 * Hey @Aitzaz Imtiaz, it looks like you've gotten this resolved. Sorry, I'm not usually very active on weekends. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:11, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Move the article
Hey, @Hey man im josh a new article has been created, Mahsa Amini(Jina). We want to move it to Mahsa Amini. but it is redirecting to the Death of Mahsa Amini. Please if possible delete the redirection and move this article Mahsa Amini(Jina) to Mahsa Amini and change language links between this article with Persian one. Thank you, Caravaneternity (talk) 12:55, 3 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Caravaneternity. Normally this would be best requested at WP:REQUESTMOVE. I don't actually have the powers to complete this request for you. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:01, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks Caravaneternity (talk) 13:08, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Sorry!
Hey there! Sorry about this edit. I was trying to revert the very same edit you did, and the one before it (uncited.) I think we tried to remove it simultaneously and consequently I reverted yours too lol my bad! See you around! SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 15:45, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * And for some reason, I did the hyperlink wrong. Oy. SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:45, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Nah, no worries, you were right to revert back further whereas I only reverted the most recent edit. You'll never need to apologize to me for things like that when you're totally in the right =) Hey man im josh (talk) 15:46, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Sounds goooooood! Sometimes all this happens SO fast, it's hard to keep up with, but when more than one person overlap on reverting this stuff, I guess that's a good problem to have! :) SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 15:48, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Hey @Spf121188, thank you for noticing and going out of your way to give this to me. It's a beauty of a barnstar and it's very much appreciated. Hey man im josh (talk) 21:08, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Thank you!
Hello, Hey man im josh,

Thank you for your help tagging expiring drafts today. Ordinarily, we have about 200 drafts expiring each day but on April 4th, 2022, an admin went through and did a lot of fast corrections of many drafts and our list today has 500+ drafts so it's more than double our regular size. I know it's kind of a tedious task to tag pages and post talk page notices so I appreciate the extra help. The bulk of the extra taggings should be done by 21:00 UTC. Thanks again for the assistance! Liz Read! Talk! 19:35, 4 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Liz, always nice to hear from you.
 * I did think there were quite a few more today but not that many more, wow! Once I saw who the cause of that was it made a lot of sense. I'm always happy to help and your encouragement is appreciated. I'm just grateful for the scripters of the community, otherwise I'm not sure I'd have the interest in this task that I do. Hey man im josh (talk) 21:14, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Odd closure at AfC...
... not by you, I hasten to add, but as you're evidently a page regular, any insight as to what's happened at Articles for creation/Redirects and categories? 109.255.211.6 (talk) 19:11, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey it looks like they've reversed their action. Personally I've left it for someone else to decide on because I've worried it's an ambiguous title that could be better suited for another destination. However I don't feel strongly enough to deny it, so I've left it be for someone else to make the decision on. The user who processed the request, to be frank, probably isn't experienced enough to be participating on the processing end of the requests, so I'm glad they've self reverted. Hey man im josh (talk) 21:11, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * They didn't self-revert, that was Qwerfjkl, in this edit. The first user restored their close, which I have now reverted. They explained their closure here, but their explanation makes no sense, either... I am not sure the redirect is a good idea, and will comment on that in the thread (I'm not a regular on that page ao am not sure what the procedure is for deciding and closing), but whoever closes it should show a modicum of clue. --bonadea contributions talk 08:19, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry, you're right @Bonadea, thanks for catching that. Qwerfjkl is an experienced user and more experienced with that board than I am, so I trust their revert. Though, despite their re-opening of the request, they did not create the redirect, which leads me to believe they too may be on the fence. Unfortunately, as mentioned, that user who originally declined the request isn't very experienced, so they may not know all the things they should take into account or how to properly convey the rationale for their decision. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:50, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * (ec)Maybe the 'target' page is the better place for the discussion, especially if it's a thornier request than the typical redirect? Feel free to 'deny without prejudice' if it's going to clog up the AfC subpage unduly.  The "closer's" explanation seems to be the same as their original one, and I'm likewise unable to penetrate its meaning, if applicable.  Thanks for the your input, both!  109.255.211.6 (talk) 11:57, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @SpyridisioAnnis, please don't close requests without providing a clear reason, in line with Wikipedia's policies on redirects, and the comments above. As to the validity of the request, per 65.92's comment it seems ambiguous, so I'd say it should be declined. — Qwerfjkl  talk  15:24, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Accidental reversion
Sorry about that, tried to revert at the same time as you. I'll clean it up now, interface was running slowly and I clicked a bit too hastily. Reda ctyll  Talk page  16:27, 5 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Redactyll, not a problem. Edit conflicts and mistakes happen all the time. I appreciate you reaching out to clear it up, as I was confused and about to reach out myself! Hey man im josh (talk) 16:29, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Please check the talk page before draftifying
If you noticed, I moved the page to Grupo Herdez (the parent company) and was collecting sources to show its notability (t &#183; c)  buidhe  17:22, 5 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Oops, my bad! Sorry about that @Buidhe! I went to move it back and I see you've recreated the page. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:24, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thank you so much @BeanieFan11! This means a lot coming from you =) Hey man im josh (talk) 19:19, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Nomination of Cringe pop for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Cringe pop is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Cringe pop until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished. Python Drink (talk) 23:37, 6 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @Python Drink, why did you post this on my page? My only edit to that page was removing a parameter from the infobox based on a request at AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:23, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * yeah I know you're not a major contributor to the page but I just felt to call an experienced editor. Sorry if you felt disturbed &mdash; Python Drink (talk) 15:29, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * No problem @Python Drink, I understand you had good intentions. For future reference, the only requirement is to alert the page creator, but it's a good practice to alert major contributors (of which I was not one in this case). Again though, totally okay because I understand it was done in good faith. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:30, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

Privybst redirects
Hey man, I'm cleaning-up after who has been confirmed to be a sockpuppet of. I have been deleting some of their redirects per WP:G5, but I noticed that you added an RCAT to a lot of them. Normally adding a category to an article would not be considered a "substantial edit", but with redirects I can certainly see the case for it since there's not much else you can do with them. So I'll leave it up to you: is it okay with you if 's redirects that you edited are deleted per WP:G5 or would you prefer they are kept? -- Tavix ( talk ) 23:00, 8 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @Tavix I actually think that despite the user being a sock, the redirects they created that I reviewed were valid and should be kept. But I understand that some prefer to undo everything done by socks. If I understand right, it's to try to discourage socks. Hey man im josh (talk) 23:26, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, the idea is that if their contributions are deleted or rolled back, they will be less motivated to continue socking knowing that their contributions won't stick. Dolyn in particular has been prolific, check out their SPI page! -- Tavix  ( talk ) 23:44, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Tavix, based on their history I don't think deleting the redirects will deter them. As I said, I do believe the ones I reviewed to be valid. Hey man im josh (talk) 01:37, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Hey Can You Revert This?
I Have Found Out That You Switched My Review Of A Redirect From Declined To Accepted. You Got To Remove The Redirects And Then Change It To Declined SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 01:52, 9 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @SpyridisioAnnis why would I have to do that? Your decline reason was not a valid reason. It was a valid request. You're welcome to nominate the created redirects for deletion if you don't believe them to be valid. Hey man im josh (talk) 02:02, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * It WAS Invalid Because The User Who Requested This Put More Redirect Requests With The Same Name And That Counts As Vandalism SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 07:55, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @SpyridisioAnnis, I don't think you should be participating in that board if you believe that was vandalism. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:57, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Indian Ports Association
Hi Hey man im josh. Hope you are keeping well. I observe you had deleted this article as I was taking time to update it with content and reliable sources. Can I request you to restore it to continue editing it. I feel Its a good practice to give the editor an opportunity to edit before deletion. Thanking you in advance. Gardenkur (talk) 03:32, 8 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Gardenkur, you can request undeletion at WP:REFUND. For reference, I have no power to delete or restore articles, just to tag them for deletion for administrator review. I nominated the article for deletion based on it having been 6 months since the last edit. An admin then reviewed it and deleted the page. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:59, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi Hey man im josh. Thanks again for the prompt response. Gardenkur (talk) 15:18, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

I have unreviewed a page you curated
Hi, I'm Anaxial. I wanted to let you know that I saw the page you reviewed or created, Presbytini, and have marked it as unreviewed. If you have any questions, please ask them on my talk page. Thank you.

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Anaxial (talk) 16:08, 9 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @Anaxial, could you explain why you unreviewed the page and subsequently marked it as reviewed without any changes? Hey man im josh (talk) 17:32, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Certainly - I hit the wrong key on my computer. Anaxial (talk) 19:37, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Anaxial no problem. I've done it a few times myself so I understand how easy it is to do. Thanks for getting back to me. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:40, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Lambda Upsilon Lambda Page
There is information that someone maliciously put out, information that is in fact copywritten by my organization that i cant delete. Recently we have removed members from our organization that may have done this. The copywritten information belongs to La Unidad Latina Lambda Upsilon Lambda Fraternity INC. which as you can see by my email address i am part of in a leadership role. Is there a way to lock the page, and make the necessary updates? Gilnycortes (talk) 02:11, 13 October 2022 (UTC)


 * @Gilnycortes, there are quite a few sources in the content that you're trying to remove. With that said, you're best bet is probably to look towards Request for immediate removal of copyright violation. Hey man im josh (talk) 02:13, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

List of Mars Ravelo's Darna (2022 TV series) episodes
I noticed that you added a tag for this page that I update on weekdays. All sources used for the page are the best from the Internet. The sources for the ratings of each episodes are also reputable as it came from the official accounts of GMA (which is media giant and one of the biggest sources for information, news and entertainment in the Philippines), since they're the only once reporting for the ratings of each episodes.

Rest assured if there is any available reliable website links other than what they post on their official accounts, I will immediately replaced or add them respectively since I actively update the page almost everyday. Thank you. Loibird90 (talk) 01:50, 14 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Loibird90, you do have quite a few references on the page, but I added that tag because of the quality of many of those references. Of the 50 references, at least 43 of them are considered WP:unreliable sources. You have 41 Twitter references (see WP:RSPTwitter) and 2 YouTube references (WP:RSPYouTube), which are both considered to be unreliable sources. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:12, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

The two YouTube references is where the episodes are uploaded (permanent for cut/edited clips and short periods of time for full episodes.) which is stated in the lead.

The Twitter sources are used to track the daily ratings of the series as media outlets only make articles about ratings during pilot week, ending (or special episodes). If there's any other sources that can be used other than the Official Twitter accounts of GMA (one of the most reputable sources for news and information) who reports it daily during weekdays, the existing is either replaced or added as a second source or so. Loibird90 (talk) 15:50, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Reviewing G13s
Hi Josh, I noticed you sometimes review G13 eligible drafts. You may be already be aware but just in case, if you come across ones that seem to have some potential you can tag them with the promising draft template which will prevent deletion for at least another six months and place them in Category:Promising draft articles. There have been drafts I tagged improved by other editors and become articles. Another tip is if the subject is covered in another article, you can create redirects from the draft which maintains the history (blank then redirect). Also, thank you for all the work you do around here. I see you "around" quite often. S0091 (talk) 18:27, 14 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I wasn't aware of the promising draft template so thank you for bringing that to my attention. I've usually seen deletions pushed back by completing minor edits, but this adds a nice alternative.
 * Thanks for reaching out. I recognize you and I thought I'd take this opportunity to thank you for all that you do as well @S0091 =) Hey man im josh (talk) 18:31, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion notification.
Hey, sorry to bother you but I am pretty new to Wikipedia and I could use some help. I wrote a page on my user page because I was trying to figure out how to add links and stuff, and then almost immediately got a notification saying that it was going to get deleted. It is not my intention to actually post this page to Wikipedia, did I break the Wikipedia rules by having this article on my user page, and if so is there any way that I can just experiment with editing without breaking any rules? Mr.Shnickles (talk) 18:27, 14 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi @Mr.Shnickles please read through the user page guidelines paying specific attention to WP:UPNOT. If  what are you doing is within the acceptable guidelines, you can use your sandbox to practice editing. For example User:Mr.Shnickles/Sandbox (click on link, type something then publish to create the page). S0091 (talk) 18:36, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks . I removed the tag from your page since you wiped it/ As S0091 said, the best place for practicing is in your own personal sandbox. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:55, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

Mistaken original reviewer for Strike a pose
Hello, Hey man im josh! Under New pages patrol/Backlog drives/October 2022/Re-reviews, you have misidentified me as the original reviewer of Strike a pose. It was WaddlesJP13 who marked that page as reviewed, not me. So, please make the correction as soon as possible. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:12, 14 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Oh, but I did mark the redirect Strike a Pose (song) as reviewed. Listing the target page instead causes confusion. So, ignore the above message, then. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:16, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey @GeoffreyT2000, thanks for letting me know. Sorry about that. I've made the correction. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:48, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

"automatically reported by Huggle"
Maybe there are different versions of Huggle, or different settings to make AIV reports automatically, but when I get past level 4 on a user, it gives me a huge dialog box to look at all of the diffs from the user being reported, which I verify (and include in the report) before submitting it. jp×g 16:22, 17 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @JPxG, are you asking how to do this? I'm using Huggle version 3.4.10 build: 3880. Under System -> Options -> Warnings tab -> there's a box for "Automatically report users to AIV page". It's the 4th box from the top for me. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:35, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, I mean, you'd added that to my AIV report (I don't know if it was a script or something), but I do go over my reports before I send them ;^) jp×g 18:43, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Ohhhh!!! I understand now what you mean now and I can understand the confusion @JPxG.
 * I think there's an issue with Huggle detecting reports at WP:AIV that were created before the program was opened. It detects new reports for other users just fine, just seemingly not existing ones. So Huggle creates a new report and will usually end up combining duplicate reports. It doesn't happen too often, but unfortunately I'm not aware of a way to fix the issue. Luckily the worst that ends up happening is there's a duplicate report that the bot ends up handling.

The page creator of this doesn't match any of the names indicated by the speedy tag. Did you miss? - UtherSRG (talk) 01:28, 18 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @UtherSRG, I don't believe I missed. It was created by User:Lacipetom who was a sock of User:پارسا آملی. I believe I'm supposed to tag pages with the puppeteer and not the sock, which is what I believe I did. Any clarification would be appreciated, as I can't see the now deleted page to see how I tagged it. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:33, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Bob Whitcomb Racing moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Bob Whitcomb Racing, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:30, 19 September 2022 (UTC)

What's up with this? Created via AfC/R and then 5 minutes later tagged for deletion? - UtherSRG (talk) 00:06, 21 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @UtherSRG. I was looking over requests at WP:AFC/R and I realized, after having processed that request, it had been made by an IP associated with the LTA case at WP:HKGW. Given that the request related to Honk Kong geography and there were several other Hong Kong related requests from that IP in the same edit, I declined the remaining requests they had made . I wanted to deleted that redirect and update the request to declined based on LTA. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:12, 21 October 2022 (UTC)

Blue Dwarf Page Speedy Deletion
Josh, I don't understand why a Blue Dwarf forum page is not closely related to Wikipedia's goals, when Wikipedia contains pages for dozens of other obscure forums and provides links to them here: List of Internet forums. For example, how is a Blue Dwarf page any less related to Wikipedia's goals than the Dogster page: Dogster, which also has a link on Wikipedia's list of Internet forums? Gray453 (talk) 19:00, 19 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Gray453. I can't see the deleted page, so I can't exactly recall what was on the page but I nominated your page for deletion based on section U5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Were you attempting to create an article for Blue Dwarf? If so, it must not have appeared that way to be when I came across it. If the forum is notable there's no reason you can't go ahead and create a page for it if you so wish. If so, I'd advise you to create it a draft at Draft:Blue Dwarf. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:26, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Here is the text that I submitted (not including the links):
 * "Blue Dwarf is an Internet forum founded on the ideas surrounding the small Internet movement[1]. Those in the movement believe that the Internet should prioritize the needs of people at least as highly as those of corporations. This means the Internet should be providing a better experience for its users. Blue Dwarf has very few images, no advertising, and no tracking. This allows its pages to load quickly even on older computers and over slower Internet connections. The forum's use of a single Raspberry Pi 3 web server demonstrates that a simple, efficient website format and good software design can provide a positive user experience even on inexpensive low-power hardware. The forum tries to encourage a feeling of community while also supporting free speech. Users are expected to practice civility."
 * Are you saying you have no problem with me submitting it again? Should I rewrite it in some way to make it more consistent with the goals of Wikipedia? Gray453 (talk) 17:50, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey @Gray453. So long as you add reliable sources and create the page in a draft while it's a work in progress, instead of your userpage located at User:Gray453, I don't see why you won't be able to get a page published. You can submit a draft for review and the reviewers will tell you what needs to be fixed before it can be published. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:53, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks Josh. I'll do that. Gray453 (talk) 15:41, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna chime in here if you don't mind, Josh.
 * - Since the article you want is intended to belong in a list of similar articles, it would be good to read through some of them to see how what you have written above doesn't currently fit as an article, even if the topic would make a good article. Josh mentioned reliable sources; this is vital in helping to provide a neutral point of view. We're not here to create an article that has only the good stuff about a topic, but about all aspects. So if you find sources that criticize something the topic has done, sometimes those are the better sources to include or at least not shy away from. And yeah, hit this link Draft Blue Dwarf and paste your text there to start off. Good luck! We really are all routing for ya! - UtherSRG (talk) 18:02, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Empty categories
Hello, Hey man im josh,

One nightly task I have is to tag empty categories that appear on Database reports/Empty categories, Tonight, there are over 60 baseball template categories. You seem to have some connection to them. Do you expect them to remain empty for long? I don't want to tag them CSD C1 tonight if I'll just need to untag them tomorrow. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 01:11, 22 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Liz, that's funny timing. I'm finishing filling them all right now. Exactly 150 templates left to categorize with AWB as of this reply.
 * I didn't want to meatbot and overspam, then I had to step away, so it took a bit longer than initially expected. Sorry about that. Hey man im josh (talk) 01:15, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
 * All done! No more empty categories (that I created) =) Hey man im josh (talk) 02:04, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Early end of the backlog drive
A few days ago, new page patrollers got the backlog to zero. Due to the unprecedented success of the backlog drive, it will be ending early—at the end of 24 October, or in approximately two hours.

Barnstars will be awarded as soon as the coords can tally the results. Streak awards will be allocated based on the first three weeks of the drive, with the last three days being counted as part of week three.

Great work everyone! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:50, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Hi
Hello Josh, I hope you are well.

This is the first article I have ever tired to edit on Wikipedia.

I did not know I had to add sources but I am happy to do so. However my IP has been blocked for 2 years so I can no longer add the sources.

I also think it is very harsh to block me for two years because I thought I wanted to provide some interesting information that I think people would like to read. There was also nothing wrong with the content of my information that would warrant a two year ban due to the reason of me not providing any sources. 85.210.207.107 (talk) 15:10, 21 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @85.210.207.107. If you're editing now that means you're not blocked, which is a good sign. I encourage you to register an account and then, if your IP is blocked again, you can request an IP block exemption.
 * It's okay that you didn't know about adding sources, we all have to start somewhere, right? Start by adding reliable sources for content that you add to articles. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:15, 21 October 2022 (UTC)

Please help me to publish this on Wikipedia R.C. chaudhary poet (talk) 12:50, 25 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @R.C. chaudhary poet, I added a submission template to your draft so you can submit it for review. However, I have to warn you, it will get rejected based on its current formatting and lack of reliable sources. I encourage you to work on your draft further before submitting and to visit Tutorial to learn more about improving your article so that it would get accepted.

Isaac Tigrett
This is directly from Isaac Tigrett himself, in a conversation I personally had with him. I am Michael Feder, https://www.linkedin.com/in/mifeder/. This direct quote is unedited and reflects Mr. Tigretts true belief, and is also easily researched- NO charges or anything of the sort were ever filed against Sai Baba. So reporting gossip on Wikipedia seems pretty awful, especially given the hospitals and schools that were built by Sai Baba and the foundation...  Thanks. 72.193.102.161 (talk) 19:36, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

Question
Regarding the phrase "by suicide", is there evidence it's the prevailing phrasing? I ask because the "agenda" I was referring to was submitting to op-eds that "commit" is a stigmatizing phrase, which it isn't. If there's evidence that "by suicide" is the dominant phrasing I will of course let this go, I just need to push back if the reason you're pushing this phrasing is because it's considered preferable by a minority of certain political/philosophical thinkers. Let me know, I thought commit was more common but I could be wrong. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 18:04, 26 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @YouCanDoBetter, thanks for following up on the issue, it helped push me to be a bit better informed. See MOS:SUICIDE, both versions are accepted but there has been a push by many to switch to "died by". Some publications' style guides have begun to shift away from, or outright stop using, the phrase of "committed". I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, I won't stop a revert if you would like to restored your preferred version.
 * I think you're right about committed being more common, but both are acceptable and I think it may end up in the future that it becomes the default phrasing (though this is pure speculation and nothing related to policy). Hey man im josh (talk) 18:23, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the civility, I'm seeing "took his own life" as another option, would that be an acceptable compromise? YouCanDoBetter (talk) 18:33, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not seeing that phrasing at MOS:SUICIDE so I'm going to say that it would likely fall under WP:EUPHEMISM. As I mentioned, I was reverting it under the belief that "died by" was the preferred terminology, but I now see that's not necessarily the case. So you are free to add back "committed suicide", though your attempts at compromise are very much appreciate (and encouraged). Hey man im josh (talk) 18:37, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. I'll do more research and see if I can find anything definitive, until then I'll just leave it as is. I can tell you're coming from this sincerely, I appreciate it. Have a good one. YouCanDoBetter (talk) 18:43, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Question
Hello again Josh! I'm sorry to keep bugging you on your talk page (and at the risk of sounding dumb,) just wanted to see if you could help me with something.. If you look at my talk page, I have ClueBot III (I think that's what it's called,) archives my talk page every few weeks, and it looks like it's listing it by month.. Is there a way you can help me archive my talk page the way you have it? That way I can put MUCH more into one archive, rather than having so many listed with less content in each one. I appreciate your help, as always! :) SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 20:15, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Josh doesn't appear to use ClueBot III to archive their talk page but instead User:Lowercase sigmabot III. You can chekc either the code at the top of Josh's talk page here or my talk page for how to set it up to archive your talk page. Or you can also follow the instructions here. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:23, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah! Perfect, thanks ! I appreciate the help! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 20:25, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Hey @Spf121188, I had problems with auto archiving at first as well. I ended up just saying screw it and manually archiving for a while as a result. Recently I got sick of it and copied the code at the top of the page from an admin, I forget which one. But basically I set a page size limit and it auto archives based on that auto numbering them with a default naming system. If you have issues with it let me know, I'll help set it up for you (with appropriate edit summaries for any onlookers). Hey man im josh (talk) 02:04, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * At the risk of sounding stupid again lol... do you think you could lend me a hand with this? I'm not 100% confident in doing it correctly. Facepalm at myself lol 13:39, SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 13:39, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm able to help you out. Gimme just a sec. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:40, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Done. Some things might need to be changed so that the Cluebot archives are still shown however I don't know how to do that myself and the "archive how to" page for Sigmabot doesn't say anything about converting from Cluebot to sigmabot. I've left some instructions in hidden notes next to some of the parameters for you so that you know what to change if you want something to be different. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:52, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * , thank you for the help! :) I appreciate you both! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 13:53, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Spf121188, just so we're clear, are you looking to move existing archives (of months) instead numbered archived? Or just moving forward? Hey man im josh (talk) 13:54, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Yep! With the monthly list, it's going to be way too much, so I figure if it's numbered, like you and Blaze Wolf have, I could fit much more into one, if that makes sense. Thanks again!! SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 13:57, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * What are you going to do about your existing archives @Spf121188? Manually merge them? Hey man im josh (talk) 13:58, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Not gonna lie, I have zero idea how to do that... :( SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:00, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm sure there's some way for the existing archives to display in the archive header. I'll look at the template's documentation to see if it mentions anything about doing that. ― Blaze WolfTalk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 14:01, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Spf121188: Merge them into your new format, or try to link the old ones? It's up to you but we can help you either way. Personally I'd prefer to migrate the archived text to the new archive format and then CSD the old ones, but that's just me. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:02, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes! If they can be merged into the new format, that would be PERFECT. I'm sorry to cause so much trouble for you guys, but I REALLY do appreciate the help! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:04, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm just manually doing it at the moment. Can you confirm, before I go too far, that 150k is what you want your archive page limit to be? Or would you like it to be something else? Hey man im josh (talk) 14:07, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * That is perfect. Thank you again!!! SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:08, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I've added Archives by months to the header parameter and it seems to have added a Cluebot index for the monthly archives. I'll ask at WP:VPT or maybe WP:HD if there is a better alternative. ― <b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Blaze Wolf</b>Talk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 14:12, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Ahhh man. I was just going to take the easy way out and manually merge them all @Blaze Wolf. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:14, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * While that would work, it just creates a lot more work for us to do. What I've done seems to have worked by adding an "index" link. I might see if I can change that text to say "Cluebot archives" or something so that it can't be confused as an index for the Sigmabot archives. ― <b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Blaze Wolf</b>Talk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 14:16, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 * @Spf121188, would you like the indexed link that Blaze Wolf added, or would you prefer that they all be merged into your new format? Either way is fine with both of us, I just want us to make sure that we're doing things the way that fits your preference. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:17, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 * I literally was just searching through the archive header templates to find one that would work. I didn't even know that adding the template I did in the way I did would result in the index link. ― <b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Blaze Wolf</b>Talk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 14:21, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Alright, all done and merged together. @Spf121188, the "Index" part isn't going to disappear unless you nominate User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Spf121188 for deletion. If you leave it be it may end up causing some confusing, so I do encourage you to do so. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:36, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yepppp, I will do that! Also, I assume that it'll auto archive at this point? Just making sure :) SPF121188  (talk this way) (contribs) 14:38, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes it should. I didn't see us discussing it here, so I'll just mention it in case. The current auto archive timer is set to 7 days, so it's up to you whether this, and the page size maximum (currently set to 150k) are suitable for you. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:40, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The bot will auto archive it at around midnight UTC. That's really the main reason I used sigmabot over cluebot, Cluebot apparently doesn't have an exact time it'll archive. It'll just happen whenever. Sigmabot I know will archive my talk page if it needs to be archived at midnight UTC (around 6/7 PM CDT which is my timezone) ― <b style="background:#0d1125;color:#51aeff;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Blaze Wolf</b>Talk<sub title="Discord Username" style="margin-left:-22q;">Blaze Wolf#6545 14:51, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Re: Draft:Pankaj Choudhary (professor) et al.
Hi Hey man im josh -- I didn't intend to cast aspersions on anyone else's actions; sorry if it came over that way. I honestly don't know what's best to do with suboptimal submissions like Draft:Pankaj Choudhary (professor); I tend to like giving marginal articles the chance at AfD, but perhaps a quiet death in draftspace is the most economical answer. Cheers, Espresso Addict (talk) 13:21, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Espresso Addict, no problem at all, I figured it was probably a misunderstanding but I get a bit paranoid that I've done something wrong (and need to adjust how I handle things) sometimes.
 * I struggle with articles like those too. Technically it may meet some notability guideline, but is the person actually notable? It's a difficult thing for me because it's all about our interpretations of guidelines and said interpretation changes from person to person. I've found that discussing these situations in our NPP Discord to be helpful, but I usually leave borderline cases for our few most experienced reviewers. I agree with the idea of giving marginal articles a chance at AfD, as others may find or know something that I don't.
 * But yeah, no hard feelings at all, thanks for reaching out though, I appreciate it. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:28, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks so much @BoldLuis! It's very much appreciated =) Hey man im josh (talk) 14:55, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Some baklava for you!

 * Never tried the stuff, but thank you @Kingkong76om. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:54, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Hi sir Sorry for the trouble on Wikipedia to you, I'm new here,can you help me to know how can I save the page I created because it's nominated for deletion. Last time happened same but it remains same no one delete that so I thought it's okay to publish it. I mean when the tag will get removed

Please don't get angry by my questions 😶 Just curious to know Kingkong76om (talk) 15:24, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Kingkong76om, are you planning on improving it? You could copy the page to your sandbox. The sandbox is where test edits are meant to be done, but many people also create drafts of articles there as well. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:27, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * You can also ask questions to the general community, where there are more knowledgeable editors than myself, at Help desk. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:29, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

So if I make it in sandbox how I will know that it's ready to be in article space Kingkong76om (talk) 15:29, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Well we can add a template to it that would allow you to submit it to the Articles for Creation team when you feel its ready. They'll review the submission and either move it to the main article space or decline the submission and let you know what needs to be fixed before it's suitable for the main space. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:32, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

and in how many days my main article will get deleted after nomination. I have a question in my mind why it's not get deleted previously when it nominated for deletion? Kingkong76om (talk) 15:36, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Well usually article at Articles for deletion will be up for discussion for at least 7 days. This is to allow time for anybody who wants to chime in on the topic to do so. Once 7 days have passed, someone will close the discussion and the article will usually either be kept or deleted, though there are other options such as merge or redirect (but that won't apply in this case). Hey man im josh (talk) 15:38, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Okay I got thankyou sir Have a nice day.. I will practice more and collect more evidence to create a page Kingkong76om (talk) 15:41, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Creating awards table
Hey man, I am trying to create an awards table for a draft I took on for the article "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series (season 1)". I've been at it for over an hour and I can't seem to figure out how to start. Do you have any tips or anything that could help me? I really appreciate it. Randazzojj123 (talk) 18:51, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Randazzojj123, sorry for the late response. For future reference, you'll probably get quicker responses at WP:Help desk. As for creating the tables, you can find some information at Help:Table. Myy personal recommendation for a newer user would be to copy an existing table from another article and play around with it in your sandbox, as that help page can be a lot all at once. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:07, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I appreciate it, thanks! Randazzojj123 (talk) 15:00, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Page of interest to review
Hey @Hey man im josh, I've recently created a new page titled Ryan Y. Park — I think you would be interested in reviewing it.

Thanks so much for reviewing my articles, I get a kick out of seeing the notifications pop up no more than an hour after I create them! GuardianH (talk) 15:48, 3 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @GuardianH. Thank you for your interest in my interest! I usually focus on reviewing redirects over articles, but I do review some articles. A member of the NPP team will review the page. Given the backlog size, it shouldn't be too long. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:53, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:SMG4?
Hi Josh, was creating this orphan talk page a mistake or am I missing something? OhNo itsJamie Talk 16:51, 3 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Ohnoitsjamie, that's funny, I was writing up a message on your talk page when I received a notification for this comment.
 * There was a request at WP:AFC/R to create SMG4 as a redirect to List of unofficial Mario media, but unfortunately I'm unable to process it because the page is protected and requires template editor access or higher. I tried to accept the request using a script which automatically generates that as a talk page template, which lead me to finding out the page is protected. Would you be able to help us out with this, or should the link remain red? The request can be found here Hey man im josh (talk) 16:54, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ OhNo itsJamie Talk 16:58, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Hey man im josh (talk) 16:59, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Russian Red
Hi there, Please don't revert war with vandals again. It is completely pointless if they are an edit warring vandal, like they were, and makes a huge mess of the page history. Follow WP:BRI instead. Thanks, --Ferien (talk) 17:39, 3 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Ferien. Thank you for reaching out, I'm aware of the premise to not feed the trolls. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:50, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Wes Moore
Then how do I make the change correctly? Wes Moore is considered a Radical Leftist to everyone but Wikipedia and it's protector's plus Moore is regularly refered to as a Marxist by Fox News which is a reputable source. Thanks wesman Wesman419 (talk) 12:20, 7 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello @Wesman419, Fox News is only considered a reliable source for matters outside of science and politics, per WP:FOXNEWS. You'd have to find other reliable sources from WP:RSP that support your claim. Given the nature of the edit that you want to make, it may be better to take it to the article's talk page after you find better sources that support your claim. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:23, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

A request
At WT:AFC I probably should should have stepped back. I think it is best to let it to the discussion die because arguing with them just eggs them on so it just continues and like I was trying to express its not healthy. It is clear they they don't get it, maybe AGF or maybe they just like to argue. Either way its WP:IDHT or WP:CIR. My request of you is not to engage; not that you are wrong but I think it makes it worse all around. Not to mention your time is better spent doing the other things you do so well. I will not fault you either way. S0091 (talk) 22:37, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * @S0091, no you're right, they're just not picking up what I'm putting down. That was my last post on the topic with that user for all the reasons you mention. There's always a hope you can reach an understanding, by sometimes it just doesn't work out and we're better off moving on. Hey man im josh (talk) 04:03, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Sam Koch
Hi, regarding the Ravens coaching staff, see below the Ravens official news with header Sam Koch joins Ravens coaching staff. Sam Koch joins Ravens coaching staff after retirement Therefore kindly revert my edit to include team in the Roster please. Thanks... Ogün Eratalay <sup style="font-family:impact;font-size:x-small;color:black;">message  13:49, 9 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hey @Ertly, I was aware of that news. However, if someone is not listed on the Ravens' coaching staff then they aren't meant to be included on the template. Being a consultant is not the same as being part of the regular coaching staff. As an example, Koch may have only worked with the special teams during the offseason, or may only come in on occasion with no firm requirements. It happens fairly often where a former player is hired as a consultant and they don't actually do a lot of work.
 * PS. I saw that you had edited your comment to try to ping me. Editing a comment to include a ping template won't actually ping a user. I don't have a good explanation as to why it won't, but pings only work on new comments. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:59, 9 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the clarification, then I have to consult Ravens team why they hire someone and not include him on the roster :) Thanks... Ogün Eratalay <sup style="font-family:impact;font-size:x-small;color:black;">message  14:13, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @Ertly I think there are more consultants on teams than most of us realize. Sometimes they get hired on as full time coaching staff, other times they stay at the consultant level. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:16, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

US Highway redirects
Why did you repoint all of those redirects, like "US Highway 7", to the generic lists? That is an alternately styled name for "U.S. Highway 7", which differs only in the presence or absence of periods, and that is an alternate name for "U.S. Route 7". "U.S. Highway 7" redirects to "U.S. Route 7", so "US Highway 7" should too.  Imzadi 1979  →   02:40, 10 November 2022 (UTC)


 * @Imzadi1979, the ambiguous titles point to a location that appropriately disambiguates them instead of giving undue weight to a specific article. "Stylizaton" isn't really the case here. Frankly the U.S. Highway 7, and those in the same format, should also all point to disambiguation targets. Most in that format are over a decade old and, from my brief search, the redirects predate the lists that help to disambiguate the titles. The redirect targets weren't updated after the creation of the relevant lists, though they should be. I targeted those during WP:NPP reviewing. Hey man im josh (talk) 03:01, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * If the redirects were "US highway X", with a lower case, I would agree that they're ambiguous, but the capital in "US Highway X" tells me that we're dealing with a proper name. Your argument about potential ambiguity would also apply to "U.S. Route" and "US Route" as "route" and "highway" are synonyms. If a "US highway" is any highway in the United States, and thus ambiguous, then a "US route" is just as ambiguous.
 * But instead we have "US Highway" and "US Route", which are equivalent names for the components of the United States Numbered Highway System, and those highways have had the dual naming based on local parlance for the last 96 years, as of Friday's anniversary. (In a state that uses "State Route" in official names, like Ohio, they have "US Routes", and in Michigan where we have "state trunkline highways", we have "US Highways".)
 * In short, the dotless "US Highway" redirects should follow the dotted "U.S. Highway" redirects and point to the dotted "U.S. Route" articles.  Imzadi 1979  →   03:21, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @Imzadi1979: Alright, I'll make some time with AWB this morning to swap the redirect target for those pages. I always appreciate when an editor approaches a matter civility and gives a concise explanation. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:40, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅: I've changed all of the redirects by that user back to their original destination @Imzadi1979. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:05, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * , are you sure you don't want hatnotes for highway? AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 20:59, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
