Album sorting
Please take a look E.g. see Category:2000s remix albums. These are sorted in a haphazard and random order: 2004, 2006, 2005, 2003, 2009, 2001, 2002, 2000, 2008, and 2007 in that order. They were sorted correctly before you added year by category. The same thing is happening in Category:2000s soundtracks. Please fix this at your earliest convenience, or else I will simply revert your additions. Thank you for your assistance. If you need to respond, please do so on my talk. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 08:31, 4 October 2010 (UTC) Well they sort OK now with both of the two main categories outside the template, except that "2000s in live albums" etc must also be included as the template subcategory to stop these subcategories appearing in the base year category eg "2009" Hugo999 (talk) 09:41, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

1871 election
Hi John, I've published the next lot of parliamentary articles (5th to 10th) and have now started compiling the election results. That will of course result in a few redlinks. Are you keen to turn them blue? If so, I'll post the electorate pages here that contain those redlinks. Here we go:  Schwede 66  09:49, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Mongonui (New Zealand electorate) (McLeod, John William Williams, John Lundon)
 * Parnell (New Zealand electorate) (1x)
 * East Coast (New Zealand electorate) (George Read (New Zealand politician), George Morris (New Zealand politician), Allan MacDonald (New Zealand politician), Samuel Locke (New Zealand politician), Andrew Graham (politician), Alexander Creighton Arthur )
 * Heathcote (New Zealand electorate) (James Fisher (politician), William Wynn-Williams)
 * Patea (New Zealand electorate) (Frederick Haselden)
 * Roslyn (New Zealand electorate) (Archibald Hilson Ross)
 * Dunedin South (James Gore)
 * Well you have been busy Hugo999 (talk) 23:37, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, have done quite a bit. I've requested a page move for John McLeod (politician) (a Canadian politician), so that ambiguity with John McLeod (New Zealand politician) can be minimised. If you could do that page next, it might help that discussion.  Schwede 66  22:21, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Will do some more in the Weekend. PS Were you "All Shook Up" in Christchurch? Hugo999 (talk) 21:39, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Appreciate your help! Well, the earthquake was a goodie, no sleeping through that one. But listening to the media in the first week gave you the impression that Chch is flattened and we are all about to die of Cholera. Far from it. Haven't suffered any damage at home (new house, but all the old houses around us have at least lost their chimneys) or in the office (other than the fact that the CBD was closed and we couldn't get to it. Life's back to normal for most of us, but some people have had considerable losses. Luckily not me.  Schwede 66  23:16, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Also added some 19c MPs for Selwyn (NZ electorate) and Tauranga (NZ electorate) - Hugo999 (talk) 11:43, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Senate elections category
When you add "Category:United States Senate elections, 1920", please REMOVE both Category:1920 elections in the United States and Category:United States Senate elections, because they are redundant. This applies to all Senate years categories. Otherwise, Category:United States Senate elections will have over 100 Subcategories AND over 100 Pages, which makes no sense. Thanks.—Markles 14:06, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
 * See this change. Do you think we should do it that way, instead?  I'm just trying to be consistent.—Markles  12:04, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
 * For the 1958 page, the idea was to include "|1958" so that the page would sort in sequence with all the other pages (between 1957 & 1959) rather than at the beginning of the sequence. I added to the senate elections by year category by filling in some gaps in the 1920s and 1930s plus some c1910 ones, so have no intention of going back further. I think it is reasonably common (but not universal) for a main category to include the lead article from each subcategory eg "Health by Country" could include subcat "Health in Australia" and main article "Health in Australia" but not all the articles. So for Category:2000 elections in the United States all the articles are in subcategories for type/state except for general articles. Including the general articles on 2000 senate and gubernatioral elections in the main 2000 category as well as the subcategory makes all general articles obvious to anyone looking at the main category, so they know that there are 3 articles for that year not just United States elections, 2000 - though the others are listed on the main article as well Hugo999 (talk) 12:40, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Roy Jack & Waimarino
Hello John, haven't been in touch in a while. I hope you are well. Could you please have a look in Wilson whether Roy Jack retired from Waimarino in 1972, or whether the electorate was abolished in 1975. One of those articles isn't right at the moment.  Schwede 66  03:15, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I think Roy Jack (see his talk page) would have been elected MP for Waimarino in the general election on 25.11.72, and Wilson made a mistake in his dates for Jack, but would need to check the 1972 election results Hugo999 (talk) 11:37, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Confirmed that Roy Jack was elected MP for Rangitikei (NZ electorate) in the New Zealand general election, 1972 on 25 November, with an election-night majority of 2067 (down from Shelton's 1969 majority of 4214). From Dominion of 27 Nov 1972. Hugo999 (talk) 01:41, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Alfred Ainger
The category English hymnwriters has been added here but some evidence would be needed to support it. "According to this Cyber Hymnal Arthur Campbell Ainger is the hymn writer. English Hymnal (1907) gives A. C. Ainger as author of nos. 548 & 559." An earlier version of the article attributed hymns to Alfred without a reference.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 21:29, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes the claim that he wrote a hymn "God is working his purpose out" in the New English Hymnal was removed in Dec 2009 but not the category as a "Hymn writer" which I subsequently altered to "English hymn writer", so I will remove it. Hugo999 (talk) 21:43, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. ''Maybe you have this as a setting in preferences, if so, would you please remove it? Thanks.''

Battle of Chongju (1950) and Articles that may contain original research from December 2010
Hello Hugo999. This is a bit of a long shot but I was hoping you might be able to assist me with an query I have. I have recently rewritten the article Battle of Chongju (1950) and have noticed that it is part of a couple of hidden categories, including Articles that may contain original research from December 2010. I don't know too much about hidden categories and given that you were the only user that editted the article in question in December 2010 I was wondering if you knew something about it. If you do: specifically what issue/s are there that need to be fixed (if I haven't already done so following my rewrite) and also how does one remove the article from the category in question once the issue has been resolved? Many thanks in advance. Anotherclown (talk) 04:50, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Clinton Engineer Works
Hi. I see that you have created the article Clinton Engineer Works and have revised the existing articles about Oak Ridge, Tennessee, the various associated facilities. Since you apparently are in New Zealand, perhaps you are not aware that what was called "Clinton Engineer Works" during World War II is one and the same as Oak Ridge. The way you wrote the articles, it appears that you have gotten the impression that they are different. I hope that you will not be upset when I make some changes to clarify the situation, since I live and work in Oak Ridge and happen to know a fair amount about this place. --Orlady (talk) 02:26, 1 February 2011 (UTC) Re Clinton Engineer Works, Nichols does use both terms - CEW or Oak Ridge, though sometimes using Oak Ridge for the residential part? Did the AEC have a new name for CEW when they took over in 1947 or just Oak Ridge?

Categories
Would you mind creating the categories before you place articles in them? Doing it this way is likely to end up with you reverted if someone checks their watchlist, as it looks like a poor edit before you create the category (as redlinked categories are against MOS.) Courcelles 03:58, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Creating year by year as you propose would be too time-consuming, as there are up to four possible categories per year when seperating Murders by Year from Crimes by Year. Eg Murder in 1955, plus Mass Murder in 1955, 1955 murders in the United States, and 1955 crimes in the United States. Apart from Murders by year, the other categories are not required for every year. It is quicker to alter the pages when read rather than going back a second time to alter the category, and to create several of one category eg 1954 murders in the United States and 1955 murders in the United States at one time. The categories would be “Red” for less than an hour. Besides; creating (briefly) empty categories as proposed could lead to complaints. NB: I have created “Years in” categories for a number of pages where the article author has not bothered to create the necessary category. Hugo999 (talk) 00:15, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Evelyn Patuawa-Nathan
Hi there, I see that you created an article on Evelyn Patuawa-Nathan last year. It is currently listed as being unreferenced, which is violation of our biographies of living people policy. The two links in the article are probably not good enough, as they are by a bookshop, and probably originally from the blurb on the book back/inside cover, the other one is an open library that cannot be considered a reliable source, as the page was created by an anonymous user. She sounds like she may be notable enough, as one of the first maori writers, but unless significant coverage of this fact can be found in independent reliable sources to satisfy the notability guideline, I think the article should be deleted. As you are a very experienced editor, I'm not going to nominate for deletion it until you've had a chance to either save it or consider if it does really belong here. Regards, The-Pope (talk) 12:40, 25 March 2011 (UTC) Re Evelyn Patuawa-Nathan and “Opening Doors” I will have to look at a library copy of the book next week as I do not own a copy, and also look for reviews at the same time.

Failure to leave an edit summary is one trick used by vandals to try to avoid scrutiny. It doesn't work as a lack of an edit summary generally means that I will look to see what has been done.

Jail v. prison in the United States
I noticed that you recently added several former jails to prison categories (e.g. Mosby Tavern). As a New Zealander, perhaps you aren't aware that in the United States, "jail" and "prison" have distinct meanings: In the United States...jails are county or city administrated institutions which house both inmates awaiting trial on the local level and convicted misdemeanants serving a term of one year or less, while prisons are state or federal facilities housing those awaiting trial on the state or federal level and convicted felons serving a term of more than one year. (from "Prison") So, in this case, it's not appropriate to add a (current or former) jail to a category for prisons, and vice versa, at least when the category is US-specific. Thanks, cmadler (talk) 12:25, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I've moved the articles in question from Category:Prisons on the National Register of Historic Places to Category:Jails on the National Register of Historic Places. Thanks, cmadler (talk) 12:40, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

I am fine with a US subcategory (rather than titling the US category "Prisons and Jails"); I suppose "prisons" includes "penitentaries" one of the five (?) current Federal categories. Hugo999 (talk) 12:50, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, all of the federal categories are considered types of "prisons", as evidenced by the agency name, the Federal Bureau of Prisons. I can only surmise that the variety of US terms for places to imprison people are a result of focal vocabulary (like the legendary scores of Eskimo words for snow) due to our absurd rate of incarceration. cmadler (talk) 14:08, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Re:people from categories
Sorry to bother you, but having read this I have a question. Until I created an article for Jo Good I hadn't come across this situation before, so created the relevant category. Consequently, how would we categorise a biography of someone who happens to have been born in a particular country because their parents were working/stationed there, but who is not a national of that country? It seems to me that the people in the category just happen to have been born in Kuwait, but are not strictly Kuwaiti people because their descendants are not from that country. Can you help? BTW, I have no objection to the category being deleted, but am just interested in how to approach this for future reference. Cheers TheRetroGuy (talk) 16:06, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Categories
I noticed you have modified or added categories to places in Dublin. These places are in Dublin city, not in what was "County Dublin". In fact County Dublin no longer exists, except in sport and in historical references. The category should relate to Dublin city. Hohenloh  + 15:12, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The new category Category:Cemeteries in County Dublin follows Category:Buildings and structures in County Dublin and other subcategories of Category:County Dublin which is shown as one of 26 counties of the Republic. If the top subcategory should now be 8 regions including the Dublin Region, then a major reorganisation (by Project Ireland?) is needed. Some of the cemeteries eg Donnybrook Cemetery appear to be beyond the boundaries of Dublin city. Hugo999 (talk) 04:45, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Additions to Anzac class frigate
Thanks for all the content you've added to Anzac class frigate. However, can I be a pain and ask you to change the Bassett information from a single cite at the end to per-sentance citing? I imagine that as the article develops, the information is going to get mixed around and be interspersed with other content, and it'll make it easier to track what cites what. Thanks in advance! -- saberwyn 23:45, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
 * As I do not have Bassett’s book to hand (copy from library), additions etc are not possible at the moment. Anyway we will see if there is any interest in adding to or rewriting the section. Hugo999 (talk) 04:51, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

New categories
Have you considered OVERCAT? Have all these new categories you've created gone through the approval process, or did you just create them on a whim? The rule of thumb for a new subcat is 60 subjects. Ng.j (talk) 10:57, 9 August 2011 (UTC) .
 * Where is this "recommended" figure of 60 per subcategory from? Often a subcategory with few articles is part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme. This applies particularly for “by country” or “by year” categories, and many small countries frequently have only one or two articles for a given year eg Category:2006 in Niue. While America currently has about 30 or 40 articles per year, someone is adding a category by year for each state eg Category:2006 in Nebraska which I think is overcategorization.

Sucession categories
You may want to consider using CatSucceeding in lieu of Catrel in year series categories. Vegaswikian (talk) 05:07, 1 November 2011 (UTC) Had not thought of that, although most sequences are in pairs, eg 19th & 21st cenruries. Perhaps at the end for the 21st to 20th century, but generally no point in anticipating the 22nd century! Hugo999 (talk) 00:10, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Military Brat
Hi, you added a section to the article Military Brat. I think the content you added is more suitable for these two articles: --lTopGunl (talk) 05:31, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * List of military brats
 * List of fictional military brats

Re Military brats, my addition was not just to mention certain “military brats” (real or fictional) but to point out a certain British type (sons of officers) that did not follow their parents overseas but that were sent to Britain for education, and did not see their parents or father for years Hugo999 (talk) 06:44, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, that category has a section List_of_military_brats in the List of military brats article for that specific purpose. The Military Brat article rather explains the subculture itself. If you consider your addition even more specific, consider creating a subsection of the same under List_of_military_brats. I'll also like to point out that your content is uncited yet. --lTopGunl (talk) 06:51, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Clevedon, Hobson
Hello John,

I hope all's well in your neck of the woods. When you've got a moment, could you please consult Wilson regarding Clevedon (New Zealand electorate)? It says in the article that it "was first created in 2002", but Warren Kyd apparently represented it from 1987–1993.

There's a similar problem with Hobson (New Zealand electorate), where the article says that it went out of existence in 1978, but Ross Meurant apparently represented it from 1987–1996.

Always appreciate your help!  Schwede 66  18:29, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Will look up re the Clevedon and Hobson electorates, but both reference books are before the time in question for Clevedon, Wood should help for Hobson. Hugo999 (talk) 22:23, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ron Peters


The article Ron Peters has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Mattlore (talk) 02:08, 3 December 2011 (UTC)


 * It is not an article but a redirect to his brother's page (Ian Peters) where he is mentioned Hugo999 (talk) 02:12, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Sundridge Aerodrome
I'm about to restore the category "airfield": it was never a port, only a flying field. "Aerodrome" is the phrase used in the source document, another word for airfield. All the best. --Old Moonraker (talk) 09:16, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Afterthought: There actually weren't any airports until 1919: see Croydon Airport for more. --Old Moonraker (talk) 09:23, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

16:34, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Fine if you want to change it back, although it appears to be the only Airfield in England in the Category:Airfields apart from military airfields; the category appears to be mainly military airfields not basic (civilian) airfields and overlaps with Category:Military airbases. And there is no link from Sundridge, Kent to any geographic Aviation or Airport category for England. That is why military airfield categories link to airport categories eg Category:Airfields of the United States Army Air Forces in Alaska links to an Alaskan category, Category:Airports in Alaska.

Categorisation of RAF airfields
