Archiving my talkpage
Thanks, I take it as IAR in a friendly spirit as indicated by your edit summary. I had no idea the page length was problematic until BHaworth said so, but since the RfA nomination the comments on it have multiplied - someone templated me about it just as I was coming here. I had intended to re-evaluate the issue this morning local time, but was leaning towards implementing bot archiving, so I'll leave it. And try to figure out how to have my thematic DYK archive appear on the right under the archive box, or inside it. (Did I say I am inept with computers?) Yngvadottir (talk) 16:14, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

An interesting statistic you've unearthed
Like many others I suspect I hadn't realised there was an easy way to check what percentage of an editor's CSD tags were rejected. Interesting. Malleus Fatuorum 00:08, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, it's not the tool I want as it doesn't reliably measure CSD success, see Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Archive 215; now that Scottywong's a sysop he might be persuaded to build one to go with his AFD tool. Josh Parris 06:19, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Josh
I had noticed that the templates that I used to trial the bot are somewhat troublesome to use now the trail is over, they seem to mess up the page, I can revert the workspace used as a template, so that the approval page looks as it did at the time of approval, so that the templates don't need to be de-activated, would that be better ?

P.S. I do not mind at all to leave it the way that it is to illustrate my poor planning, for the trial to editors who may wish to view the approval, if that is the idea I'm cool with it. Penyulap  ☏  11:42, 6 April 2012 (UTC)


 * That would be preferable; it's better than mussing with an approved BRfA. Josh Parris 11:48, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Re: Sniff test
It doesn't double count. That said, the number is still surprisingly high - my best guess at the moment is it's used on a large number of non-article pages (although quite why it's used on that many I don't know). - Jarry1250 [Deliberation needed] 08:24, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Progressive pop


The article Progressive pop has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This article appears to be entirely original research. No source is offered that even mentions the genre and there seems a basic misunderstanding of what a genre is: commercial success does not make something a new genre.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Category for broken links template
Would it be possible for the template listing link issues to include a cleanup category? Some of those templates don't get addressed for a long time, so a cleanup category may be useful for editors to resolve the problem. Thank you. Regards, RJH (talk) 21:58, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

== Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shaun Phillips (director)

Hello Josh Parris,

I also do not agree with your comment that there were no sources listed previously that listed Shaun Phillips by name. That simply isn't true. More than a few do and others list his production company (Artistic Perspective Entertainemt) by name in the videos themselves (often in the final credit/copywrite info).

I am relatively new to creating articles for Wikipedia and a bit slow in learning how to respond to requests from other editors, so I hope I am responding all requests in a timely and correct manner. You have marked this article I created yesterday for speedy deletion due to lack of sources. I am going as fast as I can to improve it with better sources. I have updated it today with at least a half dozen new sources - ALL listing the article subject Shaun Phillips by name. Please reconsider your desire to have this article deleted and I will continue to try and locate even more credible sources in the coming days.

I also believe that Artistic Perspective Entertainment should not be deleted, but rather restored as it is a production company credited with producing 4 DVD's and two short films featuring known celebrity A-List talent that can be, and have been verified as true. I would like to have this entry restored as I attempt to improve it.

Any advise or other assistance you can provide would be appreciated.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bh1967 (talk • contribs) 13:32, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

July WMAU Melbourne Meetup
Hi, At last month's June meetup we discussed the idea of setting up a Training Course at a University of the Third Age (U3A) to be held in 2013 and named Becoming a Wikipedia editor. In order to get this course up and running we are calling for volunteers to help develop the idea, and either tutor part of the course, or provide one on one help to students in the class. All local Wikipedians are welcome to discuss this at our 11am meetup to be held this Sunday on 22 July. Please add your name to the attending list at Meetup/Melbourne 23. Food and beverages are provided. Would appreciate your input, Josh. Cuddy Wifter (talk) 04:26, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

Followup RFC to WP:RFC/AAT now in community feedback phase
Hello. As a participant in Requests for comment/Abortion article titles, you may wish to register an opinion on its followup RFC, Requests for comment/Abortion advocacy movement coverage, which is now in its community feedback phase. Please note that WP:RFC/AAMC is not simply a repeat of WP:RFC/AAT, and is attempting to achieve better results by asking a more narrowly-focused, policy-based question of the community. Assumptions based on the previous RFC should be discarded before participation, particularly the assumption that Wikipedia has or inherently needs to have articles covering generalized perspective on each side of abortion advocacy, and that what we are trying to do is come up with labels for that. Thanks! —chaos5023 20:29, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Talk:Disney Junior (French Canada)


Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Talk:Disney Junior (French Canada) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 20:22, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Copper extraction techniques
Thanks for the kitten, Josh.

The work is not yet complete. I will get back to it when I have more time.

I think the reference to the article being about historic techniques should be removed, as it was already incorrect and will be even more so by the time I have finished.ChrisFountain (talk) 01:58, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Bots/Requests for approval/Josvebot 5
I just want to double check with you about this bot approval. Are you sure that the operator has the necessary competence to operate this bot? I am little worried in this regard having read the discussions on the request page and the user's talkpage, in particular User talk:Josve05a. I note that this is not the user's own code and that you felt the need to make sure they had read WP:BOTPOL, so I'm guessing something gave you reason to doubt this. Do you think this user is ready to operate a bot on this project? Thanks, WJBscribe (talk) 15:48, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I certainly had concerns too, and you're not the first editor to express them. User:Josve05a's editing and interaction history indicates that he has behaved responsibly, in spite of his advertised age of 15. I expect of his various BRFAs only this one will get approved, and I don't see that much will go wrong with it.
 * The DEFAULTSORT problem is pretty easy to understand, and hard to screw up. Bear in mind, what he's running is software written by someone else and it has a history behind it, so unless he moves from past behaviour and goes badly off-reservation we're going to be fine; the same could be said of any editor.
 * I gave him a slightly harder time than normal, and he held up well.
 * Remember that bot accounts may only do those things for which they're approved; they don't have a license to do *anything* else.
 * In summary: in my judgement the op will be fine, and we have policies and procedures in place to deal with things if they're not. AGF; thus far it's been displayed in spades by the op. Josh Parris 20:03, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks Josh Parris for naming my name in this comment, so that I could get a notification and read this. - (t)  Josve05a  (c)  20:07, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Fair enough Josh, I defer to your judgment on this issue and what you say makes sense. I will flag the bot. WJBscribe (talk) 20:23, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

NationalRegisterBot
Any comments on the NationalRegisterBot request? I'm pretty confident in the code that I have, and I would be more than happy to show you some test cases... I just don't want to sift through all 10000 articles on the list in my user space to find five that match your requirements. That said, you mentioned that there may be a tool on the toolserver to find matches. Could you provide a link to that please? As I said at the bot request page, I could move those items to the front of the list to avoid reworking the code. I still think turning the current first five articles into temporary test cases (or possibly copying them into talk/user/non-mainspace and working with them there?) would suffice to show that the bot will perform as expected when those articles are encountered and will be less trouble than finding the needle-in-the-haystack five articles. I have freed up some time this upcoming weekend, so I would like to get something moving by then. Let me know. Thanks for your help with this whole bot thing!--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 05:10, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest
I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:34, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

John Wainwright Evans
Excellent. Thank you very kindly, Josh. I really appreciate your work on John Wainwright Evans. To be honest, I picked a notable topic for my Draft: namespace test and specifically made it very stubby to see if it would get deleted. I never imagined it would be expanded, let alone nom'd for DYK. So I thank you kindly for that. Great work. Thanks. 64.40.54.251 (talk) 03:38, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
 * I didn't plan on that, it just kind of happened. And it turns out if someone has written a lengthy obituary, or several, well it just writes itself.  I've been inspired, as this seems to be a rich vein of easy content.  And I only stayed up to 2am hunting down medal recipients!
 * Solar astronomy, on the other hand... what a.... yuck! Josh Parris 06:13, 19 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Josh. Yeah, Solar astronomy looks like part disambiguation, part definition and all bad. I might get inspired to fix it up later. Just wanted to add that I've appreciated many of your comments around the project. You're one of the more friendly and helpful people here. I've been feeling down about the project for a while, but was uplifted when the Draft: namespace went live I've been asking for something similar for years But that happiness didn't compare to how happy I felt when I saw how you improved the article. It really means a lot to me, so I just wanted to let you know you made my day year. Thanks very much. I appreciate it. 64.40.54.251 (talk) 07:49, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Molybdenum
I know you have an interest in mining because of your edits to the article on Mining. Inspired by a beautiful photo of synthetic bismuth that I found on Wikimedia Commons, I read the article on bismuth. I then proceeded to read articles on other elements. I'm now at Molybdenum. I noticed in the map of production in Molybdenum that the location of greatest production is in the United States, somewhere around Pennsylvania or West Virginia. However, that is not mentioned anywhere in the article. I'm wondering why. Also, that map itself is a bit out of date now. Do you know where a more up-to-date map could be found? CorinneSD (talk) 15:53, 12 April 2014 (UTC)


 * The map creator simply put the big dot on Washington DC rather than out west where the mines are. I've removed the image as confusing and outdated (9 year old data).

Hi Josh Parris. I am trying to cleanup User:AnomieBOT/Nobots Hall of Shame. Am I right to believe that I should remove all tags that are about WildBot? They are most probably outdated by now. -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:07, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Outline of the United States broken link section is outdated
Hi there,

I checked links listed as broken in Talk:Outline of the United Statesand they are all ok. Is it ok to delete this long list or you will do it yourself? There are some other links Outline of the United States that need fixing but not the once listed on Talk page. For example: International Politics of the United States. Please advice...

Broken links tool?
I tried the tool on Talk:Gemara, it didn't work and I ended up here. Is it down temporarily? --Dweller (talk) 12:15, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
