Re Jordan Shanks
[edit]Hi,
Can I ask why you undid just about all the edits I made. The wording's clunky and it ought to be cut down a bit. 2603:7000:D03A:5895:2985:DCA0:EC54:5C93 (talk) 03:12, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- There was not much cutting down. There were many changes made, and most of them did not improve the article. For example, the introduction was changed to describe Shanks as a "self-help guide", when this should not be in the introduction before describing him as a political commentator.

Contentious topic alert
[edit]
You have recently made edits related to discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes. This is a standard message to inform you that discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS. Barkeep49 (talk) 16:16, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Barkeep49, what are the rules that apply here? Onetwothreeip (talk) 06:53, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
- Good question. There aren't any specicial rules for infoboxes, just the general expectations around contentious topics:
Within contentious topics, you must edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
You should err on the side of caution if you are unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations.
- Hope that answers your question. Barkeep49 (talk) 15:34, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for that, Barkeep49. The rules for contentious topics are not different to other topics? Onetwothreeip (talk) 07:06, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
- While the rules for editors editing around infoboxes are the same, administrators have more tools at their disposal to deal with disruption. As such, it's more important to edit carefully and constructively. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:02, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
- Then what are the different tools? Onetwothreeip (talk) 21:39, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
- Good question. The individual CT page for infoboxes lists what those are. As a note, everything box infobox probation is standard across all CT topics, but some CT topics (like infoboxes) have additional rules. Barkeep49 (talk) 17:16, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Barkeep49, but what are the situations when administrators can apply these sanctions? These don't seem any different to the sanctions that are broadly applicable. I'm not familiar at all with how contentious topics are treated differently than other topics. Onetwothreeip (talk) 09:37, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
- The way I think of it is that it's the same rules more strictly enforced. Strict in this sense means both that sanctions are given sooner than they might be in a non-CT area and that sanctions can be more severe when placed. Barkeep49 (talk) 09:41, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Your close of candidate criteria stuff
[edit]I was checking closure requests when I noticed your close at Talk:2024 United States presidential election § RfC: Polling criteria for “major candidate” status. I'm curious as to why you said no consensus for how inclusion criteria should be changed
. The § FORMAL proposal/further RFC: Change "major candidate" criteria for primary election candidates section seems to be the specific further RfC you talked about in the closing statement. Aaron Liu (talk) 16:28, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Aaron Liu, I was referring specifically to that sub-section, "FORMAL proposal/further RFC", when determining that there was no consensus on how the criteria should be changed, but there is strong consensus that it should be changed. That part of the discussion was becoming inactive and the editor who opened that sub-discussion requested that participants agree on the need for changing the criteria, rather than proposing new criteria. As a result of that sub-discussion, there were multiple new criteria proposed, and there should be another RfC to determine which changes to criteria should be chosen. Cheers. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:44, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
- Ah, I have misread it. Cheers! Aaron Liu (talk) 20:53, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Village pump (WMF)/Archive 6#RfC to issue a non-binding resolution to the Wikimedia Foundation
[edit]I say this having gotten my own close of this RfC overturned: You really ought to elaborate on why you closed the way you did, for such a high profile RfC. Otherwise it will likely be overturned. Cheers, Mach61 (talk) 04:04, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Not that "consensus for all three" is an implausible result, just one that is non-obvious enough to require justification. Mach61 (talk) 04:06, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you Mach61, I have thought about elaborating on the close. This close was deliberately brief and very specifically worded. Onetwothreeip (talk) 04:09, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Mach61: I have added some elaboration. Please let me know if you think anything should be further explained or if you have any questions. Onetwothreeip (talk) 04:20, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I don't think this helps much. You've added that you do not attribute consensus to the community as a whole, but have not explained why you found consensus (and no one needed to see the resolutions copy-pasted). Please give detailed reasoning. Mach61 (talk) 04:31, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

Fairuse mugshot of Tarrio
[edit]Do you think we could use this mugshot in the infobox, as multiple editors have proposed? Feoffer (talk) 04:43, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- I will stay neutral on which image should be used. You can start a discussion on whether this image should be used in the infobox. You can alternatively add the image to the infobox (if it hasn't already been attempted), and see if anybody opposes it. Also, the image you added in this edit was different to the two images proposed in the RfC, and did not need to be removed on the basis of the discussion closure. Onetwothreeip (talk) 05:07, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
Um, huh? The lead image had been in place for years prior to its removal minutes before you made this statement. VQuakr (talk) 22:06, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- @VQuakr: I did not remove any images from the article, as neither of the two images being discussed were in the infobox. There was a different image at the time the discussion was closed, but it was removed by Feoffer shortly afterwards. Onetwothreeip (talk) 00:20, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- I did not say you removed any images. The status quo (as it had been in place for over 3 years) was interrupted by Feoffer on December 23, [1], before they removed the 2nd image the following day, [2]. Your closing statement,
neither image was used in the infobox at the time
is not accurate. VQuakr (talk) 01:10, 29 December 2023 (UTC)- VQuakr, it was accurate at the time I closed the discussion. This version was the live version of the article at the time. Onetwothreeip (talk) 01:15, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, because someone had just removed it. That's an obvious issue per WP:GAME. VQuakr (talk) 01:17, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you mean. How was my statement not accurate? There was an image in the infobox, but it was not one of the two options discussed. Onetwothreeip (talk) 01:34, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- One of the two images referenced in the RFC had been in the infobox since it was added per talk page consensus, in June 2021. That image was removed, while the RFC was open and active, by an involved editor less than a day before you closed the RFC. Saying
neither image was used in the infobox at the time
is technically true but not accurate, in that it does not exhibit comprehension of the disruptive behavior that resulted in that condition being true. VQuakr (talk) 01:42, 29 December 2023 (UTC)- That makes more sense. The timing of the discussion closure was not related to any editing of the article. The relevance for saying that neither image was used at that particular time was because there were no edits for me to make in implementing the consensus result. For many RfCs, it is for the closer to implement the decision if applicable, and I was saying that this was not applicable as there was nothing for me to remove. If the infobox included one of the two images being discussed, I would have removed one of them on the conclusion of the discussion.
- The RfC closure has no impact on dealing with editing disputes. I would assume that the infobox image has changed several times, causing a Request for Consensus to be needed. You can restore or add images to the infobox (except for those two which have been rejected by the RfC), propose them to be added, or revert changes made by others. It's not for me to get involved in that. Onetwothreeip (talk) 01:55, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- So you're saying the no consensus result would have resulted in reversing the previous consensus even if the image hadn't been improperly removed? Why is that? That does lead to my 2nd concern with this closure, that it did not address the frivolous nature of the "promotional image" argument. That's an example of a WP:UPPERCASE argument, in which a bluelink is provided but it isn't germane to the actual discussion. The only reason that image, which contains no branding, slogans, etc, could be considered "promotional" is if the real complaint is that it doesn't show the subject in a sufficiently negative light. This was brought up in RFC discussion but never addressed by the folks wanting to change the image. VQuakr (talk) 02:44, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- I found there to be a general consensus against both of the images. I did not and would not consider whether any image was removed, properly or not, because that isn't relevant to the discussion of which image should be in the infobox. The arguments in the discussion were disproportionately regarding the weaknesses of the images, rather than their strengths, and the "promotional" nature of image A (as described by discussion participants, not me) was one of those weaknesses. The community should be able to find an image which has more support than either of those options. Onetwothreeip (talk) 03:02, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- A consensus against both images is not what your closure statement says, nor is it a supportable conclusion from the discussion in that RFC IMHO. I find this to be a very ill-considered close and will be pursuing review, of which I of course will formally notify you and link. I do want to thank you for your replies here, though. While we disagree on the closure, you have been both patient and methodical in explaining it. VQuakr (talk) 03:54, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- I have no issue with review of this. I am not enforcing any image or lack thereof onto the article, or anything else. In the closure statement, I outlined that the discussion was broadly against both images:
As discussion opposes both images more than they support them, and there has been discussion about other options, the infobox should use neither "A" or "B" and discussion should continue assessing other images.

- Thank you for notifying me, VQuakr. These comments on my user talk page are not part of the RfC closure, by the way. They aren't relevant in enforcing consensus on the article. Onetwothreeip (talk) 01:14, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
I can see where the problem lies
[edit]The Western Australian Goldfields is a term for areas in Western Australia that have had significant areas of gold mining occur is the lead and refers to the whole state.
- the point is that goldfields occur outside of the identified region with the name goldfields - the content is very telling - it involves other regions of the state of western australia - the category of goldfields esperance has been removed - the perceptual problem is understood - western australian - and not just one region - it has been very useful to see the problem, thanks for that, I do hope you understand the potential misunderstanding. JarrahTree 10:01, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- @JarrahTree: That's right, the Western Australian Goldfields article referred to gold mining areas of Western Australia, including those outside Goldfields-Esperance, and is not a contiguous region or topic in its own right. We have the article Gold mining in Western Australia for that. Cheers. Onetwothreeip (talk) 19:49, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. If only it were as simple as that - slippages in terminology over time in popular usage do not help - even the distinction between the mineral field and gold field as found at Mineral_fields_of_Western_Australia can be slippery when dealing with certain areas of the state.

Candidates of the next Australian federal election
[edit]Hi, just a bit confused- the article Next Australian federal election gives the date for the next election as "On or before 24 May 2025 (half-Senate) On or before 27 September 2025 (House of Representatives)", but in your comment on Draft:Candidates of the next Australian federal election you said that we're now within a year of the election so it should move back to mainspace? GraziePrego (talk) 01:45, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- @GraziePrego, I'd encourage anyone thinking of moving it to mainspace to consider the closing admin's remarks at the deletion review discussion, Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2024 April 25#Candidates of the next Australian federal election. TarnishedPathtalk 02:32, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- I read through that and both the AfD discussions before making this comment- I was just curious about 123's reasoning of their comment they left at the top of the draft ;) GraziePrego (talk) 06:04, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- And suggest that when editors think it is ready for mainspace that WP:AfC might be the more appropriate route. TarnishedPathtalk 02:34, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- @GraziePrego: The election will be no later than 24 May 2025 for both the House of Representatives and Senate. While it is legally an option for the House of Representatives election to be held separately as late as September, there is zero chance of this happening. Elections for both houses can also be held earlier than May 2025, at the discretion of the prime minister.
- As there are several candidates already declared in reliable sources, and the election is relatively soon, the article should be restored to main space. The hesitancy that some editors have in publishing this article is unprecedented and this would be the latest we have published this article compared to previous elections. Onetwothreeip (talk) 03:33, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
If you genuinely believe in the comment you wrote at the top of Draft:Candidates of the next Australian federal election, then I urge you to be WP:BOLD and submit it for review! The reason I removed that comment is because I have only ever seen comments at the top of drafts used as directives for AfC reviewers, not for editorial discussion. If you genuinely think enough has changed since the outcome of both the 2nd AfD and the deletion review then there is no reason why you cannot be the review submitter. J2m5 (talk) 10:48, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
- @J2m5: That is understandable. I also meant the comment directed to whoever may review the draft and not editorial discussion, although I don't think AfC is appropriate here. I would support another editor boldly moving the page into article space. There has been no conclusive discussion that this should not be an article. Onetwothreeip (talk) 12:40, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

BQ
[edit]Howdy. It was already discussed at WP:CANADA, that we treat the BQ as federal party, including only national numbers. We don't include 'only' Quebec numbers. GoodDay (talk) 20:28, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hi GoodDay. I had no idea someone else had tried to put the numbers in a few minutes before I did. I happened to be reading the article and noticed what seemed to me as a glaring omission. Onetwothreeip (talk) 07:58, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- No prob. GoodDay (talk) 15:52, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
You're jumping too quick. The discussion at WP:CANADA is in progress & there's currently no consensus for your proposal. GoodDay (talk) 20:26, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- @GoodDay: Respectfully, it seems you're fighting a battle on your own here. The change doesn't require discussion, as now three separate editors have tried to put the content into the article, but the discussion participants other than yourself support or are indifferent to the addition. Nobody is proposing we remove the federal vote proportion column either, so it's not particularly relevant whether BQ is or isn't a federal party. The federal numbers are still coming first as well, so if I were you I'd take that as a win. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:33, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- Would you 'at least' give the discussion a 24 hr run? If by then, you believe you've go a consensus, then so be it. GoodDay (talk) 20:35, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- @GoodDay: You have a right to make your case there, but I would be concerned about breaching 3RR, it looks like you've made five reverts in a day. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:49, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
- Not exactly five reverts, but they were related. I missed that. I'll restore the disputed content. GoodDay (talk) 20:52, 28 January 2025 (UTC)
