ArbCom 2019 election voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2019 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 on Monday, 2 December 2019. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2019 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:12, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at WTJZ. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Please see the FCC database, which is what we go by, as the reliable source we go by. Your own input, which is original research is not necessary nor needed, per WP:OR. Stop now or be blocked. NeutralhomerTalk • 04:12 on December 6, 2019 (UTC) 04:12, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

  • It is your mindless insertion of zeroes past the decimal point that is laughable. My edits are constructive; yours are tendentious. Nobody else would ever support your nonsense. Abductive (reasoning) 04:20, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
    • Mine follow the rules laid out by Wikipedia, yours do not. So, who's are laughable? Plus, you are actually arguing this point, which makes it even more laughable and yes, mindless. So, please continue. - NeutralhomerTalk • 04:26 on December 6, 2019 (UTC)

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at WTJZ, you may be blocked from editing. NeutralhomerTalk • 16:55 on December 17, 2019 (UTC) 16:55, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

  • You know full well that removing zeroes behind a decimal point is not vandalism. Abductive (reasoning) 19:34, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
    • You know full well you have made up that reasoning to justify what you are doing. We go by the FCC documents (extra decimal points, zeros, and all), which is a highly reliable source, and not your original research for whatever the reason. When you understand I am operating within the rules and you are not, we'll get along just fine. - NeutralhomerTalk • 03:24 on December 18, 2019 (UTC)
My reasoning is sound. You want Wikipedia to parrot a primary source that reports an extra couple of zeroes. You are unique in this regard. Please reread WP:Ownership of content. Abductive (reasoning) 03:42, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
To you your reasoning might be sound, but according to the rules of Wikipedia, your reasoning doesn't matter. You follow the rules or you get warned then blocked. It's as simple as that. You clearly aren't understanding that your reasoning doesn't fit into this equation. It's the Wikipedia way or the highway. Pure and simple. - NeutralhomerTalk • 18:38 on December 18, 2019 (UTC)
Routine calculations (WP:CALC) aren't original research. Abductive (reasoning) 18:54, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
"...provided there is consensus among editors that the result of the calculation is obvious, correct, and a meaningful reflection of the sources." Don't cherry pick, if you are going to quote, quote the WHOLE thing. Your "reasoning" isn't a MEANINGFUL reflection of the sources and the Federal Communications Commission is the most reliable of sources. Your "reasoning" and your "calculations" aren't going to trump theirs by a longshot, nor will your anything be found to be better than a Federal Government source. Sorry, you aren't going to sway me here. Move on. - NeutralhomerTalk • 02:06 on December 19, 2019 (UTC)
You know you don't have consensus among editors at the Radio Wikiproject. Abductive (reasoning) 02:15, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
For the use of FCC documents? Wanna bet? - NeutralhomerTalk • 03:14 on December 19, 2019 (UTC)
You might want to read the archives, where you were in the minority about rounding FCC coordinates. Nobody but you on Wikipedia will ever think that just because the FCC primary source database reports coordinates with two extra zeroes on their ends that Wikipedians have to do so too. They'll say, "have you heard of rounding?" and, "did you know that WP:CALC is a WP:Policy?" Abductive (reasoning) 04:43, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

I just checked the archives on WPRS and there is no such discussion. So, do me a favor, spread your lies somewhere else. You officially bore me. Later. - NeutralhomerTalk • 04:52 on December 19, 2019 (UTC)

You are the one on my talk page. Abductive (reasoning) 04:58, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

Welcome to the 2020 WikiCup!

Happy New Year, Happy New Decade and Happy New WikiCup! The competition begins today and all article creators, expanders and improvers are welcome to take part. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page. We are relaxing the rule that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2020 will count; now to be eligible for points in the competition, you must have completed significant work on the content at some time! Any questions on the rules or on anything else connected to the Cup should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2. Good luck! The judges for the WikiCup are Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email), Godot13 (talk · contribs · email), Vanamonde93 (talk · contribs · email) and Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:43, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

Death of Kobe Bryant

I've reverted the edit, but do not intent further revert. I have received consensus through editing that the template belongs on 2020 Island Express Sikorsky S-76B crash article not this article which is focused on Kobe. I'll ask Mjroots (talk · contribs) for further input. Valoem talk contrib 00:45, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

You wrote I was being irrational, when I've given good reason why there should not be an infobox. I wrote a response on my page why an infobox should be held off until an article about the crash exists and exactly what I thought would happen, happened.

See sigfigs which explains about using excessive digits. Caltech is not a point, even though it is relatively small as schools go. I don't know about decimal vs. degrees, minutes, and seconds, but 15 arc seconds is about right. Caltech goes from about 34.136 to 34.140 latitude, and -118.127 to -118.124 longitude. If you want to point to a specific building, then maybe four decimal digits. Gah4 (talk) 08:53, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

GPS precision

over precision is a rather obtuse problem when you just click here and then copy the results to show what you have. I've seem seconds displayed with a .5 precision which is way over precise, whereas a simple |format=dms gives the same result without losing anything Dave Rave (talk) 23:58, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

  • Perhaps some of my improvements aren't much of a difference, but if you look through my contribs, you'll see that more often than not, the more precise coords miss the targets. Some miss by 100 km. Abductive (reasoning) 03:17, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

WikiCup 2020 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 57 contestants qualifying. We have abolished the groups this year, so to qualify for Round 3 you will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two contestants.

Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • New York (state) Epicgenius, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with a featured article, five good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 895 points.
  • England Gog the Mild came next with 464 points, from a featured article, two good articles and a number of reviews, the main theme being naval warfare.
  • United States Raymie was in third place with 419 points, garnered from one good article and an impressive 34 DYKs on radio and TV stations in the United States.
  • Somerset Harrias came next at 414, with a featured article and three good articles, an English civil war battle specialist.
  • Pirate flag CaptainEek was in fifth place with 405 points, mostly garnered from bringing Cactus wren to featured article status.
  • The top ten contestants at the end of Round 1 all scored over 200 points; they also included United States L293D, Venezuela Kingsif, Antarctica Enwebb, England Lee Vilenski and Nepal CAPTAIN MEDUSA. Seven of the top ten contestants in Round 1 are new to the WikiCup.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. In Round 1 there were four featured articles, one featured list and two featured pictures, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. Between them, contestants completed 127 good article reviews, nearly a hundred more than the 43 good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Contestants also claimed for 40 featured article / featured list reviews, and most even remembered to mention their WikiCup participation in their reviews (a requirement).

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup newsletter correction

There was an error in the WikiCup 2020 March newsletter; United States L293D should not have been included in the list of top ten scorers in Round 1 (they led the list last year), instead, United States Dunkleosteus77 should have been included, having garnered 334 points from five good articles on animals, living or extinct, and various reviews.

Center of the city

Hi can you please provide a source for "the city itself choose to make this intersection the center", and for "Google is deprecated as a source for coordinates"? ɱ (talk) 04:34, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

  • Yes, by calling one section of a street north, and one section south, and then by dividing a street which intersects that street at that point into east and west at that same intersection, a unique intersection is created. No other intersection in a city can have that property. This is usually taken as the center of a city. In Japan, the City Hall is usually used due to the weirdness of the Japanese addressing system. As for Google, take a look at some random city and town articles on Wikipedia. Notice how they almost always express their coordinates in D°M′S″? This is no accident; Wikipedia editors long before my time decided that D°M′S″ was the best. Then check Google Maps and note where they randomly plunk down the marker. Google Maps is a primary source, and any Wikipedia editor can WP:CHALLENGE a primary source. Abductive (reasoning) 04:48, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
These aren't direct, clear sources stating that Columbus considers its center there, or that Google has, by a community discussion's consensus, been "deprecated". I'm tired of arguing this little point further and will just drop it, no wonder your signature is "abductive reasoning". ɱ (talk) 14:50, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Italy shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Coordinates

Can you explain your claims that DMS is best and Five-digit decimal coordinates cannot resolve on Wikidata? DMS has no inherent advantages over decimal; arguably it's less intuitive. And I've never seen any indication that Wikidata has any issues with five-digit decimal coords. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 07:44, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

  • @Pi.1415926535:Wikidata defaults to DMS. It will attempt to turn decimal coordinates to DMS, DMS.s, DMS.ss, etc., and be unable to stop extending the digits. D.dd are the last decimal coordinates that always turn exactly into DMS without any remainders. Then any D.dddd that ends in D.dd00, D.dd25, D.dd50, and D.dd75, will also work out to "integral" DMS. Look through my edits and you'll see that I try to choose DMS that also happen to end as D.dd00/25/50/75.
  • So, it is inelegant to use D.ddd or D.ddddd. D.dddddd doesn't resolve, unless the last two digits are 00. Also, the five or six level of precision exceeds the ability of both GPS measuring devices, and the accuracy of Google Maps and Bing maps.
  • If you click on the random article link on the left column a bunch of times, you will note that most articles give the coordinates in DMS. I was trying to find a counterexample to show you but gave up after about 50 clicks--they were all DMS. Early on in my time editing Wikipedia I was informed that the use of DMS was the standard. For many years, people hewed to that standard. Abductive (reasoning) 22:07, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
    • Your coordinates should be based on the actual position of an object, not an attempt to avoid rounding. (I have reverted your wikidata change to 360 Newbury Street for that reason - your change moved the coordinates from centered on the building to off-center.) Five decimal places is a precision of about one meter - the same accuracy that Google claims for its imagery - which is desirable for smaller buildings and similar objects per the links you posted at my talk page. If you wish to see DMS coordinates on all articles, you can follow the instructions here. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 00:01, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

WikiCup 2020 May newsletter

The second round of the 2020 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 75 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top ten contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 186 good articles achieved in total by contestants, and the 355 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures.

Our top scorers in round 2 were:

  • New York (state) Epicgenius, with 2333 points from one featured article, forty-five good articles, fourteen DYKs and plenty of bonus points
  • England Gog the Mild, with 1784 points from three featured articles, eight good articles, a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews and lots of bonus points
  • Botswana The Rambling Man, with 1262 points from two featured articles, eight good articles and a hundred good article reviews
  • Somerset Harrias, with 1141 points from two featured articles, three featured lists, ten good articles, nine DYKs and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews
  • England Lee Vilenski with 869 points, Gondor Hog Farm with 801, Venezuela Kingsif with 719, Cascadia (independence movement) SounderBruce with 710, United States Dunkleosteus77 with 608 and Mexico MX with 515.

The rules for featured article reviews have been adjusted; reviews may cover three aspects of the article, content, images and sources, and contestants may receive points for each of these three types of review. Please also remember the requirement to mention the WikiCup when undertaking an FAR for which you intend to claim points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Late Bronze Age collapse

If that's still on your watchlist, you'll see that your edit at [2] was reverted, although somewhere along the line the numbered links to sources lost the sources themselves. Doug Weller talk 10:53, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

A repeat notice as it's over a year since you were last advised. Cabayi (talk) 21:54, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
