Duplicate page created (by me)

Hi @Jnestorius: I ended up creating a duplicate of the divorce referendum page you created at Thirty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution Bill 2016, as it wasn't in the place I had been expecting it, or linked in the navbox or main table (not a criticism, a lot of my edits and new pages can end up being piecemeal!). There was a discussion which I had initiated a few years ago which would have preferred the title format you used, but it was opposed, see Talk:Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution Bill 2002#Requested move 19 December 2017. In the mean time, we should find the best ways to merge our two pages. —Iveagh Gardens (talk) 12:12, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

subperverse acquittals?

Hi -- in the course of this edit, you changed "perverse acquittals" to "subperverse acquittals". Was that change on purpose? I can't find anything about "subperverse" acquittals or verdicts online -- it seems to me that "perverse acquittals" was the correct term? Joriki (talk) 18:07, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, my mistake. I think I started to type "subornation" and corrected it to "nullification". Always a danger with pipelinks. jnestorius^(talk) 00:48, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

War looting listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect War looting. Since you had some involvement with the War looting redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 20:05, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

FA Cup rounds proper

Even the Football Association continues to use the word "proper" to distinguish the proper phase of the FA Cup from the qualifying phase. See here. – Pee Jay 13:19, 1 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Need help editing Boston Marathon

Hello, can you please add a space in the template of the main Boston marathon that redirects to the latest one (2019 Boston Marathon). Please ping me when updated or replied. IsraeliIdan (talk) 11:10, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Zvikorn: I suggest you explain what you want at Template talk:Infobox athletics race and put a notice on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Athletics and Talk:Boston Marathon. I have no opinion on whether this is a good idea or not, but editors with more interest in the topic may object. jnestorius^(talk) 12:12, 18 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, no one really replied so can you make the edit and if somebody objects they will put something on the talk page. IsraeliIdan (talk) 10:06, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Elena Cornaro

Hi, I see you have been editing Elena Cornaro Piscopia, and made an edit with the comment that "Ph.D. is a stretch". Did you find a discussion of the difference between the laurea awarded to Cornaro and a modern PhD in any of the sources you referred to? If so could you add a short section explaining that claims she was the first woman to receive a PhD are misleading? The article was edited with the comment "first to receive a PhD" just after your edits. I saw the doodle and there seem to be a lot of articles that claim she was the first woman with a PhD, but I did not find one that explained that she did not get a PhD. The "Doctoral degree?" section of the talk page is helpful but not sourced. I am reposting this as I somehow posted it into an archive on 8 June.TSventon (talk) 12:05, 12 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

HRRA

Hiya. Is there a particular reason that you have recreated the article/content on the Housing Rights and Reform Alliance? It was deleted only a few days ago per the inputs of Rosguill, Spleodrach and others to the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Housing Rights and Reform Alliance discussion. While I personally chose not to contribute to this AfD, I recognised the outcome. Were you aware of the outcome? If so, and apart from the fact that we now have deleted content being recreated in another form, do you have any thoughts on the situation we now have, where (perhaps) the least notable member of a list is populated with the most content? Or the situation in which one of the members of a list doesn't match the others. (In that, per WP:CSC, the members of a list might either all have an article, or might not.) In that sense, if the selection criteria here is no longer "other registered parties with an article", then is it now to be "all registered parties (article or no)"? If not, then why would the HRRA be listed when other "registered parties without an article" are not. Sorry for all the questions. But I'm a bit confused as to why the HRRA is worthy of special treatment relative to the deletion, selection, redirect, list and other criteria/norms.... Guliolopez (talk) 09:14, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The initial reason was the cryptic "HRRA" redlinks on 2019 Cork City Council election. In addition, "no elected representatives" was misleading; it did have one elected representative from 2017 to 2019. The obvious criterion for List of political parties in the Republic of Ireland#Other registered parties is all currently registered parties not previously mentioned; if some other criteria are to be used they should be discussed on the Talk page and stated in a comment at the start of that section. As regards "the least notable member of a list is populated with the most content", the problem (fixed) was too little content on the other list items, not too much on HRRA.

There are three possible next steps:

Discuss at Talk:List of political parties in the Republic of Ireland the inclusion criteria for "Other registered parties" and then take action
Leave as is
Delete the redirect, delete the list item, replace {{tl|STV Election box candidate2|party = Housing Rights and Reform Alliance }} with {{tl|STV Election box candidate without party link|party = Housing Rights and Reform Alliance }}, delete {{Housing Rights and Reform Alliance/meta/color}} and {{Housing Rights and Reform Alliance/meta/shortname}}

My vote is for #2 but whatever. jnestorius^(talk) 10:03, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Personally, as I'm a fan of WP:CON, I'll kick off option 1. Cheers. Guliolopez (talk) 10:09, 14 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

KTTL move, thanks

Thanks for the move on KTTL. I had been debating whether or not to move it.

I figured I'd explain why I put it at KMCS (Kansas) in the first place. Typically, broadcasting articles for defunct stations remain at the last callsign of the station unless WP:COMMON is overwhelming (it kind of is here, which is why I even considered it; even the AP article in 1985 is titled with "KTTL", a year after changing call letters, and this station earned national notoriety as KTTL). Some other reasons why it might not be at the last callsign include an extensive or important history under a certain set (such as WBOW (1230 AM)) or the station having gone off the air before adopting new call letters that existed on paper (KSUN (Bisbee, Arizona) isn't "KBZB" for this reason) or for a very brief period (WHSC (Hartsville, South Carolina) has its title because it was WLQR for six days and WTOD for six years—and in each case it was being used to warehouse other call signs from other cities).

Here’s a brownie.

I liked your article on Walker’s Hibernian Magazine. Quite a good read. The Time to Llama is Now (talk) 15:24, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
