something happened

any thoughts? JarrahTree 09:20, 1 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Not sure. The map was actually like that before I created the template. QLDer in NSW (talk) 06:14, 3 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I think I've fixed it, there was an en dash in the name so the link to the map data was broken. --Canley (talk) 04:26, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Arbcom
Have you considered WP:RFPP? If your problematic interlocutors are typically unregistered editors, page protection may be a relatively simple solution. I haven't looked deeply into the issue (and am ignorant of Australian politics), but I predict your case request will be declined as premature. Best of luck, Folly Mox (talk) 04:35, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * I think ArbCom may be the best option. QLDer in NSW (talk) 04:37, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Arbitration case request
Hello QLDer in NSW. I'm a member of the Arbitration Committee. I wanted to reach out because I'm closing your arbitration case request, as arbitration is not required at this stage. Arbitration on Wikipedia is a lengthy, complicated process that involves the unilateral adjudication of a dispute by an elected committee. Although the Committee's decisions can be useful to certain disputes, in many cases the actual process of arbitration is unenjoyable and time-consuming. Moreover, for most disputes the community maintains an effective set of mechanisms for reaching a compromise or resolving a grievance.

In your case, your request appears to belong first at WP:RFPP, and if you have requests that go beyond the scope of that venue, then perhaps at WP:AN or WP:ANI. An arbitration case is an unpleasant process and unsuited to this issue. A case generally takes several months and hundreds of person-hours from parties and arbitrators and focuses on issues that the community is incapable of resolving. Please see Arb premature for more information from our standard message in these cases.

Best, KevinL ( aka L235 · t · c) 04:53, 19 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for letting me know. Sorry if my request wasted any time. QLDer in NSW (talk) 07:23, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

Indigenous Voice to Parliament
Hi QLDer in NSW. Thanks for your work on linking the 2023 Australian Indigenous Voice referendum to the 2023 New Zealand general election. You might be interested in a Guardian article about NZ evangelist and anti co-governance activist Julian Batchelor's arguments being co-opted by opponents of the Indigenous Voice in Australia. Hope this helps. Andykatib 04:41, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

Disambiguation moves
Hi there, I see that you moved Matt Flynn (Australian footballer) to Matt Flynn (Australian rules footballer). One of the guidelines for disambiguation is that it should be as concise as it needs to be to be unambiguous. Generally for Aussie rules players, we use (footballer), unless there is another footballer, then (Australian footballer) unless there is another Australian footballer (of any code, even rugby). In this case (Australian footballer) was appropriate. Many sports have their own guidelines or commonly used terms, which may not be documented, but I find browsing the relevant categories will show you what most other disambiguated pages are named. I won't move it back, but please don't move any more unless there is true ambiguity with the current name. The-Pope (talk) 14:12, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

2023 AFL Grand Final
Hi, apologies I do not mean to be rude but so you know, Wikipedia is not a live-scores app. I know this because there have been cases where live scores have been reverted with explanations saying "we are an encyclopedia, not a live scores app". For the moment, I have removed the second quarter progressive scores, but feel free to update them at the end of each quarter. Thanks, Avatar5991 (talk) 05:42, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Opinion polling for the 2018 Victorian state election


A tag has been placed on Opinion polling for the 2018 Victorian state election requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://academy.financialafrik.com/the-red/victoria-state-election-results. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "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 deleted 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.

Attribution
I noticed you split a lot of polling sections into their own articles (e.g. Opinion polling for the 2010 Victorian state election was split from 2010 Victorian state election). However, you need to provide attribution in your edit summary when doing so. I suggest reading Copying within Wikipedia which has details on this. Please let me know if you have any questions!

November 2023
Hello. I have noticed that you edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! MrFlyingPies23 (talk) 20:47, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

73.27.191.165's reverts
Hi, you seem to have made many edits like Special:Diff/1173462906, without a summary (thanks, ) and at least one time overwriting an HTML comment expressing at very least one editor's opposition to this (Special:Diff/1173467553). Please do not continue without pointing to a consensus for performing these mass changes in your edit summary. I'd inform you about WP:CT/AP, but you have been informed earlier this year by who might want to have a look. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:00, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

position of Labor Left
Hi, I noticed that you'd edited the infobox of Labor Left to indicate that they were centre-left to left-wing. That's previously been removed by others (not me). I'd suggest it might be a good idea to find a citation to add to that claim or someone is going to come along and move it again. If you can find an academic source that would be the best sort.
