island Light is one of the newest lighthouses in the United States. When completed the Oak Island Light replaced the Cape Fear Lighthouse, a steel skeleton structure on Bald Head Island, which was demolished later in 1958. My view is this is awkward, repetitive (completed-we all know that it was indeed finished)) and poorly phrased. 2. The main structure is anchored by 24 pilings 67’ deep (10" round and filled with concrete), the overall structure is 153’ tall with 148’ of that above grade. My view on this is not only missing necessary punctuation, it is also repetitive (structure).

And finally, your interpretation of editing needs re references differs from mine. For example, the section on visitation: A minimum of two weeks advance notice is normally required to obtain a tour reservation, which can be obtained on-line by visiting the Oak Island Lighthouse web site. took out the direct reference to the referenced web site. Its inclusion in the existing version was at the direct request of the FOIL Board which did not want any confusion as to where to go. In my next edit I will reference it rather than directly cite it but it will ensure that the reader gets to the so-called Official OI Lighthouse site.

While I am somewhat of a rookie in this world, I am a veteran writer and more importantly, try hard. Thus I would be happy to correspond with you directly on this matter (frankbausch@ec.rr.com), or it you prefer, I do have a user page, Regards. Frank Bausch.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Paul Bird (artist), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Paul Bird. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Paul Nash

Hi 14GTR. Thanks for tidying up with your recent edit. Re this bit: "In 1935 Nash began an affair with the Surrealist Artist, Eileen Agar", did you mean to delete that? I see it was supported only by a YouTube video. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:13, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Nash's relationship with Agar is already covered elsewhere in the article with references. When I clicked on the YouTube ref' I got a 'dead-link' message but that may be because I'm using a company works' laptop.14GTR (talk) 11:39, 1 November 2017 (UTC)
Ok, thanks. In fact I get a 4:32 long video called “Paul Nash – Totes Meer | TateShots” posted by https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2isDei-lrNSrgGYE4Np3PA with this summary: “Published on 31 Jul 2008. The hidden emotion behind a masterpiece of war. Paul Nash served as an official artist in the Second World War. His painting Totes Meer, German for 'dead sea', was inspired by a graveyard for wrecked aircraft at Cowley in Oxfordshire”. Agar gets a mention from about 3:28.

William Roberts (painter)

I see that you've removed the links I embedded to images of works by Roberts mentioned in the text, citing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Avoid_embedded_links – an article that refers to embedded citations. I acknowledge the possibility of linkrot, but for an article on a visual artist whose works are still in copyright how else do you suggest that a reader can be helpfully directed to an image of a work being discussed? Radavenport (talk) 07:47, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

By the correct use of properly formatted references, as on most artist articles.14GTR (talk) 07:52, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
But 'properly formatted references' are not immune to linkrot either, and don't make the existence of an image so obvious. Imagine, if you will, an old-fashioned art monograph with text and plates in separate sections. Isn't it more helpful to a reader to say '(see Plate … )' directly after a mention of a work in the text, rather than in an endnote? I see that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links#What_can_normally_be_linked says, 'An article about a book, a musical score, or some other media should link to a site hosting a legally distributed copy of the work, so long as none of the § Restrictions on linking and § Links normally to be avoided criteria apply.' Isn't that essentially the situation here (where those restrictions do not apply)? Granted, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links says early on that links 'should not normally be placed in the body of an article', but 'normally' surely implies that exceptions can be made, and I'd argue that reader-friendliness is a justification for them. Radavenport (talk) 08:44, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
No, properly formatted references tell the reader exactly where to find information or an image, and those parts of a reference would not suffer link-rot. The policy is 'avoid embedded links' and links 'should not normally be placed in the body of an article'. What you are doing is not 'reader-friendly' as you claim, it is just making a mess of the article.14GTR (talk) 08:56, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi, Sorry about the revert - Didn't realise Ethnicity wasn't a valid parameter, Gene93k's obviously reverted me but again sorry about that, Happy editing, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 00:47, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of Pakistani artists, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ghulam Hussain (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Teresa López

Hello 14GTR, read the following requirement of inclusion before you add the name of Teresa López:

Read carefully before adding a name to this list! This list should contain the names of persons who meet the pre-established Notability criteria, even if the person does not have an article yet. Additions to the list must be listed in the section which best describes the field for which the person is most notable and in alphabetical order by surname.

Each addition to the list must also provide a reliable verifiable source which cites the person's notability and/or the person's link to Puerto Rico, otherwise the name will be removed.

Note:

Websites such as Wikipedia, IMDb, You Tube, Facebook, MySpace and personal websites which anyone can edit are not considered reliable verifiable sources per Wikipedia policy, see: reliable sources.

These instructions are posted and noted before any addition can be made so that the user adding a name can see and read them. Feel free to add the name once more once you comply with the rules. Thank you. Tony the Marine (talk) 22:05, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

The references to Lopaz being Puerto Rician are in her article and that is the accepted practice for "list of" articles on Wekipedia. However as well as delating the perfectly valid entry for Lopaz, which I will restore, you also, without explanation, deleted the edit I made to remove the two large areas of empty white space in the article. Care to explain why or didn't you even bother looking before pressing undo ?. That the article looks a complete mess at the moment is entirely down to you.14GTR (talk) 05:48, 14 May 2018 (UTC)


  • It does not matter if the source is in the subject's article. The person who reads the list does not know this, therefore please follow the simple instructions which apply to all and the person's name will not be removed. Tony the Marine (talk) 13:46, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

I have checked with the I.T staff on this site and the IP address for this location is 192.168.47.108 which is part of a VPN network with no connection to 46.235.152.25.14GTR (talk) 11:26, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Your IT staff is misleading you. 192.168.47.108 is not your Internet address but instead, your private network address. 46.235.152.25, which is what you said was your Internet address, belongs to Symantec which implies you are using their antivirus/antimalware offering. However, you also say you are using a VPN. If that's the case, you'll need to disable that to edit here. But I expect the actual problem is your use of Symantec's software here, given your earlier statement. --Yamla (talk) 11:32, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
The Symantec software is installed on my company laptop and I will ask about having it removed when I return to work on Monday morning. At the moment I appear to be able to edit from my home laptop.14GTR (talk) 11:27, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

I've noticed that you have changed cite-web to citation and removed the access date on several occasions, most recently [1] and [2] May I ask why you are doing this? --Vexations (talk) 13:24, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

If you use cite web and / or quote an access date but don't include an url address in the reference then it shows as a red error message in the list of references. If I can find the url address to match the reference then I add that but if not switching to citation and removing the access date clears the error message.14GTR (talk) 14:26, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

WikiProject X Newsletter • Issue 13

Newsletter • December 2018

This month: A general update.

The current status of the project is as follows:

  • Progress of the project has been generally delayed since September due to development issues (more bitrot than expected, some of the code just being genuinely confusing, etc) and personal injury (I suffered a concussion in October and was out of commission for almost two months as a result).
  • I currently expect to be putting out a proper call for CollaborationKit pilots in January/February, with estimated deployment in February/March if things don't go horribly wrong (they will, though, don't worry). As a part of that, I will properly update the page and send out announcement and reach out to all projects already signed up as pilots for WikiProject X in general, at which point those (still) interested can volunteer specifically to test the CollaborationKit extension.
    • Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Pilots was originally created for the first WikiProject X prototype, and given this is where the project has since gone, it's only logical to continue to use it. While I haven't yet updated the page to properly reflect this:
    • If you want to add your project to this page now, feel free. Just bear in mind that more information what to actually expect will be added later/included in the announcement, because by then I will have a much better idea myself.
  • Until then, you can find me in my corner working on making the CollaborationKit code do what we want and not just what we told it, per the workboard.

Until next time,

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Eileen Agar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tudor Hall (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Question on Ursula McCannell article

Hello! Thank you for the improvements to Ursula McCannell article! I wanted to ask you several questions to understand the necessary processes as I'm quite new and don't know how to do things properly. Maybe you could give me links so I could catch up on that. 1. How do you find the categories, is there some tool or you just run though a list and choose. 2. How do you connect an article to Wikidata? Thank you in advance! --Less Unless (talk) 14:50, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Hello, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for creating the Ursula McCannell article.
  • Regarding Categories, there is usually a Category for every aspect of a persons life, including dates of birth and death, the century when they were active, for the schools, colleges or universities they attended, (Alumni of... or Educated at.. for schools), and for any special skill they had. It's entirely up to you how many you add. There is an essay here that might help.
  • New articles on English Wikipedia are normally linkd automatically to Wikidata by a bot very shortly after the article is created. The bot dosn't seem to be working today so I made the link manually but usually that's not needed.

I hope that helps and please feel free to ask if you need any help. 14GTR (talk) 16:51, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Irene Browne

Dear Wikipedia Editing User

With reference to your recent Wikipedia entry about my great aunt Irene Browne, I have various photos of her at work in her studio and of her sculptures, if this is of any use. I am told that these could be uploaded to her Wikipedia page.

I also have a photo of her in 1975 aged 93. As you have stated she died in 1977, aged 95. I wondered how you had gathered all this information as until very recently there was very little on line about Irene Browne. As women artists are continually written out of history, I was about to start to try and create a Wikipedia page about Irene Browne today, only to discover you had already done it. So that is appreciated.

With best wishes

Anna Liebschner (talk) 15:07, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Anna, Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your kind words. You are right to say that there is very little on line about Irene Mary Browne, which is not an uncommon situation for British women artists. However thanks to academics such as Sara Gray, Francis Spalding, Gill Clarke and others plus the work of the Antique Collectors Society there is a growing amount of written material available on British women artists in general. I usually research the articles I write in whichever library is nearest to where I'm working at the time. Anything I can find on-line about a subject is really only a bonus to the written sources. By all means upload a photo of your great aunt to the article. With best wishes 14GTR (talk) 17:04, 9 February 2020 (UTC)

An apology

14GTR, I owe you a personal apology. I should absolutely have listened to you about the categories, and I made a very bad error in judgement in not taking them to categories for deletion. I have stated as such on AN/I, and made a public apology to you on this forum. However, I felt that I needed to also send a message to your talk page in an attempt to acknowledge that my actions were wrong and to apologise to you for not paying attention to what you were saying.

I would also like to apologise for any abruptness, rudeness or anything else that may have caused you any consternation. This is on me and I am prepared to take whatever sanctions are given to me. But regardless of what happens, I want you to know that I am genuinely sorry for how I treated you in this matter. - Chris.sherlock (talk) 14:41, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you; I hope you find a way to contribute to Wikipedia that you find enjoyable and is constructive to the project.14GTR (talk) 15:03, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

List of Puerto Ricans

Your addition to the list has been removed because you did not follow the simple rules of inclusion. You may add the name once more with the required sources. The rules read as follows:

Read carefully before adding a name to this list!

This list should contain the names of persons who meet the pre-established Notability criteria, even if the person does not have an article yet. Additions to the list must be listed in the section which best describes the field for which the person is most notable and in alphabetical order by surname.

As of 2008, each addition to the list must also provide a reliable verifiable source which cites the person's notability and/or the person's link to Puerto Rico, otherwise the name will be removed.

Note:

Websites such as Wikipedia, IMDb, You Tube, Facebook, MySpace and personal websites which anyone can edit are not considered reliable verifiable sources per Wikipedia policy, see: reliable sources.

Take care, Tony the Marine (talk) 01:19, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Thea Proctor

Just FYI, I'm running training and support for a group of new editors in the Wikipedia:Know my name (an Australian project to add female artists) last week. So if you are watching Australian female artists articles (as you appear to be), can you just be alert to the presence of newbies in training and be helpful with some gentle education if you notice them doing the wrong thing. Or write something encouraging on their user pages. Thanks Kerry (talk) 21:14, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
