Macau at the Asian Winter Games
I am not sure how to update the automated lists, and for Macau (Asian Winter Games) it shows 1996 as a year the country competed in. However, the country did not compete in 1996. Can you fix this? Thanks! Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:36, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi there You have replied to my article that there are existing pages but I think you might have overlooked the fact that the pages are about a film dramatisation rather than about the actual person...please can you review again Regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sparkielspa (talk • contribs) 23:34, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , I didn't actually review the draft; my comment was simply to let other reviewers know the proper location to move the draft should it prove to be acceptable. I can see how there might have been confusion, though, so I've reworded my comments. Good luck. Primefac (talk) 23:53, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Thanks!
For picking up some of the AFC question posts at my talk page. I've had a rough busy few days and simply didn't have the mental energy to deal with newbies. I really wish they would go to the AFC Help desk or the Teahouse first before "harassing" reviewers. Perhaps the wording of the decline templates could be adjusted to de-emphasize the "ask the reviewer" advice in the how to get help paragraph, it is currently the first mentioned option.

 * Always happy to help. I obviously can't speak for the users asking for help, but to me it would make sense to ask the person who declined why they did so. Granted, most of the time they're just bitching at us, but I can somewhat see where they're coming from. Primefac (talk) 02:22, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

That AFD you withdrew
Hey Primefac, I just wanted to say something about Articles for deletion/Comet appearances in china, which you withdrew after some discussion. In my experience, every time an AFD like this has come up on ANI, consensus is that it's inappropriate to close it as a withdrawl if there are editors !voting for delete, as such a discussion has become de facto controversial, and should be closed by an uninvolved editor. I have no actually complaints about your editing, though. Cheers. Someguy1221 (talk) 03:08, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

1930 All-Ireland Empire Games flag
I believe the flag they used for the 1930 Games was the 1542 blue harp Standard, then used on the Royal Standard of the United Kingdom, not the green harp flag. The citations on the Ireland at the British Empire Games article do not contradict this information; the photo gallery link shows the bust on the harp (third flag from right), page 14 of the publication says the harp was 'on a blue (or possibly green) background'.  VEO one five 17:00, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * This is an interesting circumstance, . On the one hand "a golden harp on a blue (or possibly green) background" could mean either flag (since there is both a blue and green variant of the Flag of Leinster as well), and while I can sort-of see the bust on that image of the flag, I wouldn't stake my life on it. At the end of the day, unless someone has a picture of an Irish winner standing in front of the flag, I doubt we'll get a 100% solid answer. That being said, I don't have anything to explicitly counter your edit, so I'll leave it be. Primefac (talk) 22:55, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , check out reference 61 in the article you linked. "A gold Irish harp on a blue field is also associated historically with the flag and coat of arms of Leinster." It would seem odd if that wasn't a direct reference to the Flag of Leinster, right? There is a blue variant. I think this means that the way it was originally is the correct version. I'll wait for your reply before doing anything, though. Primefac (talk) 23:14, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * On that photograph, the flag for Scotland in the middle of that display is also their Royal Standard, which features on the British Royal Standard as well. Although I think changing Scotland's flag would open a massive can of worms (as would be Canada using the Union Jack at the 1912 Olympics), it should be allowed for this all-Ireland team considering they were a one-off.  Also, the style of the British sovereign at the time refers to Ireland as one rather than two entities so I think the Royal Standard of Ireland would make the most sense.   VEO one five 19:17, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi and. It should be possible to reach a consensus on this one that satisfies most concerns. I think both of you have got aspects of it right. But the way to go here is to try to represent, as best we can, the design used at the time and focus less on labelling the infobox with an official flag name. Many teams — Australia, South Africa, Scotland, and Ireland — did not use "official" national flags for the Games (and it seems England used the union flag rather than the St George cross).

In regard to the Liston & Maguire article being referenced — While I'm sure it is a worthy study of the social and political history of Ireland's participation at these games, it does not provide definitive detail of the flag that was used. I cannot access the full document myself, but if the text states "a golden harp on a blue (or possibly green) background", then it's clear that the authors have not seen the flag itself (perhaps a black and white photograph at best, and even that's doubtful if not included with the article). Not surprising given it was published in 2016. Any mention the article makes comparing the 1930 Empire Games flag to Leinster's flag or arms must be considered in this context - i.e. it's general comment about the Irish harp symbol; they don't even know what colour the games flag was.

Secondly, this colour image, from a photo collection of Hamilton, Ontario memorabilia from 1930 British Empire Games, indicates that the flag used by the Ireland team had a green background, rather than blue. The flags shown, assuming numbered 1 to 11 from left to right, are: Attempting to match these to the 11 participating teams:
 * 1, 2, 4, 9, 11: Red ensigns (x5)
 * 3: Green and white field (Per fess Argent and Vert)
 * 5: Yellow field, red motif
 * 6: Union flag
 * 7: Green field, gold/yellow motif
 * 8, 10: Blue ensigns (x2)
 * Blue ensigns (x2):
 * British Guyana
 * New Zealand
 * Red ensigns (x5):
 * Australia: The national blue ensign was by convention reserved for government use. Organisations/private citizens used the red ensign variant.
 * South Africa: The orange, white, blue flag adopted in 1928 is not depicted - it would seem the earlier red ensign was used at these games.
 * Canada: (Maybe they used the union flag like in 1912 as per - but I think more likely their red ensign).
 * Bermuda
 * Newfoundland
 * Britain and Ireland:
 * Wales - 3. Green and white field (red dragon not visible)
 * Scotland - 5. Yellow field, red motif (likely Royal Standard of Scotland)
 * England - 6. Union flag (the plain St George cross, commonly used in recent times, seems not to be depicted).
 * Ireland - 7. Green field, gold motif.

Comments from both editors above mention a bust in this photo -, "shows the bust on the harp"; and (albeit not conclusively) "can sort-of see the bust".

I think there is a head outlined in profile and, curving up from the back of the neck, what looks to be an angel's wing. To me it is most likely a winged-maiden variant of the harp. If the field is green rather than blue, though, using the 1542–1800 Royal Standard of Ireland doesn't fit. There are, however, other Green Flags of Ireland already in Wikipedia:

As an aside, there is a precedenct to the Green Flag being used at athletics events: "In 1906 when Peter O'Connor won the long jump championship at the Olympic Games in Athens, he successfully objected to the raising of the union flag ... in honour of his victory and succeeded in having a green poplin harp flag, which had been provided by his thoughtful supporters, hoisted instead."Flags Of The World – Ireland: Green Flag

Using a flag along these lines would, in my view, provide the best "fit" to the information available. I propose that one of these green flags be used for the article, labelled as Ireland Green Flag, (or similar) with details in a footnote as below. -- Ham105 (talk) 10:19, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , you're an absolute legend. Primefac (talk) 17:49, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

Notes:

The exact design of the flag used by the Ireland team at the 1930 Empire Games is uncertain. However, the flag was not the Irish tricolour, considered by unionists as specific to the Free State; instead it showed "a golden harp on a blue (or possibly green) background".

A colour image, from a memorabilia collection in Hamilton shows the flags of all eleven teams at the 1930 games. Seven of the flags are defaced red or blue ensigns, representing Australia, British Guyana, Bermuda, Canada, Newfoundland, New Zealand and South Africa. The other four flags represent Wales (green and white field, red dragon not visible), Scotland (yellow field with red motif, likely the Royal Standard of Scotland), England (the Union flag) and Ireland (green field with gold motif).

From a black and white photograph at the opening ceremony, the team flag third from the right appears to show a maiden's head and wing above harp strings. Not all of the motif is clearly seen, but this might indicate that the Ireland team's flag featured a "winged-maiden" variant of the Irish harp.

 * Based on the evidence that's been provided, I would go for the green winged maiden harp flag. Maybe caption it 'representative flag of Ireland' in the infobox?   VEO one five 17:28, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Uncorrected errors in astronomical article

Usuário(a):Lucas.Belo/Testes2
Just an explanation: the reason I tagged the aforementioned article for speedy deletion under G12 was not because it was copyright infringement (it isn't since the original article was licensed under a CC-BY-SA 4.0 license), but because the attribution appeared (at the time to me) to be wrong: the article states that it was originally published on opensource.org, but at the time I tagged the article, the only hit I could find for the text was on a different website (I've since found the original opensource.org link). In any case, the article already duplicates our articles on Copyright and Creative Commons so I guess A10 (rather than G12) applies. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 01:10, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Kendall Vertes
You rejected deletion of Kendall Vertes claiming CSD#A3 was not appropriate. I don't disagree with this. However, the article is not at all about Kendall Vertes, it is instead very clearly about Nia Frazier, whose articles have been deleted several times (see Nia Frazier and Nia Sioux) before being salted, and the creator of Kendall Vertes is quite aware of this, having consistently tried to create articles on Nia Frazier (see her talk page and contribs). Clearly the article shouldn't exist as it can't be moved to the correct location as the pages are salted, and in any case it would be eligible for deletion per CSD G4 as the article was originally deleted at AfD. I've tagged it accordingly, but creation of a Nia Frazier/Sioux article at Kendall Vertes seems a sneaky attempt to get an article into Wikipedia, even if not at the correct location and should probably be sanctioned in some way. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 16:23, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Primefac (talk) 19:18, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't see it as pedantic, just a difference of opinion. I've had this disagreement before. Some admins agree with your analysis. Other admins feel that WP:G8 which is for "Categories populated by a deleted or retargeted template" is appropriated as the template has been retargeted to not populate the category. I agree with this second analysis. Either way, I did null edits on the 4 pages so the cat is now empty.

@PamD The center point remain same. I only want to clear myself on above mentioned points.सुमित सिंह (talk) 11:23, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , there are a few points to consider here, so I'll run through the sequence of events.
 * You wrote the article on, replacing the redirect with article text.
 * Some of that content was copied directly from other sources, so the page was nominated for deletion as a copyright violation.
 * I removed the copyrighted material, and found that the remaining content largely duplicated the material at 2016 Siachen Glacier avalanche.
 * I turned the page back into a redirect.
 * The other reason why I turned the page back into a redirect is because of a policy we have called WP:BLP1E, or "biographies of living persons known for only one event." The only reason Koppad received media attention is because he happened to survive the avalanche (note that none of the other casualties have Wikipedia articles). Thus, he most likely does not meet the criteria for inclusion.
 * सुमित सिंह, if you can demonstrate that there is enough coverage to overcome BLP1E I am happy to restore the content you added and provide an opportunity for you to continue adding material. If you choose to go down that route, however, the page may be nominated for deletion again if a) the added content is copied directly from other sources, or b) no indication is given that he surpasses BLP1E. Happy to answer any further questions you may have about this situation. Primefac (talk) 13:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

RfA follow-up
Thanks for the reply. Hope I didn't put you on the spot with that. I understand the idea of not responding to everyone. It just seemed like such an easy thing to address. :) BTW I meant to ask before, but can I ask what class it was that introduced you to Wikipedia? (I'm also User:Ryan (Wiki Ed) -- Wiki Ed wasn't around at that point, but I was involved enough with the education program that I'm curious). No worries if you'd rather not mention specifics like that, of course. Editor retention isn't typically one of the primary goals of working with student editors, but it's always great to see when someone does stick around :) ). &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 23:11, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , no worries; I definitely needed to say it at some point. Thanks also for the support.
 * I started editing Wikipedia because my fraternity's list of chapters was a bit out-of-date, and I wanted to make some improvements to it and the list of notable members. That was pretty much it until I did my senior research project at U Glasgow and realised that there was an entire community here (and plenty more to update!).
 * On the subject of editor retention (which really only applies to me since the other two on my Glasgow course didn't stick around Wikipedia) I think what really kept me interested were the WikiProjects. As part of the course, I joined WP:AST and WP:PHYS to get feedback/input from other editors about editorial changes. Being in AST/PHYS led to template editing, and then the IRC help room, and the rest is history. I think if teachers stressed joining a related WikiProject, a) the pages written by students would be much better, and b) there would be a larger retention rate. Of course, I think improving existing articles is far superior (it's metaphorically easier to dive in), but to each their own.
 * I'm happy to weigh in on any Ed stuff in the future; my views may be weird but an outsiders perspective can be helpful (sometimes). Primefac (talk) 23:40, 14 January 2017 (UTC)


 * WikiProjects can be great resources indeed. In terms of documenting best practices, however, they're sort of tricky. The challenge is basically just inconsistent/uneven activity levels (i.e. for most subjects, other than e.g. medicine, military history, film, anime, tropical cyclones, those you mentioned, etc., it's more likely than not that the instructor/student would get no timely reply). For a newbie, it's hard to know what to do if you go through the designated communication channel(s) and don't get a reply. It comes up when classes turn to volunteer-run processes of review, too (asking for feedback at WikiProjects, from individual editors, at peer review, etc. is inconsistent, and volunteer response schedules aren't typically compatible with tight deadlines of a syllabus -- I learned this the hard way when I thought it would be a good idea to bring my first on-wiki class through GAN). So in other words, I agree that wikiprojects are a resource instructors/students should know about, and that they can lead to more robust community experiences, but I'd want to be careful to ensure classes don't go into the project planning to rely on them. Meh. Congrats, btw :) &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 02:25, 20 January 2017 (UTC)

Request on 20:52:06, 21 January 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by Werhuwieyw8
I respectfully disagree with your assessment on this article. FNs 6, 13 and 26 go into deep detail about the company's business, and the publication CoinDesk in which this treatment is given is more or less the leading industry publication in the blockchain industry. A careful reading of the articles in footnotes 9, 11, 12, 14, 15 and 17 shows that while they aren't about the company per se, they deal with the company's work as the central example of the article's subject matter (chiefly permissioned blockchains).

Monax was the first company (or among the first) in the world to use "permissioned blockchain" technology (see FN11, 12 14, 15). So where articles are written about the concept Monax/Eris introduced with its technology, by reference to the company, and in some cases without reference to any other firm (FN14/15), for all practical purposes these should satisfy the "coverage in depth" requirement.

These include pieces in the FT, Marketwatch and the WSJ at the footnotes given above, which are highly reliable secondary sources which should be sufficient to establish the company's notability under the "substantial coverage" arm of the WP:Notability policy.

Even if that isn't enough, the articles from 2016/17 which you (rightly) point out list Monax among groups of companies rather than as the focus of the article, are nonethless additive to the proposition that Monax is notable. WP:Notability states that where depth of coverage is insubstantial, "multiple independent sources should be cited to establish notability." In this case multiple, independent, entirely secondary and very reliable sources (NASDAQ, Reuters, WSJ, ZDNet, IBTimes, Financial News, Coindesk) are provided to back up factual assertions made in the article about the originality and importance of the work Monax does.

 * , regardless of your intentions (or lack of being able to contest the deletion) it is not proper to simply hack large chunks of text out of existing articles in order to create a new one. If you think a topic is getting too long, or should be split into multiple articles, you need to start a talk page conversation to gather input from other users (especially if your first attempt was deleted). I'm still not entirely sure why you felt the need to split off the deleted page, since the article itself needs work and really isn't that long. Primefac (talk) 22:21, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Please see the talk of Robert McClenon.--Iolair, Gaelic For Eagle (talk) 22:26, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't really have any comments at this point now that the damage has been reverted. Please do not remove large parts of an existing article in order to create a fork about a neologism without first discussing on an article talk page.  Robert McClenon (talk) 22:43, 19 January 2017 (UTC)


 * The maltreatment has not been reverted. No – AP Course offerings, civic milestones, activities, school codes, and every other item you wiped away, vary between every high school.  Bluntly, what has occurred over the last 24-48 hours is ridiculous.


 * You both have edited the page as if you live a half of a world away from Ohio, to your own liking without relevance.


 * Is this not a living encyclopedia? Did Jimmy Wales of Alabama not pledge an encyclopedia?  Did Wales not give everyone the ability to make informed edits to entries they possess knowledge about?  Tell me, what do you think you know about American schools?  They vary in form, size, and yes, institutional stature!  That positioning gives rise to norms across regions; and it is best to document, as other entries will follow suit in a living encyclopedia.


 * By watching your profile, your magnetism is to rapid change: Rapid deletion on an encyclopedia page—about a system of schools over 100 years old?


 * What did you do for Milford Schools? You misspelled your own edits, deleted users’ significant additions, de-organized information about American education, and dismissed sourced scholarship about American education as ‘neologism!’  You then proceeded to add, to your vast collection of edits, with edits to Milford High School not once, not thrice, but NINE (9) consecutive times!


 * Why should we trust you to accomplish informed edits any differently than you succeeded on edits to Milford Schools? There is no evidence.  As far as I am concerned, the original “spoonful of edits” and “fork” are committed without violation of preestablished norms, while your edits are the real reason for discussion about sloppiness and inappropriateness.--Surenorint (talk) 20:16, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
 * User:Surenorint (and User:Iolair, Gaelic For Eagle - What maltreatment? Ranting about maltreatment is not a useful way to get an objective in Wikipedia.  Discuss at the article talk page rather than ranting.  Iolair made a massive edit that moved nearly half of an article into a new article with a weird name.  The edit was then reverted.  This should have resulted in talk page discussion, or just in leaving the situation alone.  Then User:Primefac made some edits to the original article, Milford High School (Ohio).  Then two editors ranted.  Discuss on the article talk page if there is an issue about your edits or about Primefac's edits.  Robert McClenon (talk) 00:47, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

User:Frank Lippincott/sandbox and related speedy deletions
There is longstanding consensus practice that unsourced articles identifying living persons as porn performers are subject to G10 speedy deletion. Among other things, they're quite often completely spurious, intended to ridicule or harass their nominal subject. User:Frank Lippincott/sandbox is a perfect example of this -- there's an IMDB page that makes even clearer that this isn't a legitimate article. Keeping stuff like this around is of no value to Wikipedia and often perpetuates harassment, especially if Wikipedia content is scraped and reposted elsewhere until Google keeps it around forever.

 * , I moved the article to Draft:Solomon Nwaka, as it was not yet ready for the Article space. was the admin who deleted the draft page, so you should request an undeletion at User talk:Graeme Bartlett.

Compulsion
Someone in the ANI thread re: notifying about deletion discussions etc mentioned that there has recently been a similar thread in which another person was compelled to use edit summaries. Any idea where that thread is? Could it be applied as a precedent?

Page protection
Hi! I hope you're well. On 22 January 2017, you enabled pending changes on List of terrorist incidents in January 2017 because of disruptive editing. Editors were in general agreement about the level of protection, given the lack of valid sources and careless editing. Now that it's a new month (or soon to be), would you be willing to give the same protection to List of terrorist incidents in February 2017? I suspect editing on the January article will soon cease, and all editors will now move to the next month. I know this is pre-emptive protection, but I think this would be an exemption from the norm.

Crucible (hypervisor)
Primefac, why did you delete the Crucible (hypervisor) page? It was not promotional or advertising, simply bare facts about the subject. If you are going to delete that page, then you should follow through and delete every other page on Wikipedia that discusses a product. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Starlabcorp (talk • contribs) 14:54, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , the page was completely unreferenced and did little more than act as a product catalogue for Crucible. If you want I can move the page to the Draft space so you can continue working on it. First and foremost you will need references, but talking about the company itself (rather than just listing its products) is also important. Primefac (talk) 15:03, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi Primefac, If you can leave it in draft, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Starlabcorp (talk) 15:12, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Indycar on BT
Hello, you rightly deleted this draft earlier today here. However, the page has been recreated here together with another userspace page here. The page has previously been deleted after discussion here. The page was also re-created on a previous occasion on or around 25 January (see User talk:Rowde) and I think (not 100% certain) that you deleted at that time also. By way of background this is an IP-hopping editor well known to the Wiki F1 and other motorsport projects, who has been editing since August 2015 (possibly earlier) and makes a habit of this sort of thing, making various attempts to get around Wiki's systems and does not heed warnings or advice. He also edits as user 'Rowde'. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 00:17, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Strike out warning
Could you please strike-out the warning on my page as I did properly close the AfD. Thank you. Wiki-Coffee Talk 18:52, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , no. Technically speaking, you did not close the discussion properly. At the time you closed, the user was not blocked for being a sock and the question of notability was still in play. It was a rather questionable AFD from the get-go, but if (on the incredible off chance) the nominator wasn't a sock, it would have been an improper closure. As I stated on the discussion at your talk page, there is no harm in having an AFD open while things get sorted out. If you approach this sort of situation in the future I hope you will consider !voting first, going to SPI second, maybe talking to an admin, and then performing a NAC when the above get checked. Primefac (talk) 18:58, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Per my talk page I told you from the beginning of the conversation that the issue was related to a sock-puppet and that there was a combination of factors being the language of the nominator and the fact he had used notability when notability had been established. I was the one who reported the user as a Sockpuppet and I also closed the AfD on merit of those reasons. Having to contact admins and go through a long-winded process just delays edits to Wikipedia and I wouldn't agree with that method. Wiki-Coffee  Talk 19:02, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Yes. I'm not sure if the NPR folk are making this policy, but I've seen a lot of it happening recently. Definitely "nicer" to move to draft and allow them to continue working. And yes, if they keep moving it back to the Article space, you can CSD/AFD it. Primefac (talk) 19:00, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

/Wikidata
Hi Primefac, I'm not going to challenge your close, I just wondered about one thing. You claim "the proponents of this template have made a convincing argument for its use over the on-wiki infoboxes." I presume you mean that maintenance is in theory only needed once with this template? The problem is that they have not presented a single example of where this argument, for this infobox, has actually been shown. On the contrary, I have already corrected multiple cases where the local article was corrected (subject deceased) but the Wikidata infobox still gave them as living.

I fail to see how an argument is considered to be "convincing" if it turns out in reality to be false (or certainly in more cases not true than true). I have not seen yet any article of the 300+ where this infobox is used, where the Wikidata version was indeed the better choice to use. Fram (talk) 20:57, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , you make a valid point, but I made that statement thinking about the long-term usage of the template (as discussed by the "for" camp). I agree with you that at this particular moment it's not perfect, but I know from experience that sometimes the bugs in a template aren't found until it goes through both beta and live testing (and/or a prolonged TFD where everything is called into question). I tried to stress the importance of keeping an eye on implementation and accuracy of the template, and I suspect that you'll be partaking of such activities. I left it open for renomination if it becomes clear they're not actively attempting to fix issues (or if they can't fix them), though I did suggest waiting at least a few months in order to give them time to keep working on it.

Disambiguating pages vs. set-index articles
Hi! First of all, congratulations on getting the mop! Good job.

I'm here because of these edits. I wanted to update you on the differences between dab pages and set-index articles. The Anthroponymy Project has been taking over the pages that list surnames, given names, or both. Those pages are being changed into set-index articles and, though they can often look very similar to disambiguation pages, they are not the same. The way to tell at a glance is to check the bottom of the page; there will usually be a template there that identifies which kind of page it is.

Redirects that have "(disambiguation)" in the title are supposed to target disambiguation pages only. These particular redirects are created to be used when a deliberate link to a dab is needed (such as in a hatnote or a "see also" section). Other links to dab pages are errors and need to be corrected. If the corresponding dab page gets deleted or changed into an article or list, then the redirect is no longer needed, unless there is a closely related dab it can be pointed at.

As more and more dab pages get transferred to set-index articles, there will be more and more of this type of redirect left over. They need to be deleted (as soon as any links to them are resolved, of course). I've been working on these for the Disambiguation Project, and gradually weeding them out. You'll most likely come across more of my CSD G6s for these. I hope you'll help with the housekeeping. :-) — Gorthian (talk) 23:39, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , thanks for the heads up. I didn't think to check for the dab template; I'll keep an eye out in the future. Primefac (talk) 01:10, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Any chance you can delete those two pages now? Or are they doomed to RFD once they're declined? (The pages are Franny (disambiguation) and Savva (disambiguation).) — Gorthian (talk) 05:08, 9 February 2017 (UTC)

Cleanup backlog
Hi there,

Something you did recently has added a bunch of articles to the cleanup backlog for months going back years (see Theodor Creizenach, August Ferdinand Anacker for examples). I don't fully understand what the process you did was but it appears to be something to do with translations from the German wikipedia. Was it a mistake or mis-copy of some kind? And if so, what is the solution? Did you mean to tag these articles, and if so should I place a more accurate date tag? Or are you in the middle of something? Jdcooper (talk) 23:10, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , I was wondering if this would cause any issues. Meyers was nominated for deletion as being unnecessary (it turns out it was a cleanup ambox without actually putting the pages into any sort of cleanup category). The original message was:

"This article is based on a public domain licensed extract from Meyers Konversations-Lexikon, 4th edition from 1888–1890. You may delete this template if you think that this text is up to date, written in accordance with Wikipedia policies, correctly sourced and written from a neutral point of view."


 * In hindsight, I should have put that entire thing into the cleanup tag. The reason I used the historical dates is because those were the dates that the template was added to the page, and I wanted the cleanup category to be as accurate as possible. My apologies for being less than obvious with what I was doing. In all honesty, most of those pages looked fine to me, so the tags could be removed.

Suggestion, automated trivial edit summary
Hi, what do you think of this suggestion. Village_pump_(idea_lab). This would be much better than manual policing, right? Edit summaries themselves aren't enough to confirm whats going on. I've vandalism with valid-looking summaries.

PrimeBOT issues.
I don't think PrimeBot is working as it should. e.g. Look at this diff. I don't think this is intended. Coderzombie (talk) 09:41, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , other than a few random underscores, it looks like it did exactly what it should have. Am I missing something? Primefac (talk) 14:46, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I'd think introducing "a few random underscores" itself would be a huge problem no? Because this happened across multiple pages (such as this, this, this), not just one. A bot should not be doing such a massive disruptive editing in my opinion. Coderzombie (talk) 15:02, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't, actually. These issues didn't appear during the testing phase of the BRFA, so I'm not overly sure why it was happened, but it's not the end of the world. I'll see what I can do to clean it up. Primefac (talk) 15:11, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I just meant if the bot is still running, it should be stopped for now until the bug is fixed. It seems to me that this has happened across almost all episodes of The Americans (2013 TV series) episodes. Coderzombie (talk) 15:17, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Bot run ended last night. As I said, I'll do a run through and fix what I can. Primefac (talk) 15:21, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Request on 21:09:34, 25 January 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by Ksicchio
There are only two links to dance companies. The rest of the sources are project pages. This comment is unfair and did not look at the other references that include magazine articles, conference proceedings or Master's thesis links. I also do not feel the title change understands the association with algorithmic composition (that article is not called computer generated music). I am very unsatisfied with this review and think it should be reconsidered.

Ksicchio (talk) 21:09, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , let's look at the references in the draft:
 * Conference proceedings generally aren't considered to be reliable sources, as they're not published and therefore not subject to review.
 * Blogspot is almost never a reliable source.
 * I like this source. It's solid.
 * This is promotional, intended really only to showcase/sell a product
 * A Masters Thesis is generally not considered to be a reliable source.
 * This is an okay source.
 * This is just a list of publications.
 * - I'm not sure if this is a review, a performance announcement, or what. It's a decent source, but it doesn't really go into much depth.
 * Primary source, a page from the creator listing his updates.
 * Generic main page
 * Generic index
 * This page has about five words on it. Not very useful.
 * Generic main page
 * So, it looks like you have 1 solid source (#3), 2 okay sources (#6 and #8), and a bunch of filler. Granted, some of them are fine for verification purposes, but there just isn't enough in the way of significant coverage from independent sources. As a note regarding the page title - I changed it based on this discussion, which I agree with. If you can find multiple sources that call it "algorithmic choreography" then an argument can be made to change it back. Primefac (talk) 22:21, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

04:48:01, 4 February 2017 review of submission by Embby
Hi. I thought you were going to try to help me rewrite an article for Travelers United so that I could make a page for it? It has been over a month and I have not heard from you.

If you google the Federal Trade Commission report from January 5, 2017 you will see EXPLICITLY that in the report Travelers United is mentioned VARIOUS TIMES as being the only pro-consumer group fighting for travelers on the issue of resort fees. This is not from a news source, it is from the Federal Trade Commission of the United States of America. You will also see that the American Hotel and Lodging Association is the group mentioned advocating for resort fees. They have a Wikipedia page. Travelers United does not.

This is in addition to the clip from the NBC national nightly news that I think I already sent you where Travelers United was the only group interviewed to discuss a travelers issue that day.

Honestly - what else do I have to give you? A million sources and quotes from newspapers, reports from the Federal Trade Commission about the organization generally, and here is yet another news source about what we have done in working with the FTC and the surveys that we conduct to see what American travelers want. Here is one such article from Fox News: http://www.foxnews.com/travel/2017/01/06/hidden-hotel-resort-fees-come-under-fire-in-ftc-report.html

I do not know how to use Wikipedia well but I have been trying to get this page up since October. This is so disappointing that you have left up the page of the giants here that are doing all they can with their millions to crush competition in the travel industry and you deny deny deny the tiny org that is working against them a page. With all the sources I have given you, from the news to reports from the federal government, can you let me know what on earth at this point denies this non-profit a Wikipedia page?
 * , I left a note on the draft page itself, and after a scan of Google News hits I stand by that statement. There is really just no coverage about Travelers United. Everything is either a one sentence mention (e.g. "according to Travelers United"), a quote from Leocha, or an article written by Elliot. As for the other pages that are on Wikipedia - sometimes size matters. The articles about them might not be stellar, but there does appear to be enough significant coverage to merit a page. I'm sorry that it's not working out, but it happens. Primefac (talk) 22:31, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

You have not helped me. I re-wrote the entire article. Every single other non-profit in the sphere is represented on Wikipedia except Travelers United. I cited every sentence. I double cited many. I cite amicus curaie briefs for the Supreme Court, FTC Reports, legislation from California, etc. If you read the report from the Federal Trade Commission, you might be interested to see that Travelers United is the only non-profit specifically named on the issue of resort fees & consumer advocacy. You have to actually open the report to read it.

What is the deal? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Embby (talk • contribs) 22:39, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

internal line / virtual particle
is that really a commonly understood term? can you judge that if you're an expert on the subject? These pages are full of detailed jargon, dont links help people cut through them? Look how big the Feynman diagram article is. you have to read through so much before you get to something telling you what an 'internal line' is. Can't any supposed "overlinking" hazard be dealt with by the platform (e.g. if you have multiple links to the same page, render them in a less prominent shade) Fmadd (talk) 16:38, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , internal line was deleted because disambiguation pages require more than just two terms. Since it only had two terms, it was deleted as being unnecessary. Primefac (talk) 16:48, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * internal line sounds like such a generic phrase to me, I'd be surprised if it doesn't have different connotations in other contexts - which is why I didn't create a redirect *directly* from that. When I hear that, I first think of internal telephone lines. Asking google, I note that there are a few companies that use "Internal Line" as part of their name ('Internal Line Interior Design', Internal Line Marketing Contractors, Internal Line Marking'). what if any of those end up making wikipedia page later. Fmadd (talk) 16:53, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia isn't a crystal ball. We don't need to be creating pages just on the off chance that a page is created in the future. If we need a page in the future, we'll create it. Primefac (talk) 16:55, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is a 'crystal ball' of sorts. there's 7billion people on this planet, how do you know up front what everyone else will find to put here? An open structure lets you discover things later. Such a generic phrase, it's bound to be used multiple times. That was my intuition, and sure enough consulting google I do find different contexts. The only certainty is that knowledge will grow, surely? Fmadd (talk) 17:05, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * We don't know what people will put on Wikipedia. That's exactly my point. There is no sense in creating a disambiguation page on the off chance that someone decides in two years that they want to create an article about a third subject. We can just as easily create it when it happens. See WP:CRYSTAL. Primefac (talk) 17:23, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Right, i've flicked over WP:CRYSTAL, and it does NOT seem to relate to the matter we're discussing here, it's rejecting speculative content, not speculation about what content should be added... I'm talking about leaving organisational structure in place that helps people navigate. Don't you like to use wikipedia in an exploratory manner? Often i'm frustrated because an article doesn't define something easily - I put these anchors in etc, I dont want to go and re-organize the whole page, but maybe someone will talke the hint and do so in an elegant manner.   Fmadd (talk) 22:07, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

'stellar explosion .. defined 3 lines later' then why does the text say 'stellar explosion'??? "stellar explosion" conveys something more general - and, indeed, exploring wikipedia you can discover what. Fmadd (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

IR remote
I am trying to fix something... remote control is a hugely ambiguous term, and unsurprisingly it is mislinked in many different ways. This web of redirects might look chaotic to use, but i'm using those to disambiguate. It's not always obvious what they want to point at, but the more terms you carry across from the original context where it is used, the more chance you have of getting it right eventually. I've seen [remote control|RC car], [remote control]ed aircraft, etc etc. 'remote control' is a noun, and a 'general process' (the process of remote control).

There's "remote control (disambiguation)" which is far too broad i.e. including all the media titles using then there's remote control which is far too narrow ('consumer electronics short range remote control) and teleoperation.

There's cases where it's not immediately obvious what is being talked about, but it's clearly not songs/TV episodes, just the control case. thats why I made remote control (general).

this is like a 'rolling refactor' of software, making wrappers to get the right target eventually

Fmadd (talk) 00:34, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't it make more sense to achieve a consensus to change the way remote control and remote control (disambiguation) are structured first and then change the way that all of these articles are linked? You are making a vast number of edits in anticipation of something that hasn't happened yet, and may not happen (or not happen quite the way you are expecting). What if remote control (consumer electronics) is not where the current remote control article ends up? Remote control (general) is unlikely to ever be an article because "(general)" isn't a disambiguator we use. I think you need to get consensus for new articles / article moves & splits before restructuring the "web of redirects". <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 00:50, 16 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Probably stating the obvious, i've tried to make an ascii art diagram explaining user:fmadd . If there are lots of intermiediate redirects, it's easier to resolve the ambiguity. They're like an abstraction layer or wrappers in software.  Reading further, and looking at the history,  it's not hard to see why it's so ambiguous.   The article has obviously been changed, starting out as 'general remote control', and gradually being refined specifically to TV/DVD remote handsets. (with the pictures matching what it says in the opening paragraph).    Fmadd (talk) 01:18, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , that's wonderful. You're still missing the point. If you want to make huge sweeping changes like this, you must discuss it first. I don't necessary disagree with your message, but how you're implementing it is incredibly disruptive. Primefac (talk) 01:21, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Looks disruptive to you because you're evidently a 'judger' personality rather than a 'perceiver'. You expect everything to be finished and in it's final form all the time, obviously. Wikipedia being an open graph should support open ended,exploratory thinking. When you break things down into smaller pieces it's easier to connect them organically. You're butting into my thought process and complaining because one snapshot of one piece in isolation doesn't make sense to you (like organic dye..) Fmadd (talk) 01:26, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * It is disruptive, because you're going against years of policy and consensus. You cannot make unilateral changes to a system like Wikipedia. I'm not just some dafty who doesn't like what you're doing, as evidenced by the ANI that has backed me up. Primefac (talk) 01:28, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * other vocal people like you. You're deleting redirects because they dont make sense to you... but they're moving pieces, like scaffolding , that help get the structure right . I'm trying to fix things and you're going around pulling the scaffholding away, because you expect everything to conform to some rigid plan in your head. Fmadd (talk) 01:40, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Right, because a group of administrators, who have been selected as being the most likely to know and understand Wikipedia policy, "don't get it". We get it, all right, but that doesn't mean we can/should accept it. Primefac (talk) 01:42, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * (ec)No, they are not anything like scaffolding. That implies the pages need the redirects, but it is the other way around. You do not have to change the redirects first. As I have tried to explain above, you get consensus for the structure first and then adjust the redirects. <strong style="font-variant:small-caps">WJBscribe (talk) 01:45, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * 'group of administrators' ... priestly cult... Like the damn C++ comittee that block various features for so long, dragging their heels
 * I can see now, looking how that damn article does actually have talk of teslas boat and military applications later, one option here would be to just generalise the 'opening paragraph'. But we've still got loads of contexts where people say 'remote' and they mean the literal damn handset for changing TV stations. If at least we point at an abstraction layer (which you are busy deleting??!!!) we can fix it more easily. It's been broken for years, because people try to put too much into one article, or they use that pipe trick to put literal redirects in one at a time. Fmadd (talk) 01:48, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * >>"No, they are not anything like scaffolding. That implies the pages need the redirects, but it is the other way around. You do not have to change the redirects first." ... yeah this is exactly the problem, I know your type. You have no concept of an organic workflow. Which is why you rejected 'organic dye', because it didn't make sense to the rigid plan in your head. But the process of digging around, with the redirect as a 'staging point', helps figure out what is going on, and eventually the structure is improved around it. You can't fix a decent structure as an upfront plan. No one knows as much as wikipedia. The key is to maintain an organic workflow (with abstraction layers), then the right structure emerges. Fmadd (talk) 01:50, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

you still dont seem to understand what I'm trying to do?
PROBLEM

[1]the article remote control is too specific - it's about short range, wireless, remote control handsets for consumer electronics. remote control covers a much wider range of cases, including WIRED remotes, LONG RANGE,   Operating vehicles/ submarines/ remote bombs in IED's etc.

[2] we have 100s of pages depending on the specific structure.

[3] we have many cases where articles point at remote cnotrol erroneously, when they actually mean teleoperation

[4] we have ambiguous examples, where if we split the articles we wouldn't quite know where to point them (are toys 'consumer electronics', or teleoperated?)

SOLUTION

[1] introduce an abstraction layer of redirects. like television remote control etc. All those redirects, like organic dye, that your rigid mind instantly can't accept, because their not part of your plan.

[2] Tthen it's much easier to change the articles that we point at. We can rework material between (remote control, teleoperation, radio control), whilst only having to update 10's of redirects rather than 100s of 'inline links'.

No one person knows everything here - we will arrive at a better structure (rather than this one which looks to have been broken for years) by working dynamically, rather than rigidly.

Fmadd (talk) 02:28, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I understand exactly what you're trying to do. However, an undertaking this massive must get input from other editors. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Unilateral large-scale changes just aren't acceptable on Wikipedia. Primefac (talk) 02:30, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not even chaining the structure now. I'm just introducing redirects, which mean it will be easier to change the structure later. that's all. You're acting as if redirects are life threatening. Fmadd (talk) 02:32, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

...Why did you just revert all his contributions? I see a block but no sign the content edits were wrong?... ? Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 00:11, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , see this ANI thread. The long and the short of it is they have created a ridiculous number of unnecessary redirects, edited hundreds of pages to point to those redirects (often breaking or avoiding perfectly valid links in the process), and we're deleting almost all of them and rolling back their contributions. Yes, there will be a small number of valid changes that are being undone, but it is better than letting garbage sit around waiting for someone to eventually notice and clean it up. Primefac (talk) 00:18, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
 * You have undone a great number of non-redirect related edits and this is not vaguely ok. I am going to go to ANI but I do not see a consensus for that yet there, there's no existing policy for such widespread rollbacks under the circumstances lacking a consensus, and this is not at all good.  Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 00:25, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Australia, Kuwait and New Zealand will compete under the OCA flag, so I am unsure how to get that into their respective nation pages and the main article.

Hi. This is highly unprofessional. Why exactly have you protected Opration Storm article? I made an edit and I have started a discussion. How else am I supposed to edit Wikipedia? An editor who clearly opposes my edit and who doesn't want to participate in the discussion has thought of a great way to get his way. Block the page so I can't edit it and ignore the opened discussion? Why should I be discriminated because I edit as an IP? Here I've opened an account just for this purpose, to edit this one article. Please revert your deed. Bilseric (talk) 21:16, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
 * , it's not a permanent protection (in time or in access). I see you've started some discussions on the talk page, and that's good. If that doesn't work out, there are other dispute options available (such as dispute resolution, Third Opinion, etc). As a note regarding your edits - we do unfortunately view IPs less favourably as we do registered users. However, this does not mean that IPs cannot make valid points/edits/etc (just the same as registered users can bugger things up). You made the first move, and even if you are right, there has been pushback from another editor, so I strongly encourage you to reach some sort of consensus on the talk page before you edit the main page (which you'll be able to once you reach autoconfirmed status in a few days).
 * The long and the short is that I'm not going to unprotect the page (it's only for a fortnight anyway), but in the meantime you should discuss the issues on the talk page with other users. And always, remember to be CIVIL. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Primefac (talk) 22:24, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
