Proposed deletion of Speeches by Michael Crichton
Hello, HAL333

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Joel B. Lewis, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Speeches by Michael Crichton, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:


 * 1) [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit Edit the page]
 * 2) Remove the text that looks like this:
 * 3) Click the  button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And remember to sign your reply with. Thanks!

More stalking
[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Jean_Sibelius&curid=433107&diff=970545239&oldid=970533905 ... or plain coincidence?]  Cassianto Talk  23:12, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Nice. ~ HAL  333  23:14, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Sigh, HAL333. Must you be reminded to be mindful of the optics? El_C 23:16, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, ok, it was a little snippy, but the previous comment was only meant to agitate. ~ HAL  333  23:24, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * What I'm talking about is supporting right after Cassianto opposed, in a bullet point right below theirs. That was a lapse in judgment on your part. To keep matters deescalating, please keep a wide margin. I'm not saying you can't participate in the same discussions, but aim for sensible distance, please. El_C 23:28, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Will do. ~ HAL  333  23:37, 31 July 2020 (UTC)


 * , and  are not coincidences. This has to end. One more overlap and it’s ANI time, and I doubt many people would think this is coincidence. Hal333 has never edited the Sibelius article or talk page before, so I do wonder just how he found the discussion a couple of minutes after Cass. - SchroCat (talk) 00:01, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I am unable to load that. It just times out for me. El_C 00:05, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The tool can be found at WP:TOOLS. If you still can’t access it, that’s fine, I can just go to ANI for wider input. It’s creepy being stalked so regularly. - SchroCat (talk) 00:09, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, I got it. But this data could just be indicative of active interactions. Hounding is best shown through select individual diffs, which in this case would have to be recent (after deescalation was adopted). But I agree that this latest edit is suspect, which is why I admonished HAL333 for it. El_C 00:18, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * One more page where he magically appears and it’s ANI time. I normally avoid that cesspit like the plague, but stalking is the limit. Given this comment on the Sibelius page, it’s clear he just doesn’t get the problem stalking is here, or how many good editors have been driven off by it. That WMF are looking at bringing in heavier actions for this behaviour should stand as a warning to him, but we shall see if it gets through or not. - SchroCat (talk) 08:34, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You still haven't provided any diffs. ~ HAL  333  12:49, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * When you do it again (and I strongly suspect you will), the individual diffs will be taken from and  (where there is enough prima facie evidence for most people to agree you've been stalking, given the closeness of the timings and the number of occasions where you are second to the page) and they will be put to ANI for scrutiny by the wider community. Sibelius better be the very last place where you stalk people. - SchroCat (talk) 13:28, 1 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Just thought I would drop this here. Evidence of wikihounding by Cassianto:
 * Cassianto reverts my edit on a page they have never edited
 * Cassianto shows up at F. Scott Fitzgerald, which they have never edited, devolves to ANI
 * reverts my edit on a page which they have never edited
 * reverts my edit on a page which they have never edited
 * Should also note that I have agreed with Cassianto on a few discussions. ~ HAL  333  01:51, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think diffs from March and January are actionable for the reason stated in my last comment. El_C 01:58, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Nah, I don't really care, just pointing it out. ~ HAL  333  03:15, 1 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment From now on, there will be no edits from this account that could be considered wikihounding. I expect the same from other editors. ~ HAL  333  13:02, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Ah, yes. I recently saw an editor describe the issue as "the infobox wars" - quite humorous. ~ HAL  333  14:09, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * See, the term was coined in 2005, 4 years before I joined, 7 years before met the problem: Reach consensus. It stops being humourous when they want to ban your friend (who admittedly committed sins such as adding an infobox to The Rite of Spring on TFA day - today's featured article. - Read that discussion on the article talk, and you've seen it all.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:24, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It's just so trivial. ~ HAL  333  15:18, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes. The line "Please let's not add another eyesore to another beautifully crafted article." sums it up for me, and what could you possibly answer? (You may have seen that I tried. Also I like the editor, and think we are on good terms, - which may be more important.) You will also have seen that - years later (2015, next archive) - the "eyesore" was added by so far uninvolved minds, and the great Brian Boulton did not object, just help. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:29, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

Margot Robbie filmography
Films that have been released are considered primary sources and do not need additional sources. I can point to dozens of filmography pages on Wikipedia that do not include sources to simply list the film and their cast. That’s ridiculous. Especially when you consider (rightly) that IMDb is not s reliable source. I only included that because of your asinine assertion that a filmography needs sources when the film has already been released. Please get some kind of consensus about this because you are misunderstanding Wikipedia policy. Rcarter555 (talk) 05:17, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If you knew IMDb was not a reliable source, why would you add it? Please see Featured lists - you'll find that every single featured filmography has a reference for each role. I've written multiple featured filmographies - I think I would know. ~ HAL  333  11:26, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I don’t care how many filmographies you have written, a released film or tv episode is considered a primary source and additional sourcing is not required. Per Wikipedia guidelines, one of the definitions of a primary source is “artistic and fictional works such as poems, scripts, screenplays, novels, motion pictures, videos, and television programs” To remove legitimate credits because you’re hung up on this defeats the purpose of the filmography. I have started a comment section on the relevant talk page which I welcome you to participate in, but do not revert these legitimate credits unless and until you can get s consensus.

Infoboxes
Hi. I use infoboxes all the time. I want a quick overview of things and to see when the subject died or what his/her accomplishments were.

I dislike reading Wiki articles. Most are poorly written and inaccurate. A good infobox is just fine.

I see you're trying to add infoboxes. I see too you're having problems with consensus. Maybe I can help. But in all honestly I don't login to this site too much.

If you want to add infoboxes and want consensus, you can let me know. I'm with you all the way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueJackfruit (talk • contribs) 03:25, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I appreciate the sentiment. ~ HAL  333  03:53, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * While I appreciate the sentiment, you get around 10 opposed each time, so would need to have 50 to make a difference in consensus, and it's not good for relations among editors + a waste of time that could go into article writing, - that's why I stopped arguing. Needless to repeat: some argue as if it was infobox OR lead. I never understood why they can't coexist, and nobody I know suggested to change the "beautifully crafted" leads. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:54, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * ps: recommended reading today about music, for harmony ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:57, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with that - it's been a while since I initiated an infobox rfc or discussion. Instead I've been able to pass some featured content. But I think I have to hold the line and participate in discussions, as Leonardo da Vinci said, "Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence." ~  HAL  333  13:45, 21 August 2020 (UTC)


 * A first for me today: a featured list (= a featured topic in this case) on the Main page, see Main Page history/2020 August 21, an initiative by Aza24 in memory of Brian. - I wish he was with us. DYK that Brian came to my talk right before the arbcom sanctions to tell me of an experiment (CM means Claudio Monteverdi, and BB Benjamin Britten), and again? He wrote The Rite of Spring and Percy Grainger, - was always open for compromise and gentle respectful approach. I miss him. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:23, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Congrats! I have yet to have one of mine up there. I wish I could have known Brian - he seemed like a great guy. ~ HAL  333  20:34, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * While SchroCat, Tim riley and others knew him in person, I only met him on these pages. He and Tim offered me to participate in the FAC for Messiah, a great honour, - my first. (Next was Kafka, also in collaboration, and with Brian thoroughly reviewing. Only the third was a solo, BWV 172.) His last generosity was offering me his collection of sources for Monteverdi's Vespers. I was naive and just thought he had turned to Antarctic exploration. I guess he knew he would not live to use them. Quite a legacy, - again a great honour. Look. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:08, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, you did a great job getting them up to a featured topic. Are you planning on completing the articles on the Heroic Age of Antarctice Exploration? ~ HAL  333  21:13, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Of course. ~ HAL  333  13:06, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Less funny:, the edit for which I thanked was . I am happier without that dirt. So, I avoided clicking thank-you to you, for a while at least ;) - Recently, I received thank-you clicks for two infoboxes, Rudolf Hindemith and Symbolon, - much more fun than discussions in the walled garden of a few elite articles (less than 100 I guess) by a few elite editors (less than 20 I guess). We hope for constructive collaboration. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:52, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * You're always one of the most thanked editors, right? ~ HAL  333  18:04, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * No idea about always, but it's on record that I was No. 3 in receiving the "lazy thanks" 2019, and No. 1 in giving them (see top of my talk, below the New Year's resolutions, one f them being dominating a discussion too much). On a walk, I thought about reverting my last comment (which showed too much for my pride how much that hidden message had bothered me), but now that you commented, it's not fair. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:43, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

As a ref said: every educator should see it. Don't miss the trailer, for a starter. - A welcome chance to present yet another article by Brian on the Main page, Le Sacre du printemps (mentioned above, and btw, that ibox discussion has them all in a nutshell, these arguments, but the one supposed to be banned was Andy who refuted them all, - they just counted his edits and found them too many ... - Kafka is always close when infoboxes are discussed.). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:32, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

Uncollapsing infobox Frank Sinatra
Hi. I saw your edit history and SUPPORTED an infobox for Frank Sinatra.

The opposers don't have proper arguments. I think much of it comes down to the difference between amateur and professional writers.

Professionals understand that Nobody Wants To Read Your Shit, whereas the amateurs here on Wiki don't have a clue about what it's like to write for paid contracts.

This is why these amateurs are so possessive about their articles, and why they want to force users to read them (ie, do away with infoboxes).

PS. If you check the sources for articles written by some of these amateurs you'll see they are often very wrong. BlueJackfruit (talk) 09:56, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, I wouldn't call some of those editors amateurs. A lot of them are retired academics or just really bright guys and gals. Some of their works here are well beyond anything on Britannica. I just disagree with them on one or two trivial things, but beyond that I admire and respect them. ~ HAL  333  14:30, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

WP:AE is the worst Wikipedia has to offer, - I've been there, and try to avoid it like a virus, sorry for no help there. - For a glimpse at the best Wikipedia has to offer, look at collaboration. - I'd change this thread header. One of the bigger misunderstandings that the RfC is about the FS infobox. It is only about collapsing it (a kafkaesque idea to collapse what should be available at a glance) or not. - Best wishes for your GA efforts. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:41, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

NEGRO
Hello again.

See this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negro

In the first paragraph [after the intro] the article has this:

Around 1442, the Portuguese first arrived in Southern Africa while trying to find a sea route to India.

This is completely wrong and [obviously] unsupported by the sources. The error, YEAR 1442, seems to have been in place for over a decade.

Will you correct this? BlueJackfruit (talk) 05:29, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

List of descriptive plant epithets (I–Z)
If I could ask a favor ... I can tell from List of paintings by Thomas Cole that you know what you're doing here. You supported the other list (List of descriptive plant epithets (A–H)), and I made exactly the same edits on both lists in response to FLC comments ... so in terms of the things that FLC reviewers tend to care about, the two lists should be identical. If you have a chance to review the other list, I'd appreciate it ... it's been stuck for a while now with just two supports. I'll keep an eye out for your future FLC noms (whether you review this one or not). - Dank (push to talk) 19:36, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi Hal, hope you are keeping well. As you have been kind enough to review some of my past FLCs, I was wondering if you might swing by and take a look at this one if you have a spare few minutes? Not to worry if not. All the best, ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:18, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
