Hello Linguist,

C.Fred rejected the entry originally because I neglected to provide sources.

Could you please explain why you changed: On January 21st, 2016, Kitty Brucknell moved from London to Los Angeles to Brucknell currently lives in Los Angeles.

The latter does not indicate a timeframe. That's why I included the date.

Also, why is the first name omitted?

Thanks,

AfD: Lenox Tillman
Sorry if I'm doing the wrong thing here, but I just nominated the page Lenox Tillman for deletion, but I forgot to add an edit summary while creating the deletion discussion. Could someone please add "Creating deletion discussion for Lenox Tillman" to the edit summary? Thanks in advance.

 * No one has any enhanced ability to add an edit summary over what you can do yourself. What you can do is make a dummy edit (adding an extra space is my got-to; it makes no change to the saved page's rendered text) and leave an edit summary.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:37, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Antonia and Gina
Why are the flags of Burgenland and Lower Autria under the names of these both? Burgenland and Lower Austria is in Austria. We only do it for Ntm franchises like Asias next topmodel, because there are many States in one Ntm franchise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DDKay (talk • contribs) 17:56, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Because the contestants of cycle 4 represented their states. In Wikipedia's Manual of Style on icons, it says, Flag icons may be relevant in some subject areas, where the subject actually represents that country, government, or nationality – such as military units, government officials, or national sports teams. You can read more about the use of flag icons at MOS:FLAG. Linguist 111 talk 18:03, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

Austria's Next Top Model Flags
You are placing flags on the Austria's Next Top Model article because the contestants were representing states, but removed them here (where the contestants were representing countries)? I'm not sure how that follows. It seems like an inconsistent use of the flags to me.

 * I don't think the contestants of Top Model po-russki (cycle 5) actually represented their countries, I think it's just simply where they came from. That cycle accepted girls from any country as long as they had legitimate Russian roots. Linguist 111 talk 20:41, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Scandinavia's Next Top Model summary table
I agree that tables should be kept consistent to each other, but the format of this show itself was vastly different from most other versions. That in itself demands that information be presented differently for a better understanding of the show. It's a bit more information yes, but the presentation of the table (airtade, cycle, winner, runner-up, contestants, number of contestants, destination) is exactly the same. What's not consistent? 2601:241:0:EA46:78D4:88EE:F3A6:47A1 (talk) 18:03, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
 * First off, I appreciate you trying to help, but your modification to the table has disrupted the format of the page. It's far too stretched. Also, there are some things that make it not consistent with the other tables. Here is the mostly used format of the table:

* If necessary

While the other table lists the eliminated contestants in order of placement highest to lowest instead of lowest to highest etc. Also, only the three finalists from each country should be included because they were the only ones that competed in the final merged competition. I put the tables in the format that they are in the Swedish Wikipedia article because I had written a section on each cycle (since the cycles didn't have their own individual articles), so they were the same as e.g. the cycle summary at America's Next Top Model, which has just one table for all the cycles. Linguist 111 talk 18:18, 1 May 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure I agree. Like I said, the information is exactly the same. It's just the division of the 'other contestants' section that is different. The contestants on the table are listed in elimination from lowest to highest. The addition of all the contestants in no way takes away from the validity or accuracy of the information. I'm having a very hard time understanding your logic. 2601:241:0:EA46:78D4:88EE:F3A6:47A1 (talk) 18:25, 1 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Oops, sorry, I forgot they were listed from lowest to highest. Anyway, I don't see how we can modify the table yet. If we're going to have the table uniform with all the others, only the three finalists from each country should be included because they were the only ones that competed in the final merged competition. Also, per WP:BRD, please do not continue to change the table back until we reach a consensus. Linguist 111 talk 18:37, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

I have reverted you so please do not do this again. One may expect a French newspaper to spell the name with an acute accent, but the British press did not do this, so it is appropriate for that to be reflected in the article.

Reply to edits made for Asia's Next Top Model
Regards, linguist. Thanks for your keen interest in the topic. With regards to ANTM 8 edits, I believe at the time, there was differing opinion regarding Renee's last name during the show because of the maiden name vs. married name debate, but eventually they kept her married name because she was married during the show's filming (I believe; it was a very long time ago).

As for the others, to the best of my memory, Stacy Ann's argument is the same as above, and as for Isis and Jessica, we went with their new chosen official identities, though their individual pages may explore further into their history.

As for things being "redundant" and "superfluous", my apologies because I actually briefly lumped up many pointers together. Yes, you are correct there's no strict ruling against middle names. However, technical redundancy may be (1) certain names may unnecessarily expand the width of the page (like in the case of Jessica), (2) middle names are not customary in East Asian societies, hence not culturally reflective, and (3) middle names, unlike nicknames given on the show, do not appear anywhere else in the article or the show, except for a purposefully sourced external reference to prove otherwise, and (4) we could possibly go down a slippery slope in terms of name structure convention, since for e.g. Malaysia or Indonesia, "surnames" could technically go on forever; you just need to keep listing down the names of their ancestors, but it's customary to stop at just a two or three-worded name. With these reasons I deleted your contributions and tried to Romanize the "Asian" names.

Feel free to revert my edits if you feel the need is justified, and you are not convinced of the above reasons, because I have not edited extensively in a long time and I don't see the need to start a specific discussion thread on this matter. Cheers! ZephyrWind (talk) 15:34, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Your new signature :)
Hi there, How are you?

I just wanted to let you know that your new signature is really long. At UAA your comments are shorter than your signature. Purpose of signature is to identify the contributor but your signature is eclipsing the comment that you are making. I would recommend you to shorten your signature. Since you requested to ping 46 times on UAA page, I am pinging you @Linguist111:. :) Regards. Hitro  talk 20:04, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

UAA
I'd like to make a friendly suggestion related to your reports at WP:UAA. Since UAA is normally quite backlogged, it is best to stick with reporting usernames that are most problematic. I notice that you have reported many users with obviously promotional usernames but that have never edited. Since there are a surprisingly large number of accounts that are created but never used, I think these ones can be safely ignored until they actually do edit. In fact, the username policy says, "A user who both adopts a promotional username and also engages in inappropriately promotional behaviors in articles about the company, group, or product, can be blocked". Therefore accounts that have never edited technically shouldn't be blocked yet (although they typically are, if reported). I think refraining from reporting these usernames will help us admins that patrol UAA and keep the backlog smaller. Regards, -- Ed (Edgar181) 16:31, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @Edgar181: Thank you for letting me know, from now on I won't report users unless they spam, vandalize etc. Linguist 111 talk 16:45, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * My advice to you would be to stick to reporting names with offensive language. With promotional sounding names you must be careful, as they may sound promotional but that may not truly be the case. Wait to see if they make promotional edits (creating an article with the exact same name as the user is one to look out for) or conflict of interest editing. Thanks, -- PatientZero talk  16:33, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay, will do. Linguist 111 talk 16:38, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

Question?
I wasn't being uncivil in my request. I was just asking oshwah to please communicate with me about a problem. I have never edited on wiki and I got a message saying I did using MY IP. The user oshwah is using it against my permission. I believe I have a right to request him to stop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.111.97.142 (talk) 18:15, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Accusing somebody of sock puppetry (using multiple accounts or edited while logged out for illegitimate purposes) without providing evidence is a personal attack. According to the contributions history for your IP address, it has only made one edit (besides those you made today), dated December 2015, which was the edit Oshwah placed a warning on your IP's talk page for. If you did not make that edit, this probably means your IP is a shared one. You may wish to create an account to avoid further irrelevant notices. Regards, Linguist 111 talk 18:31, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't have a shared IP, it's a personal IP. I was trying to tell him someone did it by my IP. If he didn't do it, how can I rectify it w/o creating an acct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.111.97.142 (talk) 00:31, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure how to answer that. Most likely your IP is shared, if somebody else edited under it. Other than that I wouldn't worry about it, I don't think there's anything you can do about it. Creating an account is not mandatory, but it is useful and comes with many privileges that aren't available to those who edit under IPs. Linguist 111 talk 06:34, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Zara Larsson
The primary source, which I am utilizing, quotes her, proclaiming herself as a "man hater."

To pass these comments off as "feminist" is slanderous to actual feminism, and is tantamount to labeling "all conservatives should die in a fire" as a "liberal comment." Her comments have nothing to do with feminism, and express open hatred and bigotry towards one half of the human population.

The article, as written, portrays the situation as her receiving death threats on account of espousing feminism, as opposed to absolute, flagrant, incendiary hate speech, which is precisely what it was. --Mrv3rsac3 (talk) 21:10, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia has a very strict policy about contentious material about living persons. If not sourced properly, it could be viewed as defamatory or libelous. The tweet is not suitable as a source for the content describing her as a "man-hater", as it is a primary source with little detail. Also, the term "man-hater" isn't very encyclopedic. For the record, this "man-hating" stuff is described in these articles, , , and by her on her website. Basically she says she hates the "patriarchal society" and "macho culture", and how men in groups "oppress and threaten". As far as misandry is concerned, the above doesn't strike me as misandry, which is an irrational hate of the male gender. Again, it's important to be careful when using terms like "misandrist" to describe a person, as, without proper sourcing, this can be viewed as defamatory. If you disagree with what I'm saying, feel free to open a discussion on the talk page and voice your opinions there, but please make sure that you can back up the "misandry" claim with reliable sources. I myself have found none that say she is a misandrist.  Linguist 111 talk 06:26, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
 * She states that she hates men, that is misandry as clear as it gets..

--194.213.120.14 (talk) 20:54, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * To me that seems to be personal interpretation. But anyhow, generally speaking, it's not a good idea to write that someone is a "misandrist", regardless of whether there are reliable sources to back it up or not. Linguist 111 talk 21:54, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * FYI: RFPP: Zara Larsson BTW: IPs don't see wp:pings Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 09:25, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Its not a statement that she is a misandrist, just that she has had statement that is misandry.--194.213.120.14 (talk) 05:33, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
 * "Misandry" and terms related to it are pretty strong, technical, and controversial terms, so using them in articles, especially biographies of living persons, is risky, because their use in articles may reflect a personal interpretation that readers may not share. And using personal tweets as a source—even worse. Another option is to include the "man-hater" version, but this is also not a good idea, because (A) this term isn't very encyclopaedic, (B) it is too vague and doesn't reflect what is really meant by it (which is described in the articles and Larsson's website that I posted in response to Mrv3rsac3 above) and (C) it may mislead readers, as it may be viewed as a synonym for "misandrist". What I think would be a better idea, if we are to include this "man-hating" stuff at all, is to describe in detail, using what is written in the articles, what is specifically meant by the "man-hating" thing.

Mysteriously moving parameters
I noticed your edit summary Don't know what I'm doing to make these parameters move. That is a Visual Editor bug feature. VE often pointlessly scrambles the order of template parameters. A number of people have complained to the Wikimedia Foundation about this issue, but the Foundation has been rather disinterested in fixing it. Most of the complaints probably come from Wikitext-editors, but the Foundation may pay more attention if VE-editors complain that it's confusing and troublesome. The Foundation actively invites feedback about VE problems. You can comment at VisualEditor/Feedback if you'd like to see it fixed. Alsee (talk) 02:38, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

hello, please i need you to showme how to reference sites on my wikipedoa article. thanks Kelvinsage1 (talk) 12:52, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Hello, Kelvinsage1. In response to your questions, your account is more than four days old and you have made more than ten edits from it, so yes, your account is autoconfirmed. As far as references go, I see that your article, Oma Marilyn Anona, is about a living person, so you have to be careful about what you write and back up all info, especially controversial info, with reliable sources. Do not add any original research or controversial information about living people to an article unless you can back it up with a reliable source. Reliable sources include academic journals, works published by field experts, and reputable media. Avoid using unreliable sources like social networking sites or tabloid journals. To add a reference to an article, like this, you can either:  (1) Go to your article and click "Edit" at the top of the page. Click the end of the statement you want to add a reference to. A toolbar should have appeared near the top of the page, underneath the "Article", "Talk", "Read", "Edit", "Edit source" and "View history" buttons. Click the button which says "Cite". A box should appear with three tabs, "Automatic", "Manual" and "Re-use".  If your source is a simple URL and you want to insert it automatically, click "Automatic" and add the URL in the box which says "e.g. http://www.example.com" , then click "Generate". Click "Save page", describe your changes in the edit summary, then click "Save page" to save your changes.  If you want to insert your source manually, or if it is e.g. a newspaper article, click "Manual" and go to "Website", "Book", "News" or "Journal", depending on which one of those your source is. This should open another box containing a template with a number of parameters, such as "URL", "Source title", "Last name" and "First name". When you click on a parameter, an information icon should appear above it on the right; you can click on it to see what you should put in the parameter. After filling in the template, click "Insert" at the top of the box, then save your changes.  If you want to re-use a reference that is already present in the article, click on "Re-use" and simply select the reference you want to re-use. Save your changes.  (2) Click on "Edit source". This should open the article in its "source" form. Click the end of the statement you want to add a reference to, go to "Cite", click the drop-down "Templates" box, select the appropriate template and fill in the parameters per the instructions in (1). Click "Insert", add your edit summary in the grey box at the bottom of the page, then save your changes by clicking "Save page".  Hope this helps. You're welcome to use my talk page to test adding references, just don't modify the closed discussions, others' comments or any of the stuff at the top of the page. Good luck :)  Linguist 111  Who, me?  Who? Me   14:14, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi Linguist111. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3ALinguist111 enabled] rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Widr (talk) 20:41, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.

Milos Sarcev
Hi I am referring to the message you sent me regarding Milos Sarcev. It is of great importance the references to synthol and my wife are removed! As well the reference to the film as it is irrelevant!!

This has to be removed from the page: He was married to fitness competitor and actress Ursula Sarcev until they divorced in 1997.[citation needed] Šarčev nearly died when he struck a vein in one of his triceps while injecting Synthol, a popular site enhancement oil.[2] As of 2011, Šarčev is shooting the documentary film Get Big, Get Cut produced and directed by Alex Ardenti of Ardenti Films.

As well I want to update my stats if possible, as they are wrong.

Why are you changing all outcomes of the contestants to what you have now. It looked way better than what you have changed it to now. Put them back. Or I will myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.128.248.182 (talk) 00:03, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not changing any of the information. I'm just slightly changing the format of the tables so it's easier to see who got which placement and to get rid of the clutter caused by all the "Entered in..."/"Returned in..." and "Eliminated outside of judging panel in...".

Your MfD proposal
Hi Linguist. I've noticed that you faithfully and in commendable compliance with WP:AGF copy assorted, very similar messages from the talk page to the discussion. They are, of course, from the troll in question or one of its like-minded cohorts. Further evidence is provided by the edit history of Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Opinion polling for the United Kingdom European Union membership referendum (sorry, visible to admins only), which was created by a confirmed sock and received much the same kind of contributions as the present one, with an overlap in its list of editors. All this to reiterate my request that you not create an LTA for this troll. Regards, Favonian (talk) 14:33, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for letting me know. I was a tad suspicious about the number of IPs voting, but I assumed good faith and answered them anyway. So, are all the IPs who made semi-protected edit requests block evaders? If so we should scrap their votes per WP:TPO. As far as a potential LTA is concerned, the discussion doesn't seem to be reaching a consensus. On one hand, we have the experienced users voting against an LTA (you,, , ,  and ), and on the other we have the IPs voting for an LTA, whose votes either don't count due to the block evasion or create a no consensus situation due to the deadlock. For me, there are reasons both for (formality, for the sake of WP:RBI) and against (counteraction of WP:DENY and WP:SNOW), so I'm on the fence. I was on the fence about 's LTA for the same reasons. But as things stand, we're not approaching a consensus to create an LTA.  Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  15:13, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
 * There is an underlying issue whether these trolls are separate entities, one mega-troll or an internet clan. The various IPs/SPAs are at any rate acting in an orchestrated fashion and their !votes should be disregarded, though explicitly striking them would probably set off a whole new brouhaha. Glad you agree that there is no consensus for an LTA. Favonian (talk) 15:19, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
 * FYI I've inapp. comment-collapsed the IPs' votes and edit requests. Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  15:38, 27 August 2016 (UTC)

A message from Valetude
Re Tara Calico, I thought you might have answered my point via the Talk Page, rather than reverting with no comment. Valetude (talk) 15:59, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * I explained my revert in the edit summary; Template:Infobox person states, for the disappeared_status parameter, (For missing people) Current status for the person, e.g., if the person is still regarded as missing (using to calculate the time since disappearance), or if the person has been declared dead in absentia, with a date for such a ruling. The time since disappearance needs to be included in the parameter. Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  16:30, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

Royer2356
I get confused, because you recently started a rather sensible MfD but end up tagging self-declared sockpuppets. If you look at my recent deletion log, the G5 entries are all Royer2356 socks adding sockpuppet tags to themselves. There's probably a few more I could delete. Not sure if you've seen this? The MO is old, and mainly revolves around celebrating one's own sockpuppets. In my opinion they should be RBI'd to prevent further disruption. -- zzuuzz (talk) 13:07, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I thought it's a common practice to tag sockpuppets. In the case of Tikeem, a user was clearly feeding off of being tagged, and that's why I MfD'd their userpages. I don't know a lot about Royer, except for them "admitting" they was Genghis Khan (although, I remember, they told someone else they was just imitating them with some socks), and I didn't know whether they fed off sock tags. If that is the case, I would agree on RBI for the user. Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  13:27, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I wish you could have experienced the joy when DENY was first written. Early versions looked like this. -- zzuuzz (talk) 13:43, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Seeing "[User] moved page User:Linguist111 to Linguist111 on wheels!" in my userpage's move log would certainly give me a laugh. :p Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  13:51, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

rfc embedded in an afd
Hello. It looks like you embedded an RFC in Articles for deletion/Malta's Top Model (2nd nomination). Could you remove that? RFCs are generally for content disputes on article talk pages. If you remove the RFC, I'll take a look at the deletion discussion. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:37, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

 * I notice it's the second AfD discussion to begin without a single vote to be placed. At that point I'd practically call it a non-controversial deletion, that is, presuming that nobody joins the discussion this time. I don't particularly care for TV, not to mention, modelling. I'll take a look at it myself as well though. Mr rnddude (talk) 05:01, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

A message from Star Group
why did u review my page and go for speedy deletion? Star Group (talk) 07:20, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Hello. I've tagged your userpage for speedy deletion because it is written like an advertisement and appears to promote a company. Also, your username does not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it indicates your account represents the company you have written about in your userpage, and implies that your account is shared by multiple people. You have said you are working under the CEO of the company, which means you have a conflict of interest. CoI editing is strongly discouraged on Wikipedia. You can read more here. Thank you.

Responding to "vandalism"
Hi Linguist111! I have also been watching RecentChanges this afternoon, and you've been doing a good job keeping the vandals back. However, I do think you could have handled this situation a little more gently. I wouldn't quite call that edit vandalism&mdash;after all, the deceased was a real person, and the new editor simply misunderstood the purpose of Wikipedia&mdash;it wasn't an edit made in bad faith. When I come across similar situations that templated messages don't quite fit, I usually take a moment to write out a customized explanation instead of accusing the editor of doing something wrong. Do you think you could do that going forward? Altamel (talk) 16:44, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi. I'm sorry, I agree I was a bit harsh by warning the user. I wasn't sure what to do, given this was a sensitive issue. I fear I may have gotten too used to giving warnings, because I frequently stalk ClueBot NG to keep a watch out for vandalism and I give warnings very regularly, which is just too easy to do. Plus today, I've encountered quite a lot of vandalism; about a hour ago I was juggling about four vandals at once and was in a rush to sort everything out. But I will try to do what you said in the future. Thank you. Linguist 111  Moi? Moi.  17:16, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I understand. Happens to me also; it's too easy to get jaded after seeing disruptive edit after disruptive edit. Keep up the good work! Altamel (talk) 17:22, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

Sorry I didn't do everything correctly, I'm very new to Wikipedia editing and learning on the job. I didn't know how to respond to the edits made to the page. I didn't think that there was anything wrong with using 'Dr'; for women it is especially important as so often their marital title is used which is irrelevant, and men are not called 'Mr' so frequently.
