WikiCup 2015 is now in the books! Congrats to our finalists and winners, and to everyone who took part in this year's competition.
This year's results were an exact replica of last year's competition. For the second year in a row, the 2015 WikiCup champion is Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points). All of his points were earned for an impressive 253 featured pictures and their associated bonus points (5060 and 1695, respectively). His entries constituted scans of currency from all over the world and scans of medallions awarded to participants of the U.S. Space program.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) came in second place; she earned by far the most bonus points (4082), for 4 featured articles, 15 good articles, and 147 DYKs, mostly about in her field of expertise, natural science.
Cas Liber (submissions), a finalist every year since 2010, came in third, with 2379 points.
Our newcomer award, presented to the best-performing new competitor in the WikiCup, goes to Rationalobserver (submissions). Everyone should be very proud of the work they accomplished. We will announce our other award winners soon.
A full list of our award winners are:
Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points) wins the prize for first place and the FP prize for 330 featured pictures in the final round.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) wins the prize for second place and the DYK prize for 160 did you knows in the final round (310 in all rounds).
Cas Liber (submissions) wins the prize for third place and the FA prize for 26 featured articles in all rounds.
West Virginian (submissions) wins the prize for fourth place
Calvin999 (submissions) wins a final 8 prize.
Rationalobserver (submissions) wins a final 8 prize.
Harrias (submissions) wins a final 8 prize and the FL prize for 11 featured lists.
Rodw (submissions) wins the most prizes: a final 8 prize, the GA prize for 41 good articles, and the topic prize for a 13-article good topic and an 8-article featured topic, both in round 3.
ThaddeusB (submissions) wins the news prize for the most news articles in round 3.
We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate. The WikiCup judges will be back in touch over the coming months, and we hope to see you all in the 2016 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

Figureskatingfan, Miyagawa, Sturmvogel 66; why does West Virginian get a 4th place prize when you only highlighted 1st, 2nd and 3rd on the WikiCup table? While I get a final 8 prize for coming 5th? Just asking. — Calvin999 10:07, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
- That is simply the way it has always been. Back in my first cup when I placed fourth I got a picture of a trophy. Then when I was a finalist but not as high as fourth, I got a final 8 prize. Miyagawa (talk) 10:45, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
- Just seems a bit odd that the Cup table highlights the top three yet this newsletter highlights the top four. It should be kept to top three like in the table. West Virginian should have just received a top 8 like me. — Calvin999 10:51, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Calvin, I don't know if you like to review awards lists, but could you leave some comments on this one? It's been over 20 days! IndianBio and Frankie are also nominators. Thank you!!! GagaNutellatalk 15:01, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
Why did you revert my edits?
And I see that you used TW. Do you think I committed vandalism? szyslak (t) 01:31, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- Well, yes it did look like it. Adding original research with no reliable sources to back up what you are saying with an edit summary which didn't prove what you were adding. — Calvin999 01:33, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- My edits were in good faith. It's confirmed in multiple reliable sources that John Lennon wrote for himself and Paul McCartney wrote for both Wings and himself. I am deeply offended by your use of automation and your accusation of vandalism, and I demand a retraction. szyslak (t) 01:35, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- Why did you not add these citations or sources to what you added then. I don't really think this is a case of taking offence to be quite honest. — Calvin999 01:38, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- If you felt that that edit required a source or that it was otherwise unhelpful, that's fine. Still, please remember that it's very rude to use automation to revert edits that aren't clearly vandalism. Do you think my edit was vandalism? szyslak (t) 01:40, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- You have already posed that question to me and I have already answered it with my reason. — Calvin999 11:35, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- And you have still failed to retract your accusation. I also demand an apology for your use of automation. That was extremely rude and insulting. Don't ever do it again. szyslak (t) 23:07, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- I stand by what I said. Please don't demand something of me or tell me what to do, even though it is highly unlikely our paths will cross again anyway. It wasn't rude of insulting, I think your choice of words are misinformed. You're making a bigger issue out of it than what it is. There's no need to carry on this thread. — Calvin999 23:24, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
- Fine. If you really and truly believe my edit was vandalism or "looked like" it, or that my edit was otherwise harmful, there's only so much I can do to change your mind. Please try not to use automation against good-faith edits in the future. szyslak (t) 00:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Lol
Haha Looks like we did that crap at the same time. Cheers. You gonna attend the O2 show?--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 12:13, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
- Lol. I knew about it on Friday. Didn't expect dates so soon. Yeah I would like to go to 02. I can't believe I've waited since 2005 to see her and I flew to vegas this year to see her residency, now she comes to London! Will be good though because I want to hear some different songs too. — Calvin999 12:16, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
- I forgot you saw her in Vegas lol. So happy she's started trimming down lately.--PeterGriffin • Talk2Me 12:17, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
- I loved it, and she sang song she never, ever performs like "Someday", "Love Takes Times" and "Thank God I Found You". But I'm looking forward to this one because she will do album cuts. And yeah she is looking amazing. — Calvin999 12:29, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

DYK nomination of 25 (Adele album)
Hello! Your submission of 25 (Adele album) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! BlueMoonset (talk) 01:45, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
- Calvin999, I'd also like to suggest that if you want a hook about setting a sales record, you provide one as an ALT2. Otherwise, you'll be stuck with one of the more disappointing ones that were approved before I noted the other issues with the article as it currently stands.

WikiCup 2016 is just around the corner...
Hello everyone, and we would like to wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2016 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. There are some changes we'd like to announce before the competition begins.
After two years of serving as WikiCup judge, User:Miyagawa has stepped down as judge. He deserves great thanks and recognition for his dedication and hard work, and for providing necessary transition for a new group of judges in last year's Cup. Joining Christine (User:Figureskatingfan) and Jason (User:Sturmvogel 66) is Andrew (User:Godot13), a very successful WikiCup competitor and expert in Featured Pictures; he won the two previous competitions. This is a strong judging team, and we anticipate lots of enjoyment and good work coming from our 2016 competitors.
We would also like to announce one change in how this year's WikiCup will be run. In the spirit of sportsmanship, Godot13 and Cwmhiraeth have chosen to limit their participation. See here for the announcement and a complete explanation of why. They and the judges feel that it will make for a more exciting, enjoyable, and productive competition.
The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. The judges are committed to not repeating the confusion that occurred last year and to ensuring that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.
If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), Figureskatingfan (talk), and Godot13 (talk).--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

There are things that are sometimes left undone and there are things that can be left sometimes unsaid. There are things that can be sometimes left unsaid, but wishing someone like you can’t ever be left, so I take this moment to wish you and your loved ones a joyous and wonderful New Year.

Hi Calvin999, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 02:39, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you. — Calvin999 10:43, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

List of Madonna songs
Thank you for doing this. I had been developing in my sandbox, can you merge that too? —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:13, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- And I believe that the crap List of unreleased songs recorded by Madonna can be merged in this one]]. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:17, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah I saw the unreleased one and thought it was a mess. I'm doing Confessions at the moment, but if you want to add any other albums from your sandbox then feel free. I've formatted the table different to how you have though. I was actually going to ask you at some point to help me with the lead anyway. — Calvin999 10:20, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- Which formatting should we keep? I was referring to the recent song article FLs and that was the formatting I could find. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:25, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- I personally think how I do it is better. There's no point having a dedicated row just for a couple of featured artists. It makes it unnecessarily wide. I just put the featured artist in small font under the song title now. It looks a lot cleaner. I did the same for Ariana Grande and I've changed Leona Lewis' too, because she's only ever featured one or two artists, so it was pointless having a whole column with "None" every time. — Calvin999 10:30, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- Cool, once you are done let me know, I will merge my sandbox content. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:34, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not editing the article for the time being. If you want to add the albums from your sandbox I haven't done then you can do it now if you like. You'll just have to format them to the current format but you've done the time consuming bit already so it's just some copying and pasting. Also, I've stopped adding the "Indicates single release" because I don't want to make tables single release-centric anymore, as the list is about the songs regardless of whether they were released or not. I don't mind the Solely written by Madonna one though. I think that's informative. — Calvin999 10:35, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- Ok doing it now, but I think we need the single release indication atleast, and Madonna also has quite a few promotional releases, so I will indicate them too. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:40, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- To be honest, her singles discography does that. This is just a list of songs recorded and who wrote them. There needs to be a clearer distinction between the two lists. — Calvin999 10:42, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- See your point. Cool, but can I add the content now? I don't wanna edit conflict. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:45, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- And with as many singles as she has, I think that much colour can become distracting. Yeah I'm not editing the article. — Calvin999 10:46, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Calvin let me know when you would stop so that rest of the songs I can add it. This is shaping up pretty good. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 20:11, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not editing the article now. — Calvin999 20:37, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
Hey, Calvin. You beat me, because I was thinking create this list in English Wikipedia (first, I created in Spanish —when its a GA nominated—). Thanks, Chrishonduras (talk) 22:19, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
- Wow I see it's done very differently in Spain! I thought I was reading Madonna's bio at first. — Calvin999 09:31, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- Are you working on it now? —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:05, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- I've added some from Rebel Heart but I was going to leave it for a while, so go ahead. — Calvin999 11:07, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks I will add the rest of them and then leave a note here. Then you can do again. I always fear we would edit conflict haha. By the way, I don't agree to that Spanish version at all. Its just so WP:UNDUE. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:20, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- I can add the rest later. I don't have booklets for Music or American Life. And Neither do I. It's too much and repetitive of her bio and albums. — Calvin999 11:22, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks I will add the rest of them and then leave a note here. Then you can do again. I always fear we would edit conflict haha. By the way, I don't agree to that Spanish version at all. Its just so WP:UNDUE. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:20, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

- Are you working on it now? —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:05, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
Actually, its very different because, when I presented the list into GA system, the first reviewer ask me about a Timeline (in plan text) about her evolution and style. I already explained that its already figured in the main article. So I think that the first section its a copy edit, but the last, its good, because is refering about critics (and no details like in WP:UNDUE) about her work and put on the main will be exaggerated large and unnecessary.
I don't know I just commeted about the existing in Spanish Wikipedia (that however, the policies are a little different).
Regards, Chrishonduras (talk) 00:54, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks Chrisonduras, but we do think that the Spanish article is unnecessarily bloated. Calvin999, I finished adding all the officially released songs, now we can expand the lead. As noted above, I want to add the unreleased recorded songs also in a separate section and merge this pile of garbage here. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 20:43, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
- For Chrishondura: I'm not underestimating your work Chrishondura, you've clearly worked very hard on that article and done what someone suggested to you, but I agree with IndianBio.
- For IndianBio: Okay great, thanks. I worry that adding unreleased tracks on that scale would actually impede an FL promotion. I seem to remember something like this happening before for some reason. Unless a song has leaked and there is commentary on that song(s) from third party sources, I don't really see the point of adding unreleased tracks. Unreleased could mean written but not recorded, which would mean that it's not suitable for this list of recorded tracks. — Calvin999 21:38, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
- Understandable, but can we see which ones actually had a third party notability and maybe add them? —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:17, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. Like on List of songs recorded by Leona Lewis, I added a few that were very well publicized because she really did record them and we know that. — Calvin999 10:27, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- I asked User talk:SchroCat for his opinion since he is a FL delegate, would know better. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 12:04, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. Now you've added some prose to the lead, we have less than a week to write one and remove the under construction banner in order for it to be nominated at DYK. — Calvin999 12:24, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Can we go for DYK now? —IB [ Poke ] 12:03, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- I guess so? Can always add more later. As long as no banner is present and it looks finished somewhat then yeah :) — Calvin999 12:09, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- Lol, can you do that? I have no clue how to raise DYK requests :) —IB [ Poke ] 12:30, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- Really?! Okay. What do you think would be a good hook. Give me some suggestions to include. — Calvin999 12:35, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- What about ...Did you know that Madonna wrote five of the eight songs recorded for her debut album by herself? —IB [ Poke ] 14:26, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- I don't think that's interesting enough. It needs to be something quirky. The lead doesn't have anything about genres or lyrical content and themes, which is where something interesting might be found. — Calvin999 15:44, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- How about something from one of the poems she recorded? You don't come across singers doing that often. —IB [ Poke ] 20:04, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

- Lol, can you do that? I have no clue how to raise DYK requests :) —IB [ Poke ] 12:30, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- I guess so? Can always add more later. As long as no banner is present and it looks finished somewhat then yeah :) — Calvin999 12:09, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- Can we go for DYK now? —IB [ Poke ] 12:03, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. Now you've added some prose to the lead, we have less than a week to write one and remove the under construction banner in order for it to be nominated at DYK. — Calvin999 12:24, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- I asked User talk:SchroCat for his opinion since he is a FL delegate, would know better. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 12:04, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. Like on List of songs recorded by Leona Lewis, I added a few that were very well publicized because she really did record them and we know that. — Calvin999 10:27, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
- Understandable, but can we see which ones actually had a third party notability and maybe add them? —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 10:17, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
Yeah that would be more interesting. That needs to be in the lead though. And the DYK needs to be posted today. — Calvin999 09:42, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
- I will do some more expansion of the lead and add that poem line there. After that you can please nominate it. I will be done within the next 2 hours. —IB [ Poke ] 11:05, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah I will do it this afternoon. — Calvin999 11:07, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
- Did you get round to adding the info IndianBio — Calvin999 09:25, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
- Hi there, sorry for the delay, its done now. —IB [ Poke ] 14:43, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Heyo Calvin999, I have implemented the changes that you suggested. I will be going out of town for a few days, and probably out of an internet connection as well.

Gordon Ramsey comment
How can you not be Scottish and British at the same time? You do know that Scottish people are British right? Scotland is in the UK. That is like saying you cannot be Californian and American at the same time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.145.19.172 (talk) 23:14, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- God you're going back a bit. Last year? If you're born in Scotland, you're Scottish, no? I don't see why British would be used in any circumstance. Saying Scottish-born British is just perplexing to me. He is Scottish. — Calvin999 23:57, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

- You accept your attitude was disgusting, but also say it is a positive process to make an article GA. The why are you being negative. Please, this is getting embarrassing!

- YES, THANKS calvin. I look forward to more comments from you. Talk about what changes to make to get it promoted, and not why it should be failed/ Thanks.--MaranoFan (talk) 09:04, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
- The two go hand in hand. That's how a good article review works. If a lot is wrong or not good enough, then that constitutes discussion of failing. At the same time, up to five editors shouldn't be having to spoon feed you as to what is wrong and and what is right, and what to include and what not to include, which is what we've done. But you keep rejecting a lot of points. Why are you in such a rush? You was asking people if the article was ready for GA, they said not yet but you nominated anyway. As soon as it's nominated, you canvass for a reviewer. As soon as a reviewer opens the review, you immediately ask how long it will take. What is your agenda? It all looks suspicious. Assume good faith and be nice to Winkelvi. Half of the song nominations have been waiting since 2015, some of those for 8 months. Yours waited less than 18 hours. He is still being, I think, very generous by saying that there are so many issues and still placing it on hold when most would fail it. — Calvin999 09:10, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Hey Calvin, haven't seen you around in a while, hope you're well! I don't suppose you remember the time you reviewed "Ice Princess" and passed it as a successful GA, do you? It was the first song released in 2015 to be promoted, and I was stoked. Well, it seems that history may repeat itself. I've recently nominated "The Big Big Beat" for GA, would you happen to have the time to review it? If not, no worries at all. It's rare that I specifically ask someone to review my nominations (evidenced by the fact I'm spots #2 and #3 in the Songs waiting list haha), I just thought it'd be kind of neat if for two years on the trot, you reviewed the first song to pass as a GA in that year, and I be the one who nominated it (that is, if TBBB is up to scratch). I also thought of you because you're in the WikiCup, so there'd be a nifty 4 points in it for you haha. Let me know either way, and good luck in the rest of the WikiCup!

- Are you scared that I'm going to become a threat for you at the GA Cup or something like that? I see no other reason that an editor who has a history of positive edits suddenly plops out to disrupt any time I try to get something promoted. Lets sort this thing out.--MaranoFan (talk) 12:51, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
- Is that what you believe? Allen3's user talk is on my watch last. I just happened to notice you post and had a look at what you'd written. I don't have your user or user talk pages watch listed. My number of GA articles and reviews is completely irrelevant to this conversation. — Calvin999 12:54, 16 March 2016 (UTC)

- So you want to use me to make the Trainor articles better? Sometimes it's just too little, too late. You've said some not so nice things about in the past, you haven't wanted interaction and you never listen. Why should I give you a pat on the back for that?

Good lord. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 13:33, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
I've reverted your edit to the infobox as unfortunatley, it is not you who gets to decide whether the collapsing of it was unhelpful to the reader or not. Also, please note that there is a long standing consensus on the articles talk page to have the IB collapsed. In future, if you see such a format being used, and one that you have "never seen before, then you can lay money on it that there is a discussion somewhere that supports it. I would spend a bit of time investigating why the strange format is being used before simply reverting. So that being said, and just in case it's not clear to others, I've left a hidden message saying just that on the edit screen. CassiantoTalk 08:18, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

(ec) It's a medium, but please don't use "happy" in the context. - There was a discussion about collapsing infobox content in 2013, Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Infoboxes/Archive 7#Collapsed or hidden infoboxes. Peter Planyavsky was collapsed then, but isn't any more. (Remember, that was an article I wrote, but first wasn't "allowed" an infobox for because he also is a classical composer. Then it was collapsed. Interesting discussion ;) ) - We improved. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:14, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Please don't be impertinent Gerda. "Happy" suggests that neither side have an issue with the collapsed compromise. Hence why it's a compromise. If I were strictly speaking, I'd be happy to get rid of it altogether. CassiantoTalk 15:37, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- I don't know what you mean by impertinent. Happy, for me, means happy, full of joy. A collapsed infobox is better than no infobox, but no reason for me to be happy. Please remember that by infobox I mean just telling readers when that person lived where and what he did. I don't care for other parameters. We write for readers who never saw that face and never heard that name, - at least I do. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:00, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- This does nothing but disturb the peace. There was at least a stable long-term compromise on a collapsed infobox. And that was only out of respect for people who may find the infobox useful. If you can't accept that as I do then perhaps it's time to rid of it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:20, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Why would you even want to hide the info box? Might as well blank the info box and not have any info. That's the whole point of it, so you can read the essential facts quickly. — Calvin999 14:02, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Wonderful! That's exactly what we want, not to have an infobox. It's just that some of us are not being childish by deleting the box altogether. We respect the previous compromise of collapsing it, a compromise which both you and Gerda show utter contempt for. CassiantoTalk 15:35, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Why? Every bio has an info box and they are important? Why would you delete the box altogether? — Calvin999 15:51, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Wrong again; not every biography has an infobox, in fact I am seeing more and more at FAC now that omit them. Next? CassiantoTalk 16:42, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well I haven't seen any of these and I'm yet to come across a person's bio who doesn't have one. Are you a politician? You're avoiding every question I pose to you. Obviously you can't answer any of them. — Calvin999 21:25, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- You may get your rocks off propping up the loonies at ANI but I'm afraid I don't so I don't take part in ANI discussions. I find them to be a waste of time and infested by silly little admins and their own groups of fanboys. As such I'll post here telling you not to template me in future as I find it patronising. That is why I told you to fuck off; I don't like being patronised. Secondly, I find it puzzling to think that you have never come across a biography without an infobox. What about these, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here, not to mention the many more listed at WP:FA. CassiantoTalk 00:15, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- If you don't like being patronised, then don't patronise me by telling me "things are here to stay" and to "shut up." Telling me to "fuck off" is immature and it doesn't make you sound or look good, or even clever. Don't dish it out if you can't take it. You've been completely uncivil from the off. You've obviously gone to a lot of effort to list each of those bio's, but no, I haven't seen any of those before (because I don't know who any of them are, so I would never have needed to look or search for them). — Calvin999 00:27, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I'm entitled to tell someone to fuck off especially if that person deliberately templates me on my talk in order to patronise me. You certainly won't be getting an apology from me, if that's what your after. Don't be under any illusion that ANI in the least bit bothers me, because it doesn't. I find it hilarious that you've now gone from declaring that all biographies have infoboxes to now saying that you didn't know any of the subjects I listed above, existed. There seems to always be an excuse. Oh, and btw, if you want to see another collapsed IB that works well, here is another example. CassiantoTalk 07:43, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- What entitles you to think you can act like that with me or anyone else? No one is beyond a warning for not assuming good faith, as you have demonstrated and still demonstrating. There's no point keeping on posting links to collapsed info box articles saying "it works well," because you support them being hidden. It's superfluous and a waste of time. We don't agree on this issue, but you think you are superior and asserting ownership in a "my way or no way" style. — Calvin999 10:46, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I don't need warnings as I'm not a fucking child. Moreover, I don't need to be reminded of "my behaviour", especially from the likes of you, a mere 24-year-old. If that wasn't bad enough, you then feel the need to template me with a warning and pointers to various civility essays. That's why I told you to fuck off. In regards to your assertion that "it's my way or no way", then again, you are wrong. There was a consensus to have it collapsed and that very much stands; in fact, going by the response on the Sinatra talk page, the view now is to have the whole box deleted. The difference is of course, I'm not childish and I don't stamp my feet when I don't get my own way. Live with it. CassiantoTalk 12:47, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- You are acting like a child, and no one is above a warning. What does my age have anything to do with you or this? I can guarantee that I'm more intelligent, educated and informed about life than you are. I take it you are an old/older person who thinks it is his right to speak and act as you please. Wrong. Age doesn't earn you respect. Note that I've not reverted you posting on my talk, but you have me. Are you sure you're not immature? You are hilarious, you've provided me with a lot of chuckles. If you claimed to be mature and responsible are you keep alleging that you are, then you would stop harassing me on my user talk. — Calvin999 13:14, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- "I can guarantee that I'm more intelligent, educated and informed about life than you are. " -not true, if you knew what Cassianto's profession was and what he's experienced with his job you'd eat those words with humble pie and disappear back into the basement you belong in. Cassianto is one of the most intelligent editors on wikipedia and I can vouch has eons more life experience and education than you have. His only misdemeanor here is not adhering to Mark Twain's "Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience."...

If you claimed to be mature and responsible are you keep alleging that you are, then you would stop harassing me on my user talk. — Calvin999 13:14, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I don't need warnings as I'm not a fucking child. Moreover, I don't need to be reminded of "my behaviour", especially from the likes of you, a mere 24-year-old. If that wasn't bad enough, you then feel the need to template me with a warning and pointers to various civility essays. That's why I told you to fuck off. In regards to your assertion that "it's my way or no way", then again, you are wrong. There was a consensus to have it collapsed and that very much stands; in fact, going by the response on the Sinatra talk page, the view now is to have the whole box deleted. The difference is of course, I'm not childish and I don't stamp my feet when I don't get my own way. Live with it. CassiantoTalk 12:47, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- What entitles you to think you can act like that with me or anyone else? No one is beyond a warning for not assuming good faith, as you have demonstrated and still demonstrating. There's no point keeping on posting links to collapsed info box articles saying "it works well," because you support them being hidden. It's superfluous and a waste of time. We don't agree on this issue, but you think you are superior and asserting ownership in a "my way or no way" style. — Calvin999 10:46, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I'm entitled to tell someone to fuck off especially if that person deliberately templates me on my talk in order to patronise me. You certainly won't be getting an apology from me, if that's what your after. Don't be under any illusion that ANI in the least bit bothers me, because it doesn't. I find it hilarious that you've now gone from declaring that all biographies have infoboxes to now saying that you didn't know any of the subjects I listed above, existed. There seems to always be an excuse. Oh, and btw, if you want to see another collapsed IB that works well, here is another example. CassiantoTalk 07:43, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- If you don't like being patronised, then don't patronise me by telling me "things are here to stay" and to "shut up." Telling me to "fuck off" is immature and it doesn't make you sound or look good, or even clever. Don't dish it out if you can't take it. You've been completely uncivil from the off. You've obviously gone to a lot of effort to list each of those bio's, but no, I haven't seen any of those before (because I don't know who any of them are, so I would never have needed to look or search for them). — Calvin999 00:27, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- You may get your rocks off propping up the loonies at ANI but I'm afraid I don't so I don't take part in ANI discussions. I find them to be a waste of time and infested by silly little admins and their own groups of fanboys. As such I'll post here telling you not to template me in future as I find it patronising. That is why I told you to fuck off; I don't like being patronised. Secondly, I find it puzzling to think that you have never come across a biography without an infobox. What about these, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here, not to mention the many more listed at WP:FA. CassiantoTalk 00:15, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well I haven't seen any of these and I'm yet to come across a person's bio who doesn't have one. Are you a politician? You're avoiding every question I pose to you. Obviously you can't answer any of them. — Calvin999 21:25, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Wrong again; not every biography has an infobox, in fact I am seeing more and more at FAC now that omit them. Next? CassiantoTalk 16:42, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Why? Every bio has an info box and they are important? Why would you delete the box altogether? — Calvin999 15:51, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Wonderful! That's exactly what we want, not to have an infobox. It's just that some of us are not being childish by deleting the box altogether. We respect the previous compromise of collapsing it, a compromise which both you and Gerda show utter contempt for. CassiantoTalk 15:35, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Why would you even want to hide the info box? Might as well blank the info box and not have any info. That's the whole point of it, so you can read the essential facts quickly. — Calvin999 14:02, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Please don't be impertinent Gerda. "Happy" suggests that neither side have an issue with the collapsed compromise. Hence why it's a compromise. If I were strictly speaking, I'd be happy to get rid of it altogether. CassiantoTalk 15:37, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Just a quick note, I thought the IP's genre-warring was good faith, though disruptive. This is important because you were at risk of being blocked for edit-warring too, though the disruption can be stopped in this instance simply by blocking the IP (which I've done). Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:57, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well that's why I stopped at 3, but the IP did four. There's nothing good faith about it if you are told multiple times to stop and you carry on Ritchie333. — Calvin999 14:30, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- WP:3RR explicitly says you are not given a "free pass" to revert 3 times. I generally expect the experienced editor to know better. Since the loss of the "big orange bar", I am not convinced new users even notice warnings. See Ludwigpaisteman, who I've been waiting to unblock for ages as soon as he communicates. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:32, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- Well it's the first time in a long time that I've gone up to three. And it's called 3 for a reason. I see many editors use the full three quite a lot. — Calvin999 14:33, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- I almost always stop at 1. (See User:Ritchie333#One revert guarantee). There is no real reason ever to go to 3. I'd be interested to know which editors go up to the line without crossing it, because in my view they would be gaming the system and can be sanctioned anyway. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:57, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
- Usually vandals take note of one. I don't see the point of calling it the three revert rule if you are going to be sanctioned for making two or three reverts. It means you can revert three times on one article in a 24 hour period, the clue is in the name. If it is discouraged so much, then it should be less grey and more black and white. I haven't got any specific examples right now, but I do see three reverts in a 24 hour period on a frequent basis. — Calvin999 15:00, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Adele Live 2016
Hi Calvin999,
I noticed the edits you made in Adele Live 2016, and shows/sellouts is very unnecessary. It makes the table look too big, and all other tour pages does not say shows/sellouts. And when you add boxscore sources, they are put in the row where the continent is. Thanks! Musicpoplover12 (talk) 19:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- Hello. It doesn't really, because it's already white space not being used. It is relevant, because it shows how many dates at one venue are sellouts. I'm only including what Billboard itself includes. You will end up with too many boxscore URLs for where you want them to go. — Calvin999 19:42, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Please, calm down and drop the stick
I totally agree that a lot of MaranoFan's activity has been problematic. In my opinion her user page and contributions show signs of autistic traits, meaning that she needs more care from other editors. In this case, loudly pointing out her editing missteps isn't going to help her, or solve the situation; instead, it would only cause MaranoFan to create more problems. Your behavior does look like WP:HOUNDING to many editors. This isn't going to sound good to you, but I don't necessarily agree with your own previous interactions with editors (for example, with Coolmarc). You too are sometimes confrontal and may refuse to step back in heated conflicts. Let's face it, these editors have all made useful contributions to Wikipedia, even though you may not like the music they focus on. Try, for a temporary period at least, to focus more on content, which is what you do best, and less on editor interactions. Not only would you have less things to worry about, you would also be able to spend more time on creating content.

I don't see how I am hounding her (I don't even keep her watch listed). I give warnings out for people who violate rules and guidelines, and she breaks them on a frequent basis and does things on purpose, as shown on What We Do today. I removed an unsourced genre, and she added another unsourced genre. I know I can be combative and refuse to back down. I don't do it on purpose, that's just how I am. I can't and don't let things go over my head. I really don't understand what you mean by not liking the music they focus on. That is 100% irrelevant and completely untrue, I am surprised that you are making that accusation, or at least implying it. — Calvin999 18:09, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
- Just remember that every editor may have their own issues, right? MaranoFan is, admittedly, more problematic than many other editors, but you don't necessarily have to get involved with her. Just try to reduce your interactions with this editor as much as possible. SSTflyer 00:54, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

My point is, please don't try and psychoanalyse the situation, SSTflyer - if Marano hasn't explicitly said that they have autism or Asperger's, then it may be wise to assume that this is not the case, as you may well be mistaken. Furthermore, I quote this from ThatPeskyCommoner: "Being on the autism spectrum is no excuse for unacceptable behaviour". Most of us editors with autism or Asperger's are decent people, myself included. Please don't make assumptions. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 11:06, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Personally, If I was in MaranoFan's place (obv I don't have autism or other issues) I would be mad. But even If I had a mental disease I would still not be pleased, taking Chesnaught555 comments in mind. The user may be hyperactive on times and break some rules, but he also can do a pretty well job while editing the articles IMO. The reasons he and Calvin have issues are a different thing and I think that both of them can sort them out and I don't think there is no need for a mediation between these two users. — Tom(T2ME) 11:30, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
How am I escalating anything, SSTflyer? You made a completely out in left field comment diagnosing MF, not me. I'm telling you that you're not only wrong to do so, you're wrong in your assessment.

- @Winkelvi: Oh, sheesh. How does one go about withdrawing a nomination? Peter Sam Fan 13:53, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Why would you need to withdraw the nom? -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 13:59, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Peter SamFan, you do not need to withdraw the nomination. I hate canvassed GA reviews as much as the next person, but I am willing to review the article for you, if you so wish. I have seen you around when I have been doing AV work. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 16:30, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Chesnaught555: Thanks! I am now reviewing International recognition of Kosovo, so I hope that isn't canvassing. Peter Sam Fan 18:39, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Peter SamFan: That's a separate article, so I see no issue. I'll start the GA, as I'm more than happy to do so. --Ches (talk) (contribs) 18:44, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Looks like Calvin's doing it. :-) --Ches (talk) (contribs) 18:46, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
