Why delete Stockton rush edit?[edit]
He made a choice against all advice and safety regulations. His negligence resulted in the deaths of others. That is manslaughter at the very least.
It is a fact that he refused to meet certification guidelines, ignored several warning from experts and did not do the necessary stress tests against the hull. Any effort to research would have reinforced the concerns others presented.
Neutral admits to the good and bad. 2001:48F8:2D:FC5:B376:6B26:2D6E:8288 (talk) 17:24, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, I appreciate you reaching out to me. Wikipedia is not about determining guilt of someone involved in an incident, this would fall under violating WP:NPOV. If the relevant administrative bodies find Stockton guilty of manslaughter, then the edit would no longer be an opinion but something that can be referenced and included in his article. Any opinions not referenced by an outside reliable source may get Wikimedia into legal trouble, so it is best to stay neutral when possible.

My Supermansion edit.[edit]
Does a tweet count as a source? https://twitter.com/SuperMansiontv/status/1455202979204648963

- Hi @24.46.178.54, Freevee seems to be a service owned by Amazon that streams television shows for Amazon Prime users. So perhaps adding the line and citation will be redundant. 1TWO3Writer (talk) 07:04, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted[edit]
Hi 1TWO3Writer. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. – Joe (talk) 11:09, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Tagging pages for speedy deletion[edit]
Hello, 1TWO3Writer,
Please look at the page history of a page before you tag it for deletion. If an administrator or senior editor has already removed a similar CSD tag from the page, they probably had a good reason to do this and you should look for a different reason. Earlier today, a sockpuppet tagged some pages for speedy deletion, the tags were removed by an admin and then you replaced them. I believe you moved at least one to Draft space and that is a better solution than retagging them. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 19:39, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Workforce[edit]
I apologize if you feel my edit was not neutral. That is how I feel about the majority of what I read on Wikipedia. Let me give you one quick example of the lack of context, and subsequent mis and disinformation being propagated: I read that Trump is the only president to leave office with fewer people in the workforce than when he entered office, the first president to do so. I'm curious as to whether you realize why that is, and why that is highly misleading? This is one of hundreds of "neutral" examples I have seen on Wikipedia, a large portion being easily disproven. 2601:202:8180:2020:3098:8E7F:560B:6B00 (talk) 22:26, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Rollback granted[edit]
Hi 1TWO3Writer. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle or RedWarn.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback.

Antoine Hamilton[edit]
Dear 1TWO3Writer. Greetings, I see you are a precious resource as you can translate between English and Japanese. Not many of those.
I sincerely thank you for your corrections to the article Antoine Hamilton, to whom you came perhaps because of your interest in light literature. Most of your corrections are head-on and very appreciated. I sometimes mix up my English and my French, which are both 2nd language.
I wonder, however, whether it was a good idea to throw out the spaces before the invisible comments ( <!-- ). I think some Wikipedians recommend to do so, but I feel these spaces strongly enhance the readability of the code. MOS:COMMENT, which I think is pertinent here, prescribes "Check that your invisible comment does not change the formatting, for example by introducing unwanted white space in the rendered page", but the MOS does not forbid separating end-of-line comments from the code by a space as I habitually do. I have not seen any unwanted whitespace added by these spaces before comments. This is important to me because I use these comments in this way in the "list-defined references" citation style, which I recently adopted.
I very much would like to hear your point of view. With many thanks and best regards, Johannes Schade (talk) 10:43, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Johannes Schade Thanks for reaching out.
- This page says that whitespace should be avoided in-regards to comments as the space between the comment and wikitext is rendered. I added a comment to this message to illustrate this. However, feel free to revert those edits if you want, as it is ultimately inconsequential imo. Just know that AWB, the software I used on your page, automatically deletes "unnecessary" whitespace when used, so if you want to stop it from happening in the future, add a comment stating you want that space to be kept. Something like:
<!--PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE WHITESPACE BETWEEN COMMENT AND TEXT; READABILITY-->
- That way adjustments can be made when said program is used.
- Sorry for the trouble! 123Writer talk 12:57, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
- Dear 123Writer. Thank you for your prompt and careful reply. Thanks also for your in-text example. Do you in fact see an extra whitespace between the "rendered." and the "I added "? I do not. Perhaps this depends on the browser? I use Google Chrome.
- I looked up Help:Whitespace#Invisible comments. Indeed, this tells editors to avoid spaces before the <!-- in end-of-line comments. However, I think Help texts are meant to guide editors when writing and I believe they cannot be used to justify correcting somebody else's text additions. You would however have a good reason to remove the space if you saw an extra whitespace caused by the space that you deleted.
- As you certainly know, you are responsible for whatever you do with AWB, even if your edits are part of AWB's General Fixes. As WP:AWB/General fixes says, the General Fixes are intended to be unproblematic, but in fact there are special cases when some of them create havoc. I always untick "Apply general fixes" when running AWB.
- Another case is your correction from "[Nenagh Castle]]" to "[[Nenagh Castle]]"; "[Nenagh Castle]" was intended. This is inside a quotation and the "[Nenagh Castle]" should have been a gloss explaining the "it" used in the quote, not a wkilink. MOS:LINK prescribes "Be conservative when linking within quotations". I suspect this also was done by General Fixes. Shows how careful you have to be.
- Another frequent problem with General Fixes is that it "corrects" date formats inside quotations, but this did luckily not happen in the case discussed here.
- I am going to re-establish the spaces. With best regards and thanks, Johannes Schade (talk) 10:17, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

New pages patrol newsletter[edit]
Hello 1TWO3Writer,
Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews!
October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here.
PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon.
Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD.
Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
