Hello, I'm Timothyjosephwood. I noticed that you recently removed content from Britain First without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Speedy deletion nomination of Opinion polling for United Kingdom general election, 1987

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Opinion polling for United Kingdom general election, 1987 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from United Kingdom general election, 1992 into Opinion polling for the United Kingdom general election, 1992. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:31, 29 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your Articles for Deletion contributions

Thank you for your participation in our Articles for Deletion (AfD) discussions! When signifying that you wish for an article to be retained, instead of typing "Don't Delete," or the like, the convention here is to write "Keep" in bolded text instead.

Again, thanks for your participation on Wikipedia. I regularly use the site to keep up with opinion polling data from around the world, and your contributions are greatly appreciated! schetm (talk) 03:42, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for June 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Central Bedfordshire, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Labour (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.)

Red links

Hi,

I see you've been removing red links from several articles. Why? You might want to have a look at Wikipedia:Red link.--Carabinieri (talk) 21:15, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I just thought that many of the red links of the text were not really notable enough for Wikipedia. Plus the fact I didn't really know about guidelines for red-link actually exsisted (so thank you for notifying me about this).JDuggan101 (talk) 21:26, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I've restored them because I do think those are topics that should have articles. If you're interested in contributing to the syndicalism article, I'd definitely welcome support and could send you some of the sources.--Carabinieri (talk) 21:47, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I wouldn't mind helping with the syndicalism article and it would be great to have you send some sources; also could you please tell me what needs editing and updating within the article.JDuggan101 (talk) 12:31, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the aspects that I think most need work:

A paragraph on the emergence of syndicalism in France
The section on the reasons for the emergence of syndicalism in general
The paragraph on the question of whether syndicalist ideas mainly reflected the views of leaders or whether those ideas spread to the rank and file
The paragraph on the relationship between syndicalism and anarchism
The paragraph on syndicalism and the general strike
The paragraph on syndicalist ideas on a post-capitalist society
Syndicalism and race and immigration
Struggles syndicalists were involved in before WWI (particularly the Mexican revolution)
The evolution and radicalization of syndicalism from the Charter of Amiens to WWI
Struggles and revolutions in the aftermath of WWI in Italy, Spain, France, US, Canada, Argentina, and maybe some other countries and particularly syndicalists' involvement therein
The history of syndicalism in the 1920s - mainly the discussions and arguments with communists, the Comintern and RILU and later the founding of the IWA (aka IWMA) in 1922
Syndicalist resistance to fascism and the connections between syndicalism and fascism in Italy
Syndicalism in the Spanish Revolution and Civil War

Is there anything there you'd be interested in? I've put together some remarks on how I feel this topic should be approached here (although my thoughts on this have evolved somewhat since then). I've also added comments throughout the article on what I feel is missing and sources that could be used to remedy that.--Carabinieri (talk) 15:49, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Blind reverts

Your recent reverts to the Zimbabwean general election, 2018 article reintroduced some highly dubious seat change figures to the tables. You should not hit undo on an edit unless you understand the full range of changes being made and plan to revert all of them – simply hitting undo without considering all the changes you are undoing is usually referred to as a "blind revert" and is very poor practice. Please be more careful when using the undo button. Thanks, Number 5 7 10:20, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the blind revert, I will make sure I don't do it again. JDuggan101 (talk) 10:21, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for October 7

October 2018

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Italian Prime Ministers official trips maps

Hi, I saw your great job in creating a map to represent the official trips of Giuseppe Conte, and I would ask you if you could create similar maps for Renzi and Gentiloni (you can find their official trips here and here). Thank you very much -- Nick.mon (talk) 11:55, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nick.mon, I have completed the maps for both Renzi and Gentiloni; would it possible for you to insert them in the articles? I can give you the hex codes for the colours, they are the same in both images.

One visit:#F0293B
Two visits:#C10D1E
Three visits:#820914
Four visits:#5E070E
Seven visits:#3C040A

Nick.mon don't worry I have already added them in the other articles. JDuggan101 ^{talk. | Cont.} 20:14, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FPTP map

Please just update the existing one (which does show the island countries) if it's wrong. Creating a new map wasn't necessary, and is particularly unhelpful as it uses a different colour scheme to File:Electoral systems map.svg. Also, it wrongly omits Sierra Leone as using FPTP. Number 5 7 16:53, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Number 57, I want to first apologize, I should of first used the articles' talk pages rather than just acting on my own. I don't really mind which map is used: it just I thought that the old png map was outdated and rather distorted, nations such as Austria become 'blob' shapes. The reason why I did not use the same colour as the File:Electoral systems map.svg is due to the fact it seemed rather unnecessary and does not seemed to be a consensus, for example File:Proportional_voting_systems.png does not use the same colours as File:Electoral systems map.svg. Finallly, I did not check Sierra Leone, File:Electoral systems map.svg has it as party list, and decided not to include in the map; this was because there was a problem with the sources used to produce the image. JDuggan101 ^{talk. | Cont.} 17:19, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The issue with the maps is that they both appear near the top of Electoral system, so it looks odd to have one use red then the next use blue to illustrate the sane thing. Number 5 7 19:59, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Italian regional elections

Hi JDuggan101, thank you for your great job in creating maps for Italian regional elections, however I'd suggest you to use two colors #EF3E3E for the centre-left candidate and #0A6BE1 for the centre-right one, which are the official meta-colors of the two coalitions. Thank you :) -- Nick.mon (talk) 13:00, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And I have a question too: which program do you use to create maps? I'm not a great expert in creating maps and graphs, but if it isn't so complicated... -- Nick.mon (talk) 13:09, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nick.mon; To create Maps I use Inkscape, along with reference maps from Wikimedia itself. The program itself isn't too complicated but I am a novice and your best bet to understand the program would be to watch YouTube videos, this one is far from political mapping but does have useful information: link. I do have one point which is always needed to know when uploading to Wikipedia: if your map has text make sure you create an upload version where the text has been converted into paths (Wikipedia has a bug where text does not correctly rasterize and comes out looking weird). JDuggan101 ^{talk. | Cont.} 11:56, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thank you so much :) In the following days I’ll try using it. Anyway, when you can, should you change candidates’ colors here and here? -- Nick.mon (talk) 12:56, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Maps in infoboxes

Thanks for creating the maps of the Barbadian elections. Just a tip – don't set the width of the map in the code. Maps automatically size to the width of the infobox, which in the cases of the ones you added, was actually slightly larger than the size set (making it a bit clearer).

"Changed 2019 election to an event" Why?

Why did you revert the work that I put into creating the 2019 UK GE row in the NI election poll section? It's standard for a lot of local election polls to still show how that place voted in the general election of the country. Very discouraging for people who want to contribute to see their work being reverted. This has led me to decide to not contribute to adding to and maintaining this article any longer. A shame given that I was one of the few contributors. --Spaastm (talk) 14:36, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Spaastm, I first off want to say that Wikipedia values contribuitions from all good faith editors (which you are) and I suggest that you should still maintain the Next Northern Ireland Assembly election article. The reason why I removed the election row and changed it to an event is mainly due to the fact it isn't normal for most opinion polling articles for the United Kingdom to include election results for anything other than what election that article is focused on, see the Opinion polling for the next Scottish Parliament election and the Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election. I'm personally not that interested in which method is used and was just editing it to fit the consensus. My edit seemed to have affected you and for that I do apoligise.

London Assembly Election Map

May I ask why you replaced my map of the London Assembly election with almost a complete duplicate? I understand from the article history that you were doing it "for consistency with previous articles", but how important do you really think that is? Do you realize that this argument essentially gives you a monopoly on all London Assembly election maps? I hate to be sound all angry about this, but I'm a bit frustrated that my map was replaced, so sorry for being like that. Thanks. Ayvind-Bjarnason (talk) 15:52, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
