User talk:FrederalBacon/Archive 1

ANI
You've been posting a lot on ANI -- something like 50 of the last 500 posts there are yours. And some of your posts show only superficial engagement with the context -- for example, in this one, you mention that the user has retired, which was already a topic of conversation 6 days ago. I think you should consider giving it a break and doing something more constructive for a while. JBL (talk) 00:45, 10 August 2022 (UTC)


 * I appreciate the input, thank you. FrederalBacon (talk) 00:47, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
 * You know, I'm gonna address this a little further. Have I been disruptive to ANI? Have I been uncivil? Have I done anything, other than posting there a lot, to warrant a "Hey, you should take a break"? Because I will give that argument the weight I feel it deserves, which is none.

Archive template
Hey didn't want to get into an edit war or edit conflict or anything but I wanted to point out what was going on with your template issue. The template goes immediately after the header, not before. - Aoidh (talk) 09:28, 9 July 2022 (UTC)


 * THANK YOU! I was so confused. Fbifriday (talk) 09:30, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * It's certainly not intuitive so it's a mistake I've seen more than once (I've probably even done it myself honestly). Apparently putting the header inside the template like that messes with a whole bunch of stuff including the archive bots and I also think wikilinking? I'm not sure but glad I could help :) - Aoidh (talk) 09:35, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

"Ron Merkel"?
There seems to be this user you and I have been reverting that keeps changing names to "Ron Merkel". The user is already at AIV but seems to still be changing the names. What do we do about this? Thanks. weeklyd3 ( block &#124; talk &#124; contributions) 04:05, 23 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Just keep reverting until an admin gets to him. I've seen Ron Merkel spam a lot lately, don't know what's up with it, or who that even is. FrederalBacon (talk) 04:06, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh no, it has happened again. Hope an admin takes care of this soon. weeklyd3  ( block &#124; talk &#124; contributions) 04:06, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * He's done it, at this point, dozens of times. They'll get him soon, I hope. FrederalBacon (talk) 04:10, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Looks like the user is abusing talk page access. Maybe someone will revoke it. weeklyd3  ( block &#124; talk &#124; contributions) 04:52, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Housekeeping note for future reference: Current vote is 0-6-0, the arbs appear to be set to decline the case as premature. FrederalBacon (talk) 16:48, 16 August 2022 (UTC) FrederalBacon (talk) 16:48, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Arbitration request declined
An arbitration case to which you were a party has been declined by the Arbitration Committee. The declining arbitrators felt that the request was premature. For the Committee, GeneralNotability (talk) 21:17, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

A "fresh start" can't start with the assumption of political bias.
Re your comments on ANI. I was interested because your statement, in one sense can be construed as something marvellously profound. I was wondering if you wanted to elaborate on that but I now suspect that you meant it in a more jejune fashion. Again, not to worry. --Pete (talk) 01:16, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

You have received the Teamwork Barnstar!

 * Thanks! It's a high priority article in terms of views and current notability, I'm glad to have the team we have working on it. It's amazing how civil everyone can be on a controversial article if we all just talk it out. FrederalBacon (talk) 19:07, 24 August 2022 (UTC)

Gabbie Hanna "Unsourced Content"
A recent edit made about Gabbie Hanna's manic, hyper-religious, and (in my opinion) insulting recent TikTok posts was deleted for "not being sourced" even though any person could look at her TikTok account, and see those videos. There are even articles now being written about it. Instead of deleting the edit, wouldn't it have been more helpful to add that source? or make a suggestion? instead of wiping it? it feels as though you're purposely trying to suppress that information, which is NOT what Wikipedia is about. Wikipedia is about bringing factual information to people's attention if they so desire. You know how to add a source on Wikipedia, so there's no reason to wipe that factual information. Leave a suggestion, or better yet, add the source yourself instead of deleting content ImARealNazgul (talk) 06:25, 31 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Your edit was clearly not neutral POV, was clearly expressing your own feelings about the subject, as you express above, and simply having a TikTok is not notable. If there are articles being written, use those articles, and don’t include your own personal feelings, include what the sources say.


 * Also, the WP:BURDEN is on you to cite the information, not me. Don’t cite something in a BLP, it gets removed immediately, per guidelines.


 * Have a nice day, and please consider assuming some good faith, since your above message did not. FrederalBacon (talk) 11:02, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Feel better
Saw you got the virus. Hope you feel better and have a quick recovery. Andre🚐 04:52, 30 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you. Yeah, my second go-around, and I'm solo, the wife doesn't have it this time. Gonna have a lot of free time for the next 5 days.
 * Hey, I wanted to also say, I know we had a bit of a rough start right about the time I think we both got back into editing after time away, but I just wanted you to know I've really come to value your input, even if sometimes it makes me wanna roll my eyes through the back of my head, lol. Don't stop trying to make improvements, one of them will stick eventually...maybe..... FrederalBacon (talk) 05:06, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hahaha. Thank you. I appreciate that. Likewise I appreciate your commentary even though I know we were butting heads a bit early on. Best wishes with the quarantine. Andre🚐 05:09, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted
Hi FrederalBacon. Your account has been added to the " " user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember: The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. — TheresNoTime (talk • she/her) 20:55, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging  pages for  maintenance so  that  they are aware.
 * You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
 * If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
 * Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

Cumming School of Medicine Animal Names
This dude keeps removing my class from our medical school wiki page. We didn't choose the name, yes it sounds fake but we're actually the spiny lumpsuckers stop taking it down. 2605:8D80:32F:FB0:4419:D2E5:1ED7:1B31 (talk) 02:35, 11 September 2022 (UTC)


 * You're kidding me, that's real? I am so sorry for that class, go ahead and put it back up, but it needs a source still. FrederalBacon (talk) 02:37, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Sorry...
...for being so grouchy. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:56, 8 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I just replied there, don't worry, no harm no foul. I'm more concerned with correcting my tone to avoid coming across stronger than I mean than I am with what you said. FrederalBacon (talk) 17:59, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Nah, your tone is fine - I'm just jaded by the way ANI/AN works. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 18:01, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Auto-archive
Hey, in case you weren't aware, I configured an archive bot to archive threads at Talk:Andrew Tate automatically, so there is no need in archiving manually. Throast  { { ping }} me! (talk &#124; contribs) 22:18, 9 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I assumed autoarchiving was on, but that was a bigger thread where the last reply was 8 days ago and the editor who started it is CBANned because of it, so I figured it could just go at any time. FrederalBacon (talk) 22:26, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Solo Sikoa
Hello, Frederal. Since you looked interested in pro wrestling articles, can you take a look on Solo Sikoa? It's an article about a rookie and I tried to avoid the many problems you pointed. Also, about the WWE Championship, I'm fine with your ideas about the sports teams you said. HHH Pedrigree (talk) 13:20, 7 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I will take a look at this later today. I still intend to come to the PW project page sometime soon, I've been dealing with the second round of COVID and haven't had a lot of energy to devote to it yet. FrederalBacon (talk) 20:33, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Wow, I hope you're better. I had COVID years ago, but I was asymptomatic. Take care and read the article whenever you can. I also tried with [Parker Boudreaux]], since they are rookies the articles are short and I can handle them better. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 09:48, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I took a look, the article looks good to me. The only thing I would make of note is that where the injury is mentioned, I took a look through the sources and didn't see an injury mentioned in either. FrederalBacon (talk) 16:26, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
