5th Army (Germany)
Boleyn, with regard to the 5th Army (Germany). A question from a newby. I am trying to get my head around WP:DDAB and WP:INCOMPDAB It seems to me that 5th Army (Wehrmacht) is more specific / less ambiguous than 5th Army (Germany) hence the disambiguation page. As Fifth Army is less specific, I do not understand your changes. Can you explain where I am getting this wrong, please? Hamish59 (talk) 21:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Hamish. I'm sorry, I should have contacted you directly. It is a confusing area. Basically, a disambiguation page shouldn't have a disambiguator in it, i.e. something in brackets, such as (Germany). That makes it a sub-disambiguation page, and these can cause a lot of confusion. One I saw had been created where there was e.g. a John Fowler dab, John Fowler (American football) dab, John Fowler (sports) dab, John Fowler (born 1980) dab. If a new entry needs to be added to several dabs, it means that there's a fair chance someone will end up at a page without all the information. Usually in a case like 5th Army (Germany), if the info was already duplicated at 5th Army, I'd redirect to 5th Army#Germany, and create a Germany section. This would mean it would stand out clearly to anyone who typed it in. In this case, I didn't because I wasn't sure about mucking up the alphabetical order, and also it's a very short page, so it wouldn't take someone a second to look through all entries and find the right one. On second thoughts, I think it'd be useful. Glad to hear from a newbie - there's loads of stuff to do on here, so your contribution's really appreciated. Let me know if you have any further questions. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 08:54, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, Boleyn, I bow to your superior experience. You may wish to look at 1st Army (Germany) ... 8th Army (Germany) as well.  Hamish59 (talk) 22:00, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. The redirects will be useful additions, Boleyn (talk) 22:12, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Greatest Hits (Fleetwood Mac album)
Hi,

Can you please explain the rationale behind the "incomplete disambiguation" tag applied to this page? I assume this step is intended to precede its conversion back to a straight redirect to Greatest Hits (disambiguation) (as was the case before).

The incomplete disambiguation paragraph linked to states it applies "when a more specific title is still ambiguous, but not enough so to call for double disambiguation". I'd question this- I understand the desire to avoid a glut of messy, overlapping and duplicated disambiguation content.

However, I'd say anyone searching for "Greatest Hits (Fleetwood Mac album)" or "Fleetwood Mac Greatest Hits" (which redirects to the more standard form) would be better served by *not* having to pointlessly search through a long list of Greatest Hits albums by unrelated artists, when almost none of which would be relevant to their clearly specific need.

Would be interested to hear your thoughts. All the best, Ubcule (talk) 16:38, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Ubcule. I don't think this is an easy one. I think a redirect to List of Greatest Hits albums would probably be the best option; there would then only be about 6 entries, so the information wouldn't get lost among a really large list. Incomplete dabs do cause a lot of duplication and confusion, but I didn't propose anything as yet, because I wanted a chance for people to think it over carefully. What do you think of this more specific redirect? Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 16:50, 29 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I personally don't consider having the separate Fleetwood Mac page to be a major problem. :) Is the List of Greatest Hits albums complete? It strikes me that if it was, then it would be a lot bigger than it is, and hence the F list would still be quite long. Ubcule (talk) 20:16, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I suppose that is a point, a Greatest Hits list can never be complete. I'll copy this across to the Talk page of the article, if you don't object, and see whether people think this is a valid exception to the usual rule. Boleyn (talk) 19:21, 3 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure that this case counts as an "exception" to the rules as written, but feel free to go ahead with that. All the best, Ubcule (talk) 15:19, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

Are you also amused?

Hi. When you recently edited Nino (name), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Port Isabel (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Perth, Western Australia (disambiguation)
Apologies if I've missed something but where have you argued the case for a merge or explained the incomplete dab tag? It might be obvious to you, but simply dropping a template on the page is not going to get a result. I see the page as helpful for readers. Moondyne (talk) 14:31, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, it's sorted now. Please think over my comments at Talk:Perth, and then add your opinion. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 19:19, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Barnaart
Hi Boleyn,

I noticed this edit. I dont seem to be able to comment on it elsewhere, and I dont understand the purpose of the template, so I'll just reply here. Jacobus Barnaart didn't have any mention in Wikipedia at all some weeks ago - it is an occupation and area in time which we have currently badly covered for the Netherlands in English Wikipedia. For what I can find, he was quite a wealthy merchant, manufacturer and baptist in Haarlem, and seems to have enough relevance that way. Even if there are currently yet no links made to him on Wikipedia, and there is limited online material available. effeietsanders 22:23, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello, and thanks for your message. You could have commented at Talk:Jacobus Barnaart, or here's fine. I marked it for further looking at for a couple of reasons. Firstly, is one of these clearly more notable than the other (although both may well be notable)? If one is clearly more notable, then per WP:TWODABS, a hatnote would be a better option than a disambiguation page. My second, and main, point, was that a disambiguation page is an index of Wikipedia articles, and notability doesn't really come into it. Entries preferably have an article of their own, or meet MOS:DABRL or MOS:DABMENTION. This is an unusual one. He meets those guidelines (just), but the information is in the article on the other of this name - and therefore for both, the only useful place to send a user is to the son's article. Possible solutions to this are deleting the dab and putting the son at the primary page, seeing if he meets MOS:DABMENTION in other articles where he isn't redlinked, and redlink him, or someone may create an article on the father. You're right that English Wikipedia lacks a lot of articles, and that's why I didn't redirect the page to the only useful article - I was hoping someone else would be able to arrange a better solution. What do you think? Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 18:39, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Thomas Briggs‎
I'm quite prepared to believe that I have things back-to-front, but couldn't you have just moved Thomas Briggs‎ (disambiguation) back to Thomas Briggs‎ over the redirect? Oh, and it would have been nice to see a note to the effect that you were correcting a mistake of mine. Cusop Dingle (talk) 19:14, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Cusop. As far as I'm aware, you need to be an admin to change that, I'm not able to do it (as far as I know). I didn't know if I was correcting anyone's mistake or not, and I don't tend to contact people to say I'm proposing an uncontroversial move - I don't think it's in the guidelines, although I may be wrong, but certainly I'd get little done if I contacted everyone who'd been involved on a page to say I was proposing (and not making) a small change. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 21:30, 12 February 2012 (UTC)


 * If a redirect has not been edited since it was created (even by the bot which rushes round classifying what type of redirect it is), then you can move the target article back to the redirect just by using the Move tab. If the redirect has any edit history other than just being created, then you can't and you have to use the db-move approach or, if controversial, the WP:RM. At least, that's my understanding of it. (Alternatively: try using the Move tab, and if it doesn't work then use a Plan B!) Hope that helps. Pam  D  22:28, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
 * That was my understanding too. BTW, I did not say that Boleyn needed to contact me to agree the request for deletion, but that I would have appreciated a message to say that it was happening, and why.  Cusop Dingle (talk) 07:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Re: Richard Potter
Hello. I just thought I'd let you know that this page, which you created, has had a lot of edits made to it and has been tagged for improvement. I thought I'd let you know in case you objected, or if you could help with the cleanup. Thanks for creating the page, it's clearly needed. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your message, I hope that this finds you well! In background, about two weeks ago I was trying to write an article on Richard Potter (businessman), who was a chairman of the Great Western Railway. So far, two weeks and almost 12 new articles later, I am at best only half way there. Presently writing articles on short-lived newspapers and researching radical 18th century politics! Amazing where this project leads you. Good Luck! Best Regards, --Trident13 (talk) 21:14, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Short disambiguations
You appear to be using my contribution list as a resource to find short disambiguations that you can improve. Let me start by stressing that I have absolutely no problem with you doing that. I just wanted to point out to you where *I* am getting the disambigs to which I'm adding the Long Comment template. My source might be a more efficient source for you than my contribution list. Specifically, I'm getting my pages from one of the tools-server Short Pages reports. They are updated approx once an hour, and the vast majority of the pages on the list are short disambiguations. My own work on short pages, and thus short disambigs, comes and goes in spurts. The SP reports, though, always show a large number of pages that can use at least a look-over. - TexasAndroid (talk) 19:16, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Texas, I seem to have been noticing your name a lot lately, as well. However, no, I haven't been using your contribution list, I've just been monitoring [Changes related to "Category:Disambiguation pages"] a bit more closely than usual. Thanks for the link, I may well look that over. Best wishes and thanks for all your hard work, Boleyn (talk) 19:20, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

william bevan
of course! i'm just so used to kneejerk reverts at this point that i twitched, so to speak, at the wrong moment. perfectly valid addition to the dab page, and please accept my apologies. william bevan should have been a dab much sooner, really. Kaini (talk) 23:54, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

No problem at all, I just wanted to make sure you didn't waste your time investigating it too much. Thanks again, Boleyn (talk) 06:28, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Abdullah Khan
Hello I notice you made a number of edits tidying up this dab page a couple of days ago. My apologies, I have had to delete them, as I have reverted back to 7th February. Up until then this was an article page, which was blanked and re-written without explanation (thusly). I've put an explanation on the talk page (here) and invited comment. Sorry once again, Swanny18 (talk) 23:03, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I've made those edits again to Abdullah Khan (disambiguation) now, so they haven't been lost. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of "William Coventre I"
A page you created, William Coventre I, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. waywardhorizons (talk) 21:49, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

You tagged this for speedy deletion less than one minute after it was created. If I was new to creating articles, I'd feel really harassed and put off by this. The article already stated that he was an MP, so importance was already asserted. Please thinktwice before being so trigger-happy in future. Boleyn (talk) 21:54, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
 * My apologies. I posted a response on the article's talk asking the admins to disregard it. Sorry if I pissed you off. -waywardhorizons (talk) 22:02, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Have removed the speedy template: I don't know why Waywardhorizons didn't do so themself, unless they've just never read the wording of the template they're so ready to dump onto an article! Pam  D  22:12, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, Pam, and sorry this wasted your time. I'll be more careful to add an 'inuse' tag straightaway in future, so it's less likely to happen. Boleyn (talk) 22:14, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

The main issue
Hey Boleyn new to meet you too. I have a few questions on the Rosa Llunch Bramon and its problem. First is the citing problem, I have a few reference and one of the reference has more references to it. Whats your best advice on what I should do since I'm new. Second for the notability issue, She is has won awards and other things I'm just taking a break from her page before researching for it. Wont she also apply to the Notability standards since she is part of Wiki Project Woman in Red for the "Notable Female Historians without a link in Wiki" and has several articles and pages written about her and her occupation. Thanks for helping the pages and its issues and respond to me ASAP. --PrimaLInnstinct (talk) 20:13, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
 * , thanks for your message and welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for taking the time to create an article. The references would be clearer is they were inline (see WP:INLINECITE) - at the moment it's unclear where each bit of information comes from. From what you have written, she sounds notable, she just needs referenced info on her awards, and any other way she meets WP:PROF or WP:GNG. It can sometimes take a while for a new article to get all that added though. Thanks again, Boleyn (talk) 21:47, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

2002/03 and 2013-14 Iraqi League
Hi Boleyn. I would like to ask if you could help with an issue we're facing now in the Iraqi Premier League topic.

Basically there are contradicting sources about the league winners in 2002/03 and 2013/14. The sources are very shaky to say the least and I think an admin should have an look at it.

https://ahdaaf.me/2019/07/16/iraqs-post-truth-wikipedia-league-champions-how-four-titles-became-six/?cbg_tz=-120

The Wiki editor won't be convinced by what I say and won't change his opinion. Could you please help?

Steel Dogg (talk) 11:50, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Boleyn, I'm the Wiki editor Steel Dogg is referring to. I know Steel Dogg has good intentions but I feel that he is ignoring primary sources from reliable and reputable organisations or websites. Everything on the 2002–03 Iraqi First Division and 2013–14 Iraqi Premier League pages are well-referenced with primary sources. Why should we ignore a plethora of reliable primary sources just because of an opinion piece or lower quality secondary sources that's not how Wikipedia supposed to work. Hashim-afc (talk) 01:44, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello, and . It's a shame that's this dispute has arisen, when you both are clearly trying to make the article the best it can be.

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Jbhunley and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Bo Johnson should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Bo Johnson.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read.

 * Thanks, . I only created it as a redirect to a different target, but appreciate you letting me know and I will look it over. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 19:19, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I did not notice the author of the article did a copy-paste-move from Draft: to the page you created so you got the auto-template instead of them. Cheers! Jbh  Talk  19:36, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Not at all, I was still somewhat involved and interested. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 19:48, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter September-October 2019
Hello ,

Instead of reaching a magic 300 as it once did last year, the backlog approaching 6,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.

A proposal is taking place here to confirm a nominated user as Coordinator of NPR.

Why I Hate Speedy Deleters, a 2008 essay by long since retired, is still as valid today. Those of us who patrol large numbers of new pages can be forgiven for  making  the occasional  mistake while  others can learn from  their 'beginner' errors. Worth reading.
 * This month's refresher course

Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon (you will need to have 'Nominated for deletion' enabled for this in your filters) may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders using Twinkle. They require your further verification.
 * Deletion tags

Please be sure to look for the tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. WMF policy requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.

 * Subject-specific notability guidelines' (SNG). Alternatives to deletion
 * Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves once more with notability guidelines for organisations and companies.
 * Blank-and-Redirect is a solution anchored in policy. Please consider this alternative before PRODing or CSD. Note however, that users will often revert or usurp redirects to re-create deleted articles. Do regularly patrol the redirects in the feed.

Regular reviewers will appreciate the most recent  enhancements to  the New Pages Feed and  features in the Curation  tool, and there are still more to  come. Due to the wealth  of information  now displayed by  ORES, reviewers are strongly  encouraged to  use the system now rather than Twinkle; it  will  also  correctly  populate the logs.
 * Not English
 * A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with WP:NPPNE. Check in Google for the language and content, and if they do have potential, tag as required, then move to draft. Modify the text of the template as appropriate before sending it.

Stub sorting, by SD0001: A new script is available for adding/removing stub tags. See User:SD0001/StubSorter.js, It features a simple HotCat-style dynamic search field. Many of the reviewers who are using it are finding it an improvement upon other available tools.

Assessment: The script at User:Evad37/rater makes the addition of Wikiproject templates extremely easy. New page creators rarely do this. Reviewers are not obliged to make these edits but they only take a few seconds. They can use the Curation message system to let the creator know what they have done.

Sorry mate
Hey, Boleyn. My name used to be I-CANT-THINK-OF-USERNAME!, if by any chance you can remember. Back in 2017, I created a lot of unnotable and unreferenced articles, which always had to be fixed by you. You warned me a bunch of times on my talk page, but I didn't even know ideas talk pages existed. Just saying sorry for being a pain... :/ Melofors (talk) 21:55, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi,, don't worry, I once went through a spate of creating unreferenced articles years ago despite being asked to stop - we all change our editing as time goes on. Welcome back! Boleyn (talk) 05:37, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

William Jephson (died 1698)
Hello, this article has the hallmarks of being automatically created (e.g., with a script) that has malfunctioned - e.g., strangely incomplete fields and incorrectly formatted links (in this version). So, just drawing it to your attention in case there's something you need to fix. I've made a couple of minor edits but it hasn't resolved all the problems - thanks.

User needing thoughts about
Hi there. Can I direct you to Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive978. The user continues to create poorly referenced BLPs. Also, the user's responses haven't been the best. "If someone decides that I'm doing series of ancient "World Junior Curling..." so badly - ok, I'll stop it right now and someone (if he/she want) can do it without my stupid brain. I have so many work in my Russian Wiki about curling, but I decided to help english-spoken people... I'm sorry for my (as I can see for today) exactly no needed and stupid helpings. Do it at your own hands, guys." and "Hi there. I think nothing about "start class" (or any "class") for articles. I create article "as first version" and talk page for it - and anyone who want (and who "know how" - it's not me) can decide what "class" this article has. Excuse for my "not mother tongue" English (I'm Russian from "West-West Siberia"" so why are they reviewing the article if they know nothing about reviewing ("I think nothing about "start class"")? It also looks like Earl Andrew is sticking up for the user. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks, Willbb234Talk (please &#123;&#123;ping&#125;&#125; me in replies) 21:22, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello, . I think the responses and references aren't great, but meet the basic criteria. I'll keep an eye on it. It's always hard when someone is translating from another language to know whether to take it the same as you would if it was someone whose first language is English. Thanks for keeping an eye on this. Boleyn (talk) 19:07, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi Boleyn....I submitted an article on Dr Albrecht Preusser which you placed in draft. What changes would you like for that article so that it may be published? with thanks FZS001 — Preceding unsigned comment added by FZS001 (talk • contribs) 09:13, 14 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hello, . The main problem was that it was unreferenced, I'm pleased to see you've addressed this. I'm no expert in this field so will leave it for the AfC reviewer to see if they have final suggestions. Well done on your hard work, Boleyn (talk) 05:53, 19 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi Boleyn, informed me, that he has set up a page about myself, and that it is under review. I checked, and improved it a little bit. I hope that will help in the AfC process.Schnupperuser (talk) 13:44, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
